TRACK MEET
HELD TOMORROW

If the Weather Man can be bribed to
lift the ban he has seen fit to lay
upon the athletic contests of Middle
bury College so far this season, and no
other serious difficulties arise, the track
team representing St. Lawrence Uni
versity and the wearers of the Blue
will meet for their annual struggle
Saturday at 2:30 o'clock on Porter
Field. In last years meet at Canton
the New York aggregation manifested
great strength in the hammer, mile and
hundred but by picking up in a number
of other events Middlebury finally
came through with a victory by the
narrow margin of two and a fraction
points. That they are intending to
make a strong bid for Vermont titles
again this year is evidenced by their
overwhelming defeat of University OF
Vermont Saturday. On the other hand,
Coach Browns OUTFIT with the possible
exception of distances, looks every
where as strong as last year.
The trials held by Coach Brown and
Captain Darby during the past week
have been productive Of very good re-
suits. Probably the most promising
candidate unearthed was Shelvey, a
member OF the incoming class, who
showed up the entire field in his race,
the half-mile. He appears to have a
great deal of ability and will bear
watching throughout the remainder OF
the year. Farnham 20, OF last years
team. is running a good hundred and a
faster quarter than ever before Captain
Darby showed a lot of his old time
speed in dashes and is going to prove
a mainstay in Coach Browns point
winning aggregation
Tatro, who suffered minor injuries
from fall while pole vaulting last
week and Robinson who has been
indulging in a temporary lay-off are
both back in uniform and both may be
counted on for their share OF points
Saturday.

A. N. BROWN GETS
PRISON CONTRACT

Arthur N. Brown of SO Court street
has secured the contract OF building an
addition to the State prison in Windsor.
His bid of about $4,000 was among
eight submitted to architect Frank
Lyman Austin of Burlington. Mr..
Brown left today to superintend the
excavation of the basement.
The new structure will be OF brick,
with slate roofing 1t will measure nine
ty feet in length, forty-five in breadth
and its single story will rise to a
height of thirty feet. 1t will be joined
to the present East Hall, and will be
known as the Women's Hall. Three or
four tiers of cells are to be built in it
later. A music room and reading
room for men will be included in the
new addition.
Prison help will be employed to a
large extent. Mr.. Brown did not know
how many men from Middlebury would
go to Windsor on the work on ac-
count of the acute shortage of skilled
labor. His two sons, Fred and Harvey
will assist him after the completion OF
the foundation.

COLLEGE RECEIVES
$4,000 BEQUEST
(From Middlebury Campus,

Although no official notice has been
received by President Thomas as yet,
the various state papers are authority
for the information that a bequest Of
$4,000 has been left by the late Theo-
dore N. Vail to Middlebury College in
his will which has been recently filed
for probate at St Johnsbury. Accord
ing to the report, six institutions share
in the total of 100000 left by the
great inancier for educational advance
ment. They are: Dartmouth and
Princeton Universities two shares OF
100000 each; Harvard University,
$4,000; Massachusetts, Institute OF
Technology, $4,000; Phillips Exeter
Academy, $4,000; and Middlebury
$4,000.
The will, we understand, is a mas
sive document of "a pages. Although
the details of it have not been made
public, it is estimated that the total
amounts will aggregate about S2,OOO,OOO.
Beside the bequests to the Lyndon In
stitute and the educational institu-
ions aforesaid, the above are said to
constitutes most of his public be-
quests.
The donor, Theodore n Vail, died in
Johns Hopkins hospital at Baltimore,
/ Md, Friday April l6, of complication
of cardiac and kidney diseases. At the
time of his death, Mr. Vail was chair
man of the board OF directors of the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Company, having retired as president
last June.
/ AS president of the American Tele-
phone and Telegraph Company, Theo-
dore Newton Vail was the head OF the
largest telephone system in the world.
He was not only its nominal head, but
he was from the first the genius that
promoted the popular use OF the tele-
phone, the first man to establish long
distance by telephone, and when past
seventy years of age, he was still the
initiative head of a system that NUM-
bered nine million telephone subscribers
and represented an investment of a bill
lion and a half dollars.
President Thomas in speaking to the
students about the reported gilt last
Saturday after the Chapel service spoke
of Mr.. Vail as a man of remarkable
personal magnetism. Wherever the
great organizer was, his presence was
felt by everyone, and those near him
had the feeling that they were with a
great man. Such a personal magnetism
was possessed also by the late Theodore
Roosevelt, he said.
Since 1891, shortly after his return
from Buenos Ayres where he had been
in the course of his wide travels, Mr.
Vail had made his home in Lyndon
Vile of this state. At that place he
maintained a beautiful estate OF nearly
five thousand actes and there he enter
tanned the many famous personages
who came to visit him.

COLLEGE LEASES
LOGAN HOUSE

The Logan House on Main street has
been leased for a period of three years
by Middlebury College, 1t will be
used in connection with the Summer
Session of the French School conducted
at the college
When Middebury College announced
the removal of the English School from
its campus to Bread Loaf Inn and the
reservation of Pearsons Hall, Battell,
Hillcrest, and Hillside Cottages for
the exclusive use of the French School
in 1920, it was felt that these radical
measures would provide sufficient hous-
ing for the next Summer Session. Such
has been the rush of applications, how
ever, that these accommodations were
entirely bespoken in March, and one
step after another has bee taken to
provide the needed rooms. The extra
facilities, however, have not kept pace
from various quarters of the United
with the demand from students coming
States who desire to register this year
in Middlebury's famous School of
French. Four houses on Weybridge
street and Starr Hall have been added
to the original four buildings reserved,
and Wednesday another step was taken
by the acquisition Of the Logan House
on three years lease.
The Logan House, because of its
situation at the rear of the little park
on Main street, is the most available
of Middlebury's hostelries for the use
of the Summer Session 1t affords
rooms for some twenty-five occupants,
accommodated singly, with dining ar
rangements for an even larger number.
1t will be managed as an integral part
Of Middlebury's French House The
arrangements of the House are such
as to lend themselves admirably to the
needs of the French School While this
latest extension of the facilities of the
French School will probably be quite
insufficient to provide places for all
who wish to come, it apparently marks
the last step that can be taken in ex-
pansion for the current year. The
Director of the Summer Session esti-
mates that some two hundred and fif-
teen or twenty Students may be accom-
modated in the French School this
year. with a much augmented faculty.

Midd Collegians Vote on Daylight
Plan

Middlebury College will have a day
light saving plan of its own if a petit
tion of the male student body is found
favorable to the administration At a
meeting Tuesday evening the male stu
dents carried by an overwhelming
majority the resolution to petition that
the program of the scholastic day be
advanced one hour, without changing
the hands of the clocks. Glasses would
then begin at seven instead of at eight
as now. The main reason for the
change is a desire for more time for
Varsity baseball practice and inter
fraternity athletics. In the past the
frat games usually held after supper
have often been brought to too hasty
a conclusion by darkness.
Today the girls will vote on the same
question. Fear is expressed that their
attitude will neutralize the boys large
vote, as their interest in athletics can
hardly be the same.

CORNWALL LIVE
WIRE AT MEETING

E. B. Cornwall of Middlebury, pres
ident of the Vermont Farm Bureau
Federation and executive committee
member of the National Federation,
was one of the leaders in the conven-
ton of the representatives of the farm
bureau federations of New England
held in Springfield, Mass, Monday,
April 26. The gathering, the third OF
its kind, was perhaps the most signifi-
cant agricultural meeting ever held in
New England. Guests included the
national president and secretary.
Newspaper reports describe Mr..
Cornwalls participation of the dyna-
mic kind. "He was one of the live-wire
leaders. In his speech on Membership
he gave the members Some straight
from the shoulder opinions as to the
membership proposition. The key
note of his speech was that members
once obtained must be held by the bu-
reau delivering the goods in the way of
actual, practical service,
In the discussion of publicity he also
took a lively part. He advocated a
complete publicity program to include
not only the farmers, to keep them ac-
quanted with the activities of the bu-
reaus, but also among the editors to
instruct hem regarding the aims and
methods of the bureaus. The press, he
argues could not be expected to share
interest in the work unless made aware
of its real Importance to the public gen
orally through the education of better
! farmers.
Mr. Cornwall reports certain changes
adopted, chief among which was the ad-
mittance of women into the state and
county bureaus upon an equal basis
as men. The vote on the question was
unanimous,
Determined opposition to daylight
saving was a feature of the conference
The national organization had already
placed itself strongly against national
daylight saving and was instrumental
in the defeat of the bill in Congress.
Another resolution of importance
adopted was the admittance of women
to membership on the executive com
IHlllte anu DOdIu VI ulICOlOLS VI lHS
national organization.
The question of grain was taken up
One solution to be investigated and
supported is the supplying of eastern
farmers directly from farmer owned CO.
operative elevators in the West. Thi;
would cut out the several middlemer
whose toll on the farmers pocketbook
is severe.
The national organization is also
working toward a decrease in freight
rates The railroads have asked 2;
per cent increase. The tariff expert
in the employ of the federation ha,
discovered that not more than 10 pei
cent is necessary, Through combined
efforts it is expected to reduce the q
per cent asked to even 10 per cent
which would result in a saving to the
farmers of about S340,000O00.
