Bears burn
Jackson nets
The Griffin Bears burned the
nets for 90 points last night in
Jackson but Coach Frank Hin
son was happier with Griffin’s
defense and the play of reserves
than he was the massive point
production.
“Good defense and excellent
scoring from the bench made
the difference,” Coach Hinson
said.
The final score was Griffin 90
and Jackson 49.
All of Griffin’s players saw at
least two quarters of action
except Richard Sanders, who is

Tech, Ga. Frosh
clash Thursday
ATLANTA (UPI) -It comes
a week before the Georgia-Geor
gia Tech varsity clash and to
some is just as important a foot
ball game.
The annual Tech - Georgia
freshman Thanksgiving Day
Classic is played for charity be
fore one of the largest crowds
for a frosh athletic event in the
country, and this year pits two
unbeaten teams.
The Baby Jackets, playing
host for Thursday’s game at
Grant Field, are 5-0. The Bull
pups are 4-0. It’s the first time
since 1957 that both freshmen
teams enter their intra - state
finale without a loss or tie.
Everyone, including newsmen
and university officials, buys
his ticket for this one. The pro
ceeds go to the Shrine-sponsored
Scottish Rite Hospital for Crip
pled Children in Decatur. A
turnout of 40,000 is expected.
Freshmen are eligible to play
on varsity teams for the second
season, and the strongest play
ers have been moved up to bol
ster the Tech Yellow Jackets
and Georgia Bulldogs.

Some university officials be
lieve the Southeastern Con
ference when it meets next
month may move to eliminate
inter-collegiate freshmen com
petition. Others downplay this
possibility or argue that Tech
and Georgia would continue to
field junior varsity teams which
could meet next Thanksgiving
Day.
The Baby Jackets have an
explosive defense which has
capitalized on the other teams’
mistakes. The Tech freshmen
have recovered 18 fumbles in
their five games and intercepted
12 passes, returning three for
touchdowns.
“This defense has given up
more yardage than any since
I’ve been here,” said Tech
Coach Dick Bestwick. “But it’s
been directly responsible for
about eight touchdowns.”
“We have 13 different players
who have recovered fumbles and
nine who have intercepted
passes,” Bestwick said. “That’s
22 players that have been in on
the big plays.”
Georgia Coach Doc Ayers also
praises his defense even though
it’s missing Boler and Curtis

Price, who played with the var
sity until he was injured.
“We’ve given up a lot of yard
age, but most of it has been
between the 20’s and our defense
has given us the ball in good
field position,” Ayers said. “We
haven’t given up many points.”
The Bullpups offense is built
around the running of fullback
Al Pollard, who has averaged
5.4 yards per carry, and May
field Williams and Jesse Dorsey.
Williams has rushed for 273
yards and Dorsey for 231.
The Baby Jackets, winners of
five of the last six Thanksgiving
Day games, will be led on of
fense by Pat Moriarty, if he is
released from the varsity team.
Moriarity rushed for 345 yards
in three games before being
called up.
