Tankmen Seem Improved
Georgia's swimming team'

last season, but this does not
guarantee a better record be
cause Florida, Alabama, and
Vanderbilt are expected to
be bolstered by their crops
of sophomores.
The aquatic Bulldogs had a
9-5 dual meet won-lost mark
in 1963 and finished third in
the SEC meet behind Florida
and Alabama.
Under the direction of veter
an mentor Dr. B. W. (Bump)
Gahrielsen; the swimmers have

time has come to wrap up the
loose ends and leave.
It lias been fun working on
the “South's Pre-Eminent
College Newspaper” - some
times. And it has always
been a challenge.
Last Thursday I was think
ing of things to be thankful
for, and I came up with the im
minent opening of the UGA
Coliseum, the acquisition of a
new athletic director for Geor
gia, and a freshman football
game that draws 34,000 fans on
a dreary Thanksgiving day.
I request the faithful readers
of this page to remember that
intercollegiate athletics do not
end with the last football game
and that basketball is not the
only winter quarter sport.
Wrestling, gymnastics, and
swimming need spectators too.
I want to thank the faith
ful members of my staff,
Rusty Boggs, Bale Ousts, and
Murray Poole, for their as
sistance this quarter. Rusty
was responsible for our most
accurate R&B Picks. I am
to blame for our lousiest
ones.

rain and mud. only to precede
their varsity counterparts by
two days in a 1 4-3 loss to Tech.

had to chase a high snap from
center and was trapped in the
end zone for a safety.
Paul Handmacher blocked
and recovered a Tech punt at
the Engineer's 33. Bob Etter
booted a 25-yard field goal to
give the Rullpups a 3-2 half
