came frankly personal in the last
half.
North Carolina started the game
running like race horses and tack
ling like pile-drivers. The Tai
Heels, kept it up throughout the
game. hitting Georgia like the un.
defeated, united Bulldogs have
never been hit. before.
The result was a Sugar Bowl
game that will long be remember
ed and the outcome was decided
by Georgia's payoff scoring punch
from far out. Two plays, a loudly
disputed 71-yard double lateral
after an interrogation, and a. g.
yard Trippi touchdown pass, beat
North Carolina. Georgia added a
third tally in the fourth quarter but
that was an anti-climax.
North Carolina twice took the
lead, on a second period sustained
drive of 30 yards for a touchdown,
and on a 10-yard field goal in the
third period by Bob Cox, who was
a Stormy character all afternoon.
Inc four officials never had a
tougher day. They may have call
ed a few of them wrong and there
we're some they didn't catch at all
in the fourth period, when the game
got rugged. r
North Carolina had the better OF
it in the first period, when the
Tar Heels twice penetrated Georgia
territory. They got q real break
midway of the second period when
guard Bob Mitten Intercepted Trip
pi's pass on the Georgia 80. Just
ice swept to the 20 and Walt Pupa's
pass to Powell was allowed on the
IA because Of interference. Pupa
ramrodded to the four and then
crashed through for a touchdown.
Cox kicked goal. .
Georgia couldn't tie until well
into the third period when Trippi
started a play quicker than any OF
the $4,000 pairs of eyes could fol-
low. He intercepted a Pupa pass
on his Is, quickly lateralled to end
Joe Tereshinski and Tereshinski
got the ball somehow to fullback
Dick McPhee.
McPhee steamed to the Carolina
Il ward line before Joe Romano
slagged him from behind. North
Carolina yelled to the skies that
Tereshinski passed to McPhee for
ward instead of laterally.
But the run stuck, and Rabbit
Smith scored from the vineyard
line after plunging 10 on three
plays. George J~ernigan's kick tied
the score.
North Carolina came back in
spired and drove IS yards with
Justice, Pupa and Jim Camp run
ming like wild men. But the drive
petered out and Cox came in to
kick his field goal and put the Tar
Heels ahead, 10 to Z.
Then Georgia struck again with
the %suddenness of a thunderclap.
Fading back to his "a, Trippi got
off a long one to end Dan Edwards.
Edwards took it on the North Caro-,
lima 40 and outmaneuvered the
frantically clutching Justice to go
all the way.
Jernigan missed the point but
North Carolina was pretty well
tagged after playing an inspired
game. Georgia found gaping holes

manner in which he guided the emo

Prokof1eff's Suite" provided the
most spectacular opportunities. 1t
is savage and barbaric, with wild
clashing Of gorgeous sound. But
through all the rich employment OF
orchestral tone, there runs the par
ticular esprit that is peculiar to
Prokofef and which gives special
turn and a special flavor to every
thing he sets down in music. He
has met the challenge of his subject
in bold fashion, marking his points
with lavish splashes of color, with
violent rhythms and with exuberant
release Of feeling. He is too
able a craftsman not to value con-
trast, as shown in the beautiful
fading away of riotuous sound in
the conclusion Of "The Alteration
of Veles and Ala" and the soft tint
ing of Might" This early work OF
Prokofieff's is exciting music and
one wonders at Diaghilevs rejection
of it as proper ballet setting.
A remarkable thing about the
Miaskovsky Symphony" which
only a few years ago gained the
Stain Prize for the composer, is its
kinship to Tschaikowsky. Although
the Soviet composers idiom Is con-
temporary. there is an underlying
contemplativeness, dreamy revery,
at times, that is far from the pres
ent trend In the 'one movement
work, he has been able to cohere
many moods with logic. The re-
fective beginning is offset by deci-
sive rhythms and even syncopation,
to be followed again by a return to
| lyricism. In the orchestral voicing
there is always softness, however,

Truck Operator Convicted
As Bow Causes Accident

A 27-year-old man was convicted
Of two traffic charges involving his
truck, even though he wasn't driv-
ing at the time.
Law books had to be brought into
Municipal Court to show Robert
Barksdale, colored, Of the first block
of I street NV, that he could be
charged with backing q vehicle in
an unsafe manner although he was
not behind the wheel. The hitch,
as explained In the other charge,
was that he permitted an unlicensed
operator to drive, and was respon-
sible for the consequences.
The unlicensed driver in this case
was a 12-year-old boy who told
Judge Walter J. Casey that Barks-
dale was teaching him to drive when
the vehicle, a pickup truck, went
Unexpectedly into reverse, glanced
off a parked car, cut across a street,
through a fence and vacant lot and
smashed into the kitchen Of home
in the 1900 block of Eighth street
NV.
Denying he had been teaching the
boy, Barksdale said he had been at
the rear of the truck when it started
and had jumped into the front seat
to try to stop the vehicle.

even in climatic measures that gives
a mellow atmosphere to the work
especially in contrast to that Of
Prokofieff. That Miaskowsky also
has a feeling for the drama was
illustrated in the pianissimo ending,
where the tones seem to vanish as
though their work was done.
Mr.. Brailowsky was given an
ovation at the conclusion Of his
performance of the Tschaikowsky
concerto in which Mr.. Ormandy
supplied an unusually fine accom-
paniment. His delivery was virile
and technically Of superlative Or
der, although less pronounced in
nuances and subtleties. There were
shouts of acclaim from the audience
which had voiced its enthusiasm
vigorously throughout the program.
1t was one of those choice evenings
when the artists, Mr.. Ormandy. Mr.

Home Run Baker Cites Lack
Of Inside Baseball in Minors

He intimated the major league
clubs should send full-time and ex-
perienced managers to their teams
to teach the finer points of base
ball.
There's more to playing baseball
than just hitting and running" he
said.
Baker said his observations were
made from watching play in class
D Eastern Shore League and other
minor loops.
Baker, who led the American
League in home run hitting in 1911
1912 and 1918 while with the Phila-
delphia Athletics, also took a crack
at night baseball. He claimed the
ability OF players particularly
pitchers. who he said had a special
advantage over batsmen at night
could not be judged under the
lights.
During his talk he recalled the
days when as third-baseman for
the Athletics he was a member of
Connie Mack's million dollar in
field" He. said that while he and
Ty Cobb weren't good friends until
1917" and seldom spoke to each
other, he still admired Ty as one of
the greatest ball players.
Baker relinquished his connection
with baseball in 1924 after 16 years
by retiring to q farm at Trappe,
Md, after managing an Eastern
Shore League team. He broke into
organized baseball in 1908 with
Reading, going to the Athletics in
the same year.
He was sold to the New York
Yankees in 1916.
