HOCKEY MATERIAL
.PLENTIFUL-BIG
PLANS FOR SPORT

There is a movement on foot at Col
by College to recognize hockey as an
intercollegiate sport. Negotiations are
being made with Springfield, Bowdoin
and the Waterville town teams and
possibly two or three other colleges.
Roscoe Paine has recently built a new
skating rink very near the college and
the games will probably be played
there.
Colby men have been very much in
tcrestcd in hockey every year but on
account of the cinders from the Maine
Central railroad, which runs by the
athletic field it is impossible to have a
good skating rink on the college
grounds. There are several men in
college who have had experience al
the game before and this will help Il
great deal III getting a team started.
Twelve of these men have signified
their intention of trying out for the
team and when the call is issued
many boys who have never played on
regular teams will doubtless compete
for the various positions. Hariand r..
Radcliffe 90 of Melrose Highlands,
Mass. has played coverpoint on his
high school team during his four
years there. Richard A. Wason "a
played on the Dartmouth team last
season. He will be ineligible this year
on account of the one-year rule at Col
by that makes any man who transfers
from another college ineligible to play
in any intercollegiate athletic contest
until that man has attended Colby
for one college year. On account of
his being unable to play he will! coach
the Colby team. Grenville E. Vale '24
of Glen Cove, n. Y, has played in
Canada for several seasons. Vale is
one of Colby's athletes and has played
past two years. Richard A. Pike "a
of Winthrop. Mass, and Edward T..
Ticrney of Bridgeport, CT. played the
end positions on their high school
teams. Ellsworth Millett '25 of
Whitman, Mass, played on the Whit
man team before he came to Colby.
Percy McBay has played for Dean
Academy, while Arthur Sullivan 80 of
Winthrop and two boys from philadel-
phia, Samuel HUM and Ralph c.
Young of the class of '25, all of whom
have played on, the Colby varsity foot
ball team, are experienced in the
hockey game.
The first shipment of clubs and
pucks are already in the gymnasium
waiting for someone to use them and
every player can get a locker and clean
towel at the gymnasium. The ice has
not been very good SO far but by the
time college opens in January there
should be plenty of good skating.

of flies and rats and it will also be
very "odiferous." Then too, there is
constant danger of cholera getting
Pinto the herd and causing a great
loss.
Therefore the best way would ap-
parently be the incarceration method.
This would dispose of garbage by
burning it and SO there would be no
chance to turn this waste into money
with which to pay part of the cost of
collection. This is the ideal way if
the city can afford it, The cost of the
plant will range from $4,000 to SO, =
900 according to the kind of plant
bought and it has been estimated
that it would cost from $1,000 to
$4,000 each year to gather the gar
( bage and dispose of it. The commit
tee which has been investigating
this matter has not finished the work
yet and so this speech was simply a
discussion of the various methods
i and their good and bad points.
The regular business meeting was
held previous to this speech. At this
meeting Miss Mabel Conner read
several interesting communications
, to the local body. One of these was
from the National Headquarters of
the League asking that delegate be
sent from this city to Chicago, to
take part in national mass meeting
which is to be held there January s,
l9222, to further the work of the dis
armament program. Similar meet
ings will be held on the same day
both in Japan and in England.
A short time was then devoted to
the reading of the treaty of the Dis
armament conference.
After the talk by Mr.. Clark, Miss
Mabel Conner read and discussed an
article by Mrs. Carrie Chapman

maries, and with other usgaes of

Civic Questions
Discussed Before
League Women Voters

George G. Clark, secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce, delivered q
fine talk Tuesday evening before the
members of the local organization
of the League of Women voters at
the "Y" assembly hail. He spoke on
the garbage question that is arous-
ing so much interest in this city at
the present time.
There are, according to Mr.. Clark,
only three systems OF garbage dis
posal that are feasible in a city of
the size of Augusta. These are the
sanitary fill system. the system of
feeding to hogs and the incinerating
system. The first is a plan whereby
some place is selected. such as a ra-
vine or perhaps a place like that be-
hind the stockade on the river side
of old Fort Weston. The ashes are
hauled here and after the garbage
has been dumped here the ashes are
thrown over it. But there are num-
crous objections to this system. One
is that it forms a breeding place for
that it is productive of an odor that
is not especially pleasing.
The idea of feeding to hogs has
been tried out in Portland. In that
city it has cost them from $1,000 to
$4,000 according to the way the
hogs grew, the price rose and fell
and other things that would affect
the returns from the pork. 1t has
been figured that in this city it would
cost about $1,000 year to dispose
OF the garbage in this manner. Here
again we meet with objections. The
place where the hogs are kept will
also offer a place for the breeding

St. Marks Mems Club Meets

A very fine meeting of the Mems
Club of st. Marks church was held
Tuesday evening at the Parish house.
The men assembled at $50 and at
once they started to consume de-
licious supper which was awaiting
them. This supper consisted of crab
meat salad. mashed potatoes, macar-
oni, hot rolls, ice cream, acke and
coffee. Music was furnished for the
occasion by an orchestra composed
Of Cony boys.
After supper an entertainment was
staged by BILLY" Peterson of Port
land who is well known among trav-
cling men. Mr. Peterson gave an
impersonation Of Raymond Hitchcock
that was greatly enjoyed. He then
gave a number of monologues includ-
ing one each Of the "Rube," French
and Swedish varieties.
There was large attendance and
everybody had rousing good time.

Fire at II North Street

The Augusta fire department was
called out about 9 o'clock Tuesday
afternoon for q fire at the home of
James Carney, II North street. Not
much damage was done as the fire
was discovered soon after it started
and was extinguished by the use of
the two large chemicals. The COM
bination hose from the Hartford sta
ton was called by still alarm and
when the men arrived they found
that the fire which originated in a
partition on the ground floor at q
point where a stove pipe entered it,
had worked up to the upper floor.
They thought that it would be well
to have the rest of the department
on hand in case Of necessity, so pull
ed an alarm. The fire was soon I'M
der control and although a hose was
run to the nearest hydrant it was not
needed.
