stored up in our memories until after
the war 10 over Then there will
come . time when we can rive free
rein to our minds and tongues and
keep the home folks listening for a.
good long while - we reproduce the
impressions we have gsthered during
our stay in France. Now while We
are engaged in beating our enemies.
we have to subdue our desires to tell
all we know. It is for the good Of
the service and the welfare Of the
cause for which we are fighting.
This trip to France is not picnic
Tor holiday affair during which we can
harmlessly tell nj that is going Oh
and all the sxperiences We IN having.
s51 hass d. foIlow eeFtaili definite
rules laid down BY thu censor when
We write home. Everybody in the
army is gladly living up to- those
rules. You folks in the states are
undoubtedly receiving more news

happening over here than we do, 30
that the best thing we can write home
and that will interest you mostis that

Grimm-WaIcott Battle.

It was IS years ago today, Sept. II, 1903, that Joe Grimm stayed six rounds with Joe WaIcott at Phiiadel- phia. Although the Barbadoes Demon was then welterweight cham pion, and had whipped Joe Choynski and other big men, he could not van quish the famous Italian, whose name still stands as synonym for dura- bility. Walcott was by no means dis graced however, for Grimm took, 'em all on, from lightweights all the way up the line to heavyweights, and assimilated everything they had to offer. He was knocked down re- peatedly in nearly every fight, but never took the count while he was in his prime. In 1905 Jack Johnson tried to knock out the doughty Phil adelphian, but failed, as had Bob Fitzsimmons in 1903, and a host of others among them Al Kaufman, Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, Young Peter Jackson and Joe Cans Grimm repeatedly challenged Jim Jeffries, but the big boilermaker wisely side stepped the matter. It was not until after he had his dome cracked by a policemans club in an election TOW that Grimm over went down for the count. He was never the same after that, and soon retired from the ring, to be remembered by the fight fans as the game guy, who, although he was knocked down, wouldn't stay down.

SENIOR GOLFERS
 AT APAWAMIS
Big Field of Starters in Sen iors Golf Contests Begun
 Yesterday at Rye, N. Y.

There were 176 starters in the 14th annual tournament of the Seniors Golf Association over the links of the Apawamis Club at Rye, N. Y, yes terday. After another day on the course these will make way for per haps as many more who will engage in round of medal play today and Friday. The annual dinner, which is to be held in the Apawamis club house tonight, will give all those who have entered this years tournament a chance to come together.
 This time Dr. William Jarvie, of Bass Rocks Golg Club, Gloucester, Mass, appears to be the dean of the first contingent, at least, but it must be said that Dr. Jarvie does not look like his TT years He played around in 1O1. and with an allowance of 25 was only two strokes away from Messrs. Wright and Clafin on the net. George H. N. Johnson, of Brooklawn, partnered Dr. Jarvie, the combined age of the pair being more than 151 years. Another interesting couple was Horace L. Hotchkiss, of Apa- wamis, the father of the seniors tournament" 76 years old, and the Rev. J. Mcbride Sterrett, of Chevy Chase, who is 75.
 Darwin P. Kingsley of Sleepy Hollow, well known golfer and man of affairs. made second best gross of S9, but James A. Tyng, of the Ma tional links, and c. G, Waldo, of Brooklawn. who both played from scratcR scored 94 and 95, respec- lively.
 Others who are taking part in the tournament from the Brooklawn and Weatogue Country Clubs are:
 Jonathan Godfrey, Brooklawn, 96 gross, IT handicap, 79 net; Clarke Wilcox, Weatogue, 1O1 gross, 20 handicap, 81 net; Judge Howard J. Curtis, Weatogue, 10S gross, IS handi- cap, S5 net; George H. A. Johnson, Brooklawn, 11S gross, 30 handicap, SS net; J. M. Otis, Weatogue, 114 gross. 26 handicap, ss net; Charles G. Waldo, Brooklawn, s5 gross, c handicap, 95 net.

The PhiIIies' First Stacker.

Fred Luderus, first baseman of the Phillies, will be 32 years old tomor- row, having been born on Sept. IF, 1886. Luderus claims Milwaukee as his native city, and the Cream City doesn't mind. Fred's juvenile ambi- tion to shine as a ball player was at first the subject for much mirth, for he was a rather awkward and un- gainly youth in appearance. After serving a long apprenticeship with several amateur and semi-profes- sional clubs, Luderus got his real pro- fessional start about 12 years ago with Eddie Herr's Winnipeg club. With the Pegs" Luderus developed into a classy first sacker, but his batting while with the western Canadian me tropolis was only fair.
 Luderus left Winnipeg in 1908, and the following season wore the uniform of the Freeport, H., club of the Wisconsin Illinois League. While in Winnipeg he hadn't patted much over the 200 mark, but with F'reeport he landed on the leather for an average of '.321. At the close of the season he was drafted by the Cubs, and started the 1910 season in a Windy City uniform. In mid-season he was sold to the Phillies, who were badly in need of first sacker. Fred did so well that in 1911 he won a regular berth. In 1915 Luderus had his best batting season when he averaged .315. He ended the 1918 campaign with an average of .2S9, and while this shows falling off, nevertheless Fred is con- sidered a dangerous man by the Ma tional League pitchers.

FAIRY WAND BOLTS.
 AND LOSES STAKE.
Darts to Outer Rail While
 Leading Her Field in Man haitian Handicap.

Faty Wand, the speedy but fll-tem- pered lilly belonging to Gifford A. Cochran, probably is the unluckiest thoroughbred in training. While lead ing her field by several lengths in the Manhattan Handicap at Belmont Park yesterday afternoon she ran out" and lost so much ground that the best she could do was finish third behind Jo- seph B. Widener's Naturalist and s. c. Hildreths' Sun Flash II.
 Fairy Wand was much the best in the race, and if 1t were not for her desire to race along the outer rail she would have scored an easy victory. During the last month this f1eet-foot- ed miss has lost half a dozen races l she should have won.
 In her first start at Saratoga she | was practically left at the post with Georgie Walls in the saddle and fin ished a bang up third. A few days later Frankie Robinson punished he1 SD severely with the whip that she re- fused to do her best and finished third when she should have won.
 The next day with Willie Midgley Dr., on her back she came back and ran a fine race, but tired near the judges and was beaten scant mar gin for premier honors. The following week young Midgley rode her to vic tory, but in her last start at the Spa she was knocked out of her stride al the head of the stretch by Ticket and was badly beaten.
 Last Thursday she led home a field of high class horses at Belmont Park but during the race she bolted to the outside fence and was disqualified.
 Yesterday she got away from the barrier next to the last, but in the run down the backstretch showed tre mendous speed and rounding the bend took command. She was full of run ming and sped along at a terrific clip three lengths ahead of her field. Wher she reached the turn into the home stretch she darted over to the oute1 Trail. This cost her at least a dozel lengths.
 When strengthened again she ra1 much faster than any of her oppo nents, but the ground she lost wa too much for her to overcome, and a the end of the journey she was fou lengths behind Naturalist, the victor and a head behind Sun Flash 2d.
 The Ronkonkoma Handicap for jul l veniles at six furlongs went to Rober L. Gerry's bay colt Balustrade. H, came with a rush in the final furlon and won by a length and half. Rich ard T. Wilson, Jr's, Thistledon fin ished second and J. W. Mays Fly away was third.

CUBS TAKE FIFTH CAME IN THE
 WORLDS CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES

in the third Hollocher walked on four straight balls. He took a long lead off first and at the very instant Jones let go to the ball to catch him he dashed for second. He probably would have made it anyway, as he had flying start, but Stuffy had to go down on his knee to stop the throw and had no chance to hurry the ball along. Mann. who also batted in one of Chicago's s runs yesterday doubled, and Hollo- cher scored, while Mitchells face beamed with joy.
 Nothing further developed until the last of the fourth, when Strunk dou- bled to right. Whiteman popped up g. fly as harmless as a soft rubber tor pedo, and Merkle caught McInnis's wicked liner and relayed it to Hollo- cher Tor g. double play.
 Thomas. singled for Boston in the | fifth with one out, but was eradicated | by a HoIlocher- Pick -Merkle double. In t's9 sixth Whiteman saved at least one nun and no one will ever know how many more. Hollocher singled. Mann flied out and Paskert walkedI Merkle came up with two on and sin gled sharply to left. Hollocher was rounding third as Whiteman got the ball on the LDund. The Cub short stop, who can run faster than a bull dog, slid into the plate, but White mans perfect throw beat him to it and he was distressed to behold Hank O'Day's thumb extended toward the distant horizon.
 | There were still two men on. Pick hit sharply toward a vacant spot back of second but Strunk, by sprinting 35 yards in nothing fiat, caught the ball. For moment Mitchell looked as if he were going to suffer a hem C-rhage of the brain, but he recovered and the doctor put back the hypoder- mic of sweet oil which he had been preparing to inject.
 In Eioston's part of the sixth, which was as barren of fruit as a plum tree in February, Paskert caught a long fly in centre field, and just for exer- else, threw the ball on a line straight into Killifer's hands. The fans ap- plauded. If a man had been scooting for home from third probably he lwould have thrown it through some body's wind shield.
 Boston fans began to root in unison for a run in the lucky seventh. Two or three harmless but agile nuts be- gan waving their hands, a la college cheering, and soon about 24,929 out of the 25,O00 were clapping their hands in mad sort of rhythm and screech- ing like demons. Apparently Vaughn was deaf to it all. At least he ap- lpeared to be no more affected than was some solitary farmer hoeing po- tatoes in the distant stretches oi ArooStook county.
 The lucky seventh was as full o1 good fortune for the Red Sox as g mild winter to the village undertaken
 Whiteman got a hit with one down but McInnis hit into a double play via the popular and much-travelleG route, Hollocher-P Pick Merkle.

Joe Horning has rounded out 50 yrs. in baseball and just before the gates closed for the season at the Polo Grounds in New York, was the re- cipient of a token of esteem present. ed by some of his friends. This token was in the form of cash subscribed by John McGraw, manager of the Giants, Hugh Jennings, Connie Mack, Pat Moran and others, who recall the days when Horning played left field for the Bostons and the Giants. Joe started his baseball career as a bat boy in 1868. He first became famous as member of the Tecumsehs. After winding up his major league career he was a National League umpire for several years, and later became a scout. Horning . a great favorite with the fans wlto visit the Polo Grounds, where he has been employed as a special officer since 1910. He is over 60 years old, but still enjoys good health, and holds a record for long service in connection with the great American pastime.
