LUCK HAS ALWAYS
BEEN AGAINST
TECH TEAMS

TUST as the battle royal is
about to be fought, it would be
- well to take just a glance at the
important battles of Tech for the
last few years and see what an i'm
portant part luck has played in the
games-not exactly luck. but Just
a turning away of the face Of
good fortune" when victory, fame
and even a possible championship
has been at stake.
Take a look at the Georgia Tech
game of 1910, the first time that
Georgia had beaten Tech in seven
years. Red" Hill. on a beautiful
run around right end scored the
first touchdown of the game. and
Doc" Wilson kicked goal. the score
standing 6 to 0 at the end of the
drst half.
Georgia scored a touchdown on
hard play in the third quarter. but
the quarter ended with the ball in
Tech S possession on Georgia's ten
yard line. A signal. d buck. and a
tumble, and Georgia had the bah
and. with renewed courage, went up
the hin, and in the last minute Of
play scored the winning touch
down, Maddox being the man who
carried the ball across.
The game was so close that the
battle was called just as the last
play started, and Georgia won Just
by a fraction of a minute.
That was the main game for that
season. and it was lost
McWhorter Turned Trick.
Again we have something that is
uneXplainable to happen in the
Georgia game of 1911. Tech and
Georgia both played a beautiful
game. and in the first half the Vel
low Jackets twice had the bali on
Georgias eight-yard line, and yet
no score: but in an open field. after
several attempts on the same play.
Bob McWhOrter broke through
the line, and again Tech lost by
one lone touchdown. \ side back
was slow in coming up. and Nc
Whorter got a start, and that was
enough.
That was the biggest game lost
by a single misplay or rather an
unlucky coincidence.
Stop for a minute and glance al
the Auburn game, II to 6. Tech
had Auburn to up to the last
quarter and was on Auburn's five
yard line. when forward, pass play
was called and Newell an Auburn
sub Intercepted the pass and ran
lO5 yards for a touchdown and a
victory for Auburn. Just one fail
ure to back UP pass. and Tech
lost the best chance she will have
In years to defeat bitter rival
Sewanee Was Lucky, Too.
And now the same relentless Ne
mesis is still with the Tech team.
After having upset all dope and
played Sewanee a magnificent
game. a single fiuke. and the noun
tain tigers go back to their lair
with a ball with to 0 painted on

Now, the great question is: VIII
1t or will it not3 VIII luck break
even and let hard work and honest
effort get chance. or will it step
in just as the dawn of a better day
Is breaking and put Tech back in
the line of couldn't break the
jinx?'
With fair show. the yellow
Jackets have a medium chance of
scoring. but. score or no score. the
team viii put UP "a never-even-
think-of-die fight. and Georgia Ia
been stung before. and may be-
again.

The Corn Outlook.

On every side we hear a prediction
for bountiful corn crop and the deal
ers are already taking down the price,
however there is slight chance for low
priced corn as long as hogs remain
around the SO. mark, Perhaps it would
be as well for the farmers if corn were
not so high; last year, tempted by the
exceedingly high price offered, the
farmers sold off every possible barrel
of corn, in many instances more than
they could possibly spare, the conse-
quence was that stock emerged from a
long hard winter in poorer condition
than ever was known. In many in
stances they were fed on inferior corn
and hay, and sometimes fodder, which
caused disease and many horses died.
With corn bringing around So. the
farmer would not be so tempted to
curtail his winter supply and his stock
would winter better in consequence.

Efforts Of Boys Corn Club In Garrard
County Calculated To Teach Valu-
able Lesson In Practical
Farming.

The friendly rivalry among the boys
of the county in competing for the
offered prizes and to see who can raise
the best acre of corn is calculated to
be of twofold value; it will not only
offer valuable lessons to the boys and
prove an incentive to them, but it will
teach a valuable lesson to their elders
in practical farming. Take for in
stance an acre of corn being grown by
one of the contestants, son of Squire
R. F. Parsons in the Flatwood section
of the county. This acre of land is on
thin ground and the young man used
$500 pounds of fertilizer when putting
in his corn, he planted his corn eleven
inches apart, two stalks to the hill,
cultivated it we'll, and the result is
that conservative farmers who have
seen his crop say that it will yield %
barrels to the acre. This shows clear
ly what, under proper conditions and
proper usages may be done with this
class of soil.
Other contestants have equally as
good crops and the contest for the
championship and the coveted prem
iums promises to be lively one.

Goes To Pen.

In the Circuit Court Tuesday a Jury
found LeslieBurton coored guilty ofman-
slaughter and he was given an in
determinate sentence of from 2 to q
years in the penetentiary. Burton
shot and killed Herbert Hutchinson,
another negro, at a colored frolic at
White Oak below Bryantsville in No
yember 1911. At previous term of
court jury disagreed as to Burton s
guilt, and his final conviction was
doubles due to the vigorous prosecu-
ton by County Attorney ]. E. Robin
son, who is determined to break up the
crime prevalent among the colored peo-
pie who frequent these gatherings and
promote trouble.
The trial of Thomas Ralston for the
killing of George Finley at Paint Lick
was postponed until next Monday.

Clean Up The Alleys.

Some of the alleys of the city are in
a deplorable condition. both from a
sanitary point and as far as travel is
concerned. Some of the alleys are so
badly blocked with old vehicles and
such plumber as to make travel difficult
in day time and dangerous at night.
Others are in a sad condition from a
sanitary point. 1t would be a good
idea for the city council to look into
this matter and thereby save possible
suit against the city from someone
who is liable to be injured by these OBJ
structions, and also during the pre-
valence of SO much sickness every pre-
caution should be taken, by the city as
well as by individuals, to preserve
thevery best sanitary condition possible.

Will Champ Cashier Citizens National
Bank Stricken With Appendicitis
And UndergOes Operation.

Will F. Champ, the popular cashier
of the Citizens National Bank who has
been in rather poor health for the last
few months, went to Louisville on last
Saturday to consult a specialist as to
his malady. He was informed that he
was suffering with appendicitis and
also with dislocated kidney, and on
Monday morning at the Jewish hospital
in Louisville operations were performed
for both ailments. Mrs. Champ was
with him, as also was Mr.. Henry Moore,
a life long friend and business associ-
ate. Mr.. Moore has returned bringing
with him the cheering news that Mr..
Champ is doing we'll and that the
physicians offer every hope for his
speedy recovery, and prophecy that
barring the unforeseen, he will be home
in the course of three or four weeks.

A Happy Reunion.

On the 22nd inst Mr., and Mrs. S. B.
Henry had gathered around their hos
pitable board for the first time during
their entire married life the complete
family, the oldest child having left
home to reside in Arkansas before the
youngest was born, and all of them
never since having been at home at the
same time. TwentY-six, including
children and grand children partook of
the meal, and it was indeed a source
of much qualification to Mr.. and Mrs.
Henry to have all of their loved ones
thus gathered about them. A liberal
purse was made up by the assembled
children and presented to the old folks.
