Thursday morning, bright and
early, the Hartwell High football
team will board automobiles and
journey down to LaGrange to play
the High school team of that thriving
city of 17,000 inhabitants. The game
is to be played Friday afternoon and
many are eagerly awaiting its out
come. When the team arrives in La-
Grange the boys will be given a brief
workout on the LaGrange field
Thursday afternoon.
LaGrange has the team that is
bidding for the state championship.
They have a team that is exceedingly
strong, having lost only one game
this season and winning games from
such teams as Newnan and Boys’
High of Atlanta.
Last Friday afternoon they de
feated Boys’ High, in a hard-fought
game the final score reading 14-0.
Hartwell goes to LaGrange expect
ing a hard game. Dope hasJ)een up
set so many times recently tHnt Hart
well fans are hoping to have a com
plete reverse in the ways of the La-
Grange team. Mercer, on last Friday,
turned in the biggest upset of
Southern football by defeating Flori
da, the team that tied Tech and Texas
and held the Army to a 14-7 score.
Mercer defeated Florida 10-0, send
ing many rays of sunshine to Mercer
followers throughout the South, after
having heed doped to lose by at least
three touchdowns.
Not Cleaning that an upset will oc
cur Friday but nothing is impossible
in this day and time in regards to
football. The Hartwell team goes to
LaGrange with the intention of put
ting up a scrappy fight even though
they are doped to lose.
—o —
Football Season Nearing Close —
Basketball Next.
Before many days have passed and
dope has been upset many more times
the basketball squad of Hartwell High
will begin planning for the coming
jteason.
Realizing that most of last year’s
«quad will not be seen in uniform
this winter, Coach Field will begin
carry on the winding into shape of
a basketball team from green ma
terial. Coach has announced that
practice will begin about the first of
December and a good team should be
ready for the floor on its first ap
pearance the latter part of tHe month.
Four of last year’s regulars, Mar
tin, Morris, Brown and Thornton are
lost leaving Kyle Massey as the only
veteran. Kyle made one of the best
players on rhe Hartwell team last
winter and will doubtless prove to be
one of the main cogs in this year’s
machine.
The prospects at present seem
rather blue for a first class and
quintet.
But as all Hartwell students and
fans should be, I, too, am optimistic
and believe that a real championship
contender can be developed—one that
should give somebody a run for their
money at the Northeast Georgia

Another Football Seaton Over.
Well, folks, another footbail sea
son has come and gone and Hartwell
High has continued to add laurels to
her crown. The football team has.
made a good record and has, at all
times, won the favor and commenda
tion of her opponents and as a re
sult many of the leading Northeast
Georgia teams have expressed their
desire to enter Hartwell’s name
among their lists of football foes on
next year’s grid card.
With the close of another season,
many of the players have entered
their last game under the flying
colors of Hartwell High. Carey
Skelton, captain of the team this
year, will be lost. He has ably led
his team under all kind of difficul
ties and has proven that he has the
abilities of a real leader.
Kyle Massey, one of the best ends
' in the state, has entered his last game
j and by his quick thinking ability
' should prove a real find for some
college.
Roy Teasley, guard, has filled his
position with such aptness that he is
receiving the praise of all who have
l seen him in action.
Hoke Hill, tackle, will carry with
him the remembrance of many a hard
fought game in'which he has played
like a veteran, although this is his
first year in football.
Clarence Holland and Pelham
Ayers will not be seen in uniform
next fall and it is with regret that
they are given up. Both were on
the scrub team but had promise of
making the first team if they had
only a year longer.
Os the backfield men Clarence
Stephens, William Morris, Fay San
ders, Henry Richardson and Chand
ler Mann are lost, each of whom
brightened the hopes of Hartwell ad
mirers by their spectacular plays.
Planning for Next Year’s Grid Season
Mac Brown will fill the shoes left
vacant by Skelton. Copeland Car
ter will be back in his same position
at tackle. Jack Magill is capable of
holding down one of the ends while
Olin Leard will hold the other end.
left vacant by Massey. Clifford Shif
let is expected to be able to play at
his position at tackle next fall.
This leaves the guards open but
some good material is expected from
the country next year, as things look
now that we’ll have to “go out into
the hedges and highways for players.”
The backfield will have as its
aspirants: Jim Skelton, Albert John
son, Edgar Bailey, Lamar Wilcox and
Charles Rogers.
Tonight—The Big Night.
Thursday night, at 8:15 while the
Hartwell High football team is hav
ing a big time down in LaGrange, the
Hartwell folks will also be ready for
an enjoyable evening. The Mercer
Glee Club will be here for its annual

GOLDEN CROSS FUNDS
TO BUILD HOSPITALS
FOR THE SUFFERING
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 18. —Plans are
Crystalizing in Georgia and through
out the country—wherever there are
members of the Methodist church —
for the annual enrollment period of
the Golden Cross Society, a church
wide organization to foster and main
tain hospital work. The Georgia
campaign, as in many other states,
will begin immediately after Thanks
giving and continue until the middle
of December.
Joining the Golden Cross may be
likened to joining the Red Cross or
any similar organization, which has
for its object the relief of sick and
suffering humanity. The Golden
Cross, however, uses all funds de
rived from membership fees solely
in hospital charity work.
The Golden Cross Society in Geor
gia will aid Wesley Memorial Hospi
tal in Atlanta. In other states where
hospitals are being built and main
tained by the Methodist denomina
tion, Golden Cross societies will ren
der similar aid.
New Hospitals Going-Up
Dr. C. C. Jarrell, general secretary
of the General Hospital Board, of
the M. E. Church, South, has just re
turned to Atlanta from an inspection
trip of Methodist hospitals and from
attending church conferences. He said
today that construction work on hos
pitals in Texas and Alabama was
going forward at a rapid rate. Other
hospitals, one in Texas and another
in Tennessee, which are well esta
blished and have been in operation
for sometime, are accomplishing
great results, Dr. Jarrell said.
Wesley Memorial Hospital, which
the Georgia Golden Cross societies
will aid, is located on the campus of
i Emory University, in Atlanta, cost
ing $1,500,000. Many patients,. ‘ re
gardless of church connections or
creed, who are unable to pay their
own expenses are aided through the
charity work of the Golden Cross.
While the membership enrollment
of the Golden Cross is largely con
fined to the Methodist church, Sun
day schools and other organizations
in the denomination, it is not limited
to church membership or even the
Methodist denomination. Any per
son, whether a church member or not,
may enroll as a Golden Cross Society
member, the membership fees and
dues going to the hospital fund. Hun
dreds of charitably inclined people
are expected to join the Methodist
movement in the campaign of 1924.
