8 LOCKER CLUBS
GIVE UP BAT TIE
Southern and Bees, Along With
Mystic Ark, Quit Fight-G.
A. C. to Appeal.

Superior Judge John T. Pendleton.
following his recent ruling against the
Knights of the Mystic Ark. today caus-
ed two more locker club cases to be
dismissed and denied an injunction in
the third.
Recognizing the hopelessness of at
tempting to face the court on pleas sim
liar to those made yesterday by the
Mystic Ark. attorneys for the Southern
club and the Order of Bees requested a
dismissal shortly after the trial was
called. Morris Macks, representing the
Georgia Athletic club, making addition
al allegations. went to trial. Judge Pen
dleton denied him the injunction sought
This action means that the Southern
and the Bees, as well as the Mystic
Ark which have been operating under 4
temporary restraining order, can be
closed by the city authorities for doing
business without a permit from council
The jurists decision in the Georgia
Athletic club case viii allow that club Il
breathing spell if its lawyers give no
tice of an appeal.
Not week ago, the supreme court in
a case not unlike the present one, eI-
cept in minor detail, held that Judge
Pendleton did not err in refusing to
grant this same club an injunction.
Lawyers for the club are seeking for
a Federal question, it is said, so that the
cases can be taken to the United States
supreme court. 1t hardly likely that
the Georgia supreme court will be APP
pealed to a second time

A lecture was recently delivered b.

cording to Consular and Trade r.
ports. The lecturer said the problem
~ 20 IND the best mode By which .

surface would not be broken By traf-
nc. q that the transit might be easier
for both passengers and goods, . road
which would form neither puddle
holes nor exude mud from vehicles
and create no dust when the weather
~ dry.
One thing was universally recog-
nifed. that the road OF the future
should DO q truly bound road in which.
whatever kind of stone was used, the
stone should be held together 20 that
II would form . crust. The lecturer
suggested that what he called a ar
pet or an elastic skin should be adopt

The carpet, he thought. should be
made Of bitumipous material mixed
with sand and placed on the roads In
various thicknesses. according to the
nature Of the trafic. II should 90 on

The advantage Of such 4 carpet. it

this carpet for the roads silence the
noise and reduce the shock OF rolling
vehicles. Il was admitted that the or
iginai cost Of . road 90 laid would b
more than that Of . mud bound road.
but spreading the cost over . series
OF years II would probably NOT be 20
great, since the crust Of the road t.
