Bulldogs Are Hard at Work For Battle at Augusta on Saturday
Georgia Not Expecting
Easy Work In Contest
With Purple Hurricane

ATHENS, Ga.—Twenty-seven

versity of Georgia headed by
Coaches Woodruff. Stegman,
Thomas and Mehre, pulled Into
Atljens early Tuesday morning and
were given a rousing reception by
several hundred student* and the
University Band. That afternoon
found every man with the excep
tion of Day and Joselove, who were
laid up with Injuries from Satur
day's affair with Yale, out on San
ford Field engaged In earnest prep
aration for their next game with
Furman In Augusta Saturday.
As above stated, every man with
the exception of ‘‘ltoosc." Day and
"Ike” Joselove, are in fine shape
and ready to see action against
the Purple Hurricane when the two
teams lock horn* In mortal combat
on Saturday. In the beginning, It
may l»e stated with no fear of
contradiction that the Bulldogs are
not exporting any easy sailing
against the Hurricane that they will
rua Into Augusta. It ha* never been
Georgia's experience yet to find
Furman an easy foe and the Bed
and Blacker* are hardly likely to
find this game an exception.
Coach Woodruff put one eleven
through a stiff scrlmmnge with the
first-year men, while the other two
ran signals after which the line

Otis Skinner’s Acting Is Superb In
“Sancho Panza,” Presented Here
Miguel de Cervantes’ picturesque
and lovable character, "Sancho
Panza”, whose dog-like devotion
and loyalty to Don Quixote made
th-e name of this moronic peasant
a synonym for steadfastness In
Spain, is strikingly portrayed by
Otis Skinner in thd prologue to
this great drama, presented at the
Imperial last night, and then In
four delightful acts there Is re
vealed the artist’s conception of
Sancho Panza as “governor of the
island” Don Quixote promised him.
When the mind becomes adjust
ed to the bifuracted role of Sancho
Panza in Melchior Lengyel’s fan
tastic comedy, and begins to absorb
the masterful work of Otis Skinner,
not only the purport of this wonder
ful nlay is understood but the
magnificent work of the leading
actor is appreciated.
We were as slow as the don’s
nag, Rozinate, in getting into the
spirit of the play, but who wouldn't
finally warm up to Otis Skinner in
any role. The wonderful clarity of
fcis words, his expression, the
dulcet richness of his voice, .never
fail to charm, and in this play we
find no exception. Then, too, there
are the philosophic—-the socratic—
messages that the author of the
play has him to utter, which are
impossible of omission in describing
the charm of the show. *
The cast is a strong one, but the
spotlight is so closely centered
about Otis Skinner that we would
never remember any of the other
characters, unless it were Lucile
Kahn as the young duchess, and
| Herbert Delmore as Gregory, her
lover.
The indescribable charm of the
Spanish scenes, the tinge of ro
mance, bizarre costumes, the
proverbial donkey, all give a touch
of glamour that grips and holds the
spectator, and it makes a pretty
setting for the inimitable work of
Otis Skinner.
The playwright’s Imagination is
little short of that of the great Cer
vantes himself, and in this play the
former seizes upon much of the
humour and pathos of the famous
Spanish classic and at the same
time adds thereto a rich portion of
philosophy.
It is a smutch upon Augusta’s
appreciation of theatrics that even
a few seats were vacant last night,
when we have for comparison the
very antithesis of this play In
‘‘Bringing Up Father,” presented
the night before, which played to
standing room. Where Russell
Janney spends ten dollars to pre
sent Otis Skinner and his great
cast, wo are told that the company
of Monday night spends one dollar.
