' GEORGIA FOOTBALL TEAM AN ASSET
.uOna.ot Athens’ greatest assets is the University of
Georgia football team. Its real value to the com
mercial interests has never been realized or fully
appreciated by the merchants, bankers and citi
zens of the community. In many cities through
out the country where there ar$ no colleges or uni
versities the people have awakened to the impor
tance and value of these games to the commercial
interests. In Birmingham the people of that city
huve under course of construction a stadium with
a seating capacity of twenty-five thousand which
will cost a quarter of a million dollars. These peo
ple propose to go after football games of the south
ern colleges and offer to them guarantees sufficient
to warrant them in playing in Birmingham. And,
bo on. throughout the country, merchants and busi
ness men are organizing and capatilizing football
games as one of their most valuable assets. Athens
has. never realized the true value of its football and
baseball teams. If the merchants and business peo
ple would interest themselves and support athletics
hs they should, it would mean the bringing to
Athens of more money in one year than. from any
other one source. To make these games a success
it will require concerted action on the part of the
commercial interests of the city. It is an asset which
we cannot afford to lose, and we will lose it unless
there is more Interest shown and a better patronage
given to the games. Every merchant In Athens should
Underwrite tickets for each game and send them to
their out-of-town customers. Such a courtesy would
l>e appreciated by them and the attendance greatly
increased, besides. the large increase in trade
to the local merchants frqm the large crowds which
would come.
Saturday the last game of the season will be play
ed on Sanford Field. It should be made the biggest
game.of tho season and it can be done, if our mer-
1 • chants will co-operate and lend their aid In the un-
dcrtakii'g which has beeif'inaugurated by many cit
izens of Athens. In consideration of the great
value to which the football games have been to the
commercial interests of this city,, every merchant
should close his place of business on Saturday af
ternoon from three until five o’clock and patronize
the game—not only himself, but his clerks and out-
of-town customers- The investment required to
iyauejtho game a financial success would be nom
inal if all merchants entered into the spirit of the
movejnent and the returns would be in large pro
portions over the cost
.. ..Unless Athens awakens to the importance of its
football team and its drawing power for the people:
from this entire section of the state, one of its great
er ts assets will be lost.
NORTHERN FARMERS ARE MIGRATING
There is a tendency on the part of many of the
farmers in both the eastern and western states
"to migrate south. Already a number have left Illi
nois and more are to follow, locating in the Caroli
nes and Georgia, where it is said better lands are
offered them for agricultural pursuits of all kinds.
Sjince tho advent of the radio and the general use
of the telephone every modern convenience can be
enjoyed on the farm as it is enjoyed in the city-
