three strong teams Including the
Madison A. and M.. the Mercer

ways had a high record In athletics
but the directors express them
selves aa especially proud of the
record that haa been made this
year.
It 1a announced by Clement M.

ranged affairs that while e
rtudent does not get to play on
the college team, each student
vets a generous amount of athletic
training and exercises'
Mr. Eyler Is a graduate of the
University of Georgia and well
known In educational sections
During recent years the names
of local boys have appeared more
frequently In the varsity line-ups
of Georgia athletic teams- than
ever before.
Athena has In the part, of course
turned out some stars. The Hat Is
too long to review, but such nmaes
as Rucker, Gordon, McWhorter,
I Hodgson, Rawson, Cobb, Pound,
Cox and many othera stood out.
Usually however these names
were strung out through many
years.
From the time however that
Morton Hodgson was cavorting
around first base, the number of
local boys making the teams
slumped.
For several years the l/st showed
only one or two. then rame Raw-
son. Pound, Cox In one year.
This year la one of the banner
years for Athena along that line.

On the. baakttball team will be

Aa to baseball, we are uncertain
with the chances that no local
lads will be placed therq.|
Next year's football team Is
where Athens shines. Kilpatrick,
Butler, .Morton, Forbes and Mapp
will all make the squad, with the
chances that tour of the number
will make the varsity. To have five
men from one town the else of
Athena on a varsity football team
at a nq'veralty tho slse of Georgia
speaks more than well for the pre

The muddy field made the footing unsure and

Playing only straight football
but doing so with a drive that waa
bcvVldcring the Athena High Ma
roons swept the Elberton High
Crew down before a 40 to 0 score
Friday. The Maroons backs plowed,
the Invaders line for long gains
while other tkllles came as the
result of two field goals. oaring
the course of the afternoon the lo
cals kicked at the uprights from
the field for a total of nine times.
The Maroons first tally came In
the first 40 seconds of play when
Captxi'n Weatherly blocked his
usual punt and raced 20 yards for
a score.
The light Elberton lino failed
to hold tho teriffic hammering of
the Maroons attack which was
mostly on straight bucks. For some
reason the locals were hold in
check and were content with the
above score and then came a
JufjTlIade of tries at field goals toy
drop kicks. All ground gained was
made by Wallace .the blonde quar
ter for the visitors.
The Athens crew began with a
rush and noon had things all their
way and kept possession of the ball
nearly all the time. Only three or
four atraight plays were used and
these netted well. The locals line
charged like a set of wild bulls
and tore good openings for the
backs. Very few end runs were at
tempted.
