With only one friendly contest to require but single ballot, the caucus of the republican party last night was an exceedingly quiet one, all present office-hoders being re- nominated except those retired by their own expressed wish. The meet ing was honored by the presence of Governor John H. Trumbull, who took an active part in the business. Stanley s. Gwillim presided and Charles H. Newton, chairman ofthe republican town committee, acted as clerk. There were about 70 voters present.
 Miss May Morgan was renomnat- ed for town clerk. which position she now holds. William J. Johnson and James J. Simpson. respectively first and second selectmen, were again the choice of the C.. o, P, for those offices Governor Trumbull nominated William H. Wilson to succeed himself as town treasurer and the nomination was carried without opposition. Willis J. Hem | ingway was placed in the running for tax collector once more.
 Contest For Assessor The single contest of the night which was a friendly one at that,
  berths were sought. Charles w. Hird was placed in nomination against Schuyler P. Williams. one of the present assessors, and for the only time during the course of the cve- ming a ballot was necessary. There were 64 votes cast, Mr. Williams re- ceiving 32 and Mir. Hird 90, tho other two being blank. John J. Kimmell and William J. Simpson were unopposcd for thc other asses sors' places.

IS READY
TO- RE-CR0SS
ATLANTIC
Finnish Runner in Receptive
Mood For Return En-
gagements Here

Paavo Nurmi, the Runner of the
Ages, though he declared when he
left here last May that he would not
return for two years, at least, is
reported to be in a receptive mood
regarding invitations to visit the
United States next winter.
An American traveller, who re-
turned from Europe recently and
who visited Helsingfors, Finland,
during his stay on the other side,
has brought back word that Paavo
is not a little interested in the
possibility Of another trip TO Amer
lea in 1926.
1t is known, too. that the Fin.
nish athletic officials are unalter-
ably opposed to Nurmi making an.
other trip across the Atlantic as
early as next winter. They fear
two possible developments in the
event that Paavo comes here III
1926-that he may join the ranks
of the professionals through choice
or necessity or that he may decide
to settle down in the United States.
The Finnish officials offered siren.
uous objections to Nurmi's coming
here last winter, it has been learned.
An athlete of less prestige would
undoubtedly have been turned down
cold, even as Charley Hoff, the
Norwegian all around star, was
when he applied to the Morse Off
Gals for permission to compete in
this country.
1t was Nurmi's repeated insist
ence, backed by powerful influence
in government circles, that enabled
PaaVo to win the desired sanction
to come here.
Nurmi occupies much the same
position in Finnish track and field
circles that Big Bill Tilden does in
lawn tennis in this country.
PaaVo, like Bill, is something OF
national hero and really bigger
in the public esteem than the Off.
Gals. who control the sport.
His fight to force the officials
to grant him a permit to race here
last winter is reported to have been
bitter affair, PaaVo winning out
through the sheer forge of his posi-
ton as Finland's national hero.
1t is understood that the officials
of the Amateur Athletic Union OF
the United States do not look with
favor upon a repetition of Nurmi's
triumphal 1925 tour on the Ameri.
can tracks next year. The A. A.
L. men believe that the best inter
ests of the sport will be served il

his first act Of lese majestic on the
tenth green in the afternoon round.

it caused little or no comment. But

slightly off and down hill. he
watched, closely while he saw Jones
miss the cup by ten feet on his
third shot, one Of those famous
chips, and then he walked hurried
and snacked at it
The ball rolled steadily up the
slight knoll to the cup, rolled on,
and then rolled some more for
good measure. And they call this
a Scotch game. Where Roland
should have had the hole in an
easy four, he was forced to
halVe it with a lucky five.

on the sixteenth green when he
was two down and only three to
go. On the green with a splendid
tee shot with a mashie iron, Roland
happily observed that Jones had
found trap from the tee. Jones
had a great shot to the greens, and
Roland was to all intents and pur-
poses resting on the well-known
cinch.
Jones putted three and Roland,
putting two, should have played his
shot safely. Instead he elected to
try for the cup, when he had at
least one more shot for a half and
a hole.
The green, fast as a CREASED pig,
lust shooed his ball far beyond the
cup, and he was lucky to get down
with q half. Those two mistakes
cost him a match in the national
amateur, which makes them pretty
costly.
