THE BOUNCER 23 We were warned that the first game brought too much confidence to a team if they won it, and we guess it appl.ied to us, for we opened our sea- son on the home grounds on May 3, playing Lawrence High of Fairfield. They walloped us to the tune of 11-6. All around poor playing was the cause of our down-fall. Our nexf frame was with Skofwhegan at Skowhtgan on May 5. We were beaten by the score of 11-4 and all we can say is that we played a very poor game. Just have patience Fans, wait until they come up here. In our next game we redeemed ourselves by beating Waterville on our home grounds on May 8. The score was G-1. Madison played shut- out ball. Then camo what was supposed to be our hardest game, that with Oak Grove Seminary, at Madison on May 12 and we certainly gave them a big scare. If we had had any sort of' a break we would have been victorious. They beat us 4-3. lt was a great game and we szhculd be proud of our team. Good Will came to Madison for their return game with us on lVlay 15. Good Will has not ther team she used to have, as is shown by the score, which was 18-6 in our favor. Mad- ison's batting featured. These are all the games we have played up to this time and so far we have a percentage of .500, having won three and lost three. We appreciate the support that the townspeople are giving us and we know that the team wil-.l try its best to do credit to the school, as well as to the town. We expect a successful season and as it is not yet half over that is. plen- ty of time for everybody to show their spirit. We are having a great deal of dif- ficulty with our outer field on the baseball diamond this year, caused by the large amount of rubbish that has been dumped there. It is gradually covering all of our diamond back from the infield. All should realize the danger of this to players who play in either of the three fields, and we hope that there will be no more rubbish dumped there. The students have cleaned it out as well as pcmi- ble, so let every person see that it is kept clean. One of our games this season might have had a different ending if it had not been for this dump. rrmiiif . ' if ' 0 . I' A' A 'sth'-7,4 ,f .23 Q.

Our schedule had been completed and it is one of the best that this school has ever had. We were scheduled to play fifteen games hut the first two games had to be cancelled on account of rain. We procured the services of Mahlon Cavanaugh as coach, and a large num- ber of baseball candidates turned out 9 I3 '23 for the first practice. Inside of a week the first team had been picked and we were ready for action. Our Ilrst game was with Good Will on their grounds May 1, and the cli- mate certainly agreed with us, for we gave them a decisive beating by the score of 9-2 in a clean, fast game. If we could play all of our games as well as this one we should have a Hue record.

The Freshman Number contains some very good ad- ! -Zo vice for members of the entering class. THE E. L. H. S. ORACLE: Con- gressman Reed said, It is the spirit that makes the school, the city, and the nation. Work and make good. Students ol' M. H. S. let's put this advice into real practice. OAK LEAVES: 'The best is none too goodf Any man or any organi- zation choosing: this adage for a mot- to is hound to succeed. They will have hitched their wagon to a star and that star will be the highest and noblest, because it will be the best. Hitching one's wagon to a star means that however good or sucessful the present is, it is not good or successful enough: and that satisfaction will only be gained when the best has been attained. THE LAUREL: What would hapl pen if, now in these troublous times, the students were to strike? If now, the entire student body of the State of Maine were to strike and go marching' through the streets bear- ing posters to, this effect: 3 Hrs. per Day: Shorter Lessons: No Such Thing As Being' Sent To The Office: what a terrible thing it would be.
