v. Il. A. RAISED OVER
1000 LAST YEAR
Splendid Showing Made at
First Annual Meeting
of Organization.

The Woman's Hospital Associa.
ton held the first meeting of the
year 1917 yesterday afternoon at the
\. NJ. G. A. building. Reports OF the
years work were read, plans made
for the work for the ensuing year
and officers named to serve during
the year.
The organization, which was per-
lected a year ago, has grown to be
one Of the most influential charitable
organizations of the city. its influence
reaching far beyond the confines OF
Cook hospital.
The hospital association was Or
eanized as an adjunct to the hospital
for the purpose of aiding in furnish
ing and equlpping the institution, TO
look after the building, to care for
needy patients, to furnish flowers and
reading matter and perform other
similar services to patients and in
every way to look toward the better
ment OF the institution. The reports
submitted yesterday showed how adj
ilirably the women have proved true
10 the trust and that they are still
banded together in the interest of
this public institution.
Various schemes have been foster
cd whereby funds have been received
to aid in this work, the most effective
( enc having been Tag Day which was
observed last April when the sum of
$923.42 was netted. So successful
was this Tag Day" observance that
II was made an annual affair and in
May OF this year this day will again
be observed. The women hope that
: the returns from this Tag Day OBJ
servance will be SO great that they
will not be forced to resort to any
other plans TO secure money with
which to carry forward their work.
The fire of December is, which
badly damaged Cook hospital, also
damaged portions of the furnishings
and equipment which were furnished
by the organization, and this must be
replaced as the repairs on the build
ing progress. Largely through the
efforts of the women the building was
reelected, the kitchen almost COM
pletely equipped, the lined closets
refurnished, the sun parlor furnished
and the larder supplied with fruits
and jellies and other supplies.
Following the reports of the vari-
Gus organizations, officers were NAM
ed. with the exception of slight
change in the secretaryship the Off
GERS are the same as served the or
ganization so effectively last year.
They are as follows: President, Mrs.
Clyde E. Hutchinson; first vice presi-
dent, Mrs. T. 1. Brett; second vice
president, Mrs. George DeBolt; sec.
rotary, Mrs. L. d. Howard; assistant
secretary, Mrs. j. Walter Barnes;

Chicago. Oct. 12.--The struggle be-
tween the New York Giants and the
Chicago White Sox enters into the
closing stage of the baseball campaign
here tomorrow, with the fifth game of
the world champion series at COmis-
key park. Each club has won two
victories and the club that wins two
of the remaining three games earns
the championship.
The Giants came to town late to-
day clipper and confident that they
would win the baseball supremacy by
trimming the White Sox on their own
grounds and then putting over the
fourth victory in New York next
Monday.
New York pitchers are in fine fettle
and have had plenty of rest. Sallee Is
regarded as tMcGraw's choice tomor-
row. but If the weather continues
cold, Perritt may be chosen. McGraw
has found. though. that the Sox do
not take kindly to lefthanders and
some of the Giants believe that the
plan is to ''southpaw" the Sox to de-
feat.
The White Sox came back home on
a special train tonight undiscouraged
ny lIlc uDSct III 4sc" Vim. A"SS 6sN "
full credit to "Rubc" Benton for his
work in Wednesdays game, but could
not understand why they did not make
any progress against Schupp's fast
curves The SoX seemed to think
Benton always will be hard proro-
sition, but helieve either Sallee or
Schupp will run to cover if they go
against them again.
Eddie Cicotte said tonight he was
ready to work tomorrow If called on
and "Rcb Russell, a left handler. is
fairly begging Manager Rowland for
chance to face the Giants. Russell
told everybody on the train that all
through the National league season
the New York club had it's troubles
whenever q good lefthander showed
speed and curves.
Manager Rowland said tonight that
he had not made up his mind as to
the pitcher for tomorrow's game.
Joe Jackson insisted that the Sox
batting slump was only Of two days
duration and that the Sox' back
fences would come in for lombard
ing once the club was under way

the weather man gave a cheering fore
cast of fair and cold" and there was
a winter nip in the air. The Ma
tional commission sent out word that
the game would be played unless Il
rained or showed or an unusual cold
wave prevented.
Seats for the game sold high. FIT
teen dollars was paid for IA box seat
and $40 was asked by the spectators
! for the grandstand. Late tonight q
shivering line of fans gathered at the
gates of the unreserved stands. Fires
were lit and men wrapped themselve:

directions brought hundreds to town

GREAT CHANGE
IN BRITISH
ADMIRALTY
New Reform Supposed to be
First Step in Reorganization
Of Admiralty

LONDON, Aug. 7.-(Delayed) is
officially announced by the admiralty
that Sir Cecil Burney. second sea
lord, has been replaced by vice ad.
miral Sir Roselyn Wemyss. Alan Gar.
rett Anderson, hitherto vice chairman
Of the wheat commission is to succeed
Sir Eric Campbell Geddes, the new
flrst lord of the admiralty, as con-
troller OF the naval construction.
These recent changes in the British
admiralty are attracting much atten.
ton and are interpreted as the first
step in the reorganization which, IL is
supposed, Sir Eric Campbell Geddes
was appointed to carry out. In quar-.
ters where the existing admiralty
methods are regarded as unsatisfac'
tory. the present step is denounced rs
"procrastinatory half measures and
it's declared change ought to be SO
complete as to give the country q
resolute and energetic admiralty, per
meated by an offensive spirit"
