Vile High school basketball teams
were victorious on the home surface
here tonight, the boys winning from
Winslow is to II and the girls beating
Skowhegan 20 to IS.
The game with Winslow was a
thriller, the exceptionally fast work
of the guards ON both sides being re-
sponsible for the low score. Donovan
was the outstanding player in the
game.
For the girls, Miss DeLisle was the
big noise for Waterville but she was
beaten out in the scoring by Miss

TIGERS TRAINING
SEASON TO
Be INTENSIFIED

Detroit, Jan. % (By A. P.)-The
doors Of the Tigers menagerie at
Augusta, Ga, will open two weeks
later this year than last but the
training season will be intensified to
balance the cut in time. This Is the
tentative announcement at the Office
of the Detroit club here, subject to
revision by Manager Ty Cobb, now
at his home in Augusta.
Most of the old Tigers will be back,
their number augmented by the
smallest group of Tiger Cubs in sew
eral years. Cobb. Heilman. Blue.
Bassler and Whitehill, southpaw ace,
whose skill under the American
League big top has Won them plaud-
it's outside their own bailiwick, again
strength this year, as they did last.
TIE Tiger cubs so far listed for tick
cts to Augusta are Carlyle. an out
fielder: Tavener, shortstop, and
Gene Boyle and William Moore, pit
cheers. Carlyle. purchased from the
Charlotte club of the South Atlantic
League has been heralded as a Sec
ond Ty Cobb" Boyle comes from
Toronto and Moore from Rochester
of the International League.
A new face in Tiger garb, yet enc
familiar in the American League, is
that of George Mcbride, formerly
shortstop and manager of the Wash
ington club who has been signed as
assistant manager. Much of Nc
Brides efforts will be devoted to the
strengthening of the weakness that
has existed for several seasons
around second base. O'Rourke. Burke
and probably Gehringer will be the
material with which he will have to
work. Familiar forms that will be
missing when the team gathers in
clude Derrill, veteran infielder who
was given his unconditional release
this winter; Bert Cole, southpaw
pitcher, who returns to the Pacific
coast after an extended but unsuc-
cessful stay in the majors: and Clyde
Manion. third string catcher, who
was sold to Toronto of the Inter-
national League.
Manager Cobb has maintained his
usual silence as to predictions for
the coming season. but there Is moth
ing now to indicate that the team
he will use in the pennant race will
differ materially from that Of last
year. A new pitcher or two. the pos
sibility of Rigney being displaced at
shortstop by Tavener, a change at
second base and q possible shift in
left field are the only changes now
seen as probable.
The training season. under present
arrangements will start late in Feb
ruary.

Especial to The Kennebec Journa)
Waterville. Jan. 23.-The Colby
freshmen ice outfit will tackle the
Notre Dame Icebirds of Waterville
today at the Colby rink at $50. The
Notre Dame Club has q fast, clever
aggregation and a thrilling game is
certain.
After this game the frosh team
will dissolve, as its three mainstays.
Drummond, Chase and Gould, will
join the varsity. The acquisition Of
these three men will add sufficient
strength to the team to make it a
serious contender for the States
championship. These men although
younger in years have had vastly
more experience than the first team
men whom they will displace, and
there is no doubt as to the capabili-
ties of all three at the offensive, n

MALONEY AFTER

PORTLAND BOUT

Especial to the Kenreoec Journal)
Portland, Jan. 23-Nothing short of
a knockout victory Will satisfy Jim
Maloney when he clashes with Bat
Ting McCreary at the Exposition
building next Wednesday night. The
South Boston battler, who aspires to
fill Jack Dempsey's shoes, wants
more than anything else to rock Bat
Ting McCreary to sleep with one Of
his terrific rights to the chin. At
least that's what his manager, John
ny McGrath. has told George Loring,
who is assisting the Veterans Of For
eign Wan with the show.
Since his advent as professional
Maloney has won the majority of his
bouts with kayo socks. While he Is
a good boxer he prefers the short
and sweet route to victory rather
than going the distance. He APP
preciates that McCreary is a fine de-
fensive type Of fighter and realizes
that it will be no soft task to land
the heavy one on the dusky chin. To
attain perfection he has resumed
training under the direction of Harry
Kelley, of Kelley and Hoyes' GYM
nasium and feels sure that when he
steps through the ropes at Portland
Wednesday night he'll be as fit as a
fiddle.
