Although the initial contests in the
Interscholastic Basketball League are
not scheduled to be played until the first
week IN January basketball comment
is rapidly filling the air, and 1t is safe
to say that king Football has been de-
throned and will remain in safe hiding

Eight teams are in the circuit this
season. but the games which the six
high schools and Trades School play
with the School of Pedagogy will not
have any bearing Oh the standing of the
league. The embryo professors will
meet the other teams of the league in
turn. but they will not have a chance to
win the championship.
The Seven teams which will fight it
out for the scholastic league title are

CAMP LEWIS MEN.
ANXIOUS FOR WAR

CAMP LEWIS, Tacoma, Wash,
September 26.--The war-like spirit
and determination mixed with plenty
of American humor We're made plain
today by a study of the writing ON the
sides of cars bringing consoripts here.
A few typical soldier slogans follow:
I'VE eat our Thanksgiving dinner
in Berlin"
''Bcrlin or bust"
God help Kaiser Bill. We won't"
Watch us; we'll make the Ger
mans shake"
Some of the California contingent
seemed much impressed by the arid
ness of WASHINGTON due to bonedry
prohibition. The following legend
was scrawled on the side of one car
from the southern state:
"oi, 90! dat vas yum damn dry
country"
Plans are being completed here to-
day for the amusement park which
will be erected near the camp. Nov
ing pictures will be one of the prin-
cipal amusements for the men.
The thousands of baseball fans We're
much disappointed when word was
received from Charles Comiskey, of
the Chicago Americans, that big league
teams cannot come west to play at
eantonment camps.
Men without previous military ex-
perience are picking up the business
of being soldier in fine style, say
the officers. Even men who had
been in the camp only a few days
were conducting themselves with re-
markable military-like bearing, they
say.
