Coach Hansard used a number of subs, both in the backfield and the line, and they played well. Canton's eleven has now scored 125 points to their opponent's to- tal of 18 points in five games. Running Story of the Game Canton, defending east goal, kicked off. Ranburne runner made very short run back. Ranburne got a short gain at right end with Jones carrying the ball.

Garner then made a long end run, with the help of fine blocking, for a touchdown. Garner tried a pass for the extra point but it was incomplete. Score Canton 6, Ranburne 0.

Jones By HERBERT BUFFINGTON Reinhardt’s intramural basket- ball program got under way Friday night with two very interesting games inaugurating the season. In the girl's game, the Tallulahs de- feated the Choctows 31-23; and in the boy's game, the Seminoles nos- ed out the Mohawks 14-11. Wyatt was the big gun for the Tallulahs with 25 points to her credit. Smith led the Choctows' sco- ring with ten points. Carpenter shot 12 of the Se- minoles' 14. points. Spense led the Mohawks with six points. The student body at Reinhardt is divided into tribes. The girls are divided into the Choctows and Tal- lulahs and the boys into the Mo- hawks and Seminoles. There are first and second teams in each tribe. They compete in various in- door sports. A victory for the first team counts two points and for the se- cond team, one point. Four basket- ball games are played by the first teams, and three by the second team. Each first team victory counts two points, and a second team victory counts one point. The Tallulahs and Seminoles each have a two point lead over their opponents. The first teams again play tonight. The second teams play their first games Wed- nesday. and Notre Dame were winners picked last week, crossed, here are this week's picks: GA. TECH—VANDERBILT: Everybody and his this one. Mr. Alexander and his Ragtime eleven to TECH-14, Vanderbilt-13. With our fingers brother will be at win by a hair—or KENTUCKY—GEORGIA: Sorry, but we just can't see the Bulldogs licking the Wildcats. For better or worse, KENTUCKY, by a touch- down and an extra point. NOTRE DAME—NAVY: The Fighting Irish have won three games by the skin of their teeth now but we see a decisive win for the South Benders this time. NOTRE DAME. AUBURN—MANHATTAN COLLEGE: Seems to be the style of the day for these Dixie elevens to mop up with the Yankees. AUBURN, by a couple of touchdowns. TULANE—U. OF NORTH CAROLINA: Both elevens have some good ones under their belts but in our crystal ball we see the Green Wave, TULANE, drowning the Cavaliers by two touchdowns. CARNEGIE TECH—N. Y. U.: Bill Kern's Tartans to run wild. CAR NEGIE TECH, all the way. PRINCETON—COLUMBIA: On a plain unadulterated hunch, we’re picking Lou Little’s team to be on top of the heap. COLUMBIA 12-0. TENNESSEE—ALABAMA: We purposely saved this baby for the last because IT IS a tough one--and we do mean tough. Lots could be said for both teams but we believe the Volunteers have a little too much of last year's championship team still with them. We can’t see the Red Elephants beating that outfit. TENNESSEE. ing Center are as follows: STUMPTOWN TIGERS N. E. Fackler, George Doss, J. H. Bagwell, Foute Jones, Charlie Cobb and Ed Garlington. MIGHTY BRUISERS Ernest Turner, John Barton, Girl Cagers Work Hard; Recruits Show Improvement One of the largest high school football crowds ever seen in this section is expected to be present tonight as the Canton High Green ies meet the invading Dalton High Catamounts at Harmon Field here at 7:15 P.

Howard Victor As Canton Tennis Aces Down Reinhardt Canton tennis team defeated Reinhardt Thursday two matches to one in the second of a series of matches between the two schools. Ray Howard avenged his prev- ious defeat at the hands of Rod- ney Stanton by downing the Rein- hardt ace in a long, hard-fought match 6-0, 4-6, 6-4. McGriff and Buffington were at a one-set-all deadlock when dark- ness postponed their match. Owen Buford, Reinhardt, defeated Alton Holbrook, Canton. Addison Howard, Canton, was a 4-6, 8-6, 6-0 winner over Hodges Chapman of Reinhardt. Sideline Slants on the Canton-Ranburne football game: The classy running of loose-hipped Bill Garner. He scored all three touchdowns. Bill had plenty of natural speed and elusiveness to start with. Coach Vic Hansard worked hard with him all last year and this—and now the results of all this work are beginning to show up.. . “Doc” Ellison is showing improvement and is a big help in the line. Doc accidentally fell on an Alabama boy Friday night and the lad had to be helped off the field to the bench—where he stayed. 230-odd pounds will do that, you know... Fred Jack Goss called Canton signals in a heady manner Friday night. He mixed reverses, passes and line plays with skill that kept the Ranburne eleven guessing . . . What was the matter with the Canton High band at the half. Everybody likes to hear their swell music between the periods but none was heard at the half Friday night. Maybe their hands were cold? . . . Coach Hansard used plenty of reserves Friday night but they probably won’t get a chance to go in tonight against the Dalton Catamounts . . . Big Ralph McFarland, who hurt his hand recently, got in for a few minutes at the Canton- Ranburne game. Felt Mitchell, Olin Doss, Roy Holcombe, Gyp White and George Wallenhaupt.

Power. By RALPH D. OWEN With three weeks practice al- ready behind them and another month until their first game. Coach Carroll has had his girls' basket- ball team working out twice daily. One practice session is held during the noon hour and another after school. The noon hour practice is being held for the benefit of girls riding the buses and who can't practice after school. The girls are working hard with plenty of enthusiasm and results can already be seen. By the time the basketball season opens it can be expected that Coach Carroll will have a good girls’ team ready for play. Since only three of last year’s regulars returned this fall, Coach Carroll is having to build practi- cally a new team around them. A number of the new girls are al ready showing basketball ability and with another month's coaching on fundamentals should develop rapidly into good players. Some of the new girls who are showing promise are Marjorie and Margaret Tippens. Marjorie is working at forward position and Margaret at guard. Reba Hill- house is another guard that may see action this year. Other guards include Frances Wright, Frances Mullinax, Elizabeth Green, and Aline Vaughn. Coach Carroll stated a number of games have been scheduled and that he would announce the sched- ule at a later date when more com- plete. VITAL STATISTICS ON THE GAME Kickoff time: 7:15 p. m.
