b For the past four years the
~ Crackers have had the best
. team since 19256 — at the first
of the gsason. But before the

® Frankly, we don't believe the
“Crackess have the best team in the

By F. M. WILLIAMS

with = victories over Eatonton,
Bishop, Good Hope and Athen:
CTC, respectively, in opening

margin of one run. Athens Beat
Batonten 6 to 5, Whitehall down
ed Bishop 3 to 2, and Statham
eased out a victory over Good
Hope, 1 to 0. Greenshoro smoth
ored Athens CCC under a 12 to 7
score.
The Statham-Good Hope game
was probably the hest of the day,
with Anderbon of Good Hope los-\
ing a four hit performance to the
Statham lads. But young Boyce
Holliday and Haygood, Statham
pitchers, outdid Anderson, and‘
hurled a two-hit game. Holliday |
pitched the first five innings and
did not relinquish a hit. Grizzle
scored the only run of the game
in the first inning.
Whitehall and Rishop staged an
air-tight exhibition, with the first
mentioned team finally edging
out a victory. Ruarks and Cun
ningham did the pitching, with
Ruarks giving Whitehall 8 hits
and Cunningham letting - Bishop
down with 7.
There were two home runs hit,
one for Whitehall and one for
Bishop. Williams connected for
the cirenit swat for Whitehall
while Ginn, who scored both
Bishop runs, hit a four-hagger
for his team. -
Woodie Gann and Sexton tied
up in a good picthers battle in the
Athens-Eatonton game, with each
giving up 6 singles. Athens made
the mosLt of its hits, however, and
came out ahead. It was a thrill
ing game, and several hundred
spectators were kept on their feet
throughout the game, Bill Cauthen
hit well for Athens.
C. L. Saxon, Burke and Butler
hit well for Greensboro as their
team easily won from the CCC
boys. Bradberry pitched the en
tire game, and coasted after the
e rly innings. Hunt, third base
man for the campers, led his
team’s hitting with four for five.
Thornton started in the box, and
was succeeded in the eighth by
Lowry, who finished the game.

o DAY BIKE RAGE
STARTS HERE TODAY
Chi Phi and S.ALE. Boys
To Participate in
Long Event
Athens' first six day bike race
pitting the Chi Phi fraternity
against the 8. A, E. fraternity,
will begin this afternoon at 3:00
o'clock in front of the Athens Sport
ing Goods store.
Night and day, regardless of the
weather, the race will continue un
til next Saturday afternoon at 3
o'clock, with each fraternity hav
ing posted SIOO forfeit money to
guarantee that they will finish the
race, regardless of what happens.
Each time a rider finishes a lap
he mus: sigp his name on a book
to be kept 24 hours at the Phi Phi
house and 24 hours at the S, A, E.
house.
It has been decided that if either
one fails to complete the race, the
money will be given to charity.
After starting in front of the
Sporting Goods Store, the race will
continue on oue Prince aveénue, up
Hill and down Milledge to Lump
kin. The racers will then preceed
down Lumpkin back to town, and
start the same course over again.
The Banner-Herald was inform
ed by the two frats last night that
th'e paving of Lumpkin would make
no difference, as only a small
stretch would be torn ap by the
workers and that at that stretch
the bike riders would take to the
sidewalk.
One fraternity pointed out that
the work en Lumpkin street would
be in favor of the race as the
traffic on that street would be cut
down almost to nothing and that
the teams would have no automo
biles to combat.
And getting down to the prize
of the race, the losing group will
set the winners up to a big ban
quet at the Georgian Hotel.
There has been one change in
just how long each man can ride.
At first it was decided to let ev
ery rider go for an hour, but last
night it was announced that the
rule had been changed and that
each participant can ride just as
many ‘hours at a time as he wish
es. The participants must ride one
‘hour at least, though.
The public is invited to see the
grand start this afternoon, and
much interest will be shown,

WRESTLING GARD 10
FEATURE 7 WOMEN
Women Wrestlers Make
First Appearance in
' Athens This Week
TFeaturing the first female wrest
ling match ever to be presented
here, Athens regular weekly wrest
ling card will be helé Wednesday
night with three 1-hour limit grap
pling matches. S
Hair-pulling, Kicking, scratching,
biting and slapping galore are ex
pected to feature the main attrac
tion between Misses Billie Devette
and Flora Latour.
These two females should give
women wrestling a first-class place
among the Athens boxing and grap
pling fans and the two members of
the fairer sex are expected to stage
a fine show,
In another one of the bone
bending contests, Sgt. Harry Nix
on, a tough old army man, will
take on the famous Mohammed Ali
the Arabian champ.
So confident are both of the
participants of victory, that this
match will be staged on a winner
take-all basis, and this bount pro
mises to be one of the best ever
put on in the local arena.
Ali has yet to lose a match here,
and is not intending to do so Wed
nesday, and will go into the match
a slight favorite. He will put o6ut
all that he has in an effart to pin
the broad shoulders of Nixon to the
mat. . 3
Unlike his foe, Nixon has never
fought here before, but is very po
pular in Atlanta and other southern
wrestling circles, where he has
built up a great reputation,
In the first match of the evening,
Bull Schmidt and Totem Pole An
derson will mix it up and should
put on another great exhibition.
On last week’s card, Schmidt was
winner via a foul while Anderson’s
first appearance here was spoiled
when Ali took his measure.
Anderson, who hails from the
frozen north, is, however, a much
better performer than he looked to
be last week and will give Atlanta's
Schmidt a real tussle.
The card will start at 8:15 o'clock
and all ladies’ accompanied by a
paid 40 cent ticket, will be admitted
free,

THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
Last Two Events Decide
Meet; Final Score
Is 70 to 56
By F. M. WILLIAMS
Coach Wilbur Hutsell and his
Auburn track. team has made an
other successful invasion of Ath
ens. y
The Plainsmen, although scor
ing only six first places to Geor
zia's eight, took enough seconds
and thirds to score T 0 points
against the Bulldogs here Satur
day, and thereby walked off with
the meet, 70 to 56. It was the elev
enth win Auburn has scored in
14 years of competition with Geor
gia. The other three ended in
ties.
It was a close affair, with the
teams deadlocked at 54-54 with
two events to be finished, but
Auburn placed first and second in
each, while Georgia managed to
get third in both. The events
were the broad jump and the 880-
yard run.
The track was not in very good
condition, due to a rain early in
the day, but some very good
times were set. The feature of the
entire meet was the 100-yard
dash, won by Wright, of Auburn.
There were six men entered in the
meet, and they were grouped so
clogely it was nearly impossible to
judge the race. 3
Shorter Rankin, converted 880
star, won the mile race for Geor
gia., with the fine time-of 4 min
utes and 31 seconds, beating the
Southeastern conferencg cham
pion, Pihl, of Auburn, by about 30
vards. Evan Major defeated the
same man in the two mile run,
chalking up a time of 10 minutes,
21.1 seconds. >
“Spec” Townes, Georgia's high
scorer with 14 points, ran the 220-
vard low hurdles in 25.5 seconds,
just 2.1 seconds above the South
eastern record. In the opinion of
Percy Beard, world champion
hurdler, who saw the meet,
Townes is one of the best pros
pects in the world.
g Auburn and Georgia have met
