The game started off with the lo cals throwing the first field and foul goal, and after five minutes play it was easily seen that the locals had things their own way. Luring the first half, the Bessemerites only threw one field goal against the At lanta hoys’ 12. The score at the end of the first half was Atlanta 29. Bessemer 7. “Pie” Weaver played a remarkable defensive game as well as a brilliant offensive one, scorihg two field goal* that were sensational. Carter, his teammate, also played a fine game, a« the score shows that only three field goals were thrown by the visiting team during the encounter. For the Bessemer team Bailey led at scoring.

The losers were way off on their shooting, for on many occasions they had clean shots, but failed to put them in for the count.

It seems that it was Cousin Kate’s first visit to a motion picture show and she claimed that a big. fat actor on the “screen" deliberately winked at her (it must have been John Bun ny) and being from the country, she rebelled at such impertinence and it required one full hour of Ralph’s time to explain to her that it was all in the picture.
