WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE
TRY 1T
By John Rodemeyer


OH, SAY, can you sing from the start
to the end,
What so proudly you stand for when
orchestras play it.
When the whole congregation, in voices
that blend,
Strike up the grand hymn, and then
torture and slay it?
How they below and shout when
they're first starting out,
But "the dawn's early light" finds
them foundering about,
IT'S "The Star Spangled Banner
they're trying to sing,
But they don't know the words OF
the precious old thing
Harkl The "twilight's last cleaning
has some of them stopped,
But the valiant survivors press for
ward serenely
To "the ramparts we watched" where
some others are dropped
And the loss of the leaders is mani
fest keenly.
Then "the rockets red glare" gives
the bravest a scare,
And there's few left to face the
bombs bursting in air.
Tis thin line of heroes that manage
to save
The last Of the verse and "the home
Of the brave"

BASEBALL PRACTICE
BEGINS APRIL 1

A recent issue of the University OF
Vermont "Cynic' announces the fact
that Simeon A. ('Simmie") Murch,
former athletic head at Middlebury has
been released from his duties as Knights
of Columbus secretary in one OF the
Massachusetts, environments and has
been engaged as baseball coach by the
university for the coming season. I'm
der his tutelage the Green team recent
ly strengthened by the return of "Ern-
lie" Palmer, the star twirler, should de-
velop into a smooth working nine in
time for the game here on May 3, dur
ing Junior Week.
! Outdoor practice for the Middlebury
squad will commence in earnest immed-
lately after the beginning OF the Spring
term and will be under the personal
supervision of "Pat" Keefe, the newly
engaged coach, who will report April l.
Already several candidates have been
working out in the gymnasium under
the direction of Coach Brown indicat-
ing that there will be no scarcity of men
when actual training commences.
The much-hoped for return Of cake"
DEUEL. the varsity's sensational back
stop in 1917 is not probable as he has
not as yet been able to secure his re-
lease from the U. S. Army Coach
Keefe, however, should have little dill
fculty in picking a fast team from
what appears to be wealth OF mater
ial For the pitching staff he will
probably rely upon Elmer, who dis
played a lot OF ability in the class
games last spring and Hulihan who
comes to Middlebury with the reputa-
ton of being the best high school pitch
er in the state Timberman of the
freshman class who has played ball for
the past few seasons in his home state,
New Jersey, as well as Myers from
Mineville, N Y, will also be numbered
among the candidates for this years
varsity Others who are expected to
report at the first practice next month
include Bower, the only member of the
II varsity now in college, HolbrooK,
Jenne, S. Ross, Mead, L. Brown, H.
Brown and Lamere.
/ Manager Douglas has already COM
pleted arrangements for twelve games
and is negotiating for four or five more.
The schedule at present includes sew
eral two and three-day trips in south
ern New England and there is some
possibility of one taking in the Maine
colleges The first game, as the sched-
ule now stands, is with Trinity Col
lege at Hartford, Conn, on April g.
but in all probabilities this will be
preceded by one or more other dates,

Weather Reports Are
Important In Flights
Across The Atlantic

Washington. D. c.. June 16.-Re-
calling it's part in the historic and sue
cessful transatlantic flight by an
American seaplane, the weather bu-
reau Of the United States department
of agriculture reiterates it's belief that
not until improvements in air craft
nave rendered them more independ-
ent of weather conditions than they
now are, will ~trans-oceanic flying be
at all practicable-at any rate, on
anything like a regular schedule. The
bureau meteorologists. however, ex-
press little doubt that such improve
ments will be made. n that within
a few years flying across the seas will
no longer be looked pon as an ad-
venture, but rather as a necessary fea-
ture of the worlds daily routine.
Weather reports, since the trans
Atlantic flight was made. show thai
at no time since have conditions been
SO favorable as when the NC planes
left Newfoundland. In general, ac-
cording to the meteorolosists, occa-
sions are rare on which ideal condi-
tons would be experienced over sa
long a course as that upon which the
navy filters set out.
The weather bureau actively Coop
Grated. with the United States navy in
Atlantic ocean in seaplanes. Arrange
ments were made for the receipt Of
meteorological observations from Eu-
rope n the Azores. and. in addition,
regular observations were made on
ships sea, under the direction of the
naval meteorological service. All of
these observations. together with
States and Canada, were reported by
radio four times daily to the central
Office OF the weather bureau at Wash
lngton. d. c. and to the base ship
Aroostook at Trepassey. Newfound-
land. At the latter place these re-
ports were charted and studied by a
representative of the weather bureau
teorological service. and statements,
based upon this study and indicating
III current and probable future con-
dittons. were given to the command
ers of the seaplanes.
On the historic 18th OF May; these
statements showed that conditions for
the flight from Newfoundland to the
Azores, although not perfect, were
the most favorable theyrhad' yet been,
and Commander Towers was accord
inEly advised to have everything ready
for the start. providing the forecast
from washington was favorable.
About an hour later this forecast was
flight be made that day. but pointed
out, a. did the statement made at
Trepassey. that cloudiness would be
encountered near the Azores. The
Trepassey statement included a table
showing the wind assistance that
would probably be received at sue
cessive points along the route. Az
