mission to the Bar, submitted an i'm
portant report. He pointed out that
under existing conditions in Georgia it
is possible for a person to attend law
school nine months, secure a diploma
and then be admitted to the bar with
out examination.
The committee recommended that the
Legislature adopt a bill making it nee
essary for students of a law school to
attend at least two years and obtain
a diploma before being admitted to the
bar, the diploma admitting without
examination. The only change to be
made is that to be admitted to the bar
one must attend law school two years
instead of one. The report was unan-
imously adopted by the convention
without discussion. the understanding
being that the present Legislature will
not be asked to pass the bill. but that
the measure will be presented to the
next General Assembly for considera-
ton.
The unanimity of feeling displayed
on this subject to-day was in striking
contrast to the scene on the convention
floor three or four years ago, when
Judge Emory Speer made his eloquent
defense of law schools.
For "A Court of Appeals.
One of the most important matters
before the convention to-day was the
report of the committee on the estab-
hshment of a court of appeals for the
relief of the Supreme Court, made
through its chairman, Washington
Dessau Of Macon. In the committees
opinion the bill providing for a court
of appeals is growing in favor. The
same committee was continued in Of
fee. The association adopted resolu-
tions by Judge w. r. Hammond, re-
fndorsing earnestly the measure ana
urging the committee to continue IN
its efforts to have it adopted.
Judge Hammond suggested that a
special committee of five be appointed
to take the matter in charge, as the
old committee considered its labors nm
ished, but the committee has done such
good work that the convention insisted
on its continuing to serve.
The association adopted resolutions
thanking Mrs. Cobb, the assistant state
librarian, for her courtesy towards the
Georgia Bar Association. and pratsing
her for the efficient and satisfactory
manner in which she discharged the
duties of her office.
Heard Various Reports.
Judge Joel Branham OF Rome sub
mitted the report for the Committee
on Legal Ethics. Chairman Washing
ton Dessau read report on the Tor
rens system of land titles, which 1t Is
proposed to introduce in Georgia, re-
porting the progress being made upon
the matter. The report Of the Com
mittee on Grievances was read Tor
Chairman r. c. Fouche. who was abb
sent, by Secretary Park. The commit
tee dealt with the matter of a charge
against a prominent lawyer Of the
state, not a member Of the Georgia
Bar Association, made by a member
of the association, and reported that
as the person complained Of was not
a member Of the association 1t had no
report to make. Upon motion Of Judge
Sweat the committee was discharged
and a resolution was adopted declar-
ing that the matter was not within
the jurisdiction Of the association

YALE CROWNS BRILLIANT YEAR IN
ATHLETICS BY AQUATIC VICTORY

protect the course when the wind is
smoother and both crews jumped their
strokes back to thirty-two.
At the two-mile flag Y ale had lead
of twelve seconds, or three good boat
lengths.
Above the navy yard Yale let her
stroke down TO thirty-one, but Har-
ward kept hers at thirty-two.
The Ellis gained just one second over
the next half mile.
Harvard Fights for Lead.
Between the two and one-half mile
and the three-mile flags the New Ha-
ven crew began to do its best to make
lead by five seconds. They jumped
their stroke up to thirty-three and as
Harvard saw Yale's squirt and put hers
up to thirty-four. After this effort
Yale dropped her stroke down to thirty,
where she held it until almost at the
finish, when she again raised it to
thirty-four. Harvard had dropped her
stroke down to thirty-two at the three
and one-half mile flag, after which
she raised it up to thirty-four and then
to thirty-sx.
A Mighty shout for victors.
AS Yale crossed the line fully seven
the trains and on the boats sent up
mighty shout.
The story of the varsity four-oared
race may be briefly summed up by the
fact that Yale took the lead at the
start, was one second ahead at the
first half mile, and at the mile was
leading by five seconds.
Yale Four Led Until Accident Oc-
Cured.
At the mile and half flag the Yale
four-oar was leading by fourteen sec
onds, or six boat lengths. Stuyvesant
Fish, just beyond the mile flag, caught
a crab which shook up the Yale boat
for a few strokes. Yale was not more
than sixteenth of a mile from the
finish when Fish again caught crab
and this time smashed his outrigger.
He tried to row, but he could not and
the Yale shell almost stopped dead.
Harvard. Made a Squirt.
The Harvard coxswain saw Yale's
predicament and called to his crew for
a squirt. The crimson's four, although
very tired, jumped into the fight again.
The Harvard shell literally shot ahead.
The three men in the Yale boat did the
best they possibly could, but they
could not row against four men and
carry IT'S pounds of ballast as well.
Harvard passed Yale and won out by
a length and a half.

COUNTRY NEGRO FLEECED
NEAR UNION STATION.
Told Funny story to Police About
the SNvindIing Game.


the SwindIing Game.
After falling into the hands of the
Philistines, July Houston, colored of
Keller, Ga, called at police head
quarters yesterday morning and told
story of the loss of 50 % that enter
tanned the police for quite while.
1t was the manner in which July told
of the loss of his coin that amused
the police. 1t took him some time TO
tell his tale, and he was not in the
least disconnected at the laughter he
created.
July said he was going out of the
Union Station, when he was met by d
negro who addressed him as brother
and shook hands with him Accord
ing to the country negro, he received
de Master Mason's gript" The
stranger took an interest in July, who
confided that he had come to Savannah
to make several purchases.
Off they went for a walk. and the
city negro pointed out the interesting
places. July was beginning to warm
up to the stranger when a negro just
in front of them picked a pocketbook
from the sidewalk. July's companion
said the man who found the pocket
book had no right to it all and that
they should share by all the laws OF
nature. July couldn't see it lust that
way, but he was willing to take the
money.
OF course the man who made the
ind objected at first, but later agreed
to divide. According to July there
was 500 bill in the pocketbook. He
felt he was doing wrong to take the
money from the man who had found it
but the man with the Master Mason $
grip" had said it was all right, and
the temptation was just a little more
than he could very we'll resist The
man who found the pocketbook went
to a neighboring store to get the money
changed but returned in few min
utes with some information that made
possible the robbing of July.
The stranger announced that the
woman at the store couldn't make the
change, but he could arrange matters
if he had S35. He contributed his share
of that amount the Master Mason"
put in his pile and July was taxed for
50. %. With this pot the strange negro
went back in the direction of the store
About the same time the Master Ma
son had an attack of cramps and
started for a drug store. When he
turned the corner it dawned upon July
that he had been fleeced, but his eff
forts to locate the two men were of
no avail. 1t was then that he went to
the police with his troubles.

UMPIRE TROUBLES
IN CHARLESTON.

President Boyer received a tele-
gram last night from Manager
Ashenback of the Charleston team,
asking that Umpire Quinn be re-
moved. He said he would not be
responsible for the safety of Quinn
in to-day's game.
President Boyer said it was i'm
possible to make a change at this
late hour, and so advised Ashen-
back. He further called the atten-
ton of the Charleston manager to
the constitution, which says that
home managers shall provide ample
police protection for the umpire.
All of the umpires tried in this
league so far have had most of their
troubles in Charleston, and not one
has given satisfaction there. UNI
pire Quinn will officiate in to-day's
game. WEIGH will probably oppose
Childs, and the contest will per-
haps be the most holly contested
of the series.
