THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN.HATURDAY, DECEMBER 1, 190(5.
UP-TO-DATE NEWS
OF SPORTING WORLD
LAST FOOTBALL GAME TODAY
EDITED BY
PERCY H. WHITING
NOT NEWS, BUT VIEWS
. , By PERCY H. WHITING.
The Tecli-Clemson game proved one thing quite conclusive
ly—the public does not want aqy more games in which there is
any agreement to allow more time to be taken out than is pro
vided by the rules.
In Thursday’s game, by agreement, both- teams were ai-,
lowed to take out ten minutes in each half. Both teams took
full advantage of this agreement and , in. consequence the game
dragged more than any in Atlanta this season.
The spectators want fast football and they do not care to
sit out in the cold and watch a couple of dozen big, Htrong boys*
and men sit on a damp held and rest.
The ride providing a penalty if cither team takes out Sine
on account of injuries to players more than three times during
a half if one of the beat from the spectator’s viewpoint, of the
new code, and it might be a good scheme to make the penalty
more severe instead of less.
The football dope artists have had a hard time of it this year.
The writer closed his season in a marvelous' blaze of glory by
missing the winner and miscalculating the score on the Tcch-
Clemson game by nbout 15 points. Before the game it looked like
Tech by one touchdown. Afterwards, as history records, it look
ed qiijtc different.
One of the star features of football under the new rules has
been the delightful uncertainly of the thing. (
In years past a man who had the past scores at hand and
knew a little about the general conditions of the teams could not
only tell which was going to win, as a ride; but could pipe off the
probable score with phenomenal accuracy.
This year the man was a wonder who could pick the winner
and the men who tried to do any guessing on the score usually
went woefully astray.
However, as n rule the best teams have won, the football has
been clearer, faster and more open.
The public is pretty well satisfied with football as it stands
and the game will be played this way for another year or two, all
right, all right.
The Vanderbilt football team undoubtedly made a wise se
lection when the honor of captain for 1907 was given to Bob
Bloke.
Bob is the greatest of a historic line of payers, probably the
most brilliunt member of the squad of 1906, and undoubtedly the
greatest end ever developed in the South.
With hik cool head, his knowledge of men and his popularity
he ought to make a great leader for the Commodores.
M’Cormiek, the Princeton fullback, it shown in the abovt photograph making one of hit brilliant and daring plunges through the line. The arrow
shows him boring through the center of the West Point line, aided by the propelling power of every pound of Princeton beef. The picture was taken
when the Tigers defeated the Army. McCormick was used at this stage of the game because the Princetonans were within 5 yards of a touch*
down. The big fullback, unlike many players, makes it^ point to keep on his feet and thereby gain every inch possible.

In the above telegram Robert Simp
son, professional of the Memphis Coun
try Club, Issues hlv deft to Alex Smith,
open golf champion of America and
professional of the Atlanta Athletic
Club's course.
The proposal Is for a home-and-home
match. 3« hole* on c*ch course, and
ths winner to take the $600 offered by
the member* of the twp clubs;
When Mr. Smith wns shown the
challenge he accepted on behalf of
hlnfself with a jump.
'The nerve of him," said Smith,
"challenging me, that brought him to
this country', and doing It before 1 get
my feet on the new course.
/ "It's up to the club. I’ll play him in
a minute If the money is put up. And
jell him for me that If the club does
i:<«t want to do it. I’ll play him for 950
..f my own money. Rut don’t the con-
«eit of that boy get you?" and the
Wizard of Carnoustie snorted aloud.
The project was favorably discussed
by the members of the club to whom
It was submitted and there la little
doubt but that the money will bo raised
and the challenge accepted by the local
club on behulf of Alex Smith.
Smith does not want the $250 put up'
as a purse. It is his desire that helbe
backed for the $250 against Simpson.
If he toses then the local backers lose
the $250. If he wins, they win, and
can do what they please with the
money. It Is certain that If Smith
wins the $250 put up by tfie members
of the Memphis club. It will be turned
over to Smith aa a testimonial of ap
preciation.
The match ought to be the best of its
kind In the South this winter. Smith’s
position In the golfing world Is so well
known that It Is hardly worth while
talking about It.
Simpson Is not so well known, but he
1h h worthy opponent for any golfer.
Like Smith, he is a product of the links
at Carnoustie, though he has not been
In this country as long ns the local pro.
While he was playing around Chicago
he was, as much feared as any of the
Windy City professional players, and
last summer he went North and won
the Western professional's champion
ship, an event in which he did not meet
Smith.
A tournament Is planned for the Kan
Lake golf course for this afternoon.
The prlxe Is a cup offered by Crafts
Higgins, publisher of the Golfers’ Mng-
axlne, of Chicago, conditional on 25
Here foes for a discussion of the
question of "all-anythIng" teams, a
few words about an all-Southern and
some more, about an all-S. I. A. A.
Tho writer had planned to pick an
all-S. I. A. A. team, not because lie
felt especially fitted or especially
"called," but just because It was cus
tomary. f
And yet, right here nt the critical
moment, his nerve falls him. It re
solves Itself down to the question of
"What’s the use of making so many
enenilos over a small matter?" and the
writer thereupon ducks.
Above will bo found the names of the
men who seem to be the certainties for
position on tho all-8. I. A. A. These are
the men whom the writer and all the
football men he has talked with on the
subject agree cannot be kept off the
all-8. I. A. A. team by any pnblased
"picker."
As to the other positions—well, you
can take your choice and there will be
no hard feeling, as fur as the writer Is
concerned. *
' No 8erioua Matter.
When you come to think about It, tho
picking of an all-American, all-South
ern, all-S. I. A. A. or "ull-anything"
team Is something of a "Joke."
If the experts could all agree on a
team, or If they could hit anywhere
near It, there would bo # tt feeling of
ontldenco Instilled In the minds of the
football players and experts that may-,
be, ufter all, these teams did amount to
something and really represented the
best players In the section In which tho
picking was done.
nut the critics can’t agree and It Is
certain that their Ignorance of the ac
tual playing abilities of playerk Is some
thing alarming.
For years the all-American teams of
the great experts did not ever Include a
Western player, though tho West was
developing just as good men as the
country had ever seen. For a couple of
years the "Official" all-Southern, which
uppeared In Spalding’s guide, was
picked by a man who perhaps never
saw a game In the middle Soqth and
whoso mistakes w'ere so Ougrant and so
obvious as to make Ills all-Southern u
fine piece of comedy.
No critic can hope to see all the pos
sible members of an all-S. I. A. A. team
In action often enough to ho perfectly
sure that they arc worthy of honors,
unless their ability Is so marked that
there can be no question of doubt. Such
men os Mnnter am* Bob Wake, of Van
derbilt, could be picked by any man
who had once seen them play. They
were all-Southern men last year and

any dam could pick them again this
year. But when It comes to tilling tlio
positions of left end. left guard and left
tackle the complications aro quite
morous.
Coach Williams Protaata.
C. R. Williams, couch at Clemson,
has the following to say In a letter to
the writer, on the question of picking
ull-Southern teams:
"In my opinion the grossest possible
errors are often made in calling at
tention to the ability and playing of
members of teams In the newspaper
accounts of. gafnes. If more cure nnd
judgment were exercised In the selec
tion and discussion of the numerous
ull-Southern teams each season the de
velopment and advancement of any
number of players would be wonder
fully Improved. My experience as a
coach has almost brought me to the
point of discrediting the opinion of
writers on all-Southern teams. I find
so few of these selections worthy of
tho honor. This is one weak point in
Southern football; the fact there seems
to be no. fair-minded man of broad
views, absolutely Impartial, but with
out motive to select annually a repre
sentative all-Southern team. As yet,
not one of the numerous writers has
been able to acquire the confidence of
tho public sufficiently to have all other
selections put aside for his choice as
being the best * and fairest. I trust
we are going to develop the ohe de
partment of football more substantially
1,1 ‘whTsOME ARE LEFT OUT.
It Is usually unwise for uny writer
In this territory to pick anything but
an All-S. I. A. A. team. The S. I. A. A.
teams play few games outside the as
sociation, so that comparisons are hard
to make. And, owing to the rather lax
athletic morals of many Southern
teams outside the fold, a man who
picks an All-Southern Is likely to run
In a lot of professionals, tramp ath
letes and the like. ,
It ought not to be so difficult to pick
an All-8. I. A. A. team thlB year. Just
ask yourself the question, "How many
members of the Vanderbilt team can
you leave off the All-S. I. A. A. team,
and when you have answered that
question you have the team you w'ant.
NASH BUCKINGHAM’S VIEWS.
One of the very best of the reuliy
unbiased football critics of the South Is
Nash Buckingham, ex-Tennessee play
er and football writer for The Memphis
Commercial-Appeal. In a recent let
ter to tho writer, Mr. Buckingham
suid:
"Vanderbilt simply outclasses every
thing else In the S. I. A. A. so far that
interest is practically at a standstill.
It’s like a lot of ‘dogs’ 111 with Rose-
ben. And another thing that Impresses
me is that tho standard of the S. I. A.
A. teams has, along with Vandy’s con
tinued rise, gone down, down, down. I
do not, however, regard this as neces
sarily a protracted state of affairs, for
should 3>IeGugln leave and the foot
ball winters deal unkindly with the
ranks of the unconquered—why, they
will, like as not, drop back to the
immature standard of the other teams.
Butfwhat you ask In regard to an All-
Southern—an Everybody’s—that’s quite
’plckable’ this year; In fact, It looks
so simple that I think with your hum
ble opinion to deul as desired. I’ll give
you my idea of the team I’d. pick, and
fully. Intend to—if the chance comes
my way. But, barring al Ithis, the fact
remains that as she stands today Van
derbilt ran make any aggregation
picked from Southern ranks look like
freshmen—simply for the reason that
their.team Is right—eleven good men
playing as one good eleven.
"In fact, the atmosphere up there Is
charged with the spirit of get there,
beef, speed and success, as Southern
elevens go.
"But here’s my Idea: 8tone,'of Van
derbilt, center; Conner and Elmer, of
Mississippi, guards; Pritchard and
Stone, at Sewanee, tackles; Bob Blake,
Vanderbilt, and Huggins, of MIsstsstp*
nl, end*; Costen, of Vanderbilt, and
Markley. of Sewanee, quarters, and the
entire Vanderbilt backfield of D. Blake,
Manler and Craig. Stone Is heavy,
experienced and fast, has played all
Along the line from end to end—and
Conner, of Mississippi, weigh each over
iio, are All-Southern men at Virginia.
and with an organization of that sort
—this All-Southern we’re. picking
would outclass everything in these
part* and hold their own anywhere. It
might bo better to play Conner at cen
ter and Stone at guard. Pritchard and
Stone, of Sewanee, would take care of
tackles—you know what Bob Blake Is,
and Huggins, the big 190-pound Mis
sissippi fullback, would top him off at
the other end In what. I think, would
be a faultless pair. You may know
better, faster quarters than Markley
and Costen. but I don’t. Same with
the backfield—you can’t beat It. For
substitutes. Tech may afford you a
man and Parrish, of Texas, Is a splen
did linesman."
Tt Is hard to agree fully with Mr.
Buckingham, but In the main his Ideas
aro those of the best Informed writers
In the South.
Now for Just a word on the men who
Bob Blake la absolutely certain of hla
poaltlon at end. A trained foAlball
player of three or toUr yeara* prep
acbool football work, nnd three yearn
of play with Vanderbilt In tho way of
experience, a perfect npectmen of ath
letic manhood, a man who know* the
game from end to end, a punter of mar
velous ability and the man whoie place
kicks .cored this year against Michi
gan and Carlisle, he In more certain
of his position than any man on the
team. If he had played this year with
^ ale, Harvard or Princeton he would,
no doubt, be on this year’s All-Ameri
can.
Manler Is equally certain. Physically
he Is the equal of any man and his
work In lino plunging has seldom been
equaled.
A discussion of the playing ability of
Pritchard, Stone, Costen, Dan Blake
and Craig will be reserved for a later
time. ’
Now Just a word as to the other can
didates. • The three Vanderbilt regulars
who are regarded as uncertainties are
Ed Noel, Vaughn Blake and McLain.
All three are wonders, but It Is no cer
tainty that they will be picked.
Among the great players of other
teams are Tackle Sims and Halfback
Burks, of Alabama; ’'Lobster" Brown,
of Tech: Watkins, stone and Shipp, of
Sewanee: Howard Ketron, of Georgia:
McLaurln and Derrick, of Clemson—
two of the best men In the South this
year—Elmer and Conner, of Missis,
slppl.
Probably some others were over
looked, but this covers about the great
est of the bunch.
The South has had a number of good
players this year and the question of

Dec. I.—Much of the remarkable suc
cess of the Georgia team this year has
been due to the great touching of
George Whitney.
This year has been his first at Geor
gia and he has made a distinct success.
• Last year’s team was one of the
poorest which ever represented Georgia
and the whole season was disastrous-
This made things very difficult for Mr.
Whitney when he began work in nen-
tember. But he determined to give
Goorgla a good team and set to work
from the Jump. Everybody knows how
well he has succeeded.
• Coach* Whitney |s very popular with

Athens Is hoping that he will be back
to coach Georgia next year.
