TARANTULA SCARES
CUSTOMER; CALVI
STABS INTRUDER

A monster tarantula, which had
loosed itself from its native haunt
in a bunch of bananas, created
much excitement, spread conster-
nation and fear and provoked shrill
shrieks of police" and murder"
in Calvi's store Tuesday evening
before Ned Calvi, turning a cou-
pie of hand springs, succeeded i'll
pinning the giant spider with a
banana knife. AS Mrs. A. c. Ia
ber was looking over the fruit dis
play preparatory to making her
selection, she was suddenly start
led by a gigantic spider noncha-
lantly sprawled over a sun-kist
orange. She screamed. The taran-
tula wiggled. Ned grabbed his
razor edged banana stiletto, and
sprang to the rescue After vault
ing over the Sun-kist western fruit
and the nativ' cauliflowers, he sue
ceeding in piercing the brobding
nagian bug through the stomach,
the knife sinking into the juicy pulp
of an orange. Mr., Calvi says that
it is rarely nowadays that one
finds a tarantula in bunch of
bananas that have been shipped
north The last one he remembers
capturing was in 1910 That one
is still in captivity, that is, it is up
at College, resting calmly in
never-ending alcohol bath.

But Entire Blue Line And

While Vermont was successfully
battling with the Aggies at Amherst
and Norwich was taking Clarkson s
measure at Northfield Saturday, Coach
Morey's hard hitting Middlebury team
was trouncing St Lawrence University
in Canton, N. Y. The score was 26-6
and represents four touchdowns for the
varsity
Middlebury started the game rather
slowly, and although st. Lawrence pre-
vented the Blue from scoring in the
first period there was never any ques-
ton that the Vermonters had the fast
est team and were winners. During the
second period the Scarlet came forward
with an effective air raid, executing
five successful forward passes and cul-
minating in a touchdown But this
ended the scoring for St. Lawrence. At
no other time were they dangerous
Drost was the first to score for Mid
dlebury poking hole in the New
Workers line and dashing through il.
Again in the same period Capt Coll
nick crossed the decisive line after
series of forward passes and line plays
had landed the ball close to the ST.
Lawrence goal The aggressive Drost
scored two more touchdowns before
the whistle blew taps" one in each
of the remaining periods.
During the fourth period ST. Law
renee was completely baffled by the
swiftness of the Middlebury attack,
and even with an entirely new lineup,
Morey's men held the Scarlet score
less, and produced substantial gains

Here in the little Paris Lighthouse,

employed at weaving, knitting, type
writing and printing music notation in
Braille (raiscd type). At any of these
occupations a blind man can become
self-supporting and sclf-respecting.
Some of the more highly educated
men-thcre are all kinds at the Light

similar to that which they led before
