RUSSIANS ACCEPT PROPOSALS

I WASHINGTON, Mya It The
American reply it was explained,
was sympathetic in character, but
not an acceptance although appar-
entity construed at Genoa as fore
casting participation by the United
States. This, 1t was said, was the
only explanation that could be as
signed in official quarters here to
the confusion in European capitals
which has followed the American
declinat:on of the formal invitation.
French sources at Genoa, prior to
the issuance by the economic CON
ference Of an invitation to the Unit
ed States to participate in the Hague
meeting, sent a "feeler" to develop
the American attitude toward such
participation, it was learned today.

TO ERECT LARGE
PAINTED SIGN AT
U. S. MORGAN FARM

A large painted sign, on which
will be printed in big letters, az. S.
Morgan Horse Farm will soon be
erected on the back of the large
barn at the Government farm, Wey-
bridge, Superintendent H. II. Reese
announced this morning. The sign
which will face toward the east will
be about 100 feet long and will be so
arranged that it can be seen from
the passing railroad trains and from
the Burlington highway, While
the buildings of the farm can be
seen from the railroad, very few
realize that they are those of the
Morgan Horse Farm The new
sign will mark the place without
any question. 1t is possible that
the sign may later be fringed with
lights so that it can be read at
night. Trees on the river bank,
which obstruct the view of the
barn, are now being cut in prepara-
tion for the erection of the sign.
Superintendent Reese has given the
wood to those who are clearing the
trees from the bank.

sometimes several years after gradua-
ton before they finally find their
places in the business world, Middle
bury College has continued last years
series of Vocational lectures. These
lectures are on various branches of
professional and business life and are
intended to help the student to get ad-
vance information as to the place he
VIII fill, or attempt to fill in the world
when he leaves college
The topics and speakers are chosen
by a committee of students with the
aid of Dean E. J. Wiley, who makes
the final arrangements as to dates and

COACHES BASKETBALL
Carl H. Smith Now Hard at Work
With Squad

Carl H. Smith, former basketball
coach at Bates College and mentor of
the st. Lawrence 1920 championship
quintet, has taken over the College five
for the rest of the season Mr. Smith
was a star on the basketball team at
Colgate during his undergraduate days
there and has had several years exper-
ience in coaching and physical educa-
| tion work
The acquisition of a coach who will
be able to devote all of his time to
basketball should mean much to the
squad, which has always been hand
icapped because of the fact that Coach
Arthur NJ Brown has had so much of
his time taken up by the routine work
of his physical education courses that
the squad has suffered from lack OF
attention A heavy schedule has been
arranged this season and practice is
being held five times a week in prepar
alton

Great English Pianist Gives

Harold Bauer, pianist, will give a re-

Der on the College entertainment

Campus, says of Bauer
Bauer IS an Englishman by birth.
lie came of a musical family, and stud
led the violin at an early age. At the
age OF 20 he journeyed to Paris where
he found that there was no room for
a mediocre violinist. Paderewski was
at that time in need of an accompanist
to. play conCertoes with him on a sec
ond piano, and by chance Bauer OBJ
tanned the position.
The great pianist encouraged him
and gave him much material aid. It
was not long before the violinist be-
came a pianist. Bauer made a tour of
Russia, and was greeted with high
praise From this moment his triumph
was assured Engagements followed
rapidly and today he is known as
master artist in all the civilized coun-
tries of the world.
His radical views on piano technic
have been praised and maligned There
is no doubt that in certain cases his
method is supreme, but there is a ques-
tion whether it is the most appropriate
for the majority 1t is almost too cere-
bral Why work for an even scale?
is one Of Bauers favorite questions.
Such a scale has no musical value, and
