Georgia-Furman Battle Big Attraction, Says Atlanta Paper
WARM OPPOSITION
TO RED AND BLACK
IS THE PREDICTION
Tlie following 1* from the At

By LAMAR TROTI
Tumbled out of warm and sooth
ing blanket* m the shivny dawn
to be accorded the mult excited
ornl triumphant reception Athena
has ever seen, the great fted and
Hlack football team of Georgia
came to the end of Its Yale Journey
Tuesday and turned its face to new
and arduous tasks It must lace in
the future.
Of the band 2S players, four
coaches, the faculty director of ath
letics and a member of the board
of truatecHs. four me missing, one
was on crutches, another bore his
arm in a sling, while another
could not open one eye.
Tho missing were: 'Duster Kll*
putric, quarter; "IVoo Willie”
lift teher. diminutive hack; "Big
Six” Luckl* and Jack Curran.
“Roose” Day was on crutches, Ike
Joselovo In a sling and Smack
Thompson suffered with his eye.
''Duster,” Juck, "Wee Willie and
Luckio went sight-seeing In Wash
ington Monday morning when tho
train stopped for a few hours bo
fore heading to Athens again.
Whether it was because some one
of the four, ‘ Duster," says, had to
mail a certain letter or "Dig Six"
was startled by the height of tho
Washington Monument or "Wee
Willie” couldn't get enough ham
and eggs to supply his demand, no
one knows, but when the train
pulled away the four were left be
hind.
The boya were In great spirits,
though, of course, tired from the
long Journey. New York had been
a lilt strenuous, too, and only a
few of the berth* were mud* on
tho trip home.

Every angle of tho gams Georgia
played against Yalo was re{tearscd
lp that time, the weaknesses noted,
and plans for tho futuro discussed.
Georgia Is a dangerous team and
now that It Is filled wilh confi
dence In its ability it should go
far. Tho games to ho played
however, are all of a doubtful and
serioua nature.
Furman in Augusta next Satur
day offers a warm opposition in
i.pite of tho fact that Mercer was
able to overwhelm the l’urple so
completely. It seems that Mercer
has lust struck Us stride and that
Furman wns taken more by sur
prisc and knocked off Its feet than
anything else. Georgia remembers
tie games Furman has plnyed in
tho past and knowa that Furman is
u dangerous foe.

Augusta with the last workout
scheduled to take place Thursday
before leaving for the scene of bat

TICKET SALE FOR
GA-FURMAN GAME
IS RECORD BREAKER
ATHENS. Ga.—With tickets for the
Georgia-Furman game in Augusta
next Saturday Belling rapidly. Indica
tions are that a crowd of 15,000 will
he present when the Red and Black
Bulldogs meet the Purple Hurricane.
The first day that the tickets were
placed on sale In Augusta more than
2,000 had been sold before noon. It
Is certain that the crowd at the game
will be the largest that ever attended
an athletic contest In that city.
Preparations have been made by
the Georgia Railroad to run a special
train from Athens to Augusta Sat
urday morning, returning Saturday
night with a round trip fare of $4.00.
Pullman accommodations may also
be secured on this train.
With the exception of minor In
juries to three of the players on the
Bulldog team, the outfit went through
the hard fought game with Yale un
scratchrd. Joselove had a dislcw
eated elbow which Is expected to be
all right before Saturday, while Bass'
injury is not sufficient to hinder his
playing. Roosevelt Day was carried
froin the field on a stretcher due to
an Injury to his knees but It was
Hated that he will he able to at
tend practice hy Wednesday after
noon, and will be In the game Satur
day.
While It was not officially stated.
It Is thought that Captain John
Fletcher will be able to get In the
line-up when the Bulldogs face the
Purple Hurricane.
The team will leave Athens Friday
and will return Sunday.
marred an otherwise clean record,
for Richmond won all other games
played, Including Porter, Gordon,
Savannah high end Riverside, and
was champion of the state. So
Richmond Is out for revenge and
hopes to get It.
The Richmond team last week
absorbed from some mysterious
source a full supply of pep and
team work (Ask Coach Carson for
details) and seemed an entirely new
team. The Carlisle team won by
far the best opponent Richmond
had faced tills season. Had the
local team plnyed ns It played in
Sage and Levie, both very capable
men. both In ability and experience.
Practically every man on the
squad took part In Wednesday's
Imbroglio with the Red-Cap eleven,
using the Furman plays.
The Frosh backfleld tore off gain

against these shaky formalities be
fore the team departs for the front
Friday.
Freshman Cook, a former Rich
mond Academy performer, made a
pleasing showing in the scrimmage
with the varsity squad. The Au
gustaan is a hard worker and an
earnest football student and stands
a good chance of seeing action in
some of the Freshman games this
fall.
While the Bulldogs are expecting
to win Saturday, they are not by
any means overconfident, as Laval,
the Hurricane coach, has been
pointing for this game, and a vic
tory over the Red and Black would
be equivalent to a successful sea
son. So the Georgians realize Just
what sort of opposition they will
go up against when they endeavor
to calm the Hurricane Saturday,
and are therefore not making the
mistake of taking the game as a
set-up.
