MONTE" MOORE
OF BATES FAME
IS AT DEERINe

Frightened by prospects Of praeti-
cally q veteran eleven on which to
start the seasons campaign. the Deer
ing High school football team report
ed Monday afternoon At the Highland
Square grounds for the drst practice
OF the season under the new athletic
director. Ernest NJ Moore OF Bates
and a former Varsity football leader
at that college
The squad was to have reported last
cause many OF them were at work Il
of school before starting work for the
seasop. and Coach Moore. who came
down for that purpose. left Thursday
for Bates answering . call to assist
Coach Parks and Athletic Director
Purinton In coaching the Bates eleven.
Coach Moore returned Saturday and
will be on hand for the first rrac-
tice.
When the High school team report
ed Monday. nine veterans and letter
men answered the call OF Coach
Moore, Wright, Weenan. Clifford. Nc
Govern. Caldwell. Speirs. Foden. and
Sawyer. Wright. Caldwell and McGov-
eEn played ends last year and all three
put up an excellent game, the former
being an exceptionally good man on
forward passes. Clifford. last years
tackle, has decided to return and will
undoubtedly hold down his old posi-
ton but there is some doubt regarding
ex-Captain Stockford. who says that
he viii enter Portland High. thus saw
ing some distance OF travel as he lives
in the city proper. Sawyer will be at
guard again and Weer,an. veteran CEN
ter. will be on hand. This will leave
ronly a guard and possibly a tackle
berth to ill in the line outside Of de-
veloping some second string material
The problem this season appears to
be TO develop q fullback. In Captain
Foster Barry and Ted Foden. two good
halfhacks are available Foden last
year played fullhack part Of the sea-
son. but he was ligh. for that posi-
ton and as halfback appears better
suited. Speirs will be stationed at
quarterback.
Captain Barry did not report with
the squad Monday and it is doubtful
il he is seen in action in the drst game
which is with Biddeford High at Bay
side park mex, Saturday. the drst To-
cal school boy attraction of the sea-
son. Barry left last week on q trip
TO Pennsylvania and does not expect
to return until next Monday His
place will have to lie filed for the
Deering game.
