Tech Eleven in Fine
Shape After Struggle
With Heavy Sewanee

Fired with the determination TO over
come Luck" the dauptless Yellow
Jackets have started on the last hard
weeks work of the season.
No one was injured in the Sewanee
game and from present indications win
go into the fray with Georgia in tip
top shape long and hard signal
practice comprised the larger part OF
the work yesterday but today the hard
est scrimmage of the year is expected.
Secret practice is being held and abso-
lutely 70 one but players and managers
are allowed on the field. This is not so
much precautionary move. but merely
a matter Of saving time and labor by
not being worried with curious crowds
Saturday marks the climax in the
affairs OF Tech football affairs and alb
solutely everything will be turned loose
in order TO make as good a showing as
is possible against such overwhelming
odds both in weight and experience.
and also in luck
The men are going good and more
spirit is being displayed than ever be-
fore, and though the finger Of destiny
seems to point 10 defeat. the Techites
may pe able to show some football OF

that this will be Cunningham's plan
of battle 1t takes no Stonewall
Jackson to know that Heisman's
mind is now perturbed alone by the
question of how he will keep his
forwards from being beaten to

If Techs first defense can. by
some miracle, be brought to stand
the smashing for four long quar-
ters, the gloom that now hovers
over the Flats may be transformed
to a brillianoe as glorious as
sunrise. But If Heisman succeeds
In this he will have performed an
act that will put him in the Joshua
class-and Joshua, it will be re-
membered, made the sun stand STILL
For there is no gainsaying the
fact that, though the battles that
the Yellow and White made against
Auburn and Sewanee and Alabama
have been as remarkable exhibit
tions of the value of careful train
ing and unqualified lighting spirit.
still it is no less a fact that in the
face of the superiority in beef, if
nothing else. that Georgia possesses,
practically dooms all this work to
go for naught Fate has appar-
emily decreed that Tech must suf-
fer defeat from her most bitter ri
val.

Old Time Pitcher Says Boxmen
WasteMuch Energy Warming Up

is necessary is for them to work
out their shoulder muscles only
enough toy be sure they are stretch
ed enough out of the necessary
suppleness. There is no need of
getting up the big sweats that
pitchers seem to think they require
nowadays OF course, we old
timers loved the good old sweat
the same as pitchers do now, but
we would not ever exert ourselves
to get it before a game, to that ex-
tent that 1t would weaken us.
II have watched Tesreau and
Marquard warm up before games
at the Polo grounds this past sum-
mer when felt like calling them
down myself. Tesreau makes a
lot of work for himself when he is
pitching anyhow. He has a tear
ing. wearing delivery and, being q
big fellow, he works himself much
more than pitchers with a smooth
er action.
"On4R hot day such as / saw him
warm up and the way the perspira-
ton poured off him, he must have
been pretty nearly all in before the
game started, and he surely showed
it by his work in the first few in
nfngs Of couple of games well
remember.
A Waste Of Energy.
In the ten minutes Of warm-up
work a pitcher who works fast, as
most of them do now, will pitch
nearly as many balls as he may be
called on to use during an entire
game, and he pitches his head off
in practice, too. In my opinion 1t
can not help but be a most need
less and dangerous waste of ener-
gy. 1t is bound to be.
Again, 1 have noticed that the
other players, besides the pitchers
work too much before a game. 1t
is all well enough to have speed to
burn and give a lightning fast ex-
hibition Of preliminary fielding for
the benefit of the spectators, but
when that period is over the plav-
ers should take short rest before
the game begins; but no, they are
out doing their lively stunts that
must sap their stamina and take all
the ginger and good old pop out OF
them"
Lynch has always been a great
student Of pitching and baseball.
He knows more about box work
and its science right now than the
majority of the pitchers who are
drawing salary. He was always an
originator and was the discoverer
of some of the most effective deliy-
cries now in use. He would be a
model pitcher-coach If he could be
induced to accept such a position.

GEORGIA AND TECH
re A MS MATCHED
EVENLY-ON PAPER

Application of the arithmetical q
rule of ratio and proportion to the q
games thus far played this season Z
shows that the Georgia and Tech Z
football teams that meet in At q
lanta Saturday are-on paper 4
evenly matched. 4
Georgia and Tech, thus far this {
season, have each played six q
games. Georgia has scored 118 q
points to the oppositions "a. Tech 4
has scored II to the opposition's Z
40. The ratio rule works out that 4
11S is to "A as II is to At, or re- 4
versing 1t, II is to 40 as 118 is Z
to II. Either way it shows the Z
scores to be almost exactly In pro- I
portion.
Georgia and Tech have each I
played three teams-Sewanee. I
Alabama and Citadel. The COM Z
bined scores for these games show I
Georgia SO to the opposition's %, I
and Tech 40 to the opposition's Is. I
The ratio rule on these results I
shows SO is to % as 40 is to IT, or I
reversing it, 40 is to 16 as SO is to I
. 23-again almost exactly in the I
proportion of the actual scores. I
OF course, arithmetic does not I
cut much figure In football, but I
the figures are nevertheless inter- 4
esting as forming basis for COM I
parison of the results achieved by I
the rivals this season.

LUCK HAS ALWAYS
BEEN AGAINST
TECH TEAMS

TUST as the battle royal is
about to be fought, it would be
- we'll to take Just glance at tho
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
turning away Of the face of
good fortune" when victory, fame
and even a possible championship
has been at stake.
Take 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
hrst touchdown Of the game. and
doc" Wilson kicked goal. the score
standing to 0 at the end of the
t1rst half
Georgia scored a touchdown on
hard play In the third quarter. but
the quarter ended with the ball in
Tecns possession on Georgia's ten
yard line. A signal, a buck, and a
tumble, and Georgia had the ball
and, with renewed courage, went up
the hill, 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 lust
by a fraction of a minute.
That was the main game for that
season, and it was lost.
Mo~hOrtsr 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 yell
low Jackets twice had the ball on
Georgia's eight-yard line, and yet
no score; but in an open field, after
several attempts on the same play.
BOD McWhorter broke through
the line, and again Tech lost by
one lone touchdown. A side back
was slow in coming up, and Nc
Whorter got a start, and that was
enough.
That was the biggest game lost
by single misplay, or rather an
unlucky coincidence.
Stop for minute and glance at
the Auburn game, II to 6. Tech
had Auburn s 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
105 yards for a touchdown and a
victory for Auburn. Just one fail
ure to back up a 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, single fluke, and the noun
'"ih bselS go BACK 10 their lar
with ball with to painted on
II.
Now, the great question is Will
1t or will it not? Will luck break
even and let hard work and honest
EFFORT get a 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 a fair show, the yellow
Jackets have a medium chance of
scoring, but, score or no score, the
team will put up a never-even-
think -of-die fight, and Georgia has
been stung before, and may be
