Of many automobiles. Such crowd
never was seen on Garcelon fed out
side of the Bates Bowdoin football
games. The game yesterday afternoon
was played before a mob Of at least
1900 people. Bowdoin put up ridicu-
lous exhibition of baseball, especially
in the first and fourth innings. Wild
throws and passed men by BoWd0in
and good hitting by Bates turned the
tide of last years games completely
around. No better day could have been
sent than was this Memorial day.
Dwinal was i'm the box for Bates and he
certainly came up to the expectations
of his many admirers who came to
watch him twirl 'en. The way he made
the Bowdoin men strain their backs
trying to connect with his delusive
drops was comical. Sparks, the fresh
man pitcher for BoWdoin, did not come
up to his usual form; he must have left
his eye among the pine groves of Bow
dom or else he was trying to see now
many bumps he could raise on the
heads. arms and solar pleXuses of the
Bates boys.
The game was called at 3 o'clock by
Umpire Carrigan of Lewiston. Bates
took the field. BoWdOin's turn at the
bat was short and sweet Abbott, the
first man up, sent grounder to Wilder
who very prettily threw him out at
first. StanWOod rolled one at DWinal
and was out at first. Files struck out.
Bates came in to bat and then the bal
loon took its first ascent. Boothby and
Wilder each drew four balls. Capt.
Ecrdal was cracked in the leg and
went to first. Austin laid down clev-
er burt and Sparks gobbling it up in a
great hurry, threw it up into the
bleachers, while Bothby. Wilder ana
Kendall pranced home. On the next
pitch Austin stole third and Abbott
duplicated Sparks throw. Austin
scored. Bowman singled and Jordan
forced him out at second on ground
er to Hodgson. Connor was out at hrSt
