STAGE ALL SET FOR OPENING

likely a sizable crowd would yield to
the lure of the seasonable weather and
the first opportunity in months fans
have had to indulge themselves in base

The death yesterday of Senator Stone

it was expected that others of his con-

their plans for attending, but at 2:30

first number on it's program, specta-
tors already had begun to file through
the turnstiles in such numbers as to
justify the belief the stands would be
pretty well filled by the time the game
was called at o'clock.

Marshal Haig's appeal to his troops has

Reuter- dispatch from London received
here tonight. Indicating that the

even be decisive, it forms the text Of

man and woman in the British Isles
to take 1t to heart. while breathing
confidence that the armies which al

sines ridge have not been turned. the
whole northern army's communications
are imperiled.
Others. little more hopeful. point
out that the more German divisions are
engaged the easier will be Foch's task.
They state that 1t is still too soon to
assume that direct thrust in the north
for the channel ports has become the
enemy's major operation.
The increased activity of the Ger
man artillery astride the Somme points
to a renewal of the contest on a larger
scale. The Times states that Gen. Plum

Is on ground thoroughly familiar to
him.

Paris newspapers unanimously praise

swered with virile energy by the heroic
British troops. Marcel Hut, in the Echo
de Paris, says the road to Calais and
Ounkirk is henceforth closed to the
Germans.
The Matin says the tenacity of the
British resistance undoubtedly enables
the dominating positions which form
the barrier between the river Lys and
the Dunkirk road to be put in state of
defense.
The Excelsior points out that the
Anglo-French reserves have not yet
been engaged. The battle is only be-
ginning and the allied high command
has its own reasons for letting the
enemy exhaust himself. The German
losses. already excessive. may at any
