WORK OVER ON THE
HAYDEN BROOK SEWER

contractor E. P. Witham has COM
pleted~ the work on the Hayden Brook
sewer for the year 1915. The usual allot-
ment Of 800 feet was constructed this
year and it has provided sewer con-
nections with a number of houses and
will be entered by the sewers from one
or two houses which will be built early
next spring because of it. The construc-
ton of the sewer this year has been car
ried forward rapidly in spite of the ex-
ceptionally bad weather and the hard
digging. which has been about the most
difficult that has been encountered A
different style of block was used this
year which made the work slightly more
costly but the difference will not be great
Heavy concrete facings were put over
the sewer where it went under two of the
streets so that there would be no danger
of heavy teams breaking through. The
remainder of the work on the sewer with
enc short exception will be much easier

much the stronger. The Portland writ
er sets up the claim that Portland
played n. much harder schedule than
did Coburn. 1t did play more games
but again the Coburn men take issue
writer disposes Of Coburn as follows:
The Coburn Situation
Coburn Classical Institute will con-
test the honors claimed by Portland
High because no game was played be-
tween the two but Coburn is on diff
ferent footing than Portland High and
the other schools Portland played.
Some of her football players have
been at preparatory school football
more than the four years allowed in
nearly all the Maine schools and 9TH
er rules stood by the other schools are
not in Coburn's code. At that though
the Portland High schedule would al
low no game with Coburn. the writer
is of the opinion that Captain Lap
pins eleven could have defeated CO.
burn at any time in the season follow
ing the Waltham game. Coburn play
ed less difficult schedule by far. She
played good football and the writer IS
the last one to wish to take away any
credit she may gather to herself bu-
certainly some of her players, by Wiz
true of length. of preparatory school
football service are hardly 70 be
stacked against High school boys liv-
ing within the Just and well worili,.9
code of rules signed and adhered to
| by upwards of 60 Maine schools today.
Now as TO the facts in the case.
There is but one player on the Co
burn team who has been in fitting
school more than four years. Pagan,
who played in most of the games at
halfback, is playing his fifth year as Il
fitting school representative. The re-
naming members of the team are
within the four-year limit.
Now as to the opinion that the
Portland team could defeat Coburn if
they had met Let the scores in which
they met the same team tell the story.
Portland met Deering High schoo.
| twice. 1t won the first game by Il score
OF 10 to and IN. the final game OF the
year when they were supposed to be
at their best they defeated them 70
TO 0. Coburn played Deering High
once on the Deering grounds, and by
the way, without Pagan in the lineup
except for a few minutes, and the re-
suit was AS to Q for Coburn. does not
look as though Portland had anything
on Coburn there. Portland played two
games with Westbrook, winning the
first "A to 0 and the second % to T.
Coburn had no trouble in defeating
the same team by score of So to O.
Then Hebron, the best that Portland
could do was to defeat them by
score of 5 TO o. while Coburn easily
Won by score of IA to 0. Little COM
fort for Portland in those scores. So
much for. the dope. If Portland sup
porters can figure out from it where
Portland would have a chance with
the fast Coburn team they are at lib
erty to 60 so but the Coburn men will
Still continue to think that ii had by
far the fastest team in the State this
year.
