COLBY BASEBALL
SCHEDULE CONTAINS
SEVERAL new GAMES

Waterville, Me-, Nov. 2.-(SpeciaD.-
Harold Rand, manager of the baseball
team, has nearly completed the sched-
ule for the season of 1915. In it are
IA games that arrangements have
been made final, and negotiations
have been carried on with several of
the larger colleges. but these dates
have not been approved of by the ath-
letic council as yet, so they are not
included in the schedule up to date.
Harvard is included as for the last
few years. There are also several
new colleges on the list such as Will
Jams, Holy Cross and the Chinese
University.
Colby did not lose much baseball
material by graduation last spring, as
Nutting, who played right field was
the only man who will be absent. IL
was made evident in the annual Fresh
man. Sophomore game that the IN
coming class contained more or less
Varsity material so from the present
outlook Colby will be represented by
a strong nine next spring.
Among the members of last years
team the following are still in COL
lege and are expected to show bet
ter baseball next spring than in form
err years from the fact that they have
been playing summer ball with fast
teams during the past summer. They
are LaFleur '15, James '15, ex-Capt.
| Campbell Is, Simpson '16, Lowney '16,
Capt Smith IT, Cawley II.
The number of games to be played
| out of the State will be less than in
| former years due to the fact that the
| management of the Maine College
mines have made arrangements to play
three games in the championship series
! instead of two as has been the rule
| formerly. therefore 1t was found nee
| essary to drop many of the colleges
| that have been on the schedule in for
mer years.
Following is the schedule up to date
| as approved by the Athletic Council
at the regular meeting on Oct. IS,
1914:

Paris, Nov. 2, $50 A. M.-The allied
troops, according to official informa-
ton here, are still determinedly meet
ing the latest vigorous offensive move
ment of the Germans in Belgium and
in France. To date the French and
English assert that the balance of
gains IS in their favor and they look
to see the failure of the German Of
fensive in this section indicated soon
by a general and definite withdrawal
of the enemy upon the right bank of
the User.
While it is admitted that the allies
have not regained all of the lost
ground in the valley of the User, their
known gains in that region give every
hope of general success. In the Vi
cinity of Newport and Dixmude the
enemy has been repulsed beyond the
railroad while the inundation effected
between the User and the Newport
Dixmude line has rendered the ground
there so swampy that the German
trenches have become uninhabitable.
This last fact is noted in the latest
Belgian official statement
Referring TO the developments on
the line from Divmude to Ypres, the
Belgian statement is precise in its an
nouncement that Poelkapelle has
been surrounded by the allies. Peel

Advances by either side in Belgium are

claim to have penetrated to the north

have been reoccupied by the allied troops.
Other reports assert that the Allies dali
" are creeping nearer to Ostend which
even now harly can be said to be occu-
pied in a military sense, but as long as
the Germans hold the river the town does
not need any considerable force to retain
