gagged in a duel with Americas
Polli.
The Newport town team beat
Lyndonville twice but the Newport
Receives were squelched on two
occasions. Lisbon has fallen victim
to the Villeites twice and Woods
vile has lost three games. Lyn-
donville has won two 3 to 2 deci-
sions over Barton, both contests
going 10 innings, Early in the
season Barton defeated Lyndon
vile 2 to 1.
The many Lyndonville victories
may be attributed to good pitch
ing, combined with strong hitting
on the part of the athletes. 1t is
interesting to note that five mem
bers, of the regular team are clout-
ing the ball for an average OF over
800 while three are hitting way
above the $50 point. The slug
gers are w. Sutton, C. Pierce, r.
Sutton, Hazard and Ahern. Pete
Gaudette played in but two games,
was at bat twice and made one hit
so he is officially credited with a
percentage of 500.
w. Sutton. catcher, enjoys the
highest fielding average with a
percentage of 1886 in Is games.
He has accepted 2O2 chances with
but three miscues which is parti-
cularly fine record. Hazard ranks
seond with a percentage Of .974
in 20 games. He has taken 80
chances with but one bobble. The
fielding of the entire team on a
whole. is verv creditable.
Lavely is blazing the wav along
the base paths, having stolen 18
bases in 10 games, an average OF
nearly one theft game. Austin
and Ahearn are tied for second
place with 10 each. Altogether CT
bases have been stolen showing
that the boys are feet footed. The
team as a bunch has hit 80
doubles, six triples and / home run.
The averages were compiled by
Cecil A. Burns and cover the sea-
SON up to date. In an interview
with Caledonian-Record repre-
sentative, Mr.. Burns said:
ave feel highly elated to think
that we have five regulars that
are clouting the old pill for over
300 and four of them have played
in 13 games or more. If they can
keep it up for the remainder of
the season there will be few hitters
who can boast of an average
equal to theirs for the same num-
Der of games

are correct"
The averages follow:

Caledonian-Record reporter boar
ed the Anthems as she locked ar
the wharf Friday at noon. Captain
T. J. Jackman Is the owner ami
commander of the ".Anthefnis"
The congenial veteran of Ii yeas
service on the dangerous Yukon
river and its tributaries greeted
the reporter. The captains per-
sonality radiates good nature, and
though he has been on Lake
Memphremagog but few months,
he is extremely popular with his
passengers. Every kid at the two
terminals-Magog and Newport
admires the captain who often
umpires juvenile baseball games.
A visit to the "Anthemis" was
not necessary to disrupt much of
the information that has filtered
through to the Burlington paper.
AS matter of fact, Captain Jack
man stated that he draws practi-
cally no trade from the city of
Newport. 1t is known quite gen
orally in the borderc city that the
Anthems" has never loaded up
wish passengers from Newport,
bent simply on replenishing them
selves with booze of all Kinds.
Good Newport citizens do not do
such things.
They could not get anything in
the line Of intoxicants, even
though they wanted to. Nothing
is served on the "Anthemis" ex-
cept beer containing approximately
6 per cent alcohol. Again there
is no bar on the boat. 1t is true
that the owner is licensed to sell
liquors including wines and Other.
Intoxicating beverages.
Captain Jackman has a Cana
dian license permitting him TO
dispense them, but out of regard
for propriety, and for the enjoy
ment OF women and children, the
thoughtful owner has decided that
nothing but a mild beer shall be
dispensed upon his boat
The license is a dinino room IL
cense. In order to secure a drink
of the beer, it is necessary to pur-
chase something to eat. And
beer purchased in the dining room,
must be consumed there. The
bottles cannot be taken out Of
the room.
A copy of the Burlington Daily
News lay in the lap of the smiling
captin. He picked up the paper
and read "CAN BOOZE BE SOLD
ON VERMONT LAKE?" This
latter constituted the scare head
line of the Queen City paper on
Thursday July 28.
Il would suggest, Captain Jack
man chuckled, chat whoever
wrote that booze story for the
Burlington Daily News should
study up his grammar school
geography. Lake Memphremagog
lies chiefly in Canada but a
small portion of it lies in the
United States. The body of water
extends nearly 80 miles into the
Dominion, while there are only
about six miles Of water in Yer

the length of the trip is just

EXPENSE OF AIR SERVICE
 DURING WAR, $59s, ,o9o, ,7s1

New York, April 11.--Expenditures of the United States for the army air ser-' vice during the war often placed by critics of the service at more than $1,000,-. -0U0 900, actually amounted to q net out lay of $59S09o.fS1, it is shown in a letter from Major H. M. Hickman. chief of the information group in the air service, to the Aviation and Aircraft Journal.
 The letter. embraced in an article which that magazine will publish this week. de- clares that after two years of settling claims, adjusting cancelled contracts and liquidation, the air service has returned to the United States treasury S5S2,564,- 7S1 of the appropriations made for it by
 congress.
 .The actual amounts appropriated for the army air service during the war az gregated $1,6S7 054,75S," the article says
 From this total there were revoked by
 congress sums aggregating s487 ,000, 900,
 making the net amount available for ex- penditure by the war department S1,200,- 054,75S.
 Until now the charge has been made ! and the public has been led to believe that most of this money twas spent and largely wasted.
 .,Fhe amount actually expended from the money appropriated for the war de- i pertinent for the air service, in this i country and abroad, during the war was $617 4S9.977. From this has been de-
 ducted $19,S90,196 realized by sales of surplus material"
