DISPUTES CLAIM OF RED disputes the claim of the University of Georgia and of Auburn that the first football game in the south was played between the two teams representing them in Atlanta, Ga., during the fall of 1892. How many other southern games had been played at that time is not known here, but Virginia records show that the Orange and Blue eleven was organized in 1888 and that by the end of 1892 at least 15 games had been played with teams in the southern states. 3%* team of 1888 played only , first rules N of- eligibility under throe game*.

If the viewpoint of Notre Daroo was shsred by the football critics Wycoff would be certain of a Place In the All-American bafek- field, COLUMBUS On.—Five members of Columbus High School football team, probably the strongest high school grid outfit In South Geor gia this fall, will matriculate at the University of Georgia next fall, a- tally of the sqiyid recently- disclosed. Of this number, three are linesmen pf no little ability, and of the remaining two, one la James '‘lilt" Harbuck, captain of the 1922 eleven, all-state prep se lection and halfback de luxe. The outfit will all In all consti tute the strongest array of football talent from Columbus to enter any one southern' college In many a day. The five nre Harbuck, Mas sey, Kendiek, Dunn and Gordy Gordy and Harbuck have both led the local elevens on the field, the former captaining this year's team. Harbuck weighs over tho one hundred and sixty mark and la ac- c'.almed as the most consistent ground gainer In high school cir cles. He smashes a line, circles ends with the greatest of ease, side steps with the best cf them, pass es well, and does the punting for the locals. Frank Gordy tips the scales well over the one hundred and ri venty five mark and has played four Jam-up years as tackle. He has proven a tower of strength in the line with Cecil "Heavy" Dunn who pjays a guard next to * him. Clarence Kendrick, the other of the forwards to come to Athens, captains the scrub outfit, is a fine linesman, but was kept out of the varsity Une-up by a lack of ex perience. He weighs about 170, too. Jack Massey Is the regular first- string quarterback and has proven himself to be a heady, little field general. Juck Is a. regulnf ror- ward on the cage team, and catch es for the baieball nine. William Kline will be another eater knows that an effective sys tem of instruction will express It self in the thought and conduct ot the pupil.
