MIDDLEBURY-CADET
BATTLE TOMORROW
FIRST CHAMP GAME
Hot Contest Expected Be-
tween Blue And Maroon
On Sabine Field
ELEVENS CALLED
WELL MATCHED
Middlebury Rated With
More Brilliant Attack
Than Norwich Flashes

The three game series for the foot
ball championship of Vermont opens
tomorrow at Northfeld when the
Cadets and Middlebury clash on
Sabine field. 1t promises to be a close
and hard-fought game, with chances
slightly favoring Morey's outfit.
Neither Norwich nor Middlebury
has won a game thus far this season,
but the Blue team has made remark
able showings against Harvard, Dart
mouth and Penn State. Time and
again Morey's brilliant attack has
flashed surprises on some of the
sturdiest lines in the game, working
their way to the very shadows of the
goal posts only to be stopped by
powerful and heavier deienses. Nor
wich is credited with remarkably
strong line and stubborn defense, but
their offensive game is not on a par
with that shown so far this season by
Ashley, Drost and company 1t is also
true that Middlebury's defense is just
as stubborn as the Cadets and with
any kind of breaks at all the Blue
team will be likely to uucork an attack
that will crack through the Norwich
line
Reports from Sabine field are that
Norwich is looking for this first test in
the State series to be a tough prop
osition and Coach Potter and Captain
Walker have been making efforts all
the week to eliminate weak spots in
the Norwich playing.
Coach Morcy's team came out Of the
Penn State grilling with no serious in
juries and with but few minor ones so
that Mddebury will 20 into the Nor
wich game in fairly good condition.
The team leaves for Northfeld to-
morrow morning by auto, and a large
cheering section is expected to follow
the team Tonight in the Mccullough
gymnasium there will be a student
mass meeting

Despite MiddleburyS plucky and
spirited defense, she lost to the heavy
Penn State eleven at State College
33 to 0, before the largest crowd of the
season, at the annual alumni home COM
ing.
Middlebury's attack was the best
that has been seen at State College this
year and kept the Nittany Lions guess
ing through four strenuous periods In
the last period Middlebury pushed the
Penn State team to the limit, but failed
to score. The Lions exhibited the
best playing of the year in Saturdays
game Wilson, the stellar Penn State
half-back was the bright luminary in
the Penn offense, scoring two of the
touchdownS.
Middlebury showed the full strength
of her defensive power near the close
of the first half when Penn State took
the ball to the five yard line and then
was forced to use four plays to get
through the Middlebury line for a
touchdown
The team made their headquarters
at the Fairbrook Country Club, arriv-
ing there Friday morning after travel
ling all night. While there President
Thomas of Penn State College dined
with the team.
Despite the fact that Penn's team
outweighed Middlebury by 25 pounds,
only minor injuries were received.

of the young stock is bred along
very similar lines. Gladstone's
dam, Minnehaha, was one of the
six valuable brood mares des-
troyed by lightning last summer,
but the Farm is fortunate in hav-
ing two of her daughters with
which to pcrpetuate the endurance
and other good qualities of the
family.
Grant, a Kentucky saddle-bred
horse was placed third, with a
grade Thoroughbred, a pure Thor
oughbred, and an Irish Hunter
taking the remaining respective
places. Several Arab and Anglo
Arab horses were entered, but none
were in the ribbons. American
bred horses were superior to the
foreign bred entries and demon
strated the folly of spending un-
reasonable sums for horses in
Europe when better stock can be
secured here at market prices to
say nothing of transportation
costs

MEET IN WILMINGTON
Legion Men Favor Raising Funds For
Red Cross

One of the best get-togethers ever
held by the Windham county organ
ization of the American Legion was
held last Friday night in the village
hall at Wilmington, delegations from
Putney, Brattleboro and Wilmington
being present. The Putney post was
represented by five men. Wilmington
by l6 and Brattleboro by 2S.
The meeting started at S:45 p. m.
and Z. S. Jones, first vice-commander
Of the county organization, presided.
After a short business meeting a dis
cussion was held regarding the rails
ing of Sl0O by the county organization
to help the Red Cross. For some time
the Red Cross has been helping the
disabled soldiers of the county in con-
nection with their compensation
papers and in the discussion which
followed a feeling was prevalent that
the Red Cross should be given fnan-
cial assistance not only in appreciation
of the work which they have done
for the disabled soldiers in the coun-
ty, but also to enable the Red Cross
to go on with the work. 1t was the
opinion of the meeting that each post
should assist the Red Cross to the ex-
tent of 30 cents a member, and each
post in the county will take up the
matter later and probably give its
approval of this suggestion.

PREDICTED TIME OF
 TTDRS AT NOME
(By John A. Wilson)

The tides at Nome are more or less diurnal, that is, only one high water and one low water occur dur ing lunar day. The predicted times of high and low water will not always exactly correspond with the actual occurrence of the tides, as the water levels are sometimes more de pendent on wind than on tide. For this reason no accurate prediction of the height of water at high or low tide can he given. The average height of higher high tides above mean lower low water for Nome is given as 1.6 it. in the government tide tables. All water levels arc referred to Mean Lower Low Water. A monument in the southwest cor ner of Barrack Square is If 1t. above this datum. An extreme range of IS it. in the water levels has been noted at Nome. During the storm of 1913 the water rose to 14 it. above NJ. L. L. w.. and with ncrtherly winds in the fall 1t has been ] it. below this datum.
