60 ‘fimilies who were on relief 12
mq:ths ago that they can make

peen able to liquidate approxi
mately 50 percent of loans ad
'vanced them by the government
for stock, equipment, rent and
living expenses.
In dadition to tobacco, cotton
end truck for cash projects, the
resettlers have harvested food and

Money returns from Irwinville
on farm products were approxi

Now they are well on the way to
independence with turnips in tae
garden and chickens in the coop
at home.

expressed satisfaction at results
here. .While preliminary reports
from other projects indicate sim
ilar progress in equipping fami
lies to work back onto the coun--
try’s economic system, figures are
incomplete, Vansant said.
The Irwinville project, covering
about 8,000 acres, is located near
Ocilla in Irwin county, south
Georgia. All 60 of the families
were dependent on relief a vear
ago.
Through federal agencies vary
ing amounts were advanced to
the resettlement farmers, depend
ing on needs. Notes Wwere made
and signed by the farmers for all
they received.
There was no more ‘relief,” no
more dole, no more handout. It
was a system of credit based on
possibilities of farm profit.

“Gopher” as Food
|
ee N eVe e L P
!M
) BY ROBERT BUNNELLE
j (Associated Press Staff Writer.)
{ POULAN, Ga. — (#) — Former
{ Governor Chase S. Osborn of Mich
ligan is championing the humble
| “gopher”— land tarrapin to the eity
| dwellers—as a table delicacy.
| At his winter home at ‘Possum
H’oke near here, he's raising them
|for soup meat and feels they have
| possibilities as an industry.
| Fairly common hereabouts, these
jhighland térrapin, known collo
kquiully as gophers, grow big enough
|for an adult to stand on and are
|docile enough for children to steal
irides on their backs.
| Before the War Bbetween the
| States, Governor Osborn said, they
| were looked up as a southern de
| licacy. But they lost popularity.
| Until he recently began a campaign
iof character building in their be
ihalf, most folks regarded them as
| useless. He's been “digging and
| enjoying” them for forty vears, he
| said.
| "It may be seriously stated that
| ‘gophers’ are good,” the former
Igovernor insists to humorists who
' poke fun at his colony.
“This highland terrapin has a
beautiful, hexagonally-figured, ar
mored shell. It is cleaner than the
diamond back terrapin, which is
lmore or less a scavenger. The
lhighland terrapin subsists alto
gether upon vegetable growth, par
!ticularly upon a delicate gopher
| grass.” . . §
! The former governCr started his
| “farm” more or less by accident.
| The forebears of his present colony
|he has named “Marindy” and “Cy.”
| He believes there are real possibi
[ties in the “gopher” ag an ingre
idient of ritzy stews and soups: The
|meat is fine flavored and delicate,
| much like that of the well regard
led diamond back.
| If it makes one feel better aboud
|eating “‘gophers,” he added, you can
!call them by their right name—
| Exrobates Polyphemus.” |

“DARK - HORSE™ A
GRID WORK BEGINS
Alabama Again Favored |
By Experts; Vols !
Ranked High |
. - |
-By KENNETH GREGORY ‘
Associated Press Sports Writer ‘
ATLANTA—(®)—Tootball, shunt-‘
ed to the packground for several
months, is ready to return to the!
sports columns. i
The opening salute to the« 1935
season comes Monday. ;
While the public enjoys the La
bor Day holiday, hundredas of am-~
bitious youngsters will check in
for the opening day of practice in}
the Southeastern Conference, hope
ful of “making the team” and!
gaining recognition on ‘the grid
iron. |
As usual, there is an air of pes
simism in the coaching quarters.
Gloomily they speak of losses in
the line and the backfield and
wonder where replacements will
come from,
. But, there are weeks of time for
advance preparations and despite
the wailing there is a general im
pression that the 1935 conference
teams as a whole will pack more
power and display more versatility
than the elevens of a year ago.
For the most part, the pilots
have again placed Alabama “on
the spot” as a potential pre-sea
son champion of the big thirteen,
predicting optimistically that the
Crimson Tide, while weaker than
its Rose Bowl chamvion squad, will
still be stronger than the other
members.
. The *“experts’ generally agree
that Alabama is the team to beat
for the title, with T ennessee,
Louisiana State and Tulane the
ranking threats. Georgia is hailed
as a *“dark horse” in the race,
Alabama lost many good play
ers, including Dixie Howell, Don
Hutson, Bill Lee, Charlie Marr and
Bob Morrow, however, Fr a n k'
Thomas and his ¢oaching staff. have
a fine list offreplacements,. players
who gained ‘experience under fire!
last fall. ¥Heading the list is'
Riley Smith, recognized asg thel
outstanding quarterback in the;
South last season, and Joe Riley,
a fleet-footed halfback, consideredt
almost as good as Dixie Howell.
Losses at Tulane were heavy,
the entire team that started the
Sugar Bowl battle, in which- the
Green Wave annih‘ilated Temple,
finishing their collegiate years. The
hopes for Tulane are based on a
fine lot of juniors and sophomores.
Tennessée and Louisiana State
suffered less through graduation
than either Alabama or Tulane,
but the outlook for the Vols and|
the Tigers hinges upon the recov
ery of two sterling halfbacks, in
jured ghfle playing summer base
ball. ow Abe Mickal, triple
threat L. S§. U. halfback, and Phil
Dickens, speedy Tennessee ball-;
carrier, as they go the Vols and‘
Tigers will go, they say. x
1t is very likely 'that Alabama
Poly will prove one of the biggest
surprises of the year. The Plains
men, with an eleven made up for
the most part of sophomores, were
tough customers for all opponents
in 1934, With the experience gain
ed under fire carried by these
juniors and a promising group of
sophomores on hand, Jack Meag
her’s Tigers may go places.
Kentucky, boasting one of the
South’s best halfbacks in Bert
Johnson, 190-pound pile driver,
shcould “be improved, with he]p!
coming along from an undefeated
freshman team. Mississippi and
Mississippi State also will be
stronger, but may be a year offi
from theé role of championship|
contender. =
Desipte. the prospect of a weak|
line, Florida should be better than |
a year ago and the outlook is
hopeful at Vanderbilt, where Ra.vi
Morrison will install. his “aeriali
circus.” The Commodores are cer-|
tain to be strong, but it may take |
a year for the Nashville team to
adapt itself to the new gridiron |
strategy of Morrison. |
The hopes at Georgia Tech and
Sewanee are none too bright.f

AUBURN NOT 10 BE
“HOLD EM” TEAM
e !
This Season"s Eleven Will
Carry Big Scoring Threat
Coach Predicts
AUBURN, Ala—(#)—Take it
from Coach Jack Meagher, Auburn
will not be a “hold 'em” football
team in 1935.
The Plainsmen boasted a fine
defensive line last year, but lost
most of their major engsgements
by close scores, because of the
lack of an, offensive able to con
vert scoring chances into points.
But this year, Meagher says,
will be a different story.
“We're going to hold onto that
ball and let some of the other
fellows try to hold us,” he said.
And, to make his prophecy
come true, he has labored long
and hard with a group of new
backs, most of whom he expects
to use freely in the lineup for im
portant contests. ‘
New men include Billy Hitch
cock, brother of the Jimmie Hitch-‘
cock, regarded as Auburn’s ace
back; Jimmie Fenton, brother of
last yvear's star end, and two men
- who have returned to the foot
ilmll wars after having been ab
sent from the campus—Dennis
“Bunky” O'Rourke and Floyd Me
| Elroy.
' Both the latter are fullbacks,
but either can be shifted to half.
' Mitchell, Karam, Tipper, Blake,
’Bentley and Whitten are back
‘frum last year's eleven.
~ Joe Stewart, a starter at right
halfback most of the 1935 season,
will probably be the first string
‘qn:u'torlmck this year.
The line, good last year, is ex
pected to be one of the toughest
in the Southeastern conference.
Morris and. Taves at ends, Pater
son and Rodgers at the tackles,
and Gilbert at center, are return
ing with the guards to be manned
by McCroskey and Gantt, if they
can beat off sophomore opposi
tion.
The schedule:
September 27, Birmingham-Sou
thern at Montgomery (night);
October 3, Tulane at New Or
leans; October 12, Tennessee at
Birmingham; October 19, Ken
tucky at Montgomery; October 26,‘
{Puke at Durham; November 2, L.
