Walter Wilfong, Willie
Broach Look Good in
Hard Practice
The first string Athens High
school basketball team, composed
of Robert Hodgson, center; Johni
Stegeman and Rudolph Guest, for
wards and Walter Wilfong and |
Willie Broach at guards, showed!
quite a bit of improvement at yes- ‘
terday’s scrimmage in preperation
for the two games this week-end, |
one in Commerce tomorrow nighti
and the other against Winterville
here Saturday night. ’
However at times the passing of
the team did not look so good and
they will have to show plenty otl
improvement if they expect to de
feat the fast Commerce quintet to
morrow night. The work of Wal
ter Wilfong and Willie Broach, the
two guards, looked very good
while Guest, at times looked like
the flashy ball player that he was
last season. The tema's two big
men, Stegeman and Hodgson, play
ed good but they were unable tc
show much offensive attack.
Playing for the second stringers
were Albert Herring and Jimmis
Hudson at forwards, Jack Reid at
center and Carl Childers gnd Ray
mond Mitchell at the guard posts.
These boys, in addition to going
through a long scrimmage with the
first team, played for a time with |
the other subs and looked fa.ix-ly‘
good working together.
Two of the forwards, Jimmie
Hudson and Robert Horne, are in
bad shape, Hudson being out with
bad ankles and Horne suffering
with two laose teeth which he re
ceived in the rough skirmish Tues
day afternoon. However, both will
be able to play in the two gamesl
this week-end, if necessary. |
The boys will conclude work fori
the contest with a workeout this!
afternoon hut will not go through |
a skirmish. |
The Commerce contest wil] be-‘
gin at 7:30 o'clock while Staurday |
night the boys’ battle will follow!
the Winterville-Athens girls’ game, |
which will start at 7:45 o'clock. |
Admission to the double-headeri

’ BY F. M. WILLIAMS |
‘ Members of the fGeorgia and
Athens High school football teams
were entertained at g luncheon by
the Athens Rotary club yesterday,
rat the Georgian hotel, ‘
l There were approxima’ely two
{ hundred people, including the!
| guests and the Rotarians, present
! at the lunchkeon. :
’ B. M. Grier, superintendent of
|the city schools of -Athens, and
!former president of the club, actedl
jas master of ceremonies quring the
{ luncheon. He was tntroduced byl
’Claude Chance, president of the
club. ;
f Harold Hirsch, Atlanta attorney
rwho was invited to make the prin
cipal address of the meeting, was
absent because of business, but
sent a telegram expressing his re
gret at being absent.
l A song, “America The Beautiful,”
opened the program, which was ar
-anged by Dr. Pope Holliday, and‘
vas followed by the introduction of |
ome of the visitors. Among those
‘ntroduced were W. O, Payne, Fred
Smith, Charles E. Martin and all
*he coaches of the university and
the high school.
Edwin (Ole Timer) Camp, sports
writer for the Atlanta Journal, was
the first speaker at the luncheon,
Proud to be Present
“I am proud to be present today,
and to give my praise to the Geor- |
«+ig plavers,” Mr. Camp said. “ll
just want to say that all these sen
iors who are here today, have !
i achieved many things during their
football careers, but it is not the
things they have achieved that
counts most, but the manner in
which they have done it,” he con
tinued. ]
“This occasion brings to mind
something I heard the other night
on a special procgram over the ra
dio. 1t is ‘Praise is well, compli-|
ment is well, but affection is thei
| thing that counts,” Mr. Camp said. |
l“AII thése boys may go out intoi
!the world bearing our affection” |

had many good ones, but this come!
back that the team made during

Georgia's defeat gt the hands of the]

beginning of a thrée game streak !
that énded to see the Bulldogs cap- |
ture the remaining five games on
the schedule. . |
In all of the games the fans |
probably saw the outstanding play

team. Barcley has been selected
on numerous All-American elevens
and he has been named on every

that good.
. Others Outstanding
Besides the Georgia players who
performed so mnotably many other
gridsters were outstanding. Sabol,
N. C. State center, Shorty Roberts,
Don Shaffer, Hoot Gibson, Eddie

‘who distinguished themselves on

suffered their first defeat at the
hands of a southern team in recent

found many brilliant stars in the
opposing line-ups.

made almost every conference star
team and Hutson has been chosen
unanimously and has been named
on the majority of the All-Ameri

“Choo-choo”. Train, Yale's star
wingmen, were given much consid

- Football Is Still the
:
~ Greatest of Games
STOCKTON, Calif.—(#)— Amos
Alonzo Stagg, 72-year old coach
ing marvel, expects to be doing
the same thing when he's 80.
“From the way 1 feel now, I ex
pect that at 80 years I wil} still
be active and able to run about
and coach football teams,” msaid
the gridiron patriarch who now is
coaching at the College of the Pa
cific. He has some ideas to ex
press about football, also.
“I have always been in favor of
allowing teams to play during the
Christmas holidays,” he said. “I
do not think that it interferes with
scholastic work If trips are taken
during the wvacation period.”
Coach Stagg Dbelieves ticket
prices should be generally lower
and is opposed to proposals orig
inating on the West coast to in
still a “boarding hcuse” p10.:‘.,‘
wherein the players would live to-‘
gether and receive three meals a |
day, instead of one as now author- |
ized. |
The new small and more slender
bal] used this season satisfies
Coach Stagg who said “For one
thing it fits the hands of more
forward passers, although I can’t
say that it has improved the for
ward passing any.”
He predicted Stanford would
have a tough time with Alabama
in the Rose Bowl, especially in
the passing end of the game.
Tomorrow’s Farm

Yankee Southpaw Takes
' Honors in American
; League Race
t BY PAUL MICKELSON
} (Associated Press Sports Writer)
CHICAGO — (#) - Something
Ifihould be done absut rechristening
tOf star ball players.
Vernon Gomez, star southpaw of
‘the New York Yankees, is called
“Goofy” but he won the American
league pitching championship last}
season by a margin of 94 percent‘l
age points. Jerome Herman Dean
of the World's championship St.
Louis Cardinals, =xnown rar and
wide as “Dizzy” was easily the
greatest pitcher of the year in the
National league.
Final official averages, released
by the American league today, |
proved that Gomez was far from‘
“Goofy” when he got out on that |
pitching hill for the Yankees, Not
only did he win the most games,
26 in all as against five defeats,
but he also had an earned run
average of 2.33. He led the league
with 25 complete games and hurl
ed nine games in which the oppos
ing team made less than five hits.
He pitched the largest number of
innings, 282, ang topped the cir
cuit in the art of striking out bats<
men, fanning 158. His control was
s 0 good that he didn’t hit a single
batter,
Mel Harder, Cleveland’s right
hander with & roundhouse curve,
ranked second to Gomez In the
earned run average with a mark of
261, But Lynwood “Schoolboy”
Rowe was runner-up in the matter
of games won and lost with a rec
ord of 24 and 8 for .7560. The De
troit star, who tied the record by
winning 16 consecutive games, had
an earned run average of 3.45,
Lefty Grove, of the Boston Red
Sox, victimized by an ailing arm,
finished the season with an even
record of eight victories and eight
defeats. ‘
~ Jack Russell, Washington relief
pitcher, was the workhouse of the
league, pitching in 54 games as
against 47 by Buck Newsom of the
St. Louis Browns, who issued the
most walks with 149. George Blae-l
holder, St. Louis, allowed the mOSti
hits 276, while Milt Gaston of
Chicago allowed 146 runs. ‘

Burdick isn’'t going to wait any

Brudick quit his coaching job yes

return to the professional ranks,
probably as a player with the De
