SPORTS OFALL SORTS

F. F. Atha, playing on the Blue Hills
course in Kansas City, tells this one:
I'VE were playing a foursome-Dr.
Charles w Moore, Robert L. Lake
mann, George H. Sombart and myself.
I had made a poor drive, and had to
go into the rough for my approach
shot. The other players were we'll
ahead of me. l got good lift and the
ball went sailing in the direction OF
Dr. Moore, practically on the green.
When reached the place found that
the ball had skipped past DR.. Moores
hip and gone into one of his trouser
pockets. My opponents insisted that
play my lie where it was. DR.. Moore
objected-and strenuously, too. He
vowed he wouldn't let me try lamming
him with a niblick, and threw out
the ball. 1t rolled onto the green and

PLANk'S AMAZING WORK.
No man has pitched better baseball
this year than this 4O-year-old port
slider. With weak hitting club be-
hind him he is pitching at 200 clip.
He has all his old speed, curves and
control, and Eddie Planks work is of
the kind that probably will lead him
to the pitching leadership of the Fed
eral league in 1915.
Had Plank been with the heavy hit

brand of baseball that he's been pitch

instead of being in second place,
would be so far ahead in the lead in
the American League fight that the

scenes were enacted in the German
reichstag yesterday when the Socialist,
Scheidemann. urged that the govern

At the same time the Socialist, Ledc-

Scheidemann. according to informa-
ton received here. protested bitterly
against the governments alleged action
in placing the ban on Socialist writings
and speeches. He said that the ending
OF the war Is an urgent necessity, ac-
cording to the Berlin dispatches.
Now, when we are strong and VIC
torious, is the time to tell the country
through the press that VIC favor peace
on a reasonable basis Scheidemann
was quoted as saying.
Ledebour, whose actions are said to
have been dsavowed by some of the
other German Socialists. said he had
learned that the use of the French

FALL OF PRzEMYSL

American army officers arc taking the
kecnest sort OF Interest today In dis
patches telling of the capture OF
Przemysl.
Here. II is expected, the fan of tho
fortress will have not only important
military effects. but great moral effect
as we'll.
Obviously. the fall of the fortress
opens the way for the Russians to set
in motion great drive at the i'm
portant Austrian city of Cracow. Re-
lease of some 10000 Russian troops that
have been Vcteranized by the opera
tions about Przemysl for operations
against the Austro- German forces, either
about Cracow or elsewhere, is a factor
OF moment in tho campaigning on the
eastern front.
But there is much more to the fall Of
tho Galcian fortress than that. In the
opinion of sOmc of the most astuto
military observers. The moral effects
of the victory will be to spur on tho
Russians and to heartcn the allies.
Stll more, as viewed here, the fact
that the Russians have achieved this
success is likely TO prove the last straw
to decide Italy TO enter the war. and
perhaps Greece and other Balkan states

Of Krottingen in Russia

BERLIN CVia Wireless to Sayrille)'
March ga German army that drove
the Russians out of Memel has pushed
the Muscovites back twelve miles
across the Russian town OF krottingen,
the war office announces this otter
noon.
Arriving at Krottingen. the Germans
set free 5000 German inhabitants OF the
Memel district who had been dragged
across the border by the Russians, pre-
sumably as hostages. The Russian
flight from Memel was so precipitatc
that the raiders were forced to aban-
don not only the hostages. but part of
their loot.
There has been a lull in the fighting
in Poland. On both sides of the Orzec
river, northeast of Przasnysz, Russian
attacks have been repulscd.
In the France-Flanders lighting the
Germans have rcpulsed a series OF at
tacks near Carcncy. northeast Of Arras:
in the Champagne and Argonnc regions,
and around Badorvillcr, in the Vosges,
where the French sustained heavy
losses.
The Germans repulsed a night at

French trenches just as the enemy
prepared to charge.

Gen. Robertson Is Made

LONDON, March 3.-Ofhcial orders
were issued last night making Mai. Gen.
Sir William r. Robertson chief of stan
of the British army, and transferring
Mai. Gen. John +. Murray to the fight
inc line in France. Just why such al

his roll of honor He was awarded the
Kings medal and the Distinguished
Service Order medal for bravery.

supplementary comment to tho effect
that tho hiistro German offensive in

Considerable Significance was attached
