D. G. SPORTSMEN
WAR ENGROSSED
College and Amateur Sporting
Events viii. Yield to Ma
tion's Interest. Z

In the event OF a declaration of
war, practically all sports in this
city will either be called of or
greatly modified. The three univer-
stiles Georgetown, Catholic Uni
versity. and George washington-the
various tennis and golf clubs and
amateur baseball leagues, have an
nounced the intention of canceling
schedules and cutting down in COM
petitive games to erepare for war.
Catholic University, through its
athletic director, Charles v. Moran,
is out with the statement today that
all sports at the Brookland institu-
ion Will be Cancelled. The Catholic
University students are being form
ed into companies, practically the en-
tire engineering school being made
ready to offer services.
As many Of the members of various
teams At Catholic University are en-
cheering students the teams would
be so seriously handicapped that 1t
has been deemed advisable to call on
all scheduled games.
Coz Drills His Men.
Georgetown students will be as
sembled for military drill under
physical director John B. orReilly. ac-
cording to the graduate manager Of
athletics. Charles v. Cox. In the
event that colleges scheduled with
Georgetown call on their games here
Georgetown will give up the baseball
campaign to follow in line with other
institutions.
George washington Will not be al
fected this spring, as the university
has practically no spring activities
In athletics. The various tennis and
golf clubs have taken the matter OF
calling off schedules under advise
ment- All the tennis clubs AFFILIATED
with the United States Lawn Tennis
Association will postpone tourna'
ments. Fifteen hundred players In
the city have been asked to sign pet[
tions to Congress asking for universal
military training. There is every In
dication that Chevy Chase, Dunbar
ton, and Columbia will call off the
big tournaments scheduled for the
spring and summer.
Robert n. Young, president of the
Amateur Baseball Association Of the
District, which comprises eight anna
teur baseball leagues, will call q
meeting shortly to determine what
steps will be taken by the amateurs
in the event Of war.
The amateur league president has
signified his intention of recruiting
a company or battalion from the
ranks Of the amateurs having had
experience in the national guard a.
captain some years ago.
Golf clubs may call off tournaments
here this summer in the event of war.
No definite action has been taken by
the executive committee of the Colum-
bia, Chevy Chase, or the Washington
Town and Country Club.
As New York and Philadelphia golf
ers have called off tournaments in the
event of war, the Middle Atlantic As
sociation golfers, comprising fifteen
clubs in Maryland. the District of
Columbia. and Delaware, are expected
to do the same. A meeting Of the
association may be called to take up
the matter.

|. Drink Hot Water
# You Desire a
Rosy Complexion
Gays we can't help but look
better and feel better
after an Inside bath.

To look ones best and feel ones
best is to enjoy an inside bath each
morning to flush from the system the
previous days waste, sour fermenta-
tions and poisonous toxins before II
is absorbed into the blood. Just as
coal, when IL burns, leaves behind a
certain amount of incombustible ma
terial in the form of ashes, so the
food and drink taken each day leave
IN the alimentary organs a certain
amount OF indi gestible material,
which, II not eliminated, form toxins
and pOisons, WHICH are then sucked
into the blood though the very ducts
which are intended to suck in only
nourishment to sustain the body.
II you want to see the glow OF
healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see
your skin get clearer and clearer, you
are told to drink every morning upon
arising n glass OF hot water with a
teaSpOonful OF limestone phosphate

washing the waste material and toN-

suits in one or two weeks.
A quarter pound Of limestone phos-
phate costs very little at the drug
store, but is sufficient to demonstrate
that just as soap and hot water
cleanses, purIhes and freshens the
skin on the outside. so hot water and
limestone phosphate act on the inside
organs. We must always consider
that internal sanitation Is vastly
more important than outside cleanli-
ness, because the skin pores do not
absorb impurities into the blood.

WILBURT SEEKING
CONGRESS COUNSEL
Strike Leader confers With
Members on Government Own
ership of Trolley Lines.

George A. wilburt, president Of the
union of which the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Companys employees
are members, was at the Capitol today
conferring with Congressman on the
Introduction Of a bill providing for
Government ownership and operation
Of the local traction companies.
Mr.. wiIburt was accompanied ty q
committee appointed by the union,
and attended comforting with Chair
men Smith and johnson, of the Sem
ate and House District Committees;
Congressmen Crosser and Galliyan.
and other advocates OF Government
ownership Of the Washington railway
systems
Congressman Cary, who offered
Joint resolution in the House yester-
day providing for "the appointment of
a committee to ascertain the cause of
the strike by the employees OF the
Washington Railway and Electric
Company" was active today in the In
terest Of the measure. He conferred
with fellow members of the House
District Committee and later said he
belieYed the committee would recon-
mend the appointment OF the commit
tee.
Practically all the activities Of the
strikers were centered on Congress
today. and they expressed the belief
that before the end OF the week some
definite step looking to a settlement
of the strike would be taken at the
Capitol
c. L. o. Pledges AID Anew.
The Central Labor Union, at a
meeting last night. resffirmed Its po-
sition in the strike and pledged anew
Its utmost support to the strikers.
The attitude of the company was
condemned.
H. NJ McLarin, president of the
Federal Employees Union, last night
sent a letter to the District Commits
sioners in which he charged that
German spies" were among the
strike breakers and demanded that the
men brought here from other cities
to operate the cars be photographed
and finger printed. He also suggest
ed that an inquiry be made a. to
whether or not the strike breakers
had criminal records.
Frank Morrison, secretary OF the
American Federation of Labor, gave
out a statement regarding the strike
and the attitude of the company.
NwlH Not sta.d Test
The statement follows:
The opposition of Mr.. King, presi-
dent of the Washington Railway and
Electric Company, to the ,Amalga-
mated Association of Street Railway
Employees and It's officers, because II
is a foreign organization-with
headquarters outside of this city
will not stand the test of logic.
Does Mr.. King want a Chinese
wall built around Washington, and
does he favor developing a narrow,
provincial spirit in this city? Does
he apply this theory in all other bust.
ness relations? When he lived in
Philadelphia, were Washingtonians
foreigners, and are PhiladeIphians
now foreigners, since Mr.. King has
located in our midst?
"Mr. King seems blind to Industrial
developments and to support his be-
lief now rejected by every forward
looking man, he resorts to a theory
that would logically cut Washington
people of from all communication
with the outside world and would
even deport President King himself"

MAKES FINE RECORD HAULING
FREIGHT WITH GMC TRUCK

Mr.. ]. b. Hahn of the Independent
Transportation Company, of Forks,
Washington, is hauling freight on
the most westerly point of the United
States.
Last April Mr. Hahn put in service
a model 81, u ton GMC truck
which today is hauling freight be-
tween Forks and Clallum Bay and
as far as Port Angeles, 65 miles
away.
Mr.. Hahns freighting has all been
done over mountainous roads on the
Olympic Peninsula, some of the
grades running as high as IA per
cent-several running as high as
and s per cent. For three miles he
has mountain roads in which it is all
gear work.
Mr.. Hahn states that he has owned
a GMC truck since April and since
then he has not paid out one cent
for repairs. He says he has averaged
13 miles to a gallon of gasoline which
is as much milage as he recently got
with cheaper truck of a great deal
less capacity.
She is the best truck l have ever
used" says Mr.. Hahn, land wouldn't
be without it,
81 have tried other makes of trucks
over the same route, but none of
them have proven satisfactory"
ut was not until | purchased my
GMC and put her to work that
really knew what freedom from truck
worries was"

Worse and More of IL,

There is story in connection with
certain paper which tells how it re-
ferred to two learned gentlemen as
blbulous old flies instead of "biblio-
philes.'
Next morning the editor received a
very wrathful protest. In his correc-
tion and apology, however, he said
something about "the learned gentle
men are too fastidious.' To the eli
tor horror the printer again distin
suished himself, and the statement ap.
peared, The learned gentlemen are
two fast idiots"
Bad handwriting once resulted in
this sentence appearing in an Ameri
can paper: "Mr. -. a nobbv old bur
gar, proving round in naked state"
IL should have read: "Mr. -. n noble
ola burgher. proudly loving his native
state"
