PAGE TWO NORTH GEORGIA TRIBUNE FRIDAY, OCT. 27, 1939 CANTON MEETS WINDER IN RETURN GAME HERE TONIGHT RECORD CROWD SEES CANTON GO DOWNINDEFEAT Bowling News Souther and Red Bonner Give Fine Exhibition Of Running and Blocking Before the largest crowd of the season, the Dalton High Cata- mounts Friday night defeated Can- ton by a lopsided 27 to 9 score and smashed Canton’s undefeated record. The Dalton gridmen scored in every quarter and capitalized on a case of Canton jitters in the first minutes of the game. The Greenies, apparently haunted by the spectre of the 77-6 defeat they suffered last year, fumbled the ball deep in their own territory and gave the Catamounts the ball and Sou- ther rammed through for a touch- down. Canton was not up to standard but there is no doubt that Dalton outclassed the Cherokee eleven. Tricky running and hard blocking kept the Greenies dizzy on both offense and defense. Outstanding for Canton was Jack Goss in the backfield and MacFarland and Da- vid Bottoms did fine work in the forward wall. Souther and Bonner stood out for the Catamounts. Easley look- ed well in passing. Goss scored the only Canton touchdown after the Greenies had recovered a fumble deep in Dalton territory. Bill Garner added the extra point for the Greenies. Running Story of the Game Largest crowd of the season was present. Both teams went through warm-ups and signal-calling on field with plenty of pep. Both sides of the field were lined with spectators, a large number of Dal- ton supporters being present. Wea- ther was fine with no perceptible wind. First Quarter Canton co-captains Goss and Garner met Anderson, the Dalton captain at the center of the field and Referee Richards tossed the coin. Souther kicked off for Dalton de- fending the east goal. A long high kick that Fain, Canton halfback, ran back about five yards. A bad pass from center resulted in a Can ton fumble on the next play and the Catamounts recovered inside the Canton ten yard stripe. Dal- ton feinted a play at left tackle with the ball carrier going to the right. He almost got away but was stopped by Goss from behind with a slight gain. Souther, with a fancy bit of run- ning behind fine intereference, sco- red on the next play through right guard. Boyd sent a perfect kick through the cross bars for the ex- tra point. Dalton, 7. Canton, 0. Dalton kicked off and Curtis was tackled instantly as the Greenie in- terference failed to block effectual- ly. Goss hit left end for a small gain. A right end play failed to gain and Curtis kicked. Dalton’s ball in C. H. S. territory. Hawkins W. D. Thompson, of the Canton Bowling Center, announces that in- terest in the league has increased by leaps and bounds and reminded that the Bowling Center is award- in gcash prizes this month for high bowlers.

Canton High’s Greenie football team, eleven good men and true, tonight will meet Winder High School here at Harmon Field in a return game. Canton earlier in the season de- feated the Barrow County gridders 27 to 0 but reports are that the Winder team has improved con- siderably and may give the locals a harder tussle than in the prev- ious game. The Winder eleven last Friday held Cornelia to a scoreless tie and the Appleknock ers are supposed to be a strong team in their section.

During the intermission at the half the Dalton band paraded on the field, formed a large D and played their alma mater. The band was very colorful in white uniforms and red cloaks, and led by a drum majorette who won loud applause from the crowd. Third Quarter Canton kicked off to Dalton to open the 3rd quarter and Fain's kick traveled to the Dalton 20 yard line. A Dalton back caught the ball, started to run and fumbled. Canton recovered on the Dalton 20. On the first play Canton lost three at center; a hidden ball play with Curtis taking the ball and running left lost five more yards. Third down and 18 yards to go.

" SPORTING SIDE By JOE PARHAM Jr. Tribune Sports Editor Not so hot on football picks this week. Four out of seven. We hit Ga. Tech, Kentucky, Notre Dame and Tennessee on the nose but miss ed picking Princeton, Auburn and Carnegie Tech as winners. We gave the nod to Tulane to beat North Carolina but the game was a tie and so was thrown out. A number of hard games, but brave ‘till the end, here goes: GEORGIA TECH—AUBURN: Don’t tell a soul we told you but it looks like the Yellow Jackets by a touchdown. TECH. N. Y. U.—GEORGIA: The Violets, fresh from an upset victory over the wild and wooly Tartans of Carnegie Tech, should mop up with the Ga. Bulldogs. N. Y. U., to the tune of about 20-6. ALABAMA—MISSISSIPPI STATE:The Bulldogs have been com ing along right handily lately but are not yet in the same league with the Crimson Tide. ALABAMA. TULANE—OLE MISS:Here‘s a chance for the upset to end all up sets but we can't quite see Harry Mehre's Rebels pulling it. Tulane is just a bit too powerful. TULANE. UNIV. OF NORTH CAROLINA-UNIV. OF PENN.: Looks like another victory for the South, with the nod going to NORTH CARO LINA, by two touchdowns. NOTRE DAME-CARNEGIE TECH: Last year the Irish beat the Tartans with a referee’s mistake. This time they’ll probably just use a half back or two, probably. NOTRE DAME. PITTSBURG—FORDHAM: A great game between two great teams. Our “hunch” pick for the week, FORDHAM. VANDERBILT—L. S. U.: In spite of Helen Highwater, we'll take the Commodores to snap out of the doldrums and set the Bayou Tiger back on its haunches. Not only that, we’ll tell you the score. VAN DERBILT-13. L. S. U.—6. A grandstand would certainly go well at the Canton High football field - - Ditto a loud speaker system to inform the crowds who can't see who carries the ball - - - Biggest crowd of the season present at the Dalton—Canton game last Friday night. They were lined several deep on both sides of the field - - - Sticking out the Chin Dept.: The Uni- versity of Tennessee will not go through the season undefeated - - - Wonder who had the brilliant idea of snake-dancing over the field at the half Friday night while the Dalton Band was performing. Very discourteous. The idea is all right but it should be planned and have some responsible person in charge - - - Canton High cheering section seemed much better Friday night - - - Bowlers get a lot of fun out of the League contests held every night. Spectators seem to enjoy it too ■ - Coach D. B. Carroll is down on the 42 yard line. On the and clap heartily for strikes and spares - - next play Souther went over tack-- le, and by very good broken field (Continued on page 7) absorbed in basketball these days. His girls are coming along nicely, he says. SPORT ODDITIES - - By Archie Ellis, Jr. JOHNNY KELLEHER MARRY Millers Meet A. C.
