DOES BASEBALL
FOLLOW THE FLAG!

NEW YORK, Oct. 25- Does base
ball-one step in rear of the constitu-
ton, follow the flag?
United States Marine Corps repre-
sentatives say that it does, and old
B. B. is the greatest single factor in
captivity for the perpetuatlon OF
peace, according to their views
The bat ball and glove form part
a marines eXpeditionary equipment,
and it has been SAID that he carries
baseball paraphernalia in his KNAPP
sack side by side with implements of
a more serious nature. The marine
has been sent to all parts of the world
on errands of duty, and everywhere he
has carried the irresistable game with
him. But, unlike other missionaries
carrying the good work in dark places,
he hasn't gotten himself into trouble
through it, and he rates the glorious
old pastime as 100 per cent efficient
in the cause of peace.
A grizzled old Soldier of the sea-"
who has played the game in every
cline, gave expression yesterday to
the following when interviewed at the
Brooklyn Marine Barracks: Canned
Caruso or the Symphony in may
have charms to sOothe the savage
breast, but when it comes to piping
down a hostile 'hombne' in his native
lair, show him a man on third in the
ninth inning with two down, and the
score tie We've done it in China,
Guam, the Philippines, Alaska and
everywhere that a man may go, and it
has always made for peace. Give
your Uncle Samuel a few thousand
more marines with plenty of good
baseball players to fill the ranks, and
the warning nations of the world will
be cemented closer together with the
bonds of true sportsmanship."
