basketball team. Goebel threw Ryan
without much effort after about Ave
minutes struggle.
Another interesting struggle was
that between l.. Dole of Yale and

HIGH SCHOOL BALL
Prospects Quite Good for An
other State Champion
Team.
Mr.. HACKETT TO COACH
six of Last Years Banner Winners
Still in School-Good Squad
Coming Out.
Mr.. HACKETT TO coAcl

AS soon as the weather will permit,
the New Haven High school baseball
squad will go out for its first practice
at Yale field The team this year was
unable to have any indoor practice
whatsoever. owing TO the fact that they
have been unable to secure any place
to practice in They have tried TO secure
the Second Regiment armory and the
Troop A armory but have been unsuc-
cessful. Some Of the members endeav-
ored to secure the Yale cage, but were
also unable to do this. The High school
basketball team also were unable to Sc
cure permission to practice in the Sec
ond Regiment armory. However, the
boys will be out in full force, and will
make up for lost time under the coach
ing Of some of the graduates and Cap
tain Harra.
William Haekett, an instructor of the
High school, commonly designated as
THE Head of Athletics," will take
charge OF the boys on the field Mr.,
Hackett has done much for the school,
and much In the athletic line, and his
work has always been welcome. Under
his guidance the High school ought to
have a winning team.
Six members OF last years baseball
team are left, which is certainly good
showing, as last years team secured
the championship, This leaves three po-
sitions open, that of center field, first
base and pitcher. There has been much
said about being unable to have good
pitcher, but later news shows that there
are five men out for the position, Con-
nors, Falsey SAKE, Mccormick and
| Starkweather. These men will be given
chance to show their worth as soon
as possible Flanagan. Fiefield and
SAKE are out for first base, while many
are out for the field position, very few
being yet known about However, AL.

has made marked progress in prom
ises to the people and much greater
progress in aiding selfish interests
and special privileges. This party,
guided by expediency and campaign
necessity would camp this year on
Democratic ground"
