I e AN ATHENS CHRONICLE Number Eighteen Guessing the personnel of Andrew ackson's cabinet was a pastime which engaged the attention of many Athenians in ¢ne early part of 1829. Jackson, with the enthus jastice support of the Democrat- Republicans of Clarxe county, had heen elected over John Quiney Adames in the presidential campaign of 1828, but the old man was slow {0 announce his cabinet, In the meantime, the slate- makers were husy here and elsewhere picking it for him. Among those prominently men ¢oned was Wm. H. Crawfogd, for socretary of state, Crawford was at that time judge of the superior court of thre northern cireuit, and had retired from national politics. At Woodlawn, his home near where the town of Crawford in Oglethorpe county is situated, the former Sec retary of the Treasurey and Min ister to I'rance was observing ra ther than participating in the na tional whirligig, except for attacks. Troup Mentioned Senator George M.® Troup, who was leader of the Troup party in Georgia, was reported to have been invited to visit General Jackson upon the latter’s arrival in Wash ington for the inauguration. This report immediately led the poli tical gossips to include Troup in their cabinet slates, The Georgian who finally did land one of the big plums, however, was Senator John M. Berrien, who was described by an ohserver as the equal of Daniel Webster, In Jackson’s second c¢ab inet, John Forsyth was given an appointment, While the political rumor fac tory was grinding our all sorts of reports anent the Jacksonian cab inet, citizens here read in their lo cal paper, the Athenian, much co mment on the probable and pos sible appointees and other political dope. According to information re ceived here, the city: 6f Washington was full of loyal Democrats looking for jobs, at the hands of Jackson; a sitvation which led Editor Shaw 10 declare that he “wouldn’t be in the olg gentleman’s breiches for his salary when he arrives in Washington™ “Phe @inital was the scene of much sirife and confusion with everybody bent on getting his name on the publie payroll. “From the hints and innuendeos,” Mr. Shaw remarks, “which we have seen from Washington, perhaps more wrangling for the loaves and fishes, the cheese parings and candle ends of office, has never heen witnessed in that city than at the present writing.” Not Neglected Cieneral Jackson, it was said, wanted to hear from all the people about everything that concerned them. It was the first election in which the masses of the people had taken part and the old warrior wanted them to know that it was their government and he was their president. And, ‘he has not heen neglected,” the Athenlan remark ed. “It is said that on his arrival al Washington he found letters in his office, the postage of which amounted to upwards of seven hun dred dollars.” General Jackson had glready im pressed Athenians with bis inde bendence and boldness of action, 4s can be seen by the scorn with Wwhich Editor Shaw greets news }“'Y‘fl‘ reports that the General :i'ould not afford to hazard the res fusal” to make this or that man Secretary of State, or, what-not. Such threats, in Mr. Shaw’s opin on, were “pitiful”—which he fur ther characterized as ‘pop-guns so turn a lion.” It was in March, 1829, also thal‘l Athens began to take a decideq in -I"'w"v.<r in Sunday schools, James W. Welch, agent for the American Sunday School Union, of Philadel bhia, with headgquarters ‘at Mill edgeville, visited the village along! dbout . Jat time.

Presided over hy C. A.

One of the first acts of the Scout Council will be to employ a trained, per manent Boy Scout executive who will be recommended by the Nat jonal Boy Scout organization. The executive will proceed to organ ize troops throughout the commu nity, paying particular attention to the underprivileged boys of Athens. Mr. Michael, in discussing the objectives of the Boy Scout work here, said this morning that the need for such an organization is apparent, particularly from the angle of juvenile «delinquency. He declared that the number of juve nile delinquents in this community is sufficient to warrant an organ ization such as the Scouts, among whose aims is to encourage boys to become good citizens. ‘ Mr. Nix said the community realizes at last that a Boy Scout organization, with @ permanent, | trained executive, is needed here for work among the boys, and he expressed the opinion that all cit izens will join in making such a.| (Continued on page two.)

Performances of ‘‘Chris topher Bean” Thursday And Friday Evenings The contrast between old time methods of dramatic production at the University and those of today, as they will be typified in the Thalian-Blackfriars production of “The Late Shristopher Bean” on Thursday and Friday evenings of this week, was strikingly illustra ted Tuesday when T. W. Reed, University Registrar, recalled in cidents from an early University theatrical presentation. . _ Mr. Reed, in thinking back over the past, was reminded of a play in which he appeared during his senior year at the University in 1888. The play, “Ingomar,” was a drama of Roman times, and the leading character, the late Thom as R. R. Cobb of Athens, played the role of a barbarian leader. The leading feminine role was portiray ed by Miss Claudie Lewis, of Montgomery, Ala., invited to Ath ens especially for the production of the play, since at that time there were no co-eds. “] have never seeén a more beau tiful play,” said Mr. Reed in dis cussing “Ingomar.” Our silk and satins, which you order so easily from New York, did not come sc easily for us. We had to improvise our own costumes, xnd we search ed all over town trying to outfit ourselves,” recalled Mr. Reed. He told of improvised toga which he himself wore as a Roman citizen’s (Continued on page two.) By Jack Braswell months for paving, Broad street was opened Monday afternoon at 6 o'clock.
