HEAVY RIVERSIDE TEAM AT COMING
GEORGMROLI El, OCT. 23
Football Day Will Probably Be Biggest Day of Entire Fair.
Riverside Ranks High in Athletics, But Academy is Forging
Rapidly to the Front.
Football Day, the big day at the
Georgia-Carolina Fair will witness the
inauguration of a new order of things
in the local football world. The old
cry of “patronize home Industry” has
reached the ears of the fair directors
and they have heeded It. For the first
time In the history of Georgia-Caro
lina Fairs the big date has been given
to the team representing the local In
stitution, the Richmond Academy. The
day of the fair, Thursday, Oct.
-. the Academy eleven will clash with
the team of Riverside Military Acad
emy of Gainesville.

YOU hear a great deal of talk from certain
interested quarters about the “danger” of sac
rificing strength in building light-weight cars.
Well, they have to talk about something.
Now, what’s the truth about this question? Is it really
necessary —as some would have you think that a car of
average size, 120 inch wheel base, should weigh two tons
or more?
Is it really necessary to use heavy cast iron parts when
the very best engineering practice proves that aluminum or
pressed steel serve better and with much less weight?
No, it is not nirmiryl

hand with light weight.

years ago no one outside a fifty-mile
radius of Augusta—and but few with
in this radius—knew that there were
such things as A. R. C. athletic teams.
One or two games within a season
would be played and these would be
the typical slipshod high school con
tests. The revolution had its begin
ning last fall when Bradley Chester
took up the directorship of the school’s
athletics and “Dutch” Sancken offer
ed his services as coach of the foot
ball team. With a practically green
squad, Sancken wrought so well that
the close of the season showed that the
Academy had scored a total of 139
points against i 3 for thetr opponents,
and had won 5 of the 8 games played,
losing by such close scores as 6-12,

7-20, and 7-8. Among the victories
was one over Stone Mountain by the
score of 13-3.
The baseball team, ably coached by
Howard Wienges, the local pitcher who
has been the star of the Georgia State
League for the past two seasons, was
even more successful. Of the seven
school teams played, five were defeat
ed in every contest, G. M. C. and Riv
erside alone proving able to check the
victorious march. Riverside was the
victor In the one game played between
the two teams by a very dose score,
leaving G. M .C. alone to gain any de
cisive advantage.
The Team This Season.
At the opening of school this year
prospects for a team that would match
with last year’s aggregation were most
discouraging, only four of last year’s
regulars were back in harness and the
first call for practice brought out but
little new material. In spite of such
scarcity of material, Head Coach Wil
son and Assistants Learned and Dan
forth went to work with the determi
nation to put out the best team the
old school has ever had and they seem
to have succeeded far beyond their
hopes. There is no questioning the
fact that the present team is far su
perior to the 1913 team at a corre
sponding period. The coaches have
taken men absolutely new to the game,
have taught them the fine points of
the game, Instilled Into them the ‘do
or die” spirit, with the result that they
have molded a machine that bids fair

to be the football sensation of the
year.
Riverside’s Reputation.
For years Riverside, G. M. C., and
Gordon have ranked far above other
prep s hools of the state in the realm
of athletics. All three being boarding
schools they draw material from ev
ery part of the state. These schools
having gained athletic reputations
young men athletically inclined are
rather apt to choose to attend one of
them so that he may gain fame in
prep football or baseball circles. Heavy
men, fast men, many men sums up
the material from which their coaches
have to chose their teams. It is noth
ing unusual for them to have fifty to
sixty husky candidates out for the
football team -In fact this Is uliout the
number all of them reported this sea
son. Consequently they are enabled
to put out heavy, experienced teams,
teams capable of making most credit
able showings against the better col
lege teams and capable of defeating
many of the minor college elevens.
Recognition of A. R. C.
The local school, possessing none of
these opportunities for securing ma
terial, depending entirely upon Augus
ta boys, going further than that and
enforcing most rigid scholastic re
quirements for representation on any
team, has, nevertheless, forged ahead
in the matter of athletic rating to such
a degree that It Is admitted that its
teams deserve a place alongside the
‘‘Big Three.” No better evidence of
such recognition can be given than the
fact that Gordon has asked for a gntno
with the football team to be played in
Barnesvllle, knowing that It will take
a S2OO crowd to cover the expenses
of bringing a team from such a dis
tance. Evidently the management
considers that the Richmond Acad
emy team will draw better in Barnea
ville than any other prep team.
Weight v». Speed.
Riverside’s reputation in football is
too well known to need further com
ment. Richmond Academy’s reputa
tion, while new, is £>ased In the kind
of stuff that will make it lasting.
Hence football fans have a real treat
In store for them when the two teams
clash during the fair. On account of
its greatly superior weight, Riverside
has a slight edge—on the other hand,
the open style of play of the locals
and their unusual speed In getting off
their plays make anything likely to
happen. It will be a fight to the fin
ish fir victory for both aggregations
are keenly desirous of getting a wedge
Into the state prep championship.

halted while Captain Raynsford, of
Michigan, protested against alleged
unfair tactics by Cody, of Vander
bilt. The officials, however, decided
Cody had not committed any act for
which he should be removed. A few
moments later a substitute replaced
the aggressive tackle. Muelbetsch, of
Michigan, and Captain Sykes, of Van
derbilt, were the powerful ground
gainers. The former was worked
overtime and probably advanced the
pigskin more than any two other
players.
Took Advantage of Fumbles.
The Huceesa of Vanderbilt In re
covering Michigan fumbles kept the
score down. On four occasions the
ball dropped from a Michigan man’s
arms when he was tearing toward a
touchdown.
Early In the first period a fumble
by Huggitt, when he was tackled
fiercely, gave Vanderbilt the hall.
Cody promptly drop kicked a field
fjgonl from the 25-yard line. Michigan
(scored a touchdown and Hughitt
kicked goal toward the end of the
quarter.
Maulbetsch carried the hall again
j.nd again in the second period and
finally took it across Vanderbilt’s
goal. 1 highlit missed the try for goal.
Spi ;i\vn later contributed a field goal.
The third period wns scoreless, but
