Whiting. rT> HI I ison b on this aft< rnoon m I’■ ,n< • n j ark. The histories ot «.'l' and >port ar' < raamivd villi tin uevount of grudg* engag- im-nts. Yon could bring it right dot n from Napoleon’s time to today an<l till the paper telling about them. But in all tie history there would be no mon bitt-r grudge than Tech beam for Georgi. and no d, *’p. i that) Georgia enter- tains tot Tech.

Tin teams meet on the same psy chological basis. It i- th. game that forms tl. topmost pinnacle of tie season. If it i- won, thy en roll win n suer. -s. It It is lost, the reason was a taihire. The ..the games don't mat .r. Tech at tempts to create th. impression that th. game with <'lemson is a big affair: at;d Georgia makes the Stine stall about tie contest V. itli Auburn. But they don’t ford any body ami least ol a.I themselves. Today's i,'aw- m THE GAME. flic others are Interesting, but every thing depends on tlii-. ♦ • • U»ll’H th. “If” and 'but'' elimi nated, as afon-said, today's gam.* narrow - dow n to ate- t of etrt ■ in Sizing the two team- up on tie basis of those three points, it ai pears that Georgia h is all the ad vantage in strength, that Tech has the skill cornered, and that it’s a toss-up in the cunning department. So the question com.-: Can 11 team with a prepondentnci of weight beat a team with a mate rial advantage in skill? There' only one answer that on. Ye If the preponderant of weight is big enough. Surely all will admit that a team of 200-potinders could beat a team of lOt'-pounders. Apparently Georgia has enough advantage in weight and -trength to win the game. .Rist how mm h the advantage in weight is can't be told. It lias been announced as anywhere from 6 pounds to 2U. Probably it Is nearer to the latter figure than the former. Th. Geo gia «<tu id is made up of big men. Th' Tech squad is made up of lit tle men. On weight and strength. Georgia * has an advantage that, if all other things wile equa . should give the Rod and P.laek an advantage Os 10 to 6b points. • • • i T is therefore up to Tech to dem- * onßtrate enough skill to even things up a bit. It is no reflection on anybody to say that the Tech team of this year is the smartest thing of Its inches that ever was seen in these parts. It isn’t alto gether the coaching, by a long ways; for this same Tech coach has had some mighty dull teams in his day. But this year Mr. Heis man has had brainy, speedy, scrap py material to work with. And ho has developed a t- am with a "kick.” mental and physical. The Tech team has shown more this year, for its ounces, than anv of its opponent: If this team av eraged 185 to 190 pounds, it would win the Southern championship, or come mighty close to it. * • * Hi AV much will Tech's clever nes.. serve to offset Georgia's strength? Certainly nobody sup poses that Tech will b. beaten any fit to t>o points You can't get a bet at evens on tin continent that Georgia will win by points. The few who hav< risked their money on the chance tout tin Red and Black will win by -0 points have kissed their coin C",, -by e. The irev'tiling opinion is that Georgia will win by a i-nttpli of torn hdowns. That scents fair enough, too. There also seems a good hunch Tech w ill score. ! tight to he a game of tnod -1 Te< -a marvelous offense for its t.eight. And it it might luck through with a coupb of forward passes, it would b> sure to tally. It may do it without the pass. Georgia. if It were contented with straight line plunging, could teat up and down the field for a couple of touchdowns sure, just by the use of supi rior weight. But in addition to lim plunging ability Georgia has the most brilliant half back In the STONE MOUNTAIN AND GORDON IN BIG BATTLE Second «>nlx in importance to the big ► this: aftoino -n between Tech an<l <;»•<. ua> tli* contest this morning at F >n< • 1) L» <»n park, whir' began F ■evtitiM in their annua! atrUfgle.

Heisman for another five-year term as instructor of every branch of sports. Mr. Heisman had received offers from ail over the country, but Tech held an option on his s uy iies, and today they exercised it. As a result, there is much joy in the vicinity of Tech flats today. t\.r Heisman has earned himself a warm place in the heart of every Tech man. Is Oldest Coach in South. Mr. Heisman is the oldest ' ollvge coach in the South In point of serv ice, ami also stands at the top in det . loping athletic teams. He grad uate.' from the University of Fenti sylvania, where he played an eml on the football team, also making tile nine. Although not making an All-American player while in col lege, on account of his lightness, he was one of the headiest players in the East, and soon after gradu ation adopted coaching as a pro fession. \t Oberlin college Mr. Heism .: s teams attracted attention on a -of their showing against t .e much stronger schools of the East. In bis litter years at. that college defeated Ohio State, at that time on.- of the most feared elevt ns in the country. Realizing the ability of Heisman.

This was in 1904, yvhen a contract was -igr.ed with him for three years, with an option at the end of this period. In these three years Mr. Heisman turned out elevens that snowed the Jackets' rivals under and gave T> h a standing in Southern athletics. In these three years Tech's grots th was remarkable, and it was due largely to <'oach Heisman’s ability in putting an eleven on Southern gridirons that advertised Georgia Tech as an institution of the high est rank.
