Here’s how Georgia marched to
her seventeen points agulnst Tenn
essee, her first 1923 victory over
a Conference team. The ball was
rushed in the first half to the
seven yard line of the opponents
but the punch to put It across was
lacking, but ih the final hnlf the
Bulldogs were not to be'denied and
taking the oval on the kick-off
were never headed until Randal!
smashed over for the Initial coun
ter. Here’s how It was done:
Butler was at full. Kilpatrick at
quarter, Fletcher and Randall
halves) Hatcher
kicked BO yards to Kilpatrick who
rushed it back to his 30 yard line.
Then the march was on. Fletcher
failed on the first attempt but on
the next play he went through the
middle of the line for 19 yards,
placing the ball In mid-field. Ran
dall then rklrted the end' for 7
more nnd Big John hit center for
flret down.
Fletcner was treated rather bad
Kftckvilituns that ho wasn't

ndded 5 around the sam* end and
then was on the receiving end of
forward pass for 6 more and
downs. Fletcher lunged 4 yards
through center ar.d Jake Butler
found a hole for 6 more and first

around end only after he had
gained 17 yards, placing the ball on
the 10 yard line with four downs
In which to take It over. Randall
got one yard around .end. and hit
the line for 4. Kilpatrick ndded
nnother nnd on the .fourth down

The other points cume as the re
sult of foiw field goals, three by
Troy Davis and another by Beusae.
One of the largest crowds of the
season saw the struggle that
showed the Maroons at their best
although many of the reserves saw
action, in fact all of them. The
locals failed to show a varied at
tack but were content with driving
over tackles to place the ball in
position for a field goal. Through
out the course of ths evening six
times Maroon backs shot at the
goal by drop kicks.' Four were
successful
To say that it wa s all Athens
High would be misleading for those
vlfltors were a dangerous bunch
and carlred a mighty threat. But
boy! how those lads did fight.
Even after they fell behind they
kept up driving and In the last half
succeeded In holding the Maroons
to u single field,goal. They art
new ut the game but will be«t
watching in the future. A team
with the fight they showed will he
hurd to keep down.
Athens High scored in the first
38 reconds of play when Captain
Weatherly broke through and;
blocked a kick and raced over for
a counter. Another touchdown
followed a minute later when the
Maroons, using the old Penn State
cross buck curried the ball straight
down the field for forty yards and
counter. Three pretty field
goals from ths 26 yard line by
Davis «*>■ mI Ithar wkm uriHtnl tr

MR. DAVI8
For the local- the work of
line was a decided feature while the
back wroks showed up well. The
game showed little Toy Davis at
his best and also little George
Ashford ..ho played u whale of
game. The other backs were good
,7: jbut the slick field held ths end
sklrters In check. The varsity line
while Intact wan invincible. Thh
fact stood out as the visitor*
registered only one first down. The
work of Weatherly and Bishop
stood out brightly.
The feature run of the evening
was a 60 yard dash by •‘Dynamite"
Jackson In the third qunrter. Jack-
son war held out of the game on
account of a wrenched ankle but
was sent In for five minutes of the
i third session. Receiving a punt
,‘near mid field he stepped fifty
yards through the v- Invaders but
stumbled on his Interference on

runs were contributed by Wingfield-
