the approaching contest Saturday be-

liams field. The game marks the con-
Guiding performance on Cony's foot
ball squad for the present season. 1t
is fitting that this game should occu-
by the last place in the schedule. as
the old saying goes, Save the best
for the last" Both teams have exhib-
tied strength in an uncommon degree
throughout the season which only IN
creases the impotence for the outcome
of this meeting Saturday will decide
which Of the two Kennebec valley RI
walls can rightly claim supremacy on
the gridiron.

practice, signal drilling and kicking.
No scrimmage was given the men. 1t

ceding the climax Of the teams foot
ball season she should be deprived OF
the aid Of Coach Merrill. Though re-
covering rapidly from his illness ne
doubts his ability to appear on the
football field at any time this week.
Coach Gale has taken the double bur-
den Of getting the men in shape Tor
an honorable exhibition with which 70
