Paul Dickey, who played star end on the University of Michigan eleven in ’07 and '08. and who led in all i l ack events and field exercises while at college, is now in vaudeville and will appear at the Forsyth as the star feature, with his own company the week of May 12. Paul Dickey was a wonder In his time. He was selected by every ex pert who picked an All Western or All American eleven. He led the ends, and even at that had some of 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 The Home Rack." It deals with col lege life, and football figures mom prominently. It Is a sketch that th■* sport-loving t heatergoers will dou bly appreciate. During his visit in Atlanta, Dickey will be entertained by the Michigan alumni who live here, and his "Frat" mates are also preparing to see that he does riot forget his week In At lanta. k The officials, have announced that the track meet at 1 risi PH .x will start it :: p m T 1 » •!»’>■ •>' lute 1" Mari such an affair as the meet will probably run about four hours.

Th< Tech 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 game Is called, which will he at 4 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 friendless even tu the very strong 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 on their own field they hAve demon- ] strated again and again this season, and for my part 1 have no doubt they will again to-day. 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 to Tech has everything to w in in these games, and litth enough to lose aside from one of those "it might have been" feelings after the game. To lose to such a team as Georgia it wiR he no more nor 1< s than every Lain that has visited Athens this year has done, while to win would i»e t<< be raised to a pinnacle of joy and glory as great as Georgia her self enjoys. As for the Tech team, all 1 can say is that it is in superb shai^e. Then* havt been better team* at j Tech, hut wrusr T«nv than this have J defeated Georgia and in Athene to » I The boys art playing hyUer ba just ’now thug thvj have at any previous 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. BETTS GOES TO REDS. CINCINNATI. May 9.—Fred Betts, a Cincinnati ball player, who pitched for the Cardinals several years ago. to-day signed a contract to play with* the- Reds and left to join the team.
