HEAD COACH THOMAS J. CAMPBELL
LINE COACH LIEUT.. RODNEY H. SMITH

Cony High star, in all branches of
athletics, Is bidding fair for a back
field position. H. Wyman, an all
round athlete from Good Will Farm,
with his weight and speed, should find
place on the team. G. Williams,
star lineman from Massachusetts. is
making big holes in the line. and f.
Wardwell, a former Kent's Hill star,
is playing a steady game at center.
One other man is certainly worthy Of
mention, n. Young, who has been
playing on Lewiston High for two
years and seems to be an expert on
defensive and offensive work at right
end.
Wyer. Wyman. Emery and Written
are also fine track men and their
speed and weight will make opposing
teams open their eyes. Taking the
II men who will probably compose the
lineup for Saturdays game with f.
NJ. c. S. at Bucksport, the team is
averaging in the neighborhood of 100
pounds to a man. With a squad of
more than 80 men Coach Shepard
surely has excellent possibilities.

WATCHING AND WAITING
No Decision From Court of Appeals

tion Case.

During the present month people
in this city have been awaiting

tion ease which the city took to 'fla'
tribunal over y year ago. 1t Is sal"

ion has. 50 far as known hereabo"tS'
leen rendered. the people Of this
citv will have their anxiety con-
corning the outcome OF the case con-
tinucd.
Il has been nearly two years since
proceedings were Instituted by this
city for the annexation Of certain
outlying territory to Alexandria
and the first trial Of the case came
before Judge Gordon in the Circuit
Court for Alexandria county. After
the evidence had been submitted aAd
arguments heard. Judge. Gordon de-
:ided that the city had not made out
a case against Alexandria and
Fairfax counties. and decided against
this city. Counsel for the latter
were forthwith instructed 10 take m
appeal TO the Supreme Court OF
Virginia.
It was said last summer fhat ian
opinion would re delivered in 40
venlhcr. efforts on the part Of the
city TO nave the case advanced hay-
ing failed. It vas subsequently sta
ted that the case would hot be reach
cd before January. 1915. The sands
Of the month have but few days
to run. and the outcome OF the con-
tention is as much Of an enigma as
ever.
