IVY DAY SURPRISE ON Bates

Especial to the Kennebec JournaD
Brunswick, Me-, May 29-Ben Hou-
ser, coach of the Bowdoin College
baseball team has many more gray
hairs tonight than he had before the
baseball classic with Bates which
was played on Whittier Field in the
presence of a typical Ivy Day crowd.
1t was hard to say whether the hun
dreds of pretty girls in their fetch
ing costumes inspired or embar-
raised the players but at any rate
the team would for a time play like
a gang of Apache Indians and then
would slump and be stricken with a
stage fright worse than school
girl reciting her graduating essay.
Bowdoin won the game 6 to through
the ability of Nichols. Blake and
Lord to swat the ball when hits
meant runs. The first two innings
passed without either side scoring.
The third opened badly for Bowdoin.
Dimlick, the weakest hitter on the
Bates team, was hit by pitched
ball and given his base. L. Small
singled and Jordan took first ON an
error by MCGOWAN who made a bad
throw in fielding the ball; Ray
hunted the ball which was fielded by
Gray who threw home catching DIM
lick at the plate. Sibley dropped
Blake's throw and SO failed to carry
through double play, Small scoring
on the error. bakers fly was caught
by Fish but Jordan scored while
Ray came home on c.. Smalls dou-
BILE. Small was caught trying to
steal third. With a three run lead
to overcome Lord and Gray opened
for Bowdoin with singles and both
scored on Nichols double. Fish
struck out. Harrington drew pass.
stole second and then the Bates in
field went to pieces and both Mich
OILS and Harrington scored. Blake
and Sibley were out on flies. The in
ming ended with Bowdoin one run in
the lead. 1t was in the sixth inning
that Bowdoin had it's worst case of
stage fright. Lord dropped bakers
grounder and he was safe and stole
second. c. Small was out at first.
Mennelly popped a fly over Gray's
head and beat the ball to first. Moul-
ton hunted but Gray whipped the
ball to first and the batter was out.
Then something happened. Baker
started home but thought better Of
it and went back to third only to
find Mennelly on the bag. The two
Bates runners neld conference
while Sibley slowly walked across
the diamond with the ball in his
hand. Then the Bates runners star
ted, Baker for home and Nennelly
for second. After a time the ball
was thrown to third but no runner

Mass, next week, five from the Pa
cific coast, 30 from the middle west, 60

final days play were players favored
by fair golfng weather. A driving
rainstorm soaked contestants and
spectators during the remainder of the
play.
Macdonald Smith Of Lakeview, one
of the few players fortunate enough to
go through both 1S-hole rounds under
ideal conditions, finished three strokes
ahead of the field by duplicating today
his record opening card of 20 for
total 36-hole score of 140.
Second to Smith and leading the
second section, which played the entire
round in the downpour, stood Bobby
Jones, Georgia amateur, with l45.

few minutes, finished third in 147 tie
with William Kline of Garden City and

LaChance. Thompson pitched two
innings, Simmons tossed them up Tor
