COburn Team to
Clash with Hebron
Next Saturday
Especial to Kennebec Journal)

Waterville, Jan. 25.-The Coburn
hockey team had its first practice since
week ago and this week the team will
meet the strong opposition of the He
bron puck chasers on Saturday after
noon in this city, and this will give
the local fans a chance to see the fast
est ice team that ever represented the
oxford Hill school.
The team was to practice with Col
by College team on the college rink
but this was not thought wise by
Coach Paganucci. as his boys are not
in the condition they are capable of
being. But the first and second teams
had hard and hot scrimmage on the
local rink and this gave the boys a
chance to get going after such a long
lay-off. Walter Brinn, the star center
ice man, is slowly getting in real shape
and within the next few days he should
be primed for a hard weeks work.
Much will be expected from Brinn as
he is capable of doing big things on
the ice, and with the rest of his team
mates on the hop they will give any
team battle. Mason and Pollard are
working with Brinn in the forward line
and from yesterdays work indications
are that these boys have hit their
stride and combination that will be
hard to stop. Sullivan another on the
forward line, is getting into condition
and he will be used considerably. The
defense men, NIarsters and Paganuccl,
are both of real ability and can hit
and stop anything their way. The
former tips the scales at zoo pounds
and is fast on skates Combined with
that, he carries the puck In great
style. The goal is being we'll taken
care of by Captain Williams and Bob
Violet, and both possess the ability
of stopping pucks from every angle of
the cage, and it is going to be a hard
thing to put the puck by these men.
Coach Paganucci will continue to
scrimmage his men to the utmost for
the coming contest and in all proba-
bility the coach will put his icebirds
against the Colby team for practice
session sometime in the middle of the
week.

Jock Hutchinson
Classed with Trick
Golfers at Present

Chicago, Jan. u. - (AP) - Al
though not classed as trick golfer
like Joe Kirkwood. there are few
stunts in the golf bag of Jock
Hutchinson, formerly British open
champion. The Chicago profession
al conjures his marvels at long dis
lance with a putter.
It was at the White Bear Yacht
Club, st. Paul, that 1.-The Hutch" as
he is Familiarity known, worked his
one club wizardry. Hutchinson re-
marked to some players that it was
the swing and timing that made for
distance, regardless Of the club. He
averred that he could outdrive the
ordinary player using his putter.

clubs, and I'll wager $40 that YOU
can't drive as far with that spindlins
putter as / do with a driver

The challenger put all the energy
or his $50 pounds into a straight
drive that took the ball 225 yards
before it stopped. 1t looked as
though the Scot would have to
squeeze out $40. but before reaching
Tor his wallet he took his putter and
drove. The ball went go yards and
when he of the proverbially thrift
race unclasped his pocketbook he

again the pact was sealed. The
scot dropped the ball, laid the back
