ABBOTT SCHOOL The vlCT|hS IN
ANOTHER WIN OF CONY HIGH, 1877

Cony's powerful plunges through
the Abbott line, enabling the Red
and White warriors to make repeat
cd first downs, resulted in win for
the Augusta High school eleven 10
to at Capital Park Saturday after
noon.
Costly fumbles and ahortive at
tempts at the aerial game kept the
score against the Abbotts smaller
than it should have been. Also no
tceable was Cony's lack of cohesive
interference. Nearly all of the gains
made by the Augusta bows were
through the line. Time after time
with Austin. Brennan and Earring

was penetrated for steady marches
toward the opponents goal. There
were but few long runs. harrington

second period and Caswell era bbed
a tumble and beat it for about %
yards. Once Soup" Austin got the
Dali on a fuke and started toward

when he found no opposition and

Maryland No Match
for Yale Team. $50

New Haven. Conn, Nov. 5.-Yale
went over for four touchdowns in
the game with Maryland State to-
day and won IS to 0. Yale started
the game with eight second string
men and three regulars in the lire
up and in the last period nearly an
entirely new eleven Of substitutes
went in. A cold north wind slowed
up the contest and interfered with
the punting. Brewer had a slight
advantage over Aldrich in the kick
ing.
Yale scored early when MARYLAND
fumbled on the kick-off and a Blue
player fell on the ball. Straight

best of the battle.
Fraser, Kents Hills left tackle,

Kents Hill was weakened very much

line for a streak Of successive gains,
Maine carried the ball 30 yards and
two first downs before they lost it in
midfield.
After that however, the tide swung
back to Bowdoin again and when the
whistle ended the fray, the Ostergren
had just missed making first down
on Names five yard line.
FumbIes Costly
Fumbles proved disastrous to both
teams on several occa sions. 1t was
not to be wondered that the Shiny
ball slipped from the grasp Of the
backs, or that forward passes were
muffed, and punts dropped. Bowdoln
probably suffered the most. At least
three perfectly heaved forward passes
were juggled by the receivers and
prospective gains nipped in the bud.
The only kindness the storm held
in store for the Brunswick invaders
was the strong gale that swept to-
wards Names goal line in the first
period. The wind helped Captain
Morrells punts and drove the Blue
line back further each of his several
kicks. But when Panther" Blair took
up the kicking burden for Maine the
same was true.
Joe Smith, the pony half hack Of
the Ostermen was the most consist
ent ground gamer of the day: while
Morrell also carried the ball we'll in
to the line and tackled we'll. Maine
showed r trio of fast and hard plung-
ing hacks in Cohen, Blair and Small,
but their interference was wobbly and
the Blue line did not give them the
succor worthy Of their efforts.
McCurdy There
The big BoWdoin center rush, Nc
Curdt played his best game of the
year. Despite the slippery pigskin he
made but one bad pass during the
entire game. Dwelley, the Maine right
tackle showed great offensive power
in the line for a man Of his weight.

little chap work as he did amongst
the heavy rushers in the ficrcest of

The thieves started looking for q
car Sunday night and tried two other
cars before they finally found one
that they could start. They first
pushed Walter Haymaker's car about
a block, but as the gasoline had been

unable to make It go. They then

one stolen.

had, nothing was discovered until the
car was reported to the sheriff Tues
