 Then. much to his astonishment, the man placed the gun to his shoulder, said "pull,'' and instantly black ob- ject was projected from the machine which the other man carried. With a. quick aim the gunner fired at the f1y- ing object and puff of black dust showed that his aim was accurate and he had centered his charge

H. Frazee, president of the club, said that the Boston club needed two in flelders. It also became known that the Red Sox management hopes to se- cure the services of Conway, star batsman of the Worcester club of the Eastern League.
 Joe Higgins. who has been commis- stoned as lieutenant in the Aviation Signal Corps, is now at Washington awaiting further instructions. Higgins expects to be a contender in Millrose six hundred next month in Madison Square Garden, providing he is in reas sonable distance of New York at that time.
 Frank Stephenson, formerly Trin- ity star. is now serving as first lieu tenant at Camp Wadsworth. Stephens son is happy in his berth and has his family living nearby. He is authority for the statement that athletic train ing has been a big help to him ani many of hs soldier friends in getting accustomed to hard military training. George Tyler, the southpaw twirler of the Braves. was a Christmas gift to his parents twenty eight years ago Il : N. H., and first played with Lowell in 1910, going to Boston the following season. While some people might ob- 1 ject to having a southpaw wished on | 'em by Santa Claus.

24. This makes the average amount to each player of the winning team about $3 5SS, while the individual share to the members of the losing teams has been $2,392. Against these figures the winning players will each receive $2,000 and the losing players $1,400 in the future.
 Carrying the analysis further, it will
 be found that the prize money to be awarded to the actual series players in the future will approximate $81,6oO.
 Using the previous mentioned average again, the difference between this sum and what the two teams divided in
 the past amounts to S61 ,9s5. This
 $61 955 is the amount to be divided among the players of the second, third end of the season.
 If the average number of players is assumed to be the same as on the pen nant winning clubs, this would mean
 that the AS players of the two second
 position clubs would receive 50 per
 cent. of the $61,955, or about $645
 each. The third place club players on the 30 per cent. basis would receive
 $3S7, and the fourth position club players s25S each.
 l To put it in other words, Instead of the players of two series clubs, amounting to 4S in all. dividing s14S,- 555 on 60 and 40 per cent. basis. the
 same sum will in the future be ap- portioned among the players of eight clubs, tha total number of men being approximately iJ2.
 No changes are to be made in the system of distribution used to allot gate receipts to the pennant winning club owners or the national commis- sion. The stockholders of the world | series clubs will divide equally their share of the receipts, which have avzr- 1 aged $159,4S2.97 during the past five WITS, after deducting 25 per cent. or i $39,870 for the other league clubs. The national commission will also receive | its full 10 per cent. share of the gate receipts, which has averaged s33 67G I during the same period.

There was a great shortage of dress lngs in the hospital, and all bandages were washed and used over and over again, My arm became infected from believe. a dirty bandage, and was suddenly laid up for about a week with a bad attack of erysipelas. I grew very impatient at getting no news as to when we were to leave for Constance; 1 could not settle down to work and almost gave up the study of French altogether. Most of my time was spent ln discussing with Barnes the possibility of being refused by the second commission. He was sure to go, as he had lost one eye, but my case was doubtful. He kept me in good spirits by continually telling me how bad my arm was.

DUCK HUNTING
 IN AEROPLANE
Several Members of the United States Aviation Corps Have Tried It and Say 1t Is Great Sport.
By Peter P. Carney

By Peter P. Carney Editor of National Sports Syndicate
 The rich who have time on their hands are on the trail of new form of sports, although it may be said in it's support that men of the aviation corps have very good argument in it's favor as an aid to marksmanship
 This new sport is nothing or less than hunting ducks by aeroplane, the incentive, of course, being the op- portunity for wing shooting against double speed. That is, the machine is travelling at bird speed while the ducks are likewise doing record work
 One of the. army corps says:
 There could be no better practice for marksInanship than to hunt fast flying birds like wild ducks in aero planes. The problem of maneuvering would be about the same as would be encountered in combat with a hostile flyer, and hitting flying ducks from an aeroplane going ninety miles an hour would require steady eye and hand"
 Do you think you would like to shoot this way?
 Or do you prefer to stay on the ground?
 Perhaps some of those New York boxing promoters are greatly surprised over the action of the hicks" in New Haven. They figured they would breeze right into the village pitch their tent, slap over a few boxing fakes and clean up. But not so that you could notice it.
