the Lewiston Chamber Of Commerce are
to build new bleachers to handle the
enormous crowd of people who are ex-

and field championships next spring If the

that at least 5000 people will turn out for

repay them for sending teams to Lewis
ton.
The joint committee appointed Is leav-
ing no stone unturned to perfect arrange
ments and to secure the meet.

Brunswick, Me-, Jan. 30,-Walter M.
Williams, better known as Pop" Will
liams has been selected to manage
and coach the Brunswick baseball
team during the season Of 1916, which

cessful season.
Mr.. Williams first came into prom
inence as a pitcher on the Bowdoin
College mines of the latter COS. He
then broke into professional baseball
and for years played on both major
and minor league teams. His last pro-

came interested in politics in his home
town Of Topsham and has for a num-
Der of years served the town as select
man and member of the school board.
For years he has coached the Bruns-
wick High school baseball team and
the teams which he has handled have
a number of championships to their
credit. Last summer he had charge Of
the Brunswick team and for the first
time in years the town was represent
team. 1t now looks as though he would
have about the same material to Sc
lect this years team from and unless
all signs fail Brunswick will make
a good showing this coming summer.
Among the men who will probably
be seen wearing Brunswick uniforms
this year are Eevens, Donnell and La
