and numerous changes were made by
The coach to try and get a winning
combination. The loss OF Clancy, who
sustained a fractured collar bone short
ly after the 1rst game, weakened the
team considerable, as he was by far
the hes. end in the squad.
Tho showing OF Delaware against
Swarthmore in the FIRST half OF the
game on Saturday was a surprise TO
everyone. The blue and gold put up
a fight that made every son OF Della
ware proud OF them, but the weight on
the Little Quakers" was too much for
them in the last half
To date Delaware has won two and
lost five games. The team started or
by losing TO Maryland A. c.. at College
Park, after Coach Baumgartner had
been in charge but one week. and con-
sequently had little opportunity TO
even Judge Of the ability Of the MEM
bers OF the squad. This defeat was
followed by a victory over Haverford
on the latter's grounds, which was the
first time in many years that a blue
and gold team had won from Haver-
ford. Delaware next lost to Western
Maryland. and Dickinson, but defeated
Gallaudet and then lost to stevens and
SwarlhmOre.
The game with ut. st. Mary's, on
Thanksgiving Day. should bring out
large crowd. The two teams are ap-
parently evenly matched, and there is
propects Of a Gloss game. Mt St.
Mary's defeated Delaware last Thanks

The squad welcomed the two days

Swarthmore last Saturday, and the
lay-off Will no doubt benent most Of
the squad, as they had been going
hard since early in September with
very little let up.
While the season has not been a

was the FIRST season for Baumgartner
as coach, he succeeding William ]. Nc

Tener Will be Reelected
President of National League

John McGraw's blatant protest
against the way things were done IN
the leagues headquarters threw a
shadow on the leagues president
There have been few shines In baseball
when an executive was made the OBJ
iect OF such scathlng criticism as Nc
Graw agreed to stand sponsor for.
Tener came out Of that mess with his
colors as bright as.they ever had been,
and he effectually stepped on McGraw
for an time by announcing that he
would not again be a candidate for the
presidency Of the league He accom-
plished a coup in this. because 10 then
became necessary for the magnates TO
signify their utmost confidence In him
by inviting him TO head the league
once more.
The National League never has had a
moro vlrile president than Tener. In
his quiet, easy-g0ing way he rules with
a firm hand. There never has been
a sustained whisper against him. He
has a clean record.
Chances are that Tener's salary OF
sos 900 annually will be given a boost
when ne is again elected, and 70 Is
probable his term Of office viii be for
five years. instead Of the usual four.

PIERCE CITIZENS
VOICE LOYALTY TO
NEW ARMY PLAN
Meeting Called at BIaCkShear
to Protest Against the Law
Is Turned Into Gathering of
Enthusiastic Patriotism
Especial Dispatch to The Journal)

Especial Dispatch to The Journal)
BLACKSHEAR. Ga, Aug. 11.-Tierce
county citizens this afternoon turned a
meeting widely advertised as one at
which Grover c. Edmondson would
speak in behalf of the repeal of the
selective army law. into gathering
which gave enthusiastic and emphatic
endorsement to the new army plan.
Mr.. Edmondson spoke as advertised.
He appealed for the repeal of the Sc
leotive army plan.
Hon. John w. Bennett in a very able
speech replied to Mr.. Edmondson, giving
the young men some sound advice, which
was met with storms of applause and
left no doubt in the minds of those
present how the majority of the people
of this county. the mother of congress-
men, felt on the selective service law.
Mr.. Bennett urged the spirit of sacrifice
and patriotism.
A Baptist minister. Rev. DR.. w. p.
Price, of Waycross, followed Mr. Ben
nett and stated that he had told his son
when he asked him for advice that
he had replied 81 had rather see your
dead body come home wrapped in the
Stars and Saripes than see the United
States wrapped in the flag of the kais-
err" This meeting should satisfy all
concerned that the people of Pierce coun-
ty are loyal and that they do not in
any way sympathize with this fanaticai
foolishness that is being shown by apos-
ties of discord in Georgia politics.
Mr. Edmondson's resolution to petition
congress to repeal the draft law was
voted down amid taunts and boots of
all kinds.
Another striking example of the loyal
ty of the citizens of Blackshear and
of Pierce county developed a few days
ago when a special session of council
was called on the announcement that
Mr.. Edmondson would make an address
favoring the repeal of the selective
army law, and the city marshal was
directed to prevent the delivery of the
speech on the streets.
The jurisdiction of the council. how
ever, did not extend to the courthouse
where Mr.. Edmondson spoke.

GERMAN GENERAL
ADMITS VIOLATION
OF NEUTRALITY
FaISity of TeItonS' PretenSe in
Invasion of Belgium Made
Clear in a Statement by Gen,
Won Freytag-LoringhOven,

COPENHAGEN, Aug. 11.--Lieutenant
General Baron Won Observation-Disclosures
chief of the supplementary general staff
of the German army, in an article print
ed in a German newspaper. admits the
falsity of the German pretention that
the violation of Belgium neutrality in
the campaign of August. 1914. was due
to military and defensive necessity pro-
voked by alleged preparation OF the
French to invade Germany through Bel
quinn. General Won Freytag- Loring-
hoven writes that, on the contrary, the
French originally started to concentrate
their armies along their own western
frontier, and made belated change in
their plan only after the German often
sive was set in motion through Belgium,
and the Germans profited greatly from
the resulting confusion and delay.
Stories of French troops marching
through Belgium during the first days
of the war and of airplane and automo-
bile attacks from Belgium territory, and
other fairy tales which figured so large
ly in German justification of the inva-
sion of Belgium are not mentioned in
General Won ytag-Loringhoven's ar
,ticle.
after describing the advance of the
bulk of the German force westward
consisting of four armies comprising it's
center and right wing. through neutral
Belgium and Luxembourg beginning
August Is, 1914, he says:
THE French main concentration was
originally accomplished between Belfort
and the Belgian frontier and the first
indication that they contemplated Ger
man advance through Belgium resulted
in shift to the left. p. The entente
allies recognized only on August IL that
strong German forces also were ad
vancing in a wide enveIoping movement
on the left bank of the river Mouse.
only an army of cavalry, strengthened
by some infantry, was present.
in consequence of the original err
roneous decision directed toward the
east, the French fifth army did not sue
coed in advancing beyond the line of Di-
nt-Charleroi by August %. and was
forced to content itself with holding the
passages of the rivers Sambre and
Meuse."
The article proceeds to describe the
disastrous effect of the sweep of that I'M
expected German flood upon successive
French armies and the advance to the
Marine. General Won Freytag-Loring-
hoven declares that the Germans re-
treated from the Marine because they
were too weak to break through the
French lines, but he argues that al
though final success was missed there.
Germany. by seizing the opportunity of
daring advance through Belgium,
avoided war on her own territory.
