CLUB OF TRAINERS OF THE CONSTITUTION

inipotent government and shrewd
European observers felt that the 13
states could not maintain their newly
established independence, and that
they would soon again become a>sub-
ject state. Therefore "a preliminary
netting was held at Annapolis and
after an examination of the situa-
ton a call for a federal convention
to meet in Philadelphia in May 1887
was drafted by Alexander Hamilton.
To this convention which assembled
in the city of Philadelphia in May,
each Of the 10 states, with The sX-
ception of Rhode Island, sent repre-
sentatives. Sixty five delegates were
chosen but only So attended the ses-
sions Of the convention, and these 30
for only portions of the time. The
meetings of the convection were not
open to the public, and all discussions
were carefully guarded. Minutes of
the debates and speeches were kept
by Madison and by Yates, but it was
not until so years after the conven-
ton had adjourned and Madison had
been gathered to his fathers, that the
records of the convention as kept by
him We're made public.
The speaker gave few figures
with regard to the delegates, which
showed that 90 were college gradu-
ates and 26, including Washington
and Franklin were not. Six of the
number were sisners OF the Declara-
ton of Independence and five were

CoNY- GARDINER
< CLASHES PROMISE
PLENTY ACTION

When the Cony lads and lassies
mix with the Gardiner High bas-
keteers this evening at City Hall. it
is safe bet that by far the largest
crowd of the season will be present
to witness the contests. The Cony
High boys so into the contest with
a little the edge on their opponents
according to their present showing,
although the Gardiner boys trimmed
them at their first clash which took
place in Gardiner earlier in the sea-
son. The outcome of the Cony-
Gardiner girls game is more II
doubt but it is sure thing that
there will be plenty Of snappy play
ing before either team comes
through a winner.
Fans attending the Cony-Gardiner
games heretofore have been troubl-
ed by the small size of the Cony hall
which would not accommodate the
crowd. This year with the game in
City Hall there should be plenty of
room for all. Word has been re-
be at least 100 students who will

up their teams. They will occupy
seats on the east side of the hall
and the Cony rooters will be on the
west side. The advance sale Of tick
cts indicates record attendance.
In preparation for this game a
rally was held Thursday afternoon
at Cony and Coaches Comedian and
Morrell gave short talks, The
cheers and songs were trotted out
and polished up IN anticipation of a
busy time this evening. The school
band will be on hand to furnish
music before the game and at inter-
mission ard they will assist with the
various school songs.
