BASEBALL TOUR
TO THE ORIENT

Jess Woods, now in San Francisco,
received word from Japan recently to
the effect that Keio University was pre-
pared to arrange games with an all
star club in case he decided to take
one through the Orient this fall. This
was good news for Woods, who has
been in doubt as how such a trip
would be received by the Japanese.
Woods was afraid that Japanese
might refuse TO play baseball with US.
There are great many students at
Keio University, and any games that
are played there are sure to be well
patroniZed.

DROPS
TO THE POLICE
(From Mondays Advertiser)

(From Mondays Advertiser.)
Police Officer A. K. Nawahi picked
up an unconscious Chinaman near Pa
lama Junction early yesterday morn
ing, the man being found in the ditch
bleeding freely from cash in the
forehead. The officer called the am
bulance and had the man taken to the
Queens Hospital, where he gave his
name as Ii Chea.
His explanation of his condition
showed that he had been held up
by footpad. He explained that
he was walking along the sidewalk,
minding his, own business, when sud-
denly he was attacked by an unknown
man, supposed to be Porto Rican, and
thrown into the ditch, the fall split
ting his forehead. The footpad, dur
ing the scuffle which preceded the fall,
demanded whatever money he had, but
ran away after the Chinaman had yell
ed for the police and called upon
everyone within earshot to 'haul il"
before he was knocked out.
To the police yesterday morning he
described the Porto Rican who had as
saulted him and afterward identified
Francisco Cairo as the man, picking
him out from a bunch of Porto Ricans
in tenement behind Joe Clark 8 old
joint. Cairo was put under arrest and
is now being held. He is an oldtime
Sailbird and has been mixed up in sim
liar affairs before.

LEFT THE CROOK TO
SEE HIS LADY LOVE

The case of Lieut.. Morgan was not
the only one of a romantic nature on
the Crook, for another, of a humber
aspect, came to light Saturday in the
person of a private Of the 23rd Infan-
try, who desired that his name be
withheld for obvious reasons.
This was the regiment that came
here on the Buford recently en- route
to the Philippines. However, a few
minutes after the transport had cast
loose from the San Francisco dock a
certain company sergeant discovered
that one "Brown for he might as
well be called that here-was missing.
A search of the quarters of the COM
pany, together with few hurried
questions asked, developed the fact
that "Brown" had been seen on the
ship within a few moments prior to
her departure, and as he was not to be
found, the conclusion was reached that
he had at the last minute taken French
leave.
" And this surmise was correct, except
that the leave was only of a tempo
rary nature, and was taken deliberate
1y with a definite purpose, and not
while under the influence of anything
more potent than Loves spell.
Brown" had learned just before
his arrival in the City of the Golden
Gate that his girl, "the" one, had ar
rived there few days ahead of him,
and as soon as his regiment pulled in
from New York he fastened to his
captain with a request for at least
few hours shore leave before sailing,
giving the reason therefor. TheU offi-
Ger, however, did not see matters in
that light, and denied the request
pointblank
Brown said nothing at the time,
but having made up his mind that he
was not going to do three years in
Manila without final visit, made his
way to the rear of the ship about half
an hour before she was reaf y to cast
off, and at time when all lands were
forward in the vicinity 81 the gang
plank, and adjuring fri dly-lOoking
dock hand to shove plaIlk aboard the
ship, which the latter coasented to do
on being shown a couple of pieces of
silver, the young Lothario was away
and off that dock before anyone had
noticed his absence.
He reported himself to the military
at the Preside a half hour
after the transport had departed, in
order, as he expressed it, to "save his
face" and CHANGING to encounter a
goed- lieutenant, he was prac-
tieally given his own time until the
Crook sailed to be with his girl.
81 don't know exactly what they II
do to me when 1 get to the islands,"
said he referring to the matter yester-
day, "but as I have been in the SER
vice for ten years and have a pretty |
good record, think the punishment
will not be very heavy. Anyway" and
MS face lighted up, sit was worth it."
