UNHAPPY GERMANS CLINGING
TO WATERWAYS IN THE WEST

in great numbers. Journal. for ex-
ample, which is closely invested by
the British, appears to be full OF CIV
ilians, who, thanks to the chivalry of
the British forces. are in no Danger
excepting from the Huns; The British
have religiously refrained from she'll
ing towns along the line, even though
it might be of military advantage to
do SO. On the other hand, the enemy
has been venting his hate on villages
in the allied territory along the line.
Last night several places were she'll
ed with high explosives and gas
shells and casualties were caused
among the Inhabitants.
Defend Waterway. Positions.
The Germans are defending their
present waterway positions vigorous
ly.. although holding considerable
stretches mainly with machine guns
along the eastern side of the rivers
and canals. Some infantry reliefs are
being made along the line, but all the
German troops are tired, 50 that such
a change makes very little difference
to the strength of the enemy.
Ideal weather has brought out great
fleets of allied airplanes and the Ger
mans themselves are not idle. Yes
terday along one stretch Of the front
between Journal and St Armand the
British destroyed nine hostile planes
and sent three more down out of con-
troll. The British have absolute domi-
nance of the air.

JUST A YEAR AGO
Temperance Forces Pleased
at Results Obtained I'm
der Prohibition.
FAVOR BoNE-DRY ACTION

Today marks the first anniversary
of the legal death, in the District Of
Columbia, of old John Barleycorn.
Members of the temperance forces to-
day expressed regret that John was
not buried shortly after death. and. as
one OF them expressed 1t, his wake Is
covering too long q period.
Temperance forces and police ofd-
Gals agree that much good has been
accomplished by the enactment Of the
law. and while they regret the condi-
lions brought about by hundreds OF
persons openly bringing liquor from
Baltimore every day. they say they
feel that conditions will be bettered
In the near future.
Police. records show a decided de.
crease in cases of drunkenness and
a corresponding increase in cases of
bootlegging. Albert e. Shoemaker,
counsel for the Anti-Saloon League,
an organization that labored to &C
complfsh the closing of saloons point
ed to the fact that hundreds of fami-
lies that suffered because of the ex-
istence Of open saloons now are happy
and being properly cared for.
While Maj. Pullman, superintendent
of police, believes much good has been
bition law. he thinks further legiala-
ton Is necessary to correct existing
conditions. Application of the Reed
bone-dry amendment, he thinks.
would make Washington dry In re-
atty.
Operation Satisfactory.
Speaking to q Star reporter today.
Maj. Pullman said:
Considering the fact that the Dis
trict OF Columbia Is the only prohibi-
ton territory in the United States to

operation of the Sheppard prohibition
law during the first year has been
most satisfactory.
1T has not only been held in the
courts that the Reed amendment.

here, but it has also been ruled in
the courts that, contrary to the spirit
Of the prohibition law, a person may
bring as much liquor into the Dis
trict of Columbia as he desires, even
truckload lot. providing he says
| it Is for his own personal use. This
necessarily encourages bootlegging.

new STARS COME
The Old Ones Rapidly Pass
Into Ranks of Forgotten.
War Will Affect Career Of
Many Sport Idols.
BY JACK vEIOCK.

New York, May 16.-Faded stars OF
the world of sport are soon forgotten
by the fans once they move out of the
limelight. .-'
New heroes, new faces. new idols
and new conquests claim attention.
The sport world demands a constant
ly changing scene. AS one by one
the heroes of yesterday pass along
they are soon forgotten.
The present world conflict is going
to work some startling changes. The
sports map will be changed, just as
the maps of nations may change as a
result of the war. 4
Many Stars in War.
Stars in many branches of sports
are now enlisted under the Stars and
Stripes. Some of them will never
come back, while other who see it
thru lover there will return only to
find that they have been passed by the
constantly changing parade and are
too far behindSto catch up with the
bell cows.
r. Norris Williams II, national ten
mis- champion, will have been stripped
of his title by theatime the national
singles event is finished this summer.
Francis Ouimet, tho he plays golf con-
stantly, may pass along from the gold
en- glow of the spotlight as many other
great golfers now in the service will
undoubtedly pass.
What of Alexander?
Grover Cleveland Alexander, rated
as the greatest of pitchers, has an I'M
certain future before him in baseball,
now that he has been called in the
draft, and the same goes for any
other star ball player who answers
the call to the colors.
But the fans will soon forget, just
as they have forgotten Freddie Welsh,
Willie Richie and Abe Attell; just as
they have forgotten Tod Sloan and
other great jockeys, and just as Ed
Walsh, Johnny Killing, Honus Wagner
and John Evers have passed from the
spotlight of public mention. The
names of these stars of past days will
always be found on the roll of honor
but the public no longer is interested
in them.
