_ The ejection of “Brick” Stone, star Athens High center, from .the
Athens-Gainesville game here Thursday on the third play of the game
has caused a furore of criticism against Referee Jimmy Murdock, whose
services were secured by Coach Pittard of the Galnesville team. While
this column is not an allbi column by any means, the writer, will nét
hesitate to correct a wrong, even tliough it might appear to he an alibj
m{ the surface. A person who is a formeér football coach himself and
several others who were standing near the sidelines and the two teams
wgbn Stone was disqualified. state without reservation that Stone was
not “kneeing” or playing unnecessarily rough when called upon to leave
the gahe,
Stone is a hard player, this much is known hy the writer, whb. in
cidentally, did not see the play. He really goes bhursting through an
opposing I'ne for his man—just like any good foothall player should.
And he went bursting through and nailed a Gainesville hack hefore he
could get started on the particular play, according to dozens of close
eye witnesses with whom the writer has talked \with about the play
since the game. But they state emphatically Stone did not digqualify
himself in any way.

MIDGETS DEFEAT
ATLANTA ELEVEN
6-0 HERE FRIDAY
The Athens Mighty Midgets
kept their undefeated record clean
Friday when they outfought and
outplayed the Atlanta Gamecocks,
to win, 6 to 0.
’ The Athens team 'was greatly
outweighed by the Atlantans.and
‘the Atlanta boys were older—but
the Midgets held them timie after
time, {wice on the 3-yard line,
After being held by the Athens
team twice in a row, the Atlan
tans seemed to let down and the
Midgets marched down the field to
the only score of the game. Pad
dock made the touchdown. The
extra point was missed and the
game ended with ' the , score still
6 to 0. A !
The Atlanta coach seemed to
forget the weight limit during the
latter stages of the game and
sent in boys that were much too
heavy. The Midgets never quit
trying and due to the continuous
roughing of the Gamecocks they
were able to hold the Atlanta
team from scoring. .
The work of Jimmy Stephenson
at end was the best for the Mid
gets. Trousdale and Paddock

DROP-KICK CHAMPS
NAMED AT Y MLEA
Leo Costa Makes 10 Out
Of 10; Jim Kidd Gets 9
QOut of 10 Tries
The drop-kicking contest, which
was held at the “Y" athletic field
last week, ended Satu‘rday with
four boys crowned ass cflw cham
pions in their respective® classes’
Seventy-six boys ehtered and
more than fifty of them = made
their trials despite the rainy wea
ther which prevailed during the
latter part of the week.
Jim Kidd became champion in
the 95-pound class with the almost
perfect score of 9 out of 10; and
TL.eo Costa won the 110-pound class
with a perfect score of 10 for 10
kicks. Each of theSe boys were
awarded a hoys' book ‘hy McGre
gor company. John Stegeman was
the most successful candidate in
the 110-125 class with 7 out of 10
and was presented with a pocket
}knife. given by the Athens Sport
ing Goods qupany. The unlimit
ed ' class was won by . Robert
Hodgson with a score of 9 out of
10. He was awarded two theater
tickets, which were presented by
the Palace theater. o
Several features were brought
out in this contest which are worth
mentioning. First of all it uncov
!ered a new and interesting angle
to football as a form of competi
)tion. It demonstrated the value of
cool nerves and a c¢ool head in
competition and uncovered some
real drop-kciking talent both to
sthe boys and as individuals and as
a group. The contest, to the cas
ual onlooker, appeared to be easy,
Ybut each contestant found that
‘the more points scored the harder
they were to make, and at times
the tenseness of the occasion be
came almest as serious as in a
football game with the score tied
and a point after touchdown to be
made.

High Grid Title
Despite the fact that Georgia
and Athens High school went
down to defeat in several of their
efforts thi: fall, Athens still has
an undefeated football team.
The Athens High and Industrial
team finished the year Thursday
by defeating the strong Spencer
High Negro eleven “in Memorial
stadium, Columbus, by the score
of 6 to 0. Spencer, winner of the
state Negro high school champion
ship last year, was unbeaten he
fore Thursday. !
The victory by the Athenians
gave them a strangle hold on the
state championship, the first one
the local school has ever won. {
L. Kirkpatrick, coach, and the
players are being congratulated
for their efforts.
The Athens team cinched the
‘championship in the second quar
ter of the game. With the ball
;on the 10-yard line, and fourth
down, the Athens Wildeats pulled
a triple pass play behind the line
of serimmage and Peter Billups
carried the ball around right end
for the touchdown, without a
Spencer player touching him.
The Wildecats outcharged the
Columbus boys, and on defensive
they often threw. them for losses.
Spencer’s only serious threat car
ried the =l)an no farther, than Ath
ens’ 30-vard linme. This was made
on a 40-yard retum’ of a punt b¥
Greenwood.
The outstanding players for the
Athens team were Peter Billups,
Larry Howard, Marshall Hansome,
Whit Hill (captain), Charlie Pet

Cadets, Doped to Win,
No Match for Ramblers;
80,000 See Game _
By ALAN GOULD
(Associated Press Sports Editor)
YANKEE STADIUM, New York
—(AP)— rwtre Dame swept to an
overwhelming victory ever the
Army, 21 to 0, before 80,000 spec
tators Saturday W the most start
ling upset of the intercollegiate
football campaign.
Big, powerful, and dazzlingiy
swifth, the Ramblers struck the
goldhelmeted Soldiers with an at
tack that was as brilliantly exe
cuted and as devasting as it was
effective. .
Before 1t ws all over and the
Army’'s weary, battered forces gavu'
ground for the ]ns{vtfnw near their
goal-line, Notre Dame had tallied
three touchdowns, narrowly missed
putting over about five more, and
put to rout one of the East’s great
est teams.
Notre Dame gave their rivals the
worst setback an Army team has
met in this series since the 28-t
triumph of the late Knute Rockne's
1921 outfit,
Thge l'il‘sg tW:Q touchdowns,' by
George Melinkovich, fullback, ana
Hugh Devore, substitute end, were
the direct result of passes into the
Army end one. The third score
was the result of a fumble by Ken
Fields, Army triple-threat back, in
the end zone, where big Jim Harrls,
guard, fell on/the ball as it boundeg
loose. 1
Army at ‘no time justified the
pre-game odds in its favor and the
tremendous erowd, including the
corps of Cadets, was shocked by the
failure of the Soldiers to come even
close to scoring with an . attacx
which Felix (Pick) Vidal had led to
a succession of dazzling victories.
Vidal, the “hall of fire,” sputtered
out after onevsolo dash that brought
the crowd to its feet in the first
period. Army had turned back No
ire Dame’s first threat, on its 12.
vard line, and looked to be on the
loose as Vidal broke around his
right end, shook off four tackles,
and roraped 36 yards to Notre

three of them in quick succession,
All failed, however, and Army
never was that close to the oppos.

last play of the second quarter,
when it didn’t mean anything.
Notre Dame re‘iistered 15 first
downs to Army’s“s, piled up 291
yards by rushing to the Cadet's 66
and gained 7 yards by passing as
