1.-THE Ancient Rivalry of Cony and Gardiner Emuated Today
MAINE BEARS IN
LAST PRACTICE
FOR BOWDOIN GAME

The University Of Maine football
team winded up It's preparation for
the Maine game with short, snappy
signal drill on Williams Field, Fri
day afternoon. The Pale Blue squad
consisting Of ten OF the regular men
and the two nuarterbacks. Cassista
and Osgood, performed behind closed
gates although an interested crowd
watched proceedings from the street
The university team, while consider
ably lighter than their opponents this
afternoon, are fast and apparently
well drilled and full of the pep and
fight that wins football games.
The game this afternoon will find
the teams more evenly matched than
has been the case for several years
The Bowdoin team, heavy, fairly fast
and showing power with every move
ment, will have a slight advantage
providing that the Whittier Field is
as slippery as Williams Field, despite
the fact that Bill harrington, the
fleet Bowdoin back, will be somewhat
hampered on a wet field. Maine has
speed and deception and Bowdoin has
power and deception. The result
should be one of the greatest football
games in decade of great Bowdoin-
Maine football games.
A record crowd of supporters Of
both teams are planning to journey
down to Brunswick from this city
this afternoon. Bill Harrington, Bow
dom captain, is an Augusta boy and
Bowdoin is the favorite with the ma
jOrity of Augusta fans. Some play
ers of all Maine caliber will be per-
forming and breaks should go a long
way toward deciding the outcome.

FAVORED TO COP
INTERSCHOLASTICS

Waterville, Nov. 5.-Seven teams
of seven runners each will face the
starter tomorrow morning in the
Maine Interscholastic Cross country
run to be held over the three mile
course of Colby college. In this
group will be some of the best
schoolboy runners in the State.
Hebron ACADEMY is favored to win
the meet, as a result of their excellent
showing in the Harvard Interschol-
astics, which they won. Lee Acad-
envy will be a hard team for anyone
to beat and will probably furnish
Hebron with most of the competition
and they have a strong chance of
winning. Lee has won the Colby
meet for two successive years and
always presents q strong and well
balanced team. Edward Little High
of Auburn will also have a strong
aggregation on the field and may be
expected to furnish plenty of COM
petition. n. II. Fay High school of
Dexter, Canton High, Waterville
High, and Deering High of Portland
will furnish the rest of fast field.
Folsom of Hebron is expected to
lead the pack to the tape, and If the
course is not too slow because of
weather conditions, a new course rec
ord may be looked for. Chester
Taylor of Waterville High, the mid
get brother of the captain of the U.
of M. cross country team will prob
ably be well up in front. For all of
his small size, he is a very heady
runner

In the 1921 Wisconsin, Illinois game,
the Badgers scored three freak touch

downs in the whole game. After the
Illinois punt, which was blocked and

back who was attempting an end run,
and swung him off his feet, swapping
the ball out of his other arm directly
into the hands of a team-mate, who
raced seventy yards for a touch

SPORT
CHAT

The kent's Hill game was played
last Saturday with only two penal
ties, both for offside play. Quite a
record, considering the Importance of
the game and the intense rivalry be-
tween the schools.
This is the day most of the real
rivals settle the matter of supremacy
fors the season of 1926. Maine and
Bowdoin are playing at Brunswick
and the Brunswick school should
take Maine over, despite the fashy
attack of the university. Names
team is light and fast and Bowdoin's
team is big and also fast, which
would seem to give the Brunswick
ians the advantage in the matter.
Harvard and Princeton are begin
ming the Big Three classics in the
Harvard stadium this afternoon in
what should be a very even battle.
Princeton with Slagle in the lineup
should make an impressive showing
for the Tiger back can hurl passes
as well as run with the ball but in
the event that Princeton is forced to
confine her attacks to the line she
will be likely to fare rather roughly
against the hard charging Crimson
line.
Edward Little and Lewiston are
hooking up in return battle this
afternoon. Despite the fact that Au-
burn scored on Lewiston in the first
game, Lewiston should win without
q great amount of trouble.
Cony and Gardiner will be the
main attraction in the Kennebec
Valley. Cony should make a good
showing against the Orange and
Back and might even pull the game
out of the fire. The team plays well
on its own field and is due to win to-
cav. The game, however will be
close and the Shiny condition Of the

VariCoseV VeinsReduCed or Money Back, Says
 The Fair Drug Dept.
Simple Home Treatment That
 Is Giving Amazing Results

The world progresses. Today ail- ments that took weeks to cure can now be ended in a few days. If you have varicose veins or punches you can start today to bring them back to normal size, and if you are wise you will do so.
 Just get an original bottle of Moone's Emerald Oil at any dis pensing pharmacist and apply it night and morning to the enlarged veins. It is very powerful and pen etrating, and only little is requir- cd.
 After few days treatment the veins will begin to grow smaller and by regular use will soon reduce to normal.
 Moone's Emerald Oil is also marvellous healing agent. One appli- cation for instance stops the itching of eczema, and few applications cause the eruptions to dry up, scale off and completely disappear. It is equally as effective in barber's itch, salt rheum, redness and inflamma- tory skin trouble.
 People who want to reduce vari- cose veins, or get rid of eczema, ul- cers, or piles in few days should not hesitate to get bottle at once. It is so powerful that small bottle lasts a long time. Any pharmacy can supply you. The Fair Drug Dept. sells lots of it.
