bridge first sacker would not be able
10 play tomorrow and maybe not for
a week yet. The Colby team is
greatly weakened both in the field
and in batting through the loss Of
the lanky yearling. 1t Is thought
that he may get into the Maine game
at Orono Saturday for few innings
to loosen his ankle up bit, but in
all probability will not play a full
game until able to run.
The athletic authorities at Colby
are preparing for a record breaking
crowd at the game tomorrow after
noon, as the interest in the local col
lege aggregation is running high and
the townspeople are backing the
Blue to the limit. Three sections of
the large stadium are to be reserved
for the afternoon and it is expected
that the structure will be filled to
capacity.
The lineup will be the same as
usual as the batting combination has
worked we'll all season. Johnny
Lanpher will be on the receiving end
as usual and will head the smuggling

ed from the field to second and has
showed up we'll in the tight place.
Shanahan will play right field and
comes third on the lineup, followed
by Royal at third base. Bobby Fran
sen will occupy his usual position at
short and will come fifth on the list.
The diminutive Colby star has been
pasting the apple for some healthy
wollops and stands at the head of
the Colby lads in batting average.
He will be followed by Wilson at left
field and Fagerstrom, who will cover
the initial sack. Howard will play
at center field.

Waterville. May 22-The Coburn
Classical Institute team will face the
nine of Lawrence High school to-
morrow afternoon at Fairfield for the
annual baseball game between the
Two schools. The game is called for
-. o'clock on the Lawrence diamond.
Coach Ray Haines expects a
tough battle to be put up by the
Fairfield lads and has prepared his
charges for the fray. The workout
this afternoon was the hardest of the
season as it will be the last one be-
fore the upstate trip.
Lawrence always puts up stiff
argument against the Maroon teams
and this year will be no exception.
The Haines coached nine will have a
job on their hands solving some of
the mighty Bragg's premier offerings.
Last year the Coburn outfit collected
only three hits from the Lawrence
twirler arr he famed IL men. The
Lawrence ball tossers collected six
hits from Brown and the Maroon
hurler secured nine strikeouts.
The Coburn team has not the
twirler that Brown was and on this
end of the game is weak. 1t is ex-
pected that either Schmiedel or
Shanahan will start the contest to-
morrow afternoon. Shanahan hurled
a first class game against the strong
Westbrook seminary team last Sat-
urday and looks as though he had the
goods.
Coach Haines will use the follow
ing batting order: MatherS IF, Nc
Creary 2b, Fielder SIS, Schmiedel or
Shanahan p. Mcleod If, O'Brien C,
Bowe or Shanahan lib, Ingraham CT,
Mihnchan 3b. This is practically the
same combination as used last Sat
urday against Westbrook and proved
to be very effective in the pinches.

Does a good pitcher use a
different style of delivery for
the different sorts of balls he
pitches?

URBAN ("RED') FABER
Pitcher, Chicago White Sox, the man
who allowed less runs per game than
any other pitcher in the big leagues
during the season Of 1922.
Every ball pitched should be pre-
ceded by almost the same sort Of
motion and delivery. Otherwise the
opposing batters will soon know
just what is coming by the style Of
wind-up a pitcher is using. Deliver
the fast ones, the slow ones, the
straight ones, and the crooked ones
from the same spot, as nearly as
possible.

DIR. WEIzMAN To GET
CHECK FOR $4,000
New Britain Jews to Attend Biz
Meeting in Hartford

| n is expected that ESQ Jewish resi-.
dents Of New Britain will go 10 Hart.
ford tomorrow 10 greet the great Zion
list statesman and leader. DR.. Chain
Weizman. who will speak in tho Capt.
tol thcater at . y. m. The Jews OF
this state have carried on an inten-
sive campaign TO raise $50. 900 for the
Eeren Hayesod or the Palestine
Foundation fund. At the meeting Sun
day a check for this amount will be
presented to DR.. Weizman.
DR.. Weizman Is today the recognize
cd spokesman of the Jewish people
the world over. Born in the village
of Motele In the province ,of Wilma,
Poland, he showed promise from his
childhood days Of great ability. When
Or. Weizman reached the age OF 1o
his father emigrated to England and
to the city of Manchester fell the dis
tinction of giving the world the great
Weizman. In school Weizman proved
himself an educational marvel. dis
tinguishing himself in political science
and chemistry. At the age of 90 he
became instructor Of chemistry in the
University of Manchester and short
time later became professor in chem
istry which position he still holds.
While the fact was for a long time
kept secret for various reasons. it is
now an open fact that hundreds of
thousands of men on the battlenelds
owed their lives to a wonderful chem
ica discovery by DR.. Weizman. But
great as his ability was along chemi-
cal lines far greater was his ability in
the world political arena. Through
his great organization abilities Weiz-
man became world figure at the
outbreak of the World War. Busy as
he was doing his share to bring vic
tory to the land of his adoption, he
nevertheless found time to save the
Zionist organization which was badly
disrupted by the war. Together with
Noham Sokolow, he was instrumental
in obtaining the Balfour declaration,
the first official recognition of the
Zionist aims. Greater victories fol-
lowed his first triumph and 1t was
mainly through the efforts of DIR.
Weizman in bringing the justice OF
the Jewish claims before tho allied
that the Zionist aims were
in the treaty of Sevres
better known as the San, Reno deci-
sion. His untiring efforts brought A.
nal success to the Zionist cause by the
of the British mandate
over Palestine by the English parlia-
ment and the League of Nations
Since 1914 New Britain Jews have
given generously to the cause which
Neizman represents, and 1t will be
with pleasure that they will greet
heir leader Sunday.
