former diamond stars of the Detroit
American league club are about tc go

or welfare work behind the trenches.
Jim ("Deacon') Mcguire, who was
twice connected with the local club.
once as a catcher-and later as coach
and scout, is understood to have been
waiting a call from the knights Of
Columbus for service overseas. Nc
Quire is we'll beyond the draft age, and
consequently ineligible for active fight
ing service. The desire to take some
part in the world war, however, is
keen in his heart, according to his
friends here, and he has taken the
first opportunity to get into it.
wild Bill" Donovan, for years
pitching idol of Detroit fans, and last
season assistant to Hughie Jennings,
is the other Detroiter slated for over
seas service. 1t was at first under
stood Donovan would also become
connected with the knights of Col

recently it was reported he had sue
ceeded in enlisting> in the navy. No
dierct word has been received from
Donovan himself. however.
Jennings and Bill Coughlin, another
former Tiger player, already have
joined forces with the knights of
