 The high school baseball team and friends to the number of 20 went to Storrs last Saturday for a game with the second team of that institution. After she game dilstory action on the part of the transportation department resulted in the loss of the train. The drivers of the teams would neither bring the party tn Stafford nor take them back to the college. This left them stranded 13 miles from home on a Saturday night, with no more trains until Monday morning. It is thought that the delay in starting was planned, and if this is true the joke was very shabby one, ss there were four ladies in the party. Eight of the party started to walk home, seven walked back to the college and the ladies went through on the even- ing train to Willimantio, where an automobile was secured for the return journey. Of the eight who started to walk home, five made the full journey of 13 miles and three walked as far as West Wilmington. where they secured a conveyance. It was after midnight when the last delegation arrived. The oanny drivers of the team for storrs collected 40 cents each way for those who were not members of the ball team. They collected the money for the return trip in advance. The reason that the local people think it was premeditated is that they kept them waiting about half an hour at sk. eh
