Bozo Has Georgia-N. C. Tilt Doped
CHAPEL HILL, N.C.—l tried to leave Bozo at
home or send him to some other game, but with no re
sults. His little pomtqd head was set on seeing Geor
gia play North Carolina. So right now, on the eve of
the eve of the big game, we’ll turn this eclumn over
to the Master and his weekly foothall predicting re
lesse.
The people’s choice.
By BOZO CLODFELLER 111.
(MAN, MAN,) are we gonna have a game here to
morrow! I got & feeling thrills will be thicker than
one of those old fashion hayrides. But down on that
football field things will be anything but romantic.
Just now I'm rocking along at a .915 clip in my grid predictions.
| gotts do better if I expect to recapture my national championship
which I won last year. The pressure is tertific but being the great
competitor I am, I must and shall come through in flying colors. Yes,
that’s for sure.
THE COACHES, PLAYERS AND BOOKIES have been storming
my room ever since I arrived in North Carolina, wanting the “line”
on the Georgia-Tarheel game. I fried to tell them that my dope is run
axclusively in the Banner-Herald. But they won't listen. The poor
fools. Little do they know the surprise in store for them. Few dream
how this game is really coming out. Only I know the real dope. (If you
wish, you may drop on down & few lines.and see what I predicted—
[ don't want any heart attacks in Athens; all the doctors are up here,)
The boys in the back rooms up here (you know, the fellow with
sencils behind both ears, yellow and pink wips in both fists, and a
ticker tape device cleverly strapped on the hip) say Carolina will win
by one touchdown. BUT HERE'S THE REAL DOPE, ;
Stand back now-—this may splatter. Y
THE GAME WILL BE A TIE! Yep, that's the way I see it. 1
worked over this thing for over 48 hours without sleep or food. I used
the square root of my secret number and divided it into every thing in
existence, including the bed post, but all I could get was a tie gama,
Heaven’s to Betsy that’s the straight dope. May I lose all my Truman
ittons if I lie. v
Of course now, I ain’t always right — just most of the time. But
that's the best I can do. A tie game. THE SCORE: GEORGIA 14,
NORTH CAROLINA 14,
TULANE over Georgia Tech —— We gotta hand it to the Jackets
for beating Vanderbilt, but they can't repeat this week; Tulane has
‘he power. The Green Wave by 14 points.
TENNESSEE over Duke —— General Neyland's boys started
slow against Mississinni State last week but should find the range
this trip. The Blue Devils will be tough, but we give the nod so the
Vols by two touchdowns.
FLORIDA over Tulsa —— "The Gators only beat The Citadel by
13 points last Saturday, but we have faith in a kid named Hunsinger.
Florida by a pair.
MISSISSIPPI over Kentucky — Now here’s a hard one to call
Both seem to be strong, but the Rebels have more reserve strength
and are a better balanced team. Very close — we'll say by six points.
RICE over LSU—Those Owls are l~aded. By three or four.
BAYLOR over Miss. State —— The Baylor Bears racked up a
better than average South Carolina team last week, and State isn't
even average. Bayvlor in a walk.
WAKE FOREST over Boston College —— The Deacons almost got
by SMU last week, losing 13-7 after leading 7-6 at halftime. They
should get by B. C., but it will be a hard-fought game. :
MICHIGAN over Stanford —— The Wolverines had a hard time
in subdueing Michigan State 7-3. while Harvard was being romped
on by the Indians. However, the Midwest power will #2t by this one.
By two touchdowns. 4
SMU over Missourl —— With Doak Walker pulling his miracles
the Mustangs are canable of deing anything, Missouri gave Ohio
State & merry time last week hefore howing, 35-34. The scoring
may not be this hizh this trin. hut SMU will be on top.
HERE AND THERFE —— Villanova over Detroit, UCLA over Ore
gon, Oklahoma A. and M. over Denver, Texas over Idaho, Northwest
ern over Pittsburgh, Notre Dame over Washington, Army over Penn

Georgia Set For Carolina Tilt Tomorrow
Tarheels And Justice Rated
7-Point Favorites; Reid Out
By 808 OLIVER
Banner-Herald Sports Editor
..CHAPEL HILL, N. C,,. Sept. 30—A sell-out. crowd of
44,000 is expected to witness. the football clash here to
morrow between Georgia and North Carolina, billed as
top intersectional battle in the South this weekend. .. ..
Just before post time the odds
still favor Carolina and Choo Choo
Justice by seven points, with the
money sometimes varying a few
points one way or the other. The
home folks here are dead sure that
the Tar Heels will come through,
but at the same time those Bulldog
firc;otm are anything but pessimis-
The Bulldogs are staying to
night over in Durham, a short
ride from here, and will motor
over by bus tomorrow morning
just in time to get dressed and be
on the field for their pre-game
workout. »
Reld Missed
Coach Wally Butts' steam-roller
ground attack will be suffering
without the services of right half
back Floyd Reid. It's doubtiul it
the Hamilton, Ohio, senior will
even play, and Hm;;g he will
be slowed down derably by
the ankle injury suffered during
scrimmage in Athens on Tuesday.
Gus Hlebovy, slender 165-pounder,
will start the game 1n Reid’s posi
tion at right half,
Otherwise, the Georgians are
set and ready. The Tar Heels
have handed Butts’ outfit a
thrashing for the last two years.
and not since New Orleans and
the Sugar Bowl have the Bulldogs
knocked off Justice and Co. They
had Trippi then. Red and Black
supporters figure the ’Dogs are
due,
If the Carolina team has a weak
ness, it’s through the line, from
tackle to tackle wheve thse Tar
Heels lost the bulk of their 48
regulars. Georgia’s running game
should click up the middle and off
the tackles if they have anv suc
cess at all, but around the flanks
things will be rugged, for the home
team has two crack ends in Art
Weiner and Kenny Powell. These
two will play both the offense and
defense.
To date both clubs are unde
feated. The Bulldogs have got by
Furman, 25-0, and Chattanooga,
42-6, while the Carolina crew has
turned back their only opponent,
North Carolina State, bv a 26-6
count. A victory here tomorrow
wouid go far in making the sea
son a success for either team.
Kenan Stadium
.Kepan Stadium here in Chapel
Hill closely resembles Sanford
Stadium in that it’s a natural lay
out with the top of the stands be
ing at ground level. Last week
when Carolina defeated N. C.
State’s Wolfpack, Kenan was
packed to cavnacity. Every avail
able seat will be taken when the
Bulldogs and Tar Heels tangle at
2:30 tomorrow. The game-can be
heard over Athens’ WGAU. .
No matter who the victory goes
to, the fans who witness this game
here tomorrow will see football at
its best. It will be All-America
Justice against an evenlygpalanced
Georgia team, which has no stand
out star but just a host of good
players. Thrills will be many and
victory sweet for the fortunate
club’that comes out on tfop.

Tulane-Tech Meeting
Heads Good SEC Slate
By STERLING SLAPPY
Associated Press Sports Writer
Four of the highest ranking Southeastern Conference
teams go record raiding on each other tomorrow and re
sults can be nothing but ruin for two of them.
Tulane and Georgia Tech op
erate on each other, and Mississip
pi will try to unseat Kentucky
from its darkhorse saddle.
Meanwhile, four other South
eastern teams take on four of the
best in the Southern and South
west Conference..
The inter-conference games of
course are topped by Georgia at
North Carolina in Chapel Hill, and
Duke at Tennessee in Knoxville.
The Southeastern - Southwest
battles are Rice at L. S. U. in
Baton Rouge tomorrow night and
Baylor at Mississippi State in
Starkville tomorrow afternoon.
Alabama Vs, Vandy
Those game should supply all
the football needed for one con
ference, but in addition Alabama
goes to Nashville to meet Vander
bilt in the best of the once-beaten
meetings. This is Vandy's prime
chance to make up for losing to-
Tech last week in one of the big
gest shockers in the country.
It is also Alabama’s chance to
pacify its alumni for being the
first to lose to Tulane. Alabama
very likely won’t remain the only
Tulane victim. Others are due
to join soon.
Florida waits another week be
fore meeting major opposition and
spends tomorrow afternoon against
Tulsa in Oklahoma. Aubufjn is
idle which assures the Ioy§"
Plainsmen they won’t lose ev
Saturday this year.

CARDS LOSE
With Twin Victory
By RALPH RODEN
‘ Associated Press Sports Writer
The Brooklyn Dodgers held the upper hand in the Na
tional League’s pennant scrap today. The American
League's scramble remained a dead heat between the
{ Boston Red Sox and the New VYork Yankees.
Brooklyn, pre-season favorite to
|cop ine National’'s bunting, roar
ed into the lcad yesterday by mop
‘. %irnx up the 194 Kingpin Boston
| aves, 9-2 and 8-0, while the St.
| Louis Cardinals lost again to the
Pittsburgh Pirates, 7-2.
| The Dodgers killing in Boston
| boosted the Brooks half a game
{ahead of the Cardinals. Brooklyn
|has two games left to play with
|{the third place Phils in Philadel
pia. The Cards have inree to go
|with the last place Cubs in Chi
cago. . |
While the Dodgers ascended to
top of the National League, rain
kept the Red Sox and Yanks tied
for blue ribbon honors in the
American League.
Yanks Rained Out
New York’s game with the Phil
adelphia Athletics in the stadium
was rained out and so was the en
counter between the Red Sox and
the last place Senators in Wash
ington.
The two American League con
tenders are scheduled to play off
their washed out games today. If
rain again intervenes the games
will be cancelled, as the Yanks
and Red Sox are gcheduled {o
open a two-game series in the sta
dium Saturday.
| Brooklyn had no trouble in
!whippir.g the Braves yesterday.
; The Braves” were in the game for
cnly three innings in the opener
and they might as well have
“stood in bed” for the nightcap.
Warren Spahn, the National's
only 20 game winner, gave Preach~
er Roe, crafty Brooklyn lefthan
