Felsch's home is in Milwaukee.
Felsch led the league in fielding last
season and Is a regular 300 hitter.
He starred in the, world series last
year with his heavy hitting.
Whether or not Owner Comiskey
will bar Felsch from his park, as he
has the other jumpers. remains to be
seen. Comiskey has made it. plain
that he doesn't want any player who
jumps the club to escape military
service to re-enter the grounds again.

According to reports from abroad
the enthusiasm Of the American and
Canadian soldiers for baseball has be-
gun to have its influence on the Brit
ish Tommy. and in purely British
camps throughout England. baseball
is the spring raze this year. At the
front, also, in rest camps and training
quarters, the British privates are taxi
ing to the American national game.
The principal Limitation to the spread
of spring baseball is the difficulty Of
obtaining the necessary equipment.
~American baseball has this ad-
vantage over cricket and football"
says a British correspondent at the
front, namely. that it al be played
on fairly rough ground" Another
correspondent notes with some sur
prise that the game as played by the
Americans and Canadians is accom-
panied with a good deal Of noise. II
don't know. whether Tommy will
adopt the barracking methods which
seem to be an essential accompani-
ment to baseball from the American
and Canadian point Of view," he says.
But If he does, he will probably out
do his comrades from across the At
lantic in noise and fervor."

practically the only available servant
on the border, the negroes and Chi
