It was one of those things read about often, witnessed seldom.

And all through the game, there was brilliant battle of wlte, the two quarterbacks, pitted against each other a battle where eaqfi waa constantly Oil the alert to put something over, Ut where thla was made almost lm possible by the sureness with which both teams followed the ball. In few battles Birmingham haa witnessed was there such close following tif the ball; So many plays where whole flocks of toan were In them. And through It all. It must be remem-, be red both colleges were represented by young teams.

It was Georgias half The bail had been In Alabama territory for practically the entire half, and, besides, when a touchdown was eminent, a fumble, and not Alabama's stiffness, sent the hall bai to where a try for a field goal was necessary. With the opening of ihe second half, Georg again started in to keep the hall in Alabama's territory.

The Red ar.d Black team was successful in this foaJr perhaps the first part of the third quarter. After that, Alabama took possession of the game. The Crimson quarter opened up big holes ths Georgia line. Using a direct pass to Johnson, Gage and Taylor, the Crimson marched right down to the shadows of the goaL The Georgia team, to the end of the game then, seemed unable to solve this play. Field Goal Falls.

Alabama went down towards the goal line, but when the march was stopped, the Crimson made a try for a field goal. It was a miss, the ball going way off. Georgia kicked to Alabama, and the Crimson started back. Down on the 25-yard line, Alabama lost the ball again. The direct passes had proven sure gainers.

A score seemed eminent. Then, on fourth down, with but two yards to go. Creen suddenly switched from his bucking pUv, and punted. The Alabama backs had been ripping off two, four and eight yards to the play, and the sudden switch to the punt left the spectators breath.eas and dazed. To the stands, appeared as if Alabama had deliberately thrown awav the chance to take the game But Alabama had another chance and a good one.

On an exchange of punts the fourth quarter, Alabama took the ball about midfield. For the frrt time then, Creen opened with his full repertoire. 1 direct pass was used continually. Tnen, when the Georgia line tightened up to etop the line plays. Creen resorted to a forward pass that worked beautifully time and time again.

In other words, the teams that fought to Birmingham Thanksgiving will be Veterans two years hence. And on that date, -It wouldn't be surprising In, the least If the laigest crowd that ever neeaed a football game In Birmingham didn't gather to see Alabama and Geor-gta fight out the Southern Champions' i ship. Here's hoping. -On of the most satisfying things about the whole game was the indlca-, tlons It gave tor future development and i strength of two colleges known through-, out the South for ttveir sportsmanship, for their real college rivalry and spirit. 11 The prospects of Alabama and Geoigia coming forward to the place they have i always deserved is a pleasing morsel for the sport loving public of Birming-ham to smack upon.

It Was Orest Game. But coming back to that game. It was a football game In the second quarter, though no one would have believed it at the time. Just betore the climax, Georgia had worked the ball down to within 1 a fw feet of the goal line. Here a penalty for holding robbed Georgia of a possible touchdown.

The penalty sent the Red and Black back to the 23-yard line. It was fourth down, and, Don- nelly decided to try for an aeroplane score. Right here, It Is fitting to compll- ment Georgia on the Way its line held for that kick. Not forward sifted through until the ball was on Its wav to tbs uprights.
