Abolish Golf Stymies
in All Western Matches

Chicago, May 21.-Stymies are abol-
lshed by revolutionary rufe pro-
mulgated by the Western Golf Asso-
station for play in the western anna
teur Championship. to be held at the
Midlothian Country Club, Chicago.
July to ID. The new rule. which
does away, so far as three-fourths
of the United States and all of cam
ada are concerned, with one of the
most discussed penalties of golf, also
eliminates to large extent the both
eP of lifting balls on the putting
green in medal play.
The new rule upsets one of the
cardinal rules of the ancient Scottish
game by providing that the ball
nearer the hole shall be played first
when both balls are on the putting
green. Heretofore the ball farther
from the hole had to be played first,
In match play. where the contest is
hole by hole, the old rule brought
about stymie when the ball nearer
the hole was in direct line of play
OF the ball farther from the cup. In
medal play the old rule demanded
that the ball nearer the hole be
played or lifted until the one farther
away had been played, If the first
player desired. as he would suffer a
penalty of one stroke If his ball hit
that of his fellow competitor.

BASEBALL IS
PART OF WAR
Athletic Instructors With
Stars to Do Their Bit
Training Men

washington, May 21.-A practical
method of national service whereby
famous football and baseball play
ers, physical instructors and athletes
generally can aid the government
with their special skill and knowI-
edge has been provided through the
committee on training camp ac-
tiVlties recently appointed by Secre-
tary Baker with Raymond b. Eos
dick as chairman.
After study of Canadian and
British army training systems, Mr..
tosdick has found that all athletic
sports and even children's games
nave a distinct place in military
work and give the soldier the iron
muscles he needs in the hand TO
hand hghting of trench warfare.
To Feature Baseball
Baseball will be the featuro of
the efforts of the committee. EN-
tensive organization of divisional
leagues and championship competi-
lions that probably will include n
national pennant race, will be en-
couraged by the committee and sun-
ported by officers in command of
the camps.
similar organization for other
sports will also be perfected. Men
OF national reputation as ball play
ers or athletic trainers will be as
signed to each camp to instruct and
aid the soldier players.
Another feature of the recreation
al programs will be bayonet com
petitions.

RED" OWENS
LANDS ANOTHER
Local Motive Power Team
Wins: Trenton Victor Over
Baltimore

"Red" Owens and his aggregation
opened the Motive Power League
season at Harrisburg Saturday be-
fore large crowd. Alcorn, who was
selected for mound duty, was in
splendid form, allowing the Quakers
but two hits up until the hnal ses-
sion when he was touched for three
hits with but one down, which netted
the visitors a pair of counters.
Snappy fielding, led by Gerdes, in
this inning settled the proceedings.
Carney was the only one of the visi-
tors who seemed to be in batting
mood, collecting three hits for the
days work.
Trenton remained at thestop of the
heap by defeating Baltimore in a
fast game, to 3. Matthews was
again on the hill and pitched good
game, not being in danger at any
time. The pilfering of second and
third by Wentzel in the fourth frame
unnerved Armiger, who was un-
able to hold the shop team safe af-
ter that inning. The hitting of Spen-
Ger featured Baltimore.
Washington received another
drubbing, being decisively walloped
by Wilmington, 10 to I. The p. B. &
w. boys entirely outclassed the Sena-
tors, total of 20 hits being earned
off the delivery of the three slabmen
used by the Ivy City manager.
The opening clash at the Federal
League Park at Newark resulted in
Meadows downing New York, s to 4.
Timely and consistent hitting in the
early periods gave the Meadow boys
a lead that the Gothamites were un-
able to overcome. The stick work
of Mcdonald for New York and the
all-around work of Maybaum and
Pollock featured the contest. The
local score follows:

Reading Boy Tells of
Attacks by U-Boats

Reading. Aug. 15.-Morris Silver
man, of this city, was on board a
United States warship that acted as
one of the conveys to the transports
that took the first American con-
tingent to France. In a French port
he fell from a dizzy height to the
deck and his leg was broken. He
was taken to the American Hospital
and this delayed the start of the ship
for America three days.
Silverman, who arrived here to-day,
tells of the attack of a German sub
marine on the American conveys and
transports. He says that on the re-
turn a second attack was made. This
was at night. The gun captain of
a warship made the discovery about
10 o'clock. Like the first attack. the
second proved a failure.
In speaking of the landing of the
troops, Silverman said that the French
hailed the soldiers with the greatest
enthusiasm, showering them with
many dainties and flowers. He was
particularly enthusiastic over the
pretty girls. He spoke in the high
est manner of the efficiency with
which the entire movement of the
troops was handled He dwelt upon
the conduct of the officers towards
the men. saying that. at all times,
the officers were most considerate of
the welfare of the troops and seamen.

I'VE sent a committee to Washing

that three years of war have not yet

serve" Turning to the Stockholm
question. M. Thomas admitted the diff
1culty, while French and German SOL
diers are killing each other at the
front. for French Socialists to meet
the German Socialists and discuss in
safety conditions of peace. He dwelt
llengthily on the widespread sentiment
he found during his visit to Russia
against imperialist aims, even among
simple soldiers. Such sentiment made
It advisable for the French to go to
Stockholm to express Frances anti
Imperialism. The declaration of the
German majority Socialists that AL
sace-Lorraine must remain German
made their presence at Stockholm i'm
possible.
