Arthur Clarence "Kit" Jones was an American college football player.
University of Georgia
Jones prepped at Princeton Prep School in New Jersey.[1][2] He was a prominent running back for the Georgia Bulldogs football team of the University of Georgia.[3] In 1897, he was on the team during the season in which Richard Von Albade Gammon died. He was a renowned punter; a skill which had him moved to fullback by 1898.[4] In this capacity Jones was selected All-Southern by W. A. Lambeth.[5] Georgia beat Vanderbilt for the first time in '98. Jones was captain-elect for the '99 season.[6][7]
