THE RED AND BLACK, FRIDAY. JULY 30, 1948.
First Coach Clinic .. .
(Continued from page 1)
Reid, Deavers, Sellers, Merola,
and
Vernarsky were augmented by backs
Brunson, Hodges, Mixon, Geri and
Marlclch. Mike Cooley and "Rabbit”
Smith, both ex-Bulldogs, also aided
in the demonstration.
Although the main feature of the
clinic was football instruction, infor
mation was given on track and field,
basketball, and athletic program
ming. Coach “Sug” Jordan supervis
ed the basketball division, while
Coach Spec Towns headed
work.
Actual lecturing was done beneath
the Bhade trees between Stegeman
and Sanford Field. After the lec
tures were finished, the group would
move over to Sanford, where the
squad went through the various for
mations and maneuvers shown by
Butts. Movies of games were shown
in Woodruff Hall, after the dinner
period.
From all Indications, continuation
of the clinic in years to come would
meet with whole-hearted approval by
the coaches attending the first ses
sion. If for nothing else than to hear
Wally Butts sprinkling caustic re
marks about games, players, etc.,
most coaches feel the effort to at
tend was worthwhile.
After explaining a particular play,
and having it demonstrated to per
fection by a squad out-of-practlce,
Butts casually said to the effect,
"We used this play with great suc
cess against North Carolina—it's a
good play—but we lost the game.”
Veterans Administration Starts

Amid the screech of new gears, the red tape machinery which will
eventually turn out dividend checks on National Service Life In

litical discussion with the society,
but no action was taken by the group.
A debate on the subject, “Resolv
ed: That All Southern States Should
Support Governor Thurmond for the
Presidency of the United States,”
formed the main program for the ev
ening. The affirmative, supported by
Dick Blakewood, Savannah, and Ger
ald Peacock, Macon, was declared
the winner. The negative position
was taken by Grady Plttard, Winter-
ville, and Colquitt Odom, Girard.
During the meeting letters were
read from gubernatorial candidates
Rabun, Thompson, and Talmadge,
stating their reactions to a Demos
thenian resolution calling for edu
cational standards to determine vot
ing eligibility. A letter was also read
from Charles Bloch, Macon, thanking
the society for its approval of his
actions at the Philadelphia conven
tion.
It was announced that no meeting
would be held next week, but the
program for the following week
will be a debate on the two leading
candidates for governor, Herman
Talmadge and M. E. Thompson.

The Starlight Terrace Club, an en
tertainment activity sponsored by the
Student Union, will re-open Its doors
with a gala floor show next Friday
at 9 p. m.
“Gala" is hardly the word for the
entertainment which is scheduled to
begin at 10:45. None other than the
inimitable Dean "Wild Bill” Tate
will be on hand to sing his favorite
song—"Wreck of the Old ’97.” Well,
the song ain’t much, as you students
of "b-bop" know, but then you’ve
probably never heard it done the way
“Wild Bill” does it either. Spike
Jones is a piker by comparison.
Actually the star of the show is
“Mozelle”—a dancing beauty from
Atlanta. Just so you won’t feel too
restricted, whistles and even cat-calls
will be in order. In addition to tap
dancing, she has a hoola number that
all students of "The Dance” should
see.
Joe McKee, University student,
will handle the vocals, while Warren
Little and the Collegians furnish mu
sic for dancing.
If you plan to attend, call 2081,

mission is $1 plus tax—couple or

who at any time held NSLI policies
for three months or more, will be
eligible for the dividend payments,
which will be distributed pro
portionately from a surplus fund of
approximately two billion dollars
which has accumulated since the in
stitution of the GI insurance pro
gram.
Veterans Administration officials
have made It clear that checks will
not be ready for distribution before
early 1950, since new personnel must
be employed to handle the division of
the surplus fund among the millions
of policy holders.
The amount of each check will
vary according to the age of the In
sured veteran, the amount of his pol
icy, and the time he has held it. Since
some 20 million policy holders
are involved, the task of determining
Individual payments will be time-
consuming.

The former senate president ac
cused Thompson of using the high
way department for political pur
poses, and of attempting to trade
highway work for votes.
Lawyer Bloch, who was vice-chair

Philadelphia convention, represent

concerning the legal Democratic

King suit before the United Supreme
Court.
The Georgia Bar Association nam

He later became chairman of its Ju
dicial council and succeeded Marvin
Allison in 1944 as president of the
association.
The Macon lawyer has participat
ed in both state and national poli
tics. In 1932 he was a delegate-at-
large to the Georgia Democratic Con
vention. Four years later he was
vice-chairman of the FDR nominat
ors for Georgia, the state unit of a
nation-wide fund-raising campaign
to elect Roosevelt foi a second term.
