CAMP DIX MEN
TO PLAY FOOTBALL

Sol Metzger has developed a splendid
football proposition for Camp Dix.
where he is the coach and athletic di-
rector. Metzger's idea is not TO bring
out only one camp eleven. or even two
or three. He wants every man 10 play
The game. Particularly is he trying to
get graduates OF various New Jersey
schools 30 organize alumni elevens and
play their schools. He writes Of his
idea as follows
'The purpose OF these contests Is 10
develop more interest in footballs IN
this camp and In the schools. as We'll
as % raise funds for the purchase 0f
athletic equipment FOR the soldiers
here. We are planning 10 develop va
riOus eleyens within this camp, most
OF them representing the alumni Of the
various schools. During the season
we hope 10 have these elevens play
each other In this way an interschool
schedule viii be run on here. Then
when dates are arranged these various
eleyens will visit their home towns FOR
games with their local schools.

much OF value football has I'm mill

batiye games which develop The traits

RED CROSS NEEDS
WOMEN FOR CANTEENS

A cable received from the foreign
commission OF the American Red Gross
asks for two thousand women fer can
teen and hospital hut service TO be sent
over during the next six weeks. OF this
number The Pennsylyania-Delaw d.
vision must supply one hundred and
eighty.
In order TO render the most efficient
service TO troops in canteens and hos
pital huts abroad, these women should
be strong, cheerful good-lO0king, ener-
getic and typically American.
Women who are good mixers and
have a social gift are particularly
valuable for this work; music, ability
10 read aloud well, and TO organize en-
tertainments are important assets. The
knowledge Of French is useful, but not
essential. An ability to do good team
work with the other women In charge
OF the hut is essential. Candidates must
be between the ages OF % and 30.
Volunteers who viii pay their own
expenses are preferred for this serv-
fee, but good candidates will be ac-
cepted, who are willing 70 serve for
equipment. transportation and GOO
francs a month, it being understood that
an equitable reduction Will be made
when all or parts Of quarters ana sus-
tenance are furnished.
Each volunteer must MI out an appli-
cation blank and secure three letters
OF recommendation. The blanks may be
obtained from the secretary Of the Red
Cross, Miss Bissell, ii0i Franklin
street, and when filled out should be
returned 10 her with the three letters.

GAS BY MILLION
GALLONS SAVED

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.-The sutoles:
Sunday restriction will not be removed
as q means OF amellorating the epidemic
OF Influenza, and II the ban Is lifted
within the next few weeks II will be
replaced by a rationing Of gasoline
through limitation on It's sale.
Doctor Garfield, fuel administrator,
made this plain when, acting upon the
advice Of Brigadier General Richards
acting surgeon general Of the army, he
declined 10 accept the suggestion OF
General Mccall. Of Massachusetts,, that
the regulation be set aside next Sunday
so people could get out Of crowded
places and away from the plague
General Richards, in a letter 10 Doc
tor Garfield, declared automobiling
would not influence the epidemic one
way or the other.
Doctor Garfield also was strongly in
fluenced by reports Of fresh depletlons
in the stock OF gasoline IN the United
states available for overseas shipment
and II was in connection with these re-
ports that he indicated that plans TO
put gasoline consumers on a ration
were being considered.
ACCORDING 10 ugureS cOulpileu Dy tne

the fuel administration the total OF
available gasoline in the United States,
outside Of California, for the week end

barrels Of motor gasoline and PSI 900
barrels Of aviation gasoline. This is a
decrease from a stock OF about 1000
600 barrels on Auril 4, and 100000 bar
rels on August 4.
The saving accomplished by the auto

said, has been so notable that the auto

patriotism until the fuel administration
could devise another method OF con-
serving a quantity Of gas which would

Want Men With Keen Eyes
for Motor Transport Corps

Considerable, frst-class material for
the personnel Of the newly organized
Motor Transport Corps Of the American
EXpeditionary Force can be found
among the many thousands Of trap
shooters who are serving with the
colors and from those who VIII soon
respond 20 the call 10 do battle With the
Hun.
Trapshooters are essentially sports
men OF the highest order and the driv-
ing Of a truckload Of ammunition in
the front line zone lover there" Is re-
sentially a sporting proposition. One
can well imagine how the average trap
shooter would jump at the chance for
immediate service overseas and in the
very thick OF the most stirring dOings.
There is nothing suggestive Of a
"bomb-proof" Job about a service which
sends stout hearts along roads under
enemy fire with needed rations for the
boys in the front line trenches, or
speeding up 10 the limit 10 carry shells
to batteries OF artillery whose guns are
keeping up a ceaseless drumfre on the
hordes OF Prussianism.
Driving at night without lights, when
humping into a cargo Of ammunition
aboard the truck in front would mean
the wiping out OF both trucks and their
crews, is a real job for a real sports
man and just the sort OF a sporting
proposition that would appeal to the
fellows who have had their eyes made
keen and their every faculty alert on
the trapshooting firing line.
"GO on" is the motto Of the Motor
Transport Corps, and that means so
on in every sense; go on when roads
are bad, go on when a truck is ditched
IN the darkness or turns turtle at the
bottom OF a shell crater. The trucks
must be gotten out Of their difficulties,
often under shellhre, for they must 90
Evening journal., 1918-10-05

on lest a position be lost through a
battery's supply OF ammunition becQm-
ing exhausted.
Thousands Of trapshooters are own
ers OF automobiles and find pleasure,
second only TO the enjoyment Of "the
patriotic sport" In driving their cars.
This class Of trapshooters would get
actual enjoyment out OF driving an
army truck with all the thrills that
accompany it under battle conditions.
A New Branch OF Service.
The Motor Transport Corps Is a new
organization which takes over from the
Quartermaster and other branches OF
the United States army all motorized
vehicles except tractors and tanks. The
new corps will comprise approximately
200 700 men and 5000 officers.
A deluge OF applications for service
in the Motor Transport Corps has
poured into the headquarters at Wash
lngtOn. Among those applying are ex-
ecutives Of big business and manufac-
turing concerns, automobile manufac-
turers and dealers, wealthy motor en-
thusiasts, bankers. lawyers, automobile
racers. college athletes, officers OF nom
combatant branches OF the army, me
chanlcs and others representing every
walk OF life. Men in cantonments
throughout the country are requesting
transfer TO the corps because OF the
certainty OF service on the other Side.
The Officers Training Camp OF the
Motor Transport Corps is said TO have
a long waiting list" OF men who see
in this service opportunities for active
duty OF a most attractive character.
While on the subject, II might not
be amiss to suggest that a liberal sup
ply OF trench shotguns would likely
prove valuable as part OF the equipment
for those who drive the trucks with
their precious loads.
