must suffer the sting of defeat or
tie after the contest* are over
next Saturday. The two teams we
have in mind will be the losers of
the Tech-Vawfy and the Georgia-
Florida frames.
These two games will hold the
spotlight as far as Southern Con
ference football is concerned the
coming week-end.
Tech has the best team in years,
Vandy, with the brilliant Armi-j
stead to lead them, has one of the j
outstanding teams in the nation.
Tennessee, although hurt consid
erably by graduation, has a fast
stepping bunch of sophomore play
ers and a bunch that has made a
showing so far this season.
Florida, with nearly all of their
last year's team back, is running
wild this season. In every gar.v.
played they have won by larg
ajorities.
Georgia has not shown the out

that they exhibited last ycai

editorial endorsing the suggestion
of The Macon Telegraph that the

Dr. S. V. Sanford.
The editorial is as fo?Iows:

We think this a fine suggestion
and ‘ know of no better way in
which the University could pay a
deserved tribute and compliment
to a man that has spent many
years of his life for the advance

It is our understanding that the
present athletic field a the Uni'

‘named in honor Will Sanford, who
pitched the University of Georgia
to victory over the University of
Pennsylvania, in Atlanta, in the
first intercollegiate baseball game

true, this is all the more reason
why the new stadium should be
dedicated to the memory of the
present dean, .*$. V. Sanford. -
Dean Sanford has done much
to purify college athletics in the
south. He advocated the three

for the University to pay a trib-i
