BOWDO|N SHOWS
INTEREST IN WITT
DAY AT BOSTON
Young Man Who Entered Bow.
doin Last Fall Now Sen
satiOn with Athletics

Brunswick, Me-, May 19.-(SpeciaD.-
Coach Ben Hauser of the Bowdoin base
ball team has recently received a letter
from Boston advising him of preparations
for witt day" to be held at Fenway
park. Boston, on June %. Lawton w.
Witt of the Philadelphia Americans, who
is to be the recipient of the honors upon
that day. entered Bowdoin last fall and
was regularly enrolled in the freshman
class.
Witt is we'll known throughout central
Maine for his star work on the fast
S/owhegan team last summer, and since
being called from college to the Athlet-
les by Connie Mack he has been one of
the big sensations of the baseball world.
Mack has played the redoubtable
Whitley at shortstop on the Philadel-
phia nine and the work of the former
Eowdoin freshman has already made him
one of the mainstays of the team. In a
recent game with the Washington Sena-
tors Witt tielded for 1000 with a total of
10 chances and touched the nvincble
Walter Johnson up for another LOCO in
his stickwork.
The loss of Witt was heavy blow to
the pennant hopes of the Bowdoin team
and the many friends he made during his
stay at college were genuinely sorry to
see him leave.
A number of Bowdon students are
planning to be in Boston on witt day
and TO join with delegations from Win
chendon, Mass "Whiteys" home town;
St. Johnsbury, VT, where Witt attended
school at Goddard seminary; and SHOW
hegan, in making the day one that the
good d-natured young shortstop will re-
member for years.

All indications point to record-oreak-
ing meet on Pratt field, Springfield, Sat
urday, when the finals in the New Eng
land Athletic Association games are
scheduled to come off. Unless the track
is in poor condition from the recent rains
at least four track records should change
hands, while one field event record should
rise notch.
Rice Of Maine may set the mark IN the
100-yard dash below the 10 second level
Saturday. At the Maine intercollegiate
the Orono runner was clocked in 4-5s.,
but owing to a slight wind favoring his
work the time was not allowed to stand
as an official record. In light of his time
of q 2-5s in the Maine meet Rice should
also have an even chance Of at least
equallng the 22s. mark now standing as
the record in the 220-yard dash. Kelly of
Holy Cross. however. is likely to press
the Maine runner strongly.

Records Expected to Fall
at New England Track Meet
Finals Today at Springfield

Riley Of Dartmouth has already done
40 3-5s. in the 40, and with the fast COM
petition that will be afforded him on
Pratt field he, is more than likely to bet
ter the record now held by Lester OF
Williams.
Taber's records in the $50 and the mile
look safe enough at the present time. al
though the fields in both events will 'be
fast ones. The two-mile appears to be in
little danger.
The record in the high hurdles will
probably remain just where it is. but w.
A. Savage of Bowdoin, who travelled the
low bars in "a 2-5s. at the Maine meet,
has a chance of fracturng' the record in
the lows
If Guy Palmer of Maine displays the
form that he did at Brunswick last Satur-
day Maine should have another New
England record to her credit, for the
present association record in the higl!
jump is good inch below Palners jump
at the Maine intercollegiates.

enormous damage and the incalcul- able losses which will ensue from this war, and which it is hardly cred ible could be repaired if every grea nation in the world were drawn into the contest. And do you realize how nearly it has come about that near rly every great nation in the world has been drawn in? The flame has touched even our own continent by drawing in our Canadian neighbors to the north of us; and except for the South American continent there IS not one continent upon the whole surface of the world to which this flame has not spread.
 When l see some of my fellow citizens spread finder where the sparks are falling. I wonder what their ideal of Americanism is. And l dare say, you realize the solemnity Of the feeling with which l come to audiences of my fellow citizens at this time. Do you realize the pc culiar difficulty of the situation in which your executive is placed? You have laid upon me, not by implica- tion but explicitly: it has come to me by means of every voice that has been vocal in the United States: you have laid upon me the double obliga- tion of maintaining the honors of the United States and of maintaining the peace of the United States
 "ls it not conceivable that the two might not become incOmpa tible Is it not conceivable that however great our passion for peace. we would have to subordinate it to our passion
