Fans To Have Chance
To See 192B Bulldogs
In Action Before Fall
BY EltNKSX CAMP, J[£.
Monday marks the advent of the fourth and final
week of spring fotoball practice at the University of
Georgia, which' will end officially with the Georgia-
Oglethorpe practice clash> on Sanford Field, Friday
at 3 o’clock,
N ENDS HI
CAREER BRILLIANTLY
IN DEFEAT OF TECH
Novel op the Southern gridiron,
a spring game between these col
legiate rivals should draw a
goodly crowd. It will afford the
leaches a valuable opportunity to
see their charges in action, with
a vigilant eye to the flaws that
must be ironed out before the
autumn campaign. Coach Wood
ruff, however, has scouted the
reports that coaches will be allow
ed to halt the proceedings in ot-
der to counsel their disciples)
It's going to be an honest-to-
ess, good and gory, bone-
Injt football game. What’s
more, Its the only chance that
grid fans will have to see the
Bulldogs grapple with the Petrels
in 1026, for Oglethorpe is not
tfsted on the Bulldogs calendar
for nepet fall. Mercer’s Bears
will furnish the opposition in the
curtain-holster.
This game has another unusual
feature. It baa a jentiment behind
feature. It baa a sentiment behind
it. It Is a' beautiful sentiment.
The proceeds of the game will go
to aid a former Georgia athlete
who is battling for bis life against
the white plague-~tuberculosls.

The Philadelphia Athletics and

experts so agree.
Getting away to a good start
