Hebron, Me-, Oct. 2S.-The He
bron football squad is receiving
plenty of hard work in preparation
for the Kent's Hill game Saturday.
The Hebron team Is about two weeks
from it's highest point of efficiency
and many ragged spots still remain
to be polished off. Exeter is the
Hebron objective this year and the
coaches are bringing the Big Green
along carefully SO they may be al
their best week after next. Hebron
has never won from Exeter and eV-
cry effort will be strained to cap
ture this battle. To date the He
bron team has defeated the BOW
doin second and freshman teams,
Colby freshman and M. c. 1. All
four games were played on muddy
fields with about ~ men gettlng mo
the lineup on each occasion, so
Hebron has no closely defined var
sity but has instead two teams which
are interchangeable and nearly
equal. Force of numbers defeated
M. C. I. equally as much as supe-
rior playing and Hebron expects TO
crush Kent's Hill in the same man
ner.
Injuries have taken four first team
men from the active service list oul

Skowhegan Confident
Trimming Lawrence

Especial to the Kennebec Journal)
Skowhegan, Oct. 2S.-Coach Dos
tie reports his team in good condi-
ton after the hard game with Wa
terville High last week and is all
set for the game Saturday at SHOW
hegan>with Lawrence. On paper
these teams seem to be almost per-
fectly matched and one OF the hard
est games of the season is antici-
pated. It is time that Hartland
trimmed the home team by ono
touchdown and Lawrence won from
Hartland by the same score. This
does not show the strength of the
teams. however, as Skowhegan play
ed their opponents off their feet in
the last three quarters and have
since learned to start lighting from
the first kickoff. Buck DeWeever
of Dexter has been secured as ref
cree. The home game has been call
ed early so as to allow a quick get
away for the Maine-Colby game at
Waterville.

Several Old Grid
Rivals Will Clash
Coming Saturday

New York, Oct. 2S2-(By the AS
sociated Press)-Football rivalr1es
that 20 back into the more or less
dim past of the game will bloom forth
in their 1925 revivals this SATURDAY
in four of the contests that hold the
interest of the eastern fans.
There is no traditional color con-
nected with the outstanding two In
tersectional clashes of the week.
Those involving Michigan-Navy and
Pennsylvania Illinois, but there is q
wealth of background to the contests
that bring together Army and Yale
at New Haven, Cornell and Columbia
at the Polo Grounds and Dartmouth
and Brown at Providence. In addi-
ton there is the renewal of the dis
pute between two old New England
schools, Trinity and Wesleyan, which
goes back to 1885.
Yale holds a big edge over the
Army in their series of gridiron con-
f1icts, started in 1898. but the Mule Is
primed for revenge on the Bulldog
this week with more than a fair
chance of gaining it, in the opinion
of many critics. Not since 1911. when
the army won by to 0. have the
cadets raised the victory cheer at
New Haven.
Dartmouth dates It's warfare Will
Brown back to 1894 and the Big
Green eleven, acknowledged to be
among the most powerful in the east
this year, is cut to square the count
with the Brunonians. who have won
ten and lost nine games so far in
the series between the two New Eng
land rivals. Brown has not been vic
torious since 1919 but if 1t can sum-
mon reserve strength sufficient to
bolster up it's weakened line. hard hit
by injuries in the Yale and Penn
games, the bars may make it more
interesting for Dartmouth than is ex-
pected.
Columbia has not beaten Cornell
since 1905, but Coach Charley Crow
ley's proteges are conceded good
chance of breaking the spell this
week. Columbia undoubtedly has
the best eleven it has produced since
reviving football. The New Workers
should give a strenuous tussle to the
skaters. who so far have run
rough shod over all opposition.
Preparing for their own historical
struggle the following week Prince
ton and Harvard. rallying from set
backs last Saturday, should have
comparatively little touble taking the
measue of Swarthmore AMI William
and Mary, respectively. this week.

THORPE SLIPPING
AS GRID PLAYER;
AGAIN TAKES WIFE

New York, Oct. 2S.-(By The AS
ISOLATED Press.) -Released by the
New York professional football club
because of his failure to get into
proper playing condition, Jim
Thorpe, famous Indian athlete, has
signed another contract-in matri-
mony-and is now honeymooning on
his way East.
The announcement today that the
former Carlisle star had been cut
adrift by the PRO" team was coup
led with the disclosure that he had
married Miss Freeda fitzpatrick of
Endicott, w. Va. 1t Is his second VEN
ture in matrimony. He was divorce
ed last year in Oklahoma on
grounds of desertion. Thorpe came
to the New York team from Rock
Island, Ills. which also holds a
franchise in the new National
League, with the understanding that
he must get into condition to obtain
an engagement here. Two weeks
ago he played against Philadelphia
team but failed to show anything
like his oldtime form and was with
drawn. He has been handicapped
by an injured knee, which failed to
respond to treatment. 1t Is consider
ed doubtful that he will play again
this season.
Thorpe is SO years old, and in his
failure to gain regular position on
the local team, athletic observers see
the end of his spectacular athletic
career. The big Indian has had a
checkered career but also one of the
most marvellous all around records
in competitive history. He first
gained nationwide fame as grid
iron star at the Carlisle School,
Pennsylvania, winning a place on
Walter Camps all-American teams
of 1911 and 1912. AS a member of
the olympic team the latter year,
Thorpe romped away with the all
around track and field champion
ship events but later was deprived
of his medals and athletic glory by
the discovery that he had previously
lost his amateur standing by playing
in a professional baseball game.
Thorpe later turned to the dia-
mond for a living and was signed by
the New York Giants but failed to
measure up to big league calibre.
In the past few years he has play
ed both professional baseball and
football, shifting from one place to
another still flashing at times the
brilliancy that came of his natural
athletic ability.

CONY EXPECTS TO
AvENGE SETBACK
next SATURDAY

Deering, unkind conquerors OF
Cony last year to the decisive tune
of 46 to 0, is making a visit to the 10
cal school Saturday. It's needless to
say that they will be warmly receiv-
ed for last year, just when the Red
and White had apparently hit it's
stride and was due to finish the sea-
son without another setback, the
weareSs of the Purple administered
the above walloping to Cony.
However. last year was last year,
and when the invaders line up on
Cony this week end they will be
without the altogether too capable
services of Johnny Frates, who isn't
in the Deerins line-up this year. And
the Cony team this year isn't a team
of defensive tactics as was the case
much of the time last season. Where
the team last season was strictly
defensive aggregation, stubbornly
contesting every inch Of ground down
the field, this years outfit is a
smashing, tearing team that has IN
every case but one battered its way
to ties or decisive victories.
Cony, with ap owerful line and one
of the most highly oplished backf1elds
in high school circles this year has
proven to be one of the best drawing
cards in the state. At Bangor they
drew a mob of enthusiastic fans and
the same thing applied to Lewiston.

fast type of football they should draw

Class Relay to
Be Run Off at
Bates-BOwdOin Game
Especial to Kennebec JournaD

Brunswick, Me-, Oct. 2s.-An inter-
class relay race to be run between
the halves Of Saturdays game with
Bates has been arranged by Coach
Jack Magee Of the Bowdoin track
team. Coach Magee's purpose in stag
ing this race is to give the graduates
Of Bowdoin who will be back Saturday

ning-ran on the varsity team which
in 1924 defeated Dartmouth, Maine,
williams and Brown, and in 1925 de-
feated Maine, Williams and Yale. The
fourth member of the team VIII be
Cy Webster, who will take the place
of Bob Foster. Webster is member
Of a former Bowdoin relay team and
at one time held the Augusta cup rec
ord. The seniors will be given plenty
Of competition by the other teams, as
the sophomores and freshmen especial
ly have several fast men who, al
though they lack experience. should
be able to give the varsity plenty of
competition. Chef MacKeen and Jim
White were again the outstanding men
in the freshman track trials, winning
most of today's events. The results
were as follows:

position opposite Frank Harrington
at half back, with Walter Morrell in
the full back position and Vahey at
quarter. Hovey was tried at quarter
with Means and Cutler half backs
and Howes at full, while Bob Ohm
stead was tried both combinations
at half. The varsity played mainly
on the offensive and repeatedly
rushed the second team off its feet.

Hagen will play in the open

that this struggle of the premier
