Results of Athletic Meet.

The annual athletic meet of the Boys
Brigade competing with st. MichaePs
Cadets of Brattleboro, was held Friday
night in Skinner gymnasium. About 40
came from Brattleboro by train and went
to the Congregational church, where
supper was served to them, and to the
Mount Hermon orchestra of % members.
The events took place in Skinner gym
nasium at o'clock, opening with the
singing of the Star Spangled Banner.
With Prof. Ieager of Mount Hermon as
referee, a game of basket ball was play
cd between teams from Brattleboro and
the Brigade. The Brattleboro boys won,
II to Ia. They were presented a silver
cup by Mr.. Russell of the Winchester
Junior Rifle club. A competitive drill of
the two companies resulted in the win
ming of the silver cup by the Boys Bri-
gade. Capt. Roy d. Miner made the pre-
sentation speech. The judges were
Lieut.. Smith of Mount Hermon, Ser
gcant Bassctt and Sergeant White, of
keenc. n. II. The next event was a
drill of the two companies for the three
best drilled men. Richard Huber of the
Brigade took first place, Sullivan of the
Cadets I'd. and Shea of the Cadets Sd. A
late war, said of Huber that he never
saw the manual of arms executed better.
These three received awards. A COM
ptitive drill of the one-year boys of the
Brigade resulted in Private wilkins
standing the best test. Competitive
rifle shooting under the direction of
Lieut.. Carl Whitman gave Private Will
liams and Private Lee Sheldon of the
Brigade a tie score. At this time pro-
motion of officers was announced. George
Miller is now captain, Harold Pearson
lst lieutenant, and Albert Goldsmith I'd
lieutenant, More promotions will be
made soon. The Mount Hermon orchcs-
ira rendered excellent music throughout
the evening. w. c. Roberts, command
ant of the Brigade, was unable to be
present much to the regret of all. George
Carr, his efficient assistant commandant,
was on duty. Much of the excellent dis
cpline of the Brigade is due to the work
of Lieut.. Whitman, who has been drill
master the past year and also in charge
OF the rifle club
