JACK BURGESS
In WAR WORK
Chevy Chase Golf Pro Re,
ceives Orders to Obtain
Essential Work.

The first application of the work
or-fight law as applied to a local
golf professional came last week
when Jack Burgess. paid player at
the Chevy Chase Club. was given
fourteen days in which to find an
essential job. 1t is expected that
the other local pros" will also be
given the alternative OF finding es-
sential work or joining the army in
the very near future.
When the list of nonessential Oc-
cupations was issued some time
ago. the trade of golf professional
was included but up to the present
time none of the FIVE located at the
country clubs about the city have
taken the matter seriously enough
to change the method OF livelihood.
From the action taken in the Bur-
CESS case. there IS no doubt but
that the others will hustle around
and get positions in some other
line which meets with the Provost
Marshal's approval
The suggestion has been made. in
this connection. that golf pros" be
appointed as physical instructors in
the same manner as prize fighters,
and other professional athletes
have. Announcement has been made
that golf links will be provided at
practically all of the cantOnments
and the appointment of a number
of the pros" to teach the soldiers
the game would no doubt go a
great ways toward getting the boys
Interested in the game which is
unQuestionabiy one OF the health

BOXING in ENGLAND
BOOST PUGiLISM


New York, Sept 14-In spite Of the
war, the English professional boxers
are very active and interest in their
doings runs high. Twenty-Five cham
pionship contests, embracing all
classes with the exception OF the
light-weiChts, have been fought since
the British Empire was plunged into
war in 1914 The sole reason for the
lack OF activity among the light
weights lies In the presence in this
country of Freddie Welsh. who still
holds the Lord Lonsdale belt en-
blematic of the championship in this
class. The present champions OF Eng
land are:
Heavyweight. Bombardier Wells.

Navy Favors Grid Game.

Annapolis, Md, Sept Kit Is not
believed that there will be any in
reference with the Naval Acad-
emy football schedule as II was ar
ranged with a full knowledge as
to the attitude of the authorities
towards sports and no change is
likely to the contrary.
The two open dates will prob
ably be filled. November l6 and 3
are still open. The first will be filled
by a strong team. The game to
be played here the second date is
reserved for the Army team, but
IL that is not permitted another
good local@game will probably be
arranged as the final of the season.

No Change Will Be Made in Easton
COLLEGES Football Plans,

Easton, Pa, Sept 14.-All prepa-
rations for football at Lafayette Coli
lege will move forward as planned,
for 1t is felt at the Esston institu-
tion that the report circulated yes
terday to the effect that the game
would be eliminated this fall was
not clearly stated.
Instructions received at Lafayette
make every provision for intercol-
legiate football to be continued as
usual, with the single limitation
that no game be scheduled that will
require a contesting team to be alb
sent from its own college for more
than single day. The only change
in the game for colleges in which
there will be student army training
corps Is that all games will be
played among colleges near at hand.

have 12,On pairs made for the use
of the soldiers.
Inasmuch as the great football stars
OF the past decade from the East,
West, North and South are with the
A m erican Expeditionsry Forces
abroad, there should be some real
all-American games staged behind the
lines soon. That is, IL Mr.. Anguish

thrill of the afternoon when Martin
and Davis crossed the line I'm a dead
heat. On the paddle OFF Martin was
declared the winner of second place
and Davis was given third honors.

time. Miss Woodward was the first
to the float closely followed by Miss
Bilson and Miss Stella O'Neill, Of
Chicago, landed third only a fraction
behind the second position.
In the fancy diving contest for
women Miss Z. Boyle was awarded
the honors after her exhibition of the
