BURR AND BURTON
WINS OPENING GAME
Excellent Prospects for Successful
Season.

The Burr and Burton basket bail
team defeated the Davey Tree Sur
geons in fast and interesting game,
35 to 25, on Friday evening before one
of the largest crowds ever gathered a,
"a game at the Seminary Gymnasium.
The game was played in twenty min
ute halves which tested well the con
dition of the players. The Burr and
Burton boys gave evidence that they
had profted well by their hard work
and at no time showed signs Of weak
ening. The Tree Surgeons also prov
ed TO be in good condition, owing TO
their hard work but could not over
come the team work and all-around
consistent playing of the school boys.
Both teams are deserving Of great
credit for their clean playing and good
sportsmanship which was highly ap-
preciated by all who saw the game.
These features alone make the game
worth while. "Jim" Burns, former
Burr and Burton star, refereed fine
game, keeping the men busy, allowing
no delays and in all cases enforcing
the rules to the satisfaction and ap-
proval of both teams and spectators.
The whole Burr and Burton team
played consistently, each man con-
tributing his share toward winning
the game and credit also goes to the
second string men who are largely re-
sponsible for the good work of the
team. Richie, Morse, Dustin and
Meyer played exceptionally well for
the Tree Surgeons.
The first inter-scholastic game of |
the season will be played tomorrow
night, Friday, Oct. oath, with the
Bennington High School team at the
Seminary Gymnasium. AS Benning-
ton and Burr and Burton are old
rivals, good game is sure to be play
ed and large attendance expected in

example of what may be expected of
the boys in every game, with steady

CAPT. JAMES N. HALL.
AMERICAN ACE. HERE
Came on Mauritania After
Captivity IN Germany.

Movie men and other publicists that
sought Capt. James Norman Hall Of the
select company OF American aces retired
from the hunt at a late hour last night
convinced that the aviator was holding
out some good stories. They got on
his track. yesterday after he cleared"
through tine port of debarkation at
Hoboken, but they were never quite
able to catch up.
Capt. Hall, whose stories of flying
training and flying experience in the
Atomic Monthly were widely read and
who published a book of military ad-
venture subsequently, arrived in New
York on the transport Mauretania. AL
though pretty nearly everybody else
aboard the Mauretania and aboard the
Leviathan also was interviewed or photo
graphed. Capt Han managed to escape.
He was especially sought because he
had been a prisoner in Germany from
May, 1918, until several weeks after
the armistice was signed. The Germans
got him when his plane was crippled.
he himself wounded and the machine
had been driven down behind the Ger
man lines. At tho time there was a
report that he had been killed. but soon
after his comrades abroad and his ad-
mirers IN this country learned through
Switzerland that he was prisoner. On
January IS, 1919, the War Department
made public the fact that he returned to
France from Germany.
Capt Hall was n member OF the IA
nous Lafayette Escadrille before the
United States spoiled Ludendorff's cal
culations and entered the service of his
own country, with promotion immedi-
ately after our air service got going in
France. He was successful from the
start and very quickly added to the
fame he had acquired under the tri-
color.
Late in April, 1918. just before he
was captured. he divided with Eddie
Rickenbacker the honor OF destroying an
Albatross. 1t was sighted above the
American lines at 6 A. NJ. Hall and
Rickenbacker rose to the prize and
chased the German back over his own
lines, riddling him with machine CUR
bullets and finally sending him earth
ward in a burst of smoke and fame
They were so intent on the Job that they
swooped lower than safety permitted
and German infantrymen nearly got
them. Each gave Gle other credit for
the achievement

COURT RULES p. S. e.
LACKS EQUITY POWER
Justice Merreu Sets Aside
Order by Commission.

Justice Merrell In the Appellate d.
vision of the Supreme Court defined the
powers Of the Public Service Commits
sion yesterday. He said the commission
has no equity jurisdiction and no au-
thority beyond those powers specifically
prescribed by statutes under which 1t
exists.
He sustained a writ OF oertiorari
sued out by the New York Steam Com
pany and set aside an order Of the
Public Service Commission which pro-
vided that a schedule establishing new
should be supplemented by a notinca-
ton that ALI contracts made in con-
forInity with O previous schedule remain
in force at the old rates.
II am Of the opinion" wrote Justice
Nerrell. that even IL the Public Ser
vice Commission possessed the equitable
power which IL assumed to exercise in
this case 1t could not require tho nl-
ing Of a supplemental schedule. the
effect of which would be to charge
q different ratio for like service to one
class of customers than that charged
others.
The duties Of the body are purely
administrative. 1t has no judicial
functions to discharge. 1t may govern
prices to be charged for service rem
dered, but has no power to enforce
its acts or to restrain violations Of the
law. At most It can direct the at
tention of the Supreme Court thereto.
II has no power to impose or collect
fines and IL powerless to discharge the

issued yesterday. led Julius al. Barnes
head Of the Grain Corporation OF the
Food Administration, TO contradict tho
general public impression that there
was an over abundance Of wheat. MI
Barnes declares that as large as the
crop appeared to be at harvest time IL
will prove mo more than sufficient 20
supply our homo needs and the foreign
reuuirments falling on US"
'The estimate of farm reserves
issued to-day indicates that possibly the
earlier estimates OF the total crop were
too large" Mr.. Brown said. This
seems to be confirmed also by the fact
that current farmers markstings
throughout the United States are in
sufficient 6or milling reauirments. and
in almost every section Of the country
urgency of demand for milling wheat
has resulted in prices above the Gov
eminent buying basis.
I'm some varieties and In some 600
tons premiums as high as ten to fifteen
cents above the Government basis have
resulted, and in order to avoid re-
sultant advance in -four price levels, the
grain corporation will In the near
future resell wheat from Its aocun1u-
lated stocks In the United States, al"
though II had been expected that thess
wheat stocks should be retained for
shipment to the Allies and to other
European buyers
During February the total purchases
of the Grain Corporation In all IT'S Of
fees were less than 100000 bushels.
while the milling consumption OF tho
country was over 100000.
"All foreign sales made by the Grain
Corporation have been at prices which
returned cost and expense of carrying
the wheat, and prices made on wheat Of
fered for resale in this manner will also
include cost and accumulated charges
which have followed this wheat since Its
purchase by the Grain Corporation.
The different agencies Of the Grain
Corporation will on March 10 call for
tenders from mills in all sections of the
United States for such supplies as they
wish to draw from accumulated wheat
stocks and thereafter will sell day by
day to the extent Of it's unsold and sur
plus holdings to bona fide millers at such
milling centres as Minneapolis, Duluth.
Kansas CITY, st. Louis, Chicago. For
tunately we have fairly generous stocks
OF wheat suitable for milling. and csn-
siderable relief will be given by these
resales."
