Athletic Programme
Arranged for Our
Soldiers Abroad

PARIS, Nov. ga greatly enlarged
athletic programme has been prepared
by the Y. NJ. C. A. for the period dur
ing rehabilitation. At the request of
the army there will be athletics for
soldiers two hours each day to take
the place in part of drill. In charge of
the Y. M. c. A. athletics is Elwood S.
Brown, who, while in the Philippines,
did the same work with General Har-
board and the commander in chiefs
present athletic officer.
The programme is divided into four
parts. There will be mass exercises
and athletics in each battalion and
regiment. Second, there will be cham
pionship events for the American Ex-
peditionary Force, working up with
elimination contests through COM
panies, battalions, regiments, divisions,
corps and armies. There will be a
pageant to show the French the best
in American athletic life, also gym
nastic A B C to help develop the
French.
The armistice practically doubles
the number of men to train and greatly
increases the need Of physical direc-
tors and funds. The vast army ply
.sical development programme with the
Y. NJ. c. A. cooperation means much
t9r the American physique.
! Isolated detachments will be drawn
into larger concentrations to enable
the men to have the benefit of this
athletic programme The events will
constitute practically an Olympiad
among the American and Allied forces

Brooklyn Navy Yard
To Play Camp Mills
For Service Title

The football teams of Camp Mills
and the Brooklyn navy yard will de-
eide the service championship of
Greater New York on Thanksgiving
Day at the New York University Sta
dium, 139th Street and Columbus Ave-
nue.. The game has been arranged by
the New York War Camp Community
Service as part of it's celebration Of
Thanksgiving Day and will be the only
important game in the city on that
day.
Both teams claim the championship
of the city and their supporters say
that there will be no doubt about
who's champion after the game
Men in uniform will be admitted
free to the game, which will start at
$3.50 so as to allow them to enjoy
their THANKSGIVING dinner. Fifty thou
sand dinners are to be provided
through the War Camp Community
Service.
The public will pay 25 cents admis-
sion and 81 for reserved seats. The
money obtained from admissions is to
be used by the New York War Camp
Community Service to buy "smokes"
for the men who spend their furloughs
or who are mustered out in New York
City.
During the next few days tickets for
the game will be sold by theatrical
stars, members of the girls division
of the War Camp, and many clubmen
and automobile owners throughout the
city.

Another Freak
PlayCrops Up
In Baseball

Some of the chief charms of baseball,
according to a famous veteran, are the
new plays and situations which con-
stantly arise in diamond battles. 1t is
doubtful, however, if he ever conceived
of situation similar to that which
arose during a game played in New
England during the last summer.
1t was in the fifth inning, with three
runners on the bases and none out,
when a batter stepped to the plate.
Right at his heels came the next player
entitled to bat, who took position just
step or two away from the batter s
box. The batter hit sharp bounder
directly at the pitcher and dashed for
first base, while all the runners raced
around the bases toward home.
1t appeared to be an easy matter to
throw out the player attempting to
score from third at the plate, and the
pitcher promptly threw to the catcher,
who was all set to complete the play.
happened. The man who had been
awaiting his turn at the bat jumped
into position, and as the ball shot
across the plate took mighty swing at
, it, driving the ball far into the out
field for home run, five runs crossing
the plate before the ball could be re-
trieved.
Something resembling a riot among
the players of the two teams and the
partisan spectators Immediately de-
veloped, and there was rush for the
umpire. After much argument the ar
bitter declared the hit and subsequent
runs legally scored, basing his decision
upon the fact that both the pitcher and
catcher were in their respective posi-
tions when the ball was thrown up tc
the plate. Not satisfied with this rul-
ing, the losing team took the case tc
high baseball authorities, who, after 6
careful study of the circumstances, re.
versed the umpire's verdict. 1t was
their decision, which has generally beer
accepted as correct, that the runner at.
tempting to score from third was out
owing to the interference of the batter
who, by hitting the ball thrown to com.
plete the play at the plate, prevented
the put-out being accomplished.

Chance | in 10000
To Make Golf Hole
In |, Says Expert

While every golfer knows that to
make hole in one stroke is a mere
gamble; it has remained for profes
sional to demonstrate the law of chance
in these cases to be substantially one
in 1000, the figures offered by Lloyds,
of London.
Robert Johnstone, professional at the
Seattle Golf Club, recently made hole
IN one for the second time in his
twenty-four years on the links. The
only other time that Johnstone ever
made hole in one stroke was at the
old Preside course in San Francisco in
1901, year after he came from Scot
land. On that occasion he used an old
guttapercha ball.
tombstone has been playing golf
since he was ten years of age, so he
had played about seventeen years be-
fore he obtained his 1 at the Preside
course, and seventeen years elapsed
before he repeated the feat
Johnstone figures that he has aver
aged about eighteen holes day, wear
in and year out, for seventeen wears
AT the rate he played in that time g.
576,75O strokes. But there were only
an average of three holes to each round
on the links he played where it was
possible to make hole in one, and this
would mean that in seventeen years, al
an average round day, he would have
played 1855 short holes.

Two Former Stars
May Rejoin Harvard
For Brown Contest

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Nov. 23.--If Har-
ward desires the services of two former
football stars for the Brown game
there is possibility that they may re-
turn to gridiron harness. Yesterday
word was received at the college office
that Billy Murray, quarterback in
1916. and "Swede" Nelson, a husky
guard of the second team, expect to be
mustered out of the naval service
shortly and are anxious to return to
their Harvard desks. Both are en-
signs, Murray being attached to Ad-
miral Jones's staff. Nelson is an in
structor. Both are now at Newport
News, Va.
Harvard doesn't expect hard fight
against Brown, although the Bruins
have plucky team and one about the
Crmson's equal in weight Harvard's
rush line will average about ITO pounds
a man, and Browns forwards perhaps
two or three pounds heavier.
Another game in the Stadium the
coming week takes place Thanksgiving
afternoon. Naval Radio is one of the
contestants. and some one has Cooked
up" something for the wireless team
by opposing them to the Little Build
ing eleven. The headquarters team
would prove an easy proposition for
Radio, but some bright mind has had
number of stars drafted from differ
! ent other stations to the headquarters
building, and the Cambridge team is
apt to get trimming for its eagerness
to accommodate the only other team
which stands between it and the naval
championship of the district.

Two 80-Yard Runs
Enable Wisconsin
To Beat Ohio State

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 23.-Pennsyl-
vania evened accounts with Swarthmore
this afternoon on Franklin Field, de-
feating the Garnet 13 to in the sec
ond match between these two institu-
tions played this year. Three weeks
ago Swarthmore trimmed the Penn
eleven, 20 to 2, but the Red and Blue
to-day outplaycd their rivals through
out the game, showing better team
work, headwork and gameness.
A brief flash of individual effort in
the third period, when Geigs made a
fifty five yard run for touchdown, ac-
counted for Swarthmore's on.y score.
McNichol, Braun and Hopper starred
for Penn, while Geigs, Larkin and
Howell did the bulk Of the work for
Swarthmore.
Hopper tackled Geigs heavily, both
sprawling ON the turf. Geigs fumbled
when he hit the ground and Hopper
batted the ball with his hand toward
the ~Jarthmore goal. Frank, Penn
guard, came along just in time to pick
up the bounding sphere and carry it
over for a touchdown.

that he guided the young league we'll
through its early history and won a
war against the National League. He
vas the first president. and has held
the chair continuously.
Because of his craftsmanship in con-
fning behind closed doors whatever
bitterness and prejudices may have
been engendered among his henchmen
the regime Of Johnson, upon the sur
face at least, has been one sweet dream
characteristic strife of the National
League. But of late years his solons
it is said, have resented Johnson's haste
in acting as mouthpiece on serious
topics without having consulted them.
Especially is this true Of last years
administration. Ban made several false
steps, it is averred. His proposal to
ask immunity for the ball players was
resented. Later hip flop in the other
direction-the idea of locking up the
ball parks until the end of the war
was equally restned. So was his propo-
sition for a major league invasion OF
Newark's territory TO rSunday games

Ban NOT 10 BE Ou6te0
Whether justly or unjustly, johnson
and Hermann between them generally
are credited with having organized
baseball put into disfavor with the Ad
ministration. 1t is felt judicious han
ding might have saved the game from
te work or fight" order.
There is no reason to believe that the
American League magnaies will go sc
far as to oust their president or ever
suggest his resignation unless he re.
fuses to subscribe to limited powers
In short, his colleagues will ask only
that he subscribe to. approved presl-
dental powers and forego the auto
cratic. 1t is intended that Ban shall
share his voice of authority with duly
constituted committees.
1t was planned to keep this bloodless
revolution under cover till after the
annual meeting of the American
League in Chicago, SO as to infer that
the dictatorial policies had been fore.
sworn voluntarily by the American
League president. But baseball people
have a penchant for talking. Else how
