A German geographer named Kaiser
who has returned from his second
visit to British East Africa is much
impressed with the effect of the
Uganda railroad upon the natives
along the line. He says he scarcely
recognized them as the same beings
he met there eleven years ago. At
that time he would not have dared
risk his life in the Guasso-Ngishu
highlands, but that winter he
wandered over them for seven weeks
with only half dozen men to carry
his luggage, undisturbed by 1ears OF
violence.

would be of much interest but none has
been arranged. Last spring these two

they do not get together on football.

Tomorrow is really the greatest day
III the year in Maine college football,
because it is the only day of the fall
on which two games are played in the
Maine college championship series.
Bowdoin and Bates will meet on Whit
tier field at Brunswick for their annual
game and Colby and L. of NJ. will play
at Waterville. For Bates and Colby
tomorrow's games will close the sea-
son, while Bowdoin and T. of NJ. will
meet in their annual game at Orono a
week later 10th of tomorrow's games
promise to be close and exciting con-
tests and if the day is fair both will be
witnessed by large crowds. After the
upset which the prophets received a
week ago, predictions as to the result
OF the games Will not be of the cock
sure variety.

me managers of the college elevens
are not very much in the limelight, but
| nevertheless they are important fac
tors In the work and success of the
teams. When one considers the great
crowds that attend the championship
games and the large amount of money
handled, it will be seen that they have
lot of responsibility and a multitude
of details to attend to. The managers
of the four Maine college elevens this
fall are all exceptionally bright young
men and it so happens that three of
them are intimately connected with
their respective colleges by long family
associations. John S. Simmons. the
manager Of the Bowdoin eleven halls
from New York City and is the son of
Parker P. Simmons who graduated
from Bowdoin in 1875 and is now on the
board of education in New York City.
Clarke Chapman, the manager of the
Colby eleven, is the son and grandson
OF Colby graduates, his father being
MILFORD G. Chapman. the well known
Portland lawyer, and his grandfather
being the late Josiah H. DrummonG,
long the president of the Colby board
of trustees. The Bates manager is
Willard S. Boothby of Lewiston who is
a grandson of the late President

AT WaterVile tomorrow afternoon
there is also certain to be hard game
with the result in doubt Both teams
have beaten Bates by the same score,
U. of M. last Saturday and Colby three
weeks earlier. Since its game with
Bates, Colby has played two other
hard games. losing to BOwdoin and
winning from Exeter. but showing
much speed and splendid form in both
games. On account of it's exceptionally
good showing at Lewiston last week,
the Orono eleven is likely to be a
favorite with the general public, but
the Colby boys are confident that they
can close their schedule with victory
and their supporters will be present in
force to see them turn the trick. Both
teams are heavy this year, with fast
men in the back field. and have had
the best of coaching. Colby is prob
ably little more successful in using
the forward pass and playing the open
game and there is no man in Maine
who can catch Captain Goode if he
gets started in a clear field. The
Maine eleven will find the Colby line a
different proposition than the Bates
line was at Lewiston last Saturday.
There will be a special train from
Orono today and the visiting team will
not lack enthusiastic rooters.

The annual game between Bowdoin
and Bates is always che worth seeing
and this year it will be no exception to
the rule. Although Bates has lost both
its earlier games in the championship
series, being defeated by both Colby
and L. Of VI. by the score of to 0. il
by no means follows that BoWdoin will
win tomorrOW's contest In both of
these games the margin for the victors
was a close one and the smallest thing
might have turned the tide of battle
tho other way Moreover. Bates. like
Maine and Colby, makes its game with
BoWdoln tine big game of its schedule
toward which it's chief energies and
highest hopes are directed. It's team is
fast and tricky, with a good supply of
second string men for the back field
and it has no end of fighting spirit
The BOwdoin team, fresh from it's vic
tories over Colby and Tufts. is no
doubt generally looked upon rs the
likely winner Of tomorroW'S game, but
VIII not make the mistake of being
over-confident. 1t has made the mis-
take in earlier years of under estimat-
ing Bates and has several times paid
the penalty of defeat. In recent years
the Bowdoin-Bates games have been
exceedingly close with neither team
sure of the victory until the final
whistle had blown.
