Bulldog Swimming
Chances Are Good
Coach Bump Gabrielsen is most optimistic about his Bull
dogs’ chances in the Southeastern Conference Swimming
meet in Atlanta March 9-11,
“Some of our rookies gained
valuable experience on our four
road meets with Auburn, Florida
State, Florida and Miami,” Bump
reports.
“Our No. 2 diver, Bob Hirsh
berg, was unable to make the
trip due to tests he had to take
in his veterinary medicine
course, but his substitute, James
Harris, came through in fine
style and I believe he will be
able to score in the SEC meel.”
Coach Cabrielsen reported sev=-
eral interesting features of the
road trip through Alabama and
Florida:
At Auburn the boys swam in a
metric pool, 18 2-3 meters long.
But news reports on the meet re
ported the results in yards and
many Bulldog followers were sur
prised to learn that Geoigia’s Bill
Fisch won the 50-yard free style
over teammate Joe Stock in the
comparatively slow time of 28.5
seconds. Actually the race was 50
meters, Instead of yards, and 28.5
seconds is good time for 50 meters.
Stock, incidentally, in losing his
first race of the season over the
50 yards distance, had a tough
break: when Fisch swam into him
on a turn, causing Stock to miss
his turn completely,
At Florida State Georgia's
breaststrokers, Harold Morris of
Athens and Bill Volk of Bruns
wick, both bettered the Univer
sity’s school record of 2:39.8 for
the 200-yard breaststroke, a
mark set by Jimmy Hudson of
Athens in 1940, Morris was
clocked in 2:39.4, Volk in 2:39.6.
Morrds, incidentally, had ex
ceptionally tough luck the next
day against Florida in Gainesville.
He thought he broke the gun on
the start and, after bhitting the
water turned around and return
ed to the starting line—only to
look back and see the race in
progress and his opponents half
way down the pool. Morris re
sumed the race, and actually over
took one Florida breaststroker but
barely missed catching his other
rival, Randall, whom Morris had
conquered recently in Athens. Bill
Volk won, Randall finished sec
ond and Morris third, and if Mor
ris had finished second, Georgia
would have won the meet, 38-37.
Instead, the Bulldogs lost, 39-36.
Georgia’s Charley Cooper,
sophomore star from Augusta,
had the toughest competition of
all the boys, meeting some of
the finest free stylers in the
south on three straight days:
Florida State’s Jardine in the
220, Florida's Prevatt in the 220
and Lou Brown in the 100, and
Miami’s Bob Caffray in the 220
and 100. Cooper beat Jardine on
the 220 in the new school rec
ord time of 2:21.6, but lost to
Prevait, the latter doing 2:18
for a new Florida school record.
Cooper so exhausted himself
swimming against Prevatt that he
was too tired to swim his best
against Brogm. the conference
champion, in the 100 and lost by
a foot with Brown being clocked
at 56.4—g00d time on 8 50-yard
pool. Gaffray conquered Cooper
on the 220 in 2:23.5 and Coot)er
returned the compliment on the
100, winning in the fine time of
$4.9 in a 25-yard pool—the Miami
Biltmore’s, incidentally.
A case of mistaken identity cost
the Bulldogs the Miami meet,
which they lost 38-37. When the
last two events came up, Georgia
needed a second in the 440-yard
free style and a first in the 400-
Jyard free style relay to win the
meet. Coach Gabrielsen figured
his sophomere star from Atlanta,
Tommy Ceusins, could beat Mi
smi's Yates and place second to
the great Caffray fn the 440, and
he was confident his free style re
lay ‘would win and thus give Geor
gia the victory. The free style re
lay won, but Cousins finished
third.
What happened to Cousins?
He thought Caffray was Yates,
And his siraiegy was to keep
up with Yates and beat him in a
streteh finish. But the real Yates
took the lead with the real Caf
fray taking it easy. Cousins thus
wound up keeping pace with
Caffray and when he tried to
beat Caffray in a stretch finish
he was not “up” to the task.
Caffray went en to overtake
Yates and Yates beat Cousins by
a foot.

SEALS BAN PEANUTS
- SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 18—
(AP)—The lowly peanut, almost
as much a part of baseball as the
ball and bat, has been banished
from the home grounds of the
San Francisco Seals. It costs too
much to clean up the shells.
Paul 1. Fagan, president and
main stockholder of the Pacific
Coast League team, announced
yesterday:
“They cost us too much money.
They sell for 10 cents per bag, we
get 212 cents from the conces
sionaires for cach bag sold. I es-
timate it costs us five cents for
giving every man, woman and
child who buys a bag the privil
ege of throwing them on our clean
floors.”
He said it costs $20,000 a year in
janitors’ labor to clean up the
shells.

BULLDOGS TRIPTECH
Cage Custom
Carried On
By Williams
Minton Williams, who made all-
GIAA guard at Lanier in Macon
the only year he played high
school basketball, is carrying on in
an unusual tradition as a member
of the 1950 University of Georgia
court squad.
Only seven seasons since Geor
gia began basketball in 1906 has
the Bulldog quintet failed to list
a Macon boy. Georgia once went
four consecutive seasons with Ma
con boys as the captains: Charley
Harrold, 1937; Jack Farren, 1938;
and Cecil Kelley, 1940-41,
The year Georgia last won a
conference tournament —the
Southern Conference champion
ship of 1932—the Bulldog lineup
listed three ex-Lanier high stars
in the starting five: Captain Ver
non (Catfish) Smith, Tommy Mo=-
ran and Leßoy Young, who cap
tained the club the next seasomn.
Two Maconites
The crack Georgia quintet of
1940, runner-up to Kentucky in the
Southeastern Conference tourney,
had two Macon boys: Captain Cecil
Kelley and Alex McCaskill, who
made the all-SEC first team.
Dr. Alfred Scott, high-scoring
center of 1918 and considered by
many as Georgia’s greatest basket
ball performer, was born in Ma
con. Ed Gurr, captain and star
center in 1923 and 1924, was a
Macon boy, too.
Minton not yet has achieved the
basketball fame of these illustrious
predecessors of his home town,
but Georgia Coach Jim Whatley
thinks a great deal of Minton’s
ability on the hardwood. A 6-1,
175-pound junior, Minton has not
been able to crash Georgia’s vet=-
eran starting five, which has
played together as a unit the past
three seasons. But he and sopho
more Jim Umbricht of Decatur
have been Georgia’s first-line sub
stitutes all season. Although a
high-scorer at Lanier high in
1947, Minton’s value to the Bull
dogs this season has been as a
floor man and defensive player.
Baseball will get Minton’s at
tention following the basketball
campaign. He was all-GIAA sec
ond baseman at Lanier in 1947.
Minton, as well as forward Son
ny Dykes of Cochran, will be play
ing before familiar fans when
Georgia meets Mercer in Macon
Saturday night.

Bob Healey Drops In Free Throw
In Last Two Seconds For Victory
BY DAN MAGILL, JR.
One of the most magnificent comebacks in the history
of University of Georgia athletics was achieved in Wood
ruff Hall last night. EL R s e
Down to Georgia Tech six
points, 59-65, with only two min
utes left in the game, the Bulldogs
miraculously rallied to tie the score
at 65-65, sending the game into
overtime. .
Down six points in the overtime
period with two minutes to go, the
battling Bulldogs electrifyingly
scored seven points to win, 73-72,
before a screaming capacity crowd
of 3,500,
This glorious rally, indeed, de
serves to rank in the class with
Georgia’s famous last - quarter
comeback to beat Alabama in foot=
ball, 21-10, in 1940.
Healey Great
It is impossible to single out a
Georgia hero. But it is doubtful
if Captain Bob Healey, playing
against the Yellow Jackets for the
twelfth and last time in his bril
liant four-year career, ever turned
in a better all-round performance.
Eric Staples, the great coach at
Perry, Ga., high school for many
years, was on hand for the game
and was greatly impressed with
Healey’s flawless form. Bullet
Bob sank the free throw that won
the game with less than two sec~
onds to go and he made 15 of his
ll‘Z‘uxmlnta in the crucial second
But the play that broke the
Jackets’ back was another basket
by Healey. Jim Whatley’s Bull
dogs trailed 71-68 when E. L.
Rainey. (a great competitor all the
game) tossed the ball to Healey
on an out-of-bounds play with less
than a minute to go. Healey did
not have a shot and whipped the
ball back to.Rainey, and Rainey
immediately whipped it back to
Healey—who was cpen this time,
just for a second. He cut loose
and swish! Two points, Georgia
trailed 71-70. Then the mighty
Joe Jordan stole the ball and
tossed it up to the goal. It missed
but Slim Schloss grabbed it and
dropped it through the hoops.
Georgia led 72-71.
Tech tied the count a second
later when Riedel scored on a free
throw. But then, when the Jackets
handled the ball on an out-of
bounds play, Mickey Sermersheim,
driving hard for the basket to
score, ran over Healey. It was a
plain case of charging. Healey
made the free throw — and you
could have heard the well-known
pin drop as he shot.
The victory gave Georgia the
Tech series, two games to one, the
first time Georgla has won the
court series from the Yellow
Jackets since 1946.
21 For Schloss
Slim Schloss was high scorer
with 21 points.
Georgia’s freshmen were upset
by South Georgia College, 52-49.
The Bullpups previously had con
quered South Georgia in Douglas,
52-47, with John Carson scoring 19
points. But Carson was not quite
up to par last night. He had
scrimmaged all afternoon with the
football team and scored only 12
points. Jack Turner, ex-Athens
high star, was high scorer with 15
points.

In Rio Grande
HARLINGEN, TEX, ‘Feb. 16—
(AP)— TlLe third annual SIO,OOO
Rio Grande Vall = open. minus—
thus far- -a controversy to vie
v'th golf for the headlines as it
has in the »ast, swung into its
first 12~hole round today,
A field of 156 players, all pro
fessionals excepl 14, appeared des
tined to do ! rifying things to par
71 on the 6095-yard course with
its powder dry fairways and fast
greens. "
Carefree Jimmie Darmaret, the
Ojai, Calif., minstreal man, and
dark tall and handsome Cary Mid
dlecoff, the ex-dentist from Mem
phis now getting his mail at Or
mond Beach, Fla.,, were picked
as the men to beat in the run for
the $2,000 first money.
b ~ Snead Missing @
Sam Snead, the West Virginia
picture-swinger who is the top
golfer of the year in money earned
and other departments, is missing.
This leaves the field wide open.
This tournan 1t caused some of
the biggest controversies of golf.
in 1948, Norman Von Nida, the
Australian, and Henry Ransom,
an American, ex "+ Ized bl_ vs af
ter an argument over rules dur
ing a match. The entire tourna
ment field was torn by bickering
over the use of winter rules. At
one stage it appeared the tour
nament would blow wup in the
PGA’s face. But the pros salvaged
it by naming George Schneiter
Czar of the works and letting him
set down all the rules.
The next year things were go
ing along smoothly until a news
paper column criticizing players
and sponsors of tournaments made
the tournament seethse. Dick Metz,
veteran professional was named
as the man who furnished the
information in the column and
Schneiter threatened suspension.
But Metz denied it. Later things
were patched up and Metz agiin
is on the tour. _
No Arrumenf
Schneiter says there's absolute
ly nothing now for anybody to
argue about, and he anticipates
that for onc> the sports writers
can report only golf.
Two players tied the course re
cord "1 rounds yesterday. One was
Tom F 't of Houston, /ho shot a
nine-under-par 62 in the pro-ama
teur where he won $162.25 for his
trouble. The other was big Skip
