FOOTBALL WAS
REAL ARMY SPORT
Boxing Game Next as Shown
by Federal Canvass; Mass
Play Contributed Largely

Paris, June 2.-Sport followers in
the A. E. f. are given slant on
the much-argued question as to what
is 1.-THE most popular sport" in the
army, in the figures on participa-
ton and attendance throughout the
entire A. f.. F. for February, just
made public by Elwood S. Brown
chief physical director of the y. NJ
C. A.
These figures reveal football lead
ing boxing. but only by slight
margin. Counting spectators and
was 1,335,752; and for boxing, 1870
s44. Considering spectators only.
boxing takes a slight lead, with
1.127.2O2 as against 1,O23,0S2 for foot
ball.
However. other questions besides
| that of popularity" are known to
have had something to do with these
results. For example, in army CEN
ters in the devastated parts of france
difficulties of finding suitable helds
| and amphitheaters have contributed
, in some measure to the choice OF
sports.
| According to Mr. Browns report,
the total participation by the \. f..
| f. in all sorts of sports during Feb
ruary was 6,564.747. Taking the esti-
mate of 1.650,O00 as the average num-
ber of American soldiers in France
in February, il is seen that the big
sport program outlined in orders
from G. H. Q. last December, touch
ed every member of the A. h. F.
four times over. If spectators num-
bering 4.S91.3S2 are also included,
the whole A. h. +. has been touched
seven times over by the sports pro-
gram.
Participation in mass games, de-
signed especially for the armies, has
had an enormous lot to do with the
piling up OF these big totals of ath-
letic play and attendance. The total
mass game participation in the First.
Second and Third Armies during Feb
ruary was 3,403,963. This repre-
sents participation in variety of
informal games. such as shuttle re-
lays, circle races and many other
competitions of that sort. The Third
Army led in the total of participants
and spectators in athletics for the
month.
The figures given in Mr.. Browns
report are compiled from reports sent
him by Y. NJ. c. A. physical directors
in the field. Army orders outlining
the general sports program placed a
Y. NJ. c. A. athletic leader with every
military unit in France, Luxembourg
and Germany.
