WILL TRY TO LICK
BROWN SATURDAY
Especial to Kennebe. Ior,,.,,

~ 1AcAhepec JournaD
Watsrviaie, Oct. 2.-The Blue and
Gray gridders had their final work
out this afternoon on Seavern', field
at Colby college before the game
with Brown which will be played
Saturday at Providence Coach
Koundy gave his charges but little
hard work in the course of the pro-
gram this afternoon as he decided
the men decided a rest after the
strenuous days of the last week.
Practically all of the work today
was signal drill with some time he.
ting spent with kicking practise. This
department. seems to be about the
weakest on the Blue and GRAY team
bur with Millett back in the back
field. 1t will! be considerably bolster
ed up. Captain Ben" Soule spent
considerable time this Afternoon in
getting his educated toe" in trim
for any cha ices that he might have
to boot a few points over the bar in
the game Saturday. Ben's toe was
responsible for a win last season
which gave the Blue and Gray the
first championship team in a num-
Der OF years and he intends to keep
up with his work iE the art of kick
ing the ball over the bar via the drop
Kick route. Soule used O'Donnell
for considerable length of time IN
practising the kick from a number
Of angles and distances.
Miilett will not make the trip this
time TO Brown. Coach Roundy an
nounced as the stellar Colby back
field man is going to be kept for the
State series games. His injury is
entirely healed but the Blue and
Gray mentor does not wish to take
any chances OF having the valuable
linebucker laid up any more this
season. Millett suffered a severe side
strain in one OF the first scrimmages
Of the season and was not on the
field until the middle of thi week.
Coach Roundy feels that the To-
cal collegians will put up better
game against the Brown Bear than
they did against the University of
New Hampshire aggregation last
wee, ir. the Granite State college
town., Moynahan, O'Donnell and
McDay will appear in the locars line
up Saturday and the fact that the
first two mentioned linesmen will
be in the game gives reason enough
for this statement. Moynahan has
only been but since Monday but Is
rapidly rounding into condition and
will prove a valuable asset to the line
while O'Donnell has just recovered
from an injury which kept him out
Of scrimmage last week and the first
game of the season. McBay return
cd to college on Monday and Coach
Roundy Immediately recognized IN
the fleet-footed candidate a back
field man of ability.
Last season Colby met the Brown
aggregation in its rative demand was
defeated by the score of $40. The
team which appeared in Providence
last year was practically a second
string OUTFIT as most Of the regulars
were out on account OF Injuries sus-
tanned in some tough scrimIlage
rractises given by Coach Green the
week proceeding the game. This
Year the locals will be a great deal
stronger and should put up a better
game against the Hilltoppers.
The clcn picked by Coach RoUndy
to make the trip are as follows:
Sople, Rood Potter. Seldelman.
Keith, Moyrahan. Cowing. Lorensky.
Saucer. Carson. Mathers. johnson.
Whelpley, Weymouth, O'Donnell.
Bartlett. Peacock, Macpherson,
Smith, Shea. McBay, and Hale.
