GRID CLINIG HERE 13
A GREAT SUCCESS;
TEAMS TIE. 7 TD ]
Many High School Coach
es and Players Are Pres
ent for First Clinic
BY GUY TILLER
It was Dbaseball weather, two
state basketball tournaments were
being held, yet the football clinic
for high school coaches and the
game between “I. B. U” and
“Georgia,” which ended in a 7 to
7 tie, stole the sport spotlight here
today.
Thirty-five high school coaches
and mnearly 50 high school football
hopefuls retired to the &tands, as
did Harry Mehre, following the
conclusion of the first annual clin
ic and watched two Bulldog teams,
one garbed in black shirts and
bearing the label *“L. 8. U.” the
other sporting red jerseys and de
picting Georgia, do battle,
Coached by Vernon Smith and
Sam McAllister, the “Tigers” open
ed the first offensive blast in the
third quarter when they scored in
six plays. The march, following
a listless first half, was so quick
that cne could hardly realize the
score had been made.
Lew Young, who is waging a
merry battle with Wallace Miller
and Andy Roddenberry for the
quarterback position, took the
“Georgia” kick-off and returned it
58 wyards to the 22 yard line, be
fore Roddenberry, the last man in
his path for a touchdown, brought
him down.
Bill Hartman, Glenn Johnson
and Paul Causey, playing in the
backfield with Young, alternated in
bucking the Iline. Their efforts
placed the ball on the 4 yard line.
Hartman then drowve to the 2 yard
striple and Causey, on the next play
hurdled the masg to score. Causey
also made the extra point and
Coaches Enright and Baskin, “Geor
gia” col}ches, rushed in line re
}placemen’ts to ovércome the 7 to
0 lead.
~ Taking the kick-off, Rodden
berry rammed up to the 32, And
erson, Tinsley and Hartman, be
hind the effective blocking of Rod
denberry, took the ball to the “L.
S. U.” 34 yard line. ¥iere the most
beautifully executed . play of the
afternoon took place, Anderson
received the ball from center, fak
ed an end run, and faded back to
pass. He stood on the 50 wyard
marker and spotted Tinsley elud
ing the safey man and let fly a
perfect pass that Tinsley caught,
without changing hisg stride, on
the goal line. Anderson made the
extra point and Georgia was now
tied to L. S. U. 7 to 7, and it re
mained that way.
No other scoring threatg were
made. The play of Roddenberry,
Gillespie, sophomore end, Lump
kin, who was immovable on de
fense, Tinsley, Anderson, Holland,
speedy but lightweight fullback,
Harry Stevens, who gained much
needed experience during the =kir
mish, and Bill ¥artman were
among the outstanding players in
the game. The offensive work of
both teams was handicapped as the
players diagnosed the plays well.
No one wag injured in the frolle.

U. outfought and gained a decision
over Mickey Radutzky, Georgia,
to take possession of the welter
weight title,
Radutzky, the defending cham
pion, waded through his first two
fights in easy fashion, demonstrat

ered the punch and won over a‘
tired righter. ]

Captain Cliff Cagle led the Can
ton attack will 11 points and play
ed his usual good game. He was
his team’s mainstay both on of

by the scrappy Roberta five. For
the losers the work of Tex Spillers
and Buck Pearson was outstand
ing,
~ Alton Martin, one of the best
individual players in the tourna

to victory. He scored 17 points
some of them at opportune mom
