Following their overwhelming de feat at the hands of Auburn In Auburn Friday night the Bull Dogs weren’t concedtcd the slightest possible chance of victory as the two teams lined up for the Initial tip off. Several fans openly de clared that “the game tonight won’t be much.” very probably figuring that the Bull Dogs couldn’t cope with the Clubbers. But they were handed a big sifrprice.

Beading 22 to 20 at the end of the first half, the Bulldogs 'came right back In the second session and continued their remarkable playing, forging ahead In the last fsw minutes of play after the lead had changed hands several times. f e “clubbers,” big favorites, ut itart opened the battle with a and momentarily swept the lers from their feet, tallying poi nts' before Georgia scored, but when the Bulldogs soon began o play an assortment of ’T.

Captain Ed Gurr was Georgia’s •lg tar. Edward was the out- tanding player on the floor. He hot six field goals and six fouls md several times dribbed the ball .11 the way down the court for an easy shot which he made good. r -Joe Bennett and George Clark •Iso played well.

Athens’ newest enterprise Is the Classic Hat Cleaning and Shoe Shine Shop opening Tuesday 10 a. m„ at 184 Clayton streot' (recently vacated by the New York Cafe). Mr. James Totou, former pro prietor of tho Coxy Stand on Lumpkin street, has returned to the cltqr and will be manager of the new enterprise. Realizing the need for auch an enterprise and the possibilities of Its success If given proper attention and the pubUc given courteous treatment, he has opened his new place with tbe view of meeting the’ demand and expects to charge the most reasonable prices for work that is guaranteed to be satisfactory. As an evidence of the prices that will prevail, Mr. .-Fbtou an nounces that the- price of a shoe shine at the Classic will be only 0c. He assures the patrons of the new place, however, that the qual ity of. the shine will be equal to any obtained elsewhere in Athens or any pther City for a dime or a quarter. , A complete stock of all tho pop ular magarlnes, whekly papers, periodicals and the dailies will be on sale Here. . The Interior of the Classic prc- sotfjs a neat and- handsome ap pearance, and It wrlll undoubtedly he given a liberal patronage. they were ille five’s baffled by the Watkinsvil dc.-eptive passing and also their stubborn five-man defense. At times the game was very fast and at other times it slowed up. The last- half was too rough for much basketball to be exhibited, how ever, the burden of all the fouls fell on Watkinsville. Watkinsville High jumped, into an early lead and had tallied eight pointers before the Lavonia gang tallied. Twy long baskets and some prettf work under the has ket did the work. Then came one of Lavonia’s scarce tallies. The Oconee county crew kept at work on the offense and defense so that when the half ended the count stood 18 to five for the Watkins- ville quintet. COME BACK ’ ' WITH RUSH Lavonia came back after the in termission with a rush but the missing of several "snowbirds" killed a possible rally. True they had a good deal qf hard luck but still their shooting was fierce. Af ter the visitors rally calmed the Watkinsville crew opened a fusi- lade of midcourt casts that sent them into an enormous lead.

The enrollment of a membership and the obtaining of working capital in keeping with a city of Athens’ population wealth, trade territory and possibilities. The adoption of a far-reaching program of activities and the In stallation of a special ’committee system to put each activity in tho hands of men who are interested In the activity In question. The holding of a “members forum” each week where community ques tlons can be discussed Intelligent ly and where men who Are authori ties on the question under discus sion can he heard by all members. The establishment of adequate headquarters where committee meetings may be held without In terference, with other work. These are tbe usdal steps In the bonding of a modern chamber nf commerce, according to Daniel H. McFarland, of the American City Bureau, who will manage the local campaign. He says that experience has shown that any city can hate a highly efficient chamber of com merce, but It Is necessary to give It the same thought and effort that is required in creating a successful private business. Progressive cities, according to Mr. McFarland, have come to real ise the need every five or air year* for what la popularly referred to as a civic revival. It is an Inten sive period of studying local condl tfons and problems by the com munity as a whole with the view of formulating definite plans, for future growth and prosperity, and It Is the desire of leaders In this movement that the active atten tion of every man and woman will tapfocused upon thla movement tor the'building of a greater Athens- through organised effort.
