IMPROVEMENTS FOR
UNIVERSITY OF GA.
CONSIDERED ON 1e.
Captain Fred Morris Will Repres
ent This County at Macon
Meeting.

Captain Fred Morris, of Marietta,
will represent Cobb county at the
statewide University Of Georgia CON-
ference at Macon, April 18th. Mere
than 100 Representatives from all
parts of the state will meet with Gov
ernor Dorsey, Chancellor Barrow and
other officials to discuss plans fer
meeting the crisis faced by the Uni
versity.
The enlargement Of the equipment
Of the University Of Georgia has not
kept pace with the growth of the state
high schools. AS a result the Uni
versity has had to turn away many
high school graduates who desired to
go on with their education, and it will
have to turn away hundreds more
every year. Unless the plant and
equipment is increased, work in agri-
culture, science, business, and all 9TH
err departments in which the Univer-
sity trains it's students cannot be
kept up to their present high stand
ards.
"The growth in numbers has
swamped u.s. says Chancellor Bar
row. "The growth in the demands
made for various forms Of education
made necessary by modern condi-
tions has mired us down in the
swamp.
Give thousand Georgia boys and
girls will complete their high school
work this year. A large number of
them should go on to college. We
have not places to lodge and board
them. We have not class rooms in
which to teach them"
The state conference Saturday will
decide on the essential needs of the
University and will discuss plans to
meet those needs. The graduates of
the University are determined that
the young people Of Georgia shall not
be denied the advantages Of the best
education the state can give.
