Seven Addresses Are
Scheduled at University
; In Next Few Days
(Continued Frum #age One)
speak on “The Challenge of Our
Heritage.”
Important Parts
Demosthenian and Phi Kappa
have played important parts in
student life since ear early days
of the first chartered state uni
versity. Sometimes members spoke
under spreading elms. Often there
were Indians and untamed ani
mals to hear them.
E. Merton Coulter, University
history professor, at present on
leave of absence, says in hig “Col
lefe Life in the. Old South” (Mac
millan) that “they turned on a
flow of oratory that was to re
sound and reverberate for a cen
tury—that was to set up a cus
tom and institute a method of
popular control long to dominate
the whole South.”
Demosthenians and Phi Kappans
have debated everything. They
started with "the relative merits
of a monarchy and a republiec
Later they considered slavery, di
vorce, science and religion, agri
anism and industrialism, and
women.
Btrong Rivalry
Strong rivalry has marked ev
ery move betweeén the two Organi
zations. Years ago, along no
line was it more pronounced than
in obtaining honorary members.
It was a_ Phi Kappa honorary
initiate whey eoined the figure of
speech Callinzfi;,i”[)c‘s()oiety's debates
“bloodless battles of the imagina
tion.” Theodore O’'Hara, author
of the poem “Bivouac of the
Dead,” wrote it in his letter of
acceptance.
Students destined to become
digtinguished statesmen, juricts,
teachers and scientists made their
first speeches in Demosthenjan |
and Phi Kappa halls. |
In Phi ;Kappa were Joseph
Henry Lumpkin, Alexander H‘
Stephens, Henry W. Grady and.
later, Georgia’s Governor Eugene
Talmadge. Demosthenian had Rob- |
ert Toombs, 1.. Q. C, Lamar and‘
Joseph LeConte.
In the 1920°s the societies lostl
favor, continuéd with but few ao—l
tive members.,’ In recent years.
however, thigir rich, gnellow ro
mance and appeal hasg caught on
again, !

Government Officials
Assassinated Today
l (Continuea rrom FPage One)
!mnniqut‘. asserting:
| “Peace and order have been
‘maintained through the empire and
!tho situation is quiet.”
The majority of Tokyo public
lbuilding, however, were closed.
| A message from the Japanese
gfnroign office to Singapore - was
| quoted in a Reuters (British) News
|ag‘9ncY ditpatch:
“At 5:20 a. m., some soldiers of
the first division, acting withous
orders, assassinate® Count Saito,
|l’remier Okada and Finance Min
{ister Takahashi.
i “General Watanabe, inspector
:g(‘n(\x'ul of military education, was
i seriously wounded.
% “Count Makino and General Suz
{uki, grand chamberlain, also at
tacked but escaped. 7Prince Saion
lji and Mr, Uasa, minister to the
imperial household, and General
'Kuwashima, minister of war, are
safe.
l “It is expected the situation will
ibe settled soon.
i ‘““The assassins were led by Cap
ltain Nonaka.”
In Control
The Japanese consulate-general
’at Singapore later announced the
government was in complete con
{trol of the situation.
f Japanese officials declared the
|immediate trouble originated from
lan order, given to the first army
idivision, stationed in Tokyo, to
| proceed to the continental Japan
|ese-advised state of Manchoukuo.
| Some officers were represented
}as being unwilling to proceed,
The army also had been antagon
listic for some time toward the cab
inet of Premier Okada, and esp
ecially to Finance Minister Taka
hashi, this incident apparently
providing a motive for immediate,
tswift action.
The rebeis first met littly re
sistance, taking over the metropoli-
tan police board and the residences
of Premier Okada and other cab
inet officers in the heart of Tokyo,
reiiable reports said, but rioting
and incendiarism broke out later.
The third infantry regiment of
the first army division, stationed in
Tokyo, was reported by Japanese
sources at Shanghai to have exe
cuted the coup,
Mobilized Recently
This division was mobilized re
cently to go to service in the con~
tinental Japanese-sponsored state
of Manchoukuo, and ammunition
wag issued to the unit preparatory
to its departure,
A ‘Reuters (British) News agencCy
dispateh from Shanghai said the
rebellious third regiment was act
ually en route to the Tokyo rail
road =station, to entrain for Man
choukuo, when the troops rushed
to different partg of the city, seiz
ed public buildings and assassinat
ed the cabinet ministers.
Reports reaching Peiping, ancient
capital of North China, from Man
choukuo, indicated the coup was
not directed against the emperor
himself, but that the rebels in
stead were declaring their alleg
iance to him.
News of the Tokyo developments,
were received at Nanking with
alarm, a Reuters dispatch said, as
foreboding extreme action by the
Japanese army in China and against
Soviet Russia. ’

Today, however, the attorney
general said:
“The opinion hag reference only
to the liability of the comptroller
general, the state treasurer and
their bondsmen and goes no furth
er. It was not intended to go any
further nor cover any other sub-
Ject.”
Talmadge took up withk Fulton
bank officers the refusal to cash
| the check for Daniel.
| From authoritatives sources in
Washington came word that the
| state again faced the prospect of
|a tie-up in nearly $17,000,000 of
i‘fer]m‘a] fundz for road building be
lgcause of Governor ‘Talmadge’s
| suspension of the state treasurer.
‘ It was disclosed also that PWIA
lofrir,-ials were studying the Georgia
| situation to determine itg possible
leffect on a $360,000 grant approv
|ed recently for a building program
‘lin the University System.
' Balked Temporarily
| Balked temporarily by the last
minute strategy of the ousted trea
surer, George B. Hamilton, in set
ting an 80-hour time lock on the
treasury vault, Talmadge set lock- 1
lsmiths to work yesterday to cut the
| steel doors. :
| Another state official was ousted
from office late yesterday whens
Spottswood D. Grant, purchasing
agent for the highway board, re-‘;
ceived notice of his summary dis-j
missal. |
His discharge came in the form
of an inter-office letter bearing the
signature of Frank R. Van Story,
secretary-treasurer of the hoard.i
Grant charged the move was in
| stigated by Governor Talmadge for
| “political reasons.” |
Grant is a Dbrother-in-law of
| Marion Smith, attorney for the
suspended Treasurer Hamilton, 1\

Athenians “Re-Discover” Importance
Of Y.M.C.A. at Large Reception Held
- In Association Building Last Night
The first of a series of informa.ll
socials and - receptions was heldl
last night at the Young Men's
Christian Association building onl
Lumpkin street and several hun
dred Athenians, young and old
alike, thoroughly enjoyed the two
hour program.
The affair was given by the as
sociation in honor of the member
ship and the inewly elected associ
ate directors. The next informal.
#ocial and reception will honor
new residents of Athens and an-!
other group within the organiza.-{
tion.
Guests were greeted at tha
door of the Boy’s Lobby, were rega
istered and given cards of identis
fication, making introductions uns<’;
necessary. ]
After going through the receiv-,
ing line, in which stood the exec
utive staff of the association, life
directors, one associate director
and members of the board of di
rectors with ten or more years of
active consecutive service, the
guests heard two short talks by
A'b}tvNix, president of the associ
atfon, and” Wi T." Forbes; * general
secretary. : YR
They then adjourned to the gal
lery of the gymnasium and saw
groups of young and older boys
stage a practical physical demon
stration of the manner in which
the Y. M. C. A. takes little bodies
and make “strong and healthy
men. { |
in the absence of L. H. Cun-'
ningham, physical director, the
demonstration wag in charge of!
Ralph Cooper and the demoustra
tion won enthusiastic and contin
uel applause. It was one of the
highlights of the night. 4
Guests were conducted on a tour
of the building from the gymnasi-'
um to the dormitory for students l
on the top floor and many, who
had not realized the size and fa-l
cilities of the association, express-'
ed pleasant surprise that a town
the size of Atheng was fortunate
enough to possess such a plant. :
During the evening a commit- |
tee of ladies, under the chairmun-‘
£hip of Mrs. W. L. Erwin, served
delicious jce cream and cake andi
the program closed with interest- |

BUCKINGHAM TALKS
HERE AGAIN TONIGHT
(Continued From Pags One)
necessary speed at which our cars
are driven. }
He said that in England the
speed laws on the highways are
obeyed by everyone, and - that
travel in that country has been
made much safer than here in
America.
While discussing England as he
observed it, the speaker told of a
six-hour visit in the English par
liament, and vividly deseribed
Westminister Abbey and the cath
edral filled with glorious memo
ries of distinguished musicians,
poets, and authors. He also paid
a beautiful tribute to Queen Mary,
whom he saw while in Westmin
aster Abbey, saying that she rules
over her land with sympathy and
love.
He gave one examplt of tht way
the ¥English always obey their
laws which was brought out one
night in a saloon when one of the
occupants rose around 11 o’clock
and said, “Time has come when
the laws of England tell us to go
home ands to bed.” Those in the
saloon left immediately and did
not wait to take one last drink
as wouldt have probably beén
done in‘America. o
In closing Mr. Bockingham said
that American is the best country
to live in, and pointed out how our
nation has the best opportunity
any country has ever known if we
will only take advantage of our
chances.
He added, however, that the
American youth must learn to
master himself, and sajd the about
75 per cent of our high school
graduates do not know a thing,
but fail to realize the fact. He
also charged our youth with be
ing "superficial,” but closed by
saying that he proposed to live to
ishuw that America is the .best
country.
‘ Thrcugh-out his talk, Mr.
!Bucklngham pot in humerous
touches, ane his address was one
of the best given at Athens Highl
} school this year.

University Players
Rehearsing Behind
Bolted Docrs Now
BY DYAR MASSEY
Behind bolted doors the Univere
sity theater players are rehearsing
nightly the third act of “Double
Door” lest someone divuilge the
outcome of the mystery “thriller”
which will be presented at Sency-
Stovall Memorial theater March §
and 6,
Only members of the cast and
officials of the theater are pers
mitted to attend full rehearsals of
the production gince the result of
the melodrama centers about the
secrets of the fictitious Van Bree¢
family whose story is told by Eliza«
beth McFadden in ‘“Double Door.”
The cast of 12 university stu
dents have been rehearsing the new
production for nearly four weeks
under the direction of Edward C.
Crouse. Members of the producs.
tion staff have been at the same
time building settings to lend sup=
port to the weirdness of the melo
drama. £ i
Although the producerg in New
York formally denied that “Double
Door” rattles the skeleton of the
Whedel house closet, the analogy
to New York’s “House of Mystery”
legend is close enough to warrdant
secrecy for University theater'y
preparation for the show. 3
Romance of Memory
Still With Visitors
After a Visit Here
Thirty-seven years agotwo young
men, full of patriotism and high
purposes, not the least of which
was to win the war with Spain,
came to Athens with the 15th Penn
sylvania regiment, .
They were on their way to take
part in the Spanish-American war
and ag Athens was one of the con
centration camps, were assigned
here. The two soldiers remainea
here several months, "
Yesterday afternoon two distln
guished looking visitorg dropped
into the chamber of commerce of
fice and asked the young lady where
the 15th Pennsylvania regiment
had been encamped back in Span
ish-American war days.
The young lady didn't know, not
having been around there many
years, but she got busy on the tele
phone and found out.
The regiment had encamped just
off what iz now King avenue on
the property known ag Cathedral
Pines, for many years home of the
late Mr. and Mrs, Charles Hodg
son.
She told the visitors how to find
the location and that it was now
developed, with many modern
homes and streets.
You've guessed it, distinguishea
looking and elderly Butler County
Judge John H. Wilson and equally
distinguished looking and elderly
J. H. Jackeon, Butler, Pennsyi»
vania, attorney, were those samw
two young men who came to Ath
ens in army uniforms thirty-seven
vears ago.
. The romance of memory was the
’lure that led the visitors, en route
‘home from Florida, to stop by
Athens and seek thelr ¢ld camp
ing ground. But they left foe
Pennsylvania when they heard the
location had grown up in modera
homes and streets—the memory off
the old days still intact, \
