VANDERBILT QUARTERBACK
SITUATION TED
George Looms Up AS Formidable Opponent of Zach Curn
Other Promising Recruits Out for Same Position

Nashville, September 1S.-With the ap-
pearance on Dudley field of "Bo" George,
who as a member of the Morgan school
eleven last fall was the unanimous pick
of the critics for all-prep quarterback in
this section of the state, the scrap for
the quarterback position ON the Commo-
dores this year becomes more compli-
Gated.
George cannot be overlooked as a Sc
rious contender, his work with Morgan
stamping him as one of the best prep
school quarterbacks turned out in sew
eral years. Horde Boensch. of last year S
squad, is thought to have the inside track
on the race at the present writing be-
cause of his exceptional speed, dash and
ability to punt, while Woodring and Duck
Henry are also possible candidates. Henry
was used yesterday in running a dozen
or more of the line candidates through
practice and had experience at this posi-
uion while a member of the reserves in
1909 However, his superior weight may
mean that he Will be used elsewhere this
year.
George weighs in the neighborhood of
160 pounds ana is fearless and aggres-
sive player, also having a good head for
running a team. The success of the
to the manner in which he handled il
and his first appearance in uniform yes
terday was the cause of satisfaction in
all quarters.
Zach Curlin, quarterback in 1912, has
not yet reported lacking the necessary
Carnegie units but expects to make up
this deficiency soon and should be out
again to fight for the quarterback berth
and lend aid with his accurate toe.
Several Promising Candidates
The unusual GOODNESS of the weather
for this time of the year is appreciated
by the candidates and they are making
the best of their opportunities to get into
trim in short order. The soreness is al
ready working from their joints and they
will soon be in good shape for the first
scrmmage, which may come off some
time next week
In addition to George, there We're sew

PROUGH CALLED
HOME TO ATTEND
BEDSIDE OF CHILD

Bill Prough, the premier twirler of the
Southern league, is this morning speeding
over the prairies of the west to his home
in Keokuk, Ia, to attend the bedside OF
his child, who is seriously ill. He left
last night after receiving a telegram from
his wife informing him Of the serious ILL
ness of tine child and urging him to re-
turn home.
The sudden illness of his child is very
much regretted by his team mates and
his many loyal friends in this city, and it
is their earnest hope that the child VIII
speedily recover. and that Prough viii be
able to accompany the Barons on their
transforming trip to Cuba. At present he
does not know whether he will be able to
make the trip to the Pearl of the An-
TILES and all depends upon the condition
of his child.

CRACKERS GET
NEW TW|R[ER

Atlanta, September S.-The fact that the
Crackers will have a star hurler next
spring was overlooked in the interest re-
garding just which of the Crackers would
be drafted. Bisland was the man Sc
lected.
Elmer Lawrence, the star twirler of the
Knoxville club, of the Appalachian
league, therefore is a Cracker, as he was
not subject to draft from Knoxville, that
club having sold him earlier in the season
to the Crackers.
This insures the Crackers of star
right-hander to work with Elliott Dent
and gives the Crackers two pitching cer-
tainties next spring.

stress is sure to be laid on this de-
partment.
Buddy in Shape
Little Buddy Morgan, McGugin's puny
center. is apparently in as good shape
as when the season closed last year.
He is all muscle and should put up
the greatest game of his career this
year. With his experience of the past
three years, he should rank at the end
of this campaign as the greatest CEN
ter ever turned out in the south.
Annie Skies has yet to report, but
Is being expected daily Annie, ac-
cording to Allen Brown, Is in fine shape
and weighs a good deal more than last
sea son. He should strip well over 165
and may weigh around 40.
Another likely candidate who will be
out today is Ernest Perry former
Wallace and Duncan player, who was
an excellent quarterback in prep
school. He is brother of Alex Perry,
former all-southern center at Wander
bilt, and should rank right along with
his big brother before he finishes
school.
