Venizelos regime were the backbone of

months past among the Greeks in various
portions OF the army. and the entire

have been replaced by adherehts of the
Constantine party. irrespective of their

COLBY COLLEGE
COMETS CLAIM STATE
BASKETBALL TITLE

The Colby Comets came back this
week END from their last Maine trip
for this season. They went away last
Friday, and returned with two more
wins to their credit, one, over the
Sanford Professionals, in which the
tally was Comets 81, Sanford 30. In
this game, according to their account,
they had to play the crowd as well as
the six Sanford men. The other win
was over the Valmonts, who went
down in defeat to the tune Of 50 to
so. This game was disa strous for
the Comets, in that Don Smith, the
star forward, went out of the game
with dislocated elbow which will in
capacitate him for some time. The
scoring was done by Dunnack and
Enholm, who got nine baskets each.
Since Bangor has cancelled the
proposed schedule Of three or four
games which were to decide the State
championship for this year, the Com
cts are claiming the honor, inasmuch
as they have played II games, 10 of
which were away from home, and 10
of which were victorious. In their
schedule, they have played on unfam-
iliar floors several teams which Ban
gor refused to face except at Bangor.
The Coment's one defeat was by the
Bangor team in the game played at
Bangor. The Comets record is more
noteworthy because of the fact that
dts contains more decisive victories
over strong teams on strange floors
than does tho racord of onv nthor
team in the State.
1t is hoped that the men from Colby
will be able to take an out of the
State trip in the coming Easter vaca-
ton. Plans for this excursion are a, :
ready under way. and If the injuries
of Don Smith. and Of Dunnack, who
has broken nose, are well in time,
the trip will come OF.
