1O8th Cambridgeshir
To Settle England S
Autumn Double
BY the Associated Press

LONDON, Oct. 24.-The 108th
renewal of the Cambridgeshire
Stakes, Part 2 of the biggest gam
BILE in English racing. will be run
tomorrow at Newmarket.
The result. will determine the fate
of thousands Of bets on the Au-
tumn Double which have been
hanging fire for two weeks.
The Autumn Double is just like
a daily double at an American race
track except that the two races
on which it is based are run two
weeks apart.
The first half of the double is
the Cesarewitch Stakes, won on
October II by King George WIS
Above Board. Coupled with the
winner of the mile and an eight
Cambridgeshire, the double prob
ably will pay out in three figures.
Books Paid 675-1 Last Year.
Last year the bookmakers-
strictly legal in this country-paid
675 to / on the wining double of
Stratnspey and Sterope. The gov
ernment-controlled parimutel sys-
tenn, which also takes bets on the
double paid 239 for /. Both Strath-
spey and Sterope were Is to
shots.
Above Board won this year at 18
to |.
This delayed-agony system long
ago caught the fancy of the Eng
lish horseplayerS. More money
goes down on this combination
than on any other single type
of race betting here.
Americans take a great inter-
est in the Cambridgeshire, al
though most of them have never
heard of any of the horses run
ming. It's one Of four English
races each year on which an Irish
Sweepstakes drawing is held.
The sweepstakes holds no fas-
cination here. BY law the press
and radio can't mention the SUBJ
ject. And if you happen to win
it's illegal to sell tickets-you
won't even get your name in the
papers or your picture in the
newsreels.
Odds Shortened on Socrates.
London's bookmakers showed
again last night that they like
Socrates to win.
The price on the three-year-old
colt from the north of England
shortened from 13 to 2 to 6 to l
at An official callover of odds at
the Victoria Club.
Fastnet Rock, the second
choice, meanwhile. lost a little

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-Because
the late Gen. George S. Patton
was an enthusiastic horseman
horse show fans in the East have
q chance to watch the famed
Spanish Riding School of Vienna
in action.
The Vienna school, founded in
1872. is one of the last institutions
in the world promoting and teach
ing the art of classical riding. The
school teaches and performs the
Haute Ecole form, a colorful spec
tacle featured by maneuvers which
date back to movements employed
by knights in ancient battles.
In giving Americans their first
chance to witness the exhibition
of horsemanship, riders from the
school say they feel they are re-
paying a debt to Gen. Patton and
L, his Sd Army. For were it not for
Gen. Patton and his troops. the
school would not exist today.
Here's how it happened:
The schools history has been
marked by numerous narrow es-
capes from extinction in the wars
which have swirled about it for
centuries. But it faced probably
its greatest danger at the end of
World War II. During the war,
the Germans had forcibly removed
the school to Czechoslovakia, and
after the Allied victory. the riders
found themselves and their horses
in territory occupied by the Rus
slams.
Listed as German Assets.
The schools horses were listed
as German assets" and were fair
game for removal to Russia as war
reparations.
Col. Alois Podhajsky, director,
escaped to upper Austria with the
so pure white Lipizzan stations
used by the school, but was forced
to leave the mares and foals be-
hind.
Thus, the Lipizzan line faced
extinction. The gifted horses,
which the school uses exclusively
were brought from Spain about
1862. Their Spanish blood gives
the school its name. And their
forebears once carried Julius Cae-
sar into battle.
Col. Podhajsky appealed tc
Gen. Patton to place the school
and its horses under the protec-
ton of the American Army. Gen
Patton, after witnessing a special
exhibition of the classical riding
reacted in a typical manner.
''He not only ordered the school,
under protection but sent foul
tanks to Czechoslovakia to bring
back the mares and the foals,
says Col. Podhajsky. "On the
way back, with the horses in tow,
says the colonel, "the tank de-
tachment was stopped by repre-
sentative of the four-poWer COM
mission in charge of property
control. The representative in
formed the captain of the tank
detachment that he could net re-
move the mares until the COM
mission decided who owned them
School Together Again.
Pointing to his tanks, the cap
tain answered. My orders are tc
bring back the mares unless pre-
vented by superior force There
was no further argument and the

pounds. Blind trolling produced
only one more smaller fish over
the next two hours. the school
evidently having moved off the
location.
The sight of the big fish feed
ing on top right in front of the
oyster boats proved too much for
the oystermen. They hauled in
anchors and went trolling. There
was quite bit of excitement for
a short period. We did not see
them land any fish, however.
The fish surfaced only once
more, briefly. about S pm. and
this time farther away. They
sounded before we could get to
them. But each of US again
hooked them. Two were lost be-
cause of interference by another
boat. Ours was a nice one. too.
Bob Eaves played his fish out
nicely and finally boated it. It
weighed nearly 10 pounds.
Fish Still Are There.
While we caught only six fish.
we had a lot of fun. Lusby lures
with yellow heads were our bats,
They wouldn't take spoons. Capt.
Bridges says the fish will stay in
this locality for another two
weeks. He may be telephoned at
st. Michaels 34-F-2.
Both fish we lost were hooked
at the end of nylon line. All fish
landed were caught with wire or
linen line. Frankly. we're very
skeptical of trolling with nylon.
There is so much stretch in it
when you have SO yards out that
you just do not hook the fish. nor
do you have the feel of him as he
plays. The fish either hooks him
self securely or you lose him.
We've had this same, experience
in casting for black bass, While
they require much more care and
do not last as long. from now on
we're sticking to linen or wire
lines-linen for surface trolling
and wire for deep trolling.

Box Burying Ceremony Originated
as Idea of California Student

A young California student of two decades
ago toyed with an idea, turning it over and
in his mind until he shaped it into con-
crete plan. The idea concerned a method of
getting alumni to return to their alma mater
for homecoming reunion. The idea became
reality, and that young and his idea were
the intiators of the annual box ceremonies.
The youth was Walter krehbiel, son of Rev.
H. j. krehbiel, a member of the first board of
trustees of Bluffton College. His idea was to
have each graduating class bury a box in
College Hall walk, containing the class history
and prophecy, class day program, and pictures
and letters from the class members. After ten
years, all the classes pledged to return to
dig up the boxes, compare notes. and reminisce
their former days at Bluffton
Krehbiels plan has since been revised so that
each class now returns every ten years to look
the contents of their box and add new
letters, pictures, and statistics. Letters of
prediction, buried at the time of graduation,
when read again after ten years, often prove
very amusing, and often surprisingly accurate
The ceremony, initiated in 1880, has continued
annually since that time.
The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1950-05-25

The box containing each class record is OF
copper sheeting and is topped with an appro-
priatey designed plate. The design on this
plate was at first intended to be standard one
for each year, but at the suggestion of Profess
J. z. Klassen, Buttons art instructor, it
was decided that each class should be response
BILE for designing and making a plate for their
box. Ed Good, engineer at the college, did the
casting of these plates in the initial years of
the ceremony.
The plate for the box of the class of 1850
designed by Dorothy Hurley and made by
Michael Munkascy. Mike had almost completed
his work on the plate before he went home,
where his unexpected death occurred Professor
klassen finished the remaining details 1t is
fitting that of Mikes last works should be
this plate depicting pictorially the progress in
Christian education of Blutfton College in its
first fifty years.
This year marks the twentieth annual box
ceremony of the graduating classes of Bluffton
College. With each succeeding year, new let
ters, new ideas, and new records are buried for
future reference. And so an embryo idea in
the mind of creative student has grown into
another of Bluffton's fneNtraditions.

Debaters Grated
At Great Length

The first intercollegiate debate
in the history of the college was
held in April, 1917. This was a
triangular meet in which Bluffton,
Findlay, and Ashland participated.
Professor Howe, a former debate
coach, was a member of one of the
teams, the other two members be-
ing Scudder Welty and Charles
Trachsel. The other Bluffton team
was composed of Waldo Schumacher,
Vernon Ramseyer and G. T. Soldner.
The question for debate was, Re
solved, that the Philippine Islands
should be given their independence.
In 1880, under the direction of
Professor Howe, Bluffton turned the
tables by administering a defeat to
crack Wittenberg team. The net
result was a quadruple tie for first
place among Bluffton, Capital, Wit
tenberg and Muskingum.
On account of World War number
two and the lack of interest, debate
has been discontinued on the campus
since 1912.

cultural center of the college and
community.
Lincoln Hall, built in 1924, was
the result of a local and student
drive for funds. Following the
second World War, the influx of new
students necessitated the purchase OF
three new homes-Lehman and
Hirschy Cottages and Sauder Home
all of which adjoin the campus. Last
year the cornerstone was laid for
Buttons newest addition, Founders
Hall. which will serve the college
and community in the capacity OF
auditorium gymnasium.
Throughout these years OF ma
terial, intellectual, and spiritual
growth, the college has been guided
by leaders who have given outstand-
ing Christian service to the nstltu-
ton and to its ideals.
Presidents
DR.. n. C. Hirschy, scholar and
forward-looking leader, piloted the
newly-founded college in its initial
years. Following his resignation IN
1908, DR.. S. X. Mosiman was ap-
pointed to the presidency. This
devoted leader gave twenty-five years
of faithful and self-sacrificing labor
to Bluffton College, guiding 1t
through years of uncertainty and
financial difficulties.
DIR. Mosiman was succeeded by
Rev. A. S. Rosenberger, who accomp-
lished the task of unifylng the
forces and working toward a sound
financial basis in a period of nation
wide economic instability. He resign
ed after three and one-half~ years of
service because of i'll health, and was
followed by DR.. Lloyd L. Ramseyer,
present administration head.
During the thirty-fve years since
Blutfton College granted its first
A. B. degree, nine hundred eighty
two A. B., ffty-three B. S., sixty
B. S. NJ, and seven honorary degrees
have been conferred.
Curriculum Expanded
The curriculum has been greatly
expanded at Bluffton College during
the fifty years and this year new
Department of Elementary Education
has been added. From few courses
in typewriting and penmanship,
which were completely dropped at
one time, the business department
has expanded until today major in
both business and economics is avail
able. The division of speech has
grown in a few years to the place
where a minor in it is now possible
at Bluffton.
The college has always been noted
for the strong department of music,
still one of its most important fields.
The work done by the Choral Society
and the Vesper Choir serve to ac-
quaint the public with the achieve
ments of the Bluffton music depart
ment.
Improvement of buildings and adj
dition of new ones, as well as ex-
pansion in the curriculum, has served
in the growth of Bluffton College.
New Building
The addition of Founders Hall will
enable Bluffton College to increase
it's usefulness as an educational
center. Recreational, social and
cultural needs will be served better
by this new $2S0,000 auditorium
gymnasium. Approximately IS per-
cent of the funds have been raised.
The contractor has said that the
basketball floor will be ready for use
