Local Men Predict Ga.-N. C. Score
NORTH CAROLINA is favored to defeat Georgia in Chapel Hill Satur
day, but if seven Jocal business men know what they are talking abouit,
the Bulldogs will do a hme upsetting, . :
We decided to ask some of the footbali-minded g\ents of the city
what they thought of the Georgia-Tarheel fracas, and by a unanimous
vote tney all picked Georgia o wii, the maigin ranging irom one 1o
two touchdowiis. >3
Most of the fellows had their answers all ready and didu’t have
to be pumped for the information. They seemed to have been
thinking about the situation very intently and were just waiting
for someone to ask their opinion. We like to interview pecple like
{hat. It eliminates the journalistic “needling” process.
Well, here’s what the boys 'say. Take the dope for what it's
worth,
J. B. ALEXANDER, the wood products man and rabid Bulldog
rooter —— “Georgia 21, Carolina 13. The Tarheels lost a lot of line
power which I think will be their downfail. I sincerely believe the
Bulldogs will win.”
CLYDE FITZGERALD, Manager of J. C. Penney’s —— “Georgia
2], Carolina 7. North Carolina’s losses in the line can’t be replaced
this year, while Georgia’s forward wall is as good, or better, that last
year's. Overall Carolina isn’t as strong, and I believe Georgia is strong
er with a much better running game.”
C. 0. BAKER, local lawyer — “Georgia. 24, Carolina 18. I base
this opinion on only one thing—that's just what I think.”
GEORGE POSCHNER, former Georgia end and War vet who is
spending the season here in Athens—— “Georgia 24, Carolina 14. If
Georgia can keep these two ends, Weiner and Powell, from getting
too far down field on-those passes they will be alright. The line must
rush hard and fast. North Carolina is a one-man team, while the Bull
dogs are better balanced and in top physical condition,”
JUDGE OLIN PRICE, recorder’s court judge — ‘“Georgia 13,
Carolina 7. I base this prediction on Georgia’s playing so far, especial~
ly their running game. Still the Bulldogs must contend with Charlie
Justice, but I like Georgia to win.”
DAN HILL, manager of the local theaters —— “Georgia 20, Caro
iina 7. I believe that Georgia has the better ball club. North Carolina
lost some good players in the line and have too many sophomore re
placements. However, the Tarheels have three top players in ends
Weiner and Powell and tailback Justice.”
JULIAN COX, local realtor —— “Georgia 20, Carolina 6. North
Carolina has Justice and a couple of ends, but the line is inexperienced.
I believe Georgia is keyed up for this game and will be ready. It looks
like a ‘natural’.”
THAT’S WHAT the fellows thought about the big game. All of
them could be close and some right. We’ll just have to wait and see.
The Georgia players climb aboard a Seaboard airliner here tonight
enroute to the game. They will get into Durham early tomorrow morn
ing where they will workout in the afternoon. The team will not go
to Chapel Hill until Saturday morning.
Bozo Clodfeller asked me to remind you people to be sure and
watch for his prediction of the Georgia-Carolina game tomorrow.
Bozo seems to have the real “inside” dope, In fact, sometimes I
think he is the dope in person. However, he is usually prefty near
right so you might make a iasi-minute check with the oid boy on
tomorrow’s sports page,

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Sept. 29—
(AP) — Doctors kept the Yale
football squad under ciose scruti
ny today because one player has
developed infantile paralysis. The
Fordham game, scheduled far Sat
urday_in the Yale Bowl, has been
cancelled.
Whether other gawces on the
varsity schedule, particularly that
against Columbia in New York a
week from Saturday, would be
called off remained uncertain. One
university official said that would
depend on whether additional cas
es of polio develop among players
exposed to the disease.
The University anaounced the
cancellation of the Fordham game
late yesterday. It was the first
time since the bowl was opened in
1%14 that a game had been called
off.

“No other precautionary meas

The stricken player, Richard D.
Liechty, a 22-year-old back from
Lake Geneva, Wis., is one of three
Yale seniors to be afflicted by po

SPORTS
ROUNDUP
BY HUGH FULLERTON, JR.
- NEW YORK, Sept. 20—(AP)—
So far there hasn’'t been any re
port of a kick from Casey Stengel,
but you can add one wore to the
heated discussions of th. 1949
baseball season if Phil Marchildon
pitches against the Y.nkees today.
... Connie M.ck, the Athletice
venerable manager, said he would
pitch Marchildon against the
Yanks because of protests when
he used Phil against the Red Sox.
... The point is that Phi!, a lame
arm flinger, has huried in only
five games this season and has a
record of no victories and three
defeats. , . It sounds almost like
conceding the game, and after
what happened to the A’s yester
day, maybe they mignt -as well
concede. . . . But Marchildon isn’t
exactly a pushover. Coach Jimmy
Dykes says: “He can throw as hard
as anyone in this league if he
makes up his mind. He may give
these guys trouble.” . . . And Phil
has been telling the Fhiladelphia
writers just the same thing—he's
going out with the idea of acting
real tough, if he can anly find the
plate.
HI, OLE BUDDY
When Casey Stengel came out to
the bench just before vesterday’s
game, Dykes grinned and motion
ed as if he were tossing a ball in
the air. Then he explained: “When
we were both managing in the
Coast League, the umpires called
a game one day because of dark
ness. We were a run ahead and I
didn’t even know they had called
it. I went out to coach at third
base,“then noticed thai the umps
and all the players waie gone. . . .
There was nobody around but old
Case. He was tossing u ball up in
the air and catching 1t in front of
the crowd and mutterng: “I'm 60
years old and I can sce It ain’t
dark’. . . . I went over ard asked:
‘Why don’t you protest it?’ . ..
Case just moaned: ‘Who can I pro
test too? You? The umpires are all
gone.” s

Henry Alexander Love, jr.,
Georgia’s oldest football player at
26 years of age, had a four-year
layoff from the gridiron. sport be
fore resuming it here in the fall of
1946.
The 185-pounder joined the
army in 1942 following his grad
uation from Lanier high in Macon,
where he was all-GIAA guard in
1941. He did not get a chance to
play football in the service.
He played in only one game as
a freshman in 1946, saw .a little
more action in 1947 but it was
1948 before he earned a letter. He
was tried at defensive end in the
1949 spring practice but returned
to guard this fall, He’s a regular
left guard on offense.
The only post graduate student
on the squad, Love received his
degree in Physical Education last
June.
Patsy» Rocco, Georgia defensive
safety man from Chicago, has a
pair of working gloves tacked on
the wall of his dormitory room.
Why? “If I ever think football gets
too tough,” he explains, “I look
at those gloves and think about
what I'd be doing back home if I
quit school.”
Eli Maricich Mean
Trouble For Carolin
By The Associated Press
At Chapel Hill Saturday, North Carolina’s Tar Heels
will do well to remember a Chicago lad—too small to play
football when he was in high schoo.l
The Boy—Eli Maricich—is grown up now, He weighs
170 pounds and is plenty tougn from four years with the
Marines an dthree with the Georgia Bulldogs.
Some say he is even better than
he was a year ago—when the Tar
Heels first met him. On that
memorable occasion, he snapped
up a pass from that high flying
Tar Heel, Choo Choo Justice, and
pranced 78 yards to a Georgia
touchdown.
" The reason North Carolina
should watch him is that he’ll be
trying to do the same thing Satur
day. He was top man in. the nation
last year at running back pass in
terceptions. He tied for total in
terceptions. 3
For the information of the Tar
Heels—and others who may be
interested—Eli runs from either
left or right halfback position.
What’s more, he’s ¢oing to try to
do it at Chapel Hill in a way to
bring the most grief to the North
Carolinians. 3
Elsewhere in the Southeasiern
Conference, Vandy Coach Bill Ed
wards says he has about figured
out what was wrong with his
Commodores in that 12-7 licking
Georgia - Tech = gave . them. He
didn’t throw in enough reserves.
And, he explains, he exnects to
remedy that defeet in the Alabama
game at Nashville Saturday.
Alabama Coach Red Drew says
he will be ready for the reserves—
with the air full of passes. He
gave most of the Crimson Tide
drill yesterday—the final rough
work—to passes, both on offense
and defense. He noticed improve
ment.
Passes also occupied the Green
Wave at Tulane, mostly defensive
work. Coach Henry Frnka said
weakness in that division was one
reason why he didn’t beat Ala

Bulldogs Leave Tonight -
For North Carolina Game
The fourth Wallade Butts-Carl Snavely coaching duel,
matching Georgia’s T-formation against North Carolina’s
single wing, will be viewed by another capacity crowd in
Kenan Stadium at Chapel Hill, N, C., Saturday 2:30 p. m.
Some 48 Georgia grid players
will leave tonight on the Silver
Comet at 8:45 enroule to Chapel
Hill and the clash with. the vaun
ted Tar Heels. The team will stay
in Durham Friday 2and Friday
night, and go by bus to Chapel
Hill Saturday morning. -
A capacity throng has seen each
of the past three battles: 73,000 in
the Sugar Bowl, Jan, 1, 1047,
when Charlie Trippi led Georgia
to viciory, 2u-18. That saine yoar,
e R e alna Won the Opehe
er ‘of a six-game home-and-home
series (which ends in 1852) by a
21-14 count before 44,000. Some
44,000 watched the Tar Heels win,
14-7, here last year.
An unusual feature of this series
is that the team leading at half
time has never won. Carolina led
7-0 at the intermission in New Or
leans at the Sugar Bowl and
Georgia has held a 7-0 advantage
the last two years.
Georgia had much success in
stopping the Tar Heels’ All-Amer
ican halfback, Charley Justice, the
first two games, holding him to 37
vards in 18 rushes in the Sugar
Bowl and 22 yards in" 19 rushes the
next game. But last year the
Choo Choo broke loose for 106
yards in 21 rushes, scored three
touchdowns, one an 84-yard punt
return.
Carolina opened the season last
Saturday with a 26-6 victory over
North Carolina State. The Bull
dogs have played two games,
beating Furman, 25-0, and Chatta
nooga, 42-6.
Georgia's regular right halfback
and top runner, Floyd (Breezy)
Reid, is a doubtful participant Sat
urday. He sprained his left ankle
in scrimmage Tueésday. Junior Gus
Hlebovy, from Youngstown, Ohic
will“start in his place.
Probable starting lineups ad
»set 1n the air against Georgia
Tech.
Nobndy knows how it will be
Saturday, but in public print at
least, Tech Coach Bobby Dodd is
still terrified at what the Greenies
may do to his Yellow Jackets at
New Orleans.
“We can only hope” he said
vesterday, “Those big Greenies in
Ithe line outweigh. us something
jawful” -
1 Dodd; incidentally, is still look
{ing for a good extra point kicker.

The Mississinpi Rebels ham

| slightly for Kice. He tentatively
placed Carroll Griffith at starting

and former fuliback Zollie Toth at

Georgia Has
iThree Gunning
For A “Grand”
Georgia has three plavers bid
ding for membership in the South
eastern conference’s 1,000-yard
club, an exclusive organization
listing the names of only 20 play
ers whose total offense—passing
and rushing——has exceeded the
1,000-yard mark.
Left halfback Billy Mixon of
Tifton, Ga., based on gains against
Furman and Chattanooga, is the
leading Bulldog candidate. He's
gained 169 yards on 18 rushes. T
quarterback Ray Prosperi, Altoo
na, Pa,, has picked up 157 yards
passing but lost five yards rush
ing for a net of 152 yards. Right
half Floyd Reid, Hamilton, 0., has
rushed for 140 yards in Z 1 earries.
With nine more games it is
possible that one or more of them
will achieve the goal. The odds
are heavily against Mixon and

Rapid Pace
In Prep Play
Frank Vincent Salerno, 180~
pound Georgia freshman guard
from Chicago, captained both his
high school football and wrestling
team last season,
He played at the same schoel,
Austin high, at which Bill De Cor
revant (later Northwestern All-
America halfback) starred.
Frank, who will not be 18 until
November 30, was ali-City tackle
in high school but was switched
to guard here by Georgia fresh
man ccach Quinton Lumpkin.
He placed second in the Chicago
high school shot put last spring
with a toss of 48 feet 7 inches and
has recorded a 50 foot throw.
Reid, who do not pass. Only two
players in SEC history have rushed
for more than 1,000 yards—Geor
gia’s Frank Sinkwich, 1103 yvards
in 209 carries in 1941 and Tulane’s
Eddie Price, 1178 yards in 188
rushes in 1948.
Georgia and Ole Miss each have
four players’ listed in the 1,000
yvard club, but Georgia's Sink
wich and Johnny Rauch each
made the grade twice to give the
Bulldogs priority in this depart
ment. Sinkwich’s rushing and
passing totals of 2,187 yards in
1942 and 1,816 yards in 1941 are
the best two marks ever recorded
in the SEC. Rauch, on passing
alone qualified for membership in
1947 with 1,202 yards and in 1948
with 1,190 yards.
Georgia’s other 1.000-yard eclub
members are tailback Johnny
Cook, 1,368 yards in 1948 and left
haltback (harley Trippi, 1,366
yards in 1946,
