captaincy for the year 1918 was
awarded to a Gardiner man at a ban

has played a great game for Bates and
has been one of the stellar performers
with the bat. His ability is recognized
by all Maine pitchers and add to this
the fact that Dunk" has played three
positions during his college career The
election was popular with the student

baseball leader will have the confidence
and support Of all Bates men.
