COLLEGE CElEBR ALTON.
tion. Cup Presented to Judge
Weeks.

Weeks.
Enthusiasm was plentiful, and of the
spontaneous and contagious kind, in the
Mccullough Gy nnasium last Friday
evening, when students, faculty and
alumni gathered in force to ceIe
brate the action of the legislature IN
continuing State support to Middlebury
College. The Addison county senators
and representatives had been invited,
in order that the students might have a
chance to say thank you to them, and
none could have had any doubt of the
gratitude.
A chief feature of the evening was
the presentation of large and. d.beautiful
silver loving cup to Speaker Weeks.
1t bore the inscription, '"To Hon. John
E. Weeks, from the Faculty and Stu
dents of Middlebury College, in sin
cere gratitude, April 9, 1915" Judge
weeks responded feelingly, and de-
cared his loyalty to the college and
the satisfaction it had given him to
note the good feeling toward Middle
bury from all parts of the State. He
said that he did not believe any appro-
priation was voted more heartily or
with stronger belief in its worthiness
than that to Middlebury College. He
also said that he felt that now the col
lege was firmly established as one of
the States institutions, and that it
would not be necessary to repeat the
struggles of the past two years.
In closing he handed to President
Thomas, from Governor Gates, the pen
with which the Middebury bill was
signed.
The first speaker was Mr. George
w. Stone of Vergennes, who spoke
both as an alumnus and as a rep
resentative. He told of the hear
ings on the educational bill, at which
Middlebury did not appear to disad-
vantage, and OF his pleasure in opposing
successfully an attempt to make the
college appropriations temporary in
stead of permanent.
Mr.. Abram W. F'oote, representative
from Cornwall testified to the interest
he had always had in Middlebury Col
lege and the satisfaction it had given
him to stand for justice to the institu-
tion as a member of the committee on
appropriations.
/ Senator Carl B. Hinsman of Rutland
was introduced to the audience and
loudly cheered, but asked to be eX-
cused from speaking. Ex-Governor
John A. Mead was called upon and said
that he had followed the work of the
legislature with great interest and be-
lieved Middlebury to-day stood stronger
with the people of Vermont than ever
before.
President Thomas presided at the
meeting. He said in opening that the
action of the legislature marked the
close of an epoch in which it + ad beer
sought to establish State University
in Vermont, but that the attempt haC
failed and the State had declared plain.
ly for the continuance of its historic
and constitutional policy of encourage
ment to all institutions Incorporated foi
the advancement of learning, of which
Middlebury College would be one sc
long as it continued worthy.
The college band furnished music fol
the celebration. The cheering was lee
by George C. Dade, rs. Refreshment:

William Mills.

BELGIUM RELIEF.

An appeal by cable from Belgium
says, CAN Belgium is on ration of ten
ounces of bread per day, rich and poor
alike, when there is that amount of
rations available" The rich, of course,
pay for their portion and the money
goes into the fund of the Relief Com
mission to buy further supplies. We
hear now and then, when the subject of
giving is raised, "Ohl gave for Belgian
relief last autumn" The answer is: The
need is even greater now than 1T was
then The Germans are in some in
stances ploughing fields for the farmers,
but think how many months will pass
before crops sown now will be available,
and under the most prosperous conditions
Belgium has never raised within its own
territory food enough for its population.
Some say the Germans should provide
for the destitution they have caused.
True enough, but they do not and nom
combatants will die daily from want
and exposure unless generous hands
continue to be stretched forth beyond
the sea.
THE TEA.
The ten-cent tea on Monday netted
S13.6l. Those who attended heard an
exceptionally fine program, including
humorous selections read by Miss Sophie
Wilds and Prof. Edward Royce, an ode
read and composed by Miss Suzanne
Throop, beside the beautiful Belgian
lullaby written by hel which was ex-
quisitely sung by Mrs. S. S. Eddy. Mrs.
John NJ Thomas and Mrs. John Wright
poured Mrs. Burrage and Mrs. Fletcher
received. Young ladies from the college
and town served. Great credit is due
to the committeein charge, Mrs. Bryant,
Miss Parker and Mrs. Lambert for a
delightful social occasion.

tions received:

TENNIS CHAMPION IN FORM.
Miss Bjurstedt Wins Two Matches
in Crescent A. C. Tennis Tourr.1

NEW YORK. June 16.-For the first
time in the history of the Crescent
Athletic Club. a woman's invitation
tennis tournament was scheduled on
the club course at Bay Ridge yester-
day. Many of the contestants in the
recent national tournament at Phila-
delphia competed. and a series Of In
teresting competitions was the result
Miss Molla Bjursredt, the national
champion. was again seen to advantage.
and disposed Of Miss H: C.-French in
straight sets. at GO. 81. The ma
tional champion showed a marked su-
periority over her opponent in the first
set. and then appeared to let up In her
play in the second. With the score OF
the second set 6-5, the storm. which
had threatened for some time. broke in
force. and tho players retired from the
courts for an hour. When the contest
ants reappeared tho heavy court ap-
peared to handicap tho Norwegian
player. and it was not until the four
teenth game that she broke through
her opponents service, and then. win
ming her own. captured the set.
Following this success, Miss B1ur-
stedt disposed Of Mrs r. A. Pope in
straight sets at 6-1. g.

as was hoped for. the Tigers are a
mighty hard team to beat at home and
will have at least two easy clubs to
beat when they play in the west, hence
may make further forward strides
against the White Sox-a team which
does not expect another slump. because
it had one early in the season, and a
good ball club never expects to en-
counter two slumps in single season.
1t does not require a long drive to
get a home run on the Polo Grounds,
which accounts for the many circuit
blows which are being made there.
Both left and right field. very close to
the foul lines. are very short, and almost
any sort of a long fly will go into the
seats and net the batter a home run.
This explains the three circuit drives
which Ray Caldwell made consecutive
ly recently. Caldwell is a right field
hitter and Is apt to hit a long fly into
that territory almost any time. Not one
Of his recent home runs was line
drive. but a high fly which fell nito
the right field seats.
In doping the American League race
it would be well not to overlook the
fact that Washington has played about
seven or eight games less than the
leaders. and that it may make up some
of these in the way of victories later
on. Boston, too, has played eight less
games than Detroit and that team
gives promise of being better fortified
later in the season, when these games
must be played off. Detroit and Chicago
have played more games than any of
the other first division teams to date.

But for the benefit of the members
of the local team it can be truthfully
said that such conditions do not exist.
From the start of the season every man
under contract to the Washington club
has given Manager Griffith his best ef-
forts. There has been no shirking of
duty, nor lack of spirit. That is why
the Nationals are playing higher
grade of ball than some of their rivals.
Sam Crawford. Ty Cobb's slugging
partner, is out to break all records for
number of hits made, and, barring ac-
cidents, Is almost sure to surpasS the
marvellous records of Hans Wagner and
Larry Lajoie. Crawford has little
chance to equal the marks made by
Wagner. Lajoie, Cobb. Anson. Kelly.
average over a long stretch of years.
but the Detroit slugger Is likely to reg
lister more hits before he retires than
any player in the game. When Wag-
ner and Lajoie passed the 3.o0o-hit
mark 1t was freely predicted that no
other player would ever reach that to-
tai, because they were unlikely to last
as long as the famous pair.
These were figures that were reckon
ed without Crawford. who now has
has played five years less than either.
Crawford is a player who takes excel
lent care of himself and Is apparently
just as good as, II not better than, he
was several years ago. 1t is not rea-
sonable to suppose that Wagner and
Lajoie will be playing regularly three
more years. and II they average $50
games per season they will be just at
the $500 mark. Crawford has for years
led the American League in hits made.
and is fairly sure to make 200 hits a
season.
The Detroit Tigers are leading the
American League in everything-hit-
fielding
hits-whfch, of course, explains why
the Jennings crew is remaining so near
the top OF the race. Even II the present
eastern trip should not be as brilliant
