BASEBALL CAPTAIN The 1927 Baseball Season This season bids fair to be a very good one and it will be more interesting because a league has been formed. Mr. William F. Pollard, Principal of Arms Academy, was elected president and Mr. F. Earle Vllilliams, Principal of Sanderson Academy, was elected secretary - treasurer. The teams in the League are as follows: Arms Academy Charlemont High School Conway High School 1 . T .riizifilg Deerfield High School Sanderson Academy Williamsburg High School A schedule of games for the season has been drawn up and each team is to play ten games. The team having the highest per- centage of games won at the end of the season will receive a beautiful silver trophy offered by the Draper Maynard Company. Elgin Gould, John Hillman, Joseph Tognarelli, Harold Herzig, Russell and Donald Purrington are members of last year's team who will probably play this season. Several of last year's team were graduated, but the prospects are good for a successful season, for twenty-four or twenty-five candidates have already res- ponded to the first call.

.M A BASICIS,-Kill, 'l'l'IAM Fall Baseball For several years it has been the eustom to organize a baseball team during the autumn mouths. Nu important games are seheclulecl, hut several of interest, are usually played. This year three games were arraugefl with Cllll.l'l0Ill0Iltf High Seliuul. These games were played during the last few weeks of September aml the result was rather one-sirlefl, Altlmugli our team won all three, the playing was hy no means per- feeti and it will require mueh ll2l,l'll praetiee to ohtain a team Capable of emupetiug with those of the surruuntliugr sehools. The seleetimi of players for the team ol' the next season is the main Illll'I30Sl' ul' fall hasehall. It also gives the boys a ehauee to praetiee, and stimulates their interest in the gzuue. There is always too short a time iu the spring to form the lN'Sf1lJOSSll?ll'li'tl.lll, hut with fall praetiee this is possible. Swine of the buys who played this fall were Harolrl Herzig, lloualtl PlIl'l'lllgLlUIl, Elgin floultl, .lolm Hillman, Parker Shaw, Russell Purriuggtmi, llaviml Lusty, NValter Phillips, Ernest- Kinsman, A. hlartiu, :mtl Wiutlirop Brown. These boys all tlitl their hestf aml their efforts are appreeiatetl hy the whole sehool. Sinee there are so many prmmisiug players in the entering elass, it seems pru- hahle that the 1927 lmasehall season will he uuusually sueeessful. ll' eaeh memher ul' the sehool gives his or her luyal support, we will have a team ut' whieh Arms may he justly proud.
