2 COLBY STARS
SIGN Up WITH
W0RUMBO nine

Especial to the Kennebec JournaD
Waterville, May 23-Two of Colby's
star baseball men have signed up for
the summer with Harry Lord in the
Worumbo Mill team OF Lisbon Falls
to play with that team in the newly
formed Maine eight-team league. The
two wearers of the Blue and Gray are
Captain Bobby E'ransen and Jack
McGoWan.
Captain Fransen attained his emf
hence last year by playing a stellar
game at shortstop for Colby for two
years, making the mythical ALI Maine
team in both his freshman and soph-
omore years on the team. He is now
a junior and looks as though he
would pull down the snort stop posi-
ton on the mythical aggregation
again this year. At present. Captain
Fransen is standing second in the
batting averages of the college play
ers in New England with his brother
Everett leading all college men. At
the end Of bis freshman year in col
lege, Fransen went with Wilkle
Clarke's Easterns at Brewer. Last
summer he played with the Bar Har-
Dor team for six weeks and then went
back to the Easterns for the rest or
the season. Fransen has always play
a. short stop. F'ransen's home is In
Lynn, Mass.
MCGOWAN likewise has had honors
on the Mythical All-Maine team,
winning the position Of first base last
wear in his first year of college base
ball. This year MCGOWAN has come
back to his old form and IL going
good in the field and at bat. Mac
is considered to be one of the best
initial sack men that Maine colleges
have seen in some time. Last summer
he played at first with the Livermore
Falls aggregation and the summer
before that he was with the Bethle-
ham team in the White Mountains.
MCGOWAN attended Westbrook Semi
nary before entering Colby. His home
is in Cambridge, Mass.
Contrary to reports. Everett Fran
sen has not signed with any team In
Maine for this summer. He stated
Yesterday that he would not play
summer baseball at all. Fransen. who
starred in track last and this year, is
a new conner to Freddie Parents
crew but has bolstered the team re-
markably. He IL sure fielder and
the heaviest and most CONSTANT hit

Captain Talberth would not be able
to play but now the Elm City team

be the best tennis game ever seen
