B. A. Loses First Game to Newport.

In a well played game of ball the
Barton academy team went down to
defeat before the Newport team Sat
urday. The weather was cold and
rainy which made good playing diff
cult. The teams were well matched
and only timely hit for Newport
won them the game.
The game was fast although each
side only scored three hits. Mud
gett did fine work in the pitchers box
and got himself out of some bad
holes. He struck out Is men and
passed six while Hill, pitching for
Newport, struck out II men and
passed eight.
Newport scored once the first inn
ing. Barton scored once the second
and the game stayed there until the
fifth inning when Newport brought in
another run. With two men on bases
in the eighth, Newport got hit Civ
ing them two more runs. In the
ninth inning with two men out Bar
ton started scoring. One run came in
with two men left on bases. Hill
was beginning to pitch wildly when
the man on third tried to steal home
and was put, out ending the game
when Barton's chances of winning
were the best.
Considering the weather there was
a good crowd at the game. With bet
ter weather bigger crowds will be
expected and some good baseball
demonstrated.

Barton Academy Notes.

The chapel exercises were in charge
of the ninth year although the time
was given over to the preparation of
the cheers for Saturdays game. 1t
was opened with a school yell led by
Mudgett; two songs were sung by
four of the freshmen girls: another
yell and the setting up of each mem
Der of the team was led by Bald
win. A representative of each of the
four upper classes gave a short talk
on school spirit. The rest of the
time was given over to the practice
of the school yells. 1t was closed
with two school songs sung by the
school.
Last week in the Wednesday chapel
Mr.. Stevens announced Charlena
Clough as valedictorian and Sylvia
Jenness as salutatorian. He also an

Monday morning the chapel exer-
cises were given over to unveiling a
portrait of Ira Allen. James B. Will
bur of Manchester presented one Of
these portraits to every high school
in the state. Mr. Wilbur is very
much interested in the cause of edu-
cation in the state and the part that
Ira Allen had in the early develop
ment of education. The statue of
Ira Allen at the University of Yer
mont was presented to the university
last June by Mr.. Wilbur. The exer-
cises opened with a patriotic song by
the school; Prin. Stevens then made a
few remarks about the portrait and
that as May 1st was Ira Aliens birth
day and was also celebrated at the
University as Founders day, it was
fitting that we have our exercises al
the same time. The portrait was ther
unveiled by Roy Valley and Lisle
Bean while Miss Whitcher played
America" very softly. Mr.. Gilpin
then gave very interesting talk on
the life and work of Ira Allen. He
pointed out that Ira Allen was man
of vision, action, character and for
tune. He showed how this portrait
should be an inspiration to all anc
highly valued by the school. Miss
Ida Whitcher gave a vocal solo after
which the exercises closed by the
singing of "America."
