BODY LAID TO REST

Plymouth, VT, July lin this
little village cemetery where the
naples and evergreens throw
long shadows across the old tomb
stones on the hillside, they buried
Calvin Coolidge, 16 year old son
namesake of the president. Restrain
ing in large part outward manifes-
tation of their sorrow, the president,
Mrs. Coolidge and John the elder
son, stood with bowed heads during
the short, simple commitment SER
vices until marine bugler had blown
''taps" across the grave.
The cemetery where Calvin was
laid to rest lies on a little hill domi-
mated by the Green Mountains which
overshadow the village. In the fam
lily plot lie the mother of the presi-
dent, ancestors and kinsmen and in
the same grassy row where the grave
was dug are spaces reserved for the

John and his mother.
Many High. Officials Present
Much of official Washington, in
cluding eight cabinet members, the
speaker of the nations house of rep
resentatives and the governors Of two
states attended the services. The
party from Washington came in the
closely guarded train which was halt
ed at Northampton for services in
the Edwards Congregational church
of which Calvin was a member.
The funeral party arrived at the
Ludlow railroad station, l3 miles
away, halted as the six marines from
the presidential yacht Mayflower,
who had guarded the boys bier con-
stantly in Washington and on the
train, carried the casket to a wait
ing hearse. Then the procession,
more than a mile long, drove over
the long road among the hills to the
burial ground.
The party was forced to walk up
the hillside to the spot where the
grave had been prepared. After the
marines had lowered the casket into
place, a mixed quartet sang "My
Faith Looks Up To Thee" The Rev.
Kenneth B. Wells, Northampton pas
tor, who had accepted Calvin into the
church read few short passages
from the Bible, then offered pref
prayer.

DARKNESS SAVES
co. F FROM TOTAL
SLAUGHTER, 1873

After dropping three games, the
Gannett baseball team came back
strong and raped out a 1853 win
over Company F on Williams field
last evening. The Gannett outfit was
strengthened considerably by Kinds,
who made a double killing unassist-
ed and Bowling. who helped the
slaughter along with a brace of two
baggers.
Allison did the hurting for the
Publishers and looked highly effec-
tive, holding the Company men to
four hits and whiting eight. The
Company hurlers played good ball
but their support was the acme of
raggedness and poor fielding judg-
ment. The boys from the Company
booted Is and made several boners
with men on bases.
Owing to the darkness the game
was limited to Ave sessions.

British Ban Golf
Club With Steel Shaft

London, June "a. p. by Mail)-
The acceptance of the use OF steel
shafted golf clubs by the governing
body of the game In America meets
with no approval In Great Britain.
i For this there are many explana-
-stions. In the first place. there 10 the
inherent British Discrimination to ac-
cept anything new. but beyond this
. reason for repelling novelties that
seek to cross the Atlantic, there Is,
In this case. a general feeling that
the Americans are always trying to
make the game Of golf easier and
more mechanical Consequently the
British feel that 1t il up to them.
who nurtured the game in its in
fancy, to see that 1t keeps the char
acter of its youth.
II was this feeling which led the
royal and ancient law-making body
to forbid use Of the punched and
cut-faced irons which the American
entrants in last years Open Cham
pionship brought over. II anyone
brings steeI-shafted clubs from
America to this years champion
ships 1t will be waste of cargo
space. because the governing body Is
certain to bar them.
Just before the amateur cham
pionships began at st. Andrews last
month. the rules of golf committee
posted a notice In the clubhouse
"deploring" the use In the game of
golf of implements which have
never been associated with It," The
notice was polite, but intended, no
/ doubt. to make those who failed to
heed it's moral lesson just little bit
ashamed OF themselves. 1t read as
follows:
THE Rules OF Golf committee
hope that golfers. before making use
of abnormal methods OF play or of
abnormal implements. will earnestly
consider whether they are acting in
conformity with the spirit OF the
the regulations governing the form
and make Of golf clubs.
THE committee considers 1t is to
be deplored that players. instead of
trying to master the use of golf
clubs. should endeavor to overcome
the difficulties of the game by using
implements which have never been
associated with It,"
At the time Of its appearance, the
people at st. Andrews interpreted
the notice as q hint to H. d. Gillies.
O. well-known British amateur, to
give up the "Eiffel Tower" tees, some
six to ten inches high, which have
excited much comment ever since he
began using them last winter. Mr..
Gillies took the hint and fell back
upon the ordinary little clots Of wet
sand for his tees the next morning.
Anyone who has followed the discus
sion by British golfers and sport
