PUTNAM, CONN. FRIDAY. MARCH ? 1917
EDWIN GOULD, JR.,
 KILLED
Gun Went Off While Punching at Coon
Was Student at Pomfret School and Ran
 Away

Edwin Gould, Jr P, at one time a student at Pomfret School, was acci. dentally killed near Brunswick, Ga., last Saturday night while out hunting coons with a party of friends. While punching at coon with his gun, which he held by the muzzle, the gun was discharged and the charge entered Gould's body and he died within ten minutes.
 The young man was the son of Mir. and Mrs. Edwin Gould and had he lived would have fallen heir to the vast wealth of his father estimated at con- siderahly over s30,000, ,0o0 He was grandson of the late Jay Gould.
 Young Gould attended the Pomfret school and the story is told of how, after short period at the school, he decided to hike back to New York and his mother.
 Word of his disappearance quickly, went forth, and was telegraphed to his parents. For three days his frantic mother sat beside the telephone at her mansion at Ardesly on.lne Hudson, waiting for some word from the search CTS for her penniless, yet wealthy, son. MT. Gould headed posse of automo- bile searchers, who honeycombed the countryside for miles adjacent to the Pomfret school. Inquiries were made al every hamlet and farmhouse but no one had seen the missing youth.
 On Sunday, midnight, May %, the lad dragged himself into New Britain, 55 miles from the commencement of his journey. He landed in front of bakeshop window, yearning for some- thing to eat. A policeman approached him and asked him why he was abroad at such a late hour.
 "I am Edwin Gould, Jr., son of Edwin Gould of New York, and 1 am grandson of Jay Gould" the lad proudly told the officer, and threw back his handsome young head crown ed with m ASS of wavy hair. The po- licesnan eyed him symf aneissally for moment and then told the dust. covered boy:
 "I am the king of England, want to come to the royal palace?p Alter some more discussion the ofr ] ficer aided the boy, who was loud in his complaints of his hurting feet, to the police station.
 They didn't believe him in the police station when he told them his father "could buy out this town of yours, but l haven't got cent"
 l "Weh, anyway, l am hungry. am not a bum; please give me some- thing to eat and place to ,sleep," he pleaded, disgusled with the policemen. The police captain sent out and pur- chased his food. The lads appetite astonished the policemen and they sent out for more. Finally he nodded | of to sleep and stayed at the station 1 house all night. In the meantime his story had been verified and his family l was notified. The next morning he 1 was sent to his father, who was wait | ing for him at Hartford. Father and sor talked the matter over while be- | hind closed doors and then Mir. Gould l emerged smiling.
 "There was nothing to it; Eddie was just walking to meet me and we missed each other,n the elder Gould said And back to school, to complete his term, the scion of wealth was es- nnrfad hu his naIent.

The board at yesterdays meeting de
cided after a good deal OF discussion not
to send out any invitations until afer an
other meeting. which will be held here
about a month hence. The question Of
cutting down the distance Of the varsity
race from four to three miles also was
talked over. but it was thought better TO
get in touch with the several college au-
thorities before taking action in this i'm
portant matter. However. it was evil
dent that a reduction OF the distance OF
the race was favorably looked upon, al
though 1t was stated that # would open
the field to other colleges where four
mile races are not permitted.
1t was said that the cutting down OF
the varsity race to the shorter distance
would open the way for Princeton, An
napohs, Wisconsin and other colleges OF
this type which during the season hold
dual races at two miles
Since the organization Of the associa-
tion, in 1885, all the varsity races have
been rowed over a four-ulile course. ex-

The Gallaudet Reserves bowed in sub
mission to the superior teamwork OF the
Army and Navy Prep quintet yesterday
afternoon in the latters gymnasium, the
final score being 36 to 10. The defense de-

strong to be penetrated, but two goals

Ceated FIVE.
At the outset, the game looked rather
doubtful, but after the first period the
Props gradually drew away, and there
after did not have to extend themselves.
In the closing minutes the second squad
was sent in and performed creditably.
Cassel and Baker contributed heavily to-
ward their teams victory, the former
locating the net on six occasions in ad-

iftecn-foot mark, and the latter finding
the basket for a total OF ten points.

ed their heavy opponents in every angle
of the game, and had the Stenographers
at their mercy all the way. After the
first half was over the Business quint was
successful in caging three baskets while
Western was shining with five.
This half ending IA to with the large
end of the score in favor of Western.
In the second half the Westerners
came back with the same old confidence,
and were able to cage the same number
as in the first half, but seemed to fall
by the wayside in tossing from the foul
circle. In two attempts Johnstone miss
ed both, while w. Heron failed to reg
lister his one chance.
Buck" Wise, who did the foul shoot
ing for the Business team. had the mar
gin on his opponents basket shooters,
getting two out of six attempts.
The short passing Of Western was the
best seen So far in the series, and their
guarding was so close that Buck Wise
for the first time since he has represent
ed the Stenographers on the floor failed
to cage the ball from midcourt, being
guarded closely at all times by Davidson.

opponents, but could only pick up on the
lead which Western gained In the early
stages of the game.
Western was the aggressor throughout
the game and made some successful
shots into the mesh from long angles.
The Orange and Blue quint seemed to
lack the pep" all through the game,
often letting their opponents shoot with
out hindrance. While their own goal
shooting was poor. they often missed
easy shots during the game
Business lack OF pep" was shown
when Mcdonald shot the ball into the
wrong basket. and scored two points
against his own team.
Johnny" Johnstone was easily the fea-
ture OF the afternoons play, his passing
was the one best bet in his teams VIC
tory, while he also Gagged two baskets
from the floor.
The work OF R. Wise and Carl GIessner
was the best for the Orange and Blue
team, the former scoring eight of his
teams points. Lineup and summary.
