Waterville, June 1-Coburn CLASH
cal Institute will clash with the ball
tcssers from kent's Hill tomorrow
morning for the State prep schools
title on Libby field at 10 o'clock. The
game promises to be ono of the best
this year and the way that the Co.
burn team has been travelling the
last few weeks. the local ball fans are
agreed that the Maroon stand fine
chance of winning the state pennant.
The team was given a rest this
afternoon because the field was being
used for the Kent's Hill dual track
meet but the men have been going
through some hard workouts the last
week and are all primed to meet the
mighty Hartsgrove and his band of
bat singers. 1t is generally under
stood that the Hill team will start
the fast IartsgrOve in the contest to-
morrow. Ne nearly whitewashed the
local prep school lads in the last
game played at Readfield but since
that time the Coburnitcs have been
hitting like fiendS and his luck may
not hold good tomorrow morning. In
the last five games the Maroon ag
Grcgation of sluggers have managed
to collect So hits and in the last two
weeks have slammed the pill for to-
tai of more than 100 bingles.
In all probability, Ingraham will
draw the assignment to hurl for the
locals tomorrow with both Schmicdcl
ard Shanahan on the reserve in case
of danger. Coach Haines stated last
night that he would not use the lanky
new hurler unless absolutely neces-
sary as he was a very valuable man
on the first sack.

two firsts in the sprints and easily dis
tanced his nearest rival in each of
these events.
The Kents Hill team lost five sure
points in the kalf-mile relay race when
Randlette cut the corners on the second
lap of the race. Mathers and Watson
led off on the first lap. The Hill lad
had the pole. but the Coburn flash
kept neck and neck with him and hand
ed the pole to Goldberg with a few
inches to spare. Goldberg tore around
his lap. but Randlctte. running close
behind him and not wanting to cut out
to one side, undertook to pass the Co.
burn man on the right hand side near
est the side of the track and cut across
the grass several feet. He did, how
ever. get the lead on Goldberg and on
the next lap Shanahan was distanced
by Suarez. Mittlesdorf made a great
try to even up the race on the last
round but failed by a few inches. The
judges saw the Hill runner cutting
corners and disqualified the kents Hill
team and awarded the points to Co
burn.
The two GROWING events of the
afternoon were the 440 and $50 yard
runs. Wescott started the half mile
off for the Maroon at a fast pace and
lead until he was passed by the lit
tile Hill lad on the last turn. WOOD
passed him and made a valient try
to catch the Red jersied runner but
failed. In the 440 yard dash the
contestants made a fast first half
lap until Suarez again came to the
fore and finished with a few feet
to spare with Hardy of Coburn fin
ishing a good second. Both men
were practically exhausted at the
finish of the fast dash.
"Smiler" Adams furnished the
crowd a thrill in the high jump,
when he cleared the bar with a good
four inches to spare for a first place
at five feet. seven inches. The lanky
Coburn star goes over the bar with
a good deal of ease and easily COPIED
the first place. The nearest second
to Adams mark was made by Garlic
ton of Kent's Hill, who drew down
a mark of five feet, four inches,

COLBY TACKLES

This AFTERNOON
Especial to Kennebec Journal.

\SpeCIdl W heHHeDeC JOuFndl.)
Waterville, June Colby will
play host to the invading Maine
Bears ON Seaveren's field tomorrow
afternoon in the last of the state
series games which will be pulled
off in Waterville. Providing the
weather is at all like real baseball
weather should be, there will be a
record crowd on the Woodman
Memorial stadium to witness the
last clash of the season in the state
league.
The Blue team has had the worst
of slumps in the past two weeks and
have lost the last three games, after
winning eight straight. 1t is thought
that the Waterville collegians be-
came overconfident after their three
tough wins in Massachusetts over
strong opponents and blew up just
in time to drop two state series
games, one to Bowdoin and the last
to Maine. The showing of the Colby
lads at Medford on Memorial Day
was terrible from all accounts as
the local nine were at sea better
part of the game. The ten errors
chalked up against the Colby crew
showed plainly that they half tried
to play ball.
The men have put in two hard
days since their return from Med
ford in an effort to erase the defects
in the last minute and stage a come
back in the next two games. The
infielders have been given hours of
practise and the batting order run
over time and again by Coach Pa
rent in hopes of righting the playing
of the team.

of the third round. His steady iron
work through the day was RESPONSE
BILE for his victory after the first half
that left him but a slim chance.
