The Centre College football team will arrive in
Athene Friday in time to take a workout in the aft
ernoon preparatory to the game against Georgia
Saturday.
This is the closing game of the season for the
south and will be an interesting affair regardless of
who wins.
The Georgia team may have her
chance s discounted as a result of
the Vanderbilt and Alabama de
feats but the Red and Black is
not yet defeated. Georgia teams
have made great “comebacks” in
the past and with a week’s rest
and but little football since Sat
urday the team will be back on
edge for the game Saturday and
