member some Atlanta College has
placed one or more men on eN cry
body's American. This season
should be no exception because de-
spite mediocre teams in this sector
as well as in all sections, there are
some gridders who stand head and
shoulders above the pack:
Clark is no sop this season, and
from this corner it looks like the
Panthers are heading for the Sou
thern Grid title and a claim for
National honors. The men of Hog
NAV" Robinson impressed us no end
in licking Morehouse last Saturday
on Harper's Field in a rough and
tumble meeting. The men in Black
and Red were superior IN every de-
partmet of play and should win the
next outing with Florida's former
poisonous Rattlesnake, now play
ing with that poison fang.
Only setback the Panthers may
suffer and they may as well look
for hot day, is when they grapple
likely to happen. Coach Robinson
is awaiting these Two games AMI
ously so that he an again come
back to life and breathe easier.
We began this ..oulbling by tell
ing you readers and warning the
All-American grid team guessers

Day. That is always heated, knock

will end with the same warning.
Probably the best two backs seen
in these parts this season, at least
by the writer, have been David T.
Harper, triple-threat star Of the
Clark eleven, and his running mate,
Hatcher, lad, not SO big, but the
possessor of a pair of strong legs,
who plows into the strongest line,
ripping off yardage with the great
est of ease. He is not the player
Harper is, but he holds his own and
runs Harper a darn close second.
Harper can run with the best in
the nation, we believe, can pass.
kick and is heady as well. He was
the man who tossed that perfect
pass into waiting arms of the stel-
lar end, Barbee, and it was Barbee
who raced over the double stripe to
score the winning marker for the
Black and Red of Clark over More
house.
You all-American pickerS had bet
ter see Clark or write and ask some
body before you endanger your lives
by picking teams leaving a Clark
luninary from the first team line
up.
You will be smart If you follow
these instructions, and dumb if you
don't. This may be fools advice,

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Nulrilionist for the State beard Of Health
GOOD MEALS IN RECORD
TINE

Women who hold full-time jobs
and run their homes after working
hours find that meals are quite a
problem these days. Common
plants are that quick cooking
meats are expensive both by points
and money and one wastes so much
time after work waiting in line at
the grocery store. Both of these
are true to a certain extent, but
good planning will help overcome
both.
Women who have taken the time
to sit down and plan out the
weeks market order, report that
they save time and energy. BY
planning to cook less popular cuts
of meat in spare time they can
save money and points as we'll. If
there is adequate storage space.
one trip to the grocery will last a
week. BY this overall planning
woman can be sure her family is
getting the food it needs for good
health.
The wise homemaker will use
some of her weekend to prepare
food for the coming week. Soups.
