Citizens of Athens Pick All-Time Georgia Team * l *** l- v®d* v®v *r®*r v®-? ♦b®4* •»•••? 4*®*F 4*®v This All-Star Eleven Would Be a Gridiron Terror By Ross Creshmore. IN choosing an all-Georgia, all star team, I am indebted to many of the older citizens of Athens who have followed the Georgia team ever since the game was played here, among whom are E, H. Dorsey, treasurer of the Uni versity of Georgia Athletic Asso ciation; Major J. E. Talmadge, Tom Elder, Henry Beusse, Hugh Gordon, S. V. Sanford, Lamar Rucker, W. H. Davis and others. KETRON Clarkesville, Ga., weight 175 pounds. At the present time assistant coach at the Uni versity of Georgia: is without ques tion the best center Georgia has ever had. In his four years playing this position he was never charged with a bad pass, something that can be said of few centers. Remark ably fast In breaking through the opposing line, he was down the field with the ends on punts. However, it is not due to Ketron’s offensive work that he Is given a place on the all-star team, but to his great de fensive playing. It is doubtful if football fans in the South have seen a more aggressive center. Ketron was chosen on the all- Southem In 1902. BLANCH—Right guard, from lowa, weight 200 pounds, was with out. doubt the greatest guard that ever represented Georgia on the gridiron. Standing well over six feet and powerfully built, with years of experience before en tering Georgia, he was a terror to opposing teams. Opening up holes for his backs -was his specialty and tn this respect he has never been equalled in this section. Blanch played on Glenn Warner’s cham pion 1896 team. After leaving Geor gia, Blanch played with the Uni versity of Minnesota and was chos en on the all-Western team. PRlCE—Guard, Lexington, Ga., weight 210 pounds, is chosen as a. running mate for Blanch. This man was also a member of Warner’s champion Georgia team. Built on , the order of Blanch, he, too. was a most aggressive lineman. Price played in the days when a guard was allowed to carry the ball and it w'as the famous "guard back” play that first brought this man into prominence. He was also a bulwark on defense and is award ed a place on the all-Georgia team on account of his general all-round ability. HAMILTON Tackle. Harris burg, Pa., weight 200, came to Georgia from Pennsylvania State college, where he had played two years on the team representing that Auburn Coach Says Men Are All in Trim With Two Minor Exceptions By M. J. Donahue. (Coach of the Auburn Team.) With the exception of Arnold and Meadows, the Auburn squad will line up today against Tech in fairly good physical condition. Meadows’ leg was hurt in the Mls.-is sippi game and again in practice, so that his condition for today is a doubt ful proposition. Arnold’s knee was twisted in Thursday’s practice and he may be out of the game. Even with these men out of the game, Auburn will be in far better condition than they were a year ago, when two-thirds of the team was out of condition and some of those playing had no business being on the field. There has been a general improve ment in line play for the Auburn men this week, as well as the interference by the backfield. Ressigae and Lamb have recovered from their attacks that made them like unto Job and are now' rounding Into good shape. A number of the men on the squad still suffering with colds that affect their endurance. Os those who played against Tech last year there are in the line-up today Pitts, center; Lamb, tackle; Robinson, end; Newell, halfback; Mjijor, quar terback, and Arnold, who played sub stitute end. but is now playing a half back. Ressigae also tried to play, but had fever and was forced to quit after one or two plays. Hart also started, but w’as forced to leave because of a bad ankle. Auburn has plenty of weight in th / > line now. but the backfield, outside of Major, is very light, as the halfbacks will hardly average 150. Arnold, who Is rather young, is a coming backfield man of the Hardage type. A little age and experience is all that h“ needs to become a first-class man. Porto Rico’s New Wonder. Prom far-away Porto Rico come re ports of a wonderful new discovery that is believed will vastly benefit the peo ple. Ramon T Marehan, of Barce loneta, writes: “Dr. King’s New Dis covery is doing splendid work here. It cured me about five times of terrible coughs and colds, also my brother of a severe cold in his chest and more than twenty others who used it on my ad vice. We hope this great medicine will yet be sold In every drug store in Porto Rico.” For throat and lung troubles it has no equal. A trial will convince you of its merit. 50c and SI.OO.

Hamilton was of the short, stocky type and was unus ually fast for a man of his weight. In giving him this place it must also be said that he was the best lineman and probably the best foot ball player Georgia ever bad. After the Georgia-North Carolina game In 1899, Captain "Pot” Graves, of the Tarheels, and present coach at West Point, said: “I have never known of but two things that could stop me—a wire fence and Hamil ton, of Georgia.” It was his ter rific charging on defense, smashing all interference aimed at bis side of the line, that gives him the honor of being the greatest of all time. KENT —Mt. Vernon, Ga., weight 205, is selected to hold down the other tackle position. Kent at tended Georgia four years and was one of the few football players of his time to graduate. On the “tackle over tackle” play Kent car ried the ball in amazingly effec tive fashion, and was a hard man to stop. His offensive work was his long suit, and at the same time he w as above the average as a de fensive player. Kent was a con sistent player and could always be depended on to rise to the occa sion in cases of emergency. RlDLEY—LaGrange, Ga., weight 180. stands pre-eminent among the ends who have played football at the University of Georgia: he has the distinction of being the only Georgia player who held the cap taincy of the team for two years. His offensive work in carrying the ball and his sensational hurdling in an open field was his greatest asset and in this respect he ex celled any performer in the South. A terrific tackler with a cool head, coupled with great speed, made him one of the most brilliant of Geor gia performers. Ridley was select ed on the All-Southern in 1902. WIGHT —Savannah. Ga.. weight 176, was another member of the champion team of 1896. While not equalling Ridley in brilliancy. WILL HAVE A WHITE CHAMPION ERE LONG By Ed. W. Smith. WHITE hrfivy weight fighters are about to come into their own. For the first time since the late and more or less lamented Jim Jeffries chucked up his title and retired so Inde cisively along about the year 1904, or four years before the Reno hor ror, the big fellows of white skin are going to do a lot of milling that is liable eventually to result in a product that may justly be labeled ‘heavyweight ehampion of the world.” The proposition to forget about the "white hope” business and pro ceed along new lines, viz: the whites for themselves and the blacks to their own color -is meet ing with such general favor that it can be got through with a whoop now that it is fairly w.-ll started. McCarey Starts It Up. All it needed was for some pro moter to come through with a defi nite proposition of matching two of the most likely of the big whites and thus at once get down to some tangible basis. This promoter proved to be Tom McCarey, of Los Angeles, and his matching of Luther McCarey, of Nebraska, and Jim Flynn, of Pu eblo, Was the needed step to start off matters. This match means the initiative toward finding out who the best white heavy of the day may be. a question that ougjtt to be definitely settled before another spring rolls around. When it is settled we will practically have something more than a "white hope.” He will be a white cham pion, and that is what is needed at the present time to get the box ing game, at least as far as big fellows are concerned, bark into its old standing with the bout-loving public. A Twenty-Round Battle. According to the articles ~f agreemnt. the men are to battle 2«» rounds in Los Angeles December 10. The winner will meet Al Palzer, the lowa giant, in a bout probably within 30 days of that <jate. Ry that time we will have some thing tangible to work on. Then we can got the English champion—he doubtless will be Bombardier Billy Wells at that time —and if he consents to a match, as he doubtless will, we will be mighty close to having a new white champion. When Joe Gaits «as a seemingly unbeatable proposition in the light weight class, we had a white tits in that division Buttling Nelson tinallv annex i 1 it aftei much fuss ing anil then he tore into Gsins and iHt AlLAs ;t\ UEUKUIAN ANU NEANtS. SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 2. 1912. he was nevertheless a wonderful end. His greatest asset was his ability to get down the field under punts and he rarely ever failed to land his man. He was a typical player of the old school and is unanimously ranked second only to the great Ridley. WOODRUFF— Columbus. Ga., weight 140. was the most spectacular as well as the brainiest field general the Red and Black ever had. As an open field runner, punter and deadly tackler, he has the edge on all Georgia quarterbacks. Had this grand little player been with Van derbilt or some other champion team his name would have gone down in history as the greatest of all Southern quarterbacks. Singu larly enough, his next closest rival for all-star honors is his brother. George, who played his last year at Georgia in 1911. By reason of his field running, the palm goes to Hany. NALLY—Dallas, Ga.. weight 178. captain of the famous ’96 team, was one of those halfbacks of the "truck horse” variety. Nally was not a sensational player, but for consistency he stands without an equal. Strong at advancing the ball, equally so in Interfering for his teammates and playing a smashing game on defense, he was indeed a most valuable player for any team to have. DICKINSON —LaGrange, weight 165. is given the other halfback po sition on account of his great line plunging and defensive work. Un usually fast, a sure tackler and a back to be relied upon under the old rules to gain the necessary dis tance on the third down. Dickinson was the backbone of the Georgia team during the years of 1900-01.-02 and was the mainstay both offen sively and defensively. LOVEJI >Y —LaGrange. Ga.. weight 1.75, another member of Warner's famous champions, is rated by all as Georgia’s greatest fullback. The old football rules gave this player his opportunity, for it was his ir resistible line bucking which gives him this place. Ho was also one of the best punters Georgia has had. He was used to back up the line on defense and was far above the average in this respect. The art of hurdling found an able ex ponent in the person of Lovejoy, who stands pre-eminent among the ranks of Southern fullbacks. In this selection of an all-time team the writer has refrained from considering any of the present members of the Georgia team. How ever, when these men have fin ished their course, I reserve the right to amend my selection. messed him us scandalously. The cases will be parallel only up to the stage of matching the beat white man with the black. That w on't be necessary. ; Luther Is Confident. McCarthy is full of smiling confi dence in himself. He talks with the greatest complacency about the sit uation, and believes that he lias a little lilt better chance than any of i them to forge to the front. To the careful observer he looks I woefully lacking in experience to be • picking out such decidedly tough customers as this chap from Pu eblo. No matter how one may fig ure Jim Flynn, (specially mi his showing with the colored cham pion at Los Angeles last July, it must be remembered that Flynn has beaten and still is beating some of the biggest and toughest and best of tiie big fellows.

Coach Cope was decidedly wroth over the articles emanating from Athens charging, indirectly, thai the Sewanee team harbored sev eral ringers. "Any intention that we are play ing ringers is in error." said Mr. Cope. “They hint that there is something suspicious in the cases of Dobbins, Moore and Sheldon. "Take Dobbins. They say be comes from Murfreesboro. Penn. As a matter of fact, his home is in Gallatin, Tenn., and he came to Sewanee from the Murfreesboro, Tenn., training school. Very sus picious circumstances that: ’.Moore comes from Martin. Tenn. He is trying to get a B.A. degree in two years and is doubtless do ing more studying than any man in college. His status is above ques tion. "As for Sheldon, he comes from Texas, it is true, but so do 10 o 50 other Sewanee boys every year. Next to Tennessee. Sewanee gets more boys from Texas than from any other state in the Union. Shel don went last year to West Texas Military academy, where Frank Julian, a former Sewanee player is coaching and naturally Frank in fluenced him to come to Sewanee. "We only have one other man on the team this year who was not on the mountain last year. He is Hammond, a sub. He comes from the Griffin. Ga., High school. “My personal opinion." conclud ed Mr. Cope. "Is that Georgia i preparing an alibi.” Today’s Big Games South. Tech v«. Auburn, at Atlanta. Vanderbilt vs. Virginia, at Nashville. Georgia vs. Sewanee, at Athens.

Nov. 2. —It i> gen erally conceded that Mana ger Wolverton made a ten strike when he secured Claude Der rick, the infielder Connie Mack dis cards I the past season, and one who will do much to solve the prob lem of the Yankee infield next sea son. The mere fact that the shrewd hade of the Athletics cut him adrift :s no i eflection on the young ster'- ability. Mack concedes Der rick looks to have a blight futut'’ in the big league and tried vainly to regain possession of him after he was tiaded to the Orioles. He is thoroughly familiar with what the player can do, having had him un der his wing two seasons.
