BASEBALL BUNTs

Skip" Mccarthy, the Colgate uni
versity catcher who was supposed to
become member of the North Ad-
ans team at the close of the college
year, has hitched up with Hoosick
Falls.
The Twin-State league has been
enlarged by the admission of Green
field and Newport, N. H., and a new
schedule has been arranged which
will open on the 2Sth of the pres
ent month.
Pitcher Wilbur Corey, who began
his professional career with Ben
nington four years ago and who has
been with Wilkebarre for the past
two seasons, has been sold to the
York Pa, club of the Tri-State
league.
Ruiter Of Northampton, who has
been with the Bennington team since
the opening of the season, was re-
leased Saturday night. 1t was the
opinion of Manager Morrissey that
Ruiter was too young for Northern
Tri-State league ball.
DeCora the big pitcher from Sche-
nectady, who was in the box for
Bennington against North Adams yes
terday, was so discouraged with
his showing in the game that he re-
fused outright to consider a proposal
to join the local team. While he
was bumped rather freely and had
two costly errors, Manager Nor
riSSey realizad that the dav was ton
cold to show a fair test of ability
and was ready to give the pitcher a
further trial of a week.

BACCALAU R Fate
BY PRESIDENT
]. N. THOMAS
Head of MiddIebury Addresses
Graduates at No. Bennington
GOLDEN RULE HIS TEXT
Precept That Changes Mans
Character and Tests His
christianity.

Last evening in the Congregation
al church President j. NJ. Thomas of
Middlebury college gave the annual
sermon to the graduating class. He
took for his text the words, Where
fore all things whatsoever ye would
that men should do to you, do yet
even so to them; for this is the law
and the prophets"
DIR. Thomas said in substance:
This is one of the most valuable of
Christ's teachings and has been
adopted in principle by many non
christian nations even before the
words were uttered by Christ. This
Golden Rule is likened to those
chemicals that turn iitmus paper red
or blue, it changes a mans charact-
er and tests his christianity. Confuc-
JUS characterized this doctrine under
one word, Reciprocity.
While the Golden Rule has had
many advocates and teachers,
Christ's Interpretation of it was the
only one that ever made a deep i'm
preston up on the hearts of men.
This teaching has restraining eff
ect upon some mems acts and, also,
positive force upon all who heed
its principle. 1t is the duty OF every
young person just starting out in life
to live up to his best, to seek the
higher level and not be content to
take the lowest that presents itself.
There are many more opportunities
than most people think for lives of
valuable service. 1t is not, however,
until one is prepared for those OPP
portunities that they present them
selves. DR.. Thomas address was
listened to by a large audience and
was pronounced masterpiece.

Captain McRobbie pitched a good
game. Hhis drop ball worked to per-
lection. While he was hit rather
freely he kept the safe swats well
scattered. North Adams lost the
game through an attempt at inside
ball that terminated in a burlesque
in the sixth inning. Connolly open
ed the period with hit through the
diamond but was forced at second
by Prindle. The Bennington left
fielder stole second and, when the
Adams second baseman muffed the
throw from the plate, went on to
third. Captain McRobbie and Tom
my Taguer then held conference
in the middle of the diamond. 1t was
evidently decided that it would be
best to pass Carolan and the Ben
nington first-sacker was given four
balls so wide Of the plate that some
of them nearly got away from the
catcher. Just what kind of pro-
gram has been arranged for the dis
position of Carolan is not known for

started for second McRobbie threw
to first while the bag was uncovered,
Prindle scored and Carolan went to
third. While the Tunnel Diggers
were in state of "rattles." Carolan
stole home.
Bennington made bad start. In
the first two innings through three
errors by Shortstop Conley, North
Adams received gift of three runs.
PENNINGTON went into tha lead I'm the
third but lost it in the fifth. Ben
nington secured two in the sixth.

Bennington came back in the eighth
with trlGie and two singles, good
for pair u runs and the score was
tied.
Both teams were BANKED in the
ninth and tenth, although Connors,
on pass and steal, made second.
In the eleventh North Adams Sc

double play retired the side Pelo-
