VIEWS OF PLAYERS
In WORLDS SERIES

NEW YORK. Special Rube
NfarQUard. the 81 900 SOuthpaNy,
who pitched the Giants TO victory
over the Red SOx yesterday, was
today found guilty OF being one
Of the greatest, If not the great
est, pitcher i'm the United States,
by the baseball jury of nineteen
players and sporting writer's who
are daily giving reviews of the
worlds series.
These are some of the excerpts
from their articles printed today:
Christy MathewsOn, pitcher for
the Gi3ntS-"Rubc" NEarQuard
pitched the best ball so far in
the series. His pitching was the
swinging point OF the series. He
had braccd mp the team.
Hugh Jennings, manager of
the Detroit Tigers knew Mar
guard was ready, and said so. He
finished with hard-earned VIC
tory under his belt. His work
was brilliant. showing an exhibit
ton of muscular ability and hard
work.
"Rube" NIarquard, hero OF the
Giants only want One-ninth of
the credit. The balance goes to
the other fellows ON the team. I
worked as hard as / could, but
TO DevoPe FOR his wonderful catch
OF Cady's drive i'm the last half
OF the ninth, which saved the
game for us. It was the great
est catch ever saw.
"Chief' Meyers, catcher of the
Giants-HOw the Red Scx ever
got seven hits of Marquard 1
cannot figure out. "Rube" never
pitched so well before. His shoots

them.
John ). AIcGraw. manager of
the GiantS-We have the edge on
the series. MarQuard pitched
beautiful bah and deserves great
credit. So docs DevOre for his
running catch i'm the ninth.
Jake" Stahl. manager of the
Boston team-The fielding OF the
Giants is weak. It certainly is Il
great fight now, but I expect the
Red SoX 60 win the worlds pen
Ty Cobb, of the Detroit
Tiecrs-Thc Sox were too care
fuI i'm their plays. Marquard's
control was superb. II is a new
Vanguard who is working i'm this
series. and not the Marquard who
pitched last year. The Sox must
get the fighting spirit now if they
are HOluE 10 WIN Out
''Bill'' Carrlgan, catcher for
the Red Sox-Marquard gets the
credit He had everything. The
Giants got all the breaks, too; but
1 think all credit goes to Mar
guard. II he had faitered once
all would have been lost for New
York.
Hugh s. Fullerton. expert base
ball writer-The Giants victory
is due 10 the work of Nfarquard
and Devore.
Damon RunyOn. baseball writer
for the New York American-It
was the greatest game of Mar
guards career. But IL DeVOre had
not Ieaped ten feet i'm the air
and caught Cady's fly i'm the ninth
Boston would have won.
Bozeman Bulgar, sporting writer
for the Evening Worid-The
turning point Is reached today.
They Giants showed they have
solved the SOX style of play. The
Boston players are stupid at base

MUST PROVE POTOMAC
OYSTER is infected
VIRGINIA FISH COMMISSION PRO
TESTS ON DISCRINtIN ALTON
AGAINST POTOMAC PRODUCE.
RICH MOND VA s


Virginia oyster officials will not
place the bans on the Potomac River
oyster. thereby throwing down the
challenge TO the Federal health au-
thorities TO produce an infected or
polluted oyster within the meaning Of
the law and which win make the pro-
of diet
This is the practical effect Of the ac-
tOn of the state Fishery Commission
in meeting in this city. In other
words. the matter is up TO the city OF
Washington. where the oysters are
marketed, and if il can be shown that
there is the least danger from typhoid
or other disease in the oysters taken
from the Potomac the state will step
right in and nail the river up"
Sometime ago oysters taken from
the Potomac We're condemned in the
city of Washington. That was right
and proper. But the reason for the
condemnation of the cargoes was that
the oysters had been out of the water
too long and had simply spoiled. Mem
bers of the Fish Commission believe
that this act is largely responsible for
the present crusade and hardship on
the Potomac River tongers.

have noted the progress of the College
musical Clubs this year, are looking for
ward to the annual concert which will
be given at the Opera House, Tuesday
evening, March 49, The Glee Club has
not only secured among it's members
some unusually good voices. but it mas
under the direction of Mr.. Daggett, adj
mirably perfected itself into a we'll
tempered body of musicians Thus far
this year, nine concerts have been given
and all have been received with such
favor as would surely justify the opin-
ion that the Waterville concert would
be the best of the year
An imitation of the delights with which
the musical clubs are going to surprise
their audience may be gained from in
side information about their programme
1t is said that the members of the Glee
Club have been carefully guarding a
brand new outfit of songs which they
are going to release in their most melo-
dious manner. The most gleeful music
of the country has been canvassed in tho
hope of finding selections that are ci
stirring enough nature to lead up &c
the concluding number the "Colby Alma
Mater" song, in which all the clubs will
take part.
The Mandolin Club will be at its bes
and doubtless the floor will have to III
