Tale of Woe From Jacket Camp
Proves Team Will Be Ready for
Combat of Its Life Saturday.
By Fuzzy Woodruff.
E can now with absolute con
fidence awailt the gloom story
from Georgia. Tech has al
";"/ produced hers, The gloom
, gy is Just as much an Integra) part
of a big football match as the toss
ing up for the kick-off, the arrival of
alumn! coaches, the stories of huge
wagers by Hellenlc bootblacks, and
the description of the costumes of the
sponsors in the soclety pages a day
or so before anyone save the modiste
or whatever they call 'em, has viewed
the raiment.
Georgila's hard luck narrative alone
keeps the two athletic leglons from
beginning biung operations. It can
be expected in the course of the next
24 hours.
The Jackets’ first complaint, of
course, was the injury to Captain
Morrison. And the word from the
¥Flats is that Morrison will positively
: not get in the conflict,
- . -
CHIP ROBERTS, who is helping in
the coaching this week at Grant
¥ield, gave me an earful last night.
“There is no chance in the world of
Morrison's getting in the actual
fray,” chirped Chip. “It may be that
he will be sent in for a second or sO
to give a signal or he may go in for
one play to have the record of hav
ing engaged in the contest. But that
is positively the length of his chances
of playing. He Is far from being
ready for a big football game.”
And Wednesday the second how!l
came from the Jacket hive. Big
Lang, the 192-pound right guard, ls!
out of commission. Lang went to bed
with an attack of malarial fever:
Wednesday and the doctors say that
there is absolutely no chance of his
getting in shape in time for Satur
day’'s classic combat. This leaves
Coach Helsman a trifle shy on 'ine
material. Duncan, one of his tackles,
is suffering from a bad hip. Bénl,
another tackle, is going around on a
flat wheel.
- . -
HOWEVER. there isn't a breath of
pessimism in the Tacket camb.
The Tech players are sure they will
win. The Tech students are doubly
sure that the Yellow Jackets will tri
umph, and you couldn’t convince the
alumni otherwise should you argue
with the logic of Socrates backed up |
with the heft of Jess Willard. ‘
What betting on the game there is
in Atlanta is heavily in Tech’s favor.‘
From an even proposition, the figure
has advanced until now the Jackets
are quoted in sportive places as g
to 1 favorites, with few takers. This
condition, it is expected, will be re
lieved when the Athens contingeat
with athletes, student body, band and
enthusiasm reaches Atlanta.
- - -
THERE are, however, a quartette
of men who have not already
considered the game won. In fact,
though they are not wearing creps,
+ they are working like the Jackets are,
but a forlorn hope In Saturday's af
fair. These men are Coach Helsman
and his staff, Assistant Coach Alex~-
ander, “Chip” Roberts, of the alumni,
and Mr. Brooks, former George Wash- |
ington Unlversity star, who is devot
ing his time to coaching the Tech
line players.
The Jackets are being worked at
top speed and in secret during thair
every available moment. And the
coaches are using thelr every effort
to have the men on edge Saturday
and not a moment before.
- - *
EVERY indication is that Strupper,
the brilllant. littie halfback.
probably the greatest backfleld star
the season has produced, will be used
as he has been used all season, only
4n the last part of the game.
The reason is two-fold. Strupper’'s
, weight and inches are such that his
fresence weakens the team defensive
y in the earlier stages. However,
when the other team {s spent and
¢ weak, his speed is of double value. |
He will probably be used in thel
two last periods. Then watch some
speed.

Riverside vs. Gordon
On Saturday Morning
The Gordon—Riverside fracas, which
will be staged on Grant Field Saturday
morning as a curtain-raiser to the
Tech-Georgia classic in the afternoon,
will be a corking good scrap if the ad
vance dope on the two teams runs any
where near true to form.
Riverside, since their defeat at the
hands of the Georgia Military College In
Athens on October 23, has improved
greatly. Riverside trimmed the strong
. .V. D. eleven of local fame last Sat
urday, 33-0. At the start of the geason
they defeated Boys "High, 20-0, and 8.
Y. D. defeated Boys’' High by a margin
of one touchdown.

“Let us fight!” the magnate hollers,

Johnny Kilbane is under indefinite
suspension in Milwaukee because he
failed to appear before the Wisconsin
Boxing Commisgion to answer charges
of stalling in his recent bout with

Georgia and Tech End Scrimmage
Johnson May Take Morrison’s Place
Mathias Will Start at Halfback if
‘
‘Froggy” Is Unable to
Play.
.
By J. W. Heisman.
Coach of Tech Eleven.
| EORGIA and Tech have finished
all the scrimmage work they
| will take in preparation for their
great battle to-morrow afternoon.
| Reports have it that these practice’
serimmages were conducted with such
fierceness in both camps that several
players were put “hors du combat”
and had to quit the fleld for the hos
}plul.
At Tech there still prevalls the
greatest uncertainty as to whether
Captain Morrison will be able to get
into the mill or not. His injury has
made rather rapid progress toward
recovery, as the X-ray photo showed
that no bones had been broken when
he made that first flerce tackle in the
|Alabuma game, but the bruised place
is still sore and tender, and it likely
will be deemed best by the coaches to
keep him out of the fray until the Au
‘burn game rolls around.
. - .
SO far as punting and passing are
concerned, Morrison's loss will not
be too greatly felt, as Strupper and
Preas punt quite as well as he, and
Strupper, Hill, Fielder and Johnston
are all good forward passers. He will
doubtless be missed somewhat as a
line-smasher, for no quarter for years
in the South has been able to show
ability in this line to compare with
that of the stocky Tech leader, while
in defensive play he is, with ease, the |
best quarter of the year. \
. . - \
BUT it s mainly as a fleld general
that his absence will be felt in the‘
Tech line-up. Here he excels greatly,
and, though other men are being
groomed and labored with for the!
work, there is no hope that anyone
will be found at this late date who
can run the team as could “Froggy.”
However, the team showed its ability
last Saturday to score two touchdowns
on the strong Alabamans, even after
Morrison went out, and only off-side
play prevented at least one more. Al
the present time Johnston is working |
hard at the keystone position, and
the rapid progress he is making with
the duties of this difficult position is |
most pleasing to the coaches. |
. . .
'F Johnston does have to go to quar
ter, it is likely Mathias, who show
ed so well in the first quarter last
Saturday, will go to Johnston's va
cant halfback berth. ;
.. - ‘
DUN('?AN, who was injured In last
Saturday’s melee, is recovering
but slowly, and at this time it does
not look possible for him to get into
the game. Possibly, however, both
Mauck and Glover will be able to go
a short time, which would help con
siderably. Barnwell has, in the last
couple of days, shown the first flash
of form similar to what he, displayed
all of last season as a member of the
scrub team; and if he can keep up his
good work he would come in decidedly
handy. Lebey, scrub center, is an
other lad who has been steadily gain
ing in weight, and whose brilliant and
nervy play, both on offense ana de

‘INDXPATI()NS are for the biggest
1 crowd that ever attended a football
game In this city, and it is fortunate
that the huge new stands at Grant
Field have been completed, as they
will be taxed to their utmost capacity
to hold the people. The total seating
accommodations will hold 10,000 peo
ple, while the side-lines will give room ‘
for a couple of thousand more. Every
parking booth for automobiles was
sold within twenty minutes after they
were put on sale.
Should it rain, the game of.both
teams will suffer to some extent, but‘
if the day is clear and the fleld dry
and firm, probably the best game ever
witnessed at Grant Field will crop out.
Following is the probable line-up
of Georgla and Tech for to-morrow’s
game: |

played against Tech in the game last
year. Goree, Senter, Carpenter, Lang,

Tech team, played against Georgia.
So it will be seen that each team has
four new men in its starting line-ups.

Cunningham has one regular on

much attention from his dally drills.

usually the loser who walls about his

the Red and Black camp, and will be
none after the game, win or lose.
But Georgla does no.t expect to lose,
