Limit Of Eighteen
Players Proposed
For Major Leagues

CHICAGO. Nov. 1e.-Eighteen play
ers will be sufficient to win major
league pennant next year is baseball is
resumed and the recommendations
agreed on at a meeting of the National
Baseball Commission here to-day are
accepted by the American and Ma
tional Leagues at their annual meet
ings next month.
President Johnson, of the American
League, and August Hermann, chair
man of the commission, were parti-
cipants in the conference which had to
do with some leftover commission
cases, in addition to discussion of
the methods necessary to restore base
ball in 1919.
The commission decided to inf1ict
severe fines on three members of the
world championship team for playing
exhibition games through the East
after the worlds series with a team
advertised as the Boston Red Sox
Amos Strunk, Joe Bush and Walter
Schang were the players declared to be
guilty of the practice.
The decision to withhold the usual
worlds series championship emblems
from the Boston players because of the
prat they played in the worlds series
Strike" was reaffirmed.

Old Glory Helped to
Make Golf Holf in I

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 16.-Holes in
l on a golf course are rare enough
to be carefully recorded by almost
every organized club, but when Old
Glory has hand in aiding the elusive
ball to drop into the shallow cup it
seems worthy of wider renown Pos
sibly that is the reason for a commun-
cation from j.. w. Abbott, of the Ogden
Golf and Country Club, who attests to
the following facts:
w. H. Watts, a resident of Ogden,
Utah, made a mashie shot from the
fifth tee, destined for the green, 1876
yards away. The ball struck the flag,
which, in this case was the Stars and
Stripes, floating from a twelve-foot
bamboo pole. The national emblem
caught the ball in it's folds, as an ex-
pert spider might trap an unwary fly,
then dropped it like a plummet into
the cup.

Navy Swamps Ursinus
With Record High Score

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Nov. 1s.-The
Mlldshlpmen N simply ran over the
sylvania, here this afternoon. rolling
up record high score for Navy team
and coming within one point of the
seasons score made by Georgia Tech
a few days ago, the final count being
127 to 0.
The visitors were greatly outweiehed
by the Middies but were game to the
last, despite the fact that they were
pretty badly used up.
Navy scored nineteen touchdowns
and thirteen of the resultant tries for
goal were successful
New-York tribune., 1918-11-17

The student soldiers and the Ma
tlonal Army men were playing in aid
OF the United War Campaign Fund. and
some 10000 men and women, aided and
abetted by two brass bands and pent-
up wartime enthusiasm, sent the
echoes booming back from ancient
Coogan's Bluffs in serried waves. The
regiments from both encampments pa
raded before the game, Rear Admiral
Goodrich leading the naval unit from
Princeton, Colonel Pearson heading
the 700 military students and Captain
Hanna commanding the Camp Upton
of Uncle Samuels trick army aviators
did paralyzing stunts in the air over
the field.
Tiger Rests on Laurels
After running up a commanding
score in the first half of the game,
during which she completely outplayed
the Upton men, Princeton sent in q
continual stream of substitutes in the
second half and was content to rest
upon her laurels. Captain Davis, of
Camp Upton, kept driving his men re-
lentlessly however, and in the third
period Earl Yingling, the old Brooklyn
baseball pitcher, was slammed over the
line for Upton's only touchdown. Dunn
kicked the goal. For the rest of the
game the ball seesawed up and down
the field
While not boasting single star be-
fore the game, Princeton brought out
on the field q remarkably smooth scor-
ing machine, and Murray, the Tiger
quarterback. blazed his way into fame
hyyc %o%o
ing one touchdown after brilliant run
of forty-five yards through a broken
field and kicking all four goals from
touchdown. Opie, at left half; Harvey,
at left end, and Whinstein, at right end,
scored the other two touchdowns for
the Tigers
In the opening period it was Murray
who was always the outstanding figure
as the two teams struggled grimly on
the gridiron. He was like a flash in
following the ball, being always on the
alert for fumbles on either side. The
first score came about as the result of
a tumble by Captain Davis, of Upton,
in the first period. Davis muffed the
through the army line, grabbed the
ball and dashed down the field thirty
five yards for a touchdown. The whis-
tie blew with the ball on Upton's IL
yard line.
In the second period Murray tried foy
a field goal from the 20-yard line, and
Upton kicked out of danger from under |
her own goal posts to the centre of the
field. Murray caught the ball. and
while those in the stands rose up and
rent the air with cheers, the flashing
quarterback lodged and wriggled his
path through the entire Upton team,
shaking off three tacklers and making a
touchdown after a brilian run of |
tifty-five yards. He then kicked the
goal.
Princeton Tank Smashes On
Dunn kicked off, the ball rolling back
of the Princeton goal posts, where
Dempsey touched it down. On the next
play Dempsey got around left end for
forty yards, placing the ball on Up
toms 3oyard line. Ope banged off a
yard at left tackle, Wittmer shot
forward pass to Harvey, good for fifteen
yards, and then heaved another to Opie,
who ran twelve yards for touchdown,
and Murray kicked the goal, making
the score Princeton, 2l; Camp Upton, o.
Upton could not hold the hard

Wolverines Roll
Back Syracuse to
Decisive Defeat

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Nov. 16-Tt is
Michigan's turn to laugh now, for this
afternoon the sturdy men of Yost
rolled Syracuse up in ball, kicked it
around the gridiron on Ferry Field
and vaulted to the pinnacle of a Is
10 score.
Three goals from the field and a
touch down, all made by Stekelee, with
cut the resultant goal kicked represent
the margin by which the Maise and
Blue triumphed over the Orange.
Perhaps it was the feeling of con-
tempt that Syracuse held for Michigan
that caused the brave defenders of the
Wolverine states football might to
fight so fiercely that in all events it
was a victory nobly won.
Unmindful of the rain that fell in
sheets throughout most of the after
noon and the natural consequences,
wet ball, poor footing and fumbling,
generated and outgamed the New
Workers.
With the exception of short period
in the third quarter after Michigan
had attained a lead of six points, as
TIE result of two spectacular kicks by
Stekelee from the thirty-five yard line,
the play was constantly in Syracuse
territory. The vaunted toe of Quarter
back Ackley, upon which the invaders
conceded they would depend for scor-
ing, never got the chance to exercise
its idea of direction or power.
In the third period when the visitors
showed a flash of form and compelled
Coach Yost to navigate the side lines
in q state of nervousness, the ball was
within striking distance of the Maise
and Blue goal posts, but always at an
angle too difficult for the Syracuse
kicker to dare try.

Mrs. Geo. De CURE, of Nash, chair
man of the child welfare committee OF
Bayfield, County Council of Defense
is making arrangements for the part
that this county will take in the state
wide test of Wisconsin children. She
has received from the state chairman
on child welfare, instructions to pro-
coed at once with organizing the
work so that in every district of the
county centers will be opened on
April for the weighing and measur-
ing of all children under six years
Of age.
This weighing and measuring of all
children is part of plan to be fol-
lowed all over the United States. 1t
ushers in the beginning of Children's
Year during which the Children's
Bureau of Washington, by cooperating
with the women's Committees of the
Councils of Defense and with all other
agencies having to do with child well
fare, proposes to save the lives OF
100000 children. The recent draft
disclosed the fact that large per cent
of the young men of the country are
suffering from physical defects which
if they had been recognized in early
childhood might have been remedied
Such nation wide test of children
will undoubtedly make for stronger
generation.

A letter was recently received from
Clayton Robinson who left school and
Joined the medical corps. He Is now
at TT. Leavenworth in Kansas, and
sends his best regards to the Wash
burn High school.
A Thrift Stamp Drive is being made
in the High School and it is pro-
crossing very nicely. Every student
is supposed to buy twenty-five cent
stamp if be does not he is considered
a Stacker. We are glad to say that
we have very few that have not bought
stamps and by the time the, drive is
over we hope that we will have 1000
war savers in the High School, $1SS.49
were sold in one and one-half days.
The High School Foot ball team will
begin their spring practice Monday
night after school.
The Animal Husbandry class is
having good luck with the chickens
they are raising. They have seven
young chicks which are growing very
rapidly AS soon as the weather
permits they will be put in coop out
side.
The Musical that was given at the
Walker High School last Tuesday
proved a success. Everyone who at
tended was well pleased. The re-
ceipts, which totaled $62, will be
used for the Junior Red Cross and the
Junior High School piano fund.
$50
Some pupils of the High School go
to the Red Cross rooms every night
to knit for the soldiers. They are
doing their bit, are you?
$50
The High School at last has De-
batting Society. 1t is something
which exists in almost every High
School and we are glad that we also
have one.
A trial debate will be held at the
High School some time in the near
future probably the 10Th of this month.
More members are wanted 1t is hop
ed that enough interest will be shown
so that there will be enough members
from which to pick the High School
Debating Teams. Next year we hope
that debating will take it place among
our school activities just the same
as Athletics and Glee Clubs. The
members up-to-date are: Earl Arsen-
eau, Victor Swanson, Donald Flynn,
Burt Ballard, Jack Maxcy, James
Neatly, Julian Johnson and Charles
Gierczak.
