while her evident strength is the
running events she will give Bow

over in the field contests. The Bates
supporters are making no advance
statements but realize that the re-
suit of the meet lies in the way in
which Bowdoin and Maine split the
field events.
In the dashes Bates relies on
Jake Landers. the little colored
flash to cop first place in both
events. Jake has been running very

Sporting Tabl0ids

The Alumni Field track at the
University of Maine is reported to
be in wonderful condition for the
Maine intercollegiate track meet at
Orono today. For the past two
weeks a crew of men under the SUI
pervision of Dennis Enright. builder
of Harvard stadium track at Cam
bridge, one Of the fastest in the
world. have been working on it.
Therefore some great performances
are expected.
South Portland High finished
their game Thursday with West
brook High under protest. which
will be entered with President Lewis
of the schoolboy league. During the
game. with a man on third and
second. the batter hit a fly to the
outfield and the throw was relayed
to the plate too late to get the man
who had held third until the catch.
However. Catcher Mcdonald of
South Portland. SAYS the man did
not touch the plate. which was
borne out when the latter made a
dash back for the plate after cross
ing it. and Mcdonald tagged him.
Umpire McDonough who had
ruled him safe once had turned to
watch the man coming from second
to third and did not see the after
math. She he could not rule. what
he did not see and his original rul-
ing stuck. South Portland protested
but continued the game.

base: George Warren. captain and
left field; Mcnish, LIST base; Bealce,
catcher: Corbett, ind base; and Big
Bill Willy, pitcher. Willy has shown
some real form in the games so far
played and he is a real menace to
opposing batters. He is a hitter of
no mean ability which is somewhat
remarkable for a pitcher. Charlie
LaRocca is showing up unusually
well this year. His snappy work on
the third sack is we'll worth watching
and he has all the earmarliS of valu-
