WILSON NOT FOR
ABANDONMENT OF
COLLEGE SPORTS
Outlines Views in Letter to
New York Newspaper
Men
(By Associated Press.l

Washington, May 23.-Wholesale
abandonment of college and school
athletic sports during the war is not
advisable, President Wilson believes,
not because of their value to divert
the American people, but because they
contribute to the national defense. In
a letter to Lawrence Perry of The
New York Evening Post, made public
yesterday, the president said:
II would be sincerely sorry to see
the men and boys in our colleges and
schools give up their athletic sports,
and l hope most sincerely that the
normal course of college sports will be
continued as far as possible, not only
to afford a diversion to the American
people in the days to come when we
shall no doubt have our share of mental
depression, but as a real contribution
to the national defense. for our young
men must be made physically fit in or
der that later they may take the place
of those VINO are now of military age
and exhibit the vigor and alertness
which we are proud to believe to be
characteristic of our young men,"

Two bases on balls. Muench's double,
WotelPs triple and an error by Adam
Debus, who booted a hard drive by
the eighth and ninth innings, spelling
the last game of the Warren series at
league park Tuesday afternoon.
Fargo Moorhead had scored one run
in the first, which Warren had tied up
in the fourth.
Delbern, on the hill for Warren, had
everything, holding the heavy hitting
Fargo Moorhead crew to four scatter
ed hits, and tanning ten. His control
was nearly perfect.
Only once did Delbern find himself
in trouble, that time being in the
fourth inning. With two men on,
Turner hit fast one to Bohlman, who
threw to Muench, catching Haley at
second. Muench threw Turner out at
first, making double play. The
Warren defense was tight as a drum
after that.

TRAP SHOOTING MORE
POPULAR THAN EVER.
PHIL MlLLER'S OPINION.
(Rv Associated Press1

Kansas City, Mo-, May 23.-Neither
the war nor increasing prices of am
munition threaten the elimination of
trap shooting tournaments in the
opinion of Phil Miller. national pro-
fessional champion last year. He be-
lieves that home guard companies, be-
ing organized throughout the country,
should take up practice at the traps, as
such experience would fit them to cope
successfully with possible riots or SIM
liar trouble.
There seems to be no dampening
of the ardor for the shooting game, de-
spite the fact that ammunition prices
have increased fifty per cent or more
in the last two years." Miller said.
MANY country clubs are taking up the
sport, installing traps, and new shoot
ing clubs are springing into existence
every week. Comparison OF the entry
lists of the tournaments this year with
those of last does not indicate any
diminution in the popularity Of the
game"

LASTING PEACE
Will Be RESULT
OF PRESENT WAR
Prediction Made by Former
Governor L. B. Hanna in
Moorhead Tuesday
LOYAL GERMANS
OF NORTH DAKOTA
Are Subscribing Freely to
Liberty Loan War Bond
Issue

THE result of the war will be a
lasting peace brought about by the ma
tions of the world to enforce peace"
was the prediction made by L. B.
Hanna, former governor of North Da-
kota, at a meeting Of the Mems club
of Trinity Lutheran church. Moorhead,
last evening.
The meeting was held at the resi-
dence of Mr.. and Mrs. G. G. Dosland,
and Mr.. Hanna first spoke of pioneer
life in the northwest. He has recently
been in the western part of North Da-
kota in connection with the Liberty
loan campaign. and expressed his APP
probation of the spirit of loyalty
shown by the Germans of that section.
They have subscribed literally to the
war bond issue.
Mr.. Hanna laid particular stress
upon the statement that the present
war is between democracy and autoc-
racy, and that the contest has been
continued through the ages by the
people against the monarchs and the
form of government they represent.

CHIEF MALVEY SEXES
242 PINTS OF WHISKEY
At Great Northern Express Office
On Ten John Doe
Warrants.

Chief of Police Peter e. Melvey
seized 242 pints Of whiskey on John
Doe warrants at the Great Northern
express Office, Moorhead, on Tuesday
afternoon.
The shipments were made to un-
known parties, none of the ten al
legged consignees being known locally.
The warrants charged John Doe with
running an unlicensed drinking place,
and the seizure was made on the
ground that the ten John Does were
using the Great Northern express Of
fee as a storage place.
There is no charge against the ex-
press company or it's agent. Neither
is there evidence Of collision on the
part of either.
This case brings up questions that
were not raised in the case against
the Northern Pacific that was decid-
ed recently in the Minnesota supreme
court.
If any of the parties to whom the
whiskey was shipped want it they will
have to make application to Chief of
Police Melvey at the Moorhead police
