Third Negro Registers
At University of Ga.
Athens, Ga. — A third Negro
student registered at the Universi
ty of Ga. Monday without disturb
ance and virtually without notice.
She is Mary Frances Early, an
Atlanta school teacher, who en
rolled for music studies in the uni
versity’s graduate school.
The university’s two other Ne
gro students, Hamilton Holmes
and Charlayne Hunter, are not at
tending the summer session. They
expect to return in the fall.
Rioting folowed the court-order
admission of Holmes and Char
layne last January.
There were no disorders on
the campus Monday as the Negro
woman went about normal regis
tration procedures.
“It was just another registration
day as far as we were concerned,”
Dean Williams said.
Students cm the campus reported
that many of those registering did
not even realize the new enrolee
was in the group.
The Negro graduate student has
been assigned to Center Myers
dormitory where the Hunter wom
an lived during the winter and
spring quarters.
Classes at the University begin
Tuesday.

The sweetest way
in the world to cook
THAT’S WHAT you’ll say when you let low-cost
electricity do your cooking. It’s fast, cool,
clean and economical.
The surface units of a flameless electric
range are designed to give fast-start cooking
plus measured heat—the right heat for any
cooking job. Electricity makes pot-watching
and flame-adjusting things of the past.
Your electric range delivers the heat directly
to the food, leaving the kitchen—and you—
cool and fresh.
Electric cooking is the cleanest way to
cook—no grimy [Hits and pans to scour, no
soot or smoke to soil kitchen walls.
Electricity is a bigger bargain than ever
before. So is electric cooking!
Whether you’re preparing a juicy beef
stew or a tang.v peach delight, electricity will
cook it to mouth-watering perfection.
So when you cook, do it the modern way.
Do it electrically.

GEORGIA
Peter Zack Geer, Chairman
Civil War Centennial Commission
At the outbreak of the Civil War, one hundred years
ago, Georgia was at her peak of prosperity and prog
ress. The population had increased to 1,057,286, several
railroads had been chartered, banking institutions num
bered 26, commerce and agriculture had been greatly
stimulated and the public wealth of the state hr. 1 in
creased over $60,000,000 during one year alone.
Cotton was still king in Georgia, with production of
corn close behind, but we were far from being depen
dent solely upon an agrarian economy. During the ten
years prior to the Civil War, Georgia had made tre
mendous strides in industrial expansion. The amount
of capital invested in manufacturing and the annual
value of industrial products in this state was exceeded
only by Virginia and Tennessee in the South. Our rail
road mileage was greater than any other state in the
South except for Virginia, and Atlanta was one of the
most important railroad centers in the United States.
The hands and minds of Georgians had taken a wilder
ness of mountains, forests, red clay and swamps and
molded it into a thriving, prosperous and proud state.
We had passed through the lean pioneer years into a
golden age and emerged as the Empire state of the
South.
Seceding from the Union was a serious menace to
the progress of our state. On the other hand, there
were forces threatening that which was even more I
important than our progress—our independence as a
state.
On November 7, 1860, the day of Lincoln’s election,
the Georgia Legislature convened for its annual session.
The result of the presidential election was yet un
known, but many Georgians believed that Lincoln’s
election was a foregone conclusion. This, by itself, was
enough to warrant secession among many Georgians.
Lincoln’s popularity in this state at that time was re
flected in the fact that he received not one single vote
for president, probably the only presidential candidate
who has ever registered zero among the voters of
Georgia.
Some of the greatest leaders in Georgia history were
present at the 1860 legislative session. Most of those
who favored John C. Breckinridge for president de
manded immediate secession. The brilliant orator,
Thomas R. R. Cobb, his brother, Howell Cobb, who
resigned as U. S. Secretary of Treasury, and Robert
Toombs, urged the legislature and the people to take
Georgia out of the Union.
Other prominent Georgians such as Benjamin H.
Hill, Alexander Stephens and Hershel Johnson, believ
ing that the South’s grievances could be remedied
within the Union, urged Georgia not to secede. Gover
nor Joseph E. Brown and the legislature called for a
state convention of delegates to meet and consider the
advisability of secession. This assembly met in Milledge-
ville on January 16, 1861, and voted 166 to 130 in favor
of secession. The Ordinance of Secession was adopted
on January 19, and Georgia was formally out of the
Union.
Disunion, in itself, did not mean war. To many it
was a means of demanding more favorable terms for
the Southern states, with the ultimate aim of returning
to the Union. To others, it was a plan for a Confederacy
to prevent disintegration of the South—and, to some, it
was an expression of defiance for the failure of Cong
ress to guarantee protection of Southern institutions.
Georgia, along with her sister states, was moving
unwittingly toward the brink of disaster. Her proud
sons and daughters, faced with little choice but dis
honor and utter submission, were being forced down
the path of tragedy.
