Thanks to McCook's Pharmacy for making the replay of the Bulloch Tid Bit's available on Grice Connect.
Charles Herty was a graduate of both UGA and Johns Hopkins. He taught chemistry in the Franklin College at UGA but more importantly he began the football program at GEORGIA. Herty formed the Savannah Paper and Pulp Laboratory in Savannah and by 1933 the plant developed a process for pulp conversion and newsprint was developed. At Georgia Southern the Herty Building is named for him and there is also the Herty Pine Forest.
