DO AWAY WITH
WORLDS Series
BASEBALL FANS LOOK WITH
FAVOR ON THE NEW
SCHEME.

New York, Jan. 3.-The world of
baseball fans is face to face with a
calamity. win there be a post season
worlds championship series hereafter
That is the question, and good many
of the experts answer in the negative,
declaring that the action of che Ma
tional league in making the season one
OF 1853 games precludes the possibility
OF the championship matches.
The National season will open about
April Ia they point out. and with 1853
games will close Oct. Is.
The American league season OF 154
games opens about April 10 and closes
about Oct. or Z. The championship
series week, therefore, would be used
by the national clubs for the wind-up
OF the games within the league.
Charles Ebbertis OF Brooklyn and
Charles w. Murphy Of Chicago brought
about the heightened season, which is
causing good deal of comment.
T. ]. Lynch, the new president Of
the National league, is familiarizing
himself with the details Of his work.
He and ex-President Heydler, now sec
rotary treasurer have been reviewing
the work at the st. James building Of
fees.

STATE TITLE
NOT SETTLED
HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL CHAM
PIoNsHIP WILL NOT BE
AWARDED THIS YEAR.

Minot, N. D., Jan. s.-The vexed and
much discussed question or the. state
high school football championship for
1909 was one Of the topics that occu-
pied much of the time Of the executive
committee Of the High School Athletic
league during its recent session in
this city. The records and claims of
the various teams were gone over
carefully. Finally it was decided that
in view Of the complicated nature of
the case and the very strong slams
of two scnools-Fargo and Minot-it
would be best not to award the cham
pionship for this year.
II Is probable THAI before the next
season the state will Ube divided into
districts for the purpose of prelimi-
nary work outs and the champions in
the various districts will be brought
together near the end Of the season for
the Anal games. This plan, If adopted.
will simplify the situation greatly and
viii be long step forward in high
school athletics.

ing Of the executive committee Of the
Navy Athletic association at the naval
academy recently Lieut.. Frank d. Ber-
rien was elected head coach of the

citation Of his work in developing out of
unpromising material what is general
iy considered one of the best teams the
naval academy has ever had, though
1t did not get a chance to measure

Democratic Rally.

The first rally of the present political
campaign to be held in Ellsworth was at
Hancock hall last evening. The speakers
were w. r. Pattangall, of Waterville, and
John E. Bunker, of Bar Harbor.
The nall was comfortably filed at s
O'Clock when d. Z. Hurley called the
meeting to order and introduced E. E.
Brady as chairman for the evening. After
a short address, Mr.. Brady introduced Mr..
Pattangall, who spoke for about an hour,
giving his reasons for believing that
change from republican to democratic
supremacy in Maine is desirable. He
dealt mainly with the States financial
condition, evidently intending to leave the
impression that Gov. Fernald's admins
tration has been one of extravaganza and
waste; that the State was,practicaily bank
rupt, and that nothing but turning over
of its affairs to the democrats would save
it from it's present horrible CO ndition.
Mr.. Pattangall is a pleasing and an en-
tertaining speaker, and was listened to
with attention by the audience, among
which was liberal sprinkling Of ladies
and republicans.
Mr.. Bunker followed, confining his re-
marks wholly to county affairs, and
appealing to voters to support the demo-
cratic nominees. His personal references
to the republican candidates were listened
to with considerable surprise, and not
little unfavorable comment.
Lynch's band, which was advertised to
furnish music, did not materialize.
