games so far this season and has yet
TO suffer, a defeat. The aggregate Of
the points made by the little school
Just across the river from Waterville
is over 275 and the total of the points
scored on this team amount to a few
over 100 points.
1T is an unusual fact that Water
Vile High cannot play this team.
i he Watcrvilie crew say that their
schedule has been approved by the
board of education and cannot lie
changed, but they cannot lie very
anxious to change their schedule for
they have not tried to convince the
board that they would like to play
Winslow.
Local fans are eager for three
game series to decided the local title
and il IS an almost universal senti-
m"nt that WinslOw would capture at
least two OF This series. The Water
