Although the professional base

less of the war, college baseball
has suffered this year, as most of

The scouts who take an annual

Soldiers.
A soldier isn't hard to find these wild
and warlike days.
He comes from many walks of life, from
wide and varied ways.
Perchance he is a copyboy, perchance
he Is clerk,
Perchance he is lad who comes from
where the presses work.
Perchance he is a printer and perchance
he is bum.
But when the ticker starts to work the
soldiers start to come.
For when the ticker starts to sing it's
springtime baseball tune
An army comes and soldiers half the gol-
darn afternoon.
One way to attract volunteers to the
front would be to install a flock of
tickers in the trenches.
Among the athletes who are trying
to break into army service is Jack
Cannon. A good name for a soldier,
1 calls it.
The Sox look strong this season
aside from the pitching department.
They are almost as weak on the slab
as they are at second base.
Frank Force is not Fred Fulton's
manager any more. In the light of re-
cent events. Fulton doesn't need a
manager.
Ty Cobb's determination to quit golf
for the summer has caused unbounded
surprise in golfing circles. Those who
have watched him on the links never
suspected that he played golf.
Golf, according to Cobb. is not con-
ducfve to the improvement of ones
batting eye. At times, however, when
Walter Johnson is pitching. baseball
resembles a golf ball in size.

Aggies to Continue Sports.

Manhattan, Kan, April 21.-It is

Fate.

Fate,

You probably have heard,
Does his work
In mysterious ways.

Nor ever raised his voice,
Nor tried to prove
An alibi,

Why,
