Georgia Leaves For Tennessee Invasion
Athens High Teams Play Washington Tonight; Meet Dacula Saturday

Coach Enright to Shift
Pizvers, Unless Improve
ment Shown in Contests
ELECT CO-CAPTANIS
Harrisen Anderson and Frank
Johrson wene named co-cap
tains of the Georgia basket
ball team for the second suc
cessive year last night, after
Coack Rex Enright had en
dorsed the co-captain idea.
Anderson and Johnson led the
Bulldogs last season, as co
captains, This is 2ach man’s
final year at Georgia. John
son is a forawrd and Ander
son a guard.
University of Georgia’s basket
ball team left here teday for a
road jaunt into Tennessee for
games with Chattanooga and the
University of Tennessee, tonighe
and tomorrow,
Tonight the Bulldog cagers meet
Chagtanooga in Chattanooga and
tomorrow night Tennessee will be
the foe. Georgia is expected to
have a hard time in both contests,
and will be strictly the underdog
in the Tennessee clash.
Coach Rex Enright, disappointea
in showings made by his team so
far this season, is hoping for =
successful road trip, and if it is
not there will be a lot of shifting
done when Georgia returns to
Woodruff hall here for practice.
Coach Enright still believes his
first five men are capable of do
ing better than they have done so
far, and will give them two more
chances, before any of them are
replaced. The two chances will
be this week.
Lack of practice, and failure of
players to respond quickly to train
ing, has hampered the Georgians in
all games thig year. Not one of
the players is in good shape as
yet, and until they do get in shape,
there isn’'t much chance against
the teams that follow Tennessee
on the schedule,
Georgia hag a veteran team, and
there lgshould be one of the bhest
in the Southeastern conference, In
Frank Johnson, forward, and Andy
Anderson, guard, the Bulldogs boast
two of: the best sharpshooters in
the south. Both are deadly from
anywhere back of the foul line.
Jack Farren's return is expecte
ed to aid the Georgians no little.
Tarren is a rangy fellow from Ma
con, and his heighth will help
plenty, especially under the bas
ket, and in getting the tip-ofl.
Farren has been out for a couple
of weeks with injured ankles, but
is okay for the two games this
week.,
The starting lineupg for Georgia
in the Chattanooga game, although
not official, will probably find
Frank Johnson and Jimmy Moore
at forwards, Farren or Harrold at
center: and Andy Anderson and
Harry Harman at guards,
Should Harrold start at center,
it will be the same team that rep
yesented Georgia last year, with
the exception of Moore, Al Mazo,
Thompson, Richards, Bowden ana
one or two otheérg will make the
trip to Tennessee, probably.

| NEW YORK.— (#) — Wilmer
Allison, despite his recent defeat
by Arthur Hendrix, young Flor
ida player, again led as a candi
date for the United States Davis
ICup team today after topping the
: National tennis rankings for the
second year,
The rankings, marked by a
wholesale revision in the ‘first
ten,” also placed the youthful
Donald Budge of Oakland, Calif.,
and Bryan M. (Bitsy) Grant of
Atlanta: in the forefront of Cup
prospects.
Budge, ranked ninth last year,
was advanced to second place, and
Grant was moved from tenth to
third. The 31-year-old Allison
congueror of England’'s Fred
Perry in the National c¢hampion
ships, has been a “first ten” piay
er for eight successive years.

Frank X. Shields, Sidney Wood
and Gregory . Mangin, New
Ylc.k; Frank Parker, Milwaukee;
J. Gilbert Hall, Orange, N. J.;
Wilmer Hines, Columbia, 8. C;.
ard Berkeley Pell, New York.
Shields and Wood, who is in an
lewa hospital after an emergency
appendicitis operation, also are
censidered likely candidates for
Davis Cup berths, as is the youth
ful Paker.
Allison and John Van Ryn, the
No. 1 doubles team, probably will
get the call for the international
competition, Hines and Henry M.
Culley of Santa Barbara, Calif.,

the squad as a reserve team.
{Budge and Gene Mako of Los
Angeles were rated the No, 2
,doubleu combination.
The rankings list Helen Hull
Jacobs of Berkeley, Calif., as No.
1 woman player for the fourth
successive year.
Her only rival for the place,
Mrs. Helen Wills Moody, was
unranked because of suflicient
data. She played only in England
last summer, winning the Wim

Better Protection
For Prep Gridsters
Is Being Considered
| BY WILLIAM WEEKS
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
| CHICAGO — ®) — Ways and
‘means of providing additional pro
ltection for pre football players
were under consideration today as
'the rules committee of the Nation
al Federation of High School Ath
}letic Associations met for its an
nual twoday session, |
It was likely, said Henry V.|
'Porter of Chicago, secretary of thei
committee, that the intermission
time between periods would bel
lengthened. |
Porter said statistics indicate
most of the serious injuries on|
prep gridirons occur near ihe start
of the second half. TFeeling that!
lack of proper warming up may be
partly responsible, coaches, in ans
wers to questionnaires, have sug-!
gested an extra three minuteg he-!
tween halves, devoted to limbering
exercises. |
The rule prohibiting roughing,
or tackling a ball carrier after he
has gone out of bounds, was due
for strengthening.
While no drastic chapges in the
rules were planned, questionnaire
responses indicated that the for
ward passing regulations needed
clarification. National Federation
rules permit passing from any
where behind the line of serim
mage, and some difficulty with
tosses from beyond the line has
been encountered.

Collegiate Sports Highlights
During 1935 Are Discussed By
Major Griffith; 1936 Scanned
President of National Col
legiate Athletic Associa
tion Gives Views
(This is the seventh of a
series written especially for the
Associated Press by national
sports leaders on results of
1935 and prospects for 1936.)
BY MAJOR JOHN L. GRIFFETH
(President, National Collegiate
Athletic Association.)
CHICAGO — (&) — EBEach ath
letic year is very much like the
ones that have gone before. Chan
ges in college athletics are usually
of an evolutionary rather than a
revolutionary nature.
Yet there are a few outstanding
features of athletics as developed
in the colleges in 1935 which might
be mentioned. First the attendance
at college football gameg was im
proved over the attendance in 1934.
Free scoring was very much in
evidence too. W'hether or not this
is because the coaches have pretty
much standardized the technic of
defense and are still devising new
methods of advancing the ball, an
unusually large number of high
scoring games were recorded.
Some have suggested that more
athletes playing on college teams
were paid by the college or by
outside individuals or groups for
playing that was true in other
years,
There were at least 30,000 men
on the various college varsity
squads. Over a million students
attend the institutions of higher
learning and there are several mil
lion alumni, most of whom are
tremendously interested in college
athletics. It may be assumed that
some of these 30,000 players were
aided contrary to the codes.
The individual colleges, the col
lege conferences and then National
Collegiate Athletic Association all
recognize that some people cheat
in competition for high school ath
letes. These institutions and or
ganizations are doing what they
can to discourage these illegitimate
practices.
Basketball last season not only
held it own in popular favor, but
in many sections made progress
New rules have tended to speed up
the game.
The high point of interest in col
lege track was reached in the Na
tional Collegiate Athletic Associa
tion meet held last June at Berke
ley, Calif., and won by the Uni
versity of Southern <California.
The Olympic track games com
mittee under the direction of Wil
liam Bingham, of Harvard univer
sity, has been making plans for the
Olympic games this summer in
Berlin.
Indications are that the United
States track and field team will
be well qualified to defend cham
pionship honors won by the 193%
team in Los Angeles.
‘Wle may look back upon the year
1935 in college athletics as a year
which showed some improvement
over the year before and ag one
which presages an even better year
in 1936,
