Elks Club Faces Locker Room Closure Under New Law
Atlanta clubs plan to discontinue locker rooms and buffet spaces as the new prohibition law takes effect. Several organizations including the Elks lodge, The Theatrical club, Central club, Metropolitan club, and TMA anticipate closures, with some suspending operations while others continue with reduced facilities and no dues increases. The Owls, Moose, and other fraternal groups expect limited impact on core activities, but all face budget adjustments and deferred decisions as members study the changes.

Prohibition Forces Rally in Southern State Campaign
In the 1915 gubernatorial race prohibition became the central issue as Governor Harris faced pressure to include it in an extra session call. Radical prohibition leaders and the central Georgia Anti Saloon League aligned with local committees to press for strict laws, while factions split over appropriations tactics and party support risking delays and higher costs.
