Keep an Eye on Him!

II T will be wise to keep an eye on Mexico.
4 Carranza's attitude toward the United
States has always been that OF a fellow who
would like to do something ugly, If it were
at all safe He has not yet expressed him
self on Zimmermans proposition to stab
Uncle Sam in the back as an ally OF Ger
many.
II should not be forgotten that he prevented
our combined regular and militia forces from
getting his chief enemy, Villa, upon pain OF
a union OF all Mexico against us.
We still hold to our recent suggestion that
there should be strong home guard organiza-
ton in our border states-New Mexico, Ari-
IONA, Texas and California. We should not
be in shape to have a Carranza jump OH
our backs and find the riding good.

1t Is pretty well known that the
American league will take no further
action looking toward a change In the
plans for the worlds series. At It's
last meeting it decided that at the
games played on American league

double what they are for regular

NEW AMATEUR TEAM
FOR WEST OTTAWA
ct. FRANCIS DRAMATIC AND ATH-
lETiC CLUB WILL HAVE STRONG
TEAM--GOSS.P WITH OTHER
AMATEUR CLUBS.

Whether We have semi-pro. baseball
here or not, the st. Francis Dramatic
and Athletic Club bid fair to offer a
good brand Of baseball for the fans.
The ST. Francis Dramatic Club is very
we'll known, but you viii notice that
Athletic Club hasbeen added to the
above title, and 1t is right that 1t
should be, for the parishioners OF Rev
Millcr's parish will have ball team.
Suits have already been purchased
and were used a few weeks ago IN
their first indoor game.
Father Miller's team will be as fast
as any amateur aggregation in the
county. Vallat, star second sacker
for the Federal Plate team and
pitcher Of no mean ability, will do the
slab work. Vallat was the best bet
OF the high school pitching staff last
year and possesses plenty of speed
and curves, enough to get him by in
any Of the amateur circles.
Fiesel, a youngster, will act as a re
ceiver. The lad has a corking good
whip and has control of all base run
ners. As a hitter he punches the pill
in the 800 class. In the intield Bill
Mulholland, Everett Dougherty, John
Kelly, Heiser, Mates and Schiffgens
will try out. In the outfield Roser,
Hossack and Maierhofer will try for
places. host OF othe candidates
will endeavor to land positions on the
team, and tho fastest nine that can be
chosen will BIO selected to represent
the west side parish.
Father Miller Is taking personal
interest In the sport and will arrange
the playing schedule for the young
sters The West Ottawa Park, COM
monty known as Sand Burr" will be
used by the new team.

But with the organizing of the St.
Francis Dramatic and Athletic Club 1t
looks as II the Zephyrs will not put
team In the field. II will be noticed
that Bill Mulholland. the leader OF
the zephyrs in the past few years, is
listed with tho West Ottawa team.
The Zephyrs at one time were the
best amateur team In the county. Dis.
sension among the players is believed
to have caused the disbandment of the
team.
