SPORT
CHAT

1t seems too bad that such towns
as Waterville. Augusta, Skowhcgan
and others who boast fine bowlers
should be frozen out of the State
league while Portland has three teams
on the lanes. OF course the argument
of distance is good one but why not
form two leagues?
Bowlers, up country should get to-
gether and form little loop all their
own and make arrangements to bowl
/ a post-season series with the winners
of the league down this way for the
championship. Augusta and Water
| Vile have teams that are capable of
, teaming up with any of the teams in
the present league. while Skowhegan
could also put on strong five led by
Leon Smiley.-Lewiston Sun.
A bowling league, Including Water
Vile, Skowhegan, Gardiner and Angus
! ia as suggested by the Lewiston Sun,
is very practical and the distance be-
tween the three cities and Skowhegan
/ is not too great to make it impossible
However, 1t is improbable that such
| league will be formed this winter. The
! City League in Augusta has IL teams
! and as result the home alleys at the
Y. NJ c. A. are busy almost every
! evening in the week. The Girls League
/ also has the alleys one night and it is
| probable that Augusta would not con-
/ slider an outside league.
! interest in the City League is great
| in Augusta and practically every bowl
| er is included on some team. Inter
city bowling, however, has its advan-
| tages and in the event that Waterville,
H. 1,-Y-
| up in such a circuit as proposed in
! the Sun, team from Augusta would
| probably go hand in hand with the
/ movement. With several players in
| the City Lea que boasting an average of
| over 95 and at least one or two with
an average of over the century mark
! In match play, Augusta would not lack
material for such club.
! The Calumet Club, which has bowIed
q lot of Independent matches in the
( past entered the city circuit this year
| and is busily engaged in filling its
| matches with this circuit. There has
| been no great amount of talk regard
| ing a bowling league between the
| Kennebec county cities in this section
| and its apr earanc cas- part of the
| bowling activities in Kennebec county
! this year is decidedly doubtful.
! Colby College has voted to stick TO
hockey for at least this year and prob
{ ably for several years to come There
/, is plenty of material, plenty of en-
thusiasm and plenty of longing for
! basketball at the Waterville institu-
f. ton, and there is plenty of room UP
around there to build big gymnasium.
but the gymnasium hasn't been built
! yet, hence the unfavorable decision re-
| garding the indoor game.
| There is not a place at the college
| large enough to hold enough people to
support basketball and so the decision
| of the athletic council is a wise one
| Maine has basketball team and has
| to go out of the State for all her col
| lege opponents. The hockey team at
Colby has Bowdoin and Bates to PLAY
and some fast amateur and semi-pro
outfits for opposition in Maine Hockey
is apparently firmly set on its feet at
Colby and will remain so until the new
gymnasium becomes a reality.

told by the health authorities, that was
to rid San Juan of the pest. That was
ten years ago., and a lot can be forgotten
in ten years.
But il the health authorities have for
gotten the mosquitoes the mosquitoes
have not forgotten US. They have not for
gotten us for a single moment. They are
eternally on the job. Neither by day nor
by night do they rest, orif some of them
do, they have a well regulated system,
aboard ship, SO many hours on and so
many off.
Mosquito control has been so thorough
Iy demonstrated in Panama and else
where that it is recognized as a simple
problem. EIimita pools and pockets of
standing water, cover possible breeding
places with petroleum, and the winged
pests vanish. Neglect these precautions
and they flourish.
So long as there are mosquitoes with
us there is but one conclusion to be
drawn. We are making no effort to get
