| a magnificient pass to James Bailey
right halfback, who raced about
three yards for the score. Hodgson
jconverted the extra point from a
| placement,
| Dick Upchurch gcored the second
touchdown a few minutes later
when he tore through the Greens
boro line. Hodgson failed to add
the extra point,
No more scoring was done until
ithe start of the second half. Dave
' Paddock, star halfback, returned a
kick appromixately 60 yards for the
third touchdown. Paddock was
!given beautiful interference on the
,run. He scored again a few plays
{later he received another beautiful
'pass from Hodgson for the fourth
. marker,
Jack Cooper, second string full
back, was the spark plug in the
Maroons last touchdown., After
marching completely down to the
Greensboro one yard line with Coo
per doing most of the gaining,
Cooper ripped the line for the
tally. He also bucked the middle
of the line for the extra point,
The losers scored late in the final
stanza when Mc¢Donald, fullback.

but Yull of praise for the victors.
“I'm proud of the way my boys
played today,” said Coach Thomas

his team sky-rocket to fame last
January 1 with a Rose Bowl vice
tory, was as proud of that 17 tc¢

be.
“My boys didn‘t surprise me
any,” sald Thomas. “I knew they
could play the kind of football
they did this afternoon, but I was
beginning to worry about whether
they would ever do it,”” he said
About this time, Paul Bryant,
the boy who played against Ten
nessee with a broken leg, .nd who
performed in an outstanding man
neér against Georgia, walked in.
Coach “Tommy” heartily slapped
Bryant on the back, while the big
end immediately 'asked. his “boss”
about a chocolate milk he had
coming to him. The reported fail

wager was about.:

ing happily in, and Coach Thomas
slapped him on the back so hard
the 150-pound halfback almost
fell, but Riley didn’t mind—he had
helped win a great victory, and
he Aappreciaed the “hand” he got
from Thomas, 5
“I thought Kay Francis, my
center and Big Jim Whatley,
tackle, were outstanding for us,”
said Thomas. :
“But what about Riley Smith?"
the reporter wanted to know.
“Oh, yes, Smith played a won
derful game, and wasn't that a
beautiful field goal he kicked,”
the coach said, smiling. “John
Bond is a sweet running back, and
better than I thought,” Thomas
said.
And then to the Georgia dress
ing room, the reporter went.
Those Georgia boys were full of
spirit, despite the fact they had
lost. There weren't any alibis
but some of the players thought
the 15-yard penalty on Georgia
for clipping when the ball was
deep in Alabama territory in the
fourth quarter, was unfair. Char
ley Treadaway, Qquarterback, the
man who was accused of clipping
from behind on the goal line
drive, had little to say.
“If 1 clipped from behind, I'm
sorry, but the game’'s over, and
there isn’t anything I can do
about it now,” Charley said. He's
a great guy, this Charley Tread
away, and there are few better
quarterbacks in the south today.
“Tough luck, NJlows,” said
Coach Harry Mehre, coming into
the dressing room about this time.
“We'll get ’em 'next time,” the
coach said. :
“There ‘isn't much I can say
about the game,”' Mehre began,
“except that I think our offense
looked good against that great
line Alabama had. Penalties hurt
us a lot,” Mehre said.

The score came as the climax of
a long drive, which started from

even terms, neither side able to
score on frequent breaks that oc
