COOLIDGE WAS
GOOD SPEAKER
AS STUDENT
Amherst Class Remembers
Him For His OratOrical
Ability
NOT FOR POLITICS
Declare That He Has Charac-
teristics, Like Abraham
Lincoln


Oakland, CAL, Sept. 1g.-President
Calvin Coolidge, referred to as &c.
c." was always worth hearing when
in college, according to biographi-
cal sketch in the annual published
in connection with the twenty-fifth
reunion of the class Of '95 at New
York in 1920, copy of which is own
ed here by Nelson 'Kingsland, news
paperman and classmate of the new
president.
The book contains the following
sketch on Coolidge:
"Other folks may think Calvin Coo
lidge is famous because he has been
a member Of the city council Of
Northampton, city solicitor for North
ampton, clerk Of the courts of
Hampshire county, member of Mas
sachusetts senate, lieutenant-gover-
nor of Massachusetts,.
1--WE of '95 know that he is famous
just because he is Calvin Coolidge.
That is why we used to listen so ca
gerly to him when he was in college,
and why we made him Grove Orator
in senior year. Whether on the Hyde
Fifteen or at boarding house table,
or anywhere else, when C. c. spoke
he always said something worth hear
ing. In senior year he won the medal
offered by the Sons Of the Revolu-
tion for the best essay on the 'Prin-
ciples of the War for American In
dependence competing with under
graduates in all American colleges.
After leaving Amherst he studied
law in the offices Of Hammond and
Field of Northampton and was admit
ted to the bar in, 1897. In 1899 he
entered upon his career in public
life when he became sity counsellor
Of Northampton.
Coolidge has made "a great number
of brilliant epigramatical speeches,
in which are heard the echo of the
hills and classrooms Of Amherst. The
best of these remarkable addresses
are published under the title of
Have Faith in Massachusetts.
"He is a member of the Union and
University Clubs of Boston.
"The fact that he has risen high
in public office and that he was at
the 1920 convention demanded by
many for the position of president
Of the United States does not rest
at all upon self-seeking ambition for
he. does not seek offices, offices seek
him, His courage in mastering the
police strike in Boston is Is only "a
part Of his rockribbed integrity Of
character that we all recognized whep
he was in Amherst twenty five years
ago., ssy y
"We in ''e5 do not honor him for
his high office; we honor him just
as. all people .do-because he is Cal-
vim Coolidge. Like Abraham Lincoln,
a unique personality, . real man in
an age when the world needs real
men,,
"Grove Orator" distributes the
prizes Of humorous character to pop
ular students, and clyde Fifteen"
refers to the fifteen men selected by
the professors to try for q position
on the team Of six who compete in
oratory for an annual prize.

London, Sept, 1O.--An American
institute of learning, Georgia Uni
versity, has petitioned the ecclesias-
teal authorities for permission to do,
some digging in the Cranham Church,
near Upminster. Essex, to find out
if the remains Of General Oglethorpe
are there. If the BODY is found, the
university will ask further permits
sion to ship it across the Atlantic
and place it in q shrine at the insti-

There is no doubt he was buried in
the church. There is a tablet to his
memory on which it is recorded that
he was born in 1896 and died in 17sE.
An account is given also Of his
achievements. In June, 1882, with

OUTLINE LAWS

Would Work Out Safety Laws
For Automobiles and
Pedestrians
URGE EXAMINATIONS
Drivers Would Have to Reach
Certain Require
ments

Chicago, Sept 10.--An intelligence
test for the man or woman who drives
motor car is a possibility within
the next two or three years.
Representative Of 13 middle west
ern states are to be invited to attend
the; Conference of Motor Vehicle
Administrators, representing state
automobile licensing bureaus, to be
held here early in September Ut
which plans will be made for work
ing eout safety-first laws for auto
rrobilists and pedestrians. The move
msnt Is, being fostered by the Ma
tional Safety Council. The convention
is to be called ty Fred M. Rossclar d.
chief of the public safety division of
the National Safety Council.
1.-THE man who drives a car for
somebody else must pass an examina-
tion,' said Walter w. Miller, chief
clerk: of the automobile division .of
the Illinois Department of State.
".But anybody can drive an autom D
bile,cif he owns it, whether he has
ordinary Horse sense or not.
"The accidents dc not happen. to
licensed chauffeurs. They happen to
the unskilled drivers. The conference
will make plans for uniform laws to
govern the licensing of automobile
operators to see if they are suffi-
GENTLY competent mentally to handle
a motor driven vehicle. Some form of
intelligence test is likely to he de-
vised."
Representatives of the state depart
ments of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Wis
consin, Michigan. Minnesota, Iowa,
Missouri, Kentucky, Kansas, Nebras-
ka and North and South Dakota will
be invited. It is hoped to have the
conference just. prior to the meeting
of secretaries Of state at Asheviile'
N. c., September 10, Ia, Is.
: There is real need, according to
the officials sponsoring the confer.
ence, for uniform laws of driving to
lessen the death rate. One way sug-
kested is to prevent a man who never
has handled car before from huyiny
a machine and promptly setting forth
as if he were an experienced driver.
This prevalent custom could be pre-
vented. they say, by forcing the deal
err by law to see that everybody to
whom he sells car is thoroughly IN
structed before he is permitted ia
operate is on the public highways.

is the subject of much criticism from

If the measure, which is know as

The bill is elaborate, comprising

 UPSET CLOSED SEASON

JUNEAU: The opening move in the fight by southeastern Alaska pack CTS to overthrow the Territorial closed season law on salmon, was made this week when R. E. ROberton and H. L. Faulkner, who represent number of canners indicted for alleged violations of the law, appeared before Judge Reed in arguments to nolle prosse the
 'fictments. The case selected to be a test case is against the Aux Bay Salmon Co.,, and while it is being de- cided, cases pending against the other packers represented by the attorneys will be held in abeyance.
 Counsel for the defendants denied the right of the Territorial legislature to enact laws on fisheries, alleging lack of jurisdiction by reason of or ganic limitations. It was further al- legged that the act was special and To- cal in character and applied only to Southeastern Alaska-and to certain classes; that the Territory has no right to enact a law that creates a crime against Federal authority; that the law deprives the general public of the right to fish in Southeastern Alas ka, and vests it in particular class, namely the trollers, in that it ex- cludes all fishermen except trollers from fishing for commercial purposes for certain specified times of the year.
