new CALUMETS
FACING Severe
TEST HERE today
AUGUSTA
WAITE RVILLE

The official opening Of the In
city will take place at. Williams field
at o'clock this afternoon when the
| Calumet Club, with strong lineup,
will face Waterville. This will be
local team while the Waterville club
lost a hard game to Togus last Sun
day at Togus.
The Augusta team has secured the
best talent in this section to play
this afternoon and the game should
be a hummer. Waterville, with Tay-
lor, Trainor and Brown has a strong
pitching stiff but will be up against
some capable sluggers with Mas
ciadri, Giroux and Beaudoin, all good
hitters against any kind of pitching.
/ These players follow each other in
the batting order and should pro-
duCe some runs for the locals.
This game will be more or less of
an experiment. There was no semi
pro team in the city last year ana
the Calumet Club is anxious to find
out whether or not the fans want it.
If the attendance at the game this
afternoon wants it, better players
will be secured and a formidable
outfit organized. The team this af-
ternoon however is capable of put
ting up a good game and a fast con-
test should result.
Masciadri, McGouldrick, Black
stone and Brick Reed, who will play
this afternoon were all former mem
bers of the Maine State League so
the game should be an interesting
one to watch. Guy Overlook will

YALE FRESHMAN
CREW TO Be MADE
FROM SUBSTITUTES

Gales Ferry, Conn, June 1872
A reconstructed Yale freshman crew
was in the making today and coaches
held hope that Blue eight might
yet set the pace for Harvard when
yearlings shall meet on the Thames
next week.
Chances for victory that had been
believed blasted, when six oarsmen
Were disqualified for violation of the
honor system in the final eXamina-
tons last week were revived last
night as 10 former members of the
squar were hastily summoned as re-
placements.
Those called were picked for the
proximity of their homes to New
Haven. All We're expected to report
today and training will be resumed
where 1t was halted by the disquali-
flcations.
The Yale athletic authorities dur
ing conference with Harvard last
night decided to get together another
crew. When the disqualification of
the men was made public on June
16, it was announced that Yale pre-
ferred to forfeit the race to Harvard
and that the Harvard freshman eight
would probably compete with the
junior varsity. The effort to reas-
semble Blue crew was decided upon
to avoid cancellation of the contest,
the opening event of the regatta.
At Red Top the Crimson camp has
been somewhat upset over the fact
that it's first year crew was not to
meet "the best yeafling crew Yale
could put out" The men there be-
lieve that the freshman eight this
year is the best Harvard has had for
a number of years, and they are GER

finish line, if the race had been row.

crew at the sweeps. Yale has taken

Old Grad Pleads for Race

New Haven, Conn, June 1S.-(P-
A plea that Yale put in substitutes
and row the race like men,,8 in the
Freshman event of the Yale Harvard
regatta, June 25, has been made by
an old graduate. The comment on
the cancellation of the race, as first
proposed by Yale, of Wilbur Parker,
star baseball player of the class OF
1880, of Columbus, Ohio, contained in
a telegram last night to the Jour-
nal Courier, follows:
Il vehemently protest the cancella-
ton of the Freshman race. Judgment
is unbound in Furnishing the inno-
cent with the guilty. The Yale
faculty will stand before the public
confessedly incapable of maintain
in gdiscipline. 1t would be better to
make the guilty row and to punish
them afterwards; if not fire the
crooks, put in substitutes and tow
the race man for man. Don't stig-
Matte Yale men as welchers."
