| were smart, and brisk pace was
set by the B. U. boys who competed
against local boys.
The feature of the morning was
the drawing of the prize bull donat-
ed by P. S. Thorsen of the Thorsen
Farms. This is a blue-ribbon Hol-
stein worth considerable money, and
the drawing was held in postoffice
square at about L O'clock During
the recent food fair, Mr.. Thorsen
announced he would give prize
HOlste1n bull to be drawn for July 4
| ricketts, at S each were sold at the
fair, and but few were left on sale
yesterday. The remaining tickets
were soon disposed of when Mayor
Foster mounted truck and made
his announcement. Selling was soon
over, and the prize ticket was drawn,
the lucky winner being w. F. Gross
OF Orland. This feature alone has
added considerable to the high school
building fund.
Inc morning sports over. the
crowd moved on to the churches.
where splendid dinner was served
IN each by the members of the
women's societies
There were no sports at the begin
ming of the afternoon At 100 the
crowd began to pack Hancock han
for the boxing exhibition. It filled
the hall to a larger capacity than
ever before.
The tights were remarkable inter-
esting and closely followed by the
enthusiastic fans. The preliminary
bout between picked men from the
summer school, Fallon and Dona-
hue, was fast, and showed clever
amateur work. In a semi-fnal by
two clever boxers, "Bat" Downey
and K. O. Mitchell, Downey had the
better of it. The feature of the dav
was the twin-six main bout between
Ernest Mcintyre, the colored boxer
from Bangor, and Sailor Eddie
Trembley of Boston This was a
live-wire affair, and was conceded to
be one of the best exhibitions re-
Gently held in this section of the
State. 1t was a fast bout, and Nc
1ntyre held Trembley throughout
the first six rounds, putting up
splendid exhibition. In the latter
part of the second bout. he began to
weaken, and tried to cover up from
the tremendous punching of Trem-
bley He was practically out but
still gamely trying to keep his feet,
when, at the request of Mayor Eos
ter, the exhibition was stopped by
the referee, Jim Greeley of Bangor
1t was good show and highly ap-
preciated by the sporting blood
present.
After the bout the crowd drifted to
Wyman park, where the B. u sum-
mer school team met and defeated a
team from the Bangor post. V. F. W.
