Morris Brown-AIlen University Tilt Gives
Atlanta Football Curtain-Raiser Sept. II;
Baseball Revival Experiment To Continue

THE FOOTBALL FANS of the Gate City did not get
chance to game until the second in October
last and there concerted protest that so
and vigorous easily have mistaken it the
ing and crashing of teeth by burning subjects in Dantes
Inferno.
This column roundly those responsible the
fact that city boasng three major colleges should
afford fans single until fourth of the had
elapsed No immediate reaction heard from athletic
directors head coaches But evidently they mind
full of the desires of the paying public The 194 schedules
disclose that much.
Morris Brown gives the fans their first grid morsel
amid baseball weather praying the lid against Allen Uni
versity Saturday September 27 in Atlanta Folk will natur
ally conclude hastily that this is breather for the Purple
Wolverines.
But lest you forget Allen the South Atlantic grid
honors last year. trimming Paine 800 Morris College of
Sumter s. Co. 21-6 Georgia State 2O6 Fort Valley 1870 and
CIafn 216; tying Bethune Goodman Go and Livingstone
and losing only Johnson c. Smith OILS and to Norris
Brown $40. -
When you consider that Smiths Golden Bulls eight
and lost only one-a so upset to bue1eo-and MOTIFS
Allen University represents a highly respectable opening
game rival for the Purple Wolverines.
No team--no matter how great it ultimately shapes
umay be expected to attain its maximum cohesion in the
very first of the Allen began football prac
ce fully weeks ahead of Morris Brown and since, con-
ceivaby the Wolverines can't be at their peak In so soI

Allen has an experienced ball club this time and Coach

AS if Allen did not already have good chance against
Morris Brown this year, for the first time in nearly two
decades the rule makers along and effected change
in the game which increases the Aenites chances about
5000 Reference is to the free communication between and
substitution of players into the game thus permitting
coach with just limited material of varsity cabre to
tnuay rest his best and hurry them right back
into the game.
In the past the coach could only substitute a player
single time in every quarter making maximum of four
substtutons in the entire not counting the starting
of player substitution.
Now however is possible though not likely that the
coach could substitute the player many 20 times
in game.
After Morris Brown and Allen pry the lid subsequent
action for Gate City grid fans will be continuous week
end.
Morehouse is billed against Xavier in Atlanta October
and Clark booked against Lane the date but the
conflict probably will be adjusted Coach Frank l. Forbes
of Morehose told the column, with the Maroon Tigers
gaging the Gold Rush at New Orleans.
