vATCH McWhoster! The war
wv cry has been sounded on
the Tech campus and il
has been echoed by every man who
pins his faith on the Yellow Jack
cts in Saturdays titanic struggle
From Coach Heisman to the low
hest freshman, it has been echoed
and re-echoed.
Beware, McWhorter'
The grim challenge has been
shouted in Athens until the ivy clad
walls of the ancient university
shake with its force. On the ire
mendous driving power in this one
mans body. the nope of all the
hosts OF the Red and Black is
pinned. And they are sure they
do not place their faith unWisely
Twice they have seen their colors
Haunted above their most bitter
rivals in the past two years. They
have turned homeward from Ponce
DeLeon park with hearts being sat
lutte to the proves of an individual
player. Each time their praises
rang for McWhorter.
And in this third year whatever
the result the burden of Georgia
will rest on his broad back,
Tech believes it can win-if 1t
were not for McWhorter
Georgia believes it might lose-if
It were not for McWhorter,
No football player who has
chewed a nose guard since the
game was introduced in Dixie ever
faced more responsibility in sin
gle combat. If Tech wins, it will be
because they have solved his dy-
manic attack. If Georgia loses 1t
will be due to a too great regard
for one mans ability.
All Lay For McWhorter.
McWhorter has been working an

In no game has he entered when
the opposing defense was told to
lay for him and crush him.

the Red and Black met the Purple,
he. TOO. had men whose sole pur-

Despite this. he scored two touch

with the Tigers from Tennessee.
And Heisman overlook, no bets.
