The last practice of the Colby team
before the Maine game was an ex-
ceedingly lively one. The team was
sent through five-inning game with
| q fast second team, with Gately pitch
ing for the second, and Knox behind
the bat. The regulars defeated the
second team by a score of to g. their
game being featured by some good
solid hitting in which nearly all Of the
first team took part. The practice gave
the Colby men whole lot Of courage
for the game with Maine on Wednes-
Gay as the team promises to do some
real hitting and send a man or two
across the plate. The makeup Of the
team for the start of the game viii
undoubtedly be Ashworth, catcher
Mathews. pitcher; Smith, first base
Nye. second base: Driscoll, third base
Cawley, shortstop: Schuster. left field
Allen, center field; and Deasey, right
field. Knox will probably get a chance
before the game is over and one OF
more of the other players may be seer
in the game. Coach Lake was very
much in evidence Tuesday night ant
he went after the players at a grear
rate. The team worked we'll for him
and will doubtless give a good accoun,
Of itself.
