THE Atlanta Athletic club basket ball five plays its first scheduled game of the season Saturday night on home soil. Their opponents will be the Bessemer Athletic club team, of Bes semer, Ala. The Bessemerites have always put up a fine scrap in Atlanta. This game will give the public a chance to judge whether or not there is any truth in the rumors that a “real" team is rep resenting the club this year. The Atlanta Athletic club management has arranged for a lot of hard games for the local players this season. The schedule calls for games with Charlotte Young Men's Christian association, Mo bile Young Men's Christian association, Columbus Young Men's Christian associa tion, Athens Young Men's Christian as sociation, Birmingham Athletic club, Asheville Young Men’s Christian associa tion, Vanderbilt, Mercer. Sewanee and others. Return games will be played with Birmingham, Columbus and Mobile. The regular team will probably line-up as follows: Ed V. Carter. Jr., captain, right guard: Jim Harrison, left guard: Walter Dubarc!, center; Forbes, right for ward, and Willingham Smith, left for ward. Ijimar ("Pie”) Weaver. Esmond ("Sis") Falvey and Harry Smith are on the re serve list. M’GOORTY READY FOR GIBBONS; BETTING IS ALL AT EVEN MONEY NEW YORK, Dec. 4 -Eddie McGoorty, title holder, and Mike Gibbons, the won derful St. Paul fighter, were in fine con dition today for their ten-round bout at Madison Square Garden tonight, with the middleweight championship at stake. Both men are a few pounds under the 158-pound limit, but claim that this will have no effect on their durability. Each is confident of victory. The betting was at even money today, although there was a little more Gib •bons money in sight. TECH CLOSES FOR DATE WITH CHATTANOOGA TEAM CHATTANOOGA, TENN., Dec. 4.

Dec. 4. -The Provi dence Grays have announced tlie purchase of Pitcher Walker Beach from the Gales burg club. Catcher Wade Reynolds has been sold io Sioux City, and Infielder Jimmy Gil lespie to Chattanooga. McGugin Ranks Sewanee Second, Georgia Fourth Vanderbilt Coach Springs Sensational Ranking T T THEN J. W. Heisman's rank yy ' ns Southern football teams was published In The Georgian it aroused a storm of protest. "How in th world can Heisman lank Auburn in the same class with Georgia when Georgia beat Auburn in the Thanksgiving day game, 12 to 6',’” was asked by hundreds. With a view of leaving the mat ter of the relative ranking to some person who was entirely unpreju diced it was put up io Dan Mc- Gugin, coach of the Vanderbilt football team. It was felt that lie would have no hesitation In ranking his own team first—which he did. It was felt that he would t>e sure to give both Auburn and Georgia full credit and to consider the ques tion on a basis of the whole sea son’s showing. Naturally there was a genuine ilabbergastation when McGugin ranked Georgia fourth and Auburn only third. Here is McGugin's reply to tiie query as to how he would rank the first four teams in the S. I. A. A. The task of ranking the first four football teams Is one I have usually side-stepped. I have also almost Invariably avoided select ing an All-Southern team, feeling it might be better to save the feelings of some of my men. My own opinion is that the gen eral strength of the first four teams would place them relative ly as follows: Vanderbilt, Sewanee, Auburn, Georgia. While Vanderbilt was tied by Auburn and beat Sewanee 16 to 0, my judgment Is that Sewanee was stronger offensively, and as strong defensively. Auburn and Sewanee were fortified with punters of about equal rank, with Glllem punting as he did In the Thanks giving day game and Shea su perior. I have not seen Georgia since the Vanderbilt-Georgia game, and. therefore, can not have an accur ate opinion of the strength of Georgia Thanksgiving day. I feel that the Vanderbilt game weakened Auburn very materially for her Thanksgiving game. I feel that Auburn was weakened by the Vanderbilt-Auburn game consid erably more than Vanderbilt. None of our backs were injured In the Auburn game, and Hardage, who played very little in the Au burn game, was in pretty good ••••••••••••••••••••••••a* • HERE IS RANKING OF - TEAMS BY D.

His pic ture bears out our statement that he’s a handsome, manly little fellow. And his ownership of a Georgian Marathon Racer proves that he uses good judgment in the selection of his fun-ma king possessions. Thomas wanted a Marathon Racer. Old er members of his family would have been glad to buy one for him. but they are not for sale. For The Georgian controls the sac- ’ tory’s output for this section. And we want to give them away—not sell them. So he investigated our p lan for free distri bution of these little ears to live boys and girls, found it mighty easy, and now ex periences the joy that comes to all red blooded people in the ownership of a prized possession that has been EARNED. Hundreds of other boys and girls are duplicating his experience. But the field is not crowded. There’s room for other hundreds. Any boy or girl can easily earn a Marathon Racer.

In my opinion Georgia's offense throughout the season was consid erably stronger than the offense of Auburn, but Auburn with Major offensively and defensively during the season as a whole was slightly stronger than Georgia.
