lowing dispatch from New Haven
Conn:
NEW HAVEN. Conn, Feb. A.
Doubt about the desirabiIity of
an Easter trip for the Yale base
ball nine this year has been ex-
pressed by the athletic committee
i'm spite OF the urgent request OF
the student body that such a trip
be allowed as usual.
The athletic committee is in
"lined TO feel that no financial
chances can be taken the coming
season and that, because Easter
trips have usually been financial
failures, the plan might be aban-
dOned this year. The undergrad-
yates are eager FOR permission
for the usual set or games
TO be played in the vicinity
of Washington, Baltimore and
Old Point Comfort, and many
alumni also favor retaining the
custom, which has been continued
for quarter century.
IL is expected that the matter
will come before the conference
of Princeton, Harvard and Vale
athletic representatives in New
York city today, and that a
policy will he afterward an.

SHOT FROM BUSH

MANCHESTER. Ky, Aug. IA
Robert Hensley, one of the leading
citizens of Clay County, was shot and
killed near his home by unknown
persons from ambush.
Mr.. Hensley has long been the re-
cognized leader in the Baker-Howard
feud and was prominent as a Demo-
cratic leader in his section of the
county. He was a nephew OF Geo.
Baker who was killed by ]. ID. How

this killing is the result of his prose-
