Notes on the Game

Team work did it.
Bath VS.. Augusta, Friday evening.
Jordan at half back did some strong
work for the visitors. He's a good man.
Barlow's work at halfback was an
Improvement over the last game here.
He hits hard and passes well, and he
plays with his head as we'll as his
hands and feet.
The many friends of w. Fl. Long
were glad to see him, when he stepped
out upon the floor to referee the game,
referee, with voice that can be easily
heard all over the hall.
With the score 2 to 2 in the second
Eeriod the excitement ran high-sky
high Then when Augusta took the
next four out of five, the crowd went
frantic. 1t was the kind of performance
we haven't had for some time now, but
if playing together improves the work,
as it usually does, the Augustus will
make any of them hustle.
Perry, the new man at center, made
very favorable impression. Both he
and Barlow are good on the interfer-
ence, and despite the rough work of
their opponents, they stood out like
stone posts. Perry is fast skater
and afraid of nothing or nobody.
Previous to the game, the Kenne-
\ bee and Valley teams played a tie
game. Score, to 4.
The game was rough, and the end of
it was rougher than the first 1t
seemed to grow on the visitors little
by little that they were getting
licked. " 1t didn't set well. and they
showed that they We're in it to win, any
old way. Everything went until Fur
bush made a fragrant break, and
Referee Long could stand it no longer
With w. Dawson on one side, and j.
Dawson on the other brothers indeed,
it was a case of Greek and Greek. AS
seen from the score they had consider
able to do with things. Now, we'd have
you know that w. Dawson is all right.
When he hits the ball it goes straight
and sure. and he's what generally goes
as "a star"

AUGUSTA WINS easAr GAME.
Dssats Portland Team IN Well Played Cen
test-Tsam Work Did Il.


About 500 polo devotees saw the re-
habilitated Augusta polo team walk
away with the Portland team, Wednes-
day evening, in City hall, in a finely
played contest. The home team won
by score of 6 to 3, outplaying their
opponents individually and collectively.
1t was great game, my brethren; a
great game No better has been seen
in this city. For team that has
played together so little as the home
team in it's present makeup has. it

easily with only one foul-that on Fur

tent of his observation refereed moth
From the start the Augustus did the
best work. w. Dawson. the little first
rusher, not only took the majority of
the rushes but in other ways played
a great game. He handled the passes
made him by Turner with sharp accu-
rate drives, making all the goals for
Augusta, and lot more cracks which
would have been goals-but for the fine
work of Allen who again and again
made the crowd sorry that he was
there.
Turner played his usual lively game.
and passed often and opportunity.
Perry and Barlow also did some well
judged passing, and bothered the con-
fident Portlandites in a way the latter
did not relish.
The offensive as well as the defensive
work Of all of these men was d revela-
ton, and brought the crowd to it's feet,
again and again.
Hackett made a number of his phe
nomenal stops in critical points, and
the way he kicked the ball out of the
way when they gathered around about
him was a caution.
For Portland, J. Dawson, cousin of
"our" Dawson, did the best work
Schofield, Furbush and Jordan play

goal was very able, and he saved many
