The new plan of recreation for every

tenn
The outdoor games are the type that
require no change Of clothes-anyonc
can play, and without interrupting
the game. Three deep" is as pop
ular among the officers as the men.
Leapfrog, hot hand and many other
games requiring no apparatus what
ever also serve to enliven the of hours
of the soldiers in training. Frequently
during a drill, one hears the COM
mand:
Ground arms
The guns are stacked and the men
start playing some one of the games
they have learned from the Y. NJ. c.
A. physical director. The same thing
happens among the foreign troops, 80
per cent Of whom have only learned
to play since coming to Camp Grant.
Normally, Sc outdoor basketball
courts are almost constantly in use al
Camp Grant. Ffty-six volleyball
courts are also much used by the men
Basketball has been so popular dur
ing the winter that the big Y. NJ. c. A
auditorium has been divided by nets
into compartments so that three
games may be played at the same
time.
Boxing and wrestling will work
hand in hand at Camp Grant to equip
men with the peculiar training they
need for their service for Uncle Sam
sover there" Boxing and wrestling
mats are provided for each of the Y
NJ. C. A. huts and the scientific phases
of the two sports will be developed
under the physical directors cooperat
ing with Rev. Fred r. Wedge, known
as the Fighting Parson."

BY HENRY G. NEWELL.

Camp Grant, Jan. 23.-Wrestling.
the sport Of the ancient Greeks, is now
the side partner of boxing at Camp
Grant, having been introduced there
as training exercise for the men who
soon will be called upon to go over
the top" The fact is that the new
sport is so we'll liked and SO necessary
in developing muscles for trench fight
ing that it may soon be expected to
become compulsory under orders from
the commandant.
Boxing already is popular feature
of the Young Mems Christian associa-
ton physical program. The advent
of wrestling means still another bene-
fetal sport for the soldiers. 1t may
even pave the way, it is felt, for uni
versal training in wrestling in the
United States army.
IF every boy in the United States
army learned to box, wrestle and play
football, we'd soon have the best con-
ditioned army in the world" said a
Camp Grant officer recently. Boxing
is needed for agility in bayonet fight
ing. Football is good for giving one
speed and wind. Wrestling is needed
to tougher and harden man for pro-
tective purposes in hand-to-hand en-
counters"
Every activity in the Y. M. c. AS
broad physical program for enlisted
men at Camp Grant has been planned
to prepare them for actual service In
the field or in the trenches as well as
build morale among the men by keep
ing them busy and contented during
leisure hours. Under the general di'
rection of DR.. H. F. Kallenberg. Y. M
C. A. camp physical director, there is
now no chance for the enlisted man tt
get homesick from lack OF recrea
tional activity.
Mass athletics are the popular type

WEST POINT SOON TO
BE WITHOUT ATHLETE

New York, Jan. 23.-When Elmer
Oliphant is graduated from West
Point next summer, the army school
will lose the greatest all round ath-
lete ever instructed at the institution
on the banks Of the Hudson. Oliphant
upon taking up his army duties. will
leave a record behind him at the Point
that may never be equaled. He has
played upon practically every athletic
team that has represented the cadets
during his course and he has been a
star in each Of the sports in which he
has taken part.
The tow headed Ollie, who has
struck terror to the hearts Of many
a football team, is now playing hook
ey for the cadets. He is said to be
as much of whirlwind on the ice as
on the gridiron. Soon he will be turn
ing out with the baseball candidates.
Oliphant has earned his varsity EN-
blem in baseball, football, track and
basketball He apparently can do
anything in the line of athletics well.
There is no other such capable all
round athlete in the country today.
II the Army and Navy meet on the
gridiron next fall, and the chances are
good that they will, the midshipmen
may come into their own. They will
not have to contend with Oliphant,
anyhow, and that should give them a
big advantage. Oliphant will not only
be out Of West Point before the open
ing of another football season, but he
will be married man as well. The
announcement Of his engagement to
Miss Barbara Benedict of New York
City was only recently made. They
will be wed in the West Point chapel
Immediately after Oliphant is grad
mated
