AUGUSTA WILL PLAY
STRONG WINTHROP
TEAM, 4P. M. TODAY
Contest to Take Place on the
Reuel Williams Field
Both Teams Are
Confident
STINSON VS.. AUCKLAND

This afternoon comes the big attrac-
ton in baseball circles when the Au
gusta and Winthrop teams of the
Trolley League clash at p. NJ, on the
Reuel Williams field. This will be the
one big attraction and promises to be
one of the closest and hardest fought
contests seen this season. The two
teams have not met upon the diamond
since the opening of the league season
when Winthrop took both games from
the Capital City team. Winthrop has
been playing in rather hard luck of
late. having dropped four straight
games. On the other hand Augusta is
playing the fastest ball at the present
time that it has this season, and the
fact that the team leads in the league
standing is sufficient evidence of that.
auckland, the mainstay in the box for
Winthrop, will be on the firing line
for Winthrop while Stinson will twirl
for Augusta. Augusta is determined
to remain at the top of the standing
and consequently will work hard to
win today's contest. The game starts
promptly at p. NJ. and a big crowd is
sure to be on hand. Daley of Lewis
ton will umpire the game.

Umpire Tommy Connolly stopped the
chatter of players on the Boston bench
at Boston Wednesday by ordering every
man out of the dugout. This happened
while the regulars were in the field.
O'Loughlin, who was umpiring behind
the bat admonished them, but could not
mark down those who were doing the
talking, and who were having a lot of
fun out of it. Neither could Connolly,
who was at first base. put the latter

ordering the whole bunch off the bench.
The boys were slow about moving out,
and Carrigan, who was catching, rushed
over to the dugout. Which one do you
want, Tommy" asked Bill. "All of
them" replied the umpire; every one
of them has got to get out" 30. leave
me a couple of coachers," pleaded Bill.
The umpire compromised on a couple Of
coachers, but the others had to leave.
Some of them floated back again, but
there was no more talk from the bench.
Simon A. Mcdonald, former man
agcr of the Hartford club, was Mon
day appointed manager of the Spring
field Eastern association club, to sue
coed Billy Hamilton, who was drop
ped. Mcdonald will also serve as a
catcher. Hamilton was deposed be-
cause the team has not been a winner.

Gardiner has lost Driseoll, the crack
pitcher that has been giving such a
good account of himself. The loss will
be keenly felt to the Gardiner man

den will have to be shouldered by

The Brockton Blues seem to be a
hitting team. They have clearly dem
onstrated that on their tour through
the State But then there does not
seem to be so many Brockton men on
the team at that, for some of the
faces used to look familiar in and
about Portland.
MacGhee suggests that all pitchers
whe get in a bad hole give the batter
that center fielda ball. Mac rather
hikes that one and proceeds in each
and every instance to gather them in,
it making little difference to him
whether they are high or low.
Fuller of the Winthrop team seems
to have dropped off slightly in batting
in the last few games, which is La
bic to befal1 any man. He is a danger
Gus man at the bat and is to be re-
spected at all times.
Smith seems to be able to get at
least one free pass off of any pitcher.
Harvey hit for 800 in the game Mon
day with Brockton. At that rate he will
be likely to remain some where near
the top of the list.

BELFAST TEAM DISBANDS
BECAUSE TOO FAST FOR
EASTERN MAINE LEAGUE

Belfast, Me. July 21.-(SpeciaD-
: The Belfast baseball team disbanded
this afternoon, having been notified by
Oldtown and the Easterns that they
refused to play longer with them in
the Eastern Maine League. This ends
1t so far as Belfast is concerned and
her men will doubtlessly be distributed
among the other teams 1t is said that
Wormwood. McElwee and Williams
will go to the Bangors, while Albert
: will join the Beavers, the C. p r.
team in the Piscataquis League. The
others will not be long out of a job
as they are all fast players and will
be in demand, although it is late in
the season. The fact that they were
: too fast for the other teams in the
league will not hurt them in the base
ball market. There is a general feel
ing that Belfast has not had a fair
deal in the matter.
meeting of representatives of the
four clubs was held Mnoday night in
Bangor Messrs. Buzzell, Colcord and
Heating from Belfast argued to con-
siderable length in defence of their
course and suggesting propositions to

compromise in order to keep the same
going in Belfast. As matter of rec
