3.-In the passing Of Martin Luther
Stuart, who succumbed to an opera |
tion resulting from influenza-pneumo-
MIA in Camp Hancock, our section loses
one of it's most talented young men.
Mr.. Stuart was man of most remark
able business ability. Prior to his
leaving for the camp he held u very
responsible position with large to-
bacco comany. At one time he spent
couple or three years in Turkey,
managing their interests there. He
had Travelled extensively, being IN
| the Dardanelles at the time of the
| memorable British bombardnlent. Mr..
| Stuart was in Germany during the
| critical days before our entrance into
the war, and was in Berlin or the Aus
Crian capitol the day we declared
war on the Central Powers. After
many trying experiences he escaped to
Berne, Switzerland, neutral state,
and thence to his own country. He
was a devoted member of Centenary
I'M. E. church and a gentlemanly,
square man, loyal to his God, church
and country.

At the start of the hazard tourna-

other of so, which latter score was
tied by c. Dahlgren. Just before
closing time Fred Hammond looked
in and got a hunch. He selected a
heavy cue and on his third attempt
chalked up a 81 mark, which stands
as the record in this tournament.
The hazard tournament consists in
4 player taking ten shots in the res

number of points are counted and
the man who has the most number
is declared winner. In this manner

Chef Sanders, representing Ma

sweet revenge on Ernest Keene of
the Golden Mann room. last night
in the regular league game of the
South Bend Mishawaka tourna-
ment. The final score was 20 TO
81. II was just a week ago last
night that Sanders. who was up TO
that time had not been defeated, fell
before the blond youth from over
the river. Last night the order was
reversed, and Keene suffered his
irst defeat The largest crowd
which had yet attended a league
game witnessed the exhibition,
many Of the billiard enthusiasts be-
ing turned away.
Sanders got away to flying
start. and was never overtaken.
Playing cool, consistent billiards, he
poCketed all the balls which became
separated from the bunch and then
played the old oil Several times
during the game Sanders gained
the applause OF the spectators by
eNtricating himself from tight po-
perfect working order. and his
judgment of speed was almost un-
canny. He took no unnecessary
chances on break shots. but was
content with gathering in the loose
ones which he accomplished in a

VARSITY LEAVES

Twelve Players Including

BOIand May Work.
BY Chas. W. Call.

Twelve gold and blue baseball
players. together with Coach Jesse
c. Harper. will leave early this
morning TO play two games in the
state Of Iowa This afternoon, train
connections not 10 the contrary, they
will be in Davenport to face the
strong 81 Ambrose college team,
and on Wednesday afternoon the
University of Iowa team will be
played a return game at iowa City.
The players TO make the western
iaunt are: Capt. Wolf Sjoberg. Phil
bin. Fitzgerald. Andres, HallOran,
Boland, Lavery, Murray, Bader, Bar
~ and Morgan.
Coach Harper would make no
comment on his choice Of the Notre
Dame boXmen against st. Ambrose
this afternoon other than TO remark,
81 think il may be Lavery." Ii is
safe to say that Murray will be
saved for the game with Iowa on
Wednesday Despite the fact that
the Iowans beat him on Cartier
field last Friday afternoon he look
ed mighty good against them. and
had he received a little better sup
port ne might have beaten them.
With Murray slated for the We'd
nesday game il means that the
twirler of this afternoon viii be
either Lavery or Boland.
Boland has not yet had a chance
in the box during a regular sched-
Uled game. Lavery has. Lavery
heat Rose Poly in the first game OF
the season, but has had little oppor
tunity TO show his worth since As
Murray has done most of the box
work Boland is essentially "A warm
weather pitcher. He has little or no
success when the day is cold. If the
temperature is at a good height
when the team reaches Davenport
Harper may change his mind and
use BCland in place Of Lavery. The
one who shows the most stuff while
warming up will probably get the
assignment.
Notre Dame is particularly anX-
ious to avenge the ? to l defeat
forced on them by the University of
Iowa club last Friday. The chance
comes Wednesday. Pat Murray IS
out to humble the only aggregation
that has won from him this season.
If his teammates can secure a few
more runs than they did for him last
week Notre Dame is pretty sure to
win the battle.
Purdue Here Saturday.
The next home game on the
Notre Dame schedule is with Purdr
Saturday afternoon. incidentally II
is the last opportunity of seeing
the gold and blue squad in action
this year. Following the game with
the Boilermakers the local team
winds up what has been a very sue
cessful season with games with the
