Good Baseball Material Is
Being Developed 'OveT There"

The war has wrought many changes
I'm American institutions, but 1t Is
doubtful If baseball magnates in the
past would have thought of looking TO
the army for diamond recruits. Such
is the case at present. however, and II
is not unlikely that after the close or
hostilities many youths who have
worn the khaki OF Uncle Sam VIII
change for the uniforms of the ma
jor league clubs.
Reports from prominent baseball
men now serving overseas are to the
effect that there are plenty of young
men playing the game behind lines
In their spare our who are Wen
worthy of a trial with the big clubs.
In fact, several have urged their for
mer either to come over or
send q scout across to see the type OF
man who is being uncovered in these
games, which many times are played
within sound Of the heavy guns.
They are superbly trained, from a
ph, steal standpoint, and handle them
selves both at bat and In the field
with the perfect confidence n polse
which alone como from excellent con-
dition and discipline. While but a few
are at present qualified to enter big
league play. there are scores, accord
ing to the reports. who are right now
better prospects han tho average
minor leaguers of recent seasons. A
few weeks drilling under the eye OF
an experienced baseball coach, with
some instruction in the finer points
of Individual and team play, and some

The first bout was scheduled for

Too bad this city has no lightweight

Athletics VS.. Influenza

Now If ever it is imperative that
everyone exercise as much as posi-
hle. With football, basketball. box
ing and gymnasium workouts on the
want because of the dreaded epidemic
which is laying so many low the ath-
.letic public is letting its daily exercis-
ing slide and as a result are neglect
ing the one thing that will guard
them against h ravages of disease.
Although the gymnasiums are more
or less closed and the chances OF ex-
ercise are, remote there still remains
the old reliable tramp through the
woods that brings color into the
cheeks and a new feeling that defes
sickness. Instead OF riding to work
in congested ears the average man
would feel better and stronger If he
up a little earlier and walked.
The fresh morning air and the walk
would make him feel better and give
him more confidence in his ability to
fight off any attack of illness.
Don't forget your exercise!
