Thirteen RedandBIack Men Now Constitute Squad Athens
COACH CUNNINGHAM HAS PICKED GEORGIA TEAM

a sub Of last year. who has played
star ball around his homo town.
IT HOMSON gets the utility place
so far, and can hold down either
an outfield or lnfield job. He seems
to have the making OF a good play
1T. is willing. but is a bit over
anxious. Morris and Corley are
the two slab artists registered as
ready for duty, and on their right
arms depends the success OF ths
Georgia team this spring. They
are both new to Georgia fans, and
the fact that its pitchers have been
among the best in the South for
the past few years is causing
Georgia supporters to attach
great big question mark to the box
department this season, when not
a single vet is back to bear the
brunt Of the battle.
Both Morris and Corley have
shown good form in practice. but
both lack experience.
IT HIS completes the list of first
string men, but Coach Cunning
ham has let II be known that any
man is liable TO be promoted to the
varsity or relegated to the scrubs
the very minute somebody else
shows that he can play the position
better.

Attell Stops Kirke

Regain Lost Title

NEW YORK, March 20.-Flushed
with his knockout victory in the third
round last night in his bout with Ollie
Kirk, of st. Louis. Abe Attell. former
lightweight champion, set out to-day
to secure matches with top notchers in
the featherweight class in a further at
tempt to show that he was a real
comeback

and demonstrated that I still have the

pionship that l lost to him more than
a year ago"
A terrible left hook to Kinks chin
sent the Westerner staggering to the
ropes, and a right to the jaw an in
slant later floored him for nine Sec
onds. Kirk regained his feet in time
to suffer further punishment, but Ref
cree Sammy Kelly stepped in and stop
ped the bout.
Kirk had all the better Of it for two
rounds. He jabbed Atteu almost at
will with his left, and hooked his right
to the head repeatedly There was a
sudden shift when the third round
started, however, Attel stepping in
quickly with the deciding blows.

who died in 1926 aged 70, was the grand
father of our fellow citizens Alfred.

Robert, who died in 1929 aged 81, was
the father of Capt. Robert Patterson
and Mr.. George Patterson now residing

father of David Patterson now residing

and of Mr.. Jonathan White who resides
