eettino Out From Under.

IT is probably quite natural that there should be considerable rivalry at Ft Harrison between the student off cers of National Guard training and those with no previous military expe rience, and sometimes stories are told which might not be told if it were not for this rivalry. says the Indianapolis News
 4 young student officer was putting q squad of fellow-students through squad formations the other day of q rather intricate nature and tre pro cess proved to be like climbing roof. It is easy to climb into a perilous posi- ton astride the cone. but difficult to climb down to safety. The young stu dent officer got along very well until he attempted to get his squad back in to ifs original formation. Somehow it wouldn't work out right. Then he cut the knot of his difficulty with one com mand, delivered as sternly as possible.
 "As you were at firstl March :"
 This would not have been told if there had not been several former Ma tional Guardsmen in the squad.

USEFUL SUN-GLASSES
Recommended as Sure Antidote
 for Baseball Muffer.
Catching a Ball Against Blindine Sun Is Not Only Difficult Thing to Do, but 1t Is Extremely ln-
 furious to Eyes.

Many a baseball game has been lost because an outfielder muffed fly ball when the sun got in his eyes; and many baseball player has had to bear up under sharp criticism at the hands of angry spectators when the sun should have been blamed. Catching ball against a binding sun is not only difficult thing to do. but it is extremely injurious to the eyes.
 If they live up to the claims of their inventor, who is none other than Fred Clarke, veteran Pirate manager, the glasses illustrated will enable the player to catch flies in the face of the strongest sun. The glasses are riveted to the peak of the cap and work on hinge. When not needed to shield the eyes, they rest against the cap.
 When a ball is hit the fielder simply touches the rim of the glasses and they fall down in front of the eyes in just the proper position so that he has a chance to see the approaching ball

LIEUT.. O'HARA ON FURLOUGH
Former Cleveland and New York Player Injured in First Line
 Trenches-Has Easy Job.

When in Detroit recently Umpire Billy Evans had visit with Bill O'Hara, former Nap and Giant, who went to the front with the Canadian soldiers two years ago. He now is lieutenant.
 He went to Europe as an aviator, but when something went wrong with his machine and the machine was dam- aged because it hit the ground before Bill intended it should, he became en- gagged in controversy with his supe- rior that resulted in Bill quitting the air corps and joining his countrymen in the trenches.
 They made him commander of squad of barbed-wire repairers and hand grenade throwers. It was fine job, no more dangerous than taking nap on the third rail.
 All they had to do was to put on black suits, blacken their faces and hands, take tools painted black and creep out into mo mans land' to re- pair the barbed wire
 If the Germans sent up a rocket, which they often do to light up the section in front, each Canadian would stand at attention, not daring to let even a knee wobble or a finger twitch If one moved there would be a put put" and another Canadian had passed away upon the battlefield.
 "On several occasions" related Lieutenant O'Hara to Evans "I was one of six survivors of party of 20 that went out from our trenches. And they finally got me-through the thigh and the shoulder. That's why I am back. But I will be back at the front soon, and I hope that within a year some of my old pals from the big | league will be with me-"

Ball clubs look good or bad" says Hank O'Day, "when they are, or are not, hitting. When a club is banging the ball, it seems good both to the crowds and to itself. The boys chirp and chatter; they coach joyously; they make so much noise the umpire can't keep them quiet. Everything is happi- ness and good feeling, and the good feeling spreads to other departments as we'll as the batting
 When a club is on q batting ram- page. it nearly always fields finely. But when a ball club can't hit; when it goes in there day after day and raises lot of pop flies, then there's no life, no pepper, no spirit in that aggrega-

even though he is looking directly at the sun. The glasses cannot fall of, and they can be shifted out of the way with the quickest kind of movement when not wanted-two advantages which make them far superior to the old style of "specks.'
 AS they are not intended to it the bridge of the nose, they should be so arranged on each wearers' cap that when needed they will fall exactly in front of the eyes. The peak of any lightweight cap is strong enough to hold them.-Popular Science Monthly.

league. and is thirty-one years old, more than six feet tall, and weighs about 1S5 pounds. He has been a star pitcher for several seasons, having failed his team only in 1916, when he was suspended late in the season for failure to obey club rules.
 His comeback" from that episode this year has been notable in baseball circles. Latest figures show he has been in fifteen games, winning five and losing four, and giving only 1.63 earned runs a game. He ranks fourth in the league in effectiveness.

tion. It just mopes along. It ire quently slackens in its fielding, and it's pitchers get to working in a dead armed fashion,
 What a world of difference the sound of safe hits can make in the spirits of ball tossersl Empires have long since learned to be merciful with clubs that aren't hitting. An umpire stands lot of gab from any hitless team-he knows their nerves are strained and that they just can't help nagging. It's different when he is deal ing with a crowd of successful hitters They have no reason to kick, and he chases them out in jigtime when they need it."

Ty Cobb has never had horse or cigar named after him.
 The veteran Clyde Milan is the only Senator batting in the 300 set.
 
 Aragon, left fielder for New York, is playing out of position. He is an infielder.
 Germany Schaefer, the veteran play CT, is doing scout duty for the Giants this year.
 Wally Schang of the Athletics hits the ball a terrific blow, but hits in hard luck.
 The Browns and Athletics are hav- ing lot of fun flirting with the cellar championship.
 It's fine thing for 'Dutch" Leonard that the Red Sox pay for pitching and not for batting.
 Bernie Roland. Detroit pitcher, has set back the New York Yankees eight times in a row.
 With Johnny Evers fighting his bat ties for him, Pat Moran thinks he can head off the Giants.
 The main reason that Schupp is such a great pitcher is that he is not left handed in the head.
 Birmingham has a pitcher named Loveless. He ought to be an umpire. Nobody loves an ump.
 Benny Kauff is hitting 315, but the "Violet" is not setting the league on fire, which he vowed he would.
