BANQUET
 GIVEN ID CHASE
Rhodes Scholar Guest at Gather
 ing Of High School Alumni

1 About fifty classmates and alumni
 of High school gathered at the Y, M c. A. last evening to bid farewell to Eugene P. Chase, who is soon to 1 leave for England to exter Oxford, 1 having won a Rhodes scholarship. A banquet was held, following which 1 speeches were delivered.
 Robert Sengle, president of the col 1ege club, introduced w. B. Fay of the High school who was to preside as postmaster at the post prandial exercises. Mr. Sengle thanked the members of the club and alumni who donated so generously towards the fund which is being raised to send a deserving young man to college who cannot otherwise afford to go. MT. Sengle explained that the fund was not merely to be raised this year, but it is the plan of the club to estab- fish the fund as a pernanent insti- tuition. He then turned over the meeting to MT. Fay.
 MT. Fay lived up his reputation of being a jOvial toastmaster and during the evening kept those present in jolly spirits by his facetious remarks
 Secretary c. H. Barnes of the Y. M. c. A. explained how the College club originated. He said that it's fundamental purpose was to encour- age young men to seek an education higher than can be obtained at High school He congratulated MT. Chase upon the great honor that he had won and said his work at college re- fected much credit upon the city of New Britain.
 F611n nto,~ A n W +, burn told of some of the ideals that should be lived up to in life after leaving college, as well as when in college.
 William Buell. of Syracuse Univer- sity made brief speech.
 pr. Adolph Benson, professor of German at Yale University, was the principal speaker of the evening. MT. Benson opened his address by con- graduating MT. Chase The speaker was loudly applauded by those present when he showed the distinction that MT. Chase had gained by saving Every city has it's mayor but not every city has it's Rhodes scholar"
 Dr. Benson explained that for many years there has been a misunderstood ing as to the vocation of a scholar In the past, scholars were thought to be walking eccentricities, he said, and were to be avoided. College men in general always avoided being called sch Olars
 Dr. Benson told of the qualifications that were necessary for Rhodes scholars. He showed that in order to be selected a man must be an all- around student, one who does not seek the path of least resistance. He clearly explained the responsibilities and difficulties that Rhodes scholars meet.
 MT. Chase, the last speaker of the evening, thanked all present. He then compared the English scholar to an American student, telling of the possibilities each has after graduating from a university.

attorneys office. The opinion holds
that defendant cannot be compelled
on cross examination to testify rela.
tive to a statement made out of court
unless 1t was shown that the state
men was made voluntarily.
The Japanese was shot as a result
of quarrel with Wilson. The state
