Dr. John Roach Straton, pas- tor of Calvary Baptist church, has refused to meet Governor Smith in ate in his church on the grounds he pulpit is not the place for a al discussion. Governor Smith had asked to be| allowed to defend himself there | from the attack Dr. Straton made on him from the pulpit of Calvary a} week ago Sunday in which the gov- ernor was called “the deadliest foe of moral progress in the country.” Dr. Straton’s refusal to meet the governor in debate in the pulpit from which he made his charges was made in a statement read to the con- gation in Calvary last night by is son, the Rev. Hillyer Straton, of Philadelphia, who conducted the eve- ning service in the absence of his father who is at his summer home fn Greenwood Lake, N.

Forty thousand packed the Olymp- ic stadium yesterday to witness the official closing of the games, but not even their cheers when the med- als to the winners were awarded could prevent the affair from coming as somewhat of an anti-climax after the breath-taking thrills of actual lll during the past two weel 5. To the Dutch, at least, the biggest sensation was the appearance at the stadium of Queen Wilhelmina and the rest of the royal family. Queen Awards Medals It was none other than the queen. .| who awarded the (at medals, sig- nificant of first places won during Olympic competition. The Prince Consort Henry awarded the silver medals, and Count Baillet-Latour the bronze. Prize winners of all nations lined up in the field and listened while an- unofficially on the usual basis of 10 for first place, 5 for second, 4 for third, 3 for fourth, 2 for fifth, and 1 for sixth. ] Germany won only two champicn- ships—in Gre¢o-Roman wrestling and weirht-lifting—but scored con- sistently in other competitions. The United States took three team titles —in track and field, rowittg, and swimming—all of them of major caliber. Three other branches of sport did not count in the scoring—winter sports, lacresse, and women’s track and field. Tie United States took second place in the winter sports program, won by Norway; second in the women’s track and field compe- tition, won by Canada; and finished in a triple tie with Canada and Great Britain in lacrosse. & MEXICO POLICY 4 IS CONDEMNED Williamstown, Mass., Aug. 13.— (@®)—Secretary Kellogg ‘and te state department were sharply criticized for the policies of the Laited States in Mexico in.an address today befcre the general conference of the Insti- tute of Politics by Prof. David Y.
