New Institutions.

Athletic activities on some OF the
new junior high school grounds have

suit soon. Dick Brewer, hletic direc-
tor of. the junior high schools, an
nounced Saturday. Mr.. Riley at the
Nathaniel Hawthorne School had great
success with his first day last Satur-
day when large number of students
attended. It is the purpose Of the var
iOus directors to furnish clean athletic
activities for the children who other
wise might be running around on the
streets.
The girls are being ia en-, out \
swimming and hiking trips after school
hours and Miss Ruby Cole has organ
lied a class in swimming at the Thomas
Nelson Page School. Other clubs in
tennis. swimming and various sports
will be organized at the di-.ercnt
schools soon.
Every student is being classified ac-
cording TO grade. age. height and
weight TO determine in what group he
belongs for athletic competition. The
work is being done through a card
system by Mr.. Brewer. 1t eliminates
competition between the large and
small students.
As soon as the physicians examining
the grade and grammar school students
are Through, they will give medical
examination to the students of the
junior high schools.
Football is being played in the

SPECTACULAR game Friday from
Southwestern University, 13 to O.
The game was full of thrills, mostly
of the pass variety.
The Aggies' goal was never in
danger. Only once did the Pirates
try for a count. Magee assayed to
place-kick a goal from the 3O-Jard
line and failed.
The first Aggie touchdown came
after Gill had punted to Royal, who
dropped the ball. Bull Johnson
picked il IN and crossed the goal
line. Knickerbocker kicked goal. The
ball remained near the middle of the
field until the end of the half.
Bible sent in his second string men
Mt the beginning of the second half.
They failed once by two yards of max
ing a touchdown. The first string
men went back into the game after
the third quarter and by a series of
passes. the last of which was from
Gill TO Evans for So yards, scored
the final touchdown of the game.
Knickcrbocker missed goal.
A. & VI. didn't have the power and
drive expected. though the weather
was cooler. They were quick to take
advantage Of the breaks, however. The
Aggies' passing game was very pretty,
failing only twice TO gain yardage.
Nelly and Fay Wilson gained at
will through the Pirate line, while
A. x Ms line held against the Pr
rate backs. 1t was the passing game
which gave Bibles men the last touch
down and six of their thirteen first
downs. The Aggies gained 16I yards
on passes. Southwestern Travelled far
enough for two first downs.

LAWFUL WHIPPINGS ENDED
Governor Dissents From Even A
Modification OF Prison Rules

ATLANTA, Feb. Ex-Governor
Thomas W. hardwick has issued a
proclamation abolishing and annull-
ing insofar as the approval of the
governor is required all rules and
regulations of the Prison Commission
authorizing or permitting wardens
or any other officers or agents of the
Prison commission to intlict whip
pings or floggings upon conviets con-
fined in the state penitentiary or on
the changangs of any county in the
state. The text of the proclamation
follows:
"On February 6, 1928, the Prison
commission of Georgia submits to me
the following suggested amendment
to the rules for the government Of
Che inmates of the Georgia peniten-
tiary, to-wit:
1.-The Prison commission having
under advisement an amendment to
their rules, the following amendment
was adopted:

ping shall be administered except at
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1923-02-26

allow the Prison commission Of
Georgia, through its wardens or other
officers, to infiict fogging or whipping
as part Of the prison discipline in
the execution of sentences imposed
for crime, violates not only the spirit
but practically the letter of our Con-
stitutional provision above cited.
Prison or penitentiary discipline
is merely method of securing the
execution Of the sentence of the law,
compliance with which is a neces-
sary part of the sentence.
IF the Constitution forbids the
courts of the state to impose fogging
as punishment for crime, surely it
likewise forbids the officers or agents
of any executive department of the
government from inficting fogging
or whipping as a part, although Incl
dental and not indirect, of the pun
ishment. What the highest courts Of
the state are not permitted by he
Constitution to do, cannot be done by
executive officers. If whipping is
prohibited by law as a direct punish
ment for crime itself, it may not be
inflicted by law as a part of the dis
cipline for breach Of prison or peni-
Tertiary rules, which undoubtedly in
cludes the laws.
I'm other states whose constitu-
tional provisions are similar to those
OF Georgia, it has been held that the
prison authorities cannot lawfully in
fict fogging as a part of prison or
penitentiary discipline.
Being convinced that the above is
the true and correct view of our con-
stitution, and being under oath to
preserve protect and defend that Con-
stjtution, | cannot give my consent to
any rule or regulation of the Prison
Commission of Georgia which author
ICES whipping or Jogging to be admin
istered to the inmates of the Georgia
penitentiary system, and I therefore
dissent from Rule II or any modifi-
cation thereof, so far as the same
authorizes or permits the wardens or
any other officers agents or servants
of the Prison Commission of Georgia
to infict whipping or fogging upon
any convict confined in the peniten-
tiary of the state or changing of any
county of the state, and all rules and
