THE TATTLER 25 BASEBALL In 1925 a League was formed among the high schools of Franklin County. This league was composed of the following high schools: Phillips, Strong, Farmington, and Rangeley. The schedule of games for the season were: Rangeley Rangeley Phillips at Phillips, May 2. 1925 Strong at Rangeley, May 9, 1925 Rangeley Farmington at Rangeley, May 20, 1925 Rangeley Phillips at Rangeley, May 23, 1925 Rangeley Strong all Strong, May 30, 1925 Rangeley Farmington at Farmington, Julie 7, 1925 The first game with Phillips came before much practice could be had. Our team was very weak at the bat and could not bring in the men who got on bases, The score was 6-5 in favor of Phillips. The game with Strong was a bad defeat for Rangeley. The effect of early practice was shown. by the playing of the Strong team. The score was 10-1 in favor of Strong. All the time, however, our batting l1ad been improving and when we played Farm- ington we won our Iirst victory. Farming- ton, 3, Rangeley, 8. In the first three innings of the return game with Phillips we scored eleven runs. No more runs were added during the rest of the game. The final score was Phillips 2, Rangeley 11. The return game with Strong at Strong was the best played ot the series. Neither side scored during the first three innings. A rally by Rangeley in the fourth put four men across the plate before Strong could break it. The next scoring was done by Strong in the 7th. when they got three runs making the score 4-3 in favor of Rangeley. Another run by Strong in the Sth. tied the score 4-4. Rangeley failed to score in the Sith. inning. Strong had a man on 2nd, and 3rd, and a hit over the infield brought them both in, winning the game for Strong by the score of 6-4. The last game of the series was played at Farmington. At the end of thei fifth inning the' teams were tied. Two men were walk- ed in the sixth and three runs were scored. Rangeley won 6-3. This year Kingiield has been admitted to the League. This will make a total of eight games to he played by each high school. The Franklin Journal is offering a cup to the winning team and the games will hold a great deal of interest for the townspeople. lfyi BASKETBALL CLASS GAMES The class teams had time for very little practice together before the, first game was played, but t11e excitement of the spectators caused them to do their best. The Seniors defeated the Sophomores 42- 233 the Juniors defeated the Freshmen 34-20. The second set of games: The Freshmen defeated the Seniors 12-83 The Juniors de- feated the Sophomores 58-16. The third set of games was the best play- ed and fastest of the three. The Seniors de- feated the Juniors 24-173 the Sophomores defeated the Freshmen 20-19. This left both the Seniors and Juniors with two games to their credit. In the :following game the Seniors were defeated by the Jun- ors 26-25. The Seniors kept the lead until the last quarter when the Juniors got four baskets to the Seniors two. This gave the series to the Juniors. The 1925-26 basketball season promised to be well filled and successful, but three games with outside teams were cancelled because of the cost of transporting the teams. This left us with only two games with Stratton, the Class Games and two games with the town team. The first game was played at Rangeley, November 20, with Stratton High School. The line up was: I R. Raymond, L. F. V. Tibbetts, R. F. G. Ross, C. ' R. Johnson, L. G. M. Robbins, R. G. A. Loomis, Sub. I
