Clemson Here Tonight
Georgia’s young basketball team has two games here
this week at Woodruff Hall, the first one tonight against
91emspn and the second against powerful Auburn Satur-
aay nignt.
Both games start at 8 o'clock.
A small section will be reserved
for town folks for these games.
The Bulldogs will be seeking
revenge against Clemson, having
lost to the Tigers Saturday night
in their opener at Clemson, 57-47.
The Bulldogs also dropped their
only other start, 66-61, to Mercer
at Macon Monday night.

Great Season Seen For Potent Athens
High Trojanettes Basketball Wizards
BY MERRITT POUND, JR.
Banner-Herald Sports Editor
Coach Marian Norris, Athens High Trojanette basket
ball mentor, thinks that she has one of the best sextets in
the stat,e this year and has a reason for thinking just that.
And it's not all optimism.
For the Athens lassies will field
a team that is practically the same
that took the floor last season
when the Trojanettes won the
Region 2-A basketball title.
Experienced Players
Most of the first string contin
gent have seen action for four
years at the Prince Avenue insti
tution and practically all are ex
perienced in the art of court bat
tle.
Back at forward slots will be
Jean Fulcher, the top scorer in
prep girls’ basketball last year;
Marian Hopkins, a fast-breaking
and high scoring performer; Sibyle
Fanning, one of the most improv
ed members of the squad; Joan
Alewine, a battling regular from
last year; Betty Ann Conger, a
newcomer and long shot artist;
and Nan Richardson, another re
turnee who has shown vast im
provement in the practice drills.
At guards will be the returning
first line group from last year’s
regional championship teany, a trio
of the best defensive aces in the
state. Janey Mae Cooley, Pat Mes
ser and Annelle Williams are ‘the
fearsome three that will attempt
to stop the horde of high-scoring
and heralded forwards that will
{ace the Athenians this cage sea
son.
Added reserve strength will
come in from diminutive but de
termined Ann Hailey and Sue
Winfrey, who will be heavily
counted on to bolster the Trojan
| ette power. Newcomer Vivian
lSmith will also come in for a
share of duty throughout the sea
son.
Ability and Depth
Coach Norris is depending upon
the ability of her able performers,
Icoupled with their long-time ex
perience and outstanding reserve
strength to add another distin
guished record to the already fine
list of court honors that have been
collected by the Trojanettes.
The Trojanettes and the Tro
jans open their cage seasons Sat
urday night in the Athens High
gymnasium against the Monroe
Purple Hurricanes.

BY JOE REICHLER
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Dec. s.—(AP)—Fully aware they
must revamp their porous infield if they are to figure in
flag contention, the Boston Braves are resigned to taking
the wraps off southpaw Warren Spahn to plug their weak
shortstop position.
‘This came to light today when
the Associated Press learned that
the Braves were prepared to trade
Spahn, one of the best pitchers in
baseball, to the Philadelphia Phil
lies for shortstop Granny Hamner
and righthander Emrory (Bubba)
Church. ¢’
Four-Time 20 Winner
Trading the 31-year-old Spahn,
a four-time 20 game-plus winner,
is one of the toughest decisions
the Braves ever had been forced
to make. General Manager John
Quinn and field leader Tommy
Holmes, however, have become
convinced that is the only move
they can make to strengthen the
club where it is weakKkest. The
IBraves ranked sixth in double
plays last season.
Spahn won 22 and lost 14 last
season. Church, five years younger
than Spahn, had a 14-11 record in
i his first full campaign. Promoted
lto a regular berth in June of 1950,
{the Birmingham righthander
wound up with an 8-6 record.
Hammer, regarded as one of the
best shortstops in the National
League, skidded a bit following a
spectacular 1950 season, batting
.255 in 150 games. A brilliant glove
man, Hamner is only 24.
The only hitch in the deal is
that the Phils are demanding a
replacemetn at shortstop and want
the veteran Sibby Sisti, who can
fill in at any infield position.
Sisti batted .279 in 114 games.
The Braves also have been ne
gotiating with the Chicago Cubs
for third baseman Ransom Jack
son, one of the better young in
fielders in the circuit. The Cubs
have asked for first baseman Earl
Torgeson in return. Jackson, 25, is
a long ball hitter and an excellent
fielder. He hit only .273 in 145
games,” but walloped 14 home
runs, stole 14 bases and batted in
76 runs. Torgeson hit 20 homers
and knocked in 91 teammates in a

Full Rosters
MONTGOMERY, Ala., Dec. §.—
(AP) — Only two vacancies are
left on the 48-man Blue-Gray
gridiron roster, The Yankees yes
terday plugged up two holes in
the line and took on a couple more
backs to bolster their offense.
This brought the Blue squad to
22 players, just shy of the full
complement of 24. Southern
coaches completed their roster
some time ago.
One of the newest additions to
the Northern list is John Kastan
of Boston University, the 185~

as New England’'s outstanding
gridder,
Joining Kastan in the backfield
was Mitchell Tullai, representing

Up front, the Yanks signed on
another headache for their Dixie
opponents—All-Big Ten defensive

ATLANTA, Dec. s.—(AP)—The waning football ;Pot
light turned today on five players—from Tennessee, Ken
tucky, Georgia and Georgia Tech—and pointed them out
as the best of their business in Dixie. (1o ;
Jimmy Hahn of Tennessee won
the best blocker title in the South
eastern Conference in a poll of
Sports Writers, Sportscasters,‘
Coaches and Scouts. Babe Parilli
of Kentucky, already named on the
All-Southeastern team and ?ickecfl
yesterday as the conferences’ most
valuable player, was named as the
best passer in the Southestern.
Stumpy Leon Hardeman of
Georgia Tech and Zeke Bratkowski
of Georgia ran neck and neck in
the race for the top sophomore
title, and big Larry Morris of Geor
gia Tech won the top Freshman
title. |
Best Blocker |
Fifteen players were named in
the best blocker race, won easily
by Hahn with 30 vote units. Ken
tucky’s first string All-SEC of
fensive guard, Gene Donaldson,
‘was second and Tennessee’s All
‘ star offensive guard, John Michels,
was third.
Hahn, a quarterback, is an 180~
{),ound senior from Newport News,
a.
The largest margin built in any
race was Parilli lead over the
passers of the Southeastern. The
Kentucky Babe, like Hahn a sen
ior, scored with 76 voting units.
Vanderbilt's Bill Wade was secend
and Bratkowski was third. Ala
bama’s Clell Hodson was the only
other passer getting a vote.
With freshmen playing varsity
football for the first time since
World War 11, Southeastern So
phomores lost much of their novel

and Freshmen played more and
better football than anticipated.
Of all the Sophs, Coaches and
