the field IL had hene previously
announced that the local team would
be disbanded because sufficient funds
could not be raised to equip a first

did not meet with the approval Of
Middletown fans and finally public
sentiment became so strong that
special meeting was called at which
the question was threshed out
James Moore and Lemont Jones vol
unteered their services TO go out and
solicit funds for the club and their
efforts met with the approval OF local
fans who soon contributed enough to
assure team being placed in the
field.
With some ready cash at their
hand the officials of the club will
now be able TO place the playing
field in good shape. buy gloves and
shoes for the players and have
enough left TO make a good start for
the season.

TO PROBE COSTS
OF SEMINARIES
Presbyterian Assembly Say
Education of Young Men
is Expensive
KEEP UP FIGHT
ON MORMONISM

Investigation of alleged high cost
OF training Presbyterian ministers
in the church theological seminaries
will be undertaken by a committee
OF five members authorized today
The investigation was suggested
by the committee on theological
seminaries, which made a report
through its chairman, DR.. George
. Vincent, Of Newark. N J. DR.. Vim
cent stated that in one OF the SEM
inaries during the last year there
were only three students to each
teacher and that the per capita cost
Of education was S2,S1O.
The committees suggestion for
the investigation resulted in long
debate regarding the higher educa-
; tional institutions. in which the
charge was laid several times that
the schools are producing non
orthodox graduates.

from the Presbytery of Florida. at

seminaries be utilized for prepara-
tory training while the demands for
higher education are slack.

bly, action proposing prosecution OF
an effort to obtain a constitutional
3 amendment prohibiting polygamous

standing committee that the homo
mission council be discontinued
were voted down by a vote OF 3O4
to 232. This vote was taken on ar

god-fathers rather than crooks in
saving the two women from the
