’ In a New Round, Mr. Butts
Should Pick Up All Marbles
In light of all the new evidence, the POLITICAL RIO- |
GING in the "Political" College Football Fix—Deliberate
Libeling Wallace Butts and Bear Bryant—an appeal, such
as the Curtis Publishing Company lawyers have accomplished,
should be worth, not the $3,000.60,000 Mr. Butts was awarded
in Federal District Court in Atlanta, but the full $10,000,000
lie asked for the scurrilous, unfounded, damaging and
charaeter-assasinating piece of yellow slander concotcd by
Furman Bisher of the Atlanta Journal, and more or less
j conceived by politicians. K
If the Saturday Evening Post can get away with DE
LIBERATE. Libel, which we don’t think The Post CAN, no
individual in America, with any reputation whatsoever,
would be safe from an unfounded, unwarranted or ruinous
personal attack Feet of Clay • Bryan > editor of The Post
for his unconscionable part in the “editor’s note” preceding
the Post’s cockeyed Deliberate Libel story, may deserve a ’
horsewhipping. We think if he wrote something about us I
like that, he sure would have to put up his hands, or else. I
How about that, Bulldogs? We are seeking Justice!
And if Wallace Butts is tried on his “private life” which ’
is not in contention in this case, then American jurisprud
ence is OVER THE HILL! That’s where Editor Bryan ought
to be! Butts is drawing in interest more than SSOO a day,
since the Post lias not deposited any money with the court'
Vic Stewman. who was the out
standing lineman for the eve
ning. Herald Westmoreland did
a great job, too. and there were
others all of the linemen, in
fact doing their darndest to
unbuckle the Bulldogs.
The Free Press could only
select, however, the two most
valuable Cardinals, line and
backfield, and it had to be
Benefield and Stewman. And
trophies were accordingly pre
sented to them Saturday in
Jonesboro, courtesy of Buddy's
Toy and Sporting Goods Store,
Forest Park.
A tributt' to the fine condi
tioned squad was reflected in
the limited and sparing use of
substitutes. And it also was re
flected in the fact that the
Bulldogs didn't gain as much as
90 yards rushing all night, and
NOTHING PASSING. The Cardi
nals were truly on the ball!
Everything backfired for Rock
dale. The announcer said at the
beginning: “The visitors’ side of
the scoreboard is not in opera
tion, and we will keep you in
formed.” A wisecracker in the
Press Box remarked: “You have
just made the understatement of
! the year, sir; you don’t really
understand what you just told
the crowd!” He prompted the
announcer on the first TD on
the opening kick off.
Then, the Bulldog band started
playing: “This is our lucky day”,
and. of course, it WAS for the
band, because they didn’t have
to play against the Cardinals!
See YOU Friday night in
Jonesboro! Don’t sit too close to
the sidelines if you have any
thing on that resembles the
colors of Forest Park High
1 School. Those Cardinals aren’t
! color blind!

About 20 yards from goal Millard

Near the end of the third

and virtually the same thing
happened, an untrue snap and ,
a fumble, and Clayton pounced
upon the free oval at the FP 28.
Fullback Brannen led the
