STORRS TEAM SECOND IN JUDGING HORSES College Horses Did Well With Dragon, Jr, Second. The standing of the Storrs team in the horss classes at the New England ntest ockton is as follows: 9 e 387.5; Connecticut, . 3525; | ihode - Ialand, 327.5; New Hampshire . The horses judged were particularly hard classes as they averaged over a ton in welght, were all the same color, and practically the same age and in high condition. Both classes were shown at the same time in s small ring, and only a short time was al- Jowed for placing, all of which tended to_confuse the contestants. The horses shown by the Animal Husbandry Department at the Na- tional Dairy Show caused much favor- able comment, and were beaten only by J. Crouch & Son, of Indiana. That Dragon Jr., was entitled to win in his class is the consensus of opin- ion of all who were close observers. This would have given him a cham- pionship in Percheron stallions and while it is no disgrace to stand second to a Crouch entry; it was very disap- pointing not to get the champlonship. The comment of the Breeders' Ga- zette of Chicago follows: “The class for stallions, two years old and under, four brought out Dragon Jr, shown by the Connecticut Agricultural College, a splendid speci- men of the breed. “Ideal” a horse with a_little more scale was placed over Dragon Jr., who was popularly pronounced superior iin confirmation, quality, action and -det ' of legs and Dragon Jr., is & black, weighin: ,750 - poiinds; as a_two -old, he was the popular choice for champion- ship_honor: ' John Buckler, superintendent John A. Spoor, ex-president - of Union Stock Yards, Chicago, for the said periority over the other coli: Dragon Jr. should have easily won in his cl and been champion of the show.” ed Dragon at the Inter- Stock Exposition at Chi won grand that in bis opinicn coit is equal to his sire in every respect and superior . in the stifies.

Enroliment Shows Increase of 29 Per Cent. Over Last Year. The entermg c! at Storrs college numbers 103 this year, an increase of 19 over the entering class of last fail. This is a percentage increase of 29 and an e ally’ good showing for such a year as this. While in most other New England coileges the size of the enterirg s nas decreased this fall, becau: arious reasor here at Connccticut a satisfactory in- crease was sccured. Rhode Island, Massachusetts Agsies and New Hamj shire ace iilustrative of the colleges where entering classes this fall were smaller than usual. Forty-five of the new students have registered in the college courses, as compared with 31 last year. There are more co-eds in the entering class here than there ar» in the first year class at Massachusetts. Many who register- ed failed to appear fcr the opening of college. Inquiries by the cffice re- vealed the fact that all but one of ih 34 who had intentions of entering thi year failed Lo come to college becaus they were holding positions which they did not care to give up.

At the close of a conference of more than two hours’ duration be- tween Attorney C. Hadlai Hull, coun- sel for the plaintiffs, and Attorney Charles W. Field of Baltimore, repre- senting the interests of the Bastern Forwarding Co., a compromise was ef- fected whereby bonds of an amount considerably less than the original attachments were accepted and the attachments were released. The suits were brought to recover damages for the lives of the men lost when the tug T. A. Scott, Jr, was sunk in collision with the Deutsch- land. The Gurney, Caton and Davi- son suits were in_ the sum of $50,900, the Jackson alias Stone suit for $25, 000, and Monday afternoon & new ac- tion was brought by C.

A. Scott, Jr. and the nerve-racking experience of, Capt. Frederick Hinsch, the sole survivor of those on board, when the boat was rammed by the German submersible Deutschland in the Race early last Friday morning, as related by the captain, furnishes the first authentic descripiion of the accident. The story comes from one Who heard the captain tell his experi- ence. Captain Hinsch was standing near district P ling of the consequent ff Tubbs w: upon the deci the pilot house. Neither he nor any members of the crew had a moment’s warning of the impending danger un- til the nose of the tug was plunged | | | | | $'8.’ A N oals $29.50, Velour Coats, Bolivia Coats, Wool Plush Coats, Broadcloth Coats, Seal Plush stocks and service assure your satisfaction. “Where Shopping is a Pleasure” Women’s and A Special Dress Qering FOR THIS WEEK ONLY AT Regular values to $S22.50 The offering comprises about 150 Dresses which we have selected from our regular stock.

The force of the blow hurled him overboard. - As he fell his glance turn- ed toward the pilot house and caught a glimpse of Captain Gurney’s body neared the scene the body of Captain Hinsch appeared on the surface and a rope was thrown to him. He still of the fishing Duzant in- asked the captain smack. “What will you give?" half way through the window of the pilot house. Whether the force of the impact had thrown: the captain’s body through the window, or he was at- tempting to make his escape from the pilot house will never be explained. Engineer William A. Caton and Fireman Edward Stone were not seen after the crash and evidently remain- ed at their posts. Captain Hinsch last saw Clargice Devison, the cook, a few minutes before the accident, when he told Captain Gurney he was going to turn into his bunk for the night. He was in the bunkroom aft of the en- gine room. The whereabouts of Eu- gene Duzant, the deckhand, st the time of the accident, is not known. He had not been seen by Captain Hinsch for some time prior and undoubtedly was trapped with other members of the crew inside the boat. As his body struck the cold water o;p:unflmnach feit s rops hit his band. He grasped it and took a tight €Tip. Then he felt himself being drawn downward. He realized then that the other end of the rope must be attached to the tug and that the tug was sinking. He let go his hold upon the Tope and rose to the sur- face. . S RGO SR luring which he had into. f had strength to reach for the life line and when it was thrown near.him, af- ter several unsuccessful attempts, he caught it and clung to it until he was hauled aboard the tug. The current in the vicinity of the wreck attains a high speed and in all probability Captain Hinsch would have been swept far from the spot, had he not caught a hold upon the which dragged him down. with th® tug. At any rate Captain Hinsch attributes the fact that he is alive to the rope that took him near to the bottom of the Race. Bugene Duzant was'an expert diver and swimmer. Many years of his life were spent in diving for pearls in’thé West Indies. Since going to New London and entering the employ of the Scott Co. he had several oppor- tunities to_demonstrate his ability as 8 diver. On one occasion an auxil iary fishing smack put into New Lon- don and went to the Soott Co. in quest of .a diver. The company’s corps of divers were engaged in another city. Duzant was in the vicinity and over- heard the conversation of the captain and an official of the “I go down,” spoke u “How are you K Smste i ew uired. O Amything you say,” said the cap- tain: “Is $2 too much?” the deckhand asked. With that he went to his bunk room and removing.all his clothes except & pair of overalls, he reappeared and Jjumped overboard. He did not reappedr for a long time, and some of those Dresent expressed fear that he had been drowned, ‘when he suddenly came to the surface. Af- ter e brief rest, he again went down, 2nd on coming up for the secwad time announced that the rope had been cleared from the propeller shaft. The delighted captain paid him $2 and de- @arted. X Among those familiar with Duzant's ability as a swimmer and diver, the opinion is expressed that he wouid be alive today had he not been trapped in the interior of the boat. ‘SANTA CLAUS LETTER Gen.
