'Waterville High
Trims Colby FrOsh
In Cross Country
Especial to the Kennebec JournaD


Waterville, Me-, Nov. 1S.-Waterville
High today took the first dual cross
country run between that aggregation
and the Colby freshmen by a margin
or six points. The final score was:
Waterville 81, Colby freshmen SO.
The reason for the victory of the
purple jerseyed barriers vas that they
finished well punched and placed five
men in the first eight. The indiNldual
winner was Lines of the Colby team
and he won by wide margin over
his teammate, Savage. Lines is one
OF the most promising runners to en-
ter Colby for a long time and his work
today was but a continuation of his
excellent work during the fall meets
between the various classes and halls
Of the college.
Both teams ran in one bunch I'M
til they reached Sand Pit hill, which
is about one mile from the start OIL
the three mile course. This is the
spot where every race that is contest
ed over the Colby short course is
either won or lost. The hill is long
and steep and the superiority In en-
durance is here demonstrated. The
remainder the course is over lever
fields and a stretch of road with the
finish on the COlpy qudA tSA -iii1iO eioN
and thus give the contestants chance
to use their speed as we'll as endur-
ance.
In today's race the Colby men VINO
scored for their team were Lines. Saw
age, Brown. Hooper and Alberts, while
zee men on the Waterville team who
furnished the points for their team
were Gunny. Sleeper. Taylor, Potter
. and Bonsall.
The summary:

Football Champs Deaf to Urge Clash With Western lean
COburn Closes Big
Year for Football
Only One Defeat
(Special to the Kennebec JournaD

Especial to the kenneDeC JourHdl)
Watervllle, Nov. 1S.-The Coburn
football team schedule is finished
for the season with what might be
called a banner year and it is con-
sidered one of the best and success
full with the pigskin on the gridiron
The team that started with the most
inexperienced men in the early part
of the year and combined with that
the least promising of any year at
the school for many a fall came out
on top in it's great finish and sur
prised many of it's fans and hackers.
Ray Haines the Crimson and Gold
mentor deserves all the credit in
the world for putting out such
team on the field under the large
handicap he worked to develop such
a light and scrappy team as he did.
He started out with four veterans
and the rest of the squad was a
mystery to him and later lost one
of his best men, a veteran, which
put him in more deep water. Coach
Haines' work combined with his
assistant coaches Lobdel and Quack-
enbush should be congratulated to
the fullest extent for the success
which they helped to put the Co.
burn eleven at full swing.
The Coburn team opened its sea-
son with defeating the Colby second
by three touchdowns and from here
on the scores Of the team were only
by one touchdown margin which in
dlcated very close contests all
through the entire season. The team
met with some hard opposition es-
pecially in it's last three contests
which were thought by many fol-
lowers of the Crimson and Gold that
sure defeat would come from these
highly touted teams. But the con-
sistence of the Coach to keep his
men improving on each game they
had played showed the result in the
three games which the Coburn team
came out on top.
The Lynn Engineering game was
a hard fought battle and the Coburn
boys tied this team who had come
to Waterville with all confidence of
taking the local team over. Unfor-
tunately the local boys had some
hard luck and a possible victory was
taken from the Coburn men. In the
Colby Freshman game the College
boys were the favorites but here the
Coburn team had again improved
from its previous games and sur
prised the yearlings from the Col
lege and took them over by the
score of z to 0. The last and most
important game of the year was the
Kents Hill game which the local
team. entered the fray as having
only a fighting chance. The Coburn
pigskin chasers surprised her oppo-
nent and big rival by out-playing
them in every department of the
game. This game tied the local
school with Hebron team for the
Prep. school title. The team was
only scored on once and only beaten

Harvard and Yale
Clash Will Feature
GridirOn Saturday

New York, Nov. 1S.-(AP)-TWo OF
the oldest classics of the gridiron, one
of them between traditional foes that
have met in record total OF 50 con-
flicts, will call four elevens to the
center of the football stage Saturday
for their final appearances of the 1925
season.
Although the Lafayette-Lehigh Sc
ries does not date back as far as the
Harvard Yale struggle on the same
day, teams from the Pennsylvania
colleges played two games each sea-
son from 1884 to 1901 to run up a
total of conflicts exceeding that of
the big three" classic.
Lehighs outlook and enthusiasm
was dimmed in no small degree few
weeks ago by the death of the team $
clever quarterback, Charlie Prior,
whose spine was fractured in game
against West Virginia Wesleyan.
Yale has big margin over Harvard
since New Haven and Cambridge elev-
ems met for the first time in 1888. OF
the 43 games they have played. the
Blue has captured 23 against Is for
the Crimson. Five of their games re-
suited in tie scores.
Harvards chances have taken on
brighter hue as result of last Sat
urday's developments. The Crimson's
defeats at the hands of Holy Cross,
Dartmouth and Princeton were par

Captain Checks team with 80 VIC
tory over Brown, while the Yale CO.
horts were being toppled unexpectedly
by a raging Princeton Tiger.
A third classic provides interest
this week as a test for the unbeaten
and united Fordham eleven against
Georgetown at the Polo Grounds. OF
the IL games they have played, each
team has won six. Fordham was VIC
torious year ago, . to 6, and prob
ably will start favorite this week.
Army, Brown, Columbia and SYRIA
cuse on Saturday will prepare for
keener tests during the following
week. The cadets will take on Ursinus
at West Point, in preparation for their
game with the navy one week later,
while Brown looks upon it's game with
New Hampshire as a warm-up for the
Colgate battle Thanksgiving day.

Spider Murphy of Biddeford and

wind. Word comes from Biddeford
that Murphy was never in better con-
dition. Last time he appeared here
he showed the fans some great stuff,
but he did not show all his tricks and
has some great stuff up his sleeve.
Grant is also said to be training hard
for his bout and will try for k. o.
His win over <ayo Liberty demon
strates he is a real battler, for Liberty
is one of the toughest in the game.
Blue Nose Parent of Rumford has
never been seen locally but is a great
favorite in Lewiston and Portland He
is tough and rugged, fast and ag-
gressive. X Q. Chubbuck of Skowhe-
gan, his opponent, is a bull dog for
courage and grit and will make Par

Bud Fisher, the smiling siugger, and
Cocky Dubuc of Lewiston sure do
know how to handle their fives. Bud
is a great favorite in the Capital City
where he first got his start and his
friends will all be on hand to see him
cuff the Lewiston youngster. "Cochy''
will do some cutting himself and is
well able to make things interesting
for Fisher.
"Oily" Burt Tenney, the Hallowell
fash, is right in the pink. Yesterday
morning he found that his horses were
in need of shoeing, so while they were
munching their breakfasts he took a
keg of Neverslip horse shoes under
each arm (net weight of key zoo lbs.)
and starting from the Standard Oil
Co. in Hallowell strolled to Ernest
Wright's blacksmith shop in Augusta
that Ernest might have the shoes in
time after the horses had finished their
morning meal. Bystanders state that
Burt arrived at Wrights as cool as
the proverbial cucumber, handling the
kegs as though they were pin cushions
instead of iron. Someone remarked
"Ain't they heavy. Burt?" but the
