PORTLAND HIGH SECOND
And Some Thought Our Boys
Should Have First Place.
A HEAVY TRACK BUT WATSON
LOWERED A GOOD RECORD.

The Maine Interscholastic Teams at
Bruuswick-The Girls Turned Out to
Cheer the Boys on-Thompson of Port
land Wins the Bicycle Race.
The games of the Maine Interscholastic
Athletic Association took place on the
Bowdoin Athletic field, Saturday after
noon.
The weather was cold and threatening
and the track very heavy, making record
breaking almost impossible. The schools
which sent teams were Bangor High,
Portland High, Bath High, Brunswick
High, Lewiston High and Hebron Acad-
emy.
The covered stand facing the finish was
crowded with High school girls, who not
withstanding the threatening weather,
came arrayed in light dresses, the many
gay colored silk waists giving a pleasing
dash of color to the scene. In all there
were $50 spectators, all the contesting
schools being well represented Naturally
there was big delegation of Brunswick
High school rooters and the orange and
black banners were vigorously waved.
Bangor had a small and unusually quiet
crowd bus red ribbon here and there
showed that she was not forgotten.
Portland was cheered on by nearly a
hundred enthusiasts, and the boys did
splendid work throughout the meeting.
