 Judge Shumway said he would hear the facts in the case at Putnam next Friday. In October, 1913, Rev. Mir. Barratt was called to be pastor of the | church and accepted. He was later given permission to resign. but he de- clined unless he could continue as pas tor for a period of six months, and he continues to hold the office The trustees make the claim that l the action of the pastor has caused loss to the church and that if he does not resign he will ruin the church and do damage to its property that will be ir- reparable and for which no pecuniary 1 adequate compensation could be made.

after, and there is no doubt that there will arise a new school of distance swimmers, pinning their faith in the
 so-called speed strokes. Boy athletes
 nowadays have cast aside the shackles
 of tradition and no longer cling to the
 idea that grandfather's methods could
 not be wrong. They are keen. broad minded and progressive, and they read
 and learn their lessons in the success
 of others. prof1ting thereby. In future
 the coach who tries to persuade his
 young pupil that the modern strokes
 are not suited to marathon racing is
 likely to receive a commiserating smile
 for his trouble
 No more striking proof of the all-
 round value of the trudgeon and crawl
 could be had than the table of per
 formances in the recent swim. It
 shows that under the constant super
 vision of competent and reliable off, cfals of the amateur athletic union,
 users of these strokes negotiated 10,
 15 and up to P miles without suffering
 the least ill., effect. Almost without ex- ception the men left the water com
 paratively fresh and in splendid condi-
 tion- And the same table illustrates graphically the wonderful progress
 made in swimming during the last few years. Eddie Snyder. an imma- ture. inexperienced boy of 13. negotiat-
 ed 19 miles: Fred James, a veteran of 50. having lost the vigor of youth, covered over 21. Both outdid com pletely the best efforts of former
 worlds champions. who in days gone by vainly attempted to make the trip. without mentioning that four hardy swimmers reached the goal, feat
 until last summer thought to be be- yond human possibility.
 What can this mean, if not that the strain has been eliminated from the l swimming stroke: that we have sue ceeded in modelling the propeIling | movements into greater efficiency and | have robbed the recovery ones of their | checking influence? There we have | the explanation Of the sensational work | done in the Tribune marathon swim. | The action of the trudgeon and crawl | is all but effortless, the position of the | body Is comfortable and gnstrained, | and every ounce of applied power is used effectively. There Is no waste of energy. no resisting factor. no stop page between strokes. Theorists and ! students of the science of natation I have for some time teen trying to | convince the average individual that | the modern strokes were the strokes | for him. but 1t needed such a dem | onstration as this to add the wanted | weight to their words There is no | doubling any more.
