has been highly successful, and the

GAINESVILLE on Tuesday night, o.,

night, Valdosta Friday, and Americas
Saturday night.
Last week, the performance at Ag-

Time and time again special num-

director of music at the college, spoke
very highly of the work of the Glee
club.
A number Of new features have
been added to strengthen the pro
gram. Chief among these is the solo
of Russell Stokes. Stokes has a Won

discovered that he had a voice while

in his argument, however. He admits
no choice, no right of opinion for the

this line of argument it might be said
that baptism is "a law Of God-we

1t has been said the history of the

riage or violate it and take its con-
sequences. The same is true with
the Sabbath, both are God-given.
Do you blame me then for rails
ing my voice in warning?
How can Sunday golf be stopped.
In just one way-by the directors of
the Golf club. Nobody else has a
voice in the matter. So let's not dodge
the issue-this is where responsible
ty rests. Are these men Christians?
Then they should either vote it out
or vote themselves out. They can't
afford to be particeps criminis in
this matter. I'll make two predic-
tions. Let the Christian people take
this stand and one of twNthings will
happen, either Sunday golf Will be
stopped or the golf organization will
fall through. My second prediction
IS, let it go on and become entrench-
ed and it will breed a thousand at
tendant evils and may get to the
place where you can't stop Sunday
golf or the evils either. Then there
would be many heart aches and much

lO-YEAR SENTENCE FOR
HENDERSON ASSA|LANT

Washington, Feb. 25.-Charles A.
Crock. aged SIS years. who last March
5. shot and wounded former Senator
Charles B. Henderson OF Nevada. to-
day was sentenced to ten years Inn
prisonment by Chief Justice Mccoy
in the District of Columbia supreme
court. An appeal was noted and the
accused was committed to jail in de-
fault Of $4,000 bail.
Senator Henderson was shot while
in the Senate Office building, the bull
let taking effect in his arm. The at
fair was said to have been the result
of a grudge of long standing. Crock
held Senator Henderson responsible
for financial reverses he encountered
in a sheep ranch venture in Nevada
and subsequent inquiry to his sanity.
Crock discharged his attorney at
the trial table to-day and argued n
motion for a new trial, asserting that
his conviction by a jury of an assault
t kill Senator Henderson was illegal.
He accused his lawyer of collision
with the Government prosecutor, de-
clared that Chief of Detectives Grant
had kidnapped him and kept him in
the asylum for thirty-three days.
The accused also charged the chief
justice with bias, asserting that the
court had been influenced by the fact
that Senator Henderson once intro
duced a bill to increase the salary of
the chief justice.
The defense at the trial had been
insanity, but DR.. ID. Percy Hickling,
District of Columbia ~alienist. while
stating that Crock was a paranoiac,
declared him legally responsible for
his acts. Crock had been confined in
an insane asylum in Nevada some
years ago, 1t was testified.
