 Tn addition to attending the inter- national polo matches the prince witnessed the first defeat of Epinard the French thoroughbred, attended the races frequently during his stay, made several sightseeing tours Of New York city, experienced ride in the subway and was guest of honor at numerous dinners and dances He also made a short visit to Detroit, where he was the guest of Henry Ford, and to Chicago 10 make a tour of the stockyards.

WHEREAS, w. A. Kicker of Castine,
Penobscot and Castine. Hancock
County, Maine, have filed with the
State Highway Commission petitions
Of the following tenor:
1--WE, the undersigned citizens of the
towns of Castine, Orland and Penob-
scot, Hancock County, Maine, respect
fully request your Honorable Board to
appoint a time and place for viewing
the highway from Orland Hill along
the Docian Shore, through the towns
of Orland, Penobscot and Castine to
the foot of Main Street in the town Of
Castine, for the purpose of laying out
a State highway.
This road starts near the house of

scot River through the towns ofPenob-
scot and Castine, a distance of fifteen

BASKETBALL.
Ellsworth Should be Contender for
State Championship.

The basketball season Is here, and
players and Fans are beginning to
warm up. Already there is talk Of
forming a Hancock county league.
Bar Harbor, Southwest Harbor,
Northeast Harbor, Seal Harbor and
Bluehill all expect to put fast teams
on the floor this year. 1t Is up to the
Ellsworth fans to see that this town
has the best team possible.
One way the fans can do this is to
locate suitable employment here for
two stars of last years team-"Ted"
Donnell and George King, who are
now employed in adjoining. towns.
Rumor has it that Donnell, who Is
employed at Seal Harbor, will toss
baskets for the Seal Harbor Con
victs," while King, who is employed
at Bluehil, will do likewise for the
Bluehill A. C. These boys, who have
proved themselves loyal citizens of
Ellsworth during their stay here, are
also good workers, and just as faith
full to their employers as they are to
their managers on basketball floor.
The probable managers of the team
for this year, Bill Scott and Louie
Lepogiannis, would greatly appreci-
ate it if anyone can offer one or both
of these boys local employment. To
have them on the local team may
mean that Ellsworth will have the
honor of holding the State champion
ship-a fact which would make
every citizen of Ellsworth justly
proud.
Ellsworth had a whirlwiNd team
last year, easily taking the champion
ship of Hancock county before the
largest crowd ever to attend bas-
ketball game in this section-over
l12OO people Not only did the team
win the county championship, but
showed one of the best records of
any team in the State, winning FL
games out of 25 played. Among Its
victims was the Bangor Original Five
Aces, by far the best road team in
the State. The Five Aces took their
worst trimming for the entire season
from the Ellsworth boys, to the tune
of 40 to %.
! Andrew Luchini, a former high
school star, who last played for Els
worth in 1923, when he distin-
guished himself, will attempt to earn
berth on the team this year, and
if he works true to form, his chances
are favorable. Mahon, Austin, II
Harrington and J. Harrington, OF
last years regulars, are all employed
in this city and available for this
season. If Donnell and King are
able to line up with their old team
mates, this busy bunch will have a
nrettv good chance for the State
championship.
