K. 7-7, On 'Last-Chance' Tally Wildcats Get Touchdown On 29-Yard Pass In First Period; Another Scoring Play Called Back; Fierce Battle Marked By Fight; Sinkwich Stars By GERALD GRIFFIN, Courier-Journal Writer. Athens, Oct.

25. Riding high behind a sensational sophomore halfback named Frank Sinkwich, the Georgia Bulldogs came from behind in the last three minutes tonight and earned a well-deserved tie with the Kentucky Wildcats, each team scoring a touchdown and the extra point. The Kentuckians, who started off like they were going to win their first Big 13 victory of the season, ripped the Bulldogs to pieces during the first half then tired in the last two periods, while Georgia picked up in speed. It was a glistening forward pass that gave the Cats their marker and it was their inability to halt the passing of Sinkwich that resulted in Georgia's score. And still the old rivalry between Coach Ab Kirwan of Kentucky and Wally Butts cf Georgia, which began when they tutore high school teams at Louisville, remains undecided.

Each has won two victories over the other and tonight's tie retained the RUBY'S REPORT Dream of a Three-Way City Title Fight Seems Reality As St. Ranked No. 1 In Kentucky, Faces Manual Saturday Ever since a day in 1924 wheri Tom King, now assistant football coach at Michigan State, inaugurated Male High's annual gridiron series with St. Xavier, then coached by Mark Kessenich, scholastic football followers have looked forward to a time when the city championship might be a three-way fight. Because of many difficulties, the Tigers progressed very slowly, and though they managed to defeat Male three times and Manual once, they never were regarded as a serious threat until this year.

They smeared Manual in 1932 by 32-6, but lost to the Turples later in the season by 20-7. Then in 1935, when they eked out a 7-6 edge on Wallace Butts' first Male eleven, they dropped a 39-0 decision to Ab Kirwan's tribe. In 1936, they lost to Manual by 7-0 before ripping Male by that same score on Armistice Day. Then, in 1938, when once more it was their good fortune to sock Homer Jackson's Purples by 19-7, it was their bad luck to spoil their title chances earlier in the campaign by dropping a 47-0 bout to Manual. This year the Green and Gold gladiators are ranked No.

1 in Kentucky by Dr. E. E. Litkenhous, and critics generally agree that from now on the Tigers will be plenty tough. You won't want to miss Saturday's struggle.

All talk about Eastern-wanting to play Western in football this season is just according to Coach Gander Terry of Western. Rome Rankin and Tom McDonough were offered the same date as in 1938 and 1939, but declined on the grounds that Western was too tough.

The battle tonight was a fierce one with plenty of penalties, one of which placed the Wildcats in a hole in the last quarter from which they never rallied. This bit of arbitrating, which brought protests from the Kentucky coaches, cost Kentucky 39 yards and gave Georgia a first down on the Wildcat 30-yard line.

The truculent Cardinals, smart ing under two previous successive thumpings, clicked in a fashion that warmed the hearts of Louisville partisans.

contingent well-stocked with shock troops that battered the invaders, who had but five reserves on the bench and substituted but once for the first three quarters. Both squads took advantage of miscues to score in the first half. The victory-hungry Cardinals, paced by 160-pound Jimmy Ro-senfield, didn't waste much time rolling over the Ohioans for two tallies before the Buckeyes countered. "Rosey" marked up both early scores.

Tete Hesmer, former track coach at Male High School, was a national intercollegiate champion in wrestling while at the Uni- versity of Illinois; Frank White, the basketball coach at Male, was an all-American forward in basketball in 1929 at Butler, and Hank Stovall, Purples' head football coach, was voted the most team in 1928. Taul Garrett, son of Western's prexy, and now a freshman in the school, is destined to be one of the greatest distance runners in the South before he graduates.

Again, Rosenfield, apparently recovered from injuries which held him back earlier in the season, romped across the double lines. "Rosey" took Pelligrinon's punt from the end zone on the Holbrook 40 and pranced to the 22. Wright crashed left tackle for 14 yards to the 4 after Stone went through the middle for 4. Holbrook stymied the Birds on three attempts, but on a Statue of Liberty, Wright to Rosenfield, "Rosey" tallied from the 4.

While chicle dispensing is his business, football remains Harmon's pleasure. Here is one instance where mixing business with pleasure would be a cinch to gum up the works.

U. of L. took the kick-off and churned its way from its own 27 to the Holbrook 12 on line charges by Wright, Joe Stone, who once gained 27 yards, and Rosenfield. Wright bucked to the 3 from the 12 on two successive plays, then Stone, on a reverse, scampered for the third touchdown.

Rosenfield did not convert. WRIGHT INTERCEPTS Wright intercepted a Holbrook pass on the invaders' 34. He passed to Boyle to the 25. and Buddy ran to the 15. Joe Stone again scored on a reverse from Wright, this time for 16 yards.

and wyatt. Fosey, Georgia tackle. Fritz was put out of the game, but Posey was allowed to remain although both were swinging at each other in plain view of the 15.000 fans. Georgia scored when the clock showed only two and a half minutes were i left in the ball game but the Wildcats fought back and when the game ended the home team was stalling on the Bulldog 10-yard stripe. Both teams made magnificent goal-line stands and might have spelled a victory for either team if they had failed.

First it was the Bulldogs who showed their Statistics: r. k. Ga.

This was in the initial quarter when the Cats had driven from their own 33 to the Georgia five. Two vicious line plunges by big Charlie Ishmael and another by Noah Mullins made it fourth and less than a yard to go, but Charlie was halted just inches short of the lino on his finnl try. It was the might of the Wild cat wall that asserted itself under similar circumstances in the third when, with about a foot to go for a touchdown and one down left in which to make it, Sinkwich was nailed in his tracks and Kentucky kicked out of danger for the moment. It was the uncanny ability of Kentucky's quarterback, Junior Jones, to punt out of bounds within the Bulldog 5-yard line, that kept the Georgians with their backs to the wall in the first half. He was punting because Mullins, the regular kicker, has a mashed foot.

U. K. KEPT BALL There was enough spine tingling football crowded into the first half of tonight's game to satisfy any gridiron fan in the land but the edge was in favor of the Blue- arass boys. They remained in Georgia territory most of the first two periods. The home team, in fact, didn't have a chance to carry the ball a single time until after- the start of the second period because of the accuracy with which Jones placed his punts out of bounds close to the Georgia goal line.

The Wildcats appeared to have made another marker in the irv itial stanza but it was called back after Bob Herbert, sophomore fullback, was called out of bounds five yards after he had started on a nifty 29-yard dash to cross the goal line. But it didn't make much difference at that time for the Kentuckians made it good on the next play. After vastly outplaying the home team in the first quarter and barging down to the five-yard line only to fail by inches on four line plays of making a touchdown, the Cats continued in the next period to enter the promised land. Allen had fooled the Georgians when he, instead of Jones, punt (Continued on Tage 5, Column 1.)
