The injury-riddled Georgia foot-
i hall eleven engages a strong edition
of Miami University Hurricanes to
night in Burdino (Orange Bowl
: Stadium in Miami.
The Bulldogs, 37 players strong
{ with a party including coaches, news
papermen, managers and trainers,
j entralnod from Athens Wednesday
(afternoon at 6:30 o'clock, reached
Macon at 11 o’clock, then changed
to Pullman accomodations for the
long leg to Jacksonville and thence to
Miami.
Mike Cooley, regulnr Georgia
center, was left behind because of
n bad knee injury suffered In Tues
day’s workout. Either freshman
Gerry Deleskt or junior Frank Plant
will start in his place.
Blanton May Not I’lay
Whether Brooker Blanton, recent
ly returned star fullback holdover
from the 1940 Bulldog squad, would
play or not was u question In itself.
Blanton was called to Jacksonville
on u matter pertaining to his former
Navul service the first of this week,
but expected to Join the Bulldogs
for their third gamo of the season.
Llttlo or nothing has been learned
of the strength of tho Hurricane ag
gregation, except that they slammed
Chuttunoogu four touchdowns to one
last Friday evening. A tailback
named Zucker and center Levitt were
touted ns Coach Eddie Dunn's most
lotcnt performers, but a glance over
the Miami roster, told that only one
of the Miamians was 17, whereas
half of the Georgia squad are that
age. Thu Hurricanes average 22
years of age, 200 pounds in the line,
and 185 in the bnckfiold, which Is
a complete edge on Georgia lu every
department.

In Brief. . .
A giant red oak that has stood
near the Phi Kappa building for 150
years was blown to the ground, for
tunately in a direction opposite from
the building. The second oldest tree
on the campus, a 200-year-old oak
that stands near Milledge Hall, was
seriously damaged when Its top was
shorn off during a rain storm two
weeks ago.
Some very old elms, planted by
Berckmans, the noted German horti
