RED AND BLACK
MACON TONIGHT
Auburn Defeated Mercer
Last Week But in Macon
It’s Different.
The Oorgia Bulldogs added the sec
ond victory to their string when they
defeated Hike Donahue's basketeers
from Auburn by the close score of
lo 32. Both teams played excellent
basketball but the Plainsmen were not
dull* on a par with Setgeman'a war
riors.
The feature’of the game -was the
ezceUeat guarding of both Cheeves
and Owens, Georgia's guards. Proof
their prowess Is sufllelently shown by
the fact that Auburn was unable
ring but ala baskets In the entire
twine. Pour of these were rung by
Hahn. Auburn’s star forward.
As in the game with Furman, Geor
gla’s opponents were unable to get
through Stegeman’a flre-man defense.
They brought the ball to. the middle
of the court time after time hut be
yond this point they were unable to
pass. Consequently, they were forced
to depend on long shots for scores
Same of these ctme perilously near
the basket but after hours of anxiety
they rolled out.
The Georgia machine was working
smoothly, much better than a week
■to. The passing was accurate but
their shooting was a little bit off, due.
no doubt, to the fact that the court
was now to thorn. Anderson, the rangy
center, was particularly* unfortunate
In tbfa respect. Be shot four Bold
goats end missed, at least twenty nth
era by the proverbial gnat’s heel.
Although the game ended comfort
»My In Georgia's fewer, the ge«uU of
the grot half weg by no Steens sooth
ing to th* followers of the Red end
Black. At thb end of the Brat period
the score wee 11 to 10 lo Georgia's
fa < or. The Bulldogs began the second
half with a rush however, and plied up
some 18 points before the Plainsmen
had recovered from their dace.
To pick Individual stars of the fray
it no easy task. Hahn, Auburn's for
ward, played * good dame, scoring
four of his team's six Held goals.
Wade, at right guard, was the heavy
ecorer of the evening, ringing up ten
points on fouls.
For Georgia the playing of Cheeve3
and Owens stood out above the work
of their mates. Anderson played
good game but he Seemed unable to
locate the basket -at In previous
games.
The Bulldogs left early this morn
ing to meet the Mercer Baptists in
Macon tonight. Auburn defeated them
the flrst part of the week In Auburn
hut beating Mercer on their home
giounds la quite another affair. Still.
It is expected that the Red and Black

too great,

The messages brought to the boys’

One of the very-important and in.
