*What kind of game the Georgia
team will bo. able to put up against
these old timers is not known.
At times the locals have shown
considerable promise, and' the
game against Auburn was an im
provement over the ‘Mercer game.
The Tournament however, is still
several weeks off and by the time
! these games open up the team may
be in far better shape to play a
good game than they are at pres

The University of Alabama team
will perform in Athens on Mon
day night, the game being at the
Auditorium. Alabama for tha
first time in its history has a win
ning basketball tearii. So far they
havq rocked along nicely,'winning
nine straight games. They are
coming into Georgia on a three
game trip that will, however, test

boys have reached the end of their
victorious record. Last. week’s
freshman game was won by six
points and on the night of the
Mercer game they won by one
point. These close gmaes have
added a lot to the interest of the
evening. - Fans are admitted to
both games for the price of one
ticket.

The University Basketball team j 1|
leaves for Atlanta Friday after- y
noon for the first of the two an- ^
nual games with the Atlanta f
Athletic Club. Tne game will be b
played at the- City Auditorium, the V
scene of all the club\3 games this
winter. The Athletic Club under "
Jo Bean are again threatening to
go through the season undefeated. **
They have met little opposition b
from Southern teams so far, and C
are expecting none, as they have s-
only a few more college games to £
play' before the season will end. h
The Club team is again planning tl
to go to the National Tournament a
in Kansas City, and are filling n
their supporters with great expec- b
tatiens. They have an excellent ti
char.ce this year to get up high in
the .ranking of national teams, as t
they appear Considerably stronger h
than they did last year. ^
Last week the Club .team sue- £
ccssiully disposed of the Memphis I
and Macon Y. M. C. A. Teams. The t
latter game was a rough house af- £
fair, r.nd Scott was rather badly e
injured. He went into the game u
with a bad knee, and during the g
-melee sprkined an ankle so serious- f
