  Georgid Tech Has Little Trouble With GeOrqid Athens, Ga, November 1S.-Georgia Tech had little trouble beating Georgia, 21 to 0. here today. Strupper, Morrison, Johnston and Spence ran through and around the Cracker line almost at will, but several times lost the ball on fum- bles when a touchdown was in sight. During the first period Tech gained three yards to the Crackers one, but fumbles prevented any scoring. When the second period opened Johnston broke loose for 25 yards around right end and bucks by Strupper, Spence and Morri- son netting from three to F yards sent Spence across. In the third period Tech obtained the ball ssn the 20-yard line and carried it for the length of the field on long runs and line bucks by Johnston, Spence and Strupper, pushing Spence over over again. When the fourth period opened Tech, aided by a penalty of half the distance to Georgias goal, marched down the field until Strupper broke away for 15 yards and the final touchdown. Fincher kicked all three goals.
