The West Georgian. (Carrollton, Ga.) 1933-current, October 16, 1934, Image 3
Athletics at Weet Georgia, even
at this early stage of the school year,
are off to a good start- Student man
agers and assistants have already been
selected for the various activities by
Coach Braswell. These managers have
arranged the schedules and the sports
action of the college life is moving
forward rapidly. The students have
picked their favorite sports and are
using them for their individual de
velopment.
Tennis is the most popular at the
present if numbers enrolled are any
sign. There are thirty girls and
twenty boys enrolled in this section.
An inter-mural tournament has been
announced for the boys by Manager
Ford to begin within the next few
days. Harris Hay and Beverly Camp
bell, champion and runner-up of last
year, are back and seem to be the fa
vorites.
Touch football, one of the ijow
sporjs, is attracting wide-spread inter
est smpng the boys- Thirty-six men
were present at the first practice, mak
ing four teams. The first gadie was
played between Bill Brown’s Trojans
and the Bamblers, led by Ovid Davis.
T4p one activity that has caused the
most enthusiasm is group dancing. A
large number of the women supported
this activity to get a chance to dance
with our Greek God director. (Bou
quet-) Group dancing includes ball
room dancing, modernized square
dancing and the grand march. Under
the able leadership of the coach and
managers, Mary Merritt and Kress
Entnekin, the group are learning in
tricate steps. They are hoping for
the Carioca soon.
The manly art of self-defense is be
ing practiced here at West Georgia
now- Seventeen men have reported
b*pisev -Manager Varmer has an
nounced tournament matches to begin

West Georgia Students Are Cordially Welcomed
SPORTS
Under the able leadership of Ed
Neely, veteran amateur wrestler, the
das of wrestling has started with a
bang. The class promises to be one of
the largest of tho athletic enterprises
and its first meetings have been' well
attended. The class meets three times
a week. If real talent develops, Neely
promises to train those for inter-col
legiate matches.
Golf practice has not begun yet be
cause the drainage of the course has
not been completed. Coach Braswell
hopes to have the course ready for in
ter-collegiate matches by next spring.
No equipment for handball, soccer or
fencing has been procured as yet, but
there are a large number of students
interested in these sports and they
will begin in the near future.
Tumbling has attracted a good bit
of attention, most of the students
never having seen this activity. A
number have expressed their desire to
‘ try” it.
Ping-pong is one of the more popu
lar sports. Although this game waß
new to a majority, many of the novices
are becoming proficient in it.
Twenty-three volley vail players, led
by managers Fred Williams and Tom
Harding, have been practicing hard
for the opening of their intra-mural
league. The various halls of the dor
mitory are forming teams for compe
tition. A town boys’ team has also
been formed.
Among other sports at West Geor
gia College croquet has been organ
ized. Croquet is a very interesting
and scientific game. We hope to cre
ate a lot of interest in it and expect
to have tournaments toward the end
of the quarter.
Fielding Towns has been elected
manager and Ma.cy Murphy as public
ity chairman. About thirty students
have chosen croquet as their activity
in physical education.
