With the end of the school year in
June. Cony high school will lose
Coach Clinton r. Thompson, who has
been the efficient and successful di-
rector Of Cony high school athletics
for the past nine years. Mr.. Thomp-
son on Tuesday placed his resigna-
ton in the hands of the Board Of
Education. and 1t will probably be
acted upon as Mr.. Thompson requests
at the May meeting of the Board.
His resignation is occasioned by the
proffer of splendid position at
Bates college, Lewiston. as coach of
freshman athletics, and particularly
track.
In accepting the Bates offer. Coach
Thompson is returning to his alma
mater, which In his own college ca
reer he served gloriously on football
grid and on the cinder path. He has
long been recognized as one of the
best secondary school athletic direc-
tors in the Pine Tree state, and the
defeat Of Lynn English high baseball
team last June by the state cham
pionship Cony high diamond crew,
won him New England recognition.
Clinton Ray Thompson came to
Augusta as a member of the faculty
and coach of the Cony high athletic
teams in 1915. and in the nine years
has developed championship aggre-
cations in football, baseball, basket

COACH THOMPSON TO LEAVE
C0NY HIGH IN JUNE TO HANDLE
Bates FRESHMAN ATHLE TICS

STELLAR performer when wearing the
garnet colors Of Bates. He was grad
uated from that college in 1912. after
having played varsity football for
three years, and being picked as ALL
Maine end in 1910 and 1911. He won
MS 81 In track and relay three
years, and was president Of his class
his senior year.
Besides his reputation for turning
out champions in all sports, Coach
thompson Is recognized as one of the
nnest gentlemen and cleanest direc-
tors IN school and college athletics in
Maine today. He has ever insisted
tnat MS boys play the game Clearly
ana fairly and the wearers Of the
red and white Of Cony high have been
trained first Of all 20 be true sports
men, win or lose. Coach THOMPSON
has never permitted dirty tactics by
players on his teams, and he has es-
taDlished the policy that 1t Is better
10 lose contest than to win It by
resorttng to unfair means.
Since his connection with Cow
nigh school, Coach Thompson deveI-
oped a State championship basket
Dali team in 1920, Maine baseball
champions in 1922. and 1928, and last
year his team won New England
honors by defeating Lynn. Champions
or the strong North Shore League of
massachusetts,, In a never to be for
gotten contest at Williams Field. The
Cony gridsters were the undisputed
champions in 1922. and the hockey
sextet OF that winter, the first that
ever represented Cony high school
won the high school honors of the
state on the ice rink. Cony teams
nave always figured in the secondary
school track competitions and last
spring won the Colby meet. took Sec
ond at Bates. and fourth at Bowdoin
being second only to Portland high
of the high schools.
The Cony. Thompson coached re-
lay team of 1921 won the State
championship, and last spring Cony
band1ly defeated their ancient rivals,
Gardiner. In the dual meet.
or his regard for the school and
the city which he has served for al
most a decade in a way which has
probably done more in building
character in his disciples than has
any other one influence, it may be
best to quote Coach Thompson's own
words contained in his letter of res
ignation. which were as follows:
Superintendent Burrill and Men,
bers of the Board of Education:
1.-THE purpose of this letter is to
tender you my resignation as teach
err at Cony High school. to accept a
position at Bates college.
II do this with genuine regret.
My nine years at Cony have been
very happy ones. 1t has been a
pleasure to have been associated
with the fine class of students and

hall dependent upon the absorption
of reyerberation by the audience that
words carry through the arena when
1t Ia empty. Beams across tho ceiling
and special plaster destroy excess
reverberation without deadening tho
resonance of the hall
The elimination of obstructing
posts was made possible by steel
trussos supporting the ceiling. These
have a span of 215 feet without sup
port, and are the largest In any
plastered building in the world. A
unique achievement OF engineering
prevents the cracking of plaster due
to contraction and expansion OF the
steel In summer the expansion is
two inches, but expansion joints i'm
the trusses make 1t uniform. The
plaster has never cracked.

acoustic system of tho hall In the
face OF skepticism on the part of
