FORMER YALE COACH
 IN Y. M. C. A. WORK
Frank L. ouinby Leaves Andover to
 Go Overseas.

Frank L. Quinby, former Yale base ball coach, and now coach at Andover, is one of the recruits secured by the college committee of the Y. M C. A. war council for work among the sol ders in France. This means that An dover will be without Quinby's ser vices for at least a year There is said to be a possibility that Alfred E. Stearns. the principal of the prepara- tory school, will take over the work of coaching the nine. He has been the head Of Andover for the past fifteen years and in that time has done more or less coachings, says the New York Post. Old timers will recall MT. Stearrs the crack Amherst player, who through all the years has been the hero of Dutch Carter's famous story of the time one of his swift shoots struck the Amherst man in the leg and with such force that the Spalding trade mark, seams and all, were i'm printed in the unfortunate batter's in tegumant. Quinby, by the way is the second Andover coach to enter the ser
 vice. Fred J. Daly, AndoVer and Yale athlete, who left for France a year
 ago with Andover's hospital unit, is now a commissioned ocer in the
 French army and probably will not be took up the coaching task at Andover last fall and fared exceptionally well.
 The academy did not have a varsity baseball team last spring because of intensive military training, but it has
 been planned to resume ali sports. and ] the loss of Quinby is not expected to cause the authorities to drop baseball. ! His experience as a handler of men | he was baseball coach at Yale before | taking charge of an educational
 branch at Andover-shou1d be of
 great value when he gets to France to cater to the wants of the men in the | United States army and in aid in
 strengthening the morale of the sol | dierS.

Dates of the Important Trapshootins ,...- Tournaments.
By PETER P. CARNEY

By PETER P. CARNEY Press Representative of the Interstate
 Trapshooting Association.
 Sportsmen's associations in 23 States have selected dates for their trap shooting championships.
 These and the dates of other impor tant trapshooting competitions have been announced by the Interstate Trapshooting Association in it's 1918 list of registered tournaments.
 Tournaments registered thus far number exactly 800; 51 others have been applied for, including 25 State tournaments and when matters are adjusted these tournaments will be registered The number of tourna- ments does not compare with those of last year or the year before-when more than 800 were registered-but it is a wonderful number considering the conditions under which we are labor ing.
 Trapshooting was the last sport to be affected by the war. More than 100 900 trapshooters have entered the service, and with such numbers doing their best for Uncle Sam and demo- cracy it is only natural that the num- Der of tournaments should decrease. The tournaments as they are listed by months are: March. ,; April "A; May S5; June, 70; July. 50; August, l 30; September, 28; October, 8. Six teen tournaments are listed for Mem orial Day and seven for July 4.
 Here are the dates of the State 1 tournaments listed also the dates of the important special shoots: State Championships.

Famous Boxer Who Have "eone westv

Professional athletes in the service lover there" seem to lead a charmed life. They go into the worst messes, such as that in which Hank Gowdy, the Boston catcher, figured in some weeks ago and they usually come through unscratched Though practi- cally all of the British boxers are in the service only five of any account have thus fan, been killed. A similar number of French boxers has made the great sacrifice. Victor Breyer, the leading French boxing authority, has made list of the British and French casualties which are as follows:
 British-Hom Mccormick Pete Brown, Billy Ladbury, Georgie Wells and Jerry Delaney.
 French-Bernard. Henri Piet, Gaston Clement, Robert Loesch and Louis LacroiX.
 Mccormick was one of the best welterweights developed in England. He defeated such men as Albert Ba- doud and Johnny Somers and won the Australian championship. Some ten years ago Brown was numbered among the best middleweights in Europe while Ladbury was a fiyweight of considerable ability. He. fought for the British title thrice and earned a decision over Charley Ledoux. the

YANNIeANs AND REGULARS,
 TO SETTLE SUPERIORITY
Carmen Teams Will Clash This Ar ternoon on the TaftViIle Diamond.


 This afternoon the deadly. rivalry between the Yannigans and the regu- lar Shore Line teams will be settled on the muddy~feld of Taftville Man. ager McGlone of the .Yannigans has gone on record with the statement that if baseball ability were grounds for exemption all the regulars would be in the front line trenches by this time. Manager Jack Flynn started to brag about the Stonington game and Me Clone pointed sout that the regulars had one of the Yannigan's irfield with them. At this point some peace loy- ing friend intervened and dragged them apart. Flynn said that if Mo- Clone dared to come on. the field today he would drivet every ball that came over down hissthfoat and. Nj cGlone re- piled that witl a pitcher developed by his genius Flynn would never see the pill. aiF5 M s.s ifi ts.ss
 Manager Flynn has not announced his lineup but will probably use the team that worked so smoothly against Stonington. He may however try a few rockies out in preparation for an- other game with the Academy. Me- Clone will line his team up as follows: Bowen ..

IN THE AUTOMOBILE WORLD

now in service. replacing the old l coolie- drawn rickshaws that for ages have been used for this purpose.
 So many phases of American activ ities during war time have been in- fuenced and regulated through sini- lar circumstances existing in Euro pean countries especially our allies that policies laid down by those gov ernments have been looked to largely by authorities here as the solution to many economic problems as they have materialized
 To give the automobile it's proper
 place in relation to war time activities
 has for some time been matter of public notice, and it has been fre- quently cited how the regulation pro noted in England would be equally applicable here But in the opinion of i $. E. Alderman, sales manager of a i difference in the use of automobiles in well known automobile company, wide l this country and in England throws l an entirely different light upon the, | comparison. Automobiles have never ] attained the position in the daily life
 of England that is the case in the 1 United States. England with her 31,- 000,000 people had, according to the ! latest available report, only 290 900 otor vehicles an average of only one
 car to every 107 people in the country, :: while the United State has 900, 900 cars, or one car to every 20 inhabit-
 ants.
 In New York state alone" points
 out MT. Alderman. there are 400 000
 motor vehicles to it's 9,113 514 popula-
 tion, or 110 900 more cars than the
 total registration in England with
 three times the population of New | York state.
 
 Tt is plain therefore that motor . vehicles in European countries bear
 but fraction of the importance to the activities of the people as is the case
 with the United States and every re-
 Striction on the use of automobiles in l foreign countries is of minor conse- quence compared to the effect similai restrictions might have on the trans portation problems of this country" It is MT. Ackermans belief that authorities in the United States vii put forth every effort to maintain un. impaired the extensive utility of tht [ automobile and rather than plact = limits upon mileage or fuel supply tn, : solution here will turn toward makin : automobile use for efficient, i. e. tn, e total mileage will be laintained a s considerably less expenditure of fuel I tires. and other supplies, througl n lighter weight, more efficient moto
 cars.

Duty of State toFoster Use of Motor Truck In Country Districts-Japan Uses Motorcycles For Postal Ser vice.

!. Commissioner Duffy of the State Department of Highways makes haste to explain that he does not propose to withdraw the privilegesl of the State highways from the army under the bill fathered by him which would exclude five ton trucks therefrom Ap- parently it is aimed only at commer- clal vehicles; but unless Mir. Duffy ueslgns 1t as merely temporary measure to restrict them while the highways are being brought up to modern standards the bill he has caused to be introduced is based on false philosophy and will do the state grave injury, says the New York Sun
 Not only abroad but in this country 1t has been proved that motor trucks or large capacity are economical for the delivery of goods between distant communities, particularly when the | railroads are congested and transpor- | tation on them is uncertain and slow. l The duty of the state is not to hinder
 the development of this means of com
 munication but to encourage it not 1 only for the army, but for the public l generally It is conceivable that the i highways might profitably be closed for a time to allow them to be rebuilt i to meet the new conditions created ! by improvement in motor trucks: but
 for the state to take the stand that it's highways must not be useds by
 conveyances of weight greater thar five tons would be the height of stu
 pidity To exact, through taxation, z
 proper toll on destructive trucks may be advisable; yet this is often tt question.
 The question involved are of par. ticular interest to farmers, to whom
 the use of the highways by heav,
 trucks is of supreme importance
 These vehicles will expedite the trans
 poftatlon of farm products to mar
 kets, widen the opportunities of tn
 producers to sell at top prices ant
 prevent the waste of thousands 0
 dollars worth of foodstuffs that unde
 present condiHons would be practical } ly unavailable for human consumpt ion. Moreover, by bringing closer to gether, in time, the growers and tn ) buyers of farm products motor truck will operate to prevent corners O. foodStuffS and eXtortionate prices i cities
 } The policy of the state should be t :, portation facilities and to provide ac | anticipate every improvement in trans 0 commodations for them. To seek t 3 hamper investive genius and construc
 tion ability by barring the highway
 to use trucks is the quintessence (
 folly
