ern Virginia and District of Columbia
independent championship series. Rex
A. c. will play the Alexandria County
team at Clarendon Sunday afternoon,
and the Alexandria Cardinals will
meet the Athletics at Columbia Park,
Fifteenth and H streets northeast.
These will undoubtedly be hotly con-
tested games as Clarendon and the
Cardinals. now tied for first place, will
endeavor to keep in the lead, while
the two Washington teams will try
just as hard to better their positions.
When these same teams met in the
opening games of the series, the Ath-
ietics and Clarendon were winners.
Pete Hersperger. who has been doing
great work for the Purcellville team,
will twirl for Clarendon and will be
opposed by either Bischoff or Phelps.
Manager Mcdonald, OF the Cardinals
will use either Risdon or Quayle with
Manager Blanton himself as the prob
able twirleF for the Athletics.

The Bush Towns are a shine:

But Ty Cobb is a Royston boy

And Mathewson's from Factoryville,
And Crawford from Wahoo.
The Big League towns build up the

artist OF today. not because of his
pugilistic career. but because he has
shown the way for other athletes and
has taught them that this great war
for democracy should have fighting
men such as this French lad.
This light heavyweight king enjoys
visions of greater opportunities for
fame and fortune than any pugilist
that has stepped onto the padded
canvas. as he has not only proven that
he is battler with the padded mitts
but has shown to the followers of
the puSilistic game and others. that
fighters can do more battling in the
var for democracy than the ordinary
civilian.
Carpenter has proven to the fistic
world that he ranks among the real
champions, and when Civen the op-
portunity to battle in other felds ex-
Cepting the roped ring he gladly
volunteers. Georges went in for honor
and principle and worked his way
to such an extent in this great war
with his aviation feats that he rs
today lionized by all French people
America has long looked for the ar
rival of GeorEes Carpenter in this
country as the populace not only
desire that he should show his fistic
ability but they know him as a real
hero and America loves real heroes.
Carpenter has proven to the world
that he is a real champion. as he has
a sure punch which has toppled the
best of them and he is willing to
meet the cream of the puglistic world
of America.
He docs not wrangle and dicker for
unreasonable purses and he does not
attempt to detract from the fighting
reputation of any of his challengers
by refusing to meet them inside of
the ropes. but there are greater things
in the world war in sight for Georges
outside of puglistic career. And this
Frenchman is an example of real
heroism for all American athletes.

Plan Big Football Boom
At Rutgers as War Aid

New Brunswick. Aug. 23.-Foot-
ball will have a bigger boom than
ever at Rutgers this year. but it
will be distinctly a side issue to
the war. 1t is planned to make the
sport more important than in the
past, but the object will be to pre-
pare the entire student body for
fighting rather than merely to get
a winning team.
This is the plan of Coach George
Foster Sanford, who is heart and
soul in back of football as a way
preparedness measure. There will
be no paid coaches at the college
this year, and while travelling ex-
penses and other extras" probably
will be cut. it is likely that the
football budget will be even larger
than before because of the in
creased number of men who will
participate.
