FACING A CRISIS. \ ' Following the announcement In Fri day’s paper that tbe appropriation committee of tho Georgia legislature has suggested a cut In the appropria tions to tbe Unlvorstty of Georgia and the -State College ot Agriculture for the ensuing year, tho feeling that something must bo done to keep tills suggestion from materializing has fill ed the mind of every thinking person. With the University of Georgia al ready laboring under the greatest ot handicaps on account of the lack ot funds, what would the situation dur ing the 1921-22 session be with a de crease in the meager amount that tho University has for the past few ydars been receiving? Even the most optimistic cannot see a ray ot hope In such a situation. It Is estimated that should the legisla ture act' favorably on the suggestion ot the appropriation committee, It will mean a loss ot more than a halt million dollars to the Institutions lo cated in this city and consequently to Athens. This speaks tor itself! What can be done? The University of Georgia, an well as other Institu tions, must continue to operate, and without funds. This Is an impossi blllty! A committee at Athens citi zens from the Chamber of Commerce and the Retail Merchants' association will go to Atlanta and make a tight to see that something is done to re lleve the situation. It is to be hoped that their fight will not be In vain. The University ot Georgia must have funds! This fact cannot evaded. Surely the legislature Georgia will not see her own state institution of higher learning die ot starvatiou! Dr. M'PHERSON HONORED. Dr. J. H. T. McPherson, professor of history and political science at tne University of Georgia and a member of tho state tax commission, had very distinctive honor conferred upon him Friday, when he was appointed to represent the state of Georgia at the National Tax association's convention.

During the day Friday two serious automobile accidents occurred in Athens, both taking place, at street Intersections. These are but two out of many that might have and wllf occur unless drivers are more care ful. Speeding at intersections is more dangerous than words can picture and officials should see to it that persons guilty of such are branded ns crim inals.
