president of the Dover-Foxcroft Ath-
letic Association and has taken the
active control of the association, with
his ability as an organizer Dover
FoXcroft is assured of a baseball team
up among the winners. Much en-
thuSiasm is being manifested among
the fans and it looks like a banner
year under the leadership of Col.
Mayo.
1t will be remembered that several
years ago the Dover Foxcroft had a
team that was the best ever to repre-
sent the twin towns. financed and
controlled by the late George E.
Mayo, a son of Col. Mayo, and it
seems quite natural to townspeople to
have the Mayo name attached to ath-
letics in Dover -Foxcroft. In 1923 Col.
and Mrs. E. ]. Mayo presented the
town with a grand stand in memory
of their late son, which is one of the
finest in this section of the state.
This grand stand is an imposing
looking structure facing the playing
field at the Fairview avenue grounds.
There will be an adjourned meet
ing of the directors of the Piscata-
quis Valley Baseball League at Cen
trail Cycle Club rooms in Dover Fox
croft Monday evening, June 81. At

the limelight for some time, that of
catching a brook trout which tipped
the scales at 2 pounds and II ounces.
This is not fish story as it was
verified by most reliable people out
side of the fisherman himself. The
brook where the trout was caught,
however, is a deep secret.

to hold the services at Ills A. NJ.
All are invited to attend. Further

There is no such thing as buying

His recital was interspersed with
discussions of prohibition, sharp jabs
at the Pepper and Mellon forces and a
number of aside witticisms which
brought frequent laughter from the
committee and spectators.
Discussion of the disclosures of the
campaign spread from the committee
room to both the Senate and House
with Secretary Mellon coming In for
Democratic attacks in both houses on
the basis of his statement yesterday
that such expenditures as were made
in Pennsylvania were essential under
the prevailing system.
After adverting to this statement,
Senator Caraway, Democrat, Arkan-
sas, reintroduced the celebrated reso-
luton for the seating of Truman H.
Newberry as Republican senator
from Michigan but condemning the eX-
penditure of s195, 900 on his behalf.
The senator explained that he had
erased the $4,000 and left a blank SO
that Senator Willis, Republican. Ohio,
author of the Newberry resolution, or
others on the Republican side, might
fill in the figure which they now re-
gard as hurtful to the dignity of the
Senate and the safety of American in
stitutions.

Defer Meeting of
Richard and Fight
Commission at n. Y.

New York, June l5.-(P)-The ex-
pected showdown in the tangled
heavyweight boxing situa ton failed to
materialize today when Tex Richard
postponed a scheduled conference with
the state athletic commission, but the
fistic fathers meanwhile strengthened
their opposition to the promoters plan
to shelve Harry Wills in favor of Gene
Tunney for title match with Jack
Dempsey in September.
The showdown now is fixed for next
Tuesday, June %, a date which coin
cides with expiration of the time limit
given Dempsey to sign for a Wills
match. Richard announced he would
be on hand at that time, and since he
holds Dempsey's contract, is expected
to make known his plans definitely.
Richard has made no secret of the
fact that he has planned all along to
match Dempsey with Tunney, but the
firm championing of Wills chance by
the commission, led by Chairman
James A. Farley, may cause a last
minute switch in the promoters ma
noeuvres.

10 TIGERS PARADE
TO WIN over RED S0X

Detroit, June 15.-(P)-Detroit used
- players, including five pitchers and
four pinch hitters, to win the flnal
game of the Boston series to 6. With
two down in the ninth Heilmann
tripled and Warner walked. Tavener's
triple to deep center scored both men
and Tavener himself came in with the
winning run when Fothergill dropped
a single back of first.
Gibson started the eighth inning for
the Tigers, but Cooper, left handler.
was sent in to pitch against Carlye,
a. right-handed batter pinch hitting
for CASTOR. Manager Lee Fohl coun-
tered this strategy by replacing Car
lyle, already at the plate, with Brache,
left-handed hitter, thus giving Car
lyle a place in the lineup. The score:

Berlenbach, who is fast breaking all
modern records for championship
fighting activity. will battle his fore
most rival, Jack Delaney, Of Bridge
port, Conn. In defense Of the worlds
light heavyweight title on July 10 at
Ebbetts Field. The date and place
for the match were fixed today by
Promoter Humbert Fugazy. after a
conference with the state athletic
commission. Originally the bout was
slated for June % but this date was
erased because of its proximity to
Berlenbachs bout with Young Strib-
ling last Friday.
Delaney and Berlenbach have
fought twice before. The former
knocked out Berlenbach in the
fourth round in 1924 in their first
bout. He came close to repeating
the trick last December at Madison
Square Garden but Berlenbach rail-
lied and pulled victory out of the
fire to save the title.

HERE TODAY FOR

This afternoon at $50. weather
permitting, Cony will play her last
game Of the season with Brewer High
school. Brewer lost to Cony on her
own grounds the first Of the season
but has established a good record
since then. The Brewer club has
several good twirlers but 1t is prob
able that Strang, a portsider, will get
the call today.
Practically the entire Cony ball
team graduates this year and this
will be the last chance to see the
team perform. Under the leadership
Of Coach Eddie Pierce the team has
run UP a long string Of victories with
but two defeats and the locals are
determined that today's game will
not be the third. Babe Lapidus, who
has been one Of the athletic main
stays Of the school during the past
year, will be in the box for Cony and
should pitch a great game in his last
appearance in the box for the Red
and White.
Catching the Babes slants will be
Warren Fletcher, who also will be
playing his last game for the high
school. Pete Bradstreet, Captain
Overlook, Howard Stiles, 'Yippie
Nickless. Ted Lishness and Dick
Bell will get their diplomas this
year and all these men will probably
play today. The team suffered but
one setback in its race for the Ken
nebec Valley league championship
and its only other defeat was at the
hands of Lewiston, a team which got
| an even break with Cony.
Brewer Is coached by Sam Cults
former quarterback of the ITpjyer

SPORT
CHAT

Augusta will not have a semi pro
club this year but they will have
something just as good. Several
players Of ability not connected with
any club for the summer will play
together as an organization and the
team will be supported by the Calu-
met club of Augusta. Although the
idea just started few days ago sew
eraI players have already announced
their willingness to wear the eolors
of the Calumet club this year.
Gene Masciadri, the Villanova
fence buster. whose home town is
Hallowell and who is a veteran in
the semi pro game in Maine, will do
his stuff for the Augusta club. Mas
ciadri has played for Pennington In
the eight team Maine State League q
few years ago and with Bangor In
the four team circuit. He is a clever
fielder and is rated as one Of the
most dangerous hitters in the State.
Paul McGouldrick, who threw his
wrong sided hooks at various times
for Bowdoin, Bar Harbor, Lisbon
Falls, Augusta Millionaires and other
teams too numerous to mention, will
be 'one Of the pitchers of the club.
Paul pitched until last year, when
arm trouble bothered him to a great
extent.
McGouldricks battery mate will
undoubtedly be Leo Beaudoin, who
will play with the club, either behind
the bat or on first base. Beaudoin is
| rated as one of the best catchers in
the State and is at present playing
Sunday baseball for the fast Togus
club.
Emile Giroux, who also plays with
Togus, will play on the Calumet
team. GirouX plays either third base
on the outfield and is a good fielder
and dangerous willow wielder. Pete
Bradstreet, who has made nama
for himself for Cony High school,
will play and he will undoubtedly be
on the first cushion, and Stiles, &
| teammate, will also be on the team.
The Calumet club is still on the
lookout for players and if the atten-
dance warrants it this lineup will be
greatly strengthened by several other
stars. The first game of the season
will be played Saturday afternoon
against the fast WaterviIIe team
which played at Togus last Sunday.
Trainor, Colby college ace, will pitch
for the Elm City aggregation.
