There is not like anything SO many

Chamberlain's Collie and Diarrhcea
Remedy came into such general use.
When this remedy is given with castor
oil as directed and proper care is taken
as to diet, it is safe to say that fully
ninety-nine out of every hundred cases
recover. Mr.. w. G. Campbell of But

TURK OFFICERS NOW BRIeANDs

Gregory Mason in the Outlook)
 Signs of general Reorganization are seen on every hand in Turkey today. Recently bandits captured a British of ficer and five Indian soldiers guard ing a caravan between Marsovan, which has an American Protestant col lege, and Samsoon, on the Black Sea coast. It is decidedly risky for a for eigner to travel in cost parts of the in- terior.
 Government officials are reported to be operating with agents of the com mittee of union and progress in organ izing bands of brigands for political purposes and supplying them with arms and ammunition. Perhaps the largest and worst of these bands .s that headed by Mustapha Kennel Pasha who is said to have a staff of 42 Turk ish officers.
 Reports of new atrocities against Greeks and Armenians are coming in. The occupation of Smyrna by the Greeks has aroused the temper of the Turks to fighting pitch, and there have been mary clashes between the two nationalities.

COYOTE REDSK|N
 CAME FEATURES l 'CR|D' SCHEDULE
Three Games Already As sured for Coach Geary's Men-Plan Full Schedule Team Develops Rapid ly Under Careful Training Quarter Back Needed

Three games already have been scheduled by Athletic Director Ogg for the 1919 Coyote football team, includ- ing the annual Indian Coyote scrap. No dates have yet been agreed upon for these games although it is probable that the Indian-H High School scuffle will be played on Thanksgiving day, as has been customary in years gone by.
 Other games arranged for at this date are with Tempe Normal and Tempe High. Negotiations are also pending at this time with Flagstaff high schools, and the Long Beach championship squad for home and home games.
 A full schedule will be played, ac- cording to present arrangements, with a possibility of home and home games with Tempe and Flagstaff normal school teams. A team with the U. of A second scuad is also under consid- eration, it is understood.
 Football practice is progressing rap- idly under the direction of Coach Francis Geary. With the start of the second week of training, harder work was prescribed by the coach.
 Efforts are now being made to un- cover a quarterback. Brawner is, at present, the only likely candidate for the vacancy. but Geary has his eyes on couple of youngsters who may de- velop as the season progresses, he states.
 As to backfield material, he has a number of candidates, all of whom are showing up well in the preliminary practice work. He is spending much time in endeavoring to develop a first class kicker, one who can punt as vel as place and drop kick.
 Tackling practice was started fol the first time this week and in this many of the new players are showing up exceptionally well, especially in view of their inexperience.
 The 1919 Coyote team will be lighter than teams of past seasons, but Geary expects to make up in speed what he has lost in poundage.

Having considered the infields and outfields of the two pennant winners, we now arrive at the pitching staffs where, it must be admitted, the Reds have a good margin, especially In view of a nine game series.
 With a quartet of hurlers of the first type, Manager Pat Moran has all the edge when it comes to the firing line. He has an abundance of material in this department whereas the Sox are anything but well fortified.
 Eddie Cicotte and Lefty Williams are practically the only dependable moundsmen in Gleason's entire retinue. James has shown good form in his last few starts but the big boy is un- steady-always has been-and a worlds series game would probably frighten him into defeat before he ever walked into the center of the playing field.
 However, Gleason must nurse his staff carefully and it would not be surprising to see him start either | James or Faber in the second engage ment should the Sox take the opening struggle at Cincinnati next Wednes- day. Then Kerr is also possibility for the second or third games should the Sox win either the first or second
 Of course, all dope has it that Glea- son will open the series with Cicotte | flinging but it would not be the least surprising to see him send Williams against the National league champions | in the opening engagement. In the | first place, Williams needs more rest than does Cicotte, notwithstanding his many starts this season. Invariably | Canf haCk with only a couple of days of rest, he has not shown nearly as strong as on his previous appearance.
 Then, too, he is port slider and majority of the heavy artillerymer | from Cincinnati swing from the of | side of the plate. Of course, south paws do not hold the terror for Jeff | handed batters that was once the talk | of the big leagues but they are probab- ly more effective than are right handed boxmen.
 And should Williams go well against the Reds, Gleason will be sure to use | his other southpaw star, Kerr. Il Williams hurls the opening battle there is no chance for Kerr to start the secondhand is beyond reason | Gleason watched McGraw make thai same mistake two years ago and he's not going to do the same thing, that's certain.
 | Faber, who done such good boa work for the Sox two years ago, prob. ably will be saved for relief work 1T the series, along with Lowdermilk. But with Moran, it's different. Ht has such a wealth of mound materia that h.s trouble is going to be, mol finding enough men, but finding tht right" man.

crazed Red rooters behind them. But they are going against one of the best scoring, hardest hitting clubs-but that's another story.
 Should Reuther start and get away with flying rush, Ring or Fisher will undoubtedly draw the second assign ment.
 But that is going into details that will best be worked out by the man. agers themselves. They probably do not know themselves who they wifi start in the opening engagement, es- pecially at this time.
 Anyway you figure 1t, the Sox are at a disadvantage in the box. They have only two boxmen really of suf- ficient calibre for the big tilt while the Reds have four and possibly five, counting Sallee.
