FOOTBALL IN the 81 Paso district
n reached its highest point OF IN
\ tsrest IN the Thanksgiving game
between the all Fl Paso army team
and the gridiron warriors OF Camp
Cody and has since been On the de-
cline as far as local games are con
cerned. although considering the
Climate = favorable season may be
expestsd TO exist until the new year.
The numerous football teams OF
both civilian and army origin have
done much 10 add to the local IN
tsrest IN the game and to promote
a series OF internural games IN the
forms OF rsgimental, civilian, and
mixed civilian and army games,
which 20 the individuals themselves
are very desirable because OF the
large number Of men who are inter
ested and who derive material ben
efits from the exercise. It was not
unusual for q schedule OF three or
Saturday afternoon with the pos
sibility OF a game or two on the FOL
lowing Sunday morning
A Widespread Interest.
Such widespread interest by the
players and the friendly rivalry,
ments and local teams, are objects
which physical directors are con-
tinualiy striving to attain. but In
this case, IL was not brought about
By any particular cooperation, or
through any central authority but
by the promotion OF such activities
among their own organizations by
men interested in athletics among
whom are Lieut. J. +. Lilley. saith IN
fantry. Lieut.. Garry 18th filed artil-
lery. A. L H0lms, physical director
OF the local 7. N c. A, and Captains
A. R Underwood and A. R. HanIon
OF the 54th infantry.
Football enthusiasm did not pre-
vail among the players alone but was
extended TO q large number OF in
terested persons and supporters Of
their favOrite teams.
The best attended game OF the
HensOn was the Thanksgiving
game when the High school
nmphitheater was filled to over
flowing but every game Of the
season was very well attended.
IL seemed to make NO difference
a. to how many games were be-
Ing played on certain date
there would always be a full quota
Of sideline visitors.
However since the Thanksgivinc
date there has been q notable decline
IN the football activities which is
probably due to the advent OF the
basketball season as an indoor game
for the wintry months Of the year.
Already the directors OF physical
work in the various regiments are
arranging playing grounds. some Of
which are indoors and others out
door as a place for the men TO rid
themselves OF that latent physical
energy, which only q game requiring
physical eLertion can bring out.
Excellent Football Material
The result Of the large number OF
organization teams was the bringing
OF a great deal OF excellent football /
material that otherwise would not I

BY DENMAN THOMPSON.

Although the Washington club has
lost the last fve games played and TO-
day is reposing. with a percentage OF
.2ss, only half a game ahead of the
Detroit Tigers, in last places this can
not be taken to mean that the team is
destined to remain where it now is in
the standing. Aside from the game OF
a week ago in Philadelphia, when the
Mackmen pounded a quartet of Gr1f-
! fth's pitchers for twenty hits and six
Teen runs. the Washington bunch has
! not looked bad, even though in defeat,
and three of the games lost would
have been victories had not majority
or the breaks gone to the opposition.
Griffith is nettled over the recent
beatings handed to his team. He is
mad. fighting mad. but is by no means
discouraged.
Some one will have to pay for the
bad breaks in luck that we have been
J getting" the manager said today.
"Five straight games lost might tend
70 discourage some teams. but not that
club of mine. The boys are full of fight
and are determined to show that the
team does not belong down where IT is
now Some one will have to pay. and
thing this is pay day. Once we get
started. look out, We can win FIVE
straight with more facility than we
lost that number. and we will just
about get on our way today
