Logan, in an attempt to stall for time convinced Winnemac that they were tired of the American cause and were in the process of deserting.
Winnemac was suspicious and the three men were disarmed.
The entire camp was saddened at the news of Logan’s injuries, and the foolish accusation that caused him to return to an area, known to be dangerous, in defense of his honor.

 SparkNotes: Arrowsmith: Plot Overview
This early education is supplemented when he goes off to college and eventually becomes a medical student at the University of Winnemac, where he meets his life-time mentor, Max Gottlieb, a German professor committed to laboratory science and research.
While in medical school, Martin dates a girl named Madeleine Fox, a snobbish, educated doctoral student of literature and becomes engaged to her, only to leave her later for Leora Tozer, a down-to-earth nurse in training, whom he will love and live with until the end of her life.
Also, while at Winnemac, under the wing of Gottlieb, Martin develops a deep-rooted love for the laboratory and lashes out against "commercialism" and the faults of the practicing physician versus the ideals of true science and research.

For the 1990 season, the Angels joined the Winnemac Park Weeknight League, the oldest such league in the City and among the most competitive.
Sighting escalating costs of playing in two separate leagues, and frustration over the politics that took place in the Greater Illinois League, the decision was made to form one, seven day a week league.
The newly christened CMBA was comprised of teams that were playing in both leagues previously, and new additions that wished to join a league that played games beyond the regular weekend schedules.

 'Pure' Science in "Arrowsmith" and in America   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
In his discussion of scientific research at the University of Winnemac, then, Lewis is not so much describing the actual state of research at universities in the first decade of the nineteenth century as he is taking sides in the debate about the proper role of science in academia.
He is arguing that abstract research should be a major focus of the university and that professors should be able to focus on their research rather than tedious and time-consuming teaching duties.
His description of hostile attitudes toward research in universities is not really a reflection of reality, but rather a romanticized depiction of an earlier struggle.
