in North New Portland WAS played In
Music Hall, last Saturday night. The

score does not indicate the closeness
and speed of the game. Not until the
end of the game was victory in the
hands of n. N. p. The Kingfield boys
played hard, fast. clean game, hght-
ing until the end. N. N. p. played
a far more scientific game. Their
passing and shooting excelled that OF
their opponents. Weymouth was
easily the star for Kingfield, while the

machine.
