On Monday evening, April 24, at 8:15 o'clock, Professor Fritz Heit-mann, organist of the Cathedral in Berlin, will play an organ recital on the Martha Cochran Organ in the Cochran Church of Phillips Academy. Professor Heitmann is one of the greatest of the contem-porary organists, a consummate artist, and a delightful personality. He plays at the United States Mili-tary Academy at West Point the day before his appearance in An-dover. He is playing one of the most stupendous programs ever presented at Phillips.

There will be an admission charge of fifty cents.

Did you enjoy "The Enchanted April" sponsored by the Adven-turers two years ago? Then we think you should not overlook "The Middle Watch," to be presented un-der the same auspices on April 18. Of course the title has no refer-ence to the weather, which is far from enchanting this April. We can do nothing about that. But fun and laughter have their importance as well as spring sunshine, and "The Middle Watch" promises an abun-dance of hilarity.

Act one takes us to a tea dance aboard H. M. S. Falcon, in the China Seas. Of course every girl enjoys such an affair, where the gentlemen greatly outnumber the ladies.

As Fay Eaton, Carol Orr shows a polite interest in everybody and everything and an appropriate ab-sorption in Captain Randall, her fiancee, played by Richard Cooper —very natty in the uniform of the Royal Marines.

Those of us old-fashioned enough to know about chaperones will sympathize with Fay in her at-tempts to make the militantly vir-tuous Charlotte Hopkinson see rea-

Hurricane Pictures To Be Shown Tonight The telephone company's excel-

lent pictures of the hurricane, taken during and after the storm, will be shown by the local district manager, Edwin Bramley, at the meeting of the Service club to-night in the Square and Compass club hall. Mr. -Bramley will also present three other motion pic-tures, entitled "Voices in Paper," "News in Views," and "Safeguard-ing the •Speechways."

At the next meeting a repre-sentative group of Punohard boys will give a demonstration of ap-paratus work in connection with their physical education classes. This exhibition will be under the direction of Donald Dunn and it will be held at the Memorial gym-nasium.

North Main Street Work To Commence

The long-delayed construction of an extra lane on North Main street from Stimson's bridge southerly to near the corner of Harding street will apparently start soon, signs having been placed there warning motorists that there's construction ahead. The job was voted as a chapter 90 project at the hurricane town meeting last fall, and the state a short time later awarded the contract.

son for accepting a dinner invita-tion aboard ship. Sir Neville Cham-berlain himself makes no more em-phatic use of his umbrella than does Gladys Hill in the role of Char-lotte. And she seems about as suc-cessful in keeping the machinery moving smoothly! (How should an irate spinster accidentally shut up in a ship's compass room, be ex-pected to appreciate a gyro com-pass?)

Of course the breezy American attitude is desirable as a foil to all the dignity of an English tea, so Thisbe Grieco appears, in the role of Mary Carlton, who knows that every man is susceptible to flattery—even bachelor 'Captain Maitland and the blustering Ad-miral.

The traditional squabble be-tween marines and sailors is en-thusiastically carried on by Wil-liam Hughes as Marine Ogg and Robert Bisset for the jolly tars. We promise you you are going to love Cockney Marine Ogg, conscientious in his duties even when it means doing sentry duty in his stocking

Salvation Army Fund Continues To Mount

Andover citizens are still re- sponding to the appeal of The Salvation Army for funds with which to carry on their work for another year. To General Chair-man Edward A. Anderson, this is gratifying indeed and with the total suscribed to date $ he is confident that the $1,500 goal will be reached.

There are still a number of workers who have yet to complete their prospect list, and a few fac-tories to hear from also. The mail appeal continues to come in, and those who have not answered by mail as yet, are urged to do so in the interest of the Drive.

Adjutant Charles Johnston, local Greater Lawrence commander of Army work, in issuing a statement said: "I want to thank every worker for their interest and ef-fort put forward in our behalf. I also wish to thank every contribu-tor to our cause for the response given which so tar is splendid in-deed."

Auditors Make Suggestions on Sewers, Infirmary

A number of recommendations to the town authorities were made by the state auditors as a result of the annual audit held early in the year. Old sewer assessments with an uncollected -balance of $2668.78 still showing on the balance sheet again caused the auditors their an-nual concern and again prompted the recommendation that they be settled. These are assessments made prior to 1926 when the assess-ing procedure was far different than it is today. In another section of the report they suggested that there are some outstanding sewer connections long overdue, and it was recommended that a deposit be required in advance hereafter proportionate to the cost of the in-stallation.

It was pointed out that part of the receipts at the Convalescent home are used to compensate the matron, this according to the audi-tors being in violation of section 35, chapter 41, and section 53, chap-ter 44, G. L. It was recommended that the entire compensation be paid from an appropriation and all receipts •be paid directly to the town treasurer.

Adopt Resolutions On Mr. Boutwell's Death

The following resolutions on the passing of Frederic S. I3outwell, long-time trustee of the Memorial Hall library, were adopted last Tuesday at a meeting of the trustees:

Frederic S. Boutwell Born October 30, 1865

Died February 16, 1939 At their meeting on April 4, 1939,

the Trustees voted to adopt this minute on the death of Mr. Bout-well and resolved to spread it up-on their records and to send a copy of it to Mr. Boutwell's family and to his fellow citizens through the Andover Townsman.

At a joint meeting of the Trus-tees of the Memorial Hall library and the Selectmen of the Town of Andover, Mr. Boutwell was chosen a Trustee of the Library May 10, 1898 to succeed the late James B. Smith. On June 14, 1898 the Trustees chose him as their Secre-tary and as their Treasurer.

He honored these offices for ris-ing forty years, or until his death February 16, 1939.

His business interests brought to these offices an understanding loy-alty.

His records are complete and re-flect the spirit ,of the meetings. His service covers a period of co-operation with two librarians only, Mr. Ballard Holt and Miss Edna A. Brown. He delighted to bring to solution the particular problems of library administration. He cared for the steadily increasing invested assets of the Library with marked fidelity as though they were of his own property. He had a helping hand for any worthy undertaking which would enhance the use of the Library as an integral part in the growth of a more enlightened An-dover.

He was an honorable citizen, a personality radiating friendliness, and withal co-operative in spirit, kind, even-tempered, uttering never a word that hurt. prompt and ready to perform the manifold duties entailed upon his position in the Community.

Lawrence Mayor Criticizes Legislature

"We can raise so much money. You go out and get the rest." This is what the state legislature says to the cities and towns, according to Mayor Walter Griffin of Law-rence in an interesting address given last Thursday night at the Square and Compass dab annual banquet. The mayor placed the responsibility for the present situ-ation on both the legislature and the citizenry.

If it weren't for the huge in-crease in state tax this year, he said, the tax rates in nearly every city and town in thO state would be lower than they were last year. His own city of Lawrence, he told the audience, is faced with heavy welfare expenditures and a heavy state tax, aggravated by loss of valuation's due to the removal of industries, the loss of the machin-ery tax, and a decrease in receipts from the income and corporation taxes.

The voters themselves, in de-manding so many additional ser-vices, are largely responsible for the state expenditure increase from $55,000,000 to $99,000,000, and the legislature has failed to provide the money for it.

A large group attended for the annual festivities. President Row-land Luce presided.

Through a fast-moving,—almost dizzying in tact, Act two, Harold Wennik, Richard Cooper, Geoffrey, Nicoll, as the ranking officers, try valiantly to keep comfortable an increasingly testy Admiral and two very personable 'but unplanned-for lady guests. They are ably assisted by the aforementioned Marine Ogg and his Corporal (Charles Armi-tage), not to mention Ah Fong. We claim that Everett Gorrie is prob-ably the greatest little Scotch Chinaman afloat.

Problems multiply and dark clouds thicken when Lady Hewitt (Margaret McFarlin to you) and her daughter Nancy. (played by the same Betty Carmichael who charmed us all in the Punchard production of "Twelfth Night") ar-rive and discover all the other ladies. But don't alarm yourselves; a perfectly sound and satisfactory explanation is forthcoming.

ORGANIST, PIANIST PROGRAM FRIDAY

A program of organ music and songs will be presented by Mr. Kenneth H. Wilson and Mrs. Mer-vin E. Stevens at the South Con-gregational church on Friday eve-ning, April 14th, at 8:15. The church is justly proud of its organ and of its organist and it will be a real treat to hear Mr. Wilson in selections which will show its full range of beauty and variety. Mr. Wilson is well known to many out-side the South church through his connection with radio work. He is Director of Music for WHDH as well as staff organist at that sta-tion. Mrs. Stevens is well known to Andover audiences. Mr. Wilson will accompany her.

There are no tickets for admis-sion to the recital. All who are in-terested are cordially invited to come. However, since Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Stevens wish to assist in the work of raising money for the church renovation fund, a silver collection will be taken.

Punchard Service Club To Publish Bi-Weekly Replacing "Punch Harder"

The best P. T. A. program of the year was given last night on the floor of the Shawsheen gym when about 170 children presented a varied program before a large and admiring audience. The principal, Miss Anne Harnedy, welcomed the gathering, and introduced the physical instructors, Mr. Townsend and Miss Cordit, who were in charge of the program. Miss Miri-am Sweeney, supervisor of music, played the musical numbers. The business meeting was dispensed with.

Miss Harnedy's room won the banner.

Andover Youth Hostel Receives Official A. Y. H. Charter For 1939

roe Smith established the first hostel in Northfield, Massachusetts. In that year, American Youth Hostels, Inc., became the twentieth association to belong to the Inter-national Youth Hostel Conference. Each year has shown an increase in the number of hostels and hos-telers. In 1938 there were 184 hos-tels in the United States which re-ported a total of 26,495 overnights. tional development.

The Guild will be the local 'hos-tel, arrangements having been made to carry on the usual meet-ings, etc., that are held there dur-ing the summer.

Some New Medicine, Doctor? Dear Mr. President:

So you really feel that there is an urgent need for that extra $150,000,000 for the W. P. A.? Yes, of course you are to be commended for thinking of the unemployed, but honestly if your policy of prim-ing the pump this way is any good at all, why in the world should there still be such an emergency? You started this pump-priming 'way back in '33, you know, and if that method is any good at all, why does it take so long for it to work? The fellow that's doing the priming—no, not you, the taxpayer —gets pretty tired after six years, and he's apt to get more than tired when he sees that the only result you can see from all his pump-priming is a need of more pump-priming.

If you insist on continuing the W. P. A., why at least don't you cut the appropriation down so that it will cover only those who need it? And we mean those who need help, not those who have very loyally given help. But in the mean-time, why don't you start thinking of something else? Why for in-stance don't you .give a little thought toward getting people back into the mills rather than into ditches?

If a doctor were treating you for six years with the same medi-cine and it didn't cure you, wouldn't you ask him to try some other medicine? And if he wouldn't do that wouldn't you try another doctor?

The best newspaper editorial of the week was the one in the Itali-an paper which suggested that the United States should mind its own business.

Headline: "Greece Satisfied with Fascist Guarantee To Respect Its Frontiers." Headstone: "Here Lies Czechoslovakia, Whose Frontiers Were Guaranteed."

• • • "State regulation of expenditures

in cities and towns which have tax rates 'above the average' is being considered by legislative leaders." Good idea, if only the state regula-tion of its own expenditures weren't one of the reasons for the above-average tax rates.

• • • The principal reason why the

legislators won't repeal the veter-ans' preference law is that they're mindful of the veterans' preference on election day.

BUNDLE TEA TONIGHT Mr. M. Lawrence Shields, in-

structor in Biology at Phillips, will be the guest speaker at the Bundle Tea in the Christ church parish house this evening at 8:00 o'clock. The Girl's Friendly Society and the Junior Women's Guild have been in-vited to atend.

The Andover Youth Hostel has received its official AYH Charter for 1939 from National Head-quarters of American Youth Hos-tels, Inc., at Northfield, Massachu-setts. Members of the sponsoring committee who have already taken out their AYH passes are: Select-man Roy Hardy, Rev. A. Graham Baldwin, Mrs. C. Carleton Kimball, Mrs. Walter D. Pike and Miss Katherine Walsh.

Miss Katharine Walsh, 'house-parent of the hostel, is preparing for a busy season. Miss Ruth Hardy, daughter of the local select-man and a student at Middlebury College, has been interested in Hostels for some time and at her Punchard graduation a few years ago she gave a very interesting talk on the movement as her 'honor address.

Hikers, bikers, skiers, boaters—all who travel under their own steam---sre welcome at youth hos-tels, which are generally located about 15 miles apart along hiking or biking trails and waterways. The AYH pass costs $1 for those under twenty-one, $2 for those twenty-one or over, and admits the holder to over four thousand hos-tels in twenty countries the world over, including the 184 hostels in the United States.

The founder of the youth hostel movement was Richard Schirrman, a school teacher in Central Europe. He took his students out of the smoky city to the clean beauty of the hills and countryside, where he made arrangements for them to stay overnight in neighboring schools and farms. In this way the idea of youth hostels was born. His first European hostel was opened in 1910 in the Castle of Al-tena, a twelfth-century castle. It was not long before hostels were spreading into other countries, gathering recognition and commen-dation. Educators led the way; peace leaders saw in hosteling a practical way to build internation-al friendships. An International Youth Hostel Conference was called in Amsterdam in 1932. Similar conferences have been held each year: representatives of the youth hostel associations have met to discuss their problems and ways to encourage international hosteling.

Youth hosteling came to Ameri-ca in 1934, when Isabel and Mon-

Townsmania "What shall I speak about?"

Lawrence's Democratic Mayor Griffin was a bit puzzled last week as to just what should be his topic at the Square and Compass club annual banquet in Republican An-clover. Finally, he ventured to se-lectman Roy E. Hardy: "Should I tell about the accomplishments of the Democratic administration?" "Oh, no," replied Roy, "we want you to give a longer talk than that."

You really should have seen that bunch of bids, alternatives and so forth that the Board of Public Works had to untangle. Hours, even days. they spent on them in order to straighten out all the in-tricate details mentioned by the competing firms. Finally, one of the members, on the point of reach-ing for an aspirin or maybe two as-pirins, suggested a solution that we might many hours before have de-cided upon: "Aw, let's buy the red one." (To you fellows down on the corner; he said it as a joke.)

B. P. W. Trucks Due Here By Week-end

The five new B. P. W. trucks are expected here the latter part of the week, and three regular drivers and one spare have been named to man the trucks to be used exclusively for B. P. W., while four regulars and two spares have been appointed from the W. P. A. to drive the other two trucks in half-week shifts.

The B. P. W. drivers: Earl Pow-ers, Guy Conkey, William A. Ronan, and spare, Herbert Brown.

The society, organized to bring together all the persons interested in archaeology in the state, will also consider a number of other projects, with one com-mittee scheduled to start soon on a compilation of bibliographical references.

Douglas Byers and Fred Johnson

of the academy archaeological so-ciety each read a short paper on the role of such a society in Massa-chusetts. The new president, Maurice Robbins, and the secre-tary, Edward Brooks, were among the others who offered remarks during the afternoon.

The (society will meet semi-an-nually, the next meeting •to be in Holyoke next October.

In Easter Season

Easter was cer-tainly full of sur-prises. All the snow miraculous-ly disappeared to allow the custom-ary egg-rolling to proceed unencum-bered. Cons e-

quently, it is still an unsolved prob-lem whether eggs roll better on grassy slopes or ski trails. It might have been fun to watch an Easter egg go shushing down a hill, es-pecially if it tried a gelandesprung. Even so, we're glad we live here instead of down south. Imagine Washington, D. C., with its popu-lation many, many times larger than ours, and the children only have the White House lawn on which to roll their eggs. Here we are with a hill to every family—almost.

When the sun has managed to sneak out from be-hind the clouds the past few weeks, you probably have given some thought to your garden. It's about time for ,Old Sol to stay around at least semi - permanently now, but sun or no sun, you really must make plans for that "best garden you've ever had," during the coming week, Na-tional Garden Week. You won't have to envy the one next door this year if you secure the services of an expert, not only in planning your garden but in caring for it during its branching, budding, and blossoming. Heinrich Rohrbach, the creator of Andover's Own Nur-sery, Heatherfelis, down on Sunset Rock road, is well qualified to as-sist you in any garden problem from the most minute one to the complete landscaping of your prop-erty. Incidentally, if you want to have something out of the ordin-ary, ask him about the heather and the edelweiss which he has de-veloped here in Andover. He's probably the first horticulturist who has been able to develop these plants hardy enough to withstand New England's rigorous clime.

In the spring a young man's fancy turns to thoughts of the girl whose thoughts are turned to •a new permanent — es-pecially if she

She knows that the secret of hair health is the reconditioning treatment and oil shampoo that are given by experts before every per-manent, but he only knows that her hair is soft and shiny and becom-ingly arranged. Call 1136 for an ap-pointment and let the spring sun find your hair alive and bright.

A sister of the , bridegroom, Miss Mary Casey, was maid of honor and was dressed in blue, with blue taffeta gown, blue turban and blue acces-sories.

Dopey And Pals At Addison Gallery

Is Dopey art? Although the pres-ent exhibition at Addison Gallery for the most part traces the devel-opment of the Walt Disney cartoon from the preliminary sketches of models to the photographing of the final celluloids, the most outstand-ing impression of the drawing is the indisputable quality of realness that exists even in the most fan-tastic characters. The artists, and there are hundreds of them work-ing on a single picture, are able to take the characteristics and habits of animals, personify them, and produce models that appeal to our logic as well as our imagination.

"Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," the classic example of the animated cartoon, contained many scenes that, if not art, were deft-

nitely artistic. Dopey, himself, al-though the ugliest and most ridicu-lous of the dwarfs, is a master-piece in animated characteriza-tion. Painstaking drawing of his clothing and even his expressive ears help to keep him true to form and as a result he becomes as real as an important historic character. Art? Maybe not, but he'll be in the gallery until May 10, and invites your consideration.

It will be an all-girl cast at the Punchard graduation this year, with all the honor parts being won by girls. Two Ethels, Brierly and Cherowbrier, had a close fight for the valedictory, with the former

The present tax situation and the possibilities of making any changes Baptist Church in it were discussed last Thursday night at the annual banquet of the Elects Officers Young Men's Republican club by Speaker Christian Herter of the House of Representatives. He spoke of the present situation in the Bay State's industrialized com-munities where relief costs have skyrocketed and are eating up a large amount of the tax income. A comparison with the Southern states was offered, with the speaker pointing out what we had to com-pete with here with our higher taxes, higher living costs, etc.

The state is 90% industrial, he said, and we should try to make conditions here attractive both to retain the old and to secure new in-dustries. We're swimming with weights on at present, he said, one of the principal weights being the high real estate tax here. When asked later what he would suggest in place of the real estate tax, he said that he was not prepared to

state at present. He mentioned the suggested increase in the cigarette tax which seems to have been more or less given up, and then added that many of the legislators felt that the logical place to assess more heavily would be incomes. He mentioned the plans to curtail, and said that it would involve dif-ficulties in some departments where shorter hour trends have meant more employees. There may be substantial savings in some of the non-productive departments, he added.

County commissioner Fred But-ler spoke briefly about redistrict-ing, and State Senator Frank D. Balbcock also spoke on the present problems facing the legislature. Other speakers introduced by Presi-dent Richard ZecChini were Mrs. Ralph Herrick, Mrs. M. Phillips Graham, J. S. Nolan, secretary of the state Republican club; Rep. Edward D. Sirois, and Merchant Cross of Haverhill, Republican Dis-trict chairman.

Phillips academy's teams, kept pretty much indoors since the boys returned last week, are hop-ing to see some outdoor competi-tion on Saturday, but ground condi-tions may again make the cancel-lation of the events necessary. Yesterday the baseball team was scheduled to open against Tufts fresh and the lacrosse team was supposed to meet the strong Bos-ton Lacrosse club, but it was im-possible to play the games.

Patsy Donovan, whose boys may meet Thayer Saturday, is facing the season with less gloominess than you might expect at the loss of Ted Harrison, thrice hurler in Andover victories over Exeter. Hal Chase and Joe Phelan are on hand and though less spectacular than Ted last year, they both turned in some mighty good performances. Cahill and Ed Lanagan, a new man, will also see some action on the mound. Patsy's not worried at all about the infield; he has cap-tain Junie O'Brien back at short-stop, Pete Dudan will again be at second, Bill Hart will be at the hot corner, and at first base Tommy Whelan will probably get the call. Jumbo Welch should be back be-hind the plate, but there's a young

who is looking good in this posi-tion and at bat. If Jumbo secures the catching berth, Brennan will probably play in the field, along with Jack Walsh and any one of a number of potentialities.

Coach Shepard has a few shin-ing lights in his track squad, prin-cipally Doug Pirnie in the dashes, Lew Reisner in the half, Maurie Gould in the jumps, Jackson in the broad and the javelin, Vern Wil-liams in the shot and discus, and Barney Rafferty in the hammer.

Coach James had a good list of lettermen back for lacrosse, in-cluding Charley Arnold. Phil Allen is giving up his golf coaching, with William Brown and Robert Sides taking over. Lettermen are Greer Hardwicke and Ace Williams. Ten-nis prospects are good, with four lettermen being augmented by an-other quartet of promising players, including Green who last year was one of the South's prominent in-terscholastic players.

Miss Betty Carter of Lowell street has resumed her studies at the Chamberlain School, Boston, after enjoying her Easter vacation.

After several postponements due to the poor weather conditions, head coach Eugene V. Lovely fin-ally got his baseball practice started yesterday, with 20 .boys re-porting. Mr. Lovely, assisted by faculty manager Joseph B. Doher-ty, is raced with the task of whipping together a club to com-pete against Tewksbury high at Tewksbury one week from Friday, in the opening game of the Merri-mack Valley Suburban league.

Head coach Lovely starts away on his twenty-eighth Spring cam-paign with about ten veterans from last season's squad, includ-ing four experienced pitchers. Ex-cept for the pitcher's box, that cen-ter of the diamond axis has been hard hit by graduation. Wilbur Sanborn, veteran catcher of two seasons, while still in school, is over age. There will be a free for all battle for this position, with Tom Noyes, Howard Procter, George Brown and Dick Gordon as the leading candidates. Noyes had some experience with the club last year, and Procter, a better than average pitcher, caught quite a few games for the local Legion team last summer, and may have to put on the armor if the others do not show enough hitting ability.

The pitching duties should be capably handled by captain Doug Howe, Ferguson, Warren and Calvin Deyermond, and Procter, when and if the latter does not catch. All are experienced and capable, and, barring accidents and sore arms, should be able to match any staff in the league.

Following along that imaginary axis, we come to the second com-bination. This area was patroled last year by captain Don Spinney at second and Harold Walker at shortstop. Both have since gradu-ated. Replacing these two steady defensive players and strong hitters will be a large order. Walker was perhaps the most valu-able player in the league last sea-son.

Alfred White, captain of basket-ball during the past season, and shortstop for the Legion last year,

is the leading candidate for Walker's position. Walker Lindsay, a fine hitter, is expected to take over the keystone assignment. Don-ald McLauchlan, captain-elect of football and basketball for next year, is the only returning veteran in the infield. Last season he covered the hot corner, but this year he may be shifted to short be-cause of his strong throwing arm.

First base will be wide open, and the man who can hit can place his glove on the bag. Forbes and Grant are leading candidates, but if neither one can hit, Howe and Warren Deyermond will probably divide the assignment.

Center field, the extremity of the axis, along with the other two out-field positions, is wide open. Bill Anderson is the only experienced outfielder. He is strong defensively, but weak at the bat. Bob Burnham, a sophomore, may be able to take over the left field spot vacated by "Flash" Gordon. He is a good fielder and possesses a very strong arm, but his ability to hit is problematic. Right field has no leading candi-date at' this point. A strong left-handed batter could probably take over this position without much trouble.

In the final analysis, with better than average pitching, and pros-pects for a good defensive infield, the boys who can hit will be the Andover will be out to repeat their near runaway victory of last ones who will get the call.

Jim Cavalieri's defending cham-pions from Johnson high in North year. Their main strength will be in the box, where the veterans Banker, a righthander, and Miller, a southpaw, will be among the top notch hurlers in the league. How-ever, replacing such stars as Sulli-van, Corum, Barwell and Evange-los, seems to be a rather large or-der at this writing.

Methuen, led by Donald Ball, a former local resident, will be out to prove that football is not the only game which they play well.

With Ralph and Shuter among the headliners, Coach Ernie Ramsbot-ham should cause a lot of trouble before the season is over.

If Tewksbury can come through with some good pitching, their customary defensive strength may take them a long way. In Webster they have perhaps the strongest hitter ‘in the league. A glaring mound weakness hampered them last season.

George Knightly at Chelmsford can be depended upon to come up with at least one good pitcher, and a hustling ball club. George usual-ly has his club right up there.

Howe high of Billerica and Har-old Driscoll's Wilmington team may spring a surprise on some of the favorites. The former are always especially hard to beat on their own field.

The Punchard schedule: April 2] at Tewksbury; April 25, Howe; April 28 at Wilmington; May 12, Chelmsford; May 15 at Howe; May 17 at 'Methuen; May 19, Wilming-ton; May 23, Tewksbury; May 26, Johnson; May 31 at Chelmsford; June 2 at Johnson; and June 7, Methuen.
