Salem, Mass, Oct. 2s.-In a long
drawnout game, with much
wrangling with the officials, Salem
defeated Bangor II to 0. Two
touchdowns, field goal and a safety

Much fumbling by Bangor caused
it's downfall.
Salem made a steady march to-
wards the Bangor goal with a Is
yard run through center by Chau-
rette, who fumbled and recovered on
Bangor's Vineyard line. n four
plunges the ball was over, Salem
failed on a try for goal.
Another steady march by Salem,
aided by penalties, was halted on
Bangor's is yard line, and then
Cunningham drop kicked a neat tieid
goal from 23-yard line. A nice tor
ward pass from Cunningham to
Chaurette. who ran Is yards for a
touchdown resulted in Salem's scor-
ing a second touchdown. Salem's
last points resulted from a bad finn
BILE by Bond of punt which rolled
behind Bangor's goal, where it was
recovered for safety.
Chaurette played a sterling game
with line plunges and Cunningham's
field goal was a feature. Red Lynch.
Bangor's right tackle was the out

playing better football in the second
halr than in the first and in a meas
ure the Garnet gridders live up to
this standard, although unable to
score again. Bowdoin too speedcd up
a bit and especially in it's assaults
on the line, which were stronger than
IN the opening half, but which vet
were not sustained enough to march
down the field. The fumbling jinx
was ever present with the White
leather carriers and two or three bad
passes aided and abeted this fault.
Bates was within an ace of scoring
another touchdown just after the
start Of the fourth period. Moulton
hurled a skyscraper for 80 yards
and the ball sailed over the Bowdoin
goal line, but just as a Bates man
was about to grab it, Joe Smith
leaped high in the air and knocked

NO MORE GOPHER BOUNTIES
County Commissioners Decide to
Supply Poisoned Oats Instead

The county commissioners In ses-
sion late Thursday afternoon decided
to discontinue the practice of paying
b0unties on gopher scalps. For the
past ten years bounty Of 10 cents
each has been paid by the county In
an effort to encourage the destruc-
ton Of the pests. The new ruling
will take effect April l and all farm
crs having scalps now should claim
their bounty before that date. The
county has paid an average of ST.
600 a year for scalps alone.
The commissioners plan now to
secure poisoned oats from the State
Agricultural College and furnish
them free Of charge to farmers who
sign an agreement to use them ac-
cOrding to instructions from college
experts.
