THE BATES-COLBY GAME.
Hard Contest Expected and Winner Is
Uncertain Proposition.

Lewiston, Me, oct 29-(SpeciaD.-
Yes, its going to be a big game when
Maine comes down to Lewiston Sat
urday to meet Bates on Cfarcelon field
Bates knows it, too and she only hopes
that Maine will begin to realize it
about next Saturday night Is Bates
ready? That is hard to say. The
team has been put through the most
strenuous practice of the season the
past two nights. The scrimmage last
night was as hard as any game in
which the team has played in this fall.
The Varsity lineup last night was
much the same as in the game with
Colby The line is now practically
selected and it looks like the solidest
proposition that Bates has ever pre-
scented.
Captain Cochran, center, needs no
introduction. The old bulwalk is just
beginning to play his game. He was
out Of the game for while during the
first part of the season but he showed
in the game Saturday with New
Hampshire State that he is about the
fastest lineman of his weight in the
State Mckenney and Booker make
strong pair of guards, while the An
drews brothers look pretty good in the
tackles. Leavitt and Bishop the
Sophomore ends, are working together
much better than they did last week.
The backfeld is unsettled. Cobb at
quarter and Lovely at full seem to be
on to stay kearney and Cummings
will doubtless play the other positions,
with a possibility of Dorman going III
at most any time.
so much for Bates, what do we
know about Maine? Not much down
here except that she had trouble with
New Hampshire State College two
weeks ago while Bates found little
-rub,a in defeating the same team.
q. nt Sanborn of the New Hampshire
ta,m made the statement that Bates
nlayed a much harder and more ag-
~ressiye game than did Maine against
Them one week previous. Then comes
til. subject of lying down. Bates does
not believe that Maine was bit in
different about the game with n. H.
state any more than she believes that
Moline did not work hard to win the
game from Tufts last Saturday. one
thing is certain. Maine has plenty OF
material and Coach Mccoy is man
who can handle material.
Doping it out from the showing
which the teams made against Har-
ward it would seem that Bates was
playing a more aggressive game our

ing the first part of the season than
was Maine The Tufts game gives no
really tangible material for the dope
artist. This much is certain. Maine
will play to win and Bates has got to
produce better goods than she did
against Colby or else she will have to
take the count. If Maine had any rep
reSentatiVcS on the field last Saturday
watching the game with New Hamp-
shire state it is doubtful if they
learned anything which will help
them. Bates was simply playing
straight football. playing to win, and
no new plays We're disclosed.
SO Bates is not at all confident. She
knows that it will be a battle royal.
For three successive years the teams
have played to a tie score Neither
team wants repetition this fall Last
year the game ended very unsatisfac-
tory. time being called before the sec
ond half was scarcely half played.
The game will begin promptly at
o'clock this year and that ought to
give the teams time enough to come
to some decision before nightfall.
Bates will hold a rousing mass

President Wiggin will have charge Of
the meeting. Among the speakers will
