The above is the regular lincups
representing the best there is or
rather was in baseball in tie years
gone by. There are others well
known in the past days as high grade
ball players who will also be seen
IN action. probably taking the places
of those who tire or get manned
through too much base sliding or
perhaps spiked by the opponents,
for their is bitter rivalry and most
anything may be done to turn the
tide Of battle should extreme action
be necessary.
There's Hon. John Nelson who has
said he'd strive to his uttermost if
he had TO. then there are Z. Goodwin.
Charles Bone, Bill Warre!!, Ted
Emery, DR.. Warren Sanhorn, Gov.
John Hadley. DR.. Jackson. Frank
Southland and the always pleasant
dentist DR.. Thomas. These men will
be ready If called upon as a second
AIRY defense should things get too
hot.
No one can argue concerning
Coach Thompson as a catcher, he
did that stunt when in college, and
he knows the game too. Cony High
showed that this season when they
copied the championship of Maino
and wound up by trimming the much
touted English High of Lynn, all
done under the tutelage of Coach
Thompson.
The other end of the Kiwanis bat
terry is Laurence "Runt" Puringtop.
huff sed," Went to Maine. he did
something up there, you all know
what it was too. Sam Titcomb at
first, Arthur Tiff1n on short. DIR.
Priest at third, all past masters in
the art of baseball. And it was long,
long ago, that the Rev. H. f. Dun
mack capered about the diamond, but

actively engaged. in everything pos
sible for him to get into, so we ex-
pect that the Rev. will stage a come
back well worth seeing. The Hon.
Frank harrington, was a BOwdoin
man, ball player with a wonderful
record. Frank loves baseball, he
knows baseball and Wednesday he'll
play baseball. Burleigh Martin
clever tennis player and in Cony
High school days a baseball player
whose notable achievements made a
place for him in the old Cony's Hall
of Fame. George Ellinwood is a boxer
but they say he'll play baseball even
better than he boxes.
The Rotary, with Supt. Burrill on
the receiving end is surely we'll

to do with it, they say he used to
catch, we don't know, but We'll let
pitcher, is we'll known, while Dan
Nash on first will bring back the
days of 96-97-9S, when he was CAL
culated to be about the best in the
State. He played on the Augusta
locals, who travelled to Belfast, Wa
terville. Lewiston and other places,
and his name was in print in many
papers. Charles Kinsman of ,Cony
High and Bowdoin fame, in both
baseball and football. Twas Charlie
who scored on Harvard in Harvards
own back yard. and his name blazed
with glory in the publications from
Boston town. George Williams, an
other old timer, a pitcher and a
fielder. to say nothing about being
real sticker. University of Maine
boosted of his services, and he was
good. Roland Scribner another OLD
Cony player, will make another mark
for himself beyond any :oubt. Blaine
Viles. in olden days, Capt. Viles of
the Skowhegan High school, could
surely play the game and they say he
can do it today also. John Wadleign
is as full of life as of yore and will
make a good account of himself,
while Paul Sargent of the Highway
and E. E. Newbcrt of Ocean Point
development, are capable of most
anything on the ball field.
They are all going to stage come
