Alabama * 'Bi^ Three’ Sends Georgia
To Crushing Defeat as Tempers Flare
Alabama's Crimson Tide, undefeat
ed In Southeastern Conference play
and second only to Vanderbilt, whose
record is, 6-0, sent Georgia crashing
to defeat with a 99-76 win in Wood
ruff Hall Saturday night.
Jerry Harper, the Tide's speedy
6 7 center, rewrote Alabama's indi
vidual scoring record by pumping 43
points through the nets for the night
to better his own record of 41, set
against l.ouisiana College last week.
The huge center’s hands were often
above the basket as he continually
ripped the cords and boosted his 25.S
per game average.
Forward Henry Cabaniss, one of
seven sophomores on the Bulldog
squad, erupted for 20 points to pace |
the losers, followed by Curtis Glea-
ton and Morris Dinwiddie, who tal- j
lied 11 points each. George Linn and
Dennis O’Shea, other two members
of Alabama’s ’’Big Three,” contrib
uted 16 murkers each.
In the early moments of the game
the Bulldogs forged into a quick lead,
but just as quickly Alabama erased
the deficit and took command them
selves. By halftime there was a 19-
point difference, the Tide leading.
Georgia played much better ball
in the second half as it held the vis
itors to 47 points while making 42
of its own. In the waning moments
of the contest tempers flared and
players from both benches streamed
onto the court. Order was restored
within a matter of minutes, however.
Alabama hit an amazing 49 per
cent of its Bhots from the floor while
the Bulldogs could manage only 29 %
per cent.

Coach Tabs Senior Swimmer
Most Versatile Man on Team

Perhaps the most under rated member on any of Georgia s ath

Swimming Coach B. W. (Bump)
Gabrielsen will chorus a hearty amen

to Gabrielsen, and for this reason
the three-year letterman never knows
which events he will enter until the
time of the meet.
Last year Arnold had three third
place finishes in the conference meet,
and already, this year, he has been
instrumental in the four victories re
corded by the Bulldogs. In his last
outing, against Vanderbilt last Fri
day night, Val was a member of the
300-yard medley relay team that cap
tured first place and won the 200-
yard breast stroke with a time of
2:43.0.
Although he usually swims better
in the sprints, Arnold is more fre
quently used in the breaststroke and
the backstroke events. Against Geor
gia Tech, however, Coach Gabrielsen
allowed him to enter the sprints be
cause he especially wanted to
compete with some Engineer aces.
Arnold responded by copping both
the 50-yard and the 100-yard free
style events to lead the Bulldogs’
seventh straight dual-meet win over
Tech.
Arnold’s father, Norman P. Arn
old, captained the mermen of Brown
University in 1928 and 1929.

16 points from the foul line, and
ripping the cords on sets and layups.
The story would have been the
same as any other night during the
losing span had it not been for the
supporting cast of Henry Cabaniss,
Curtis Gleaton, Bill Ensley and Don
Hartsfield, who were teamed with
Dinwiddie at the opening whistle.
Ray Allen, only sub used by Law-
son. grabbed part of the laurels when
Cabaniss was forced to sit out a
third of the game with four fouls.
Ensley Scores 21
Ensley found the range for 21
points. 13 of them in the second half,
mostly on lazy hook shots. Harts
field played havoc with Florida’s de
fense with his ball hawking tactics,
and netted 14 points. While he was
on the court, Cabaniss ruled both
backboards, and dumped in 12 points.
Gleaton netted 13 points and played

Florida narrowed the margin to
nine points with five minutes remain-
ling in the game, but Ensley and Din

with a bucket each.
Bob Embrick, near the top in the
SEC scoring race, was held to 12
points, and highly rated Jim Zinn
could only pump in seven. Joe Hobbs
carried the scoring load for Florida
with 24 points.
