p. n. s. NIGHT AT BRADLEY
Students to Present Play on Eve OF
Ws,hington's Birthday

Following its annual custom of
combining a school program, and mo-
ton picture, the Putnam High school
is offering one of the years feature
programs for its annual high school
night at the Bradley Theatre on next
Wednesday evening, Feb. 81, at 7.30
o'clock. The high school is present
ing the prize play of the Harvard Ora
matte Club for 1915, known as THE
Florist Shop" The play is unusually
witty and has drawn favorable COM
ment from the press in both Cam
bridge and Boston. The school has
paid a royalty to obtain its use, and
the public may rest assured that they
will enjoy quarters of an hour
of clear cut humor and fun.
The play tells the story of the at
tempt of florists bookkeeper 70
bring together middle-aged maiden
lady and her rather slothful lover af-
ter they have been engaged for 10
years. II is a play which the school
is proud to offer TO the public. Mr..
Charron of the Charron Flower
Shoppe has assumed the decoration Of
the stage that it may in every way
create the florist atmosphere.
Manager Alpert has obtained the
picture Cardigan. from the famous
book of that name by Robert w.
Chambers. The play is especially fit
ting to Washington's Birthday, as it is
of the history Of the Revolutionary
War, starting at Sir William John
sons home in Johnstown, N. Y, and
carrying the action well through the
Battle Of Lexington. 1t is a picture
which the people Of Putnam will not
want to miss The high school feels
that it is Offering one Of the best pro
grams that it ever placed before the
public.

Bove Ties Score

At the opening of the thivd quarter
the visitors enjoyed a small lead.
which was soon made up by the home
team. Hammesley's field goal put the
visitors ahead again twenty-five to
twenty-three, and with only a very
short time left to play, the Putnam
supporters were getting very anxious.
Then Bove tied the score with a shot
from under the basket
An extra period was Immediately
decided upon, and Dover eluded the
Putnam guards for two field goals in
the first three minutes. Bove's shot
from the side with about a minute left
to play, made the count 20 to 81.
which it remained for the rest of the
contest, the desperate efforts of both
teams to score being unsuccessful.
From the showing that Bove made
in the second half, it seems as though
Putnam would have done better had
he been in during the whole contest,
but Joe had just recovered from an
illness, and doubtless ii was wise TO
hold him until it was seen that the
game would be close, as his accurate
shooting would be liable to decide the
issue i'm a close contest.

LEGION SEEKS TO AROUSE
CHECKER FANS TO ACTION

Checkers and chess have taken on
new popularity among members Of
Anselm Mayotte Post, the American
Legion, who are holding regular Fri
day night sessions" in these indoor
games of skill. To stimulate greater
interest, the Legion men invite mem
bers Of the Putnam Chess and Check
err Club and any other persons inter-
ested in these two games. TO come to
the Legion rooms on Friday nights
and play with those who are seeking
opponents. 1t is hoped, by these Fri
day evening games, TO stimulate great
er interest in Putnam In chess and
checkers, and eventually form a team
that may challenge and play teams in
other cities, such as Hartford and
Woonsockst. where there ARE organi-
cations waiting for challenges.

Putnam High schools fast basket
ball quintet, playing 10 a tweRty-fye-
twenty-five tie with Norwood Hifh.
at the end Of the regulation playing
period, was nosed out by the Massa-
ehusetts team, 1927, in a five minute
overtime period, in the game played in
the local gymnasium last Friday even
ing. The game was undoubtedly the
best seen here this season and perhaps
for several seasons.
The accurate and bewildering pass
work of the visitors was as spectacu-
lar as it was successful against the
Putnam five. Although Putnam could
boast of no such password system as
the invaders, nevertheless the locals
playing system was sufficient to get
the ball from under the Norwood
basket many times, and to keep the
visitors worried throughout the cen.
test. Some of the Putnam players
also had hard luck on their shots,
especially Mccoy, who missed five
long shots.
Putnam Scores First
At the start of the game Putnam
lined up with Morse and Mccoy at
forward. Harrison at center. and
Donovan and Maher guards. The
locals scored first, Harrison dropping
in field goal from near the basket.
Hammesley's successful shot from the
foul line, his only one of the game.
gave the visitors their first point.
Harrison increased the Putnam lead
to three points, a moment later with
another neat goal, while Dover of
Norwood and Mccoy of Putnam by
scoring field goals, brought the score
to six and three for the first quarter.
In the second quarter the Putnam
lineup was changed, Bove going in at
forward in place of Morse, who went
to guard, Donovan leaving the game.
The visitors displayed their fastest
work Of the game at the opening Of
the second half, when Putnam was
literally played off its feet for few
moments, and when the locals recov-
cred, Norwood led by ten points,
twenty-one to eleven. The home tenn
then started a rampage all its own.

n ed in Party's Interest.
By the Associated Press.

( KNOXVILLE, Tenn, September %.
E-Senator John K. Shields, in a pre-
snared statement released here in re-
3ply to a letter from former President
Wilson recently published in Ten
,nessee newspapers. declared the letter
was mot called for and published In
the interest of the democratic party,
but for the sole purpose of injuring
me with the people of Tennessee.
The Wilson letter conta1ned the
phrase: Il regarded Mr.. Shields dur
ing my administration as one of the
Ieast trustworthy of my nominal sup
porters, to which the senator yester-
day made reply that 'if Mr.. Wilson'S
accusation of untrustworthiness means
that l could not be dictated to in the
discharge of my great official duties
as senator representing great
state. he is right. If he means that
during his administration I did not
support the principles of the demo-
cratic party and discharge my duties
us a senator honestly and faithfully
to the best of my ability. he is alb
solutely wrong"
sympathy for Mr.. Wilson.
Expressing profound sympathy for
Mr. Wilson in his great and protracted
affiiction, Senator Shields said: I'VE
cannot cherish resentment for any
thing he may now say He is i'm
mune from criticism"
p The senator challenged any man to
point to a single instance in which
he had failed to follow the demo-
cratic platform.
Il supported all the great measures
which were enacted by Congress and
approved by Mr.. Wilson as President
| supported all the great war meas
ures which Mr.. Wilson asked for the
successful prosecution of the war"
Senator Shields claims.
when | was a candidate in 1918
Mr.. Wilson, although he had served
two years, did not challenge my
democracy or oppose my election"
The senator asserts that the head
and front of his offending Mr.. Wilson
iS found in his opposition to the propo-
sitions that the United States be-
come a member of the league of ma
tionS and take mandate under the
league for Armenia.
