Paul Dickey, who played star end

at college, is now in vaudeville and
will appear at the Forsyth as the star

Paul Dickey was a wonder In his

the greatest stars of the other team.-,
to contend with. His work on the
track was wonderful and some of his
records still stand.
His sketch in vaudeville Is called

During his visit in Atlanta, Dickey

AX team arrived here after a rath
er tiresome ride of several
hours duration. This morning I am
letting them, walk about town a lit-
tlc^to get their land legs «‘tgain, but
immediately after lunch they will be
sent to their rooms for a nap, so as to
make sure they will be feeling well
and perfectly n sLtl by the time the

o'clock
Many, many times have I been to
Athens with both football and base
ball teams, hut never have 1 seen
the old town so stiried up over any
thing as it seems to he to-day over
these two games of ball with Tech.
The Red and Black team has had a
most fortunate sen -On from start to
date, and it is but natural that all
their friends should not only be
wrought up to fever heat with en
thusiasm over their tine showing - , but
also that they should feel the keenest
interest over the outcome of the
four games to he played with the
Yellow Jackets. The loss of a
couple of games t< the Atlantans
would leave, they fear, a rather black
mark on their bright and shining sear 1
son’s record, while the winning of
the series would mean riot atone that
this splendid record had been main
tained to the last, bu; the victory
would he sweeter than any other
achieved by their team all year simp
ly because it came over their dearest
rivals.
Town Filled With Visitors.
It looks like most every town, city
and hamlet in the State of Georgia
has sent at least one representative
up here to see these two games.
Never have 1 seen so many out-of-
town visitors here befort, and never
have 1 seen so much of colors. Nai
rn illy, the Red and Black Wnges pre
vail heavily, hut here and there we
spot a bit of Gold and White, which*
tells us that we are not entirely

hold of t lif enemy
Yell.'’’ Yes, we have heard them
galore ever since we landed, and the
Georgia band as well. By the way.
this band Is no slouch: it plays real
stuff, and plays it well—especially a
refrain entitled "Glory, Glory to old
Georgia,** of which It seems strange
ly fond,-—about a* much so as one
other'band I know of when It comes
to a composition which narrates the
autobiography of a certain "Ram
bling Wreck.”
Yes. all is excitement here. and
nerves are keyed lip to the highest
tension. It appears that Hanford
Field has never before been called
upon to house the crowds that will
storm It this afternoon and to-mor
row. And one week from to-day will
witness a repetition of these scenes
at Grant Park in Atlanta, 1 haven’t
a doubt, regardless of how the games
come out over here.
Georgia Men Confident.
Of the Georgia team’s condition 1
know nothing. Their friends and
supporters appear confident in the
extreme; front which it must he in-
I ferred that the team is in apple-pie
order Th.it th y can play great hall

1 am expecting to sec a great col
lege baseball team in the defenders
of the Red and Black, and one that
will be well worth winning from, yet
not too great a catastrophe to lose

Tech has everything to w in in these
games, and litth enough to lose aside

Heisman on Job
For Hearst Papers
J. W. Heisman, the famous Tech
coach will cover the Tech-Geor-
oia games in Athens for The Geor
gian and Hearst’s Sunday Ameri
can. He will describe each game
completely and his comments will
be the very best obtainable. He
will follow each and every play
closely and his expert opinion on
them will be of great interest. Mr.
Heisman writes a breezy story, yet
he never gets away from facts. He
will have another interesting story
in to-morrow’s Georgian, and the
story of Saturday’s game in The
Sunday American should be a
classic.
time this season, arid if they happen
to hit their top .stride this afternoon
they will make the sledding hard for
even so good an aggregation as
Georgia", has Some of the games
Tyi-h has played this year would have
pushed most any college team in the
country—notably the Glemson and
Sown nee games, and those won from
Mercer and Auburn.
Heisman Has Hope.
It is trtte Georgia has the dope
all In her favor, and also ha.s the
advantage of playing the first two
games on her home grounds, which
Is always rated a distinct advantage.
However. I recall that Tech teams
of the past have had a way of play
ing the very best ball they knew how
to play when they went right over
on the Georgia campus to perform;
and I know of no reason why these
Tech boys shouldn’t do that same
thing over again.
Yes, ‘t needs to be admitted that
in Doric> and Morris Georgia has two
■wonderfully clever pitchers, and the
biggest question, in my opinion, is
w hether tiie Tech batters can do any
thing with these fikngers. If they
do no more to them than other
Southern teams have done. Georgia
will have things all her own way.
The other "facer” that Tech has
to look in the eye is the extent of the
damage that the Georgia "cover-rip
pers" will do to Tech’s-twirlers. That
is a hard one. for it must be granted
that Georgia has mauled many and
many a good pitcher all over the
lot this spring, pitchers who were,
in all probability, quite as good as
the best that Tech can put forward.
No doubt Georgia will hit "some,"
and maybe some more. Still, I am
not without hopes; they haven’t done
it yet, anyway..
They will he great games. I am
satisfied, no matter if Georgia docs
win And there will be great
crowds, and terrific excitement and
noise, and all that goes with the
biggest matches of the year.
Colleges on Good Terms.
1 just want to add that I am very,
verv thankful that the two colleges
are at last on the very best of terms
and that there is absolutely no chance
for a flare out of flame or any other
kind of break-out such as used to
characterize encounters between the
rival teams. There will be good or
der and tip-top sportsmanship all
around, I know; and that is the best
of any college game.
NO CAUSE FOR PROTEST.
NEW YORK, May 9.-—The New
York Nationals had no undue advan
tage over the Philadelphia club in
the games played at the Polo grounds
late in April by reason of the fact
that there was a hole scooped out
of the diamond back of the pitchers’
box. This is the finding of President
Thomas J Lynch of the National
league, on the protest of the Phil
adelphia. club. He orders that the
result of the games shall stand as
played.
