$65243 are scheduled in the inventory
of the personal estate of Rev. John A.
Tracy, late pastor of Our Lady of the
Presentation Church, St. Louis, Mo.
OF this amount $500 was invested in
Liberty Bonds and the balance in
cash. Father Tracy's friends say
that his investments were character
istic of the man himself. Born in
1852, he served as a drummer boy
with the Union Army in the Civil War.
His friends say his patriotism was an
obsessing passion, and that at every
opportunity he urged his parishioners
to be steadfast in their support of the
Government and organizations en-

After the "FIu" or Any Serious

Don't make the serious mistake
of thinking you are well as soon

especially true, but after any SER

The much touted Georgia Tesh

drubbing that hat team has sustain
ed in four years. The southerners
were not only scored upon, which is a
feat in itself. but were utterly routed
by the Panthers. Glenn Warmers

Heisman's and as a result the team
from the sunny side of the Mason
Dixon line wen back a sadder but
wiser lot to a 80 to 0 tune.
The Pittsburgh eleven scored In
every frame while in the last stanza
they heaped humiliation upon defeat
by registering twice. The Georgia

and as a team. Guyon, the much

was helpless against the strong north

Soldier Athletes =
Gaming Big Hold in France

The Frenchman Is by nature and
temperament a sportsman, and Is able
to leari American games very quickly
Unfortunately for the rapid growth OF
sports that require throwing and
catching, there have been no games
generally played in France that de-
veloped muscular coordination of the
hands, arms and shoulders. For this
reason baseball, basketball and volley
ball will prove especially valuable in
giving the French a well balanced de-
velopment.
Within the past few months the
French military authorities have
round this work of SO much benefit,
where conducted upon an informal
of1cfally appointed Foyer men in
charge of athletics In several training
camps and schools. In view of the
fact that rehabilitation is expected to
to extend over a considerable period
these appointees and others are likely
to retain their bille.s for a long
time. Among those now serving IN
this capacity are included:
Lawrence O'Connor athletic direc-
tor for the aviation school at Pau,
where the commandant has ordered
all men on duty there to devote three
quarters of an hour each day to
sports. Mr.. O'Connor m from
New York city. At Camp de Ger. r.
L.. Wiggin has assumed charge OF the
athletic program. He comes from
Limerick. Maine, is a Bowdoin col
lege graduate, and was superintendent
of schools before taking up Y. M. C.
A. work in France. Raymond L.
Carnes of Omaha. is directing sports
at Agen, another training center in
the southern part Of France. He Is a
Dartmouth man and was supervisor
OF physical education in Omaha. The
experience gained in his work at home
has enabled him to achieve signal
success among the French students
placed under his charge.

Babe Ruth--The Star of 1918
Baseball

Barrow. taking advantage of Babes
mighty physique, solved the problem
by pitching Ruth in his regular turn
in the box and using him In the put
field in other games.
The writer was talking to Ruth last
June just after he had broken the
worlds record for home run in con-
secutive games by hitting four homo
runs in four days, one each day, and
asked him what was his method of
hitting.
"Poohl' said Babe, with q grin,
take a good grip on the bat, dig IN
your toes and swing"
While Ruth did not equal Socks
Seyboid's American league record Of
sixteen home runs In a season, this
may have been due TO the curtailment
of play on account of the war.
The American league fans are
eagerly awaiting the opening OF the
1912 season to see IL Ruth will come
back, and wagers have already been
laid that he viii beat Seyboid's reo-
ord text year.

that Baker hit up Z rom the very

NEW YORK Nov. 25-The remark
able hold which the American athlet-
les and sport gained in France with
the entry of the United States army
is being illustrated in many ways and
there are indications that the return
to peaceful conditions will only aug
ment this popularity. Competent OBJ
servers hold firmly to the opinion that
the coming years will witnessa won
derful growth In international sport
competition the seeds of which have
been sown by the soldier in khaki and
those who entered Europe with him
in advisory or other helpful capacity.
That the French army authorities
realized the value of athletics as ex-
and sailor is shown by appointment
of special instructors fromoaTeaight
G. A. Foyer du Soddat ranks. These
American coaches are faced by a most
unusual and complicated task but
have tackled the work with the vim
SO characteristic in sport in this
vicinity and are already able to re-
port encouraging progress. They
found themselves confronted from the
start by conditions that have no par
allel in the United States. At home,
the coach practically never has to
teach the fundamentals Of any game,
his pupils acquire those In childhood.
But IN France, attn etics must be
built from the ground up" Instead
of organizing and continuing sports
that are already well known, the
Foyer du Soldat men must be liter
ally pioneers.
As the first problem is to teach new
games. the work is necessarily e1e-
mentary. Instead of taking material
that is well grounded In the things
desired and putting a fine edge on the
individual skill and teamwork, the
American working with the French
must treat his task entirely from
the standpoint Of amusement and dis
traction.

This is the fourth race that the To-
cal runner has competed In within the
last two weeks and In all four he has
proxen without a doubt hat he is the
best middle distance n in the
east. Baker has beaten no less than
eighty good In his four starts
and has conceded the majority Of
them large handicaps, giving many as
much as f1fty-five yards. Homer
takes the heart out of his opponents
In the very first few hundred yards by
