IzzIE JINx AND GERTIE GLOOM
Have Almost Got Strange Hold on
Goddard Football Team.

lizzie A. Jinx and Gertrude Gloom
are still romping through the ranks Of
Joe Leahey's football squad and over
the gridiron of Goddard seminary, the
latest accomplishment of the pair be-
| ing the cancellation by the manage.

which was to be played in Burlington

ond string team and, for no other rea.
son, was the game cancelled. lizzie went
further on, whispering in the ears OF
John Miller, inducing him to return
to Brockton high school in Brockton,
Mass, where he was a student for
three years Miller has practically de-
cided to do so, consequently Goddard
loses a star halfback, drop kicker and
punter.
Most OF the squad have regained
their status and eligibility to play and
were disappointed to learn of the can
collation.. The current rumors crculat-
ing throughout the city which state
that Spaulding high and Goddard SEM
inary's football teams will meet this
season, seem to be without authority
and there appears little possibility for
these school teams to clash. Since
Spaulding plays St. Johnsbury acade-
my in st. Johnsbury Saturday, the
only football game in Barre will be
the Legion Fort Ethan Allen game at
Lincoln campus. Here, it is expected,
the equal to college football will be
displayed. 1t is known that the teams
played nearly an hour about two
weeks ago, the fort team winning 60
and, since then the Legion has strength
ened its ranks so there is a likelihood
that the soldiers will be defeated This is
the first local game, aside from the
Spaulding game, the Legion has played,
so every member of the Legion, as
we'll as outside supporters, are prepar
ing to give post No. 10 100 per cent
backing with hopes OF seeing 100 per
cent game.

SUBWAY VIA CANAL BED
AKRON TO wADSWORTH

Rapid subway passenger service be-
tween Akron and Wadsworth through
large tubes laid in the present bed
Of the Ohio canal may be a reality
within the next year if the plans OF
the city property committee Of the
council are carried out, according TO
the Akron con-Journal.
A bill providing that the state give !
the city Of Akron the permanent use
of the canal bed from the central parl
of the city to the south line of the
county is now in the hands of the
committee, says the Akron newspaper,
and it will be introduced at the COM
ing meeting of the legislature. In
the event that the state acts favor
ably on the proposition, the city will
endeavor to let a franchise for subway
service as far south as Wadsworth,
members of the council committee say.
The proposition of converting the
bed of the Ohio canal into base for
a subway was brought to the attention
of the Akron city council nearly
year ago. At that time it was refer
red to the city property committee,
with instructions that bill for the
state legislature be prepared. The
bill has now been drawn, and will be
submitted to the city council within
the next two weeks for their approval,
members of the committee say.
Members of the city property COM
mittee of the city council say that
the use of the canal bed will probably
}, be granted to the city, as a similar
request was granted recently to the
city of Cincinnati by the state legisia-
ture. All legislation should be COM
pleted by the state before spring with
the letting of franchise for the build
ing OF the subway some time next
: summer, the committeeman say.
. Commenting on the matter the
Wadsworth Banner-Press wonders
how subway following the bed of the
Ohio canal can reach Wadsworth, anc
: says:
8 AT last reports the old canal bee
9 was nearest to Wadsworth at a point
on Second street, Barberton-7 miles
distant 1t might be suggested thai
the canal bed from Barberton to Clin
ton be removed and re-laid from Bar
berton to Wadsworth, thus furnishing
the completed tube.

sentations made to them by Burke, ,and
a hearing Of the case is expected to
be arranged for some time this week.
In letter to a local stockholder
from Al Hudson, president Of the
company,the latter attempts to dis
credit the statements Of W.H.Burke,
concerning the latter's resignation
from the company and those reflect
ing upon the instability of the COM
pany and the integrity Of it's officials
In his letter Hudson states that the
company is perfectly solvent, and has
money on hand to pay every obliga-
ton it owes.
Explaining Burke's former connec.
tion with the company and his later
disconnection and subsequent charges
against the company, Hudson writes
in his letter: g3im ~.
"The company some time ago
employed w. Fl. Burke as its gen.
eral manager, and the Board of
Directors turned over the man.
agement of the company to Mr..
Burke, having confidence at the
time that he was the proper man
for the position.
"4As time went on the Board of
Directors began to feel that Mr..
Burke was not working for the IN
terest of the company, and finally
there were certain acts on his
part which made it very appar-
ent to us that he was not only not
working for the interest of the
company, but was working
against the interest of the COM
pany. Your Board of Directors
thereupon discharged Mr.. Burke.
"Mr. Burke went to see few
stockholders of the company and
persuaded them to bring a suit
against the company, and the
Board Of Directors, charging the
Board with squandering the COM
pany's money.
"The bill was filed before the
Board of Directors had any know
ledge that such things were being
done, and simultaneous with the
filing Of this bill, and before we
had knowledge Of same, these
people went to the court and ask
ed that a receiver be appointed
for the company.
eve wish to assure the stock
holders that the charges brought
against the Board of Directors
are entirely unfounded and we
are exceedingly anxious to get in
to court for the purpose of having
the whole matter cleared up.
"In the meantime we wish to
assure all the stockholders that
their interests are being conserv-
ed and protected"
At the meeting Saturday nigh
President Hudson and Fiscal Agen
Giering entered the court room Will
Burke was making his accusations
When Burke had finished, both Hud
son and Giering gave Burke the lie
and determinations and re-incrimina
tions were exchanged rapidly for
brief time as to afford considerabl
amusement to the stockholders pres
ent, Notwithstanding their anxiety a
to the safety Of their investments.
Burke wants the local stockholder
to contribute a small per capita ia:
for the purpose Of defraying lega
expenses in a suit which he propose
to institute against the company.
