English Claim They
Ate Turkey First
Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian

Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
LONDON, Nov. 27.-The question
Of whether the European custom of
eating turkey at Christmas is older
than the American custom of eating
turkey at Thanksgiving time, is raised
in a two-column article in The Times
to-day.
1t says that if England would make
good their claim that the custom of
eating turkey at Christmas is the old
er they must prove it existed between
1880 when the turkey first came to
Europe, and 1920, when the colonies
in America first ate the fowl and
gave thanks.

GRANT FIELD, Nov. 27.-By
score Of "a to Tech Yellow Jackets
defeated Clemson here this afternoon
in thrilling gridiron struggle.
The features of the game were the
end runs of Fielder, who time and
again got away for big gains; the line
plunging of Patten and Johnson; the
timely interference given the man
with the ball by home lads; the sure
and hard tackling of the entire Sec
ondary defense of Tech, and the all
around work of the Yellow Jacket
ends.
Captain Homer Cook. playing his
last game for the Yellow Jackets, ran
his plays in beautiful style. While
he didn't carry the ball very much, he
formed perfect interference for the
runner and TO him goes the most
credit for his teams great romping
victory.
Clemson was outplayed at new"
football and, although much heavier
than the Jackets, ran a poor second
at straight football.
