Hebron's Debating
Prospects Bright

Hebron, Me-, Jan. 10-Within the
next week Prof. Donald A. Shaw,
Hebron debating coach, will hold the
tryouts for the debating team. OF
the candidates who present them
selves two teams will be selected.
Hebron will probably debate Maine
Central Institute and Deering High
in the Bates College Triangular
League. Although Bates has not yet
given out the exact question to be de-
bated upon it is said that it will be
on something concerning the govern
ment ownership of coal mines in the
United States.
Hebron has some good men to
represent her on the forensic. Or
last years team there are Leon Spin
ney, Charles La Rocca and Welton
Earrow, who are Still at Hebron. In
the practice work there are some
new candidates who are showing
some ability in debate. Probably
one of the new men who will make
the team and ought to be valuable
asset to it is Cleveland Sleeper of
Rockland. Sleeper is an easy speak
er and seems to have the ability to
grasp a subject well.
Miss Elizabeth Whittier, who has
coached Hebron debating teams in
the past, will assist Prof. Shaw in
preparing the team.

Ovens Victory a Surprise

Lynn, Mass, Jan. 10.-The 100
fans who watched the bouts at the
Casino A. C. Monday night were
given a surprise when Paddy Owens
of Cambridge whipped Johnny
Sheppard Of Woburn, who has been
much touted of late as coming
lightweight.
OF the fast 10 rounds the men
fought, Owens took nine. He had
Sheppard going from the start. In
the fifth round Owens drove Shep-
pard to the ropes three times. The
Woburn man saved himself from go
ing down by hanging to the ropes.
Sheppard was warned three times
by the referee. Several of his blows
were dangerously low.
The fans were much dissatisfied
with the decision in the semifinal
when Billy Shine of C"incy was
given the award over Dinny Glynn
OF Roxbury. They fought eight
rounds and Glynn had the better of
most of them.
Young Garow OF Boston knocke d
out Kid Burns of Salem in the third
round Of their bout. frankie Buff
OF Holyoke got the decision over
Kid Phippin of West Newton. They
fought six fast rounds.

Is to be agreed upon. Both men are
now in training for the event.
Three other matches will also be
put on the same evening, Ernest Alb
bott will meet Sailor Brown, Balam
OF Gardiner will try Young Larrabee
and . preliminary will have two fast
boys. Each match will be two out of
three falls.
The two main bout men are well
known here. Spheeris is classed as
one OF our scientific middleweights
and has appeared often here. Brown
has been in the game for IA years
and showed here seven years ago
when touring Maine. He defeated
here Jack Curley OF Boston, the
Swede, and Omar Trueman Of Nor
way, the colored lad. He passed a
, year and half in the State and says
he defeated all corners. He weighs
172 pounds stripped and looks good.
Some OF tho fast men he has de-
feated are Joe Tanner of Washing

Spheeris challenges any middle
weight in the State or New England
But he says that he will not wrestle
two men. Ernest Abbott or Sailor
Brown. Abbott he bars because he
claims to have beaten him sufficiently
and he IL no longer drawing card
with Spheeris, the latter wishing to
give satisfaction to the public. He
says Sailor Brown has no reputation
around here and nothing to show for
credentials as a wrestler. If Brown
will gain a reputation he will meet
him in the future, provided he makes
good.
