EXPECT BOOM IN ATHLETICS
Il Is Believed That Indoor Sport viii
Be Lively This season-Panie
Stage Passed.

Indoor athletics will enjoy much
more prosperous season during the
coming months than last winter. The
breaking Of relations with Germany
was the signal for the closing Of a
majority of the armOries In the middle
Of the seasons dOlngs, and this spoiled
many athletic meetings. Now that the
panic stage has passed and the mill
tary authorities are encouraging the
continuation of all athletic sports,
there Is every reason to believe that
conditions something like normal will
hold sway when the board Of floor
game gets under way.
There have been not few criti.
cisms hurled In the direction of the
track men because they have not done
as much for war charities as have the
men who follow tennis. golf and other
games. II cannot be said that the ath-
letes have followed the exhOrtatiOn of
the Red Cross people to "give until It
hurts" but, on the other hand, the
clnderpath set have done something.
Many Of the smaller clubs and leagues
have turned over the proceeds of
games for charitable purposes. and the
big athletic clubs have spent hundreds
of dollars promoting athletic events fol-
soldiers.

GERMANS NOW KNOW BETTER

thing but Canadians or English
Until Game Was Played.

Germans held prisoners In France
wouldn't believe the American soldiers
now behind the front were anything
else but Canadians or perhaps British
until they saw them play ball. Now
they know better. A correspondent
writing from the front tells the story
thus.
The Sammies used to meet German
prisoners Oh the road every day. Once
In while they would strike one who
could speak Englsh-and the story
was always the same.
You can't tell us you're American"
said one German spokesman. you're
Englishmen In American uniforms.
The Americans can't bring over troops
because the U-boats are sinking their
transports"
One day when the Sammies had an
afternoon Off two ball teams fought
out the regimental championship on a
typical old sand lot. Working In a dis.
tant field the German prisoners
stalled on the Job watching the game.
One Of the ball players met German
on MS way back.
"WhO wOn?" asked the prisoner In
English.
"We did, O to T."
The German gave In.
"iou must be Americans, all right"
he remarked sadly. "No Englishmen
