1t is suggested that the next contingent sent to Europe
be located in Russia Under different conditions this
would perhaps be good move but just Americans
would hesitate about sending their boys into battle along
side of soldiers who might shoot them in their mad panic
to hunt the If any of boys to be captured by
the Germans want them at least to have a square
deal and equal show and not to be betrayed the
battlefield 1t would doubt hearten such of those Rus
slams making desperate fight to whip the
hordes of Russia into shape but the risk is too great
Even the sending of munitions to Russia is only round
about way of shipping to Germany--for the Teutons
eventually get them all by capture or later

enactment of the law making capital punishment the pen

Lacking a captain and with but three veterans and one substitute of last years team returning, the Uni versity of Colorado's football machine this year faces some of the heaviest schedules in the Rocky Mountain Con ference. Eddie Evans. who last year led Colorado's elevn, now is in France. His successor probably will be selected from among the limited field of returning former players. These comprise Will Adams of Boul- der and William Williams of Ebert, Colo, last years tackles; George Cos tellO of Denver, who is subject to call by the hospital corps at any time, last years halfback; and Eastman. a sub stitute end last year. Eastman is from Boulder. Adams is the only one of the quartet who has played more than one year on the team.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. l9-Sid Co will, the Australian swimmer who. with his brothers originated the crawl stroke now so universally used in speed tests, states that the difficulties of the stroke have been very much exaggerated and a wrong conception given it by a number of writers who have tried to explain it.
 As a matter of fact, to it's simpli- city is due the speed which can be got. ten out of it. There is no extra mo- tion, according to Cavill Much stress, he says, has been placed upon the action of the legs and feet, where as, these take care of themselves. The power and propelling force lies practically in the arms and the motion Of the legs is more of a stabilizer than anything else. They keep the body flat along the surface of the water.
 One of the principal tricks of the stroke which the learner must mas ter consists in knowning just when to breathe. The position of the body brings the water up to the eyes, the mouth and nose being submerged. A little instruction in regard to this quickly show the beginner the mo- ments during the stroke when the breath should bs sxhalsd and inhaled.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 21.--College football coaches have come upon evil days as a result of the great WET and are being put to it to find material available with which to mould some kind of a gridiron machine. With the transfer of all the stars from the ranks of the colleges into the rank and file of the army and navy. the former have been getting some first class drub- pings at the hands of the latter in their early practice games.
 A navy unit located near here which has recruited some of the brightest stars in the Pacific coast football fir mament recently, gave the University of California a severe trouncing, and other college teams which are schedul- ing games with the various arms of Uncle Sam's service find that they are lining up against players who, in the natural course of events, would have been the main supports of the college elevens.
 In view of the fact, however, that practically all of the collegiate teams are struggling under the same disad- vantages, they will be on even terms when they meet anu interest in the schedules announced apparently has not abated. Especially is this so, in asmuch as championships will be in volved as in normal years. Thus the annual contest between the Univer- sity of California against the Univer- sity of Washington and the University of Oregon are, expected to draw quite as large a crowd as in past years With the veterans of the last two in stitutiOns named out of the running, California, without any veterans of the American game, due to its recent re- turn to the Intercollegiate game from the Rugby ranks, is considered to have a better chance of winning.
