Another chapter to’ the now famous Slade-Zwick controversy as to the re- tention of the latter as athletic coach at the High school will be added soon when John Bachulus, manager of the High school football team circulates a petition to have Dr. Zwick retained in spite of the principal's objections.

Simonds of Omaha, Nebraska, Chosen by National Y. M. C. A. E. J. Simonds of Omaha, Nebraska, has been chosen by the International Y. M. C. A. to represent the local as- sociation as a secretary on the battle- fields of Europe, according to advices received by George S. Talcott today. The movement to have New Britain represented in the welfare work being conducted by the Y. M. C. A. in the war zone received its inception at the thirty-second annual meeting of the local association, which was held at the South Congregational church when E. C. Carter, delivering the an- niversary address, told of the wonder- ful work being accomplished by the secretaries. At a meeting of the di- rectors, it was decided to have the city represented by a secretary and a campaign for funds was immediately started. Mr. Carter agreed to furnish a man for the position. Mr. Talcott was appointed treasurer of the fund and through his untiring efforts $1,600 was raised. The nationzl association estimated that $1,200 would send a single man for one year, while $2,000 would take care of a man «and bis wife. The national as- sociation will make up the difference and Mr. Simonds will be accompanied by Mrs. Simonds. Mr. Simonds has long been interested in this sort of work and has been affiliated with various Y. M. C. A. associations dur- ing the past twelve years. About six vear ago, the couple resided in New Haven. In his letter, Mr. Simonds expresses his appreciation for being chosen sec- retary from New Britain and lauds the members for their assistance in the project. He plans to leave for Europe from San Francisco, August 19 and deeply regrets his inability to visit the city before departing. How- ever, he promises to come here on his return.
