sustained for Three Years, Clean,
and VIII Fight Against a Score.
Arrangements have been perfected
whereby a special train will carry Sa-
yannah rooters over to Charleston on
New Years Day, when the blue and
white eleven goes over to play the all
star team that the Charleston Athletic
Association will get together.
A number Of we'll known citizens,
anxious to see as many Savannahians
20 over to cheer the boys on as posi-
bic, got together yesterday and agreed
to charter a special train for that day,
and to put the rates down so low that
everybody that could get away from
business could go over, and the pros
poets now are that nearly 500 people
will be carried. The round trip rates
will be $3.50.
Capt. Cope said yesterday that 1t
had been finally decided that there
would be no change in the Savannah
team from that which lined up against
Georgia on Nov. IA. All of the men
who have worked with the team, and
have helped to make it what it is will
be given the preference over all others
Georgia Much Interested.
Mr. Frank McIntire, who spent sew
eral days in Athens assisting in
coaching the Georgia eleven for the
Auburn game, said that the game be-
tween Savannah and Charleston was
discussed as much as the Georgia-Au-
burn game, and it was there that Mr..
McIntire learned of the engagement of
a number of the star players on the
Clemson team to play with Charleston
against Savannah on New Years Day.
Coach Dickinson, who has seen Glenn
son play, and has had the Georgia
team up against that aggregation of
ball players, said that he believed that
Savannah would win, and that with
the benefit of the games that the blue
and white eleven will have had when
she meets Charleston that she could
defeat the Clemson team as a whole.
Much interest is felt in Atlanta also
in the outcome of the Savannah
TO- sl-ke n
received here daily making inquiries
as to the Savannah prospects, etc. A
large delegation from Athens will go
to Charleston to witness the contest,
and also a number from Atlanta, and
1t is supertluouS to say that they will
all root for the Savannah eleven.
Cope and McIntire VIII Be Ready.
Capt. Cope and Frank McIntire, who
were forced, from injuries received in
the Georgia game, to stay out of the
game with Jacksonville, are rounding
into shape rapidly, and will line up with
the team on New Years. 1t is hard
ly possible that Capt. Cope will run
the risk of being injured again by go
ing into the game with Macon Christ
mas. The Macon game is looked on
as a foregone conclusion that Savan-
nah will win easily, and the only real
exertion will be to keep the visitors
from scoring.
savannah's Record.
The team which Savannah now
boasts of was practically organized
three years ago, and in that time has
not been scored against. Eleven
games have been played with some of
the best teams that dates could be ar
ranged with. and in the eleven games
Savannah piled up 1873 points.
The strong team that Jacksonville
had in 1900 was the only one that ever
prevented Savannah from scoring, both
teams playing a no score game on
Thanksgiving and Christmas.
