YALE CLUB WAS
ONCE BRITISH
HOSPITAL
Head of Yale in 1777 Sent
There to Die After Pot
Shots at invaders.
BY International News Service.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. Feb. o.
Dances and dinners, tea fights and
lectures abound today in an an
cient house on Elm street, in CEN
trail New Haven, that in 1777 was
British hospital.
One of the historic houses OF
Connecticut, the structure has
been turned over for use by the
Yale Faculty Club, and with just
enough improvements to make the
place seem comfortable, seems likely
to be preserved for the future.
President Stiles, the revolution
airy head of Yale, gave his life in
resisting British invasion OF New
Haven in 1777, being wounded and
captured while taking pot shots at
the troops from behind a clump OF
trees, and taken to this present-d day
club structure, where he died.
Arson Phelps Stokes, late secre'
tary of Yale, bought the house Tor
his home some years ago and then
for the first time since its erection
in 1867, the property passed from
the Pierpont family, to whom the
site was granted by a special act OF
the English king. When the Brit
fish came, the Pierponts hid their
silver in the garden and fled.
Stokes turned his property over
to Yale when he resigned as secre
tary, and Yale has assigned 1t tC
! the Faculty Club.

co TO EXPLORE
NEW MEXICO
CAVERN
National Geographic Society
Sends Expedition to
Cave of Carlsbad.


Sending of an expedition to ex-
plore Carlsbad Cavern, New Mexico,
thought to be Americas largest
and most beautiful cave, and to
seek further remains Of the ancient
inhabitants Of this continent, was
announced today by the National
Geographic Society from its head
quarters here.
Although partial explorations have
been made Of the cavern in the past,
it's interior yet remains a secret.
Those who have gone into the cave
declare it has a corridor OF vast
proportions and startling magnifi-
cence, along which an inaugural
parade might march farther than
the mile route from the Capitol to
the White House. The ornamental
ton consists Of chemical formations.
According to the National Geo.
graphic Society the cave Is a
refuge for bats, countless thousands
Of them pouring into the natural
opening at the first sign OF day
and emptying at dusk like a cloud
of smoke. Says the National Geo.
graphic Society:
"The natural opening Of the cave
Is now used exclusively Dy patS' Az
dusk, each evening, they begin to
leave and for three hours the
winged stream pours forth ike
smoke from smokestack.
"Repellent as these little mann.
mails are on close acquaintance, 1t
is fascinating to watch the countless
thousands of them leaving home.
and to speculate on their destination
and the nocturnal adventures await
ing them.
1.-THE cavern now is remote from
beaten travel routes, and after ar.
irving the visitor Is precluded from
the natural entrance, at which there
is a vertical drop of ITO feet Only
the more intrepid would venture
into a bucket to be lowered into
a bat-infested chamber.
Even the small portion of the
cavern traversed revealed that 1t is
national wonder of foremost rank
and it has just been set aside by
order of President Coolidge as ma
tional monument"
1t will be the purpose Of the ex
petition to effect an artificial en-
trance.
