Crump Were Heroes of the
Great Struggle.

Coach Georoia Team)


w re are happy in the victory over
w our dearest rivals from the
Georgia School of Technolo-
~. especially pleasing Is the fact
thst notwithstanding the heated RI
vary, the game was not marred by
tne disqualification Of any PLAYER. !
victory achieved as the result OF n
nuke never leaves the pleasant taste
does.
think there can be no question
that the Red and Black was the sum-
rlor team. We had it on" Tech both
on offense and defense. despite the
TACT that we have had to evolve a new
system Of defense within the past
week, This newe defense, however,
mad q great deal to do with our vic
tory.
Tech expected Mcwhorter on end
runs while as matter of fact we
game, using our other backs in a
rushing game through the line and
or tackle that swept the Tech men
off their feet.
am disappointed that Crump was
not able to register touchdown aft
er his magnificent run for 80 yards g.
At this point there arose a peculiar
incident, and l can not understand the
ruling Of the officials. OF course. the
distance penalties neutralize each
other, but l can see no reason why a
man guilty of smuggling should not be
disqualified.
Penalties Were Very Severe.
The game was filed with peculiar
happenings; in fact. / have never
witnessed a game which left me with
such a peculiar feeling. The Georgia
attack generally grows stronger as
the game progresses, yet in the game
Yesterday it seemed unable to get
started. No matter how hard the
boys worked, a 15-yard penalty would
set aside their efforts. 1t may have
been because of Techs defense, which
undoubtedly was stronger than last
year, but l hardly think that was the
sole reason.
To our foes | extend my heartiest
congratulations for their splendid
game. Tech showed a well-coached
team of men, who would not quit
even when it appeared they were
| fighting a losing battle.
The stars of the game would be
hard to name. I saw no flaws in this
work of any of my men. The line
men were experimenting with new
defense for the first time in an actual
anne, The manner in which they
performed showed how earnest mas
been their work.
Malone is the greatest lneman in
the South. He is in every play, and
never ceases his efforts to bore into
the storm center, Henderson Is a
great football general. He marshaled
| his line to meet every attack started
by the Tech backs Quick to analyze
every play, his headwork was of in
lcalculable value and did much to bring
| victory to Georgia.
Captain McWhorter injured his
arm early in the game, and thea.
too, he was esed more as a line
bucker than in his favorite end runs
Crump and Paddock Starred.
To Crump and Paddock most o!
the credit for the victory must go
| Paddock easily proved himself the
premier quarterback of the South.
Crump put up the best game Of any
man on the Georgia squad.
The ends, Conklin and Smith, broke
up the best end running attacks
have ever seen on a Southern grid
| iron. DeLaperriere played great
game on defense, as we'll as making
many difficult passes at all angles
as was required by the Georgia at
| tack.
| To the members OF my team I give
all the credit. They, are a great
bunch of fighters, each man star
and led by the greatest star and cap
tain that ever graced a Southern foot
| ball team. Bob McWhorter.
