For SATURDAYS Game

Brunswick, Me, Sept 22.-Captain
Frank harrington, halfback, and
Reggie Forsythe, end on the Bow
doin varsity were not out in toys
this afternoon but watched a long
hard scrimmage from the sidelines.
Coach Gates has been working these
two players rather easy for severa
days and this afternoon kept them
off the field entirely as he did not
wish to run any chances Of their
being crippled for the game with
Boston University, with which Bow
dom will open the season on Whit
tier Field Saturday. Dick Thayer.
the Marblehead boy who was such a
fash on the hockey team last sea
son. filled in Farrington's position,
while Otis Kendall, the lanky Angus
ia lad, who not content with being
captain of the track is after football
honors, occupied the vacant position
on the end. Both OF these players
look good and will undoubtedly be
given their baptism on the varsity
in Saturdays game.

signals today and looks good for
Saturdays contest. Walter Morrill,.
fullback, and Bob Olmstead, at half,
carried the ball in the scrimmage
against the scrubs and scored the

CLINTON ATHLETE
WILL LEND STRENGTH
TO CObURN OUTFITS

Waterville, Sept. 22.-Coburn Classi-
cal Institute Is very fortunate getting
athletes from different states to finish
their high school work and prepare for
college. Among the many that have
chosen Coburn is Charles Ma jor, one
of the greatest high jumpers ever
turned out OF Dewitt Clinton High
school OF New York, rated as the big
gest high school In the world. Major
graduated last term. but in his stead
we have another Clinton athlete. picked
as the greatest athlete of Dewitt Clin-
ton for the years 1925 and 1926. He is
also known as being the runner-up to
the greatest scholastic athlete of New
York, picked by the New York Tele-
gram. leading scholastic new paper.
His name is George Wolf. George
Wolf, or Red" as he is known, is a
versatile athlete. He has won his let
ter in five major sports in New York.
This is a very rare thing. Very sell
dom does this happen.
Reds best sport is basketball. Wolf
has the honor of being picked for the
New York all-scholastic teams in 1925
and 1926 as a guard Clinton won the
championship of New York those years
and Red had much to do in the VIC
tories.
Wolf also ran the mile for Clinton
and was picked as number two man on
the New York all-scholastic team for
that distance. He also high jumps and
broad jumps. In the high jump he
does FIVE feet seven inches and in the
broad jump close to 20 feet. Wolf
also ran cross-country and was the
outstanding star for the school. Soccer
is another sport he INDUCES in. To
our sorrow we have no such team, in
which no doubt he would display some
of his prowess on the field. Baseball
was also one of the sports he played
for his school. He caught and played
the out6eld. Wolf is now trying out
for the football team and is making
creditable showing, although he never
played before.

facturer, "they are everywhere.
They must be growing from tele-
phone and telegraph poles as well
as every apple tree"
Mr.. Derickson commented on the
fact that according to United
States statistics from the Depart
ment of Agriculture the crop OF
apples in America this year is g.
100000 bushels in excess of last
year The government statement
continues by saying that it would
require every man, woman ana
child in the country to eat three
apples every day in order to con-
sumo this crop.
Delaware apple growers are hop-
ing that their shipments abroad Will
prove attractive enough so that du-
plicate orders may make it worth
while. One of the things that seems
favorable to the American apple
grower in shipping abroad is that
in England the people like a little
apple. Apples there are sold by the
mound. Consequently they want an
apple about from 2 to inches IN
diameter.
In America it is just to the con-
trary, Here the folks want big
sized apples because they buy them
nv the apple.
