DR. SANFORD BECOMES
THIRD CHANCELLOR
On July Ist, Chancellor S. V. San
ford became the third Chancellor of
the University System of Georgiu.
Dr. Sanford has served tho univer
sity with unprecedented success over
a period of thirty years as instructor,
dean and president. In all of these
positions he has served with distinc
tion and honor. He has always been
in the front trenches when any fight
has been inaugurated in behalf of ed
ucation. His election as chancellor
comes as a crowning tribute to a man
who has served the university so faith
fully and efficiently.
We of West Georgia sincerely be
lieve that the University System, un
der his energetic leadership, will con
tinue its meteoric rise of the past two
years. *
INTERESTING SPEAKERS
ADDRESS STUDENTS
On Juno 25, Mrs. Mury Harris
Armour, a noted W. T. C. U. lecturer,
who has spent more than thirty years
in speaking and studying in this coun
try and abroad, gave a fine exposition
of the effects of drinking to tho
chapel audience.
Mrs. Armour pointed out the bad
results of even moderate drinking on
women, on drivers, and. on business
men. “Drinking has wrecked more
homes, caused more accidents, and more
women of their virtue, and ended the
business careers of more otherwise
successful men than any other vice.”
Mrs. Armour’s talk impressed every*
one with its sineerety, understanding,
and effectiveness. Her main point
was that drinking, once started, is a
curse that is almost never quit, and
one that knows rather than diminishes.
It is easy to understand why, with
such intelligent women as Mrs. Arm
our lecturing for the eause of temper-;
ance, the state banned liquor in the
recent elections.
In his chapel talk on July 2, Rev.
Pearce Harris, Columbus minister and
conductor of a revival in Carrollton,
delighted the students with witty and
instructive advice on the purpose and
work of teachers. Since the majority
of those attending summer school are
either teachers now or hope to teach
later, this was a timely subject. Al
though Rev. Harris is now a minister,
he once had inclinations toward teach
ing, and he is fully prepared to
sympathize with those engaged in so
noble a profession.
Interesting speakers are not rare,
but speakers W’ho can present good
jokes in such a way that they are
amusing are an asset to any chapeL
Everyone appreciated Rev. Harris’
gift of wit, and it is hoped that he
will visit West Georgia again.

ly changing in the hope of achieving

GEORGIA PRESS UNVEILS
MARKER TO McINTOSH
On Friday afternoon, June 20, tho
West Georgia students had the pleas
ure of being hosts to tho Georgia
Press Association at tho unveiling of
a marker orocted to the memory of
ono of the greatest men in tho his
tory of tho state of Georgia, tho
famed Indian leader, General William
Mclntosh.
This marker was the granite step
ping stone owned by Mclntosh for
tho convenience of Indian maidens in
mounting their ponies. It was moved
from the Mclntosh Reserve on the
Chattahoochee river, when this col
lege, the former Fourth District A &
M. school, was built, and was laid as
a corner stone at the women’s dormi
tory. Tho shrubbery had grown and
completely covered tho famous stone,
so it was removed and carried to Mr.
Julian Harris, an Atlanta and Car
rollton sculptor, who reshaped tho
stone ami placed a bronze tablet with
an inscription on it.
Tho elaborate service was opened
by a song, “America,” followed by
the invocation led by Rev. E. A. Kil
gore, of the Tabernacle church of Car
rollton. Mr. Milton L. Fleetwood,
president of the Georgia Press Asso
siation, who was in charge of tho
program, introduced to the audience
many outstanding people. Dr. Elmer
G. Campbell, a member of tho Uni
versity of Georgia Evening School of
Commerce, rendered a beautiful poem
which he had previously written pay
ing tribute to the beloved red skin
leader.
The s pneetr of Mi. Henry- ‘l 1 ; Mr,lk
tosh, editor of the Albany Herald, and
a member of the illustrious Mclntosh
clan, was the feature in tho dedica
tion. In his address he told the life
and character of his celebrated kins
man, the chief of the Lower Chero
kces, General William Mclntosh.
After the exercises were completed
a delicious picnic supper w'as served
on the campus. Then the guests vis
ited the attractive log cabin, where
they were asked to register.
At seven o’clock a special program
entitled “An Evening of Mystery”
was staged in the college auditorium.
The mystery turned out to be an
amusing and clever series of illumin
ating slides of cartoons, which repre
sented the titles of newspapers in
Georgia.
The occasion was one of interest
and pleasure to the students and fac
ulty of West Georgia, and seemed to
be greatly enjoyed by all of the guefits.
GLEE CLUB ORGANIZED

CIVIC GOLF COURSE
STARTED ON CAMPUS
Since last fall it has been the plan
and tho goal of the college to build a
a golf course on the campus for the
enlargement of our recreational pro
gram at this institution. Projects
were set up under the FERA at that
time, but it was not until this spring,
that under the untiring work on the
part of Dean Gunn the project waß
finally approved and work was actu
ally begun on tho course. There are
between thirty and forty men con
sistently working in order to com
plete the golf eourse for the fall ses
sion.
Through the interest aroused among
a number of the business men in town
who agreed to become members and
help finance the construction, the
course became a reality. Approxi
mately thirty of the representative
men of the city, all golf enthusiasts
are co-operating with Mr. Gunn, each
feeling that the course is worth much
more to them than each is asked to
contribute. As is well known, Car
rollton has little to offer its citizens
in the form of recreation and conse
quently this course will fill a long felt
need. This is not only a valuable ad
dition to the college and community
but also will beautify our campus.
The course, as laid out by Mr. Gunn,
consists of nine holes, embracing a
portion of the present pasture, some
wooded land and some cleared farm
land. The terrain is ideally suited
for a course and should end itself
suitably for the making of one of the
most beautiful courses in this section
of the state. Much of the course will
lay in between wooded hills. There
is a spring near the proposed third
hole and ideal spot for a pienic ground.
The course will be open to the stu
dent body and faculty of the school |
as well as to the members from town, j
All owe Mr. Gunn, our dean, a vote of j
thanks for the great effort he has pati|
forth on the project as well as t ,;O
local FERA officials. j
