Prohibition Moves Amid Gammons Controversy and Memorial Displays
The text reports a Georgia legislature bill to ban football in the state amid protests. It notes a letter from Von Gammon’s mother pleading the death not be used to attack athletics, and references a war memorial plaque at the university. It also mentions Buster Keaton’s illness and a legal notice auction in Alabama with property in Table, Alabama, and a stray car incident in Albuquerque.
