Maroon Boys, Girls Blasted By Both
Madison Teams; Athens’ Jayvees Win
Bill Jago, getting 29 points, led Madison to victory over the fight
ing Maroons for the second time this season Friday night in that
city. Madison led the whole way with the score being 55 to 20 at the
final whistle Athens hadn’t scored at the end of the first quarter.
‘"“N—z;tfi'airiwailliams, early in the
second quarter, started the scor
ing for Athens, p_qtgipg in a foul
shot and then a field goal. After
this Athens made two more goals
but Madison, having a lead, and
holding it, made many goals to
lead at the half 27 to 7 despite
what Athens could do to hold the
score down.
Elliott Morris played a fast
game and handled the ball nicely
for Athens, making eight points
and leading the Athens scorers.
Williams was next with six.
Bill Morris of Madison got ten
points and David Barnett made
eight. The Madison team, playing
hard and clean ball, led the whole
way with a safe margin, just the
opposite from the time they in
vaded Athens, for a ding-dong
battle.
Jayvees Win
The Athens High Jayvees de
feated Madison’s “B” team 25 to
18, and chalked up their fifth
straight victory.
John Marshall, center for the
Athens five, tallied nine points
and Tommy Bentley, local guard,
chalked up seven while “Junior”
Moody made five.
. For Madison, the scoring honors
go to Wyman Carmichael and
Harold Jones, both of whom got
six. |
Norris Giles for the victors
scored four points.

Rough Tussle Ends [n
63-57 Win For 'Gators
By EDWIN POPE
Sports Editor
To employ a time-worn but yet
effective phrase, the Florida Ga
tors “came, saw and conquered”
here last night as they blasted
the Georgia Bulldogs, 65-57.
The Alligators frailed at the
start, but held a 38-34 lead at
halftime and went on further out
into the forefront after intermis
sion to win without a serious
threat from the Georgians.
Arnold Delaperriere, Bobby
Russell, Ross “Shorty” Maddox
and Eli Maricich, four Georgia
regulars, fouled out of the rough
contest, which was left entirely
in the hands of one official—
Pete Meiton of Atlanta — by the
illness of Claud Bond, expected to
be the other whistle-tooter.
Hartsaw Shines
Stumpy Pete Hartsaw, clever
mite from Lakeland, Fla., tossed
in 26 points with eight field
goals and ten Annie Oakleys tn‘
lead all scoring. Maddox hit 15
and Russell 13 for Georgia, but.‘
it was the little five-foot-six
incher who won the hearts andi
plaudits of the crowd. |

Girls Beat
Maroons 38-23
Playing their second engage
ment of the season with Jefierson
High, the Maroon girl basketeers
went down to a 23-38 defeat here
on Saturday evening. .
The quick thinking and seedy ac
tions of Sut Finch in gaining for
the Jefferson team 14 of its 38
points was a great asset to their
team. Folowing up with 12 points
each, Massey and Ash scored the
remainipg points.
With 12 points to her credit,
Martha Elder regarded her usual
position as high scorer for Ath
ens Showing definite improve
ment over their last game, were
guards Dottie Warren and Mar
garet Ansley who did some oui

Jefferson has been one of the
few teams w#th which Athens
could stand up and the Maroons
should be commended for their
fighting spirit. . 5 i

Georgia’s grid slate may be
the first one in modern his
tory that doesn’t list any /
“breathers.”
Chattanooga, Florida and
Kentucky may have been con
sidered bush-league calibre
in ’45, but there are various
factors that may keep these
three schools from playing
doormat next season.
At ’Nooga almost the entire re
mainder of the squad returns. And
fans may remember that “Scrap
py” Moore’s lads wound up the
season in a blaze of glory, after
giving Georgia a terrific struggle.
Kentucky has a new céach—and
a 2 good one—and those who know
will tell you that the Wildcats
have had the best material of al
most any southern school for the
past two seasons. “Mentor trou
ble” held the Wildcats down, but
they should be ready for next
year. :
Florida, which has had its bad
days, what with dabbling from
petty politicians and all-around |
interference from. subway alumn
of the state, should get back on its
feet at least partially with an
able tactician as mentor. They
suffer from no dearth of prep ma
terial. That is for sure.
From what can be found,
Tech and Clemson may not be
bowl stuff for ’46, but both
schools will be amply stock
ed with pre-war material.
Georgia Tech, under Dodd,
will gain impetus.
Temple is an eastern power
and must be dealt with early
in the season. The Owls will
be a headache.
' As for Alabama, Oklahoma A.
& M. and Miami, the powers that
be are the only ones who can pre
dict the winners of these dogfighis
with Georgia. The Bulldogs would
be considered a powerful squad
‘indeed.ifv they came out victors in
only two of these battles. Three
‘bowl champions such as these are
not,to be thought lightly of.
~ Alabama is loaded for bear, as
usual. ‘A..& M. will make another
strong bowl bid, #nd Miami suf
fers little losses from this season’s
powerful squad.
‘lt is too early to go into
prospects for the Georgia
eleven. The only certainties
are that an excellent pre-war
coaching staff will again be
at the reins and several sea
sened - strategists, including
Hillyer C. King, Harry Atwell,.

GET ’EM EARLY
Fans who don’t get their Geor

ducats as soon as they’re put on
the block will err badly. If tickets
are offered for sale, they’ll prob
ably be snapped wup within a
month at most.
The best and most pleasant
form of gratitude that Athen

home slate—Clemson, Ken

Alabama and Tech—is to ai
tend ALL THE GAMES, and
not just the so-called big ’uns.

Facing Deficit
~ Last year the City government
took in $579,135.90 and spent
$618,155.90. ‘'The budget for 194
has not been adopted. If the ex
penditures remain the same and
the revenues remain the same the
|City will end the year with 4
deficit of around $40,000. Last
year it spent about $39,000 more
than it received, but it escaped
ending the year in the red by dip
ping into a cash balance of ap
proximately $55,000 with which it
began 1945. It ended 1945 with
around $15,000 cash balance.
Some members of Council fake
the position that Council has 2
good opportunity to win public
support for more revenue by re
pegfing the 1946 License Tax Op
dinance and ‘“‘beginning all over;”
ipreparing a Dbudget, including
needed city improvements, and
telling the peeple what the situa
tion is. No attempt is being made
to pressure the Counciliien politi
cally into repealing the “Inequity
Ordinance” as some businessmen
call it. Individuals have appealed
to the sense of justice and fairness
of the Councilmen. “If that fails”
one merchant said, “we can’ get
it repealed. But I believe that fac
ed with the unfairness of this
measure, a majority, perhaps the
entire Council, will vote to repeal.
It’s never too late to reetify a mis
take or to correct ap injustice.”
Anoiher articie on what the
- business people are thinking
about the 1946 “Inequity Tax
License” and how it affects
their attitude toward tax pol
icies will follow. '
