Guyon and Strupper, Coach Alex
ander shivers as he looks forward
to Techs schedule.
Nevertheless, every varsity foot
ball team has TO- lose its stars
from year to year.
Hilltoppers Gone.
IF Jackie Maloney were going
to take the 1922 forwards
down to Atlanta in October,
with Jack Flavin booting the ball
behind them, we might agree
that Tech has grounds for its
fear of defeat by the Hilltoppers.
But the Hilltoppers have lost al
most every first string forward
and Flavin will be an assistant
coach this season.
Georgetown had a powerful line
last fall from tackle to tackle.
In the Lafayette game the Hill
toppers looked their best, most Of
them playing their final game
for Georgetown, and intent on
making a good job of it.
This season the Blue and Gray
coaches will have to whip into
shape a new line from tackle to
tackle. Indeed, Paul Florence may
be found at tackle this year
though he has been a brilliant end
ever since first donning a George
town jersey.
Georgetown has yet to win from
Georgia Tech. There is no telling
at this early date how strong
either team may be, but right now
the Georgians are worrying be
cause they have no Red Barron
to oppose the lads from the Hill
top on October 20.

There were any number Of In
stances where players IN Glasses A..
B, and C, had the qualification
round been limited TO but eighteen,
could now be counted as good a.
out of the event. Take the cases
Of Frank Dyer and Milford Shipley,
for instance.
Dyer and SIMPLIFY both rank in
the first sixteen Of the National
CAPITALS municipal players. Both
are strokes better than the 81 and
90 they turned in for their first
round. The same holds true ut
quite q number in both Glasses
with another eighteen to 50.
both Dyer and Shipley are still
very much IN the running. a
couple OF good rounds next week
and they will be pressing many
who perhaps Will top them IN the
first round. Then there u the
chance that those who travelled 90
top speed yesterday may b OH
their game IN the next eighteen.

mentioned the fact that Sisler had
won the prize last year and that
he had thought 1t would be q good
notion to ask Sisier who he thought
was the most valuable player this
year.

started had just one thing on my

than did last year and lead both

Georgetown has promised little
or nothing for the coming foot
BAN season. It is probable that
the Hilltoppers will not be AZ
strong as they were a year ago,
but Jackie Maloney's squad win
have to be seen in action before
anyone will know.
So far as Techs worries are
concerned the Georgians should
take heart in the knowledge that
the Blue and Gray Hilltoppers
must battle the Quantico Marines
and the Princeton Tigers before
making the long journey to At
lanta. Oglethorpe and v. N. l.,
the first two opponents Of the
Tornado, hardly compare in
strength with the Marines and
Princeton.
Now for the reason behinn
Techs worries. For the first
time since 1917 Tech fears its
offense may be too weak. With
out fast-moving, powerful backs,
the Georgia shift loses all its
force and can easily be brushed
aside.

Flowers il Star.

THEN for a couple of years it
was little Buck Flowers who
starred for Tech. Flowers,
looking hardly more than a boy,
did mans work behind the line
for the Yellow Jackets, punting
and running and passing with the
best backs to be found in the
country.
Judy Harlan, the big back with
the stiff knee action, was Techs
chief hero in 1921. As a STRAIGHT
llne-buckcr, Harlan ranked with
Ted Coy, the old Yale wizard
He was better defensive plaver

Red Barron Gone.
.vTE saw Red Barron at his
w best against the Middies
w last fall, but Red Barron
is gone, and the coaches in At
lanta, try as they may, cannot see
his successor in the squad that is
soon due to report.
Without a Red Barron to do
about everything behind that big
line, Tech is going to have trouble
in advancing the ball, or thinks
it is, which amounts to about the
same thing.
It is a new experience for
Georgia Tech to face a season
without at least one brilIian,
halfback. 1t was Everett Strupper
back in 1917, who made football
history wherever he played, North
or South. Strupper, when all il
considered, made Johnny Heis-
mans reputation. He certainly
was responsible for sending Reis.

any Struppers, Heisman proved

The Ungainly FIamingo.

The 1lamingO, so beautiful in color
ing and graceful in flight, is not espe-
cially beautiful in build. In shape it
is midway between goose and a
stork, ranging, when full-groWn be-
tween 5 and GK feet in height Its
bumped body is supported on legs
amazingly long and thin, while its
slender neck curves upwards like a
big letter S, and ends in small head
with great fiat, doWn-curving beak.
The lower part of this beak forms a
deep, broad box, into which the upper
part fits like a cover When the bird
is feeding on shellfish or water plal,s
in the shadows and flats the neck Is
twisted like cOrkscrew until the
head is upside down; then the top of
the bcak is pushed along through the
mud like a scoop shovel, gathering in
the food mOrsels. During the nesting
period the female builds a curious
mound Of mud like a tiny volcano in
the crater of which single egg is
laid On this the mother is said to
sit with legs drawn up like a gro
tesqUe statue on pedestal.

INSOMNIA CAN BE BANISHED
Trouble Is, With Too Many of Us,
That the Prescription" Is
Hard to Take.

There is a cure for insomnia, but it
is likely to be something aWful-a ten
mile walk in the country or saving
wood for four hours. One has to give
up all other activities, it seems, when
one "rassleS it out" with insomnia.
Nobody has time for saving wood
for four hours except deposed Euro
pean monarchs-favored ones of earth
whom even Il revolution gives leisure
Theodore Roosevelt, who enjoyed so
amply all that the world had to give,
cut down trees for purposes of bodily
invigoration but then he had the trees
to cut down; so also, Gladstone.
Hard, physical labor these great
ones considered necessary for their
well-being; and it is thoroughly estab-
lished that it is the best lure of sleep,
'halmy sleep, tired natures sweet re-
storer" The point in that quotation
is that one has to be tired not tired
in the cares that infest the day, but
tired in the legs, arms and dorsal
muscles. One can chase away insom-
MIA if one gives his undivided atten-
ton to it. That's the difliculty.--St.
