HARRY SEARS HAS
CLASSY CARD FOR
FRIDAYS SHOW

"a real old fashioned scrap" IS
the way that Harry Sears character
ICES his show which will be staged
at City hall on Friday evening,
March 9th. Harry has signed up
blue Nose" Parent of Lewiston with
Young Brown, the southpaw flash
from Biddeford. Augusta fans we'll
remember Browns bout here when
he stopped X. o. Mayo on very short
notice, Mayo kissing the canvas to
the music of ten. Brown is the
flashiest thing that has displayed his
wares here for many, many moons.
Brown also boxed Gauvin in a whale
of a bout here and since that time
he has been travelling around, hit
TIM Texas and some of the other
Western states. He has returned
home in fine shape and is raring to
go. Blue Nose" Parent is just the
type for him to box. The welter-
weight champion of Maine is going
like a house afire. He has been mix
ing in main bouts in Canada and
after the show in Augusta is going
back to our northern neighbors. The
fans are very fortunate in having a
chance to see him in action at this
time. for he cancelled bout in
Canada that he might appear IN
Harry's show.
The semi-fina1 is class: Larry
Walsh of Dexter, who always pleases,
and Young Drew of Biddeford.

Undefeated Teams
Clash Saturday in

Especial to the kennebec JournaD
Waterville. Me-, Feb. 26.-The
most important game played thus
far in the Colby Interfraternity Bas-
ket Ball League will occur on Sat-
urday evening, when Alpha Tau
Omega, runners up for the cham
pionship last winter, meets the Delta
Epsilon team. Neither team has
lost a game this season and with
over half of the games played the
contest between the two teams will
undoubtedly definitely eliminate one
from the race. Phi Delta Theta is
the only other team which is in a
position to win the title and is the
third member of the triple tie which
exists between these three teams,
none of which has lost a game dur
ing the series. Keith will be the
most dangerous man for the Delta
Epsilon team, while O'Donnell and
Nickerson should shine for the

Hebron Hockey
Team Meets COburn
In Saturday Game

Especial to the kennebec JournaD
Hebron, Me-, Feb. 26.-The He
bron Academy hockey team enter
tains Coburn's seXtet in the Hebron
Arena, Saturday afternoon. He
brons second team lost to Coburn
at Waterville early in the season.
However, tomorrow's game will be
a first team tryout with the Hebron
regulars ready to wipe out the sec
ond teams 20 defeat.
Two members of the team will be
missing from the lineup. Frank
NaZro of Arlington, Mass, Is con-
fined to his home on account OF a
bad side. He has not been in con-
dition for three weeks, and the ply
sicians decided that it would be best
for him to go home. "Jigger' kins-
ley, another star who halls from
Stoneham, Mass, has also been sent
home on account of illness. Inc
absence of these two regulars VIII
weaken Hebron's seXtet considerably,
but nevertheless the boys feel con-
ftdent of a victory. MacFayden mas
been moved up to the forward line,
to pair up with Capt. jeremiah, and
"Tunney" Mahoney. Maboney, VINO
at present leads the team in scoring
has done some spectacular work tar
Hebron this year. This is his first
year at the Academy, but he has two
more years at the Oxford Hills
school before he will be ready to
enter Dartmouth. Jeremiah Is play
ing his usual flashy game at center
ice. and he will show Brinn, CO.
burns star, what 1t is to play against
a good center. Jeremiah has devel-
oped the poke cheek to perfection,
which has made the going rough Tor
all his opponents this season.
''Pitter" Fraser and Hugo Nelson
are the likely defense men to start
the game. sgd Farrell, who mas
been turning away goals against he
bron all season, will be in the cage.
Farrell had three years OF experience
at Belmont before coming to He
bron. which stood him In gooo
stead to beat out his many oppo-
nents for the position.
Hebron is fortunate In having a
remarkably strong second FORWARD
line for relieving. This trio consists
of Champion. Thayer. and Harring-
ton. They have worked well TO-
rether all season, and should they
face Coburn, our rivals will find lit
tie difference between the two COM
binations. Pratt and Dwyer may see
the game on the defense, and II an
other goal tender Is needed Ed
O'Connor will be remembered Tor
the splendid showing he MADE
against Coburn earlier in the season
ut Waterville.
Coach Chase has kept the boys on
odre all the week, and Hebronites
should see the team doing its best
work of the season.

But the amazing increase in

not more remarkable than those
which come with the development
Of compound interest
The thought Of the purchase Of
Manhattan Island, the most valu-
able piece Of land in the world to-
day. for the sum Of $24 appeals
strongly to the imagination, while
there seems little or no romance in
the patient upbuilding which comes
with the reinvestment Of funds.
Yet the actual figures are amazing.
The present wealth Of the United
States is about 100000. 900, 900
according to the latest official re-
ports. This entire sum could have
grown in three hundred years, from
an original investment of $500
with interest compounded semi
annually at 6 per cent
II $1,000 were set aside today at
6 per cent compounded semi.
annually It would amount to
$369,360 in one hundred years.
These figures are beyond the
grasp Of the imagination. There
is lesson contained in them. how.
ever. which can be grasped by all
OF US. And that is that II we save
our money and let It grow along
perfectly natural and normal lines
1t will bring rewards beyond belief.

Lewiston, Me-, Feb. 26.-Forcing
the fighting all the way, and out
smarting the Westerner at nearly
every turn of affairs, George Bolduc,
New York, shaded Ruby Levine CT
Los Angeles in twin six before 1900
fans here tonight.
While fast in spots, the bout was
slow in others, but it was satisfac-
tory, and one of the greatest defen-
sive bouts here in years. Extra smart
boxing was exhibited by both boys
all the way.
Levine was bothered a good deal
by Bolduc's peculiar bobbing and
weaving, and couldn't sink many
solid blows. Bolduc was wild with
his heavy artillery, landing many
swings on Ruby's back and head.
1t was the meeting of former local
boys who have been boxing in for
eign rings for nearly two years. 1t
was one of the most polished per-
formances of junior lightweights here
in many years.
