Edmunds, Benbrook, Craig, Schultz
and many others, who were famed far
and wide on the gridiron.
But the last two years have been
tempestuous ones for Yost. He has
not had what might be termed a line
for three years and has depended on

Syracuse. the Michigan Aggies and
other teams have soured the Michigan
football fans on Yost and they want to
see a revival such as Bob Folwell made
at Pennsylvania.
Folwell, in spite Of bringing football
out of the mire at Pennsylvania, was
canned by the faculty athletic COM
mittee because he played in game of
cards while the team was on the way
to California. but so immense was the
flood of protest launched by the fol-
lowers Of Pennsy football that the
faculty reconsidered its action and
gave the big mentor a contract for
1917.
After getting off to good start in

WOULD-BE RECRUITS
fail TO PASS TESTS
Demands of Army and Navy Prove
Impossible for Two.

'I can't hear good, sarge but
am one heluva man when II comes to
fghtin' -, declared a would-be recruit
who appeared yesterday at the Army
Tent Station.
Sergeant W. c. Hunt. with optics
ever alert to the sometimes timid re-
cruit. had seen the man eyeing a re-
cruiting poster in front of the sta
ton a moment before and had called
out good-naturedly come on in, only
to discover on closer inspection that
his prospective rookie was minus the
lobes of his left and right ears. So
far as the lobes were concerned, 1t
might have been possible to issue the
man some mechanical devices to aid
him in arresting sound waves, but
wheh- the patriot declared his ear
drums were practically out of COM
mission too. the officer courteously
informed the former that the Zig
was up so far as enlisting was con-
cerned.
At the Navy Recruiting Station, a
would-be Jack Tar strolled in who
was not quite so frank about his
physical imperfections He was given
a chart to read, and with one eye
made a perfect score so far as de-
ciphering the letters of the alpha bet
was concerned. He was told to close
his left optic and repeat the pro-
gram of calling out the letters as
they were pointed out. He wanted
to enlist badly, but no matter what
letters were indicated he always read
them as A, B, c, D, E.
Reaching up his right hand the ap-
plicant plucked the glass eye from its
socket and replied, Its all right so
far as looks go. but it amt worth a
darn when it comes to seeing"

LAST CALL To enter
ARMY BEFORE DRAFT
Registrars May Enlist Until Or
dered to Report for Service.

Young men of Washington who are
liable to draft have one last chance
to volunteer for service in the Regu-
lar Army and National Guard before
being drafted into service. This
chance is rapidly dwindling as the
hour for the selection of the new
national army approaches.
After a registrant is ordered to re-
port, according to an announcement
made yesterday by the War Depart
ment,, he will no longer have the priv
ilege OF choosing his branch of the
service. He will have to take chances
on being assigned to whatever arm
of the service the authorities may de-
termine, as he will be barred from
volunteering for the regular army or
the Guard.
The District is still short by 31i
men Of the number of its quota al
lotted in the regular army. Since the
first of April. Isl. 40 men have been
enlisted in the regular army. The
Marine Corps is now practically full
and no special effort is being made to
secure recruits. The fact that the
navy has limited the number of re-
crufts to be accepted at the local
station to ten a week is an indica-
tion that that branch of the service
has nearly all the enlisted men it
wants. This ten a week does not in

Ukulele Wins Heart
When All Else Fails

New York, July 19.-Many swains
wooed Rosie O'Brien in vain.
Her heart was not to be had for
the asking.
That is. not until Joseph Gonsalves
came out of the West with a ukulele
from which he extracted music that
would have melted any heart.
The strains OF the ukulele lured Ro-
sic from home and she was not to
be found until her mother remem-
bered Gonsalves and his luke" Po-
lice traced the two to an apartment
house. but it was too late. The pair
were married.

STUDENT OFFICERS
ASSIGNMENTS MADE
Real War Game Played at Fort
Myer Camp.

Student officers at Fort Myer Re-
serve Camp hitherto unassigned. were
assigned yesterday to various branch
es of the Service. Two hundred can
didates were designated to serve as
quartermasters. 20 as ordinance off,
GERS, and 10 in the intelligence corps
of the army. Among the distinguished
visitors at the camp yesterday was
Mrs. Frederick d. Grant, widow of
Maj. Gen. Grant.
Gov. Stuart, of Virginia, will be a
visitor at the camp this afternoon.
probably at retreat, according to an
announcement made yesterday.
Conditions OF training at the camp
are approximating more closely each
day the actual situations at the front
in France. Bomb throwers are learn
ing the art of hurting their explosives
with deadly accuracy. Other compa-
mes of cadets are each day taught
how to shoot at the Edsall target
range. The recent rains have added
another touch Of reality to the situ-
alton by affording trenches knee-deep
in mud.
1t Is a stiff war game in spite of
the mud, and all the candidates are
throwing themselves enthusiastically
into the work of learning how to pot
the enemy, while not neglecting the
no less important art of being able
to dive to the "rat-holes" as the dug
outs are known, when the enemy is
getting in some pot shots on his own
behalf.
The three batteries are taking turns
at maneuvers with the light artillery.
while the troop of cavalry is taking
the same drills as the infantry COM
panies.
With slight variations the present
methods OF training will be continued
for several days. according to Col.
Fenton, ccmmandant of the Reserve
Camp.

PARALYSIS EPIDEMIC
FEARED IN DISTRICT
Seeurse, Among Children Threaten
ed. Health Department Warns.

An epidemic OF infantile paralysis
in Washington Is possible this sum-
mer. according to a statement made
Yesterday by DR.. William G. Wood
ward, head Of the District Health
Department. The fact that the city
was on the outskirts of the affected
region last summer may mean that
the epidemic center will move toward
the District this year.
Last year Washington was first Sc
riously visited by the plague. Nearly
70 cases were reported to the local
health bureau. The mortality, how
ever, was not alarming
Should the disease visit the city
again this season, 1t would be the
second time within the District and,
II the supposed rule holds true, II
would be the worst.
Seven cases of the plague have been
reported from Cumberland, Md. This
is the nearest infantile paralysis has
come to the District so far this sum-
ner. as no instances OF the disease
have been reported from the city DUR
Ing 1871. In Minnesota p cases have
been reported within the year. while
in New York City 80 babies have been
stricken in the first six months OF
the year.
Absolutely nothing is known about
the cause, prevention or cure of the
plague. according to DR.. Woodward.
Only general precautionary sanitary
measures can be taken. The best ad-
vice the health department can give
to eyade infantile paralysis Is to keep
everything spotlessly clean, keep the
baby cool and free from insects, give
children wholesome food, and watch
the sources of milk and water supply.
Equally dangerous to babies as in
fantile paralysis, during the hot sum-
mer months. Is infantile diarrhea, or
summer sickness. Each week a
number. of deaths OF infants, under
one year of age, are recorded. Dur
ing the week ending July IA. seven
babies died from this disease.
Births still exceed deaths in the
District; 131 babies were born and 1O9
deaths were reported for the week
ending July IL
