street.
Tom was killed in battle in France
July 18th Of the present year while
lighting for the Democracy Of the

William G. Carroll grew to- manhood
in this city, and was genuine fav-
orite with all of the young people,
He was an expert swimmer and during
the summer months attracted great
deal of notice by his swimming ability.
This talent was the means of his earn

captain of his company was missing.
Volunteers were called for to search
the river for the officer, and Tom,

the shore

A letter from his uncle living at
Plummer states that Fred was born
at Axeltarp Kristianstad Lau, Swed-
en-, coming to this county in June,
1912. He worked on farms in the
summer, and in the coal mines in the
winter months, being employed in the
vicinity of Noonan, when he enlisted.
1t has been impossible to secure in
formation as to the extent of his in

but it is sincerely hoped that he will
recover rapidly and will feel no fu-
ture i'll effects from his experience in
fighting the terrible Huns.

New-York tribune., 1918-07-07
BY Fred Hawthorne

The North Side doubles champion
ship passed into the keeping of Ben
Letson, former national boy champion
and Fred G. Anderson, jr., of Brooklyn,
almost without the semblance of a
struggle yesterday afternoon on the
clay courts of the University Heights
Tennis Club when they defeated w. H.
Benedict and Edward Randall at 6-1,
Go, Ga in the final round of the
tournament.
Letson and his partner we're regard
ed as the probable winners before the
men took the court, but nobody imag-
ined their margin of victory would be
by such decisive score. The new
champions succeed Francis T. Hunter
apd A. j. Ostendorf as the title hold
championship in 1916. Both are now
in the service.
The cause Of the crushing defeat of
Benedict and Randall is not far to
seek. Randall was directly responsible,
tor it was his weakness at all times
that made the match runaway affair.
In the final set he managed to steady
himself for a while, but the effort
came too late, and Letson and Ander-
son, working beautifully together as a
team, regained the lead after trailing
at 2-3 on games and took the set at
Cd, which gave them the match and
the championship.
Match Is Delayed
The match was scheduled to begin at
1880 o'clock, but it was almost an hour
and half later before play actually
began, Letson being detained at the
last minute by press of business.
The new champions got off to a com
manding lead almost from the start,
aiming their principal attack at Ran
dali, whom they quickly recognized as
the weak spot in the opposing court.
Both Letson and Anderson are tall and
both were steadier than usual overhead
Randall attempted at times to lob them

test by score of to i. Eddie
"Knuckle Ball" Cicotte WAS the Chi
cago pitcher, and had it not been for
"boot" by the usually reliable Eddie
Collins in the fourth inning there
would probably have been a deadlock
at l to l by the time the ninth rolled
around.
The pitchers in the second battle
were Reb Russell for the White Sox
and Hank Robinson for the Yanks,
Russell gaining the honors by 8 to
2 count. Each boxman waa found for
eight safe hits, but Robinson was
handicapped greatly in his work by five
errors his teammates made.
Hannah. Bodie, Miller and Peckin-
paugh were the offenders. and if there
be anything, commendable in error
making, Ping Bodie deserves the laur-
els, for he contributed one of the
weirdest throws that have ever been
perpetrated under Coogar's Bluff. Ping

there was so much power behind the
toss that the horsehide sailed over
Truck Hannah's head and struck the
screen near the Yankee bench on the
fly.
Three Games Behind Leaders
The Yankees lost two points in the
club standing as a result of their after
Moons endeavOrs but still remain in
third place, only three games behind
the leading Red Sox, who wrested the
van position from the Cleveland In
dians. The closeness of the race Is
shown by the following averages for
the three leaders: Boston, 575; Cleve-
land, 1885, and New York, .557.

ing two minor league players to seek
work in an essential line or be placed
IN class l, he virtually admitted, how
ever that IN SO far as the minor
leagues are concerned the outlook is
very gloomy. He then proceeded to
explain the difference between the
status of the majors and that Of the
minors.
1T must be remembered" he said
"that according to the working of the
OF the draft law man cannot be re-
moved from deferred class and
placed in class 1 for engaging in q
so-called non-essential occupation
when to change his work entails a
great financial hardship. In the case
of these two men and other minor
leaguers it must be considered that
their salaries are small, and it is
patent that their earning capacity in a
more essential industry would be
equal to if not greater than their
baseball stipend.
con the other hand it is equally
certain that a major league PLAYER
would be subjected to severe financial
hardship if called upon to give up a
line of work netting him anywhere
from four to eight hundred dollars a
month to go into something which
would pay him far less.
There is q certain routine to be
gone through before definite ruling
is reached. The matter will be ap-
pealed if an adverse ruling is made
by local board on a test case. It
will be carried to the President if
need be, and all those things take
time. If it be deemed necessary to
force major league players into an
other line of work the final decision
will not be reached until the present
season is about over"

Eddie stole third, and scored on a
mighty smash to centre by j. Collins.
The ball sailed far over the head of

right in attempting to cover the circuit

out into centre field to take Miller's
throw, got the ball away from him so
quickly and with such accuracy that j.
Collins perished at the plate.
The Yankees added another tally in

ST. LOUIS. July 6.-Brooklyn opened

trounclng st. Louis in a close game
by score of to 1. During the early
innings the Dodgers were kept far
from the plate through the masterful
pitching of Lee Meadows, the be-

then weakened and was soon driven
from the mound.
Don Burleigh Grimes, the BROOKLYN
