Fritz Maisel, the diminutive speed merchant of the Yankees, has had little opportunity to perform in the infield at the Macon training camp thus far, but what he has done has been accomplished in such style that at present there is little doubt he will be the Yankees next second baseman. He is faster than ever, his arm is as good as it was before he came cropper, and as he will be better satisfied with an intield assignment it is safe to say he will put forth the best at his command to win the place.

Deming, New Mexico.
I am sure you'll have no trouble
getting the Y. M. G. A. funds If the
people realize what it's for. I don't
know great deal about them as they
are used almost entirely by the enlist
ed men, but it's great thing to them.
There are five Y. M. C. A. buildings
at this camp and they are a great
comfort to the boys. There is no
other place they can sit around and
visit with each other except in their
tents and they are usually filled up
with their cots and clothing.
was in one the other day and they
had U. S. Literature on the tables and
believe they have them in all the
buildings. The Government does not
furnish them any money so it all has
to come out of the special funds raised
from the people. I'm sure If the faith
ers and mothers of the boys in camp
knew what these recreation halls
meant to their sons, they'd give free
ly. The Government gives the boys
all the absolute necessities but cannot
furnish anything more and it's the
Y. M. c. A. that helps give them few
luxuries. Always packed. They fur
nish the boys stationery and have a
lot of tables for them to write at.
They have good moving pictures,
vaudeville stunts, boxing matches, lec-
lures or band concerts every night
for the men and are we'll populated.
In fact, that's the only place the men
have to read and write and get to-
gether.
It is a very good movement.
