STATE UNIVERSITY PAPERS.
The Faculty May Attempt to Restrict
Their Utterances.


ATHENS, Ga, March 22.-There was a
heated contest in tho TWO literary societies OF
the university to-day. 1t was on the election
of editors for the University Reporter, the
college paper. After several ballots the
following was the result
From the Demosthenian society--ti 4.
Pollock Of Rome, Il. Il. Levery of Atlanta.
and G. Thompson Of Jefferson.
From the Phi Kappa--J. E. Smith of
Statesboro, J. b. Fitzgerald Of Thomas
county, and N. j. Shaw Of Rome.
This is, perhaps, the last staff OF editors
which will enjoy freedom Of speech in the
university, as it is claimed by cer-
tain members of the faculty that
the boys are too liberal with
their jokes, and that often wrong
constructions are placed upon them
which does the university no good. 1t is also
possible that the faculty wants to suppress
the publication of tho Bundle Bee, lively
sheet which makes its appearance conn
mencement day and handles the professors
and boys alike. It said petition will be
presented 10 the next meeting Of the board
of trustees asking for authority to limit tho
freedom Of the university press.

emily killed.
