FOOTBALL NOTES

The glooms have it. Not because
the Gardiner football team came back
from Saco with the first Touchdown
of the season scored against them but
because it has been found that under
the rules OF the Athletic Association
Sunny Jim" Stonier has been adj
judged ineligible to play for the bal
ance of the season. All this because
Jim participated in two games five
years ago. Gardiner thus loses one
Of her heaviest linesmen. B. Canter
who filled Jim's place on Saturday
has not appeared with the team often
but is no novice at the game.

Completely outpIayed

The lighter eleven put up a spirited
struggle and fought bitterly until the
very last of the game but they were
completely out-elassed in every way
by the up-river players. Guy Lead
better started the game at right tackle
but the injury which the big hneman
suffered in practice a few days age
proved so painful that he was Obliged
to leave the game after the first two
or three minutes of play, being re-
placed by Austin. The only phrase OF
the Whites playing that was in any
wise superior to the work of Colby
was in her working of forward passes
which were used successfully for the
only real gains of the Brunswick
eleven.
The Bowdoin line was swept off its
feet by the work of the heavier team s
nnemen and the WaterviIle players
had little occasion to resort to any
thing other than old-fashioned buck
ing to gain at will.
Fraser the Star
Captain Paul Fraser of Colby was
easily the individual star of the game
Time after time he would penetrate
the Bowdoin line for big gains while
his work on the defensive was a big
factor in the inability of the Bowdoin
backs to score. -Four of Colby's seven
touchdowns were the result Of his on
slaughts, while his excellent work IN
kicking goals netted the Waterville
team an additional five points.
For Bowdoin, Shumway, playing his
first big game at quarter. was the par
ticular star. The work of the Skowhe-
gan boy on both the offensive and the
defensive stood well above that of his
fellow players and his hard tacklins

big attendance at Saturdays game on
Garcelon field. The game was called
at 2.30, but long before that time the
bleachers and grandstand were filled
with football enthusiasts, young and
old. At least $500 people were on the

1ege championship series. On the fur
Their side of the gridiron, autos were
lined up. most of them bearing the
university colors Five hundred stu
dents from Orono arrived in Lewiston
with their band and made things live
ly before and after the game. With
the Bates boys on one side and the
yelling Maine men on She other, the
more peaceable people in the grand
stand had plenty of noise.
At 2.30 the teams arrived on the field
and the enthusiasm of the students
was let loose in cheer after cheer for
the Garnet and the Blue The game
from the start showed the heavy Maine
team to have a decided advantage.
g The university squad played genuine
: football, straight ahead push and
fight game without making much use
of the newer, more open plays.
"a In the First Quarter

The Maine team won the tossup and
Butler of Bates started the game with
a kick to the 15-yard line. Maine held
the ball for the. next three plays but
lost it to Bates on tumble. Here
Bates did about all their aggressive
playing OF the game, but after gain
ing a few yards, made two attempts
at a forward pass and was forced t
punt. Maine from this point steadily
carried the ball up the field until q
touchdown was made by Ruffner

Der reeled eff 10 yards and then seven
more, but Abbott forced punt which
brought the pigskin to her 25-yard line.
Mcdowell followed a hve-yard plunge
through right skin tackle with O i5-yard
gain through the same place. Fallon re-
ported to Referee Cooper and took Lar
kin's place at right end Furbish's quar-
terback run lost five yards when three
Cony iinesmen broke through and
pounced upon him, Grover successfully
received another forward pass but no
gain was Melted. Time was called for a
few moments for Sampson to recover
from a hard thump in the back. How
complete was SIMPSONS recovery he
grittily exhibited on the next play when
he ripped UP line and interference and
nailed Furnish. who was well underway
on q threatening quarterback run. Alb
bot took punt formation. the pass was
high and Fallon fumbled. He quickly
recovered the ball and started around
right end, where he was quickly dumped
by Dennis, which caused another tumble
and Lathe recovered the ball for Cony on
the a0-yard line. Taber cleaved right end
for seven yards. The whistle blew and
marked the end Of three scoreless periods.
Fourth Period
The last period Of the game opened
with Cony in possession of the ban
at the extreme edge of the field on
the 21-yard line. A long cross field
run by Dennis netted no gain. CO.
ny's backs lunged fiercely into right
skin tackle when suddenly Purintou
doomed up sailing serenely with tho
ball around left end with an almost
clear field. Fully 20 yards were COW

bots five-yard line. Time was call
ed while the man who had worked
this pretty trick play was helped from

ed leg and Froberger took his place,
| 1t looked like a touchdown for Cony
with four downs In which to make

costly tumble In the next play was
recovered on the yard line by Abb
| bot. The whistle blew and Purinton
with a limping trot resumed his place
| at quarterback. Abbott's strenuous
efforts met with slight success against
| the placky resistance offered by the
/ Cony defense. Furnish, the Abbott
| quarterback. left the game after re-

moment replaced by Larkin, but re-
turned to the game again after the
next play in which Fallon punted and
| Abbott fortunately recovered the punt.
Cony held for downs and got the bal.
at about the middle of the field. Few
minutes of play remained and Pnrin-
| ton gave the ball to Wyer for three
successive skintackle plunges of 10,
| 10 and five yards each. The whistle
marking the end of the contest was
heard aud 0 to 0 score had been the
l outcome of 40 minutes of the fastest
football that Reuel Williams field had
ever known.
