WOULD BE VALUABLE
Baseball Pitcher Worth Weight in
Radium in Trenches.

Baseball is the only sport in the
world that fits a man for the grim
work midst the mud and blood of the
European trenches. A great pitcher
would be worth his weight in radium
to the armies on the western front,
where hand grenades are in constant
use"
This statement comes from Paul
Verdier, prominent merchant of
France, who is in the United states
now on a furlough from the trenches
"Trench warfare turns men into
moIes, and the average athlete grows
soft with inaction," he adds. Bomb
throwing is now the only athletic &c
tiyity that remains. Here the base
ball pitcher, OF course, Is supreme

Army and Navy Props open up theiI

Props are expecting a one-sided vic

The Props will engage the Episco

Won First Game.
In winning over Eastern by 16 to 10
yesterday, Western won its first
league contest. The westerners have
improved in passing and teamwork,
but appear woefully weak in basket
shooting.
Eastern looked to be basket shy dur
ing the contest, as many easy shots
at the ring were missed. The West
erners shot time after time in the
clear for the basket, but were unable
to make the ball drop safely.
The score should have been well
over thirty points for both teams had
even half the shots at the basket
made good. Both teams displayed

The play of the guards yesterday
was especially praiseworthy. Heron

Western won in the last few min

It's President Hickey's plan to

EVANS WON'T GO
National Amateur Champion May
Have Been Given Advice.

1t would appear that Chick Evans,
the golf champion, is not going to
Pasadena. Gal, to teach the Chicago
Cubs to bat while they are training
there In a signed article Evans ipti-
mates that he will be too busy to un-
dertake the herculean, to say the
least, task OF teaching a ball player
to use golf methods in hitting a ball.
From another source comes story
that the officials Of the United States
Golf Association let Evans know that
II he made the trip to Pasadena 1t
would require so much explaining
about the expenses that it might en-
barrass his amateur standing.
The proposition to have the eminent
golfer coach the baseballers was fine
for the winter dopesters, but as prac-
