S'--: Score in Cloning Minute of Close Battle. i-. vv 4 Hi -J WHITXKR CART. Constitution Staff Correspondent. Jacksonville, November 5.

Red Teiil, better known in some circles as the Georgia football team, this afternoon gave a convincing and spectacular demonstration of why it has been called a great gridiron machine when in the presence of some 15,000 spectators it rode to an impressive 2S-to-0 victory over the hard-fight-ir and game Florida 'Gators. It was a victory that saw Ilerdis McCrary, plunging Georgia fullback, plow through the opposition like a keen knife cutting through hot butter; which aw this human wave of destruction time and again sweep the Florida team before him as some mighty roller front the ocean would send seaweed before its angry charge; which this player possessed of the armor and driving force of a modern wartime tank, yplns a generationg power of a heart and soul whose one seeming thought was yardage, more yardage and first downs; which saw him exhibit his great versatility by quit-ling his job as line plunger on two occasions to sift through the line and-grab two forward passes from the accurate hand of Johnston for touchdowns. Is it any wonder that tonight th name of McCrary echoes over this football-mad town in such volume that its whispers are even now being heard on the peaceful expanse of the Sr. Johns river? McCrary had given ample proof in his former demonstrations this year that he was a good football player. This afternoon beneath a cloudless sky he gave an exhibition that caused the lips of lo.OOO souls to form the word "great" before his name.

When, in the third period, a blow on the back of the neck, a kind of glorified. unintentional rabbit punch, caused his retirement, these r.V DICK II I Constitution Sports Kdilor.
