AS the winter season advances all
ewes at Togus will be turned toward
the new basketball team recently or
ganized. This team has been raised
to fill out the six-team league in
Augusta, Much interest is being
manifest at the Home and full sup
port will be accorded the boys who
are putting in their time to make the
team success. With only two
nights of practice in a hall OF re-
stricted proportions this team played
the fast Cushnoc quintet last Friday
evening at the Y Gym, holding them
to a score of "a to %, and it is be-
lieyed that the material is at hand to
round out a successful team with
more practice.
The personnel of the team COM
prises several old time stars and with
the new material available this team
should be heard from before the
league season closes.
H. NJ. Gould of Milo, who will play
center for the team, is an old Milo
High player who few years ago was
considered one of the best High
school centers in this section of the
State He also played center on the
Milo town team which was very
fast aggregation. Like all of the 9TH
er members of the team he is not in
the best of condition. but indications
practice nights now point to an early
rounding into form and when in con-
dition he will undoubtedly show the
way to most centers in the league.
H A. Stafford, who came to the
Home several years ago from Provi-
dence, R. l., was an extremely fast
forward on the r. I. State College
team while he was in that school.
Several years ago team was organ
lied in the Home and he played right
forward. showing up to good advan-
tage. He is fast on his feet, sure in
passing and has a good eye for bas-
kets. With a little rounding into
condition he should become a very
valuable man and tower of strength
to the team.
Sumner A. Glazier, who plays the
other forward position, is an Augusta
boy and probably too we'll known in

1t was little wonder that men and
women in the big audiences at the
Colonial theatre yesterday fairly
CRASHED their teeth at what they wit
messed on the screen. And yet the
scenes there depicted were only the
same as are being staged every day
in Asia Minor where the cruelties of
the Turks against the Armenians
continue. even though the war has
ended. Auction Of Souls" brings to
the people of this country the horrors
and sufferings Of the East as no other
means has been able to convey them.

it is one that should be seen by every

NIL, HOME BAS kETbALL team

!, town to need to say much about his
basketball ability. He played basket
ball while in Cony High school, is
fast on his feet and has an extraor-
binary eye for basket shooting. AL
will hold his own with many larger
man.
B. E. Earnum, who is playing right
back, is an ld-timer whose basket
ball experience was gained playing
on the old E. NJ. c. S. quintet, back
in 1908, '04 and '05. in Bucksport.
This team was composed of some of
the fastest prep. school players in the
State and for two seasons never suf-
, fered a defeat, playing such teams as
NJ. c. T., Bangor High school. Belfast
High, etc. With little rounding into
form he should be able to cover any
forward in the league with success.
Edwin Cooper. the big back who
played in the Cushnoc game last Fri
day night, has never played outside
the Home. Three years ago two
teams We're raised at the Home and
played with each other. He played
guard at this time and gave promise
Of becoming. with a little experience,
a very good man.
Joe Willett, who is also playing
guard, is well known to Augusta
baseball fans. and although he is
without experience as basketball
player, is showing up to good advan-
tage and his baseball playing, togeth
er with his all-round athletic ability
guarantees his value to the team.
Dan Ivory has played some basket
ball and has signified his willingness
to help out the team and from his
showing at practice he will probably
be one of the teams best bets.
In addition to the foregoing the fol-
lowing men have appeared for prac-
tice: Lizotte, the old dependable on
the diamond for Togus for years;
Levesque, the star pitcher of the To-
gus team last season; A. D. Morneau
and O'Brien.
The team has elected B. E. Var
mum as manager and H. A. Stafford as
captain. All the boys are interested
and will do their best to keep the
team we'll up in the league standing
and keep up the tradition Of good
athletic teams for Togus.
