EXTRA SESSION OF
SUPERIOR COURT is
LIKELY THIS MONTH
Unofficial Information Would In.
dictate That Judge Blair Will
Call Special Session

According to unofficial information
from the office of the clerk of court
and other reliable sources an extra
session of Cobb Superior Court will
be called some time this month. No
official statement to this effect has
been issued by Judge Blair, but those
close to him state that the extra ses-
sion is reasonably certain. Authori-
tative notice is expected next week
along with a statement as to the ex-
act date.
Inasmuch as large number of
criminal cases were left undisposed
of from the November and special
December session of the court, it is
generally felt that the calling of an
extra session would be very timely
and eXpedient.
1t is understood that the grand
jury was ordered to return during
the month.

Mariettans Start
New Year OFF Right;
No Arrests So Far

The Marietta citizens who rush
home from their daily toll to spend
a quiet evening before the family
fireside reading the daily papers are
often appalled, at the countless num-
Der of murders, thefts, accidents, and
other horrible events throughout the
country that are recorded in their ia
vorite chronicle of events"
To anyone reading the daily papers
it would appear that the world has
gone absolutely to the bad" But
this is not the case. There still re-
mains one haven of refuge for those
who love peace and tranquility. Ac-
cording to Chief Goodson, of the To-
cal police force, all Mariettans must
have made new year resolutions to
Behave themselves" for the next
twelve months. At any rate no one
has come within reach of the long
arm of the law during the good but
young year of 1924.

DR.. WHITE ACCEPTS
Gainesville CALL,
IS RELIEVED HERE
Has Served First Baptist Church
Six Years. Was Generally
Loved in Marietta

The resignation of Dr. l. A. White
as pastor of the First Baptist church
was accepted by the members of the
church Sunday after he had insisted
for several weeks that he be relieved
to accept call at Gainesville.
DR.. White had served the local
church for the past six years and has
been one of the most successful and
generally loved pastors ever pastor
ing a church here.
1t was with reluctance that his res
ignation was accepted and hundreds
of his friends in all denominations
of the community will regret that he
decided to leave Marietta.
A committee was appointed at the
meeting to draft suitable resolutions
concerning his services here and the
same will be ready for publication
in the papers next week.

traction of the highest type. The

The Gypsy Girls Quintet is an ex-
perienced organization with a pro-
gram of purpose, as well as keen en-

the people of Marietta will respond
and cooperate with them in bringing
something really worth while here.

LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL
And DEMOLAY TEAM
TIE in FIRST GAME
By Raymond Rice

After trailing the Marietta High
school quintet for two periods the
last DeMolay aggregation led by Bill
orowder, it's flash forward, forged
INTO the lead only to be tied by a
beautiful goal shot from beyond the
middle of the court by Joe Fine.
After the extra five minutes had
been played both teams had annexed
TWO points. Fowler for the DeMolay
Team sent one through the loop from
Vhe center of the floor while McCol-
tum and Holmes each shot a foul for
the school boys. AS the DeMolay
Team had game with Gainesville
Tor Wednesday night it was thought
pest not to attempt to play the tie
oH' 80 the game ended 26 to 26.
Orowder was the outstanding star
VI Che entire field. He dropped the
pli through the loop with reckless
abandonment. His speed was daz-
1nng. Fowler, Bishop and Groves for
.ne DeMolays played the best game.
All three boys showed splendid fight
ing spirit. Fowler and Bishop aided
OFowder in his accumulation Of
points with several pretty goals.
flne and Holmes were the out
SANDING stars for the High School.
DoCh boys are fast and extremely &C
Vurate in their shooting.
The few fans who ventured forth
~ the rain to see the game were not
disappointed in the caliber basket
DdH exhibited. The two teams will
'ie up some time in the near future
ana we want to advise everyone
AGAINST missing the game.

ACWORTH A. C. WINS
ROUGH AND TUMBLE
FIGHT FROM LOCALS
Small DeMolay Team Finds Hard
Going Against Acworth Hus-
hes. Score 46 to SO

The DeMolay team journeyed to
Acworth Friday night and met defeat
at the hands of the big Acworth
Athletic Club team by a score of 46
to 33 in one of the toughest games
ever played on the Acworth court.
The DeMolay boys were handi-
capped by the small court and also
by the great advantage in size held
by the Acworth team, but neverthe-
less the Marietta boys put up a game
fight and made a creditable showing.
The Acworth team took advantage of
their superior size and. the unwilling
ness of the referee to call fouls and
succeeded in making a fairly good
football game out of the encounter,
two of the Marietta players being
forced to leave the game on account
of injuries.
The first of the game was fairly
close, with both sides playing good
basketball, but Acworth's advantages
soon began to tell on their smaller
opponents and the score began to
mount, it being "a to II at the end
of the first half. The DeMolay team
staged a slight rally in the last half,
but could not overtake the winners.
For Acworth the work of Patton
at forward was the best, he scoring
large part of his teams points.
Crowder, center, and Benson, for
ward, were the shining lights for the
DeMolays; Benson shooting IL and
Crowder 9 points.

of every Americsa Legion member.
In the fall Of 1918 for practically
three months tie women of the town
met daiIv Or prayer for the success
of The merican son on the front; in
November the Armistice was signed;
many Of our women left their knees
as soon as the boy came home, and in
some instances forgot the ordeal.
This body of women, newly organ
lied, full of vigor, life and yearn-
ing to stand by the soldier-boy in CT
william clothes, is an organization that
the Legion has needed more than the
prayers of mothers, sisters, and wives
in the perilous days of 1918. The
returned soldier needs the aid and as
sistance that the Auxiliary can give,
and it should be privilege held high
by every American woman that she
is permitted to be member of the
Auxiliary. In the years to come when
new generations have sprung up, it
will be with joy and pride that one
can look back and say II was among
the first members Of the Auxiliary"
The women and girls of the town
eligible to membership in the Auxil-
larry are: Mothers, sisters, wives and
grandmothers. It was only at the
last National Convention that a
grandmother was permitted to be-
come a member.
We gave the boys the best that we
had when they were fighting for our
country, our womanhood, and the
principles that we knew to be right;
and now let US rally to them for they

At BROWN s PARK
$4,000 Paid For Property. Present
Athletic Field Will Not
Be Destroyed

At meeting of the Marietta Board
of Education held last Friday the Jo-
seph M. Brown property was selected
as the site for the new high school
building. The property which con-
sists of approximately nine acres is
bounded by VIM street on the east,
Polk street on the north, Cleburne
avenue on the west and Hardee street
on the south. The purchase price
was $4,000.
Besides the allowed named proper
ty Mr.. Brown gave the school board
a small grove just across Polk street
where the children could eat their
lunches in the shade. He also agreed
to widen VIM street and to pave the
sidewalk all the way from WhitIock
Avenue to the school property at his
own expenses
The property purchased by the
board adjoins a five acre plot given
the city several years ago by Mr..
Brown. "After considering several
sites offered the board felt. that this
property was the best suited for our
particular needs" Mr.. John H. Bos-
ton, president of the board, said.
According to Mr.. Boston the type
of building will be selected within
the next two weeks and the architects
will start work Immediately on the
plans. Actual work on the buildings
will not be started for some time yet
it was announced.
Fears that the present ball park
and athletic field will be destroyed
were quieted by an announcement of
the board that the building would be
located in spot that would not in
terfere with the park in the least. 1t
is understood that improvements will
be made on the present stadium.

Sim EDWARDS CARRIES
FIGHT FOR NEW TRIAL
TO COURT OF APPEALS
Files Bill of Exceptions Against
Ruling of Judge Blair. Ask
Review by Appeal Tribunal

The bill of exceptions filed in the
clerks office last Monday by Sim Ed
wards, young Cobb county farmer,
has been forwarded to the Court of
Appeals where the case will be heard.
The bill Of exceptions follows re-
fusal of Judge d. w. Blair to grant
Edwards plea for new trial. The
principal grounds of appeal contained
in the bill, was the contention that
the state had not proved the exis-
tence of conspiracy in the attempt
upon the life of Billiard.
No indication of the time that the
case will be heard has been given out.
