Veteran Lineman Yelvington
Operates in 'Iron Man' Role
Whether Georgia klcks-ofT or re
ceives next Saturday against Miss.
State, senior Dick Yelvington will be
in there at his regular right tackle
slot for tho Bulldogs. The State game
will mark the 25th straight game
that Yelvington has started from Ills
tackle position since playing his first
game for the Red and Slack in the
194 9seaaon.
The big, blond Swede is one of
the few Georgia footballers this year
that Coach Itutts Is using both on
offense as well as defense.
FORMALLY, Dick had been play
ing only offensive right tackle, but
when an Injury plague hit the tackle
corps toward the end of last season's
play, he took over the defensive
duties In capable style. Till stype of
action prompted observers to men
tion Yelvington for a probable AU-
8EC berth, for as Coach Butts has
said of Dick, “Georgia has not had
a more conscientious lineman since
1 have been In Athens."
Yelvington first came to Georgia
aa a freshman in the summer of
1946 from Mainland High In Day
tona Dearh, Fla., where he was
named all-state tackle.
Before the 1946 season opened,
however, Dick was called Into the
Army und sent to Korea us part of
the occupation urmy. He spent the
next 18 months in the infantry, most
of the time in Korea, where he cap
tained the 24th Corps football team
in 1947.
KKTI UMNG to the Bulldogs in
time for the 1948 season, Dick let
tered at tackle while playing his
first season of college football. He
was used as the regular offensive
right tackle during the 1949 cam
paign, and was alternate-captain of
the squad during the 1950 season.
This season will mark the fourth
year as a letterman for the big Flo
ridian who has played on three of
Georgia’s howl squads; the Gator
Bowl In 1948, the Orange Bowl in
'49, and last year’s Presidential Cup
game.
The startling play of this blond
glan4 will be awfully hard to forget
for quite a long time.

1951 Bulldog Linebackers
Among Lightest in Nation
Due to the injury to Derwent
Langley, and the shifting of Art
DeCarlo to end, Georgia probably
fields the two lightest college line
backers In the nation.
Francis DePietro, who played of
fensive fullback for the freshman
team last year, and Tony Caprara,
who was the regular defensive half
back of the ’60 ’dogs, have been put
at the linebacker posts. Caprara
weighs in at 178, and DePietro tips
the scales at a scant 179.
Mississippi State, Georgia's op
ponents tomorrow, possess two of
the finest linebackers in the confer
ence. The two stalwarts are Joe
Fortunato, a fullback, and Jack By
ron, a converted guard. Both are ex
perienced veterans of SEC football.
