Bryant and Johnny Mealor are
awarded their places and should
have them At every hotgl these
two travelers go to they are re
quired to sjt at the ehd of the

travelers can get 4 chance to eat
Eighty two hotel men wired us to
pick them for ends.
There were lota of quarterbacks,
two from Winder, ore at Commerce
but the Classlo City's representa
tive, Grady Crawford was should
ers above the other candidates and
we gave him this place without
shedding a tear. Grady gave his
four year old daughter a quarter
\o spend for candy and when the
child had her back turned, he got
the quarterback. '
There won't be much argument
from the fans when we give Joe
Downs the place at fullback. The
Palace took’moving pictures
Rotary members from their full
backs and Joe thought it such a
good idea that he had his photo
grapher snap bln) at fullback,
which mads a better picture thas
a side or front snap.
