The winner of this game will go through the remainder of the schedule un molested in all probability. Watkinsville is expected to be at her best for the game Satur day and the same thing is expect ed to be true of Whitehall White hall, with the addition of two good players, will present an unusual team. Gordon Akins, one of the new players has already demon strated his ability to hit in the game lagt Saturday when he made one triple, two doubles and omne single in his five trips to the plate against Bishop. Saxon, the other player, is mcre or less a ‘“dark horge” to Tri-County league fans as little is known about his play ing. Watkinsville will use her full strength in this game as this is the game of games for them. Wat kinsville led by “Babe” Davis looked every inch of a champion in last Safjurdays game jand it would not come as a surprise if they were to win the game with the league leaders Saturday. If the same battery that was used last Saturday is used, a Watkinsville wvictory is expected. ~ Harmony Grove and Bishop clash at Commerce and Statham Innd Commerce Nats meet at Statham in the other games to bhe ‘played in the league Saturday.

Ackerman, of the Columbia University School of Journalism, said in statement Tuesday that, in formulating a newspaper code, “it is essential”’ that the government be placed on record as still recog nizing the constitutional rights of the freedom of the press. I He added that because of ‘“high pressure publicity through publicl meetings, advertisements, confer ences, movies and airplanes . . l we have government today by emotion rather than government by public opinion.” The statement was issued upon the return of Dean Ackerman from a tour of ten states. It said: “From New York to Virginia and west of Tlllinois, T found an un healthy state of mind. There was considerable private eriticism of’ General Johnson and the National Recovery Administration. This ] criticism is at present submerged because of the paradox of a presi-l dent, who is supported by the pub- | lic because of their confidence in him, and an administrator of the NRA, who is supported because of the public fear in him. “There may be many raesons fori thig condition.
