WAR WRITES "FINIS"
Another Year of War VIII See End of
Cobb's Career. ss
BY JACK VEIOCK.


New York, Aug. Aft the world
war continues next year Ty Cobb will
not be seen in action, no matter how
baseball stands.
With a long winter ahead and many
uncertainties as to what may develop,
it is by no means certain that baseball
mags will not try to open their parks
next season. but with war still raging
Ty will be among the missing.
During recent visit of the Detroit
Tigers to Washington, Cobb told an
intimate friend that this was to be his
last season in the game until after the
war. And at the time he was by no
means sure that 1t would not be his
last under any conditions.
The Georgia Peach told his Wash
ington friend that he meant to get into
the big game somewhere and do what
he could to help wallop the kaiser
Placed in class 4, Cobb could continue
status remained UNCHANGED, but his
decision to hang up the spikes was
well meant.
Many players feel the same as Cobb.
They are not going to be governed
by what baseball club owners do in
the future if the war goes on. The
game is going to lose many stars who
have a number of good seasons ahead
of them An early peace is the only
thing that will bring them back into
the harness.

TENNIS AIDS WAR
Net Game Requires Same Physi-
cal Qualities as Fighting Men.
Proceeds of All Tournaments
Go to Training Camps.

Uniform physical requirements for
recruits in the regular army, national
F, army and national guard, as recently
/ announced by Surgeon General Cor
| gas, have been brought to the atten-
| ton of members of the United States
| National Lawn Tennis association by
| Vice President Julian S. Myrick. He
| indicates the part sport has in devel-
| op-- g men for military service, in the
following letter, quoting General Cor
gaS'S statement:
The Mal1in's of a Man.
The rule for all three armies is
that to make a good soldier man
must be able, to see well, have COM
paratively good hearing, his heart
must be able to stand the stress of
physical exertion, he must be intelli-
gent enough to understand and exc
cute military maneuvers. obey conn
mands and protect himself, and must
be able to transport himself by walk
ing as the exigencies of military life
may demand.
IF these specificatio ms had been
made to order they could not have fit
ted the tennis player more perfectly.
Every requirement set forth by the
surgeon general can be developed on
the tennis court. The fact that thou
sands of our players have already en-
tered service shows that unconscious
ly We have been developing men who
were just the type needed by the gov
eminent in this crisis.
Tennis Renders Service.
with this official pronouncement
as our aim. there is an unparalleled
opportunity before the tennis clubs of
the country to render real service IN
making the nation physically fit.
Tourn:- m~nts as such are a secondary
matter. The important thing for every
club to bear in mind is that consistent
exercise is not a waste of time, but a
real service. Youngsters may be de-
veloped into the kind of men the coun--
try needs and the older men may be
kept fit to bear the increased re-
sponsibilities of wartime.
81 have taken the liberty to bring
this to your attention in the belief
that this aspect of the game is of the
utmost Importance. The association
counts on you for continuing cooper
alton in realizing the ideal which the
highest medical authority of the army
has set-for us and for all other pa
triotic citizens.
Proceeds to Camps.
'In line with this policy, the pro-
ceeds of all tournaments are given -
the war department commission on
training camp activities. to provide
tennis equipment for men in military
service. Courts have been construct
ed in more than twenty-five of the
larger camps, where the game is prov
ing popular. Particular effort is be-
ing made to realize a lalg e sum for
this fund from the national champion
ships to be held at Boston and Forest
Hills August IL and 26.'

Notice to the Public

The Star deeply regrets that,
owing to defective paper. it was
unable to issue the complete
edition on time yesterday after
noon. A fourth mammoth press,
which was contracted for deliv-
cry last August. is only now
being installed to help relieve
the situation.
The fact is that the demand,
for The Star is SO great that
under present conditions it is
impossible to keep the supply
adequate and thereby effect a
perfect distribution of over
100000 papers every afternoon.
Every effort is being made to
obtain more perfect paper. and
the mechanical and circulation
departments are working to the
limit Of endurance to print and
distribute the great volume Of
papers as near a. possible on
schedule time.

ASIA MINOR CITIES AN ISSUE.
France and England Said to Have
EXCHANGED Notes.

Cablegram to The Evening Star and
Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1918.
PARIS, France, December 6.-Re-
ports from American sources indicate
that there has been a recent exchange
of notes between France and England
concerning the partition of Asia
Minor. both powers claiming Damas-
Gus and Aleppo.
According to the text published in
Russia of a secret agreement made in
the spring of 1916 between Russia
France and England for the partition
of Asia Minor, it accorded to England
Mesopotamia. and also the Syrian
ports of Akka and Haifa, with Alex
andretta as a free port, while it ac-
corded to France d deep strip Of the
coast from Haifa to Adana and ex-
tending inland clear to the Armenian
frontier near kharput.
The cities of Aleppo and Damascus
thus fell in the French zone. The
reasons why England is now claim
ing these towns are unknown.
