'BOWDOIN STARTS
RELAY CAMPAIGN
after HOLIDAYS
Especial to Kennebec JournaD

Brunswick. Nov. e5.-The call for
candidates for the Bowdoin varsity re-
lay team will be given the first week
in December after the Thanksgiving
holidays. Coach Magee is a believer in
a good rest before starting a more or
less strenuous winter campaign, and
for the past several weeks the men
have been taking things easy. He
does not believe in early board train
ing, and the squad will work out at
first in accordance with this precept.
Not man is lost from last years
record-breaking team and indications
point to one of the fastest mile quar-
tets in New England. However, Ma
gee is playing il safe and is making
no predictions, saying = at he will be
willing to talk after the season is over.
The schedule calls for a race at the
Boston Athletic Association games.
and also one or two other races
around Boston. Bowdoin will also be
represented at the I. c. A. A. A. A. in
door meet to be held in New York the
latter part of the season.
Last years veterans who will he
back include Bob Foster. .kack"
Hamilton. John Tarbcll and Hal" Lit
tlefield. the four who ran on the team
which defeated Brown. Dartmouth,
Williams and Maine. Foster who is
captain of the varsity track team. is
senior, while the remaining three are
juniors. Foster, winner OF the half
mile in the New Englands for the past
two years, is rated as one of the fast
est middle distance men in New Eng
land. Littlefield. who ran on the relay
team last year. is New England cham
pion in the low hurdles. Both Hamil-
ton and Tarbell are very fast men. The
former barely lost to Archibald or
Bates in the State meet last spring IN
the quarter. and the following Satur
day he defeated him at the New Eng
lands. Tarpell is one OF the most
promising men developed by Coach
Magee A rank outsider. he gave all
the headliners a tough battle in the
800 at Lewiston last spring.
Among other men who will he out
for relay are Leon Spinney, Charlie
Berry: Er Planning. Sam Hull. Harry

Webster, star anchor man OF the crack
relay team OF two years ago, would be
able TO come out for the team, but he
will he unable to do so because OF
scholastic difficulties. 1t goes without
saying that he would have made a
great addition to the team. Don Ma
son, who won the quarter in the state
meet two years ago. and who has been
ineligible. will be out. and he undoubt-
eddy will make a strong bid for a place.

The Coburn football team went
through a very successful season
this fall although they did not
win the championship. The team
lost but one game and incidentally
that was the only game in (which
their goal line was crossed.
AT the outset of the season
prospects were not very bright for
a good team but as the season
progressed the team began to show

However Coach Haines found that

OF intelligence so that he had nodded
together quite machine as the
time for the first game approached.

Polar Cubs proved to be strong

mentor was obliged to send his
regulars into the fray. the gam
ended in a scoreless tie.
The Kents Hill game was on thc
card for the next game and Coburr

work in preparation for the deciding
game with the Big Green team from

a hard battle and the men, with the
exception of one or two. were In

classic WAS played at Garcelor

plenty of followers. 1t was expected
that Coburn would win and Hebron
