John Brown, Athens boy, finished one of the most brilliant
careers ever established by a Georgia football player as the Univer

guard, and was one of the best in the country during the past season.
Athens High Regulars Are
Bad In Scrimmage Tuesday
Commerce to Be Played
Friday, Winterville
Saturday Nights
Coach Sam Gardner, Athens
High basketbal] mentor, was very,
very displeased with the showing
that his first team made in a
lengthy scrimmage with the sec
ond team at the practice yesterday
afternoon, for the gallant “scrubs”,
strengthened by the playing of
Clayton Bowers, assistant football
and basketball coach at center,
giving them one big man, literally
tore the regulars apart during the
first half of the scrimmage and
lead by a 14 to 4 count.
However, during the last part
of the skirmish the first string
ers did a little better and the
count ended about even, with the
second team probably holding a
small edge in the score. Even
during the second half, when
Coach Bowers was removed from
the fray after “doing’” his players
up a job, the play of the first
team was very ragged and they
will have to do qutie g bit of im
proving if they expect to give
Commerce a battle when the two
teams clash Friday night in Com
merce.
Regulars Outplayed
In addition to doing a little more
scoring, the second stringers were
passing better than their oppo
nents, playing better defensive ball
and showing much better team
work. However, the regulars will
be given a chance to redeem them
selves in another skirmish this aft
ernoon but they will find the sec
ond team giving them g real fight
for every point. 2
The lineup for the first team
' was Robert Hodgson at center,
John Stegeman and Rudolph Guest
at forwards and Willie Broach and
Walter Wilfong at guards. Of the
above mentioned Broach probably
played the best. Jimmie Hudson,
forward, was used as a sub for
the first stringers.
~ On the second team were Bow
ers at center, Jack Reid and Rob
ert Horne at the forward posts and
Carl Childers and Marion Wilkes
at guards. Robert Horne, the
smallest man on the squad, was
one of the main figures in the
serubs success yeterday. If he had
a little more size Horne might be
rinning first team.
Another hard workout is on the
card for this afternoon, including
a serimmage, while tomorrow eve
ning the team will conclude the
practice for the Commerce tilt with
a light workout.
Saturday night the boys will
play their fourth game of the gea
gon, the second home clash, bat
tling the already once defeated
Winterville five on the high school
court. The Athens lassies will
meet the Winterville sextet in a
preliminary contest, starting at
7:45 o‘clock, with the boys clash
following immediately after. Ad
mission to the double-bill will be
10 and 20 cents.

ATHENS GUARD ONE
0F BEST IV SOUTH
JURING PIST YEAR
Started Career on Grid
At Athens High School
As a Halfback ; '
BY GUY TILLER, JR.
‘When the whistle blew to end thel
Georgia-Tech game, jt also ended
the illustrious career <f another
famous Athens football player, John
Srown. .
In your writer's memory is stor
ad away the brilliance of George
Torton, Frank Dudley, “Red” Lea
thers, Buster Kilpatrick, and Le
oy Moorehead, who may return to
school next fall. To that list John
Brown must be added.’
Fine products, those six. Georgel
Morton was All-Southern half
sack, Frank Dudley, a member of
the famous ’27 backfield and one
f the sovth’s outstanding blockers,
ted Leathers, All-Southern guard,
Puster Kilpatrick was one of the
Bulldogs Imost eg=ngerous backs,
“croy Moorehead was selected All
ljoutheastern, @nd now it appears
nevitable that Brown will win
nvthical honors.
Although born in Sparta, Ga.,
John moved to Athens when he
lwns ten years old and performes
regularly for Athens High his jun -
iwr and senior years. During hi
high school career Brown playec:
fullvack 2nd halfback and it wa:
not until he entered Georgia that
he performed in the line.
, Switched to Guard
Entering the university in 1930
John was switched to guard an<
starred on the Bullpup team, His
sophomore season was spent on ths
sidelines in order for him to have
an extra year of competition and
to add experience at his new posi
tion.
During his first and seecond years
on the Bulldog varsity John re
lieved first Leroy Moor¢head anc
then Butch MecCulough and al
though he rarely started a contest
he was very valuable in that he
could play either guard position and
play them well. Brown was per
fect in physique, possessed a. keen
football mind, had plenty of speed
and power, but until the waning
moments of the ’33 season did not
have the necessary confidence in
himself.
That fault was conquered largely
due to the tutoring of Ted Twomey
and Brown was a sensation at
spring practice. It was his form
during the spring session that has
tened Twomey to say that with ar
even break in publicity John Brown
would be _All-Southeastern. The
thing that makes the statement
more powerful is tne fact that at
that time Moorehead and MeCul
lough were both slaled to return to
school and Brown would face the
same competition for a regula:
berth he had faced two years un
successfully.
Overlooked at First
You know the story. Brown was
off to a flying' start but for some
reason was overlooked at first by
the scribes, but they could no)
keep neglecting him as he was out
standing in every game. Finally
the first break came and Brown.
has been in the headline ever
since. He- has been a marvel on
defense and his blocking to clear
the way for the runners has been
unusually good.
Coaches, scribes and opponents
have sung his praises and we de
cided to see what the Bulldogs
thought of -their own star. They
were lavish in their praise for
him, John West, who started every
game with Brown on the right side
of the Georgia line, said, “A bril
liant football player, who plays
with a team spirit and would be
the last in the world to think of
fume for himself. Above that
however, stands the fact that he i
a clean football player and a fin‘
youn man. Athens should be prou”
of him.” And everyone knows Ath
ens is.
Columns could be devoted t
the praise for this young man, bu?
that is like repeating something i
good that is good — just telling
facts about a young man that ha
made sport scribes and opposinr
teams face facts, that he is one o”
the best linemen ever to wear th¢
Red and Black. \
Brown is gone, as far as playv
ing college football is concerned
although it is rumored Ted Twome”
would like to have him for an as
sistant coach at Kentucky. Whe’
Brown departed he left “a guard
to keep Athens’ reputation in th
football books, in Alex Ashford
Hugh O’Farrell and possibly Le
roy Moorehead.
The Georgia football team is ar
aide to Athens, and Athens is ar
aide to the Georgia football team,

' Progress Made Last Night
| Is Creat; To Hold
|/ Meeting Tuesday
! L. H. Cunningham, physical
| director of the Athens Y. M. C.
| A., proposed a plan at the meet
ling of the church basketball
i league last nght, whereby a ‘Y’
| Church Athletic Association in.
{ Athens would ke formed without
émm-h cost to the churches, and
| none to the players.
‘ The idea is to have not only a
| basketball league, but an indoor
| baseball league and probably a!
| touch football league, among the
{ churches of Athens. Each church‘
| would have to pay a dollar to be
'come members of the nssoclaflon.‘
| anl & eertain fee would be charged
{each time the players participcted
'! in a game.
| If the association 18 formed, the
"mskelhail games and the other
{ leages, will be held at the Y. M,
‘C. A, building, with -general
| headquarters at the “Y". l
l The idea, as presented by Mr.
Cunningham, is have each mlnla-{
! ter appoint a boy or girl to repre-{
!sent the church, in an executivo‘
committee, which will govern the
; league. Tickets for the games will
{ be sold to the players on the teams
! for half price by the “Y”, and tho}
! players can sell the tickets for the
| full price. Receipts at the door
1 would go to the “Y”. |
i This has heen very suecessful
in other cities, Mr. Cunningham
i said, and he believes that it will

| Trudeau was born in New York
' Citp, October 5, 1848. He was the
! descendant of many generations
iof French physicians, and was
| thus well qualified by heredity
| for the discovery he was destined
'to make. His youth was spent
with his grandparents in Paris,
where he obtained his education in
French schools. Returning to New
York at elghteen, he was able to
spend several years of leisure dur
ing which he engaged in popular
social activities and athleti¢ sports.
Then, deciding to settle upon some
career, he secured an appointmeént
to the Naval Academy, which was
then at Newport.
He gave this up to become the
devoted nurse of his brother, who
had contracted tuberculosis. Dur
ing the , illness Trudeau often
slept with his brother , and by
order of the attending physician
every window in the room was
kept tightly, closed. Of course, he
also contracted the disease. It
‘was not until he had married and
established himself in medical
practice several years later, how
ever, that the fact was realized,
although In the light. of present
knowledge he had several warn
ings The first resulted from a
walking . match from . Fifty-ninth
Street to the Battery. Although he
was an excellent athlete and sports
man, he was thoroughly exhausted
from the match for several days,
and developed a “cecld” absess
which had to be operated on sev
eral times. While in England
during his honeymoon, the second
warning came in the form of a
swelling of the lymphatic glands,
but so little was the mechanism of
tuberculosis infection known then
that no alarm was felt. oot
Avctual discovery came when &
fellow physician deélared he look
ed ill and insisted on taking his
temperature. It was 101 degress
Still unconcerned, and merely to
Iforestall' an argument, Trudeau
went to specialist for examina
ltion. He was told that the upper
two-thirds of hig left lung was in

bercuoris was considered a death
sentence. Trudeau felt that he was
merely marking time, but he did
try in the Bouth and in Minnesota
to improve his health. His travel
ing was in vain, so he decided to
'spend his last days in his favorite
hunting ground in the Adirondack
Mountaing of Northern New York
State. This region was then a
wilderness braved only by ardent
sportsmen, but he was determined
to remain there throughout the
winter of 1874. 8o deep-rooted at
that time was the belief that a
consumptive should seek a warm
and sunny climate, and avoid cold
and storm, that only after consid
erable argument and persuasjon
| could he induce Paul Smith and
his wife to allow him and his fam
ily to spend the winter at their
hunting '»dge. On his fox-hunting
ltrms during that winter Trudeau
'imu.de his observation regarding
!the valus of rest in treating tu
l berculosis.
! I found,” he said, “that I could
{ not walk enough to stand much
chance for a shot without feeling
sick and feverish the next dap, and
this was the first intimation I had
llas to the value of the rest cure.
‘I walked very little after this, andi
my faith in the.value of the rest
luum became more and mone es

‘ The idea of building the sanato
rium criginated in his reading, in
1882, an account of Brehmer’s San
itarium in Silesia. No information

As his work became known he
received the cooperation of the
leaders of the medical profession.
Ilis sanatorium soon hecame .an
assured success and his long sin
gle handed fight in the dense
woods of the Adirondacks against
the tubercle bacillus was winning
him high honors. One of the
greatest of these was his unani
mous election in 1904 as the first
president of the mnewly organized
National Tuberculosis Association.
During his life Dr. Trudeau
was forced many times to take to
his bed because his tuberculosis
lesion had become active, and sev
eral times his life was despaired
aof. Yet he lived wuntil November
15, 1915, to the age of sixty-seven
years. L ;
Before his death he had the
satisfaction of seeing the benefits
of his laborious research and ex
periments carrvied into everp cor

colored paper—the penny Christ
mas Seals. .
Since the time when Trudeau
was the first president of the Na
tional Tuberculosis Assoclation
the organization has become the
parent of 2,000 affiliated assocla
tions in all parts of the United
States. Through its organized
campaign supported by funds
raised in the annual Christmag
geal sales, it has been greatly re
sponsible for reducing the ~death
rate from tuberculosis.
In a speech Trudeau delivered
shortly before his death he said,
“Over the doors of the hospitals
fort consumptives twenty-five
vears ago might well have been
written these words: ‘All hope
abandon ye that enter here.’
While today, in the light of new
knowledge we may Jjustly place
at the entrance of the modern
gsanatorium the more hopeful in
seription: ‘Cure sometimes, relief
often, comfort always’.”
