Tennis Champ
Should Worry
Over New Foe

Reports from California indi-
cate that Miss Molla Bjursted
must look to her honors as ma
tional tennis champion this year.
In recent matches Miss Blur
sted was defeated by both Mrs.
May Sutton Bundy and Miss Mary
Browne.
Although II was admitted that
Miss Bjursted was handicapped
by playing on asphalt courts and
by a high wind, and was not up
to her usual game, still coast ex-
perts remarked that the attack of
both Mrs. Bundy and Miss Browne
would have caused the Norwe-
gian wonder trouble under any
Miss Brownies game particular
ly, 1t Is declared, Is far superior
to any of her former efforts. She
drives the ball harder and her
backhand strokes are superb. She
is also much faster on the courts
than formerly and her impetuous
style completely upset Miss Blur
sted's play.
Whether Mrs. Bundy will enter
the national championship events
this year is still doubtful. Mrs.
Bundy has three children, who
take most of her time, and it was
remarked that in her recent
matches on the coast, although
she defeated both Miss Browne
and Miss Bjursted, that she was
not really in the best of condition.

AMATEURS GIVE
TIGE HARD GAME
Knights of Columbus Make Good Showing Against
Professionals; John Telford Looks Good; Error
Responsible For Two Tiger Runs.

Russ Halls Tacoma Tiger team
came near being shown up by a
semi-pro team yesterday after
noon.
The Knights of Columbus team,
composed of semi-pro players OF
Tacoma, gave the professionals
such a close run for their money
that the Tigers are still wonder
ing how 1t happened. The final
score was 4 to 0, but two of the
Tiger runs were cause by a bad
infield error, so II should have
been 2 to 0.
John Telford, who has
been training with the Tigers
all season and not showing
anything to brag of, was loan
ed to the knights because
their regular twirler didn't
show up. John pitched cir
cles around the Tiger batters.
He showed better form than
mt any time during the train
ing work, not even walking
single Bengal.
d o
Toots Bankhead, lead-off man
on the Tacoma team, swung vic
iously at the first ball Telford
pitched, and sent 1t over the right
field fence. 1t didn't worry John
. bit, though. He came right
back with some pitching that
would brighten most any North
western club.

Watching the
Scorebodrd

Yesterdays big league hero was
Casey Stengel. This outfielder's
quick return of a hit cut off the
run that would have tied the
score and given the Giants a
chance to down the Dodgers again.
It was the Giants first loss and
the Dodgers first victory of the
year.
Roger Hornsby hit a homer,
fielded sensationally and threw In
two other blows for good meas
ure. but the Cardinals lost to the
Cubs.

NAVY ASKS PUBLIC FOR
LOAN OF EYEGLASSES
High-Grade Telescopes, Binoculars
And Camera Lenses Needed
In War On U-Boats

The Navy Department issued an ap-
peal Yesterday to owners OF German
or other high-grade spyglasses, teie-
scopes. camera lenses, and binoculars
to enlist them for the service OF the
navy for the period of the war. IN
der the law these cannot be accepted
free of charge and for that reason II
has been decided to pay dollar Tor
each glass accepted.
The appeal of the Navy for these
glasses took the form of the follow
ing announcement by the Navy De-
partment:
1.-THE Navy Department has receiv-
ed the following letter:
al herewith send you field glass,
wishing to contribute my mite. l
hope it may be of service on one of the
patrol cruisers, and aid in finding
some German submarine. Will be
glad to know it can be put in service
Respectfully. J. F. HEFFLEBoWER.
Sawtelle, CAL
Mr.. Heffiebower is a veteran or the
Civil War, is IA years old, and is
domiciled at the Soldiers Home at
Sawtelle. Ca. His binoculars have
been gladly accepted by the depart
ment, and will be put into immedi-
ate use on an American ship in the
war zone.
This letter has suggested to the
Navy Department the availability OF
| a large number of binoculars. spy
| glasses. and telescopes now in prl-
vate hands throughout the country
The Navy is in need of binoculars,
spyglasses and telescopes. 1t is a
well-known fact that up to very re-
Gently the United States imported
practically all lenses for the better
| class of observation glasses, and even
now the American facilities are not
adequate to supply the greatly in
creased demands for use on the hun
dreds of new ships which are being
| placed in commission. 1t must be
borne in mind that every ship of the
navy and merchant marine requires
many more men on lookout than here
| tofore.
1T is believed that many owners
would gladly turn them over to the
government for use in the war 1t
makes little difference how old these
glasses are as long as they are in
| serviceable condition.
| "They should be forwarded direct
to the Hon. Franklin d. Roosevelt,
Assistant Secretary of the Navy, care
of Naval Observatory, Washington,
ID. c. 1t is requested that a tag bear
ing the name and address of the
donor be securely attached to the
glasses"

KEEP FAITH," SAYS PARRAN
Republicans Must Stick With People
To Demonstrate Their Ability
To Rule.

Thomas Parran, Southern Mary
land statesman. arrived in Baltimore
yesterday, it being his first appear
ance since the election.
Delighted? OF course / am" was
his reply, when asked about the Re-
publican majority in his county.
THE Republicans in Talbot, like
many other Republicans and Demo-
Gratis throughout the State" said
Parran, were displeased at the man
ner in which State officials have been
running things. This, coupled with
united party brought about a splendid
majority am delighted with the re-
suit generally, but want to say one
word to my neutrality-suspicious. and
that is with obtaining the control of
the House of Delegates they have also
assumed most serious obligation.
They will be on trial and every act
viii be watched. 1t is up to the Re-
publicans to fulfill to the letter every
promise made TO the people of the
State in the party platform. The
question of speakership. of course, will
be one Of the first things to be con-
sidered. From a superficial canvass
i believe that either Delegates
Wooden. of Carroll; Tenny, of Wash
ington. or Delaphine, of Frederick
County. would make excellent presid-
ing officers.
Keep faith with the people, will be
the Republican slogan"

NEW DRAFT RULES OUT
All Existing Exemptions and Discharges
Are Cancelled

The new selective service regula-
tions were made public by the Provost
Marshal General yesterday. Supplies
of them have been received by Cover
nors of State, and they will be for
warded to local and district boards at
once for study.
Certain of the regulations go into eff
feet on November 20, while others,
notably those which govern the pro-
cess of selection and classification,
will not go into effect until December
Is.
The new regulations not only re-
peal all preceding regulations, but
cancel all exemptions and discharges
which have been granted by local
boards under the present system.
This will restore every man to his
original status, and the local boards
will send a QUESTIONABLE to every
man who is not in the service
The local boards will send out per
cent of their questionnaires each day
for a period covering twenty days.
This method of distribution will allow
the local boards, with the aid of their
legal advisory boards and other vol
unteers, to instruct, complete. and file
each days QUESTIONABLE without the
confusion and congestion which would
attend the effort to require a larger
number.
One of the noteworthy features. of
the new regulations will be the ap-
pointment of an officer of the Reserve
Corps of the United States Aarmy as
an assistant to the Adjutant General
of each State. This officer will also
be the disbursing officer, and the
financial affairs of the selective serv-
ice system will thus be brought into
intimate touch with the Provost Mar
shall Generals Office in Washington.

"SHIPBUILDING PRIMAL DUTY"
Bowles Hints at Consumption Of Work
men II Other Means Fail,

The United States must speed up its
shipbuilding program or lose the war
and all that depends on it, in the
opinion Of Admiral Francis T. Bowles,
who spoke as the representative of the
Emergency Fleet Corporation, before
the Chamber of Commerce in Phila-
delphia yesterday. Admiral Bowles
intimated that a draft might be re-
sorted to to obtain shipbuilding work
men and mechanics.
IF we cannot produce the ships
that we need,' he said, "by the spirit
of our democracy we shall have to OBJ
tain this vital result otherwise"
Admiral Bowles declared that the
people in this country must be
brought to a realization of the fact
that without ships the armies now in
process of formation would be help
less. He called attention to the fact
that without vessels American fight
ing men could not go abroad or sub
sist after arriving in France and the
other fighting zones.
"Shipbuilding," said Admiral Bow
les, must be regarded as a primal
patriotic duty"
