S. 5,s. Beat Dartmouth Lemons"

The Dartmouth Freshman "Lemons"
got squeezed at Mccall park Saturday
afternoon BY the S. BIS. in close ball
game. The "Lemonsn comprised four
members Of the regular Dartmouth Fresh
man team, with other freshmen TO fill out
Among the number were three Randolph
boys, Grant at third, j. Goodhart at short
and yall at center. The team played
good bali, but lost the game through poor
throwing, all OF the 5. BIS. runs coming
in that way. Rich was not hit hard,
while Bass. who now wears an >. Is. shirt,
kept up his effective work. Both sides
fielded we'll.

With the return Of the college men, it
would be possible to organize a fine town
team to do battle with the 5. BIS.
In various parts OF the state have been
organized this year county leagues or val
lev leagues, including teams from nearby
towns that hold a series of games, giving
good, interesting baseball. A few years
ago league of this kind did well in this
locality. In it Bethel, Rochester, South
Royalton and Randolph joined, the cham
pionship coming to Randolph. With the
present interest in baseb and the large
number of good local players available, il
ought to be possible to organize a White
River Valley Baseball league including the
above towns, and in addition Sharon,
Hartford and perhaps Barnard. Fans,
think IL over.

notwithstanding the next election in
Delaware is now more than wear off
there Is being manifested an unusual
amount of interest in the political situa-
ton as 1t Is to-dav, and probably will be a
year hence. There are indications poipt-
ing to very radical rearrangement re-
aligr ment and reorganization of the Re.
publican party, which Is, undisputabv.
necessary for its future success. There
are so many factions within the party
the smallest OF which may be an iinpor-
taht factor at the election, that it is appar-
ent to every political student that These
divergent and conflicting forces must be
brought together in order to escape the
certainty OF disastrous defeat With
the possibility of such reorganization Of {
the party, and Of its forces, the outlook |
Tor success next year is hopeful. OfI
course tins condition is not pleasure Civ
ing to the Democrats, who are not with.
out their own troubles. They will do
possible to discourage bar-
nony among and reorganization bv the
republicans for the reason that during
ne last ten years the Democrats long suit

republicans. If they can succeed In
