WAR SUMMARY.
Crown Primo Rupprecht of Bavaria
became active again Tuesday and made
desperate attempts TO retaEe me gains
made by the British last TIL fsday near
the Ypres-Menin road. in L .ers. His
first assaults enabled his tro. to enter
the British lines at two 3, Field
Marshal IIai-'e men soug ick vail
antly and, edition t. landing
further attacl. ~ the Ger traight-
ened out their line. The efforts
brought nothing to the Germ Do. but adj
ditional casualties. Great artillery activ-
ity is in progress in the sector east
of Ypres.
Northeast of verdun the infantry
activity has slackened. Following their
Intellectual efforts on Monday, the Ger
mans attacked the French near the Bots
LIE Chaume early Tuesday. This attack,
although aided by liquid fire, also was
repulsed. Berlin claims officially to have
taken trenches here on Monday and to
have held them against counter attacks.
On the Aisne front the artillery battle
continues.
There has been no great activity on
the other fronts. In the Trentino in the
region of Monte Nero the Austro-Hun-
garians exploded a mine under the Ital-
ian positions, but the Italian barrage
fire prevented the enemy from making
any gains. The Italians have repulsed
further local attacks on the Bainsizza
plateau northeast of Gorilla. German
efforts to %recapture the new positions
gained by the Russians southeast of Riga
on the Pskoff high road have been
checked by the Russians.
Great Britain and France have for
mally notified the provisional Russian
government that they would not con-
clude a separate peace to the detriment
Of Russia. These assurances were in
reply to reports current in Russia that
Germany was endeavoring to make peace
at the expense Of the new republic.
Latest reports on the air raid on Eng
lond Monday night show Is dead and 10
injured.

Thomas j. Mckenzie Of South Burling-

Judge Stearns in city court Tuesday,
upon his plea of guilty to operating
a motor vehicle at night on Church street
without lights.
Mr.. Mckenzie told the court that he
was unaware Of the fact that his machine
was running without lights at the time
Of his hold-up by an oficer. He thought
that he had inadvertently thrown the
connecting switch when he started the
car. He said that he had run but a few
hundred yards without the lights when
he found himself confronted by the po-
lice.
When he was Intercepted as to how
far he would have continued in this
manner, he said that The Strong theatre
was his destination. He was accompan-
led by another passenger at the time.

EXPECT r CLASS.
Outlook Good for Normal Freshman At
tendance at U. v. NJ.


Two weeks from yesterday. Wednesday.
October 10. the University of Vermont
will open for another year of college. This
bids fair to be one of the most momentous
years in the history Of the institution. 1t
10 to be expected that the attendance will
not be SO large as usual. Yet the deans
OF the various departments are not look
ing for any serious decrease in the num-
Der Of students. A circular letter sent out
by President Benton just after the closing
of college last spring, requesting that the
undergraduates signify whether or not
they expected to return in the fall,
brought answers which showed that
fully 80 per cent. Of them were plan
to return this fall. However, the COL
lege authorities expect th&. the summe
has changed many things for the stu
dents and that a return of Is per cent.
will be a very good average.
As to the entering class for the coming
year. indications point to a very good
number of registrations. The class will
not be as large as last year, but will prob
ably number between $50 and IT'S. There
will be a larger predominence of girls in
the university this year than ever before.
1t is expected that the fact that the uni
versity has such a high rank as a military
institution will draw many to it's doors
this fall. so that the finest type of edu-
Gated young men in that State can be
looked for among the entering class.
The opening exercises will be carried
out as usual this year. The opening ad-
dress was written by President Guy Pot
ter Benton before he left for France. 1t
will be read by Acting President Perkins.
The attempt will be made to keep every
thing moving as usual at the university,
with little divergence from the program
of former years.
CHANGES IN JANITOR STAFF.
Practically an entire change of ~janitors
will be In attendance at the University of
Vermont when college opens two weeks
hence. Tom Fay. the old standby of
the college boys for the past u years, is
no longer a landmark of the college build
tngs, he having taken the janitorship of a
building down town. His position as
janitor Of the gymnasium and the "Old
Mill' will be filled by Julius Edison, who
will keep the gym in order, and p. j.

~janitor Of the Science hall, taking the
place of w. II. Duncan. Edward Shequin

and the presidents house. nlling the posi-
ton formerly held by w. r. Clayland.

the janitorial force who keeps his same

janitor of the Medical College, becomes
acting superintendent Of buildings and
grounds. w. L. Johnson, who has filled the
position Of head ~janitor for the past few
years. is now to act as chief engineer for
the university. No janitor has yet been
appointed for the Medical College.

slightly below the normal number. 1t is
