MIDDLEBURY s, UNIV. OF MAINE ..
Middebury was very fortunate in
arranging game with the University of
Maine on last week Thursday afternoon.
1t was advantageous from two stand
points, first it gave Nliddlebury some
good hard work and second it gave us an
opportunity to compare our team with
one which had played and defeated
many of the leading college teams of
New England.
While the game resulted in victory for
Maine it was not until the last man had
been called out that the game was
securely in the hands of the visitors.
Middlebury's defeat was due largely to
errors in the fourth inning and inability
to hit with men on bases. Notwith-
standing the unsteadiness of the home
team at times Middlebury put up very
commendable game. The work of the
Fisher brothers battery was exceedingly
good and it was partly due to the pitcher
that the score was very close. He
pitched an excellent game and fielded
his position well.

MIDDLERURY 2, NORWICH 7.
The college team went to Mortified
last Saturday and played Norwich Uni
The day was far from pleasant and the
game was played in a drizzling rain.
The team did not show up as well as
usual but this was probably due to the
fact that one of the best college pitchers
in New England pitched against them.
Norwich had been saving Columbe for
the Middlebury game and had played
their second pitchers against Montpelier
Seminary and Goddard. Columre pitched
a fine game allowing only two hits and
striking out 0 men. Fisher and Farr
were the only men that hit the ball for
Middebury The game was called at
the end of the seventh inning. June
substituted in centef field in place of
Shanahan who was unable to 60. 4
particular feature of the game was the
fact that Middlebury's outfield had no
put outs or errors.
