Injuries Are Few
Among High School
Football Squad
By David “Wark” Jenkins. *
Of the entire football squad at
Griffin High, not a man has received
a serious injury, and few have lost
any great amount of skin.
This does not indicate the fellows
are not working.
They are showing steam in signal
running and passing. Line bucking
is the main part of the program and
the backfield is shaping into a ma¬
chine that has drive and interference
that will be hard to break down.
Bunn and Ison are now running at
quarter with Key and Shapard as
possible opponents;
Powell, Huckaby and Griffin alter¬
nate at half.
Material for the fine is abundant
and some very promising men are
holding back the scrub team in scrim¬
mage. These positions are being
tried for by Slaton, Newton and
Rogers at center; Stanford, Phillips,
Gannon, Pritchett and Davis for
guards; Taylor, Shiv vers, Worthing¬
ton and White for tackles; Jones,
Burnett and Pittman for ends.
The line this year is heavier than
before, averaging better than 165
pounds.
There will be four practices before
the opening game. Scrimmage will
be Tuesday’s program, while Wed¬
nesday the boys will have a stiff
workout, and fight practice Thursday.
The team should be in condition to
meet the Farmers from Barnesville
A. and M. Friday........
The local boys will engage in nine*
grid battles this season, six being
played in Griffin.
Smaha, 199-pound fullback, is the
main tower of strength around which
Coach Taliaferro is building his
team.
The schedules arranged So far
opens with A and M Friday. Gor¬
don has been offered a game on Oc¬
tober 3. Covington comes here on
October 10. October 17 has been
offered to Boys’ High, while on the
following Friday the boys meet La¬
nier in Macon. Ncwnan will be
played in Newnan on October 31,
followed by LaGrange on November
7 in LaGrange.
Valdosta, South Georgia champions
of last year, comes here November"
14. Valdosta’s team, is composed of
8-letter men from last season and
should have a team more like a pro¬
fessional outfit than High school.
The season will close with Marietta
in Griffin November 21.
