COLLEGE LEAGUE STANDING

Brunswick, Me, June -(SpeciaD.
-Bowdoin closed her championship
series yesterday afternoon beating
Colby to l and winning the Mama
college championship beyond all dis.
pute, but incidentally establishing a
record of not a single game lost in the
entire six games. The game was the
most exciting and the most brilliantly
played that has been seen on the Whit.
tier field this year.
Sparks pitched for BowdOin and
Shaw for Colby. The former pitched
superb game and though fair num-
Der of hits are recorded as being Sc
cured off him, they did not come at
times when they meant runs. Shaw
on the other hand, was wild during
the greater part of the game and at
one time was replaced by Goode
though he returned to the box again
at the beginning of the next inning.
The story Of the game is contained
in the fact that BOwdoin played bril-
llantly at the critical times. Not only
did Sparks pitch in fine form at these
times. but the fielding Of the whole
team was at times of sensational order.
This was especially true Of the sew
enth inning, when Colby had the base,
full and no one out. The man at bat
hit to 6. Bower. but the ball was put
To the plate and the runner was out
The next man up hit to Manter. and
the ball went to the plate again in one
Of the prcttiest plays Of the game. The
last man was secured by Dwycr, being
caught mapping at first.
BoWdoin secured three Of her five
runs in the second. with Files retired.
Lawrence drew base on balls. and

Sparks both drew base on balls G.
Bower was safe on an error at short

BoWdoin secured another run in the
fourth when Sparks reached first on

singles by Abbott and MCDade. Bow.
doliS last run came in the eighth,
when Mantcr drew ana stole second
scoring on an error at second.
Colby'S run came in the fifth when

Ten Inning Game At Driving Park
Saturday Afternoon Was Good Ono.

Coburn Classical OF WatcrVillC met
Cony High on the Driving park dla-
mond Saturday afternoon and won by
a score of to :. but ii was only after
ten long and hard-fought innings, dur
ing which there was some Of the best
playing that has been seen on that
diamond this season. The defeat was
no disgrace to ConY for She played tn"
game throughout and it was only due
to hard luck that she lost.
The visitors came to the bat first
and pounded out five runs. but after
that Mcadcr held them down aud they
did not score again until the last in
ming. Cony got three runs in the first
inning but did not see the home plate
again until the fifth when she raped
out two more, tying the game.
From that time until the tenth
neither team scored and the work Of
both was worth going miles to see.
The team work on both sides was of
tho Glt-cdgcd variety and there were
doubt" plays galore but in the tenth
Coburn struck batting streak and
pounded out the four runs which gave
her the game. While Cony was unable
to score. The game by innings was as
follows:

BETTER FIRE PROTECTION
REPORT SUBMIT
TED TO HARTFORD COUNCIL.
Water System - I'm
portance of Adequate Supply and
Quality of Hose.

An interesting report on a hgh-pressure
water system for Hartford. Conn, has re-
Gently been submitted to the common coun-
Gil by the presidents of the boards of fire.
street and water commissioners and the
city engineer together with Mr.. Ermon NJ.
Peck, consulting engineer. The report was
prepared for the committee by the two
engineers. Besides outlining auxiliary
fire protection water supply for Hartford,
the report contains a considerable amount
of interesting and useful information on
various supplementary systems built or
proposed elsewhere.
The Importance of adequate water supply
for fire protection is emphasized in the
opening part of the report by a tabulat I'd
list Of great fires in the United States and
Canada, beginning with the Savannah fire
of 1929 and extending to and including the
Baltimore and Rochester fires of 1891. The
forty-fve fires listed destroyed property
! valued at S5lU.(s0 GEO.
Another compilation of considerable inter
est given in the report is designed to show
"tAe relationship between population and
number of stories in the highest buildings
in % cities in the United States and Cam
ada" The table may be summarized as
| follows: Populations ranging from IA 900 to
2oOG0, highest buildings to stories;
5000 to 1880, 3 to q stories: 40 900 to
TO - stories; 100000, IA to 43 stories
tthe latter being the Singer building extern
sion now in process of construction in New
York city,. In a general way the figures
in question are taken to indicate that for a
population of about 100000. which may be
assumed as probable in Hartford 40 years
hence, buildings of IL stories might be
anticipated; but Hartford, with its present
estimated population of $500, already has
a building 10 stories high. and therefore,
appears to be In advance of Its popula-
ton class. In view of this and the charac-
ter of the business interests of the city,
the report states that perhaps buildings
10 TO Is stories in height may be expected
. In designing the proposed fire protection
system. the length of hose necessary has
been given more weight than the probable
height of buildings. The system was there
fore planned to limit the general hose
length to eco feet, and to 400 feet in the
case of the more important city blocks. A
pressure of 800 pounds was decided upon.
The to be protected includes LA
square miles of diversified topography. The
higher portions of the area rise about 10
feet above mean low water in the Connectl-
cut river. To serve the whole of this area,
IL. II miles of to 24-inch castiron pipe
ranging in thickness from Is to 17s inches,
and giving factors of safety Of 1913 to los,
would be required. There is proposed for
immediate construction a system embrace
nag only 4"2 miles of mains, which would
serve the principal business portion of the
city. These mains would be supplied from
pumping station located on the west bank
OF the Connecticut river in Riverside Park.
