ALBANY MAYOR
IN POLICE ROW
Supposed Friends On Police
Commission Refuse To Fol-
low His Wishes

ALBANY, Jan. 17.-A meeting of
the newy-elected police commission
for Albany Monday failed to smooth
out the difference between tn COM
mission and Mayor H. A. Peacock
that developed at the meeting Satur-
day afternoon when Assistant Chief
w. E. Whiddon and three patrolmen
were displaced The mayor insisted
that Mr.. Whiddon be retained; that
his services are almost invaluable to
Chief R. S. Wallis, who was elected
December 8 and is yet more or less
unfamiliar with the duties of his of
fee. Julian Wallace, a brother of
Commissioner r. A. Wallace, was
elected assistant chief Saturday, but
resigned Monday and r. d. Foxhall
was elected in his place.
Mayor Peacock protested in vain
against this action, not so much, he
said, on account of either Wallace
or Foxhall, but because he was anx-
ious to retain Whiddon. Members
of the police commission were under
stood to be political friends of the
mayor when they were elected at the
annual melting of the city council
last week, but this did not prevent
coming up what seems to be anirrec-
oncilable breach. What further ac-
tion by. either side, if any, will be
taken has not been announced.

SOUTH GEORGIA NORMAL
TO GIVE 4-YEAR COURSE

VALDOSTA, Jan. 17.-From a
two-year course to a full fiedged
four-year college is the progressive
step taken by the trustees of the
South Georgia Normal College. A
meeting of the full membership was
held during the latter part of the
past week, attended by Chancellor
David Barrow, of the State Universe
ty, of which the South Georgia State
Normal College is part. 1t was
decided that as the college had done
such high class work in the two
year course that the state should
place the college in the field for a
larger work, and the faculty was
instructed to prepare at once the
course for bachelors degree. This
will not in any way interfere with the
two-year course work which the coll
lege has already so well established.
