BASEBALL SPORTS OF ALL SORTS BOXING

Freddie Gilmore and Mike Gibbons
have been matched for a battle at the
welterweight notch of 145 pounds at
O'Clock, but it is by no means GER
tain that the fight will be pulled off.
Gibbons would have trouble in max
ing such a weight, and Gilmore,
though a good, clever fighter with a
punch, is not in the same flight with
the st. Paul man.
Joie Ray, |. A. C. track star, one OF
of the best middle distance runners
in the country, has been barred from
competition in local amateur boxing
tournaments because Of an enlarged
heart. Numerous track and field ath-
letes suffer from this condition, so
Rays malady is not serious. He was
formerly an amateur boxer.
Sixteen games remain to be played
in the international three-cushiOn bill
lard tournament, and any one of
four men has a chance to take the
title. Bill Huey is leading with seven
straight wins. Moore and Daily have
each won six and lost one, and De-
Orc, the champion, has five victories
and two defeats. Huey still has four
games to play and three of them with
the leading contenders for the title.
Today's matches are: Kieckhefer
and Hahman, Moore and Capron,
DAILY and JeVne, Huey and Ellis.
BucEtaiIs of South Bend went into
the lead of fiVe-men teams in the ma
tional bowling tournament at Peoria,
topping 2,847 pins. Eddie Kelly and
Al Toemmel of Chicago shot ahead
in the doubles with a count of 1921,
Kelly doing the heavy work with SIS.
The position of the leaders in the
singles are unchanged, Wilson and
Lellinger being tied for top honOrs
with 671.

as leadoff man for the Sox, if Hap
Felch continues to cIout viciOusly,
and John Collins keeps his regular
stride, what is to become Of Jack
Fourier, a natural 300 hitter, capa-
BILE of averaging his one nit in three
trips to the plate.
That is big question now, both to
Manager Rowland and the South
Side fans. The excellent work Of
Bunny Brief at first base stTangles
the probability that the Frenchman
will cavort there during the coming
campaign. Briefs fielding has been
of the first water, and in batting he
shows up against the Coast league
teams as a powerful asset.
Nevertheless, a place must be found
for Fourier. Three-hundred hftters
are important factors in the success
of any club, and such a rarity with
the White Sox that no man with such
an average can be left on the bench.
BOUrnier is still with the second
squad, and getting his daily practice
with the stick. Against the class of
pitching presented in California, and
it is good pitching, he has cloUted
for close to 400, numbering many ex-
tra-base knocks among his collection
of bingles.
QuinIan is an after thought and
may fail. He was not secured by
Rowland until the training season
was well under way and ChappeH had
demonstrated that he was not made
to. head a batting order. The shift
was also necessary because Buck
Weaver, last years bellwether, was
i'll in the hospital.
When Weaver is able to put on a
uniform again it is reasonable to sup
pose, despite all camp pspe stories to
the contrary, that he will be the first
man to face the pitcher at the beH.
Buck gets on with pleasing regular

Attendance

The annual school meeting held at
the new highscho0l building Tuesday

CON TRACT IS LET.
WORK ON BRUNO LAKE DRAIN
WILL BE COMMENCED
AT ONCE
MUST Be COMPLETED BY JAN. |
About 1000 Acres Will Be Re-
claimed, Most of Which is
Now Worthless

The contract for digging the
"Bruno Lake Drain" has been let to
the Rood Manufacturing Co., OF
Grand Rapids, Wis, who were the
lowest bidders. Their bid, on ap-
Droximately $4,000 cubic yards OF
excavating was 13 cents per yard for
peat, clay, sand, loan, gravel and
decomposed rock and 80 cents per
cubic yard of hard-pan. If rock is
encountered $500 is to be paid per
cubic yard of same, but the survey
shows no rock along route of the
ditch.
The proposed work will be an open
ditch for drawing off water and re-
claiming the marshy, sWampy and
overflowed land along, and tributary
to the lands specified, and for pro
noting the public health.
Speaking generally the lands to be
drained may be said to lie in the
towns of Flambeau and Grant and
the city of Ladysmith The ditch be
gins at Bruno lake, tapping also
Tulca lake-comprising 10 or Is
acres each-and after draining, by
diverting it's inlet, all of COrbett' S
lake but about ten acres, empties
into the river about three quarters
Of a mile below the Flambeau River
T 111 II
their envirOns of floating bOgs and
OverfloWed lands comprise a great
part of the total of about LOCO acres
to be benefited
The contractors will commence the
work at once and are already at
work loading the machinery for ship
ment here.
The ditch is to be completed by
Jan. 1, 1916.
COrbett lake, now owned by John
Jez, Paul Piper, John Lindoo and the
r. COrbett estate, comprises about 60
acres, and it's surface is some p
feet above the Flambeau river 1t
IS a place of some local historic In
terest, as from about 1885 TO 1898
the sawmill of the late Robert Cor
bett-the first in this part of the
country-was located on it's north
arm, which was used for log
pond.
An important benefit to the city,
that will result from the draining
of Corbett lake, is the sanitary re-
suits that will follow. AS it is now,
it stagnates in midsummer, furnish
ing an ideal breeding place for mes
quitoes, the exhalatiOns from it's d.
caying vegetation also constituting q
grave menace.

THRILLING BATTLE EXPERIENCES
StaIey Writes Of Fighting in France.
Fierce Bayonet Charge

We are in receipt of the follow
ing letter from the NeWs-BudSets s
special war correspondent, F. v.
Staley, serving with the British ar
my and now stationed near the
French Belgian border not far from
Ypres:
Special to Ladysmith News-Bud3et.
''The Front, June 1, 1915.
Friend Bell: | want to register
kick and am doing it in the en-
closed letter Several things | don't
like. First, | wish | could send my
letters directly from the front to you,
but am afraid of that censor, so |
am mailing this to a friend at Abb
erdeen, Scotland, and | trust it Will
reach it's destination.
The other day | sealed up a bunch
of envelopes containing photos, post
card size, stamped them all and
mailed to a friend in Liverpool to
be sent to you and other Ladysmith
friends.
Submarines being very active,
do not want to send too much mail
to one place, as it might all go over
together on the same steamer and
be sunk.
That is one of your friends
troubles.
Another is that the Germans have
got me so that l can't take a quiet
afternoon snoOZe any more as |
used to. They keep me busy about
all my spare time, lodging etc.
Honest, I've taken to cover more
in the last week than l ever did
before And my poor knees have
most Of the bark scraped off them.
You know a sniper gets sniped once
in awhile, and the best way to come
out of these stirring times with
whole hide is to be an artful dodg-
er, regardless of sore knees.
I've almost ruined my pack
which contains oyercoat and blan-
ket, by not "flopping" in time.
One square-head had the audacity
to keep firing at all of me that he
could see, which happened ito be, my
right knee and the pack on my
back. l was lying behind little
knoll with my face flat on the
ground and trying to get it lower
still. He could see my pack and
one knee. He did not hit the Of
Tending knee, but he hit the pack
three times. | lay quiet after that
until darkness came, just, four hours
later, when | managed to crawl back
to my own trench, sadder and
wiser Gordon
The way the whole racket start
ed was this:
The Huns had a Maxim nicely
tucked away somewhere about six
hundred yards from my trench and
they were wiping things up gener-
ally. 1 volunteered with another
sniper to locate said gun and put it
out of commission.
We never got anywhere near the
gun, believe me, for We hadn't gone
half the distance when they spotted
us and opened fire on us. Ever
hear a machine gun? Well, | not
only heard that one but I felt it,
too l thought the Avenging Angel
was seeking me out sure.
Why l did not get hit by anything
more venomous than gravel and dirt,
is more than | can tell you. | got
plenty of that.
We lay quiet for some few min
utes until they though we were
