Prospects not Bright for Team on Next
Weeks Trip.

Orono, Me-, April 22.-(Spdcial).-
AS result of the death of Lyon, '0s,
of Colby the exhibition game to be
played at Waterville last Saturday
was postponed with the result that the
University CT Maine team will start
on its out of the State trip next week
without having played a single game,
and moreover without even having
held practice on a diamond. With
such teams as Vermont. TUFTS, Har-
ward and Exeter to play against the
prospect is anything but bright. How
ever, the entire squad is working hard
in the cage, taking advantage of a
warm day now and then to have a lit
tie outdoor practice on different parts
of the campus. The men who Will
form the squad which will take next
weeks trip have not as yet been chos-
ent with the result that one and all
are fighting hard for their respective
positions on the team.
The games TO be played on the trip
are as follows:
April 27-University Of Vermont at
Burlington.
April ZS-CniverSity of Vermont at
Burlington.
April 29-Tuits at Medford.
April 30--Harvard at Cambridge.
May 1-Open.
May 2-Exeter at Exeter.
The trials for the M. J. r. meet
which is to be held in Boston, May 2,
will be held on Alumni. Field, Satur-
day morning. April 25 Although the
track is in 4 fairly good condition, if
the present cold weathsS confines the
different events will not be run off in
very good time. The track men have
had about five days of outdoor work
but in order to keep warm they have
found it necessary to dress more in
the order of football candidates than
track men. The squad which will be
taken to Boston win leave Friday,
May ].

his man through the ropes twice in quick
succession and came near scoring a.
Knockout. In the fourth he knocked him
through the ropes again and hammered

More About Corn

Editor of Journal: looking
over the last issue of the Journal |
saw the statement of that corn record
| believe that we can beat it. We
had piece Of corn of Ga acres that
yielded 4,300 bushels weighed over
standar scales. If that fellows corn
was weighed and divided like ours |
think he would have fallen short con-
siderable. This was raised in Lin
coin township on Bovsen's ranch.
Respectfully,
