Georgia football two have buckled down In the moat deadly earnest to the tack of get ting ready for Vanderbilt and the big game In Atlanta Saturday. The game with Citadel Saturday, though a walk-over for the Geor gia team, revealed several defects that must be remedied before the Vanderbilt game The most Important nf three la a lack of enep and dash -that la so essential to every winning team 'Georgia was slow In getting plays under way. and the showing of the team, while a great improvement ewer that of the previous Saturday, wee not sufficient to cause any great amount of rejoicing among the supporters and etudents Georgia's defense has bean and still 1a the main trouble, and unless there la great Improvement shown In this department by Saturday there will he nothing to the con tent but Vanderbilt Cnnningham will most likely get busy this week and bolster up his defense with some new formations Local supporters realize that to etop the onslaughts of the Commo dore back field requires some won derful defensive tactics, as the prowess of Hardage and Qpllina Is by no means underestimated. Hardage, naturally, is most fear ed of ajl Georgia Needs Punter. Another thing that Is bothering the coaches is the absence of a good, reliable punter who can he depended upon to boot the ball out of danger. None of the varsity men haa shown anything noticeable In the kicking line thus far. although Cunningham has had several men working at It since the beginning of the season. The one redeeming feature of the game Saturday was the splendid tackling shown by the secondary defente Up to the present time the men have demonstrated little abil ity to down the runner whan once by the line of scrimmage, and their efforts along this particular line have been exceedingly feeble. Local supporters are looking for ward with great interest to the back field duel between McWhorter, Georgia's best bet, and Hardage, the Commodore captain. “Glass of Jelly Won Game for Me,” Is Marquard’s Wild Claim I>\ Rube Marquard.

Oct. 15.—Boston's baseball madness again asserted itself today in the frenzied cheering from the ear ly arrivals over the advent of the Red Sox for practice for the sev enth game of the world’s series. The sun dropped behind heavy black clouds shortly after noon, and a strong wind came up, but possibility of rain had no effect on the fanatics, who pushed and jos tled their way into the grounds as soon as the gates were opened. At 1 o’clock the bleachers were nearly filled and about one-third pf the reserved seats were filled, while thousands of fans stood in line out side the gates. The grounds were in excellent condition, but it seen in prac tice that the strong wind bothered the outfielders in their judgment of fly balls. The Giants came onto the field at 12:50, and plunged into practice work like colts, making seemingly impossible catches and throws, and apparently full of confidence of vic tory today. Another army of Giant rooters came to Boston and plunged heav ily on their favorites. The bet ting quotations varied slightly, but the average odds on the game stood at 5 to 4 on the Red Sox for today, and 2 to 1 on the Bostonians for tomorrow. Can't Figure O'Brien’s "Blow.” The Boston fans were consider ably shocked at the terrible lashing handed “Buck” O’Brien yesterday and they are still wondering what the Giants did to wreak such havoc In such a short period of time. The turning point In that game was when O’Brien made a palpable balk to first base and allowed Larry Doyle to walk home with a run. Marquard pitched Engle just ex actly the kind of a ball that he likes to hit. McGraw and the pitchers who had been watching Engle told Marquara to keep the ball low on him and that he could never make a. hit. Instead of fol lowing these instructions, the Rube pitched one waist high on the in side corner of the plate. On those balls Engle made so many long hits that he earned the sobriquet of “Hack” and when hf saw Mar quard gave him his old favorite he came near breaking down the fence. I look for the victory of the Sox today. If Wood is anywhere near right 1 am sure he will win the fifty-bone bet T have wage'ed. It is almost Inconceivable that a pitcher Who has been pitching baseball for a number of years could make such a mistake as to start a throw to first base and then stop dead in his tracks. It showed one thing to McGraw, how ever, and he lost no time in strik ing while the iron was hot. Imme diately after O’Brien made the balk there was great activity among the Giants. McGraw and Coach Robi son were running here and there and the players were tossing up bats and getting ready for a slaughter. “Don’t fool around with him now,” said McGraw. "Hit at any thing that comes up." McGraw had seen In an instant that the Red Sox were rattled and that O’Brien was more upset than any of them. Their calm, hard working spirit of previous days had gone and in its stead was a nervous anxiety over winning the game that was to settle the world’s championship. By hitting at the first ball or at :wty one that came near the plate the Giants got to O'Brien before he could settle down after that balk Stahl Makes Poor Move. Bang! Bang! Bang! The hits be began popping around the field and when the smoke had blown the Giants had five runs and t ie game. Right then and there Jake Sum (lid a most foolish thing. He took O’Brien out of a game that was hopelessly lost and sub stituted Ray Collins, a pitcher on whom he was depending for an im portant fight. Collins pitched n masterful form, but it was like shooting at the stars. The only result of this move wa. the ruining of two pitchers on a hopeless defe’at and putting him.se f in an awful position if anvthinr should happen to Wood, the one great star, today. Rube Marquard caught the .pirit of victory from his team matesand pitched a beautiful game. He v. is a little unsteady in the third and fourth innings, but after that he straightened out and the Sox were helpless. Rube declares that during o second inning he felt that a ii £d . ment in his arm was working nut of place and that it affected his control. Between the fourth and fifth innings he went to the bench where Ed Mackall, the train ■' bound the pitching wing with ad hesive tape so as to hold the liga ment in place. After that Rub< s control was perfect and he per formed the rather remarkable feat of making nineteen batters pop easy flies. Engle Proved Surprise, The one man who fooled Mar quard and who Is responsible for the only runs made by the Sox « Clyde Engle, the utility infielder, who batted in place of O’Brien in the second. There were two on bases when Engle came to the bat and he sent them both home with a two-bagger that bumped into ihe left-field fence. CUBS WIN THIRD IN ROW AND HAVE SOX ON RUN CHICAGO, Oct. 15,-The Chicago x». tlonals burled the White Sox under an 8 to 1 score yesterday, the third straight game of the series to decide ih« baseball championship of Chicago vic tory for the Cubs today win end the ae ries. Cico<te attempted to stop the Cubs’ winning streak, but was relieved by Lange after five runs had been scored off him In two innings. Lange held his oppo nents In check ufitil the ninth, when Saier pounded out his second triple, scoring two more runs. The American leaguers' lone tally was made in the sixth, when Bodie drove the ball deep into center field for three bases and scored on Johnson s single Clieney pitched ip rare form. He held the Americans to eight hits and kept them well scattered. PROM OTER SO F 0 LYM PIC GAMES LOST TIDY SUM STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN.
