CUNNINGHAM
PLAYERS SUFFER
FROM INJURIES

4 THENS. GA. oct. l5.--lt was
~ necessary to call the roll at
practice Yesterday afternoon
to see how many Red and Black play
ers are really on the hospital list.
1t was found that no less than six
cripples can be accounted for. Three
from the game Saturday and three
who were put out Of commission in
the scrimmages Of last week.
Bill Carey the lightning back, who
was filling to perfection the hole left
open by the exit Of Bowen. was on the
sidelines with his shoulder i'm a plas-
ter cast and his arm in a sling. II
will be several weeks before he gets
in uniform again. Crump is still
in the hospital, but win probably get
into Saturdays game against Ala
bama. Dorsey, Paddock, Conyers
and Mcconnell were still too stiff TO
timber up very strenuously, but barr
ing further accidents, will round into
shape again in few days.
THOMPSON will take up the work
left off by Carey and Crump

The remainder of the week viii be
used in getting ready for the hard
game against Alabama in Birmins
ham Saturday The defeat of Glenn
son by such n large score by the Tus-
caloosans has caused an uneasines5
that will be hard to overcome. TIL"
Red and Black coaches realize that
wonderful Improvement must be
shown over Saturdays playing or
there is no hope for the AJheuians
against the fast eleven Of Coach
Graves
HARDLY a sembIance Of interfer-
1 enCe has been developed yet.
This was shown in the Dahlonega
game. as nearly every long gain was
made by individual star work. The
line was anything but impenetrable
at times and more than once did the
Aggies break through and throw the
great McWhorter for a loss. The
most wonderful improvement was
noticed at center in the swapping o.
Delaperriere. His passing all season
has been indeed bad. He made but
one or two noticeahly poor passes to
the backs and by the game Saturday
should be going great He is one Of
the earnest men on the Georgia team
and in every game has been elected
for what the referee thought was I'M
due roughing He is due to get this
out Of his system when the real bat
ties come however, and there is lit
tie proba bility of him losing his place
at the pivot position TO any of his
opponents.
