review OF the situation, that 'hs time
has come to declare itself dahpitely
and uneQuivocally in favor OF 4 CON
p1ete separation OF the school for the
deaf from that for the blind.
Resolved 2. That the present school

mediation and education OF the pres
ent number Of deaf children OF school
age In Virginia and TO take cate Of
the normal annual increase in the
number OF deaf pupils for several
years to come, but no more, that in
consequence there must be either such
a separation of the schools, or q very
material enlargement Of the present
plant, the latter alternative being
deemed for good reasons unwise.
Resolved 8. That In view Of ths
greater number OF deaf children to
be educated as compared with the num-
Der of the blind this school shoulc 10
devoted exclusively to the acccrnmo.
dation of deaf children and another
and separate school should be estab-
lished at some central point In the
State for blind children alone
Resolved 4. That a committee Of
this board. of whom the president shall
he a member and OK -ofYiicio chairman,
shall be appointed, whose duty II shall
be to report specially and In detail to
the Governor and General Assembly On
the subject with recommendations.

season the university coach won first
in the 44O and 1O0-yard dashes in the
New England meet. This event is the
great gathering Of schools of the New
England states, which includes every
college and university in that section
with the exception of Yale and Har-
ward. 1t is one o fthe biggest track
and field events in the country. That
same season there was a t~hree.corner-
ed meet between Amherst, Williams
and Wesley, in which Thompson took
second in the 1OO-3ard dash and first
"A the 22O and 44O. O'Neil of viii.
liams was a participant in this meet
and during that time was one of the
best in the Smaller colleges.
Runs Under Handicap.
In the contest of the New England
schools during his sophomore year,
Thompson took first in the 1OO.yard
dash and first in the 22O. During his
senior year he was handicapped by a
bad leg that kept him out Of many of
the meets. He, however, secured
irsts in the 100 and 220 in the dual
meet against. Boston Tech.
With such a man at the. head of
track athletics at the local institution
those who take part in the events of
tina department are assured of coach
ing under a man who is thoroughly
capable. There is no reason why the
high school graduates of this state
should enter other schools to secure
training in track, as they a by com.
ing to their own school trust their de-
velopment to a man who knows be-
cause he has had the experience.

COACH HAS
/. fine RECORD
F. A.. Thompson, Track Man at
University, Is Well Known
Athlete.

Grand Forks, N. D., April S.-F. A.
Thompson, track coach and director
of athletics of the University Of
North Dakota, is a mar that has more
trophies and medals for deeds done on
the athletic tiold than perhaps there
are in the northwest, and they were
secul ed where the competition was
the keenest and athletics are at the
highest standard. Mr.. Thompson was
a Splinter and he has some of his
old time speed left yet, as he gradu-
ated from Amherst in 1904. He has
taken part in some OF the great meets
of the east and competed against
some of the fastest men in colleges
that the east produced during the
four years he was in school.
With victories I'VE such men as
Duffy, the greatest short distance
sprinter of his day, Billy Holland, Bill
ly Eaton, Charley Leonard, Billy
Shick, and others whom he met at
the indoor meets of the Boston Ath-
letic association, the local mar has
been placed among the six fastest
men in the United States during his
career on the cinders.
Defeated Duffy.
The Boston indoor meet is among
the greatest indoor contests of the
country, and is a gathering of the
best amateur talent in the east. Four
of these were attended by teams from
Amherst, each of which Thompson
was a member. He took part In the
invitation 40-yard dash in 1904, which
is a race given by the association in
which it picked the best of the sprint
ers there and puts them in a 40-yard
contest. In the trial heat Thompson
defeated Duffy, but did not take part
in the finals on account of a bad leg
that bothered him all that season., In
the meet of the year previous, ThOmp'
son took second in the 40-yard dash
over the big field. @
His school met Williams twice dur
ing the time lie was in college, de.
feating it both times; Georgetown
once, and Cornell twice. In the
Georgetown meet the relay team Of
which Thompson vas a member, set
a new record.
Among the most important of the
outdoor meets, which do not take in
those with the smaller schools in the
neighborhood Of Amherst and in
which the local man was always win
ner in his events, was tie dual con-
test with Syracuse during his fresh
man year and at which he took Sec
ond place in the 100 and 220 and first
in the 440. That was the year Prin.
stein was in his prime at Syracuse,
the greatest runner taking first in
the two first events and beaten out
in the 40 by Thompson. The same
