The higher is climbed, the lower Mr. Richard Jones sank into his seat. Georgia Tech was taking its first football trip by plane, but was doing so over the strenuous objections of Mr.

Jones, the trainer, and Porto Rico, the ancient colored training-room attendant. Both were making their first trip by air. Jones found out by some means that parachutes were not going to be available for the trip and based his objections on this. In fact, he even based them at 4:30 Saturday morning to Rufus Askew, the team physician. Jimmy Petit, the little halfback, remedied the situation by iei jlflqpp fflmkiiMfla j)Gg(giik, 12 Ji 1 1 II If mm bringing a parachute to Jones, whose eyes lighted In deep appreciation.

The trainer strapped it on his back, practiced yelling "Geroni-mo" a couple of times and was feeling pretty good about the whole thing. This atmosphere prevailed until we were off the ground, when Mr. Jones was informed by the tittering Yellow Jackets that it was a good parachute with one exception it was only the case which possessed no more silk or nylon than a pair of war-time stockings. RoarW Tn Tiimn With that knowledge in his bushy brow, Mr. Jieauy iu jump jones continued to sink lower and lower into his seat.

Porto Rico, who has been around long enough to remember when football trips were taken aboard two-mule powered wagons, Model M-5, A-99, was not so technical in his cbjections. He just plain didn't see any sense In It. The Ol Mass had riven him a couple of legs end If he had meant for him to fly, he would have also given him wings. It is understood Porto felt the same way when the first automobile appeared. However, we are happy to report that Mr.

Jones and Porto Rico stood up well under the ordeal, much better, In fact, than several of the players who became a little air sick. Several of the Tech players were fliers during the war and were keenly interested when the Eastern Air Lines people took them on a tour of the big ship. PI Ana we Train There are advantages and disadvantages to riane vs. nam flyirfg fotball teams. Coach Bobby Dodd, of Tech, says the biggest advantage is it eliminates what he calls "train legs' of the players.

This is a stiffness and soreness which develops after long train rides and takes quit a bit of work to get the spring back into the athletes' legs. Others will say that plane travel is best because the speed keeps the boys away from their classes a lot less. This is not entirely true. All flights by plane are scheduled far enough in advance for the team to catch a train in time for the game should the weather prevent flying. There are various other arguments," both pro and con, such as the difficulty of getting to certain playing sites either by plane or train.

The players themselves are as any other group of citizens would be. Some like flying. Others don't. Plane travel by football teams has increased tremendously since the conclusion of the war, but the day that it entirely replaces trains is a long way off.

BATON ROUGE, Oct. 19 Georgia Tech unleashed a startling running attack here tonight to hand LSU its first loss of the season, 26-7, before an equally startled crowd of 40,000 homecoming fans.

Joel was at LSU during the heyday of the late Huey Long and many stories of the politician's love for football. One of them concerns a circus, which had scheduled a performance in Raton Rouge on the same day as a big football game. Quite naturally. Long didn't want any competition for gate receipts for his football team. Therefore, he summoned an official of the circus and requested he postpone his performance until the following Monday.

The official refused, as everyone connected with sports knows Monday is a bad day to lure the faithful from their homes. "Well," drawled Hucy, after listening to the refusal, "that don't seem much like a wise move on your part to me. You see, Mr. Jones, we passed a tick law here in Louisiana which provides that all animals coming into the State must be dipped. "And did you ever try to dip a wild tiger in creosote?" Needless to say, the circus performance was postponed.

In the final two quarters when Tech overcame a 6-7 deficit, not one pass was thrown. A fair example of how the Yellow Jackets completely dominated play by virtue of a brilliant line headed by Bobby Davis, Bill Healey, Paul Duke and Ewell Pope, may be gained from the fact that the Tigers could advance no further than their own 41 yard line in the second half.

Auburn made only one real offensive threat.

But a five-yard penalty, coupled with Tidwell being tossed for a loss on first down, finally resulted in Auburn losing the ball on the Tulane 16.
