ATLANTA, Aug. 8 Cap -
Wally Butts, who took Geor-
gia's football team to its first
bowl game, said today in Fed
eral court that he had never
divulged any information
about his university's squad to
any opposing coach.
"Emphatically no." the
stocky, grazing Butts replied
when asked if he had given
data on Georgia's team to
Coach Paul (Bear) Bryant of
Alabama last fall.
Have you in any converse
ton with Coach Bryant over
the telephone or in person
ever discussed with him what
the University Of Georgia
planned to do in q game with
the University Of Alabama?"
mo"
us there any doubt in your
mind about it?"
Absolutely not"
Sues for $40 Million
Butts, who resigned February
% as athletic director at Geor-
gia after 81 years of coaching
there. took the stand as the
opening witness in the fifth
day of testimony in his $40
million libel suit against Cur
tbs Publishing Co. Butts sued
because an article In the Cur
tiS-owned Saturday Evening
Post charged him and Bryant
with rigging the 1852 Georgia
Alabama game. Alabama won,
$50.
Butts said he had known
Bryant for many years, had
often talked with him about
football ana particularly about
some new rule interpretations
last fall.
Two former Alabama foot
ball players testified yesterday
their team was not prepared
for offensive playing forma-
tons employed by Georgia in
the 1852 game. ...
Charlie Pell, a tackle on the
1862 Alabama team, said his
squad had to change It's de-
fensive setup in the controver-
sial game after Georgia came
out with a split-end formation.
I'VE weren't prepared for this
formation" he said.

ant. And If we did we ought

Bryant read notes Of an al
legged telephone conversation
in which the Post article
charged Butts gave vital Geor-
gia football information to
Bryant. George p. Burnett, an
Atlanta insurance salesman
had said he jotted down the
notes after accidently being
cut in on a telephone call be-
tween the two coaches.
The Alabama coach testified
that he did not remember any
specific telephone calls to OF
from Butts last fall. He said
he and Butts had talked a lot
about football in general and
rules interpretations in partic-
ular last fall.
