Loss Of Henderson Beat Georgia
Opinion of Red and Black Fans
By Bud Fisher

completion of the play would have
given them a touchdown and as many
times did he grab those thrown by his
own teammates for good gains, once
for the lone score that the Red and
Black registered. Should Carey inn
prove sufficiently to get into the Tech
and Auburn games, giving Logan a
chance to go to end as a running
mate to Conklin, dopesters of the Red
and Black see combination in the
lineup, with Henderson back a;
tackle. that will be well nigh i'm
pregnable. especially with Georgia
playing anything like the brand OF
ball as was put UP Saturday.
IT HE work OF Malone in the line has
4 been the noticeable feature OF
the last two games. Malone, though
one of the fiercest players in the
South, is clean in his fight, and the
Georgia fans can not realize why he
was put out of the game SATURDAY,
Since the absence of Henderson he is
the mainstay of the Georgia line, and
If he continues to put up the great
game he has been playing this fall

ern honors.
M 'WHORTER came out of the fray
i'A Saturday in better shape than
when he emerged from the Alabama
game, and will be able to continue his
great playing against North Carolina
this week Bob is more popular al
Georgia than ever this year, and is
putting to rout all comment that
captains never play up to form.
The McWhorter family in Georgia
used to be famous by the prominence
of Judge McWhorter in politics and
the affairs OF the State, but now
whenever the illustrious name is men
toned It IS usually connected with
football. and Bob Is the topic of con-
versatton.

There was some excuse for VOL

THE nearest approach we ever had

case of Jim Jeffries. After hopping

MATTY ADVISES
ALL YOUNGSTERS
To PLAY CLEAN
Famous Giant Pitcher Tells Boys
About Use of Arms, Legs
and Brains.
SSX T OUhear about pitchers con-
" troll That's about the aame

& i w iiCdA dpOuld pIlIHVI COl-
troll That's about the same
thing as guiding a bike right;
1t means getting where you want to
TO, or adding disasters by controlling
yourself. You can do that only by
thinking, and when you think, think
straight. Some fellows think hard,
but crooked. They don't often win
and If they do win, they lose your
good will and their own self-re-
spect."
SO says Christy Mathewson, the
Giants famous twirler. Mathewson
says he Is afraid that too often the
average boy-and the average man
too-plays the game just to win" and
declares that "the big thing Is not 10
win; the mk thing is to do your best,
and doing your, best means getting
into the game with your whole heart
No matter what the game is, play it
for all there is in YOU and all there Is
in the game"
The great pitcher advises the boy
first to know himself-to know his
physical and mental self-to know
his own weak points and strengthen
them, and his strong points and de-
velop them to the full This. he says
will take practice, practice, then
moro practice, for In athletics espe-
cially practice makes perfect.
81 don't mean practice only with
your arms and legs" says Matty. 81
mean practice with your brains. too
Know how to throw, to catch, to bat,
to run bases, to punt. to kick goals
anything required by the game-but
know also how to think straight
about the contest. When you play
your game with your arms and legs
and brains, too. you get out OF II the
most fun and the most benefit. There
are disasters in sport, but boys who
use their brains, as well as their arms
and legs, usually escape them"
Mathewson tells the boy that
whether he wins or loses in his game
he should try always to win every
body's respect, so that people will
say: He's a fine fellow--he's
square" He advises the boy to play
the game eyerywhere-in school, on
the diamond, on the gridlron, in the
gym, on the track"

n THENS, GA, Oct 2S.-The
~ Georgia football team returned
from Atlanta covered with
glory, and were received with open
arms by all Athens, despite the de-
feat at the hands Of Virginia Satur-
day. Not even the most optimistic
fan anticipated such a close score,
and those who did not journey to
Poncey from the Classic City have
taken on renewed hopes for the inn
portant games that are to follow
when told of the wonderful fight the
Red and Black team put up against
almost overwhelming odds.
1t is the conviction of every Geor-
gian who saw the game that the
Athenians would have returned the
winners had not Henderson been in
jured so early in tho fray. This
necessitated the switching of Malone
to tackle, when he has been playing
guard all season, and the sending of
Conyers to the latter's place, when
he had been out of practice for two
weeks with severe charley horse.

With two such experts on the job
