Have You a Relative
Who Is in Service?


If you have a relative or friend in
service you would like to keep in
touch with him and if he is wounded,
captured or killed you would like to
know it at once, would you not? I'm
less everyone who has son, father,
relative, sweetheart or friend in the
service, send City Clerk Bean,
phone 100, his name. 1t may be that
he will meet with some misfortune
and you and his friends might not
know of it. There was an instance of
this yesterday when boy who was
missing from this city, did
not have his name on ME with the
City Clerk, and therefore officials
could not get in touch with relatives
or friends. You owe it to your son,
father, brother, sweetheart, friends
to see that their name is on the re-
cord. If they are captured by Ger
mans, many favors can be secured
for them if the relatives and friends
can be located. Attend to this right
now and phone 100 and give Mr..
Bean the name and address, if pos
sible, if you know of anyone in the
service.

'KAUFF PLEASED

Greets Former Teammates
En- Route to Play Game
with Camp Club.

Cincinnati. July 21-when the train
bearing the Giants from Pittsburgh
to this city reached Denison, Ohio.
about midnight, a party Of soldiers
swung aboard and, to the Joy Of the
players. It developed that one of the
khaki-clad youths was none other
than Benny Kauff. The Giants for
mer center fielder makes a fine-iook-
ing soldier and apparently has taken
on weight since he entered the army.
How do 1 like it?" he echoed In
reply to the natural question fired
at him by his former teammates.
why, it's great! OF course, I haven't
been in the service long enough to
experience any hardships, but / will
say that they've treated, me mighty
fine at Camp Sherman. Yes, I miss
my silk shirts and a lot of other
luxuries, but I guess / can stand IT
until the time comes for me to go
back to playing ball"
II seems that the Camp Sherman
team, organized and captained by
Benny, had played at Denison on
Saturday and was on the way to
Hillsboro, q suburb of Cincinnati. to
play yesterday. One Of the outfeld-
ers on the team 10 Josh Devore, an
in days gone by.
Benny has taken to the army rou-
tine with the same enthusiasm which
marks everything he does, and he
hopes that before the dawn Of peace
he will have won a commission. Uncle
Sam may yet have good cause to be
proud of this little fellow. for he'll
make just as good a soldier as he
did a ballplayer.

PRACTICE LIKE YOU PLAY.
McGraw's Idea Seldom Adhered to
by PLAYERS. However.

New York, July H.-"If q player will
only practice as he plays-that is, put
as much effort into his work, be n
batting or pitching. in a game. he will
have no trouble in keeping In ex-
cellent shape and will at the same
time make himself a better ball play
er."
That is the theory Of John McGraw
and though 1t is. on the face Of II,
Ind and logical, he complains that
there are few ball players who adhere
to II.
In the days when I was a player" I"
he said, I'VE practiced hard all the
time. We'd go out to the ball park
In the morning, even when 1t was not
compulsory for US to do so, and prac-
tice at top speed for a couple of hours
in preparation for the afternoons
game. Nowadays you'll see players,
even a few minutes before game
time, just lobbing the ball around
with scarcely any effort. Pitchers
warming up have a habit Of tossing
the ball to the catcher instead Of put
ting something on It. No wonder they
can't pitch as they ought to"

Dempsey and Fulton Must
. Meet the Requirements
ofWork-or-,Fight Law.

Not only baseball players but all
other men engaged only in profess
ional sport are to be forced into some
useful occupation. When General
Crowder's ONCE was asked fo- a
ruling on boxers II was stated that
all professional pugilists who are not
engaged In some other work classed
as useful for at least thirty-six hours
each week are to be forced to quit
boxing or go into the army.
When the officials were Informed
of the coming bout between Fred
Fulton and Jack Dempsey at Newark
next Saturday they declared that un-
less the fighters met the requirements
Of the draft law they were liable to
immediate induction into the army
and the fight may have to be called
of.
Both In the Draft.
Both Jack Dempsey and Fred Full
ton, who are scheduled to box at
the old Federal League Park in
Newark. Saturday afternoon, are
in the draft Dempsey is not mar
ried and as far as is known has no
dependents. Fulton has a family and
is in class 4. Dempsey, who was
born in 1926, Is twenty-three years

yond taking part in an occasional
bout and even in their professional
