MOST AGGRESSIVE
PLAYING OF THE YEAR
Visiting Team Made Up of
Former Goddard Stars
Largely

At the Church street gymnatium last
night the Bushers A. A., so called, com
posed of Tufts college students and
former Goddard stars, fell before the
Shamrock A. A., 80 TO 20. The game
was by far the most exciting and inter-
esting that has been played in Barre this
season, every minute of the time de-
voted to play furnished instances of such
aggressive playing as to win the APP
proval of the audience that overfowed
the bleachers surrounding the court.
Both teams fought unhinchingly through
out
Though inadvertence, the management
of the local team had announced that
the unorganized aggregation OF the past
masters of basketball Were supposed to
claim Tufts college for a stamping
ground which error was rectifed by
clothing the visitors with an extempo-
raueous appellation of the Bushers A. A.
These former stars once gave the gem
eral impression through the stands that
with winters sojourn with the snow
and ice would make a quintet with
prospects of annexing the state cham
pionship. The Bushers A. A. was COM
posed of BILL" Richardson of Fishers

and Barre, who appeared to nave lost his
oldtime effectiveness, but, playing an
uphill game. was desolate figure when
mingling with the speedy Erinites. Irv-
ing Calvin, a recruit from Tufts college,
who gained recognition last fall by his
football ability at the college in the
suburbs Of Boston. was assigned to a
post at the forward portion of the floor
and covered himself with glory The
young athlete proved a wizard

For the first time this season the
ocal basketball fiends exhibited signs OF
Mechanical teamwork. This trait char
cterized their work during the game,
nd the ball was manipulated with clev-
rness in every section of the court,

the first saw mill in Somerset County
with the up and down saw was built
here The first dam across the Ken

a saw mill across the river in elm

was built short time afterward by
Isaac Lyons and the place now known
as Shawmut was called Lyons Mills.
It Went by this name for number
of years when it was changed TO Som

manufacturing Company built its first
pulp mill here and the name OF the
place WAS changed TO Shawmut The
mill has been manufacturing raw
pulp which has been shipped to other
mills
