NEW YORK, April 16.-I reports

the Giants participated are worth

violet of the Federal league, stands a
fine chance of enjoying the best seas
on of his career this summer.
When the season ended last Fall
Kauff was showing some of the stuff
that made him a king of batters in
the old Gilmore circuit. He was
whaling away at the horsehide in a
manner that would have soon boosted
his batting average to very near the
800 class. 1t was the result of close

WASHINGTON, April 16.-Enlist-

few days have broken all records in
the history of recduiting. These SOL
diers of the Sea" are making net gains
daily of whole companies and bataf-
ions at their distinctive recruiting sta
tons from coast to coast, according to
reports just ade public. Recruiting Of
ficials consider these increases just a
start, however as knowledge of and
interest in the is "two-in-one" land
and sea service is rapidly growing
Present recruiting actiitives indicate
that the Marine Corps will reach it's
newly authorized strength in the
Sarly summer
The desire of red blooded Americans
to be the first to take shot at peri
scope and the realization of the fact
that we need marines as well as sub
marines, at this time, is responsible
for this material increase in Marine
Corps recrpiting, according to govern
ent officials here. Join the Marines

late action!' is the popular slogan.
