Pedestrians and bystanders on North
Main street witnessed a sad fms to
noble sprint yesterday afternoon when a
traveller from the Groton pond region put
on the high speed near Keith avenue and
gave a good imitation of Johnny Hayes
at the Marathon as he closed the distance
between the avenue and Depot square. A
suburban train was just pulling out of
the NJ. & w. r. station when he swung
aboard. just as he stepped to the plat
form string broke somewhere and two
glass containers slid harshly to the
ground. A reddish liquor with a COM
polling odor that permeated the square
for an hour afterward flowed from the
broken bottles, but the traveller did not
tarry to retrieve the broken bundle A
policeman who happened along took
charge of the glassware.
Despite their feeling of citation over
their defeat of Montpelier high school
Saturday, Spauldings football warriors
are not trimming with over confidence
and have settled down to a week of hard
practice, although the next game is not
to be played until Nov. Is, when the elev-
en- meets st. Adams high The team was
given a light practice at the Gospel vii
lage campus last night and there will be
no let-up until the ball is shelved for the
winter. Most of the high school players
plan to go to Mortified Saturday to wit
ness the Norwich.Vermont game. With
a team sadly crippled as a result of Sat
urday's clash with st. Peters A. A. in
Rutland, Coach Kinney at Goddard is
facing the problem of getting his men in
form for tomorrow game with the
Norwich seconds at Narthfield. The
squad will make the trip to Mortified in
automobiles.
Violations of the auto law requiring |
lights on stationary and moving motor |
vehicles after dark have been so frequent |
lately that the police are using unusual |
vigilance in bringing the violators to |
time. Until recently, autoists who are !
accustomed to parking their cars along /
the city streets have observed the law to /
the letter. but a number of eases where /
cars were left in darkness have come un-
der official notice this week. A Corinth |
man who visited the city few days ago
has been asked to come into city court
and last night the numbers of three cars
parked in front of the Barre opera house
were taken down by the police One is
registered from Montpelier, another from
Bradford and the third from Barre.
Grand Juror William Wishart has taken
steps to summon ell three owners to
court and the police say that others will
follow if the law is not observed more
strictly.
A football fan who scanned the returns
If Saturdays prep. school games in yes
.erday's Times takes the sporting de-
to task for stating that Mont
,elier high and Montpelier seminary have
lot met this season. The Times stands
corrected as the Capital city school
cams played scoreless tie few weeks
Igo. The correction changes the COM
,lexion of the returns considerably, as it
caves Montpelier seminary in position
o claim indisputably the championship
IN the strength of its showing to date,
I has gone through the season without r
osing a game and if it succeeds in de- /
eating st. Adams high schoo. friday the !
late will be clean. Coach william L. !
Iaiden, former Spaulding and Univer- t
ity of Vermont football player, has s
wonders with his material at
he seminary this year. Inasmuch as
Iontpelier high had an opportunity to d
efeat the seminary and failed, the pros
ect for a second game is growing more
nd more remote, although it is said that n
he high school is anxious to retrieve its
DOR showing OF the late season by ar {
angling another match with the logical
hampions, the seminary team.
