Run Up Old Glory
By Wilbur ID. Nesbit.

By Wilbur d. Nesbit.
Run up Old Glory!
Let it blaze
In red and white against the sky
And tell the story of the days
When hearts were stout and hopes were high.
Forget the daily fights of greed,
Forget the struggles of dismay
Of facing cruelty and need
Run up Old Glory for the day.
Run up Old Glory!
Think of all
The old flag means 10 you and me,
OF how the blast of freedoms call
Shook out its folds from sea to sea;
Red with the blood that it has cost,
White with the souls of them that died
Today by laughing breezes tossed
It whispers of nations pride.
Run up Old Glory!
Fling it forth
And feel anew the country-call
That thrills East, West and South and North
And has it's word for one and ALL
Run up Old Glory-fing it far
Across the blue of heavens dome,
And feel that every stripe and star
Is warder of your hearth and home.

MINOR LEAGUES TO
HOLD USUAL MEETING

New York, Oct. 10.-The minor
leagues must be given credit at
least for tenacity. In spite of the
war and the myriad Ills which it
has developed for the small leagues
the National Association will hold
its annual meeting beginning on
November ~. at Peoria. The call
for the session was sent out last
night by John H. Farrell, and he
makes it clear that the minors have
great deal to settle. The meeting
most likely will be the most impor-
tant in the seventeen years history
of the association. for the many ter
ritorial. franchise and other tangles
be unravalled and the question of
player rights settled.
The minor leagues now are con-
fronted with a new danger, from
tNA Np''Onal Federation. a semi-pro-
fe. -aal organization which plans
to operate in eight major and minor
league cities next season. The Fed
Grafton plans Saturday and Sunday
games, with the profits to go to the
War and Navy Departments Com
mission on Training Camp Activities
for the purchase Of athletic equip
ment for the service. If the war Is
over the Federation. which has been
doing business in the West for sew
eral years, no doubt will stick by
it's guns and seek a bigger and
wider field. Taken all in all. the
minors have a lot to ponder over.

FRENCH CHAMP
IS NOW READY
Idol of france Boxing World
Wants to Perform in
United States.

New York, Oct. 10-Georges Car
pentier, greatest of French boxers
and Europe's heavyweight cham
pion, who has added to the fame
he gained as a ringman by his ex-
ploits in the world war, Is anxious
to return to the squared circle and
would meet Jack Dempsey. Infor-
nation to this effect is contained in
a letter written by Victor Breyer,
the French sportsman and journal
ist.
"Of late / have noticed in some
of the American journals that Car
pentier has made up his mind to
retire from the game" says Breyer.
Il have seen a great deal of the
young man lately and 1 can assure
you it is all a mistake. He is in
splendid health now; in fact, since
he entered the Joinyille Military
School of Physical Training he is
transformed and has never been
better.
His one desire now is to see the
war finished. so that he may start
again. and he is quite eager about
it. At present he is giving quite n
number of exhibition bouts all over
the country, especially in the Amer
lean camps, where he is very popu-
lar. II anything he is heavier and
would welcome a match with Jack
Dempsey or any other star when
the war is over. I have never seen
him box with better judgment and
his hitting is more powerful There
are many of the American boys
here who are fine boxers, and Car
pentier is not overlooking any
chance to improve his own style"
At various times since Carpenter
entered the service of his country
in 1914 conflicting reports concern
ing him have been received in this
country. At one time it was said
that his duties as a soldier in the
field had put such a strain upon
him that he was in very bad shape
and probably never would be able to
regain his form. At another time
he was reported to have injured his
lungs through excessive cigarette
smoking to such an extent that 1t
was impossible for him to box more
than around or two without sorely
distressing himself. and 1t was
freely predicted that his career as
a boxer was definitely ended.
OF late, however. more favorable
reports of the idol of French boxing
fans have come out of the war-torn
land. One of these came from
Sparrow" Robertson, now in France
as a physical director for the Y. NJ.
c. A. who recently wrote to the
effect that Carpenter was in fine
condition and would welcome an -op-
portunity to come to this country.
Breyer's letter, therefore. confirms
the report sent by Robertson.

BRAVES
ON THE ROCKS
Jim Gafney Gives Owners
Until Monday to
Pay Up.

New York, Oct. 10.-when the
baseball races were shut down by
the government on September of
this year it was predicted that sew
eral big league clubs would be un-
able to Withstand a period of war
idleness and would go under finan-
cially.
The first crack is likely to take
place in Boston, where the National
League club is about to go on the
rocks.
James e. Gaffney, former owner
of the club and a contractor Of this
city, said he would take back the
franchise next Monday unless the
present owners of the club met their
obligations. There is a considerable
sum due Gaffney for rental of
Braves Field, while the present own
ers also are. behind in the payment
of interest on bonds held by Gaff-
ney and associates.
The Boston Nationals had been
sailing along on half a rudder for
some time and their finances were
not in the best condition even be-
fore General Crowder issued his IA
nous Work or Fight" order.
Percy Haughton resigned as presi-
dent of the club to accept a COM
mission as major in the chemical
warfare service. The club since
then has been without a real execu-
tive, its affairs having been left in
the hands of Walter Hapgood. its
business manager.
The Boston Nationals are owned
by a syndicate of New England
bankers, who purchased the fran
chise from Gaffney in 1916. The
club lost money continually from
the time the new owners took
charge and has been on the market
for the last two years. But in these
war times there are few baseball
purchasers. Efforts were made to
sell the club back to Gaffney at a
considerable loss. but Gaffney would
not buy it

GEORGIA TECH NOT
TO PLAY PENN TEAM

New York. Oct. 1O.-One OF the sad
dest tales of the football season is
that Georgia Tech is not coming
north to play Pennsylvania in Phila-
delphia on November 16. The Atlanta
athletic authorities had the assist
ance of the military commander to
try to work out a schedule whereby
1t would be possible for the eleven to
journey to Franklin Field, but under
the War Department regulations 1t
was found that 1t would be impossible
to make the trip in the forty ight
hours leave granted by the departA
ment.
The Southerners feel keenly their
inability to meet the Quakers. for
they are anxious to demonstrate that
their 40 victory over Folwelrs
team last year was not a fluke. John
Heisman had only fair material to
build from, but the eleven is devol-
oping rapidly and, according to re-
port, compares favorably with the
husky outfit that went through 1917
so ostentiously. winding up with a
fair claim to the national football
championship.
