Bates and Colby Will Fight 1t Out For Runner Up Today
Hebron Getting
Ready for Bates
Game SATURDAY.
Especial to the Kennebec

(Speclal to the kennebec JournaD
Hebron, Nov. 10.-The victorious
and elated Hebron Club is cautiously
preparing for the Bates frosh battle
to be staged at Lewiston, Saturday.
Coach Dwyer is giving the Bates
game the same careful consideration
that he would any major contest
and the Big Green team, although
a big favorite to capture the game,
is not over-confident and expects to
put in hard afternoon or morning,
as the case may be, in wiping out
the Scoreless tie which marred the
Hebron schedule last year on the
Bates date. Bates does not seem to
have such powerful club on paper,
but have the reputation of securing
the favor of Dame Fortune quite
consistently, SO may spring sur.
prise, and whale the team from the
Oxford Hills.
Coach Dwyer rested the team
Monday, but put his charges through
a signal drill and forward pass de-
Tense practice Tuesday afternoon.
Bates may copy their varsity's trait,
and attempt to smother the Hebron
ties under a shower of aerials. The
Hebron outfit will be at it's peak
Saturday. and with a good field will
probably uncover the attack that
should have humbled Exeter by n
much larger score. Coach Dryers
teams faced two Bowdoin outfits.
II. G. l., Kent's Hill, and the Colby
frosh on wet, muddy fields, and were
at an obvious disadvantage as the
fast Hebron backs would be much
more effective with firm footing be-
meath them. Exeter met them on a
dry field, and it was Hebron's mis-
fortune to have it's star quarter,
jeremiah, go up. 1t was the first
time in two years that the f1ashy
Hebron field general has had an off,
day, and his day found Abbott, sub
stitute quarter. below in rank. Poor
handling of punts, and recovery of
ball by the Exeter ends, saved the
New Hampshire outfit from receiv-
ing much worse beating. The
team is not played out, however,
and with jeremiah back in his old
form, a fine exhibition of football
will be handed the fans at Lewis
ton Saturday.
Hebron Seconds Meeting Strong
Berlin High Team
Following the example set by the
varsity, the Hebron second team has
humbled their opponents every Sat-
urday. and will tackle the powerful
Berlin High club at Berlin Satur-
day. Mexico High, Norway High.
and Rumford High are the victories
to date, and a determined effort will
be made by the seconds to annext
another victory this Saturday. The
seconds have played against the var
sity, and the varsity subs all the
season, and never have had to make
any apologies for their showing.
Stuart Dwyer, son of Coach Dwy-
err, is the captain of the club, and
besides being quite an accomplished
athlete for a seventeen year old boy,
is the highest ranked student at the
Academy. The same eligibility rules
which govern the varsity outfit, are
in force on the second team, and the
standard of craftsmanship displayed
by the players is typically Hebron
and has been the cause of much
favorable comment from citizens OF
the cities where the second team has
played.
A regular team schedule is to be
| arranged for next fall, and will prob
, ably include the teams. played this
year. with Abbott School, Bridgton
Academy, Edward Little, and Wilton
Academy completing the card.
