CHICAGO PLAYS IN
GREAT FASHION To
DEFEAT GEORGIA
Randall, Georgia Star, Forced
From Game With Injuries.
Score Was 200
BY Associated Press

Chicago, October 7.-Displaying
polished team work and relying al
most entirely on straight football,
rolled up a 30 to 0 score on Georgia
day.
A crowd of $4,000 witnessed the
International game despite overhung
skies. which threatened another
downpour. The game was played on
a slippery, rain-soaked field. which
made forward passing difficult.
Halfback Johnny Thomas Of
Jamestown, N. D., whose playing en-
abled Chicago to triumph over Prince
ton last year, was the most ssensa-
tional performer of the day, although
Jimmy Pyott a Chicago youth. who
plays the other half, was close
second. Together with Fullback
zorn they carried the ball nine out
of ten times and ripped big holes in
the Georgia defense on almost every
attempt.
Thomas scores Twice
Thomas counted both touchdowns,
after carrying the ball down the
field on repeated smashes at the right
side of the Georgia line. while Pyott
scored twice with short drop kicks.
Georgia fought a plucky fight,
stopping Chicago for downs three
times inside of the 5-yard line. RAN
dali, Georgia's star left half, twice
ran for slight gains after tacklers
had disabled one knee and was taken
from the game in the second quarter.
This accident broke up the Georgia
overhead attack, as Randall was the
Crackers chief dispatcher.
Only four passes were attempted
during the game, one of which was
successful. Pyott intercepted both
of the Georgians' passes and re-
turned one of them for 20 yards. Chi
cago used short passes over the line,
one of which, Caruso to Pyott netted
u yards in the last quarter and set
the stage for the last touchdown.
Smashed the Line
Stages favorite play last year,
line drive in which the whole back
field drives through to clear the way
for the runners, was used time after
time with great success, the right
side of the Georgia line crumpling
tefore drives by Thomas and Zorn.
Coach Stage made frequent substi-
tutions, but in spite of the fact that
lie uScu II HuflbtE VI SSNCHa So iAo
men the Mareons scored twenty first
downs to Georgia's one, clearly re-
vealing the ground gaining strength

to make first down only in the first
