Michigan Is Hard Hit
BY Late Call to COlors

Ann Arbor, Mich, Dec. 24.-Just
as University Of Michigan students
were beginning to smack their lips
over the prospects for highly sue
cessful return to conference football
circles in 1918, three 1917 stars an
nounced their intention of joining
the Government service for the eX-
termination of the Hun. Unless this
years freshman eleven turns in val
liable material the Wolverines Will
not cut the capers they intended.
Tank Weiman, the powerful line
plunger and tackle. was the first to
rally to the flag. He has made ap-
plication for admission to the avia-
tion section.
Cliff Sparks, one of the craftiest
quarterbacks Yost ever has devel-
oped, followed suit. Sparks was go
ing to enter the Navy, but changed
his mind when Weiman went to the
flying corps.
Weston, another quarterback, who
understudied for Sparks in many of
the games because of Cliffs early
season injury, is the third candidate
for Uncle Sans great team.
Both Weiman and Sparks were
eligible for the captaincy, and their
loss will be a serious blow. Around
them Yost was TO build his next ag-
gregation.

Major Leaders Differ on
World Series Cash Divvy

Chicago, Dec. 24.-The committee
consisting of Ban johnson, president
of dhe American League, and August
Hermann, chairman of the National
Commission, appointed at the recent
conference here of the club owners
of the major leagues to revise the
system of dividing the receipts of the
worlds series among the players
tentative plans.
One plan, said to be favored by
Johnson, would allow only the teams
finishing in the first division to share
in the receipts, the amount to be
fixed by the position in which they
finish. The other, said to have been
suggested by Hermann, would divide
the players share of the money
among the first seven teams, leaving
only the tail-enders without portion
of the big stake.
Whether either of the proposed
plans will be approved or whether
the old system of permitting only the
two teams engaging in the series to
have share will remain in force,
must be determined by further con-
ferences, it was said.
The idea of letting others than the
champions of their respective leagues
participate in money derived from
the annual event is brought forth,
1T was said, for the purpose of stimu-
lating ball players to give their best
efforts to the end of the season, even
though their club may have no
chance for a pennant.

Weeghman Visits St. Louis
After Roger HOrnsby

st. Louis, Mo. Dec. 24.-What is
expected to be another thrilling base
ball deal is believed to have been ar
ranged here last Saturday between
Sharles Weeghman, of the Cubs, and
Branch Hickey, of the Cardinals. The
TWO baseball magnates were in con-
ference for several hours and Weegh-
man smiled when he received this
question:
We'll. how much did YOU pav for
Roger Hornsby?" Weeghman's reply
was: Il haven't landed him as vet
This is the first time Weeghman
has been in st. Louis in more than
year and it is doubtful if he would
mako this unexpected trip fust for
the sake of a sightseeing expedi-
tion.
Until the Cubs boss purchased AL
eXander and Killifer from the Phil
lies the fans doubted the sincerity of
Weeghman's plunges. Now they be-
lleve in him and are ready to expect
anything in the way of big deals.
Where the Cardinals could receive
prohtable exchange with the Cubs
Tor Hornsby the local rooters cannot
see.
Weeghman said that he expected
to close a deal with the Giants for
Charley Herzog some time next week
so Hornsby and Herzog will be quite
Christmas present in the Cubs
stocking.

Swarthmore Inventor
Called by the U. S. to
.' Finish U-Boat Device

Philadelphia, Dec. "a. - Experj-
menting for year with an invention
aiming at the destruction of sub
marines, Professor Harvey C. Hayes,
head of the physics department of
Swarthmore College, has been so
successful that he has received a
call from the United States govern
ment to enter the national service.
He refused yesterday to discuss par
ticulars of his new venture, adding
that he has been forbidden to dis
close the location of the laboratory
where he is to continue his research
work.
Professor Hayes will be Joined by
five other physicists from the best
universities and laboratories in the
country in the government research
work. They will commence on Janu-
ary.-l l. Professor Hayes expects TO
be engaged IN this service for year
at least. and it is unlikely that he
will return to Swarthmore at the
opening of the next term in Septem-
Der. Is tdmily will accompany him
to the site of the laboratory.
Professor Hayes was in his fourth
year as a member of the faculty of
Swarthmore College. Previous to his
service in the physics department he
was an instructor in research work
at Harvard, where he took his doc
tors degree. The vacancy caused by.

President Tener Awards
Safer to Pittsburgh Club

Pittsburgh, Pa, Dec. 24.-President
Barney Dreyfuss. of the Pittsburgh
baseball club, has just received word
from John X. Tener, president of the
National League, that he had award
ed to the Pittsburgh club Vic Safer,
late first baseman of the Chicago
club, over whose services the two
clubs had been in dispute. Dreyfuss
claimed SAFER last year when it was
announced that he had been released
by Chicago, but when the local club
sent Safer a contract he refused to
sign, saying he was being paid by
the Chicago club. He played several
games with the Cubs at the close
of the season.
The matter was threshed out at the
meeting of the league two weeks ago
in New York and the issue left to
Tener, who made known his decision
last night. Then Dreyfuss was asked
what he would do about paying Safer
and he said:
TT all depends on how he and
Mollwitz shape up at the training
camp, and as to what Manager Bez-
dek thinks of the two men. We may
make a trade that will give us at
least one or the other for our first
base position. However, there is time
enough for that

turn to major league work. The con-
tracts will be sent to all players not

patrons like clean sport and the
game Saturday night was up to the
standard.
With the new year local shooters
hope to show activity in live bird
contests. Officials of. the Harrisburg
Sportsmen's Association are now
outlining the years program. The
annual state event will take place in
this city on February %.
Members of the local Sportsmens
Association, and the Pennsylvania
Railroad Gun Club are looking
around for new grounds. Both fields
are now within the city limits. In
quiries are now being made as to
whether special action by council is
necessary to permit shooting contests
until other fields are secured.
AS long as building operations do
not interfere, it is the general belief,
there will be no harm to continue the
shooting matches on the fields now
occupied. 1t is also probable that
fences may be erected which will
make the sport still more safe.

Twenty Years on Gridiron
Record of Bob Marshall

Twenty years of football. Not only
that but twenty years a star.
That is the unusual record of Bob
Marshall, who in 1904, '05 and '06
was a member of the Minnesota foot
ball team To-day Marshall, who is
a co1ored athlete. is playing with the
Minneapolis Marines, q semi-profes-
sional eleven. In 1897 Marshall first
played the game with Minneapolis
Central High School football team.
After leaving high school Marshall
went to the University of Minnesota,
and soon developed into one of the
greatest ends Minnesota ever had
Probably the highest point in Mar
shalPs career as a gridiron player
was in 1906, in the game between
Minnesota and Chicago, when his toe
gave Minnesota one of its most mem
orable victories. Minnesota defeated
Chicago, 4 to 2, and it was a field
goal that give the Gophers victory.
The ball on his kick hit the bar and
bounded over.

COLLEGE MEN
MEET THURSDAY
nan nn, -. 7 E SEASON
TO Discuss Sports Outlook; ;
May Favor Cut in Grid
Schedules

New York, Dec. 24.-A meeting of
college graduate managers has been
called at the Hotel Martinique on
next Thursday to discuss the inter
collegiate athletic situation. While
the meeting has no official jurisdic-
ton, it will bring together represen-
tatives of all the colleges for the pur-
pose of outlining some policy in re-
for next year.
the graduate managers may suggest
some curtailment of the football
schedules, as 1t Is understood that
several of the smaller colleges lost
money in football last fall. The sea-
son did not come up to expectations
in many places and college athletics
are in such a condition now that it
would be unwise for any of the in
'stitutions to suffer further losses.
College Baseball
1t is understood that PENNSYLVANIA
will advocate college baseball the
same as last year, although it is not
likely that many of the institutions
will have teams next spring. The
majority of the colleges dropped base
ball last spring, although Penn and
few others played out their sched-
ules. Military training now takes up
so much time that the students at
most of the institutions will not have
even as much time for athletic ac-
tivity as they had last spring.
Invitations to this conference have
been sent to all colleges, and a large
gathering is expected.

CHRISTMAS EVE IN CAMP
There is no dream that could be half so sweet
On Christmas Eve-at twilight-just to drift
10 far-of lands through winters starless beat,
Where in a dream, Times curtains lift
And show the old remembered hearth of home,
And as the dream drifts by, dim wrath wrath,
To anchor there-a straggler from the foam
OF stormy seas that almost wreck ones faith.
There is no dream like this when dusk swings low
On Christmas Eve-when from the wintry gloom
Dim voices come and speak from long ago,
Soft hands reach out-and from the barrack room,
Borne far by tender memories leave
Across the night lost soul is sped,
Until we reach once more the Christmas Eve
We knew before the reeing world turned red.
For know just what the old life meant,
Before the flags of battle were unfurled,
The peace of home the ease, the quiet content
That must have been within another world;
And none will ever know the brooding pain
Until his time has come through waning light,
At Christmas Eve, for arms that reach in vain,
Or vanished voices blown the night.

and ending in the middle nineties.
He was not only a remarkable man
