The Mortified Hotel Situation.

The News does not speak officially
but we understand progress is being made
on the local hotel situation. A meeting
is called for tomorrow evening at Nisa-
tin club of the signers of the incorpora-
tion papers of the Mortified Hotel Co.,
incorporated. Those who are not on
the paper, but are interested, are asked
to be on hand. The meeting is called
for the purpose of a permanent organiza-
ton.
In James McMann's show window
may be seen the hotel as it would look
on the Gilbert Andrews lot on Main
street. The drawing was made by J..
H. Mcdowell of Burlington, man of
large experience in such matters. There
are no strings to this. He did the work
with the distinct understanding that it
in no way obligated the Hotel company
or any individual. We think all viii
agree it is fine looking building.
We have it first hand that Mr. An
drews has offered his property to the
Hotel company on what is considered
very advantageous terms, and has agreed
in writing to this effect, the corporation
having had it under Amusement for some
little time.
We are able to tell our readers that a
New York hotel man, who is connected
with company running chain of no
tells, and vouched for by the National
Hotel association, is ready to take over
The property on 10 per cent. of the cost

S very anxious to be interested in it, one
hat we all know. For obvious reasons
We cannot give his name. But we are
.elling you he is a good one.
The News told its readers some time
go things were progressing on the hotel
natter. II looks as though this was
oming along in good shape. A News
representative has gone over the plans
With Mr.. Mcdowell, and it is hoped he
will be at this meeting, that all mayl

NO REORGANIZATION.
For Physicians, Nationally Registered,
Who Wish to Practice in Vermont

Burlington, July 1.-THE state board
OF medical registration, at its semi an
nual meeting in the Van Ness last night,
voted to accept the license of the nation
al medical licensing board. No candidate
hereafter who wants TO practice in Yer
mont need be re- examined if he has the
national boards license, which is recog
nized by the state boards of several com
monwealths. The license does away with
the necessity of reciprocity between
states which accept it in lieu of their
own license, so far as candidates who
possess it are concerned. The national
board is purely voluntary, and consists
OF officers of the United States naval re-
serve and the army, representatives OF
the American Medical association, etc.
Candidates having the national boards
license will have to pay the usual fee.
The license is not granted except after
examination and presentation OF prop
er credentials. The state board of Yer
mont does not admit to practice the
graduates of G grade medical colleges.
The state board accepts the ratings of
the council on education of the American
Medical association, and hence automati-
cally approves of the new requirements
of candidates for the NJ. d. in grade A
medical colleges, of which the state uni
yersity college of medicine is one.
The board discussed act l9l of the
last legislature, requiring practitioners
Of chiropody to be licensed on and after
January |, 1918. 1t decided not to hold
special examination for chirododists tnot
except on the clinical side,
but to leaves to the particular member |
examining the qualifications required in
chemistry, or whatever the particular
subject may be.

TALK OF THE TOWN

"The Girl in the Checkered Coat" at
the Bijou to-day.-adv.
Regular meeting of Barre lodge, New
England Order OF Protection, tonight.
There is a possibility that some of the
hay in the hill town farms may not be
cut this year, because of the scarcity of
labor Haying is well under way, albeit
the present week has not been wholly IA
vorable to haymakers, and the good start
made in the days Immediately following
the Fourth may not count advantageous
ly if cloudy weather and the constant
threat of rain continues. But the most
trying problem has to do with help, and
farmers who are ready to pay able men
$3.50 per day are not getting the assist
anee desired.
Chairman George n. Tilden of the
Washington county registration board
has received from Provost Marshal Gen.
eral Crowder at Washington, ID. c., the
second set of rules and regulations TO be
used in compliance with the selective
service law. The pamphlet tells in a
concise way of the procedure to be fol-
lowed by the registration board once the
selections begin, but it is intimated that
rules relating to the time and method of
drawing the names will be included in
third installment of the pamphlet publ
cations. Returns for the Washington
county registration we're in the mail last
Friday and on their way to the national
capital, and it was reported that all of
the Vermont boards had reported by
Monday. Other states, however, have
not completed their reports, and there is
little probability that the drawing Of
names will begin this week. All Wash.
ington county names and the serial num-
bers are posted in the office of the coun-
ty clerk at the capital.

QUITS PEACE LEAGUE
Too Warlike and Seeks to Crush Ger
many, Gardiner Asserts.

New York, Dec. 11.-Lack of SYM
pathy with the war policy of the
League to Enforce Peace, of which
former President w. H. Taft is pres
ident, has caused Robert H. Gardiner
of Gardiner, Me-, to resign as state
chairman of the Maine branch of the
organization, it was announced today.
In a letter accepting Mr.. Gardeners
resignation, VIM. E. Short, secretary
of the league, wrote:
1.-The league has so often both de-
clared and demonstrated that it is not
a paciffst organization that we are
somewhat surprised that one of our
state chairmen should only now have
discovered the fact
Cites Lansdowne Letter.
Mr.. Gardiner, in his letter, charged
that the league Seems to have now
no policy except to join officially in
the effort to crush Germany. 1t may
be that it is necessary that Germany
should be crushed. but 1 cannot see
it that any reason why the league
should abandon it's original object
THE recent appeal of Lord Lans-
downe, whether it succeeds or fails is
one example of what the league might
have done in an effort to remain true
to it's original principles
Secretary Short, in his letter, said
the league does not share with Lord
Lansdowne's views. I'VE feel bound
on the contrary" he wrote, ito use
our entire influence against the Ger
man scheme for a premature peace,
believing that peace made with an
unrepentant Germany would be per-
manently fatal to the worlds liberties
and tranquility

League President In

He and Hermann Fight 1t Out
Today in N. Y.

New York, Dec. 11.-Who's who in
the National league probably will be
decided TODAY. At least some prog
ress in that direction will be made
when Garry Hermann, chairman of
the national commission and John K.

league begin exchanging glares across

called bad taste enought to call JOINT

club owners, to follow annual meet

should have something to say about 1t
Tener Makes Threats.
There have been rumors that Tener
would declare to the world his lnten-
tion of leaving baseball unless Garry
talking contest. If he does that,
is believed Hermann will back down
and take next best. Tener has shown
himself to be a most powerful figure
in baseball. He said last summer he
would not be a candidate for re-
election but a short time later the
league magnates unanimously request
ed him to again accept the presl-
dency and Tener said he would. So
far as is known, that still is his in
tention.
1t has been an accepted fact that
the procedure would be only a mat
ter of form, with congratulations al
ready prepared for Tener. However,
disquieting rumors were bandying

FULTON WINS AGAIN
Minnesota Southpaw Knocks Out
Perky Flynn in Columbus Bout.

Columbus, OhioA Dec. 11.-With a
short left jab, flush to the point of
the jaw, Fred Fulton, Rochester.
Mimi, heavyweight, knocked out
Porky Flynn, of Boston. after two
minutes and eighteen seconds of fight
ing in the second round of what was
to have been a twelve-round fight
here.
Fulton was on his man from the
start, using short blows to the body,
while Flynn endeavored to cover up.
In the opening round Fulton landed
hard with his left hand and Flynn
seemed dazed. Several times he was
knocked against the ropes so hard that
he had to be helped off. The end
came after Fulton rushed his man
around the ring in the second. Flynn
missed long swings repeatedly. and did
not land half a dozen blows. After
rushing his man from neutral
corner to his own, Fulton caught
Flynn squarely on the jaw with a hard
smash that sent Flynn to the ropes
1t was the third meeting between
the two. Fulton said after the fight
that if Jesse Willard, present heavy
weight title holder, continued to ig-
more this challenge after December
20, he would claim the title and would
be willing to meet all corners.

same great player this year as in

position by many critics, but on ac-
count of the fact that he has not had
the experience of Oliphant and Har-
ley, we have placed him on the sec

is one of the greatest backs ever de-
Veloped in the South, and in another
year, if he is not taken into the ma
uonal army, he will no doubt earn
his All-American laurels.
1ngraham, of Coach Gilmour Dobie's
successful Navy eleven, is awarded
the other halfback position on the

field men of the season. His total
