the overthrow of the invaders in
the most terrible battle the world
has ever known.
This. in brief, is the prediction
of the Rev Walter Wynn. an Eng.
lish cleric, who has made himself
famous by his predictions of inn
portant events, in his book, What
Will Come to Pass published
here.
his predictions on the Bible and
the Pyramids. made himself the
talk Of England at the beginning
of the world war by foretellirg tho
date when Germany would appeal
for an armistice. Since then lie
has accurately predicted the exact
date of Brands fall prior to the
recent League of Nations fiasco.
Other of his remarkable = predic-
tons have been amply borne out.
THE battle of Armageddon,
say the Rev. Mr.. Wynn, Twill take
place on a triangle, 81 miles on
each side, accommodating all the
armies. of the earth, and it will
prove the theater of the greatest
tragedy ever recorded. Russia, !"
he declares, will make a final
determined effort to clear God and
His Son out of the world. but will
fail, losing 80 per cent of her
army"
The Rev. Mr.. Wynn makes his
boldest prediction on the strength
of Revelations v. IA. He foretells
that, during this battle, when the
kings Of the earth and "the whOle
world are gathered to the fight

Boston Sport
Promoters Had Plan
To Beat Sabbath Law

Boston, April 15.-(P1-A new
scheme for evading the law prohibit
ing commercialized Sunday sport in
Massachusetts, was revealed by the
Boston police today The practice was
said to be in vogue in communities
outside Boston and police depart
ment division heads were warned to
prevent its being attempted here.
According to the warning tags are
sold for Sunday sports events, gen.
orally on Saturday afternoons among
crowds attending games of various
kinds. The spectator wears this tag
when he attends the contest on Sun
day. In communities outside Boston
where the plan has been worked out
promoters are said to have made 1t
unpleasant for persons not wearing
the tags.
This, the police say, is in direct
violation of the law which DEGREES
that no admission fee shall be charg-
ed for Sunday sporting events either
directly or indirectly. officers are
directed to arrest persons thus vio-
lating the law.

Colby Tennis Team

Especial to Kennebec .JournaD
Waterville, Me, April 15.-Cold
weather has caused the early work
outs of the Colby tennis squad to be
restricted to the college gymnasium.
The courts are not yet sufficiently
dry to use but with conditions as
they are at present the men will

contests will be played within ap
proximately one month and will nee
essitate the men being in perfect
physical condition. This early con-
ditioning work has formed the basis
Of the work thus far and will con-
tinue until the men can get out on
the courts. The first tilt on the
schedule is on May list, against the
Augusta Country Club at Augusta,
one Of the greatest rivals of the Col
by men outside OF college circles. The
contests between these two teams
have been very prominent for several
seasons. Although all Of these tour
naments are considered important,
the aim Of the team will be to cap
ture the Maine Intercollegiate title
at the State tourney to be held on
the Colby battle-ground on May 2o-21

Loss of the Service of Will Not Cheer the Braves
SkOWHECAN TEAM
WILL PROBABLY
OPEN CONY SLATE

The cold, raw wind of yesterday
forced the CQny baseball team to take
a vacation from their usual practice
session after school The team has
been having daily training between
two teams from the squad, but figur-
ing that the wind and cold weather
would do more harm than good Coach
Pierce called off the practice. The
alumni game has been given up as
hopeless for Patriots Day.
However, If Cony can get her field
ready in time there will be a game
either at Williams field or Capital
Park Saturday, April "a. Skowhegan
has been in touch with the Cony ath-
letic manager and wants to play in
this city on that date. Cony had no
game arranged for the gath. Show
hogan Just wants one game, that in
Augusta, and is willing to play for no
guarantee, so 1t Is probable that the
two teams clash-if the snow is of
either Of the baseball fields.
Skowhegan has a decisive defeat at
the hands of Cony to avenge and if
the games takes place 1t should be ons
of the best of the season. The Orange
and black team is usually good one
and with several veterans to work for
it is probable that Coach Archie Dos
tie has been developing a very formid-
able cluster of fielders in the Somer-
set county town. The other teams are
experiencing the same difficulty as
Cony in getting started and IL the lid
is officially pried off on the oath the
Red and White will be lucky. Both
Cony and Skowhegan are anxious to
get this early workout and 1t is to be
hoped that the weather conditions will
