Just a few short weeks intervene now before the
Georgia Bulldogs march out on Sanford Field for the
initial gridiron battle of 102-‘5 with the Mercer Bap
tists on September 29.
Beginning with that game the Bulldogs will go
through such a schedule as no southern college has
ever attempted. The Bed and Black grid artists not
only meet the very best teams in the south, teams
that year in and year out, rank at the top or near the
top, but they go out of tb ?ir way to throw in games
with Yale and Centre College for good measure.

“Loud Speaker” Guides
Vessels to Port
Marine engineers at an English port
havo devised a voico-amplifying appa
ratus, which, It is claimed, greatly re
duces the danger of accidents to large
vessels approaching their docks in a
busy harbor. With tho new lcmd
speaker, a dock superintendent may
throw his voice out over a long stretch
of water to the helmsman of an incom
ing ship. Complete d* >cking directions
be given in much less time than is
required when whistles and bells are
used. Tho amplifier Is so large that a
crane is necessary to swing it into posi
tion for use. An attendant, mounted
the hoist, points the instrument in
the proper direction.
Removing Headlamp Rims
When it becomes necessary to re
move automobile headlamp rims, it will
frequently bo found that they are so
rusted that they cannot readily bo
tumod by hand. This is duo to tho
fact that insufficient “ grip” is obtained
because of the high polish of the nickel
or enamel. *
Before applying tools, which may
mar tho finish of the rims, apply a strip
of friction tapo around tho entire outer
edge, and try again. In most cases, the
rim will readily como off. After the
rim has been replaced, tho tape fa tty
moved, and tho adhesive cleaned fra*
tho polishod surface with gasoline.
Simple Portable, Adjustable
Base for Farm Engines
Tho problem of holding down a gaso
line engine, without resorting to the
usual method of bolting it to the floor
was solved by the portable and adjust
able base shown in tho drawing. Two
heavy wooden beams are lxdted to the
underside of tho engino, their ends pro
jecting far enough to be used as han
dles. Two similar beams, somewhat
shorter, are permanently attache 1 to
the floor so that those on tho engino
will fit between them. A rcmovuHo
rod is then pushed through holes
drilled in ull four beams, to lock them
together and hold tho engine down se
curely. v Onc holo is drilled through
each outside beam and a series of hides
through tho inner ones so that tho two
base members can bo locked together
at different points, to obtain proper
l>clt ternyon. Floor beams of the sumo
type are attached near every engine-
driven machine, so that, to attach the
engine, it is only necessary to slide it
into place and slip in tho rod.
