The victory" of the Yellow Jackets
can be attributed not to mediocre
work.on the. part of t ody’s athletes
hut to superior and many times spec
tacular playing on tlu* part of Emory,
•leaks, Tech forward, and "Baby
Koanc, running guard. These men,
though ably assisted by Captain Jim
my Brevvster; Kckford ' and "Ki d"
Murphy, Were tile principal thorns in
the Macon collegians' side.
.leaks .'simply couldn't he stopped
and.-was high point man of the melee
with a total of 22 tallies,'.these being
the result of seven field goals anil-
eight fouls. Out of fiflectl attempts
he scored exactly one-half of the
Jackets- pojnts, Joe Kckford came
next \vith live field' goals.
Koanc did-scum- of the most spec-'
tacuiur goal shooting that wi' have-
seen in mimy a -Hay. lit- racked up
a total of four Held goals for. elgilt
points afid cve’**y .one of these were
"f the sensational variety, far past
the foul line, and in most instances
from the center of the court. '
In the rooting line'Mi ri er was well
represented, there* being at least 30(F

crowd, cheering for the Afacon quin

The Jackets played, the greatest
gairie any Tech team has exhibited to
date and won handily, 44 to 3.5, lead
ing most of the route. By lining so
Tech obtained a flowing measure of
that sweet nectar- termed revenge
since - Mercer was the victor by a
scant two-point" margin in the first
meeting in Macon two weeks ago. So;
while games stand fifty-fifty, Tech
can point to the fact—though it
means nothing'- that she’s . got the
better of t he, argument in point dif
ference.
The going was. at a terrific clip all
the. way and never until the last few
minutes' did' Tech get* a .lead which
justified a moment to mark time
Mercer took the 1 d hut once, having

game. Then' Messrs.. llindenjiurg
