N. Y. u. Football Team
Loses Eustis as Coach

Coach Eustis, who has been guiding
the fortunes of the New York Uni
versity football eleven since the oegin-
ming of the season, has been called TO
the aviation service Of Uncle Sam.
Despite the fact that the Violet has
now lost both the majority OF its stars
and the head coach Of its team, the
football schedule will be played
through. Hopes for the future of the
eleven will now centre in the coaching
of Eustis's assistant, Frank Wall.
Next Saturday is an open date in
the football schedule, which the man
agement is trying to fill. The most
likely opponent will be Rensselaer,,
which team defeated the Violet last
Saturday at Troy
Gilloon, end, and Wurth, halfback,
were held out CT the fray last Satur-
day on account Of injuries. Hammer
schlag and Groepler are on the ineligi-
BILE list. II is expected that all these
men will be ready to play Saturday.

Good" said Mr. Cobb, looking at
the authors name "Why, nothing he
writes is good. II you knew the fela
himself you would never say his stuff
was good. He is the chestiest, most
upstage guy you ever saw"
And this kept up until Mr.. Cobb had
convinced this guy that my stuff was
no good, which, of course, is ridicu-
lous.
Letter to McGraw
This guy then asked US how to go
about it to get the privilege of making
speech at the Polo Grounds on the
same subject he talked about through
a megaphone before the first game out
there, the subject nobody understood.
So we told him to ask Sid Mercer TO
give him letter to Manager McGraw
ard that should fix him.
Just at that moment an A. D. T.
boy came in and asked for this ridicu-
lous copy.
II thought the Giants would get
licked" said he. "They haven't been
any good since 1905, way back in the
eighties"
And he talked so much and looked so
impatient that a person couldn't write
anything, but a person can remember

The highly elated White Sox have
lived up TO all advance notices, plus
a trihe on the side They have produced
one star pitcher and another steady
workman. They have backed up their
pitchers in brilliant style, and beyond
all this they have hit the ball. Where
Jackson and Weaver paused on Satur-
day they came back Sunday with six
hits out Of seven trips up.
Buck Weaver's Sunday exhibition OF
three hits and thirteen accepted
chances at short was world series
classic, one of the great all around ex-
hibitions Of the decade. The Sox dis
played unexpected strength in their
violent assault upon Ferd. Schupp, one
of the hardest lefthanders IN the game
to beat.
II the Chicago club continues its
headlong smash there'll be nothing 70
it. OF course, the Sox have put the
winning wallop on display, and only
Giant revival, reaching its mos. i'm

A FUTILE ATTACK

The selectiye service law was moi
proposed and enacted before its con
stitutionality had been passed upon
by recognized authorities on constitu
tional law both in and out Of con.
gress. In some parts Of the country
the law is being attacked in the courts
on the grounds that it is in violation
OF the organic law Of the nation but
there is little or no prospect that such
suits will amount to anything. Under
the terms of The constitution congress
has power to provide for the common
defense" and it is certain that this
power would not have been conferred
without carrying with it the necessa.
ny means for making it effective. Of
course, able lawyers employed bv
those opposing the law will present
an imposing array Of argument
against it but this fact will signify
nothing more than that bright attor-
hey can make showing for any eli.
ent whose case he takes.
