BACK IN SHAPE
Cager signs
grant here
John Fraley, a 6-5. 195 lbs
sophomore recently signed a
basketball grant-in-aids at
Georgia
Coach Ken Rosemond tells
this story
He approached me and
told me he was going to transfer
from Cincinnati and might be
interested in coming here We
had tried to recruit him when
he was coming out of high
school and I guess he remem
bered us from then "
Fraley Is transfering for
personal reasons, Hosemond
said
As a freshman starter
there, he averaged close to 2f
points a game Starting on);
nine times during his sopho
more year, he netted for an
average of 12 points a game
Fraley, from Middletown,
Ohio, played ball at Middletown
High and broke most of Jerry
I.ucas scoring records, averag
ing around 35 points a game as
a senior He posted All-Ameri
can honors, making him one of
the most sought after prep
stars in the nation
Fraley, with his height, is
tall enough to play forward, but
with his shotting ability, quick
ness, and agility, can play
guard as well
Coach Rosemond has not
decided where to play him yet
Due to a NCAA eligibility rul
ing. Fraley will have to sit out
his first year here After that,
he will have two years of var
sity ball, ahead of him

Clemson came into Sanford
Stadium Saturday boasting the
new look for 1970 A new head
coach, no excess fat on its play
ers. a new offense, and new
helmets
The helmets proudly dis
played a set of tiger paws in
honor of the Clemson nick
name Whether these paws were
supposed to make the Tiger
backs run faster is still in
doubt, but most of the fast run
ning was done by the Clemson
opponent
Georgia's backfield corps
did not paint bulldog paws on
their helments but they did run
fast and did it often Robert
Honeycutt. Julian Smiley. Jack
Montgomery, and Donnie Allen
tore through the Clemson line
throughout the afternoon
THE GAME was a real test
for the Bulldogs, winless in six
games The Dogs had to prove
themselves and did. For Julian
Smiley the game was a test for
his injured foot. Smiley, a 200-
pound iunior from Savannah,
nad broken his foot in spring
practice and played only briefly
against Tulane.
Early in the second quarter
Smiley was called on and deliv
ered in convincing fashion. The
talented tailback carried the
pigskin eight times, picking up
50 yards and scoring one touch
down on a 20-yard scamper
Smiley credited the 38-0
Georgia win to the winning
attitude of the players.' He
stated that Coach Dooley "has
worked the team hard and this
cut out some of the costly mis
takes made in the Tulane
game
Coach Pancoast is great and
has the backfield working real
well together, but the differ
ence this year is the attitude of
the players — they want to
win.''
SMILEY, a personable Edu
cation major, is looking to the
Mississippi State game on Sat
urday with optimism but with
respect State surprised Van
derbilt. 206. on Saturday night
and may be primed for another
upset aganst Georgia. Some
observers feel that the Dogs
may be caught looking ahead to
the Old Miss game and Archie
Manning, but Smiley feels that
this will not happen
"We are just playing them
one at a time. In this confer
ence if you don't play them one
at a time you will get beat", he
noted
Tryouts slated
Any person interested in
tryout out for the University
wrestling team should get in
touch with coach Frank Keller
at the Coliseum His phone
number is 542-1515 The dealine
for tryouts is Nov. 1
Last year, his first as wres
tling coach here. Keller led his
charges to a sparkling 11-5 re
cord.
| In defense
| of one’s picks

Along with the simply wonderful experience that
can be garnered from this job, one of the plethora of
other advantages is the vested right to defend one s
weekly picks during football season So here goes.
Georgia vs. Mississippi State. At the first of the
season, I said that Georgia could already put two vic
tories away in their hip pocket But State and Kentuc
ky have both convinced me of my folly. Coach Charley
Shira's have won two more games than anyone expect
ed of them at this point. This week, however. Georgia
is confident and capable and should win by about 21-10.
Both squads are coming off important wins so don't be
surprised if the game is decided by a field goal.
Tigers in a daze
PISTOL SPUTTERS
Maravich not impressive
By RICHARD JUDY
Staff writer
Fete Maravich. the heralded
all-Ume college scoring leader
from L.S.U., proved that repu
tation alone does not necessari
ly reap success in the ranks of
professional basketball
The proof was seen last week
when Maravich and the Atlanta
Hawks kicked off the 1970 sea
son against the rebuilding Bos
ton Celtics.
The Hawks lost the contest
121-106 and played as poorly as
the score attests. The team's
physical and mental condiUon-
ing was so far below par that
afterwards Coach Richie Guer
in said. T knew we would be
bad before we ever went out
there.''
One of the many discourag
ing factors of the Hawk per
formance was the sloppy play
by rookies such as Pete Marav
ich and Georgia's Herb White
Maravich did little to convince
Richie Guerin that he was cap
able of living up to his enor
mous cash value
MARAVICH was responsible
for a grand total of 10 tumo-
mss

vers in the game which makes
him a prime target for the
blame of the loss Actually, all
of the rookies including White.
Valley, Riley, and Christian
performed poorly
Nevelheless, Maravich's
performance was the most no
ticed of the fledgling members
of the team for obvious rea
sons When the famed Pistol
realized that his passes were
consistently falling into the
wrong hands, he began applying
the scoring methods of his col
lege days.
This method consisted of
dribbling the entire length of
the court and shooting Unfor
tunately, Maravich's shots
were rarely on target
Since the Hawks are consi
dered one of the most balanced
teams in professional basket
ball. Maravich should have a
bright future if he can learn the
basic fundamentals of team
work This would necessitate
the casting aside of all ball
hogging offensive efforts
When questioned about his
initial performance in the pros.
Maravich said. You saw it. I
was horrible '
Nevertheless. Maravich's
less than glowing introducUon
to pro fans does not overshadow
his undeniable potential Re
gardless of his potential, how
ever, the phrase "Pete Marav
ich and the Atlanta Hawks”
will be used sarcastically by the
fans until he proves different
Georgia Tech vs. Clemson. Clemson broke out of its :
losing slump againt Peach State football teams by
handling the Yellow Jackets last year. But the Tigers
will still be reeling from the pasting they received in
Athens. Tech's defense has apparently spent too much
time reading their press clippings. The Jackets have
given up an average of 18 points per game while the
offense, a sore spot last year, has registered 25.7 per
outing Hootie Ingram impressed me as a man who
would refuse to let a team quit on him so it will be a
grudging 24-15 triumph for Eddie McAshan and his play
mates
Archie just ain't enough
Alabama vs. Ole Miss. Archie Manning is impres
sive. In fact, the whole Rebel offense is impressive
and so is the defense But the defense impresses you in
a different way. They give up too many points. It takes
more than a Manning to beat a team like ’Bama and
the tide will prove just that for the second straight
year,28;20.
Florida vs. N.C. State. The Gators will rediscover
their scoring punch after a dismal drubbing by Ala
bama last week and kayo the Wolfpack by a 35-14 mar
gin.
Wait till next year
Auburn vs. Kentucky. Wildcat coach Johnny Ray
has completely captured my sentiments and I'll be
rooting for his felines to whip Auburn's. But it won t
happen, at least not this year, because the Plainsmen
are just too explosive. About 38-17 worth.
Vanderbilt vs. North Carolina. North Carolina beat
Kentucky 20-10 Ole Miss beat Kentucky 20-17. There
fore the only logical conclusion is that the Tarheels will
trip Vandy 21-7.
UCLA vs. Texas. The Bruin had all they could han
dle with Oregon State and Pittsburgh. Yes, Pitts
burgh. Texas should win. 38-13.
Stanford vs Purdue Stanford has Jim Plunkett and
Purdue does not have Mike Phipps Stanford coasts.
31-7.
Texas A&M vs. Michigan. The Aggies werebattered
senseless by Ohio State last week and Michigan will
give them more of the same,35-7.
Oklahoma State vs. Missouri. After State took care
: of Houston last week and Mizzou was reduced to sham
bles by the Air Force, one is tempted to go with Lhe
Cowboys. But Dan Devine's boys are more talented
: than thev showed against the Airmen and are favored,
i 21-17.
