Tar Heels are Favored To Beat
Georgia Eleven In Saturday Tilt

Chapel Hill, Sept. 29-(AP)-
Life is just one choo choo after
another for the University Of
Georgia football team.
The Bulldogs just did catch
the Chattanooga coal burning
version on last quarter sprint
to open their season last week.
This week they'll try to flag

Heel camp has a high regard
for the Bulldogs of Wally Butts.
The feeling here is that Geor-
gio is perhaps best qualified Of
any Of the nine remaining foes
on the schedule to upset Carl
Snavely's powerhouse.
The North Carolina coach,
made clear his views a few hours
after his club had humbled
Texas.
Looking ahead to this weeks
game at Athens, Ga, Snavely
voiced the opinion that Georgia

psychological spot we had
against Texas"
The Tar Heels were fired up
for the Longhorns. They still
smarted from the $40 lacing
they had absorbed in Texas a
year ago. A smashing $50 vic
tory over LSU the week before
made the Texans even stronger
favorites than they'd been in
preseason ratings.
But the keyed up Caroinians
smacked them with three touch
downs in the first quarter and
they never recovered.
This time the Tar Heels occupy
the favorite's spot and Georgia
will be drawing a bead on them.
AS Snavely said, it is difficult
to bring team up to an emotion
al peak week after week. There's
bound to be some letdown.
Georgia has no all-around star
to match the dynamic Justice,
who passed for two touchdowns,

well against Texas.

Father Learns
Farm Technique
From His Son

College Station, Raleigh
Thousands of farm boys are still
learning the business of farming
from their fathers, but on the
other hand, lots of fathers are
learning from their sons, acc
ording to Plese Corbett, Alaman
ce, County Negro farm agent for
the. State College Extension
Service.
AS proof of his statement, Cor
bett cites the example of Wal
ter c. Willis, a All Club mem
Der of the Unity Club, Mebane,
Route l. This young lad has
done an excellent job with his
corn project this year, the coun
ty agent said. He received six
pounds of hybrid seed corn free
last year from a local hybrid
seed grower.
Working with his father, Willis
planted his corn beside a field
of his fathers open pollinated
corn. Both fields received the
same amount of fertilizer per
acre and were cultivated alike.
The boys corn was planted 10
inches in the drill, his fathers
was planted "a inches in the
drill.
Although the corn has not been
harvested and final yields deter
mined, the hybrid corn has two
to three ears on practically all
stalks while the open pollinated
variety has only one ear per
stalk.
This demonstration has con
WINGED the boys father to the
extent that both of them will
plant hybrid corn next year,
Corbett said.

try in competitions, making good
on SO Of 181 thrown for 10 touch
downs and 1851 yards.
His arm broke open the Chat
tanooga game after three score
less periods Saturday. Johnny
set up the first score with pass
es and passed to Bob Walston
for the second.
However, with both teams well
equipped up front, there's al
ways the possibility that the line

as they did a year ago when
North Carolina ground out a
lack-luster 14-7 decision.

eand Indians Look k Flag Winner As Yankees And Boston Red Sox LOST
Aerial Battle
Seen Between
Deacs-Indians

Richmond, Va, Sept. 29-(AP)
An aerial battle appears in the
offing Saturday afternoon when
William and Mary's Indians and
Wake Forests Deacons tangle
at Williamsburg, Va.
Being groomed for passing as
signments in this important
Southern Conference clash are
Tom Fetzer, Wake Forests bril-
liant triple-threat star and little
Tommy Korczowski, William and
Mary's speedster.
In two games played so far,
Fetzer threw 20 passes and COM
pleted 10 for 1T yards. Korcz-
owski threw two touchdown
pitches last week as William and
Mary opened its season with a
14-6 triumph over Davidson.
Both coaches, Wake Forests
Peahead Walker and William
and Mary's RUDE McCray, had
their worries, though.
Walkers scouts looked the In
dams over Saturday and saw
the Tribe run only five basic
plays. To top that off, the Dea-
cons had to work yesterday in
drilling rain.
McCray announced today he
was moving MacKiewicz from
fullback to blocking back in an
effort to plug the hole left by
the injury of Frank O'Pella. The
Indian chieftain also shifted
Ralph Floyd, guard, to center,
where two substitutes will be
out with injuries.
Injuries, rain and mud COM
bined to cause most of the 16
coaches in the Southern Confer
ence to sing the blues today.
Dukes Blue Devils, preparing
for their test against Tennessee
had to drill indoors because of
rain and wet grounds. Coach
Wallace Wade emphasized Of
tense, something that was lack
ing at times last week as the
Blue Devils played to a scorless
tie with North Carolina State.
Ben Williams likely won't play
against the Vols.
Rain failed to stop North Ca
rolina's preparations for the Tar
Heels tilt Saturday afternoon at
Georgia. The Tar Heels found
the going rough though, but it
was hard tackling freshman
team-not the rain-tthat stop
ped them.
Ralph Beard, Virginia Techs
veteran fullback, reported to
practice on crutches. His place
in the lineup against Virginia at
Roanoke, Va, Saturday after
noon, likely will be taken by Rog-
er Neel.
Passing occupied Furman's
workout as the purple hurricane
stepped up the pace behind lock-
ed gates for Friday nights in
vasion Of South Carolina. George
Pruitt and Luther Barnett were
the main pitchers.

Boudreou's
Tribe Is Two
Games In Lead
BY RALPH RODEN
ASSOCIATED PRESS SPORTS
WRITER

The Indians may be a vanish
ing race but you couldn't tell it
to the baseball world today.
Led by Manager Lou Boudreau
the Cleveland war party appears
leadpipe cinch to clash with
another species, the Boston
Braves, for the 1913 World Series
wampum.
Boudreau's Tribe enjoys a com
manding two-game lead over the
runner-up Boston Red Sox and
New York Yankees in the Am
erican League pennant fight with
all Of the contenders having only
four games left to play.
The Indians gained this almost
insurmountable lead last night
by massacring the Chicago White
Sox. Ito, after the Red Sox and
Yanks were ambushed in the
afternoon, AZ, and So, respective
ly, by the Washington Senators
and Philadelphia Athletics.
The Indians can nail down their
first flag since 1920 by winning
three out Of their remaining four
games. Should they divide the
four games the Red Sox or
Yanks by winning all of their
four could only tie the Indians
for the pennant. The fact that
two of the runnerups' remaining
games are against each other
lessons the possibility of one of
them sweeping four games.
Lefty Gene Bearden turned in
one Of the best performances of
his career in banking the White
Sox. The rookie held the Chica-
goans to four scattered singles,
famed five and walked two in
hanging up his 18th victory a.
gainst seven defeats.
The Indians supported Bear i.
denis classy job with 10 hit
attack that included homers by
Dale Mitchell and Allie Clark.
Mitchell opened the game with
homer off Southpaw Bill Wight.
Rae Scarborough and Carl
Scheib were the boys who put
a crimp into the flag hopes of the
Red Sox and Yankees.
Scarborough chilled the Sox
on six hits in picking up his 14th
victory for the seventh place
Senators. The Senators hammer
ed start and loser Joe Dobson
for four runs in the second inn
ing and Scarborough coasted the
rest of the way.
Mickey Vernon doubled to
start the rally. A walk and
single by Mark Christman load
ed the bases. Jake Early ground
ed to Bill Goodman but the first
sacker's throw home was wild
and Vernon scored the first run.
Scarborough followed with a two
run single and after Gil Coan
flied out, Al Kozar singled in
Washington's final run. Kozar's
hit knocked out Dobson. Mickey
Harris came on and BANKED the
Mats the rest of the way but
Boston couldn't catch I'D.

/ These associations are well-man
aged business concerns. From the
standpoint of their financial condi
ton and overall business and coop
erative organization there is ample
justification for the conclusion that
they are well prepared to move ahead
in spite of whatever Universities may
be encountered in continued service
to their members.
A total of 231 associations had been
served by the bank from organiza-
ton to June 80, 194S. More than
1876, 400 farmers in Idaho, Montana,
Oregon and Washington, patrons of
these associations, have benefited
from the banks services. On June
80 there were 100 associations on the
bank rolls and these associations had
more than 81 400 members. A num-
Der of the associations also are serv-
ing non-member farmers.
Since the first loan was closed in
January, 1884, the bank has advanced
$141,454,333 to these cooperative as
sociations. It's losses on this huge
amount of credit has been only
6/100th of 1Go.
Indicative of the widespread serv-
ices offered by these farmers coop

modities include fresh and processed

Putting Up Slate
For LEGISLATURE

Having studied legislative candi

an exception, that neither party could
or would function in the best inter
ests of the people of Montana, the

candidates to contest for five of the
eight seats to be filled,
Nominated at the county conven-
ton, Tuesday, September IA were:
Richard Hill, John Goforth, E. W.

Besides naming a legislative slate
the organization also discussed cam
paign plans and elected permanent Of

devotion to Roosevelt and Roosevelt
policies knew no bounds, barely

the strength of federal patronage, a
strong hold on labor, plenty of per-

in marketing the products of their
farms and in furnishing them with
supplies used in the farming opera
tions. These associations are the
means by which the farmer-members
of the businesses have found way of
getting job done better than it had
been done before. They reflect the
resourcefulness of farmers in putting
the principle of free enterprise to
work by joining with their neighbors
in establishing businesses for the pur-
pose of doing things which they could
not do as individuals to the end of
increasing the net profit of the farm
operation.
