Last week was a sorry one for picking the grid winners. We had Georgia, Tennessee, U. of N. C., and Ole Miss but missed picking them right on the Tech-Duke and Auburn-Boston games. We selected Kentucky over Alabama and we were glad to get out with a tie. Winners and losers this week: GA. TECH-KENTUCKY: A good old fashioned slug-fest out at Grant Field may be expected from these two teams tomorrow. Both are in the race for the Southeastern Conference title in a big way and may be expected to shoot the works. However, we believe GA. TECH has a little more “works” to “shoot”. FLORIDA-GEORGIA: Even though South Carolina upset the Gat ors, they can’t be taken too lightly. We’ve always believed a team was particularly tough after being beaten in an upset. GEORGIA will have a hard time winning. ALABAMA—TULANE: The Green Wave will be hard to stop. TU- LANE, 19. Alabama, 6. L. S. U.—MISSISSIPPI STATE: A breeze for Bernie Moore’s Ti gers by two touchdowns and is that Mississippi spelled right. L. S. U. PITTSBURGH-CARNEGIE TECH: The Tartans will probably toss the Panthers around by a one-touchdown margin. CARNEGIE TECH. AUBURN—VILLANOVA: This one had to be decided by the flip of a coin. It came heads so the nod goes to VILLANOVA. NOTRE DAME—IOWA: The Irish beat Purdue three points--the Hawkeyes beat 'em four points. You figure it out. Personally, we’ll take NOTRE DAME. COLUMBIA—NAVY: We see in the crystal ball a win for Larrupin Lou Little's Lions from COLUMBIA. HARVARD—ARMY: Looks like the Cadets to win. ARMY. Cartersville High defeated Marietta High recently. The Hurricane eleven was beaten by Canton ... so it looks like the Greenies will be the favorites in the coming game with Marietta . . . Liked Max Fields Jr.'s lead in the Nov. 2 Bartow Herald, viz: “When the Marietta High School football team came to Cartersville last Frdiay night they were the Blue Devils. When they left they were only Blue, for Latimer, Gar- wood and Company had beaten the devil out of them to the tune of a 6-0 victory song”... Hope the CHS football team is awarded letters this year. They certainly deserve them. They deserved them last year too, for that matter, but didn't get them.. . Hoggie Hilton starred in the recent G. M. C.—Georgia Freshmen game, although the Cadets lost. Hoggie scored their only touchdown ...

Greenie Cagers To Play Two Games Away Next Week By R. D. OWEN Coach Carroll has announced that his basketball teams will play two games next week. Both games, however, are away from home. Next Tuesday night games have been scheduled with Fitzhugh Lee High School near Smyrna, and for next Saturday night games are to be played against Lawrenceville High School in Lawrenceville. Coach Carroll also announced that the basketball season would open in Canton on Friday night, December 1. According to Coach Carroll the girls are showing a fine competi- tive spirit and much improvement. The starting lineup against Fitz- hugh Lee will probably be Imogene Huey, Lodene Chapman, and one of the Tippens twins at forward positions, and at guard Frances Dunn, Alene Vaughn, and Eliza- beth Smith. The latter two are new and have shown much basket- ball ability and should develop in- to splendid guards by the time the regular season opens. Other girls that will probably be used in the games next week in- clude Nella Fowler, Margaret and Marjorie Tippens, and Ruth Hill- house. The boys' team will probably in- clude Adams and Smithwick at guard, Haley at center, and Hol- brook and Anderson at forward. Nolan Manous and J. L. Pinyon are two more promising players that Coach Carroll will use in the games next week. Members of the football team that play basketball will not start practice until after the football season closes. THE BIG GAMES TOMORROW Here are some of tomorrow's big games in the grid world.

CANTON SPORTS BETTER RECORD THAN TROJANS TROJANS HAVE TWO WINS, TWO LOSSES; CANTON HAS WON SIX OF SEVEN TILTS The Canton High Greenie foot- ball squad left this morning for Carrollton, where they will meet the Carroll grid eleven there at 2:30 this afternoon. This is the second away-from-home game of the sea- son for the Canton boys. The locals downed the Trojans 26 to 7 here last year and on the basis of seasons' records. Canton will have the edge this afternoon. I Carrollton has defeated Cave Springs 7, to 6 and Tallapoosa 6 to 0. They were defated 30 to 0 by West Point and 12 to 6 by Richard- son High, of Atlanta. A basis of comparison may be found in the fact that while Rich- ardson beat Carrollton, Cartersville tied Richardson and Canton defeat- ed Cartersville. The Trojans are reported to have a strong aerial attack and passes Puckett to Morgan route will be watched closely by the Cherokee gridders. The starting Carrollton line-up wil laverage about 155 in the line, and 150 in the backfield. Probable starting lineups will be: CANTON—Bottoms and Bell, ends; Ellison and McFarland, tack- les; Hilton and Quarles, guards; Hagin, center; Fain, Curtis, Gar- ner and Goss, backfield. CARROLLTON— Nalley and Sharp, ends; Cunningham and Al- dridge, tackles; Herring and Craw- ford, guards; Williams, center; Hale, quarterback; Puckett and Morgan, halfbacks; and Fields, full- back.
