GUESTS, WILLIAMS
FIELD TOMORROW

Cony High, school, unkind con.
queror of Morse, Brewer. Waterville
and Lewiston is entertaining Jordan
High of the Spindle City at Will
liams Field in return engagement
Saturday afternoon. The visitors
coached by Pat French. were rudely
dumped from the win column last
Wednesday by the Red and White
and their strongest desire Saturday
will be to submerge the locals under
ton hurting ace, was nicked for four
solid blows which spelled his down
fall Wednesday and it is probable
that Giguere, sensational freshman
slab artist at the Lewiston school
will get the assignment for tomor-
row.
In the event that Lewiston starts
Giguere. the game will in all prob
ability be hurting duel between two
freshmen, as Coach Pierce Is consid-
ering starting Paquette, whose work
on the mound this season has been
fiawless. Cony has won five straight
games and the infield is going better
with every game but If there is the
least bit of overconfidence in the
Cony camp Saturday, Pat French has
just the club that will end the win
ming streak with a vengeance.
Lewiston's ball club is. man for
man, practically as good as Cony's
but the members OF the Jordan High
outfit went to sleep Wednesday at
ternoon and didn't wake up until the
game was on ice for the visitors. The
invaders hit well, field well and know
the game but mental relapse cost
them the decision in the first game.
The same old gang which has an
nexed five straight wins for the
locals will appear tomorrow after
noon. Bradstreet, first sacker has
been going strong this season and
has shown a very natural ability to
drive them to the fence. Captain
Overlook, Nickless and Stiles com
plete the infield while the outfelders'
positions are more or less OF a toss
up until the last minute.
Squanto Wilson will call the balls
and strikes and the game should go
along smoothly. The game will be
started promptly at 3 o'clock.

SPORT
CHAT

Local fans who attend the Cony-
Lewiston game at Williams field
Saturday will get their first glance
at the Cony freshman twirler. Par
quette, whose twitling this year has
been very satisfactory. Parquette
graduated from a regular berth on
the William school team to a berth
on the high school and with this year
for seasoning should be an outstand-
ing performer next season.
Lewiston's showing in the New
England League thus far this season
has been very gratifying to Maine
fans this year. Augusta fans are
watching the work of the Spindle
City team with interest, with Clan
cy, French, Kirschtein and Don
Brennan, all of whom have shown
their wares in the Capital City, doing
their stuff for the Lewiston Club.
Bowdoin Is entered in the New
England intercollegiate meet at Bos-
ton today. After her splendid show
ing at the Maine meet last week the
general belief is that the Black and
White will also cop today's meet,

Harrington Thursday afternoon by a
score of 11-9. The Smith battery
featured the game, Allison pitching a

conclusively hat there is absolutely
no danger to game birds of this
group by the S of strychnine poi
soned grain which has been used for
rodent control in such large guam
titles in the state during the past few
years.
In addition to the tests on strych-
nine, the California experiments COW
cred the use of phosphorus. arsenci
and thallium phosphate, a new poison
product. 1t was found that 25 kern
els of oats contain 20 grain of phos-
phorus killed a quail in one and one
half hours, and that ten grains of
wheat containing only .02 grain Of
phosphorus killed a bird in five and
one-quarter hours. Arsenic was a
little less toxic than phosphorus, as
was the thallium, but both were very
poisonous.
These experiments on different
game birds show that the fears of
many regarding the destruction of
bird life are groundless. They also
shows that strychnine is the only safe
poison to use on rodent control OPP
erations where it is necessary to de-
crease the number of crop destroy
ing pests.
