his team victory.
The margin of difference was so

Layman and Clowry proved the
scoring aces for the winners with
five and -Four baskets respectively.
Jack Netf was covered like a tent
and could not get loose. Sonners and
Sam Neff made the Pearl Whites
teamwork look better by playing a
strong defensive game and not run

Speaking of Gene Sarazen. the
fact to mind that the little
golfer has been shorn of titles as
completely as Joie Ray was sheared
of his worlds records by Paavo Muir
mi. His last title went when he was
beaten in the professional golfers
tourney at French Lick last sum
mer.
1t now seems uncertain Just what
he will do this season. He seems &c
be In process OF working over his
game. doing a lot OF practice and get
ting back to his WI natural, II I'M
orthodox, style. which carried him so
high.
Genes poor showing in 1928 IS
thought TO have been due to his neg
leot Of practice and to his willing
ness to experiment with, grips.
stances and swings OF other great
players. instead Of sticking to his
own peculiar style. which. while a
hit informal. served to dominate the
golf world.
No athlete ever came up so swiftly
and went down so suddenly as Sara
zen. He sprang into fame In the win
ter OF 1920.21 and in 1898 he was hit
ting the downward grade. 1t remains
to be seen what success Sarazen has
in ~re.ascending the heights.

tiles as L the precise terms Of the

corning salaries of football coaches.
From Cambridge comes word that a
limit OF $4,000. the maximum salary
paid to a professor, has been set for
football coaches.
DR.. Charles w. Kennedy. of
Princeton, states that no definite
stipulation has been made concern
ing coaches salaries. but that a limit
has been placed upon the total ath-
letic budget. Salaries may be placed
at whatever figure So that the bud

anyone becomes excited, 1t will have
to be made clear that the total bud

Morning Service at the Old South

The morning service at the Old
South, in spite of the perfect wealth
er which tempted to out-of- door eX-
petitions and in spite Of the special
service at a neighboring church and
in Augusta, was unusually well at
tended. The sermon was timely and
interesting. The text was taken
from jeremiah 1884, And as for
the prophet and the priest and the
people that shall say, Thy burden of
the Lord, / will even punish that
man and his house" The mission
that Rev. Mr.. Bradford drew from
these words of a great prophet was
that one should put aside cheap pes
simism. In education of the true sort
he thought lay much of the hope of
our nation. In the school is the only
possibility of assimilation of the diff
ferent nationalities pouring into our
country. He gave the school and
the teacher Il high mission and high
praising the work already performed
by these agencies, showed that more
must be done. The music was eff
fective. There were two anthems,
one with a bass solo by w. Frank
Pierce the other with soprano solo
by Mrs. Nettie M. Johnson.

State Detective
Clears Up Breaks
Hazard Camps

State Detective Arthur G.. Robin
son has returned to Gardiner after
passing most fruitful few days in
the vicinity of Enfield, the location
of the r. p. Hazard camps. Detec-
tive Robinson went to Enfie cid to try
to clear up the robberies at the HaZ-
card camps, and he came home with
not only that case solved but with
three others, and has given to the
officials in Bangor a mass of infor-
nation that should lead to the clean
up of the entire district. In the
course of his labors Detective Robin
son had to scour nearly all of Penob-
scot county, but he was we'll repaid
in that he solved the mysteries that
has been puzzling that section for
months.
When Mr.. Robinson began to
make inquiries in the vicinity of the
Hazard camp, he found that two
Thebeau brothers had been hunting
in that vicinity, which information
led to his investigation of the men
as he suspected them of the breaks.
In company with Sheriff Farrar and
deputies of Bangor he went to Still
water in search of the men at the
home of another brother, James AL
brother named Leo came home. and
was taken into custody by the sher-
iii, and his men. Another brother of
the same name was also arrested, as
was Alden, the proprietor of the
house. The house was searched and
the loot found. Among the valuable
articles proven to be taken from the
Hazard camp. There were also tires.
inner tubes, bumpers and automo-
bile accessories of all kinds that had
been stolen from various garages in
that vicinity.
The officers trailed Melvin Thebeau
until he abandoned his car, and It is
thought that he has escaped into
Canada. The break at the Hazard
camp occurred last November, and
the ones at the garages several
months ago, so Detective Robinson
mad little in the. line of clues to work
upon when he went up to Enfield. He
gained considerable valuable infor-
nation by diplomatic questioning of
the various members of the Thebeau
family.
In this, Detective Robinson con-
tinues to add TO mis- long list of sue
success in this line of work.
