The word is out that the Canton football team will be hardboiled this year. “We’ll play fair but we aren’t taking any thing off anybody," one of them said to me. school alumnae team ended in a 6-6 tie. The Greenies scored first early in the game and it seemed that was going to be sufficient to win, but late in the game the ex- gridders broke lose for a touch- down to tie the score. The ex-grid stars won the warm-up game last year by three touchdowns. The game was not regulation but more of a scrimmage for the high school Tribune Sports Editor No need to wait ‘till October for your World Series fun. You can see just as much action, dash and fierce play tomorrow afternoon as the Canton baseball nine tangles with the Cartersville Merchants at Coggins Field, 3 p. m., Saturday afternoon in the second of a best- four-out-of-seven game series to decide the win- ner of the 1939 team arranged by Coach sard. Han- LENTY OF bruised bodies and sore shoulders after the prac tice game Friday night between the Canton High school football team and the ex-Canton High grid stars. The game was a 6-6 deadlock and capable observers who played for the grads reported the Green- ies have a good backfield, fair line, with spots in the line needing to be strengthened. "A good hard plunger in good condition could have made yardage at places in the school line,” one of the town players told us... Oustanding in the game for Canton were Ralph McFarland, giant tackle, and Wil- liam Garner and Frank Fain in the backfield . . . Coach Hansard nod- ded his head in approval of Fain’s blocking . . . Looking Backward in the Sports Mirror: Five Years Ago —Buford Shoemakers defeated Canton 9-2. Three Years Ago— Canton defeats Spalding High in grid opener 6-0. One Year Ago— Bremen High downs Canton High Greenies 20-0 in first football game of season. The team looked much better this year than at the same time a year ago. The blocking was except- ionally good. The line seems to be weak at times but with a little backing up from the backfield should be good despite its light- ness. The center of the line held well and the town eleven never seemed to be able to gain at that point. The Greenies scored their touch- down on a sweeping end run behind good blocking. Jack Hamby scored for the alumnae on another end run. Both teams made several long gains through the line but were never able to get away from the backfield to score. Goss, quarter- back for the Greenies, is living up to expectations and called his plays half race. League race. Cartersville won the first half of race with wins and defeats. the 12 no Can- ton defeated Douglasville in Atlanta Satur- day 12 to 6 to cop the second well In during the scrimmage. a general excellence contest. two Georgia 4-H club boys, Fred Peterson, of Montgomery county, and Hugh Westbrooke, of Hall county, have been awarded free trips to the National 4-H Congress in December. Club The Bartow diamond artists won in Atco last Sunday and now hold an edge of one game over the lo- cal sluggers. Manager Lee Evans of the Can- ton team has announced that he will have the best line-up posible in the field for the Saturday game. The starting nine will probably be: Williams, 2b; Fitts, 3b; Tipton, or Payne, c; McNally, If; Watkins, cf; Parris, Iss; Stover or Kelley, rf; Ashe, 1b; and Hansard, p. Buncombe Morris or Bacon will probably get the Merchants’ start- ing mound assignment to oppose Vic Hansard. Umpires will be Hilley at the plate and Stuffy Stewart watch- ing the bases.

Farm Briefs By Jack Wooten Extension Editor According to the weekly cotton region bulletin from the United States Department of Agriculture for the week ending August 29, slow to fairly good progress is being made in picking cotton. There was rather heavy shedding, however, due to recent excessive rain, and also some deterioration in quality. The report says that conditions are still favorable for weevil activity. Two outstanding 4-H club boys and one of Georgia's leading coun- ty agents have been awarded out- of-state trips, as a result of their achievement in 4-H club work. The boys are Fred Peterson, of Montgomery county, in south Georgia, and Hugh Westbrook, of Hall county, in the northern sec- tion of the state. The winning a- gent is M. Gordon Nessmith, of Ware county. The free trips for the boys are to the National 4-H Club Congress, to be held in Chi- cago in December, while the coun- ty agent will attend the meeting of the County Agents' Associa- tion, in Chicago, also. At the same time, 32 other 4-H club boys were given medals for having best all- round records. G. I. Johnson, Extension agri- cultural engineer, reports the de- velopment of a small one-row tractor that should be useful on small farms. He says it handles easier in short rows and in odd- shaped fields. Special equipment for planting is not necessary as is the case with the two-row planter required in using the large trac- tors, Johnson declares. Canton Plays Copperhill Tonight In Opening Tilt Of 11-Game Schedule Tennessee Team Added to Tough Greenie Schedule IN HIGH GEAR By Sords oHARRY PANNING NEW YORK GIAxJ CATCHER, RATED AT LEAST By THE GIANT FANS AS THE BEST BACK- Stop IAI THE- NATIONAL LEAGUE ICAN, 1100! /WotX DOG!A DOUBLE HEADER TODAY/ Res Tie HARDEST WORKING CATCHER IN THE LEAGUE, HAVING STEPPED BEHIND THE PLATE MORE OF TEA THAN ANY OF Ais RIALS TAIS IS MARRY’S PEAK SEASON IN EVER DPPARIMEAT OF FLAT Canton High School will open its 1939 football schedule one week earlier than at first announced. The Greenies will meet the Cop- perhill High School Indians here tonight at 7 o’clock on Harmon Field. Copperhill has long been known for its husky teams, and this year boasts a line of heavyweights that is said to average 200 pounds. This is also the opening game for the Indians but little is known as to just how strong they are. How- ever, they usually have a good football team at Copperhhill and a good team is expected to face the local eleven tonight. The tilt tonight is not being classed as a warm-up game, but has been added to the schedule as another tough foe for the Greenies. This gives Canton an eleven-game schedule for the season, more games than the team usually plays. Every game on the schedule is with a strong high school team, and fans can expect to see the team put forth its best efforts in every game. There can be no let up. Coach Hansard’s five-day head- ache was ended last Friday when his star center, Aaron Hagin, re- ported back to school. Aaron left school last Saturday week to go to work in North Carolina, but soon caught up with his work and was back in school last Friday. He proved his value to the team in a warm-up game last Friday night. The Canton mentor announced his team was riddled with injur- ies this week, but that he expected most of them to be in condition to play by Frday night. After a long hard work-out Monday, the work was lightened Tuesday and will re- main light the rest of the week un- til Friday. Those injured this week but expected to be bac kin the line- up by Friday are: Ozier Payne, Jame Chadwick, Felton Dunn, Da- vid Bottoms, Tairlton Frady and Gus Quarles. The starting line-up against Cop- perhill will probably be Hagin at center, Chadwick and Quarles at guard posts, Ellison and McFar- land as tackles, and Bell and Bot- toms holding down the ends. The backfield will include Goss, quar- terback, Curtis and Garner, half- backs, and Fain, fullback. Band director Buford Smith an- nounced that the band will be on hand to play at the game. It is doubtful, however, that the new uniforms for the band will ar- rive in time for this game. The scheduling of the Copper- hill game was a surprise move by Coach Hansard as it had been pre- viously announced that the Can- ton eleven would open with Bre- men High School.

The July fig- ure was seven percent larger than the estimate for June, but was 12 percent smaller than the $609,000,- 000 reported for July of last year. Something to think about: Many farmers who have been using Aus- trian winter peas or vetch have doubled or tripled their yields per acre ... Austrian winter peas or vetch respond readily to fertilizers carrying liberal amounts of phos- phorus. Agronomists recommend 300 to 400 pounds of superphos phate or its equivalent, if the preceding crop was not fertilized with a fertilizer high in phospho- rus ... Rotations that include win- ter and summer legumes for soil conservation and improvement are essential for agricultural develop- ment in Georgia ... In the last hundred years the production per workers engaged in agriculture in the United States has increased threefold. BALANCED FERTILIZER| All crops respond to a balanced fertilizer, and if they are not planted on land where good amounts of complete fertilizer were used in the rotation, a mineral fertilizer should be applied when the crop is planted.
