Rabbit Maranville
Goes to Pirates

Boston, Jan. 23.-Walter (Rabbit)
Maranville, short stop for the Bos-
ton Nationals has been traded to the
Pittsburgh club 1t was announced by
Manager Fred Mitchell tonight. Out
fielders Williams Southworth and
Fred Nicholson and Infielder Walter
Barbara will come to Boston as a re-
suit of the exchange.
There was no cash consideration.
Mitchell said. He intends to keep all
the players and declares they will
add materially to the Braves chances
for the pennant this year.
Nobody loves the Rabbit more
than l." said Mitchell, HE is a great
ball player and 1 believe that |
could get more out of him than any,
body, but sine eve are to build up
baseball team we can not ALLOW SEN
timent to stand in the way of doing
so.
I'VE have. I believe. got three great
players for one. Nicholson and South
worth should plug up weakness in
the uotfield which has been all too
apparent for years. Barbara is also
a fine player.
All three are comparatively young
players with the most important part
Of their baseball careers before them.
President Grant contemplates an
other trade or two and il they go
through the team will be much
stronger, in my opinion, than it has
been in some time"

BATES HOCKEY TEAM
WINS OVER BOWDOIN

Bowdoin College, Jan. 22-Display-
ing superior team work and indi-
vidual playing, the Bates College
hockey skaters got away with n.y.
ing start in the three game series be-
tween the two colleges when they
Gagged" the first contest, 40. this
afternoon on the new Bowdoin rink.
The rink was not in the best of con-
dition and slowed down the speed
and fight of the two teams a bit. The
Bowdoin puck chasers showed lack of
team work The poor condition of
the new rink, the past few weeks has
hindered the practice of the players
to a great extent.
Cutler in the position of rover for
the Bates team was the individual
star Of the game. caging two shots
for two of the four points chalked
up for his team. He shot the first
goal in the opening period which was
the only score made during the in
itial period The Lewiston players
swept the home team of its feet in
the second period with three more
points added to their score. Bowdoin
came back strong in the last period
and although not being able to pierce
the Bates defen succeeded In set
ting up an equal defense which made
it impossible for the Bates chasers
to add to their total.

REDS ALARMED
OVER UPRISING
IN KIEV REGION

Warsaw, Jan. 19.--(By the Associat-
ed Press).--The uprisings in the re-
gion of Kiev are reported to have
reached stage where the BoIshevikt
are rushing up fresh troops to deal
with the situation. The peasants are
said to be organizing at various points
between Kiev and Odessa anti Boil
shevik movements which are spread
ing among the Ukranians who desire to
free the district from Soviet rule.
The insurgents are being aided by
the so-called "Blackhand," which is
described as being similar to the Ku
Klux Khan of American Civil War
days, being composed of unidentified
persons who are carrying on night
raids with the principal object of
Kidding the country of Sovie. commis-
sars. Several cofnmissars have been
taken from their beds and shot or
hanged. and their lieutenants in a
number of instances have been warned
to leave the district and never return.
Virtually all of the railroad lines
from Kiev TO Odessa are said 10 be
controlled by the insurgents, but the
Bolsheviki plan to attempt to regain
control of them az soon as their re-
Inducements arrive. The insurgents
have been victorious in several encoun-
tiers south of Kiev. They have reach
ed the suburbs of Kiev. Red forces
are on the way to Kiev to prevent it's
capture.

James w. johnson

The remains of James w. Johnson,
Civil War veteran, were brought from
Augusta to Cornish for burial
Wednesday, January 10th. Mr.. John
son died Monday, January 18th. at the
National Soldiers Home, where he
had been for the past three years.
Death was due to heart disease from
which he had suffered for number
of years.
He was born in Brownfield. Maine,
January 21st. 1910. His early life was
spent in Limington, Maine. When
the Civil War broke out, he enlisted
as a volunteer in the regular army.
He served in the 18th Maine Infantry.
General Skies Brigade. General
Porter's Division.

Bean of Limington, who died without

is under the control of Moscow, from
which it appears that another COM
plication has developed. The de-
pendence of Armenia on Soviet Rus
STA is another situation over which
the President has no control and he
sees no action he could take to free
Armenia without the moral and dip
lomatic support of the principal
powers which holds promise of bring
ing peace and accord to the contend
ing parties.
There is bitter distrust and fear
of war along all the Russian borders.
1t seems futile to attempt to bring
peace to the Caucasus If the result
is merely to free the forces there en-
gagged for new campaigns on other
sectors sof this long front. The dis
tressful situation of Armenia is but
one d tail of this vast Russian prob
lem and the President most earnestly
urges his conviction that it Is only by
general and comprehensive treat
ment of the whole problem, only by
full and generous cooperation of the
principal powers, that a hopeful ap-
proach to the pacification and inde-
pendence of Armenia can be found.
1.-THE attitude of the President to-
wards those now in power in Russia
has been frequently and clearly ex-
pressed. He regards the Bolsheviki
as violent and tyrannical minority,
by no means representing the real
desires and purposes of the Russian
people, but he had never believed
coup d'etat could be solved by mill
tary action from the outside. He
now hopes that the recent tragical
events on the Polish front and in the
Crimea have convinced all the world
that armed invasion is not the way
to bring peace TO the people of Rus
STA.

to act for him in this matter. AS was
stated in my telegram of Dec. 16, 1920,
he has chosen the Honorable Henry
Morgenthau, who has been prepared
to act for him in such steps as may
be taken. Before instructing him to
proceed, however the President has
been awaiting the definite assurances
and information from all the prin-
cipal powers interested as requested
in his cable of Nov. 30.1920. defining
the conditions under which he would
endeavor to mediate.
The message from the British
prime minister transmitted by you on
Dec. 26 would seem to indicate the
impracticability or futility of the
Presidents addressing himself, at
least in the first instance, to the Ar
menians and Kemalists. The Pres
ident is inclined to share this view
and to feel that no solution can be
had without first getting at the
source of the trouble.
Pending receipt of information
and assurances requested by the
President in his telegram of Novem-
her 80. 1920, it is deemed wise to state
the problem as the President views
it, its causes and possible remedies.
1t would appear that the immediate
cause of trouble in Armenia and Tur-
key has been the treaty of Sevres.
Admittedly, this was difficult ques-
ton with which to contend, but the
treaty was drafted by the Allied
powers and the trouble has arisen
over the failure of certain factions to
accept this treaty. and of the Allies
to enforce 1t. This is a question over
which the President has no control,
and measures which he might take
or recommend in this direction would
be dependent upon the hearty CO.
operation and support Of the Allied
powers. -
The British prime minister calls
attention to the report that Armenia

kent's Hill Seminary

Chancellor James r. Day of SYRIA
cuse University. native of Mon
mouth. Maine. has put his foot down
hard on winter football practice.
The chancellor wrote long letter to
The Syracuse Daily Orange, the uni
versity publication, copy of which
has just reached his Kent's Hill
friends, giving three reasons why he
is against such a scheme.
The third reason the chancellor
gives is the real one. This il that it
interferes with the spring and sum-
mer crew practice and draws candi-
dates from the crew to the football
eleven. Some of the players on the
football team also hold seats in the
boat, and it is because of the fear
these crew men would not find time
for both sports that the chancellor
puts his foot down on the scheme.
The second reason is that winter
practice would put disproportionate
value and estimate on athletics. "The
purpose. of the university" he says,
'still remains educational, and with
increasing emphasis. None too much
time is left to the student body to
apply to class room and laboratory"
The chancellor also expresses alarm
over the fact that one team at the
university has booked thirty odd
games for next spring.
The first reason is that winter foot
ball practice is not at all necessary.
The chancellor does not believe It is
good policy to confess to other col
leges that Syracuse 'is in such
straits that IT has to start workouts
for coming season before the play
