1t is To be hoped that the campaign
proposed in Martinsburg in the "Men
and Religion Forward Movement"
will mark here as 1t has in many other
men and boys ofthe community. Dur
ing the short time since the Inaugural
tion Of this movement campaigns Of
this character have been conducted in
a nun Der of cities and have resulted
in the organization of the christian
and moral forces in an earnest effort to
shield boys and young men from the
environments which lead to sinful and
degraded lives. A movement with such
a noble object in view cannot help but
have the support of every man or
woman who may have within him
any desire for better citizenship, a
better community to say nothing OF
sympathy for the boys and young men
who are exposed to the vile tempts-
tions Of modern society. During this
campaign there will he numbers OF
speeches by good men explaining the
plans and the object Of the movement
and there will follow permanent or
gauization not intended so much to
eyangelize the men and boys as to
make them better citizens and to guide
them IN the paths oftruth and decency
and to make them upright and useful
men, Tor their own good and the
general good of the community of
which they are members. They are
TO be lead TO realize that they have
friends among the good people and
that the hand of respectabiIity and
righteousness is not against them.
1t is to be hoped that the business
men, even though they may not be
men bers of the church, will take an
interest in and help this worthy move
ment.

Governor Glasscock has lost his po-
sition as titular head of the republican

1t is to be regretted that Senator La.
f gillette, the progressive candidate for
the republican nomination for Presi-
dent, has broken down his health by
overwork and will probably have to
retire fro II the race. He has done more
than any other man 10 public life to

BILL SCHWARTZ SURE
TO LEAD VOLS AGAIN

NASHVILLE, TENN, Aug. "a.
~ Although no contract has
been signed for next season
by Manager Bill Schwartz, it is
almost certain that the present
leader of the Volunteers will have
charge of the destinies of the team
again in 1918. The present season
has been far from successful in
every way, but the blame for this
can not be laid on the shoulders of
the manager He has at last man
aged to get together a first class
team and the fans are well salts
fed with the prospects for next
season, when, they are already pre-
dieting. Nashville should be right
up in the scrap for first place.
The chief cause of the failure of
the team to prove a winner is
thought to be the fact that 1t was
exiled for several weeks at the first
Of the season because of legal en-
tanglements which followed an at
tempt to play Sunday baseball. A
change of ownership was effected
before the chanCery court would al
low the team back on Tennessee
soil, and, following a recent re-

Great Pitcher and Hard Sugge Prescription for Pennan

F the Los Angeles followers of
Jose Rivers are prepared to
back their favorite to the limit
in the fight Labor day with Joe
Manoot there is little doubt that
New OTleans will stand a tap" on
the French boy. There isn't any
question about the Los Angeles
mans friends being able to get
their money down If they send it
to New Orleans. 1t is merely
matter of the Mexican being able
to put it over.
Never has a fighter had a towns

caused the farmers down around

to get money to bet on him, espe-
cially when ne fought Jack Nc
Auliffe at North Judson. Ind. way

is convinced on this French boy.
And they do not bar Ad Woigast
or any Of the others in their calcu-
lations. AS far as Mandot is con-
cerned he can trim one of them as
easily as he can another.
Mandot a Likely Winner.
And at this angle it looks more
as if Mandot had an excellent
chance of putting it over on Rivers

MADDOX SURE To
Be: MARVEL FOR
c. N. {. TEAMS

n EORGIA MILITARY coll
r LEGE made a ten-strike
when they secured A. X.
Maddox as athletic director, and
also professor of English, the COM
ing year. Maddox comes to G. NJ.
c. from the University of Georgia,
where his work in athletics has
been topnotch.
For two years he has been the
unanimous choice for tackle on the
AIl-SOuthern team, and every year
he has been placed on the ALL State
team. He has played tackle and
fullback on the Georgia team for
four years. Last year, due to the
injuries Of the captain, he directed
the play of the team. and through
his excellent work Georgia stood
second only to Vanderbilt in the
entire South.
Athens Loses by Change.
This year Coach Cunningham Sc
lected him as his assistant and he
had made his plans to return TO
college to take up this work, and
only with reluctance did Georgia
give this man to Professor Horton,
of G. NJ. c. To lose this sterling
player and excellent coach is a Sc
we're loss to the University Of Geor-
gia, but his good work at G. NJ. c.
will still reflect credit on his alma
mater.
During the preliminary work of
getting the G.. NJ. {. team in shape
for a championship season two of
Georgia's best athletes will be with
Maddox in Bob McWhorter, the
best halfback in the South and
mentioned on the All-American
team of last season, and Timon
Bowden, his running mate at half
back, who is also an All Southern
man. These men will work hard to
help G. NJ. c.. for Maddox is so well
liked, not only by his teammates,
but by the entire student body,
that they are all pulling for the
success of G. NJ. G.

gait far too late to overhaul the
Red Sox.
The Boston speed boys have been
playing a wonderfully consistent
game Of top-notch ball ever since
they said goodbye to the White
SoX away back in June. A perusal
OF box scores and other statistics
will show what tremendous fac
tor the work of Wood and Speaker
has been in this success. Sir Jo-
seph seems almost certain to lead
the winning Fingers Of the Ban
Johnson circuit when the season
turns from present into past. And
if Cobb does not suffer himself to

nation. The Wolgast- Mcfarland
contest in New York naturally will
be the big set piece of the fall
series OF battles in this ever popu-
lar class, but there are other con-
tests in sight that will divide in
terest.
Winner TO Get Wolgast.
The winner of the Rivers ManGot
battle out on the coast is reason
ably sure of an early crack at Ad
Wolgast for the title. They are
looking for a likely man to send
against the Cadillac marvel for the
Thanksgiving day date. 1t may be
that Willie Richie. the young
Frisco star, will get this engage
ment, as the newspapers out there
have espoused his cause and are
making a great ado because none
of the other fighters will pay any
attention to him
But there also is a better chance
that the winner of the Labor day
battle will get the FIST crack at the
champion, or what is left of the
champion after Mcfarland gets
through with him in that ten round
affair in New York 1t would be
mighty nice for Packey if he could
hook Wolgast up in a 20 or %
round affair out there. but the
weight naturally will stand in the

organization, the team is still with
out president.
Manager Schwartz now boasts of
the best outtield in the league, with
James, Daley and Welchonce fill
ing the three positions, and the
pitchers are all doing we'll with
the exception of Teddy Bair, who
is due to get the can" before the
season is over. West has devel-
oped into a star and Summers Is
the best twirler in the league.
Nashville's inheld is a steady one
and the catching staff one of the
best in the circuit.
Heretofore Manager Schwartz
has been somewhat partial to vet
eran players, but states that he will
try to strengthen up with some
fast youngsters next season. Speed
will be the main thing he will
seek. since that has handicapped
the team this year more than any
thing else.

DISTRICT AFTER LAND
Commissioners Send Bill to
Congress With View of Sc
curing Certain Parcels.

The Commissioners Of the District of
Columbia today sent to the House Of Rep
resentatives a draft of a bill with the
view Of gaining title to certain parcels OF
land along Rhode Island avenue from 4th
street to the District line. BY an act o.
Congress Of 1892 the Maryland and Wash
ington Railway Company was granted
permission to construct a street railway
on Rhode Island avenue within the limits
named. At that time the width for the
street was settled as 40 feet, and the
railway company was required to obtain
the necessary property and turn 1t ove..
to the District.
The District, however, has never gained
title to certain parcels OF land, valued a.
about 1850. The bill provides that the
Commissioners institute condemnation
proceedings and pay for the land and all
other expenses out of the District funds.
The bill also provides that the total cost
including the expenses of the condemna-
ton proceedings, be assessed as benefits
not less than half against the Washing
ton Railway and Electric Company. which
now controls the former Maryland and
Washington Railway Company, and thu
balance against abutting and adjacent
property.
