USE OF WILLIAMS FIELD FOR
SUMMER BASEbh ALL ASSURED
FIRST CAME PROBABLY ON oath

The Board of Directors of the
Chamber of Commerce are of the
opinion that the use of Ruel Williams
field for baseball games this season
should be permitted. While the
directors desire that the field be rut
into proper condition as soon as can
be under all circumstances, yet 1t
has been understood among the mer-
Giants and citizens that there would
be ball games this season and on
this understanding agreements have
ben made and expenses incurred so
that unless the field can now be used
the results will be unfortunate and
ulIwise.
1t was pointed out that seeding
,ithin few days would give good
start and re-seeding in the worn
places in the fall could be accom-
plished to good advantage. 1t was
suggested that the baseball associa-
ton give such care in the matter
of watering as might be required dur
ing the summer. 1t was also sug-
gested the team practice in Capital
Park.
The Board then went into executive
session and voted to push the work
on the field to completion as fast
as possible and to allow the use of
the field for summer baseball as soon
as possible, which will probably be
in time for the first game of the Au-
Susta team on June "a
Daily Kennebec journal., 1922-06-08

A delegation Of business men and
representatives of the Augusta
Chamber of Commerce and the Au-
Susta Baseball Association met with
the Board of Education last evening
to request that the baseball assacia-
ton be given the use of Ruel Will
liams field this season. AS President
Blaine Niles said, I'VE have gone
to a great expense in hiring our team
and our people very generously res
ponded to the call for funds through
the annual baseball carnival, but
we woui. not dare to attempt a sea-
son of baseball in the face of certain
loss if we had to put our games on
in Capital Park" Everyone is look
irg for a summer of exciting baseball
and that is why the funds were voted
for the field.
Mr.. Stuart gave very complete
report concerning the progress made
thus far on the field and stated that
when the field is ready it will be one
of the best, if not the very best, base
ball field in Maine. The fense has
been donated by the students of Cony
High school and everything has been
done to give the people a field of
which they may well be proud.
a resolution passed Monday by the
Board of Directors of the Augusta
Chamber of Commerce was then in
trodIcod by Secretary Clarke which
reads as follows:

FRED PARENT WILL
AGAIN COACH COLBY
BASEBALL SQUAD
Especial 10 Kcnnebec JournaD

waterville, Me, June FIRED Pa
rent, coach of the Colby baseball team
this spring, made the announcement
this morning at the rally before the
Bates-Colby game that he had signed
up to stay at Colby for the next two
years as baseball coach.
At the announcement the students
broke loose with cheering that lasted
for several minutes. Coach Parent
came to Colby stranger this spring,
but after the first day he was ac-
quainted with half the students. AL
though the team has not been very
successful this year, the improvement
since the first of the season is so
great that there is much promise for
a winning nine next season.
Freddy Parent came to Colby to find
two veterans from last years team
Johnny Lanpher and Captain Spike"
Williams. With these two men as a
nucleus he has built up creditable
team from the bunch of freshman and
sophomore recruits. Williams and
Art" Sullivan, who held the right
field position most of the time, will
not be back, as they graduate, but all
th> rest will be on deck if they decide
to continue at Colby.
