belief that the bandits, who escaped
In motor car had probably reached
Kansas City. The Kansas City police
have been asked to watch for them. A
merchant who lives on the Jefferson
highway, which runs near the scene
of the holdup, reported that a motor
car loaded with men, stopped in front
of his home early today.
He said the occupants were going
toward Kansas City and seemingly
were lost.
According to postal and express
company employees. the mail and o.
press cars which the bandits detach
ed from the train and later ransackeA.
pielded them only a trivial amount
-Four passengers on the train were
wounded during the shooting which
apparently was INDUCED in by the
robbers in order to intimidate the pas
sengers.
The injured were taken to a hos
pital at Parsons II was thought all
of them would recover.

Two famous athletic entertainers,
Willie Hoppe, billiard champion and
Jess Willard, heavyweight master,
got themselves in very Dutch with
sports yesterday when they declined
to take part in exhibitions for the
War Work Campaign. Hoppe yester-
day defeated George Slosson, former
champion, at Boston, in the first of
a series of exhibition matches for
the benefit of the Red Cross, scoring
500 points to Slosson's 271; 1872
balkline. And yet Hoppe refuses to
defend his title against Welker
Cochran, the Chicago wonder, unless
side bet is arranged of $2,500.
This appears to the sporting fra
ternity as a colossal bit of profiteer-
ing.
Hoppe says that he is willing to
play Curwin Huston, an amateur
whom he could defeat with his eyes
shut and one hand behind his back,
A one-sided match like that would
not draw dollar for the fund. Hop
pc has been making his living from
billiards and the public support of
the same, but he doesn't deserve to
do so any longer, If reports of his at
titude in this matter are true.
AS for Jess Willard, he is willing
| to box for war charities, but not in

Sweet Tooth Of Yankee
Fighting Men Looked +.
After by War Workers

London.-Dragon's teeth sown in
the earth brought forth sreaf crop
of warriors, according to the Greek
mythology tale, but in this year SOL
emn history records that sweet
teeth" produced a bumper crop OF IN
vincible American warriors. Our
fighters in France and those here in
England, resting or training, demand
plenty of candy, and the job OF ap-
peasing this great sweet tooth falls
to the Y. NJ. C. A, the X. of C., the
Salvation Army or the Jewish Well
fare Board of the overseas organiza-
tions represented in the United War
Work Campaign. There is not an
other article in the canteens Tor
which there is so great a demand.
1.-THE biggest moral force any
where is candy" said the Rev. c. P.
Marshall, pastor of the Church of the
Pilgrimage. Salem, Mass, now Y,
M. C. A. secretary in an American
camp in England, and who has had
considerable experience as a social
worker in the L.. S.
"I place candy first among the
things the Y. NJ. c. A. can be of
service in supplying" said MAJOR
Frank Page, son of Walter Hines
Page, formerly Ambassador to Great
Britain, in a recent chat with Y.
NJ. c. A. man. Major Page has re-
turned to America with his rather,
who has been in i'll health.
1t is the universal demand, this
call for candy among the soldiers.
The demand for t cannot begin to be
supplied.
Gum is another commodity dear to
the soldiers. Secretary Fl. Sunde, of
New Richland, Mimi, recently re-
ceived the following earnest letter
from Thomas Morrissey, of the same
TOWN, who had been temporarily sta
toned at the camp in Southern
England, where Mr.. Sunde is located,
and who had later gone to France.
The one thing that bothers me
most is that can't get any chewing
gum in this country. l have tried in
every place / have been and they
don't sem to have any, and we don't
seem to land in place where they
have an American Y. M. c. A. If you
can scrape up a few packages of pep
permint or any kind of gum, send
me some and let me know how much
lit will cost and I will send you the
money"
Mr.. Sunde sent him six packages.

Aviator Bob Myers, Of Camp Hill,
Was Boy on the Burning Deck

One of the football games that
vattracted attention Saturday was
the game between the Naval Pay
masters and the Aviators at Prince

nell, Doclattely of Washington,
Burns of Purdue, Jamison of Prince
ton, Ling of Minnesota, Murray of

tional plays of the game were made
by an unheralded horse from a small
Pennsylvania college. Bob Myers of
Dickinson, who showed up the stars
by making four of the eight touch
downs.
The sailors tried many long for
ward passes, one of which Big JEFF
Potter. of besa f,llabmeahrdluh o
Potter, of baseball fame, caught but
he was so rudely tackled by Myers
that he dropped the ball. This was
the sensational play of the day.
Myers, a native of Camp Hill,

was captain of the Dickinson team
during his senior year and was noted
for his fearless and forceful tackles
He was teaching chemistry and
coaching athletics for the State Nor

ter when he enlisted in the Army,
intending to enter the aviation SER
vice at once; but this was at the
time when there was nothing doing

kept in the observation balloon SER
vice for FIVE months at Camp John
Wise, San Antonio, Texas But with
his football tenacity he stuck to his
main object and was transferred in
