RESCRIPT OvERRULES
DEFENDANTS EXCEPTIONS

A rescript was handed down, by the
law court Monday in the Androscoggin
county case of the Maine Candy and
Products Co. VS.. Alfred Turgeon,- ct
ais, overruling the exceptions of the
defendants.
The rescript, which was drawn by
Chief Justice Scott Wilson of Port
land, is as follows:
In an action, heard by the court be-
low without jury. with right of ex-
captions reserved, to recover on an
oral promise involving the payment of
the debt of another, the main issue
raised by the defendants exceptions
being whether the promise set forth
in the declaration is one of novation
or to pay the debt of another sup
ported by a new consideration bene-
fetal to the defendants, Held:
That the declaration while alleging
as in inducement for the defendants
promise a desire to relieve a third
party of his debt to the plaintiff. the
promise to pay the debt is not alleged
to be in consideration of the discharge
of the debt OF the third party, but in
consideration of forbearance to sue
him at that time. and the extension of
further credit and the sale of merchan-
disc to the defendants on credit:
That the declaration does not set
forth an agreement of novation and
enforceable as such, nor would the
evidence sustain such an allegation;
but 1T does set forth an original prom
Use by the defendants based on a new
and sufficient consideration beneficial
to them, which the court. below found
to be supported by the evidence.
That findings of fact by the court
below must be sustained as there was
some evidence in the case to support
them all;
another If based upon new and
original consideration beneficial to the
promissor is not within the Statute of
Frauds: nor does the fact that the
promisee also agreed to discharge the
third party from its obligation make
the agreement one of novation, unless
the third party assents to the agree
ment: nor does his failure to assent
render the promise to pay unenforce-
able, If based on a new consideration
beneficial to the promissor.
That evidence showing the interest
of the defendants in~the property Oh
the original debtor, as indorsers OF his
notes was relevant and properly ad-
mitted. and evidence offered solely to
show that his property when conveyed
to one member of the defendant CO.
partnership was properly excluded. as
il is admitted for the purposes of this
case that the business of the original
debt was taken over and was being
run bv the defendants as copartners
when the alleged promise was made.

Chicago, Jan. 21. -- Subjects for discussion at meeting here todd of baseball's advisory council was n matter of conjecture as Kenesaw Mountain Landis, baseball commits sioner was not overly communicative In announcing he had summoned John Heydler, president of the Na- tlonai league and Frank Navin, pres- ident of the Detroit Tigers and the American league representative, for Ia conference.
 The commissioner said no more than that he wished 10 meet the oth- CT advisory council members to talk over existing matters before leaving TOT Panama next week.
 Whether the 1924 worlds series scandal, in which legal action was launched in New York yesterday. would occupy much of the time of the meeting was subject of wide speculation The commissioner would not be quoted regarding that angle.

NAVY QUINTET ONE OF
 BEST IN EASTERN LOOP
Middies Get Away to Splendid Start and Are Showing Fine Brand
 of Basketball.

New York, Jan. 21.--One of the best basketball teams in the eastern sector this season is that represent. ing the L. S, Naval Academy. Away to splendid start, the midshipmen have been taking one opponent down the line after another. They copped the first 10 games they played.
 Not only have they been showing their heels to the elite east but dur ing an extended road trip into the middle west section around the Christmas holidays, the Navy play CTS ripped some of the premier teams around those parts. including several Big Ten quintets, among the latter Michigan, Chicago and Min nesota.
 This is not the first season that the Annapolis school has turned out a winning aggregation, however. For a year ago the middies skipped through tough schedule, including IS contests. All but three of them were victories, Penn and Colum bia, two of the leading eastern combina-' tions defeating the sailor lads. Penn accomplished the feat twice.
 One of the outstanding stars on this seasons team is Leggett. He's the captain and plays a nifty all. round game. Parish is close behind his leader in ability, too.
 Lieut.. J. R. Allen is present coach of the Navy quintet.

By Tho Associated Press.

1s iHp associated Press,
 New York, Jan. 21.-Hannes Ko. iehmainen's figures for two and three quarters miles, made a dozen years ago. will be tho goal of Puayo Nurlni, marvel of modern runners, at the St. Joseph's Catholic club games in Newark tonight, a race which would appear to be somewhat or vacation for the man from Fin land who has been sinking world records at every shot for two weeks.
 Nurmi's opponents will comprise the Finnish-American A. C., long distance trio, llmar Prim, August Eager and Gunnar Nilsson. who were given long handicaps at the Ford ham meet last Saturday night only to see Nurmi pass them easily after race in New York, another in Chi cago and two nights In Pullman cars.
 kolehmainen, who came out of the Olympic games in 1912 with Kyron- on to make American track compe- tition keener, ran the distance in 13 minutes, 6 3-5 seconds, and this is one of the few marks which have the assault of time.
 After his appearance in Newark Nurmi will rest until Saturday night when he will participate in the an- nual Brooklyn college indoor festi- val. After that his athletic engage ments will come thick and fast all though he is not expected to face such a rigorous test as that he un- derwent last week, during which he established five world marks.
