royal for the boys of the Cony High
school football squad when they
journey this afternoon to Bath for a
clash with the speedy team repre-
senting Morse High.
Coach Thompson has every con-
fidence in the ability of his men to
wrest a victory from the down river

fact that they have some fine vic
tories to their credit. The coach an
ticipates a great game. The Bath
boys on Wednesday defeated Lincoln
academy to o. and last Saturday
held Edward Little High of Auburn
to a scoreless tie. AS yet. Cony re-
mains undcfeated and the boys have
no idea of letting things get away
from them today.
The team accompanied by a loyal
bunch of supporters will leave the
school grounds this morning at 10
o'clock sharp. The lineup will be as
follows: Gray, lie: Hewitt, 1t: S.

PARTRIDGE STORIES

Partridge have been reported plen-

fall, but it remained for Deputy
Sheriff Charles A. Clark of Saco to
report them so thick that he couldn't
drive down from Alfred without
catching one in his auto, reports the
Biddeford Journal. 1t appears that
Deputy Clark, according to his state
ment, was on his way down from the
county seat one day last week when
he heard whir and with bang a
fine plump partridge plunged into his
automobile and fell at his feet. Aft

plying the twisters to the birds neck
and Clark was sure Of at least one
more dinner. Clark is thinking of
having a large net affixed to his ma

pliance, he could get all the birds he
wants on his trips to and from AL
fred.

BOWDOIN HACKERS SURE
WILL WIN FROM TRINITY

Brunswick, Me-, Oct 14-Bowdoin's
grid warriors started this morning on
second invasion of southern New
England. the objective this week end
being Trinity college at Hartford. The
White pigskin chasers last year de-
ieat,d the Connecticut players on the
Brunswick grid by n small score, al
though the advantage was admittedly
with the home team throughout the
game. Both Trinity and Bowdoin
have regained many of their star play
ers so that Saturdays game is sure
to be of considerable interest. Trinity
played the Connecticut Aggies to a
scoreless tie last week, duplicating
the performance of Bowdoin with
Williams. To date neither team has
been scored upon. the question to be
decided in Saturdays game being
hich record will go by the board.
After a weeks grilling practice.
Coach Ostergren has decided to take
on this trip practically the same
squad as went to Williamstown last
Week. With good field and weather
