MCKENZIE, ADAMS AND
PATTEN NAMED TRUSTEE,

BOSTON, Dec. 30-The board
Of directors of the First Church
of Christ (ScientisD today an
nounced the removal of the re-
naming members of the board of
trustees of the Christian Science
Publishing Society. Tho trustees
at the same time insisted that
they were till in Office and that
the fact that their designations had
been offered to the supreme court
placed jurisdiction solely in the
courts hands.
The removal announcement was
made at the close Of hearing
called by the directors who de-
manded that the trustees show
cause why they should not be re-
moved. The trustees had been
charged by the directors with
msmanagemcnt of the affairs Of
the Publishing society which the
supreme court held recently was
subordinate to the board of dirac-
tors of the Mother church. The
directors, the court held, had the
power Of removal of the trustees.
The position of the trustees was
said to be that they have filed
their designations with the court
in whose hands the matter rest.
The directors asked the court
to appoint William F. Mckenzie
Of Cambridge and George Wendell
Adams and James L. Patten If
Boston to fill the vacancies III the
board of Trustees Sherman l..
Whipple, attorney for the trustees
suggested that it was within t,ie
power of the court to appoint q
temporary receiver to take charge
OF affairs until after a hearing had
been had on their petition to be
allowed to resign. Former Gov
ernor John l.. Bates, counsel for
the director. said the welfare Of
the trust, demanded new trustees.
Mr.. Whipplc charged that the di-
.ectors were not acting in good
faith and with malicious ard re-
vengeful motive, Tcle ot .pt g
to supe. cede the power 81 ne
court. Judge Crosby re atl.eA
that the trustees had a right to
be heard and that if there was an
opportunity the case would be
taken up again today.

former trustee Of the Christian
Science Publishing Society by ap-
pointmcnt Of Mrs. Mary Baker
Eddy and editor Of the Christian
Science publications. George

DEMAND
ACTION In
MURDER CASE
Clergy and Citizens Com
mend Editorial on
"Only a Chink"

Within half an hour after the
publication of the Caledonian-
Record on Thursday calls came by
telephone and citizens called at the
office to comment this newspaper
upon its editorial entitled: "Only
Chmk'. Many women took spec
ial pains to voice their sentiments
in favor of the views expressed in
this article.
Today two letters were received
by the morning mail endorsing the
editorial. They are as follows;
Editor Calcdonian-Rccord,
Dear Sir:
This is TO express my hearty ap-
proval of your ringing editorial,
"Only Il Chink." You are altogeth-
cr right and every right-mindcG
person in the community will stand
with you. No effort should be
spared to detect the perpetrators
of this foul murder, and any laxity
in this respect should be indigant-
ly resented.
Moreover, if it be indeed true
as you say, that "boot-legging,
back room gambling, poorly con-
Quoted dance halls, are gradually
lowering the moral standards that
have prevailed in ST. Johnsbury in
the past and that it is matter
of common knowledge that gam
bling and other expressions of
loose morals have been going on
under the eye of the authorities
who are charged with the main
tcnancc of public order, then sure
ly it is high time the public con-
science was aroused and the au-
thortics were given to understand
that the citizens expect them to do
heir duty and will support them to
the limit in the same.
The continuance of loose morals
and their condoning by the author
tiles is nothing short of dangcrou,
to the safety Of life and
property. There will soon be
other victims 1t is always 50.
Yours very truly
Francis A. Poole
st. Johnsburv, Dec 80, 1921.
To the Editor of The St. Johns
bury Caledonian-R Record.
Dear sir
have lust read your editorial
entitled. "Only A Chink" and feel
that | must not allow the day to
pass without saying; "Bully for
the Caledonian-Record". 1t is not
often that a daily paper has nerve
enough to stand fairly and square
ly as being against some local evil
and the Caledonian-Record is to he
highly commended for its fearless
ness.
The time has come when some
thing must be done toward clean
ing out the stronghold of vice in
thi, community. The cold bloodcd
numbering of our Chinaman friend
has brought the issue to climax.
| believe the thinking people of St.
Johnsbury will no longer tolerate
a half hearted enforcement of the
law. The time is here when the
States Attorney, Sheriff and Po-
lice Force must either get busy
and get results or lose political
and social prestige in this town
and county.

DOUBLES SCORE
IN GAME WITH
MONTPELIER
Contest Distinguished BY
Individual Work On
Both Quintets

In return game at the ArmolV
Thursday evening, the American
Legion-Company ID basketball
team eXactcd sweet revenge from
the Capital City Five Of Mont
pelier by the score of 80 to 16. A
record crowd attended the con-
test, which was a spirited melee,
but not the snappy exhibition of
teamwork displayed by both the
locals and White River on Mon
day evening. The play was rouGh
at times, the Montpelier bas-
kctecrs pulling off several eX-
amplcs Of illegitimatc body
checking, and shouldering. In fect
there was considerable holding on
both sides.
The visitors carried several
stars on their quintet, which, how
ever, failed to evincc the smooth,
ing working defense, for which
it was reputed. "Ncl5" Browne, 4
former Dartmouth basketball cap
t9iD. was at left guard for ilont-
pcl.ier, and showed flashes o. his
mdisputed past form H. was
speedy on nc court but was IN
allie to secure more than a goal
from the door. Tripp, ri&a' for
ward. carried on the brunt of tha
Capital City, attack with his trio
of baskets.
The contest Thursday evening
was distinguished by more indiVid-
ual playing than any game seen OIL
the Armory court this sea ON.
Long dashcS down the floor,
broken BY no passing and long
distance shots at the basket. were
| common. occurrences. The fact
that the game was delayed al
hour, by the difficulty, the Mont
pelicr boys had in driving throug
| the snow drifts. tended to throw
/ the work Of both Quintcts some
what off color,
Marshall, who had little troubl"
in locating the mcshes-as did
most Of the locals at the beginning
Of the game-finally swung into
! action and nettcd ten corking
goals before the game ended.
Burch likewise had difficulty IN
adjusting his sights at the open
ing Of the game, but managed 20
breeze through with Some clever
shots when most needed.
"Lucky" Fisk cut loose several
times, taking the big sphere OH
long journeys the entire distance
Of the hall. He showed a sort
of uncanpy way Of cxtricatinG
himself from the close guarding Of
Browne and Donnelly, the bic
Montpelier backfeld men. Goslaut
kept up his scorelcss record -
scorclcSs for the other fellow. In
the lat two full games that Co
liant has played, there have been
no baskets secured by his man.
The big crowd Of fans were dis
appointed not to see in action
"Stacey" Clark, the scintillating
Norwich University forward, who
was expected. Tripp, who has
been playing in the backfcld, was
thrust into the fray at right for
ward in place of the absent star.
In spite of the delay occasio ned
/ by the late arrival Of the visitors,
yet the crowd was good naturcd,
apprcciating that it was no fault
of the management. During the
interim, Hcnault's famous orcheS-
ira played some snappy music,
which helped to keep the bug
crowd in good spirits.

 FOR BENEFIT OF PRISONERS

Jackson. Mich. The Michigan state penitentiary here has set what is said to be an innovation in prison management by the purchase of an N-ray machine with which to photo graph the skulls of inmates and deter mine if surgical ope.ations might cure the 1rtt.rnts of criminal tendencies. This work has just I.aen undertaken at thcp rison.
 When it is found that a part of the skull is pressing on the brain an oper- ation is to be performed in the prison hospital hy Detroit surgeons who have volunteered to cooperate.
 If theo per;ttion is believed t" have cured the prisoner the judge who sen- tenu d him will be asked by Warden Harry L. Hurburt of the prison to bglng about his release. A number of judges in the state have agreed to ac- cede to any such request made by tf- warden, he announced.
