Football Season Closing Fast Dixie Teams Will Be Out for Practice Soon
VANDY AND GEORGIA TEAMS WILL BE LOUD NOISE

ham has lot of fine men this year,
with one real STAR-Bob McWhor-
ter.
II ERE in Atlanta it is about the
IL same old tale-TeCh hasn't
much material or much hope, but
with Coach Heisman in charge
there is sure to be a we'll trained
team which will make a creditable
showing. That's all Atlanta has any
right to hope for. Technical
schools don't turn out great teams.
They never have-and they never
will until some method is discov-
cred by which football candidates
can do laboratory and shop work in
their sleep.
The Tech team will play much it's
usual schedule, with Sewanee, Au-
burn and Clemson as the feature
games and with the big climax, the
Georgia contest. coming as usual
in mid season instead of at the end
where it should be.
The new rules aren't going to
make things any easier for Tech
this year. Last year they rather
favored the Yellowjackets. They
made it possible for team of
light, fast men who knew football
to cope with most anything. The
rules committee, by performing
back flip and allowing four downs
instead of three, have automatically
brought the big husky back into his
old. proud position in football. This
year quick thinking and quick run
ming will give place to weight and
brue strength This will hurt Tech.
for they don't seem to send big men
to the Georgia School of TechnoI-
ogy these days.
COACH Stroud, of the Mercer
team. will be back in Macon
early in September He has been
summering in EXter. Cal. but will
leave there in a couple of weeks.
The candidates will assemble about
mid September. and will buckle
right down to work, for they have
a game September IS.
Mercer has a pretty hard and a
peculiarly badly balanced schedule.
After opening with a prep school
game-a thing that no self-respect-
ing college team is expected to do
these days-the Baptists take on
the tough Auburn team on Octo-
Der }. Then comes an easy game.
with Howard Then the Tech team
inyades Macon for a game with
Stroud's men. This is set for Oc-
tober 49, Then comes an easy game
with Columbia college (of Florida,
doubtful contest with Tennes-
see, a hard game with Clemson and
the usual anti-chmax with Univer-
sity Of Florida.
Stroud will return most Of last
years men and expects for once to
have a team at Mercer that will
rank right with the best in the

"The Worst Roy"

He was the worst boy in town
 One day this boy and others engaged in a sort of expedition along the river bank. As they passed the bridge the for lorn meow of a cat sss prolonged into 2 cry that was almost human.
 It was q plea for help
 The gang paused. Over on one of the low stone piers upon which the bridge was built was a lone pussy sending ,fp it's Macedonian cry 10 come over and help.
 The poor thing had climbed down the sketon steel plates to the pier and did not have sense enough to climb back the same way. Marooned, it sent up its wall.
 The piteous plea gos under the ragged
 ~orst t,ov. Though he knew the water was cold. he began 10 take off his shoes and stockings.
 "Aw, Bill" said one. its only cat. It'H get off all right, Jet 1t go."
 "Shut vour mouth.'' responded Bill. I'm doing this, and know what I'm doin,. and don't you forget it."
 The worst boy waded in and got the cat, which foolish pussy, in terror lest it be thrown into the water yowled and scratched uumercifuly.
 Throw il in tho water, Bill. All cats can swim.
