Waterville. July 14-Jack Coombs
and his Kennebunkport Stars raised
havoc with the Taconnet boys at
Seaverns Field this afternoon, easily
running up a score of II to ?. The
game had not been long in progress
ere it was generally conceded tht the
coastWise bunch was too ponderous a
proposition for the local team. This
does not necessarily imply lack of
skill on the part of Mansfield's outfit,
but rather signifies that there are
big things aud still bigger things in
this big old world.
