pose that Colby was not throwing any
games away just for the fun of defeat

About that College Pennant.

The gentleman who says base ball
things for the Bangor Commercial. for
whom we have the greatest respect
over this way, thinks he has unearthed
a foul and villainous plot to rob the
University of Maine of the college base
ball pennant. Before the games of
Saturday afternoon. fearing that Bates
might get all the games that were
coming that day, the Commercial had
in type and subsequently published. an
article that reflects anything but credit
upon the managers of the Maine col
lege teams who had met the previous
night for consultation. The gentleman
referred to attacks Colby in these
words But what can be expected ii
an institution, whose students rely
upon subsidized athletics to win hon
ors for them on the foot ball gridiron
and THE base ball diamond"
Is this little exhibition of spleen due
to the fact that the ball writer of the
Commercial sees the handwriting oa
the wall, in the possible defeat of the
L. of Nj. team, the manager of which
is directly responsible for the condition
of things that exists today? No one
over here wants to rob the T. of Nj. of
the pennant, but everybody over here
wants the L. of Nj. team to win it if
they get it.
The situation today is just this Each
team in the intercollegiate League has
won and lost three games. The pro-
test of the game between Colby and
L. of NJ. was the greatest farce that
anybody ever sprung on the diamond
True, the managers of Bates and Bow
coin declare that the game must be
played over. That don't look as though
Colby was trying to Jew the Z. of NJ
out of anything, does it? Why Colby
claims the game and the decision of the
managers looks more like an attempt
to rob Colby. Can anybody give any
reason why the managers should make
such decision? No one has to date.
Just bear this in mind. If the rules of
the ball field are to be followed. u. of
NJ. forfeited the game to Colby the
moment the captain took his men off
the field. Beyond this there is no
precedent upon which the judging
managers can base their decision Re-
member this also.
Now listen to this: Colby is decidedly
opposed to the L. of NJ. team winning the
pennant. and so. it is said, the two games
Saturday Will go to Bates. whether on
their merits or not. This will give Bates
the advantage of the u. of NJ by a single
victory. as the schemers argue. sending
the pennant to Lewiston OF course the
L. of NJ. has not objections to the PEN
nant coming to Colby. They only seem
opposed to its going to Lewiston That's
real funny in view of past events. II the

"sehemers" at work on the field in that

The Second Game.

In about 20 minutes after the Colbys
had gone into the gym" they came out
again on the run. Our mutual friend
Atwood had been for some time proph-
esying that the clouds would break
away, and they did. They let us have
all the rain there was in them at the
same time. 1t seemed rather tough to
make them go out into the storm and
play ball. and 1T was tough to sit in I'M
der the grand stand and witness the
dripping water as ii fell upon the up
holstercd furniture, to feel it trickling
down the spinal column and slush
around your feet. But ii had to go,
for we want a chance to make the Uni
versity of Maine hustle for that PEN
ant. Jack Scannell showed up in the
box again as big as life and was down
to pitch another game of five innings.
Well Jack stood up under ii in good
shape. and while / think of it, i don't
know what Colby would have done this
year but for Jack. lie was assigned to
the positions of catcher and third base
and he was reckoned as pretty good at
either job, but when Flood soaked his
finger in raw carbolic acid. as a last
resort, Scannell was put into the box.
1t was expected that Floods finger
would get well and Jack was put in
more as matter of form than any
thing else. but he has developed into a
pitcher who can win games. Bates
guessed pretty close to Jacks curves
at times but he had great support as
the score Of the two games will show.
Pulsifer went up and smashed out
a double and four singles and on an err
ror by Topper the visitors scored four
times Colby got one in the last half
of the first inning, though no one has
been able to find out how.
Bates having such good lead. start
ed the second innig with snap. evident
Iy intending TO keep the home team dis
fanced Bates scored twice in the
second on two singles, an error and a
base on balls Colby reduced the in
terval In their behalf by scoring four
times on a double. four singles and two
bases on balls. This was after Burrill
had been put In the box. The score
was tied.
Three singles and a stolen base was
responsible for the visitors scoring
twice in the third. Colby was shut out
In the fourth, Bates piled up four on
us on three singles, double and two
errors. Colby scored three times on
three singles and two errors. Bates
scored once again in the last inning
on one single and one error. And just
then the silver lining for which our
friend Atwood had been longing for
began to show In the western heavens.
