SATURDAYS Foot Ball
tGame An Exciting
One.
The Score stood 10 to o,
Ha aeOcks Played N Good Game, But
We're No Match For the Home
ream.

The foot ball game at the Athletic
Park last Saturday afternoon between
the high school teams OF this city and
Hancock wac fairly good exhibition oil
the game, but was little too one sided
to be exciting and the local team had
things their own way during the better
part OF the game, although the score was
good and playing OF both teams showed
that they had good material, but were
lacking in team work when they played
on the defensive. This was noticeable in
both teams to a certain extent, but more
particularly in the visiting team,
The ground was in a bad condition on
account of the snow and mud and the
players were at IA disadvantage on that
account Calumet kicked off in the first
half aud Hancock advanced the ball to
about the center of the field where they
lost it for failing TO make gains. Calu-
met worksd il 10 within the twenty yard
line and Lyons made brilliant run
around the center for a touchdown and
Gilbert kicked goal scoring six points for
Calumet. The ball was put in play
again, but neither side made another
score in this nall and the score stood six
to nothing at the end of the first half.
In the second half Hancock kicked off
and Calumet got the ball and by good
center and end plays made good gains
until the ball was again near Hancock s
goal aud they finally scored another
touchdown, but Gilbert failed in trying
to kick goal on account Of the wet ball
and this left the score 10 to o and a
short time TO play. The second half
came 20 an end with the bali in Caumet's
territory but the outsiders were unable
TO score
The Calumet team tried several new
plays and worked the revolving tandem
on the Hancock line for good gains sew
eral times.
The Hancock team played a good game
when they had the bali, but showed a
lack Of practice in team work and their
line went to pieces very easily. The team
nal some good material, Lynch, Mason
and Sheehen playing a good game.
They lined up az follows: Center, Con-
way; left end, Hosking; right tackle,
Wagner; right guard, McAskill; left
guard, Chamberlain left tackle, MasoL;
lett end, O'Brien; quarter, Burkman; left
half back, Furnier; right hall back, Lynch;
full back, Sheehan.

THE LOCAL DIAMOND.

President Elmer Woodbury. of the Port
land Baseball Association entertained
Portland's new manager, Thomas Nc
Quirk, who was in the city yesterday on
a brief BUSINESS visit to arrange and dis
cuss certain matters pertaining. to the
future of baseball in Portland.
The new manager is very much of a
gentleman. good talker and impresses
one as man of considerable force and
executive ability and evidently is thor
oughly coDversant with the national
game, familiar with the small army of
professional players and unless all reports
are false is a man likely to furnish Port
land with team that is likely to at least
be a credit to the best ball city in Maine.
MIR. McQuirk was unassuming in his
claims and predictions to a TIMES man,
saying that, under the circumstances,
being a stranger to Portland. he thought
it wiser to speak by results when the
team got down to business. ~ will say
one thing" said Mr.. McQuirk, "Port-
land people will have no occasion to
blush for the efforts Of the team the COM
ing season. They vii; play ball all the
time and they will play the best ball they
know how. II they are defeated it will
be because the other fellows put up bet
ter game. Honest and hard ball playing
is always interesting even if the team
loses. Team work is what wins. That
is what I shall aim to get and l believe
we have signed q class OF players that
will fight to this end. They are ball play
ers and they are gentlemen and believe
they will soon become warm ia vorites
with the baseball going public"
In Michigan, where Manager McQuirk
last conducted team, he is spoken most
highly of and President Woodbury. and
the directors believe they have found just
the man for the emergency.
The players already signed the PRESS

They are Charles Myers, catcher; George
A. EngeI, Ralph Miller and Lee Faurot,
pitchers; MoQuirk, first base; Arthur
Nichols, third base; Jacob DIESEL, short
stop; David b. Coughlin, left field, and
Mark Polhemus, center field. For second
base, the management is negotiating,
with good prospects of securing a crack
man who played with one of the New
