GEORGETOWN QU|NT
New Workers Put Up Better
Exhibition of Basket Ball
Than Hi|Itoppers.

The basket ball game at the Arcade last
night, between Georgetown and New
York University. was rather poor ex-
hibition of the indoor sport The score
of % to IL hardly shows the difference
between the two teams.
The wretched condition of the George
town team was in the main responsible
for the number of points rolled up
against it. Especially was this notice.
able during the first half when several
old men, who have not played before this
year, started the contest. At the Begin
ming of the second half several substitu-
tons were made by Coach Joyce, with the
result that the game was very closely
contested in that period. the Blue and
Gray scoring II points against IL by It's
opponent. The pace set at the beginning
of the game was too hot for Georgetown,
and the northerners soon rolled up IL
points against for the hilltoppers.
The New York five was much heavier
than the local aggregation and showed
more stamina. and while it was little
random in it's play once in a while. the
exhibition given by it was fairly good
one. The Gothamites goal shooting was
very accurate, and so was their passing.
The work of Streussend was the individ-
ual feature of the evening. The New
York was everywhere on the floor and
did some mighty accurate passing. His
throwing of goals was very good, scoring
sixteen points for his team.
Cogan and Schlosser did the best work
for Georgetown. both of them playing
great ball at different times. Cogan shot
the most sensational goal of the evening
near the end of the las; half. when he
stood off to the side of the basket in the
corner of the court and Gagged the ball.
Heiskell and Waldron did some good work
at times.
The crowd against Georgetown
from the start and when a Blue and Gray
player would foul there were numerous
misses from all parts of the hall. This
was rather unjust as there was just as
much rough work done by one side as the
other. The game was not very clean
affair anyway, there being numerous in
stances of tripping and striking with the
palm of the hand

to disclose the causes for it. With all
due Difference to the pulpit, we suggest
that one Of the best preachments
against tuberculosis viii be a practical
demonstration right in church, by giving
the church editice thorough airing that
day, if not again during the course OF
the year. Fresh smelling air in a church
auditorium is one of the inviting things
in church service, and, again, few
things tend TO drive people away more
effectively than close, ill-smelling, sus-
pieious atmosphere, which has been al
lowed to stand from one weeks end to
another. 1t ought to be a regulation
Of every church that its ianitor or sex
ton, after each service, should open the
doors and windows; moreover, that be-
fore each service he should do likewie.
1t is simple precaution, although it
may cost little more for heat during
the winter months, and it would be of
value to the people who are
wont to gather for the service. Also it
might serve as an invitation to many
people.
Therefore on April 80, if not before,
let every preacher urge the adoption of
this airing habit; and then let him
preach all kinds OF denunciation of the
white plague while encouraging his
hearers to exercise caution in their man
ner Of living. First, the practical dem.
of the value of pure, fresh
air, and then the theory of it from
the mouth of the preacher. The two
might well 60 hand in hand on frequent
Sundays all through the year.

A RAILROADS. ALLEeED THREAr.

The allegation that member Of the
Vermont Senate was threatened with
jeopardy OF his interests, unless he
should vote in favor of the Boston &
Maine interests at Brattleboro, ought
to be investigated and proved either ae-
,urate or false. If the state of Vermont
has got to the point where loss of indi-
vidual welfare can be used as a club
In matters Of great public Importance,
It is time for the Vermont Legislature to
issue declaration of independence from
railroad influence. There is, of course,
the possibility that the story was start
I'd by other railroad interests as back.
Ere on a rival; and that, too, ought to
be brought to light. Therefore, the
senator, who is said to have been threat
,ned by persons working in the interests
sf the Boston & Maine railroad, owes
It to his oath Of office to conceal nothing
regarding the alleged threat Of loss Of
nterets.

MONTPELIER SEMINARY.
Great Interest Shown Yesterday In Day
of PRAYER.


The day Of prcyer for schools and
colleges was most proftably observed
at the seminary yesterday morning by
a two hour service I'M the chapel. The
management Of the service was intrust-
cd to the preceptress, Miss II. G. Boy
den, and to the cabinet OF the Y. w. G.
A., and the program that they turned
out was most varied and interesting
one. The program was in the hands of
the students, and after the preliminaries
the service was thrown over to brief
prayers and testimony and the students
followed each other in rapid succession,
some of the time two standing on their
fleet at the same time, until the allotted
two hours was consumed. Never in late
years has there been such manifesto
tion Of Christian spirit as was shown
yesterday morning by large majority
Of the students during that two hours.
The music was Of a high order. The
musical numbers were sprinkled through
the program as follows; Prelude, son

Vermont as a Summer Resort.

The project to develop this region as
tourist mecca is plainly appealing TO
our transportation lines. Many rail-
roads have to build up resorts out of
practically nothing at great expense. In
the Champlain valley, "the Switzerland
of America, nature has painted on so
broad canvas with so lavish hand
that our railroads have simply to arrange
to get people here and help to see that
they are taken care of once here. The
Rutland News in speaking of the out
look for the present season says
"Ihe Rutland railroad officials propose
TO do everything possible this year to
improve the train service in the interests
of the tourist traffic. With that end in
view, conference of the officials with a
special committee of the Burlington Com,
mercial club was held on Saturday in
Burlington to discuss the entire subject.
As stated by Claire Hartigan, general
passenger agent, the New York Central
system is anxious to take every meas.
ure TO cooperate with the people of
Vermont in making the state summer
resort. 1t goes without saying that eY.
cry facility will be afforded by the rail
road to this end"
The announcement that the Vermont
Fish and Game league viii hold its an.
nual banquet in Burlington the coming
season is but one illustration OF what
can be done here if we set out. There is
practically no limit to the meetings of
national bodies and New England gath.
erings that can be held here, as shown
by the willingness of the National Bar
association in former season to come
to Burlington.
Moreover, the time is not far distant
when the shores of Lake Champlain will
TEEN with summer residents. Cottages
built to rent to summer visitors were
asserted by prominent visitor last year
to be one of the chief needs of Lake
Champlain, and he declared that a host
of well-to-do people from the larger cit.
les, who do not want to be bothered
with building summer places, would
gladly pay for the use of eheaply con
strlcted but neat summer cottages, what
we would naturally expect to receive as
rental for a substantial dwelling for the
entire year. We believe there is a grand
opportunity for development in this d.
rection.
In the meantime, do not forget that
the railroads are becoming aroused to
the promising field afforded by our noun
tains and the Champlain region for tour
list traffic Burlington Free Press.
