AIDED an ''Imperishable
Chapter" to War History

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-Tribute to
the performance of the marines in
France as rev and heroic demonstra
tion Of she unconquerable tenacity and
dauntlcss courage of the American
soldier" was paid by Secretary Baker
to-da, in letter to acting Secretary
Roo"erelt Of the Navy Department
The letter was occasioncd by the
restoration of the marine brigade to
the Navy Department after its service
overseas under General Pershing.
The brigade, composed of the 5th and
9th regiments, which played a large
part in turning back the German
forces at Chateau Thierry and Bclleau
Wood, was demoblizcd day at the
Marine Corps camp at Quantico, Va.
Many Of the members of the brigade,
which was made up of men from every
state, left for their homes to-day, and
others will leave within the next few
days.
81 cannot permit this heroic force"
wrote Secretary Baker, "to terminate
its association with the army without
expressing to you, and through you to
the officers and men of the Marine
Corps, the deep sentiment of the War
Department and of the army toward it..
"The whole history of the brigade in
France is one of conspicuous service.
When it was finally incorporated into
the I'd Division of the American army
it had early an opportunity to give an
heroic demonstration of the uncOn-
querable tenacity and dauntless cour-
age of American soldiers. From then
on in successive, almost continuous,
battles, the marine brigade and the
division of which it was a part fought
sternly and successfully until victory
was obtained for the Allied armies.

With a second string man almost

Sundays game at top speed the
entire time. II one should show
signs of fatigue from the hard

either. The workouts last about

Falcon Sub.
Those fans who have followed
the Independents closely in past
years will remember a few years
back when the Evanston North
Ends beat the locals by a score Of
6 10 0. Everyone who saw that
contest remembers the brilliant
work Of Falcon at fullback for
the visitors. He was able to pierce
the forward wall Of the Independ-
ents at will. A plunger much -
the type of Fred Chicken, he gained
an enviable reputation with the
local bugs.
Well, now, isn't It a hard thing
to imagine a star of the first order
like Falcon being carried by the
Hammonds as a second string play

Chicago, Oct. 10.-"The Reds beat
the greatest ball team that ever
went into a worlds series"
That was the first statement made
by Boss Gleason OF the White Sox
when the show was over at COmis-
key park yesterday. His next state
ment was about like this:
But IL wasn't the real White SoX
They played baseball for me only a
couple or three of the eight days"
There was logic in the statement
Of Gleason to one who had follow
ed the White Sox throughout the
season. The White Sox OF the
worlds series was not the same
team that won the American league
pennant The Reds of the worlds
series was the best Red team Of
the whole summer Pat Moran had
his players up on their toes. The
White Sox slumped and couldn't
get into their regular stride.
Williams Not Right.
"I thought the championship was
as good as in after we won that
third victory down in Cincinnati"
continued Gleason. 81 thought
Lefty Williams was a cinch. But he
didn't have his stuff. Anyway they
started hitting him in the first in
ming and 1 yanked him in a hurry.
He wasn't right 1 had to do some
thing, so / got him out OF there and
sent in James. James was too wild,
but anyway they had commanding
lead because of what happened
while Williams was in there.
Later on I got Wilkinson on the
Job and he was good. Wilkinson
would have won that game for me
yesterday II l had started him. l
wish now l had, but couldn't start
him at the beginning. 1t looked like
our chance to win in the end was
to have Williams go through. Had
he gone through, we would have
won sure. 1 would have had Kerr
for the final game and it would
have been soft. 1 congratulate Pat
Moran. His team gave him every
thing It had. He deserved to win"
Moran Surely Happy.
Pat Moran, leader of the new
worlds champions, was the hap
piest man in America when the
thing was over. Not many of the
hundreds of experts gave him a
chance ten days ago. But he put
his team through.
"All the credit belongs to my
boys" was what Pat had to say
last night. They played great base
ball for me all summer, and they
played the greatest baseball Of all
in this worlds series. Before the
game yesterday a lot of people
thought my bunch had quit. They
thought the two defeats down in
Cincinnati had taken all the spirit
out of US. Well, the Reds went out
and showed plenty OF spirit in that
final game.
They got four runs in the first
inning and that would have been
plenty to win the ball game. But
they didn't let up. They hustled
clear through TO the end and they

FORWARD PASS
WILL BE USED
TO ADVANTAGE
With Wealth of Veteran Material,
Coaches Plan Strong Attack
With This Method.

Chicago, Oct. 10.-With practic-
ally every football team in the
country fortified with veteran play
ers who are equally efficient in old
and new style tactics, coaches of
the leading elevens are planning
the most versatile attacks since the
forward pass was adopted Is years
ago.
The coaches have been of expert
ence who know when to throw the
ball on forward passes and when
to run with 1t in the event the re-
ceiver is covered. The players also
know enough football to mix up
the plays in such a manner as to
keep the secondary defense at a
loss whether to play up close to
the forward line to help stop
straight PLAYS or lay back to inter
cept forward passes.
Use Running Attack.
The hard, running attack will be
in evidence more than usual be-
cause of the known ability of the
driving backs. Most Of the
coaches already have shown their
basic plans of attacks which in
clude a shifted interference with
the play generally being sent on
the strong side.
While the offense is being per
fected the coaches are planning a
defense which they hope will be
Just as successful as the attacks.
It is one thing to gain ground in
football and an entirely different
one to stop the other team from
making ground. The main idea Of
every coach is to secure an ad-
vantage and then hold it.
Pitts Attack Powerful.
Probably one of the best exam
pies of the hard running attack
combined With stubborn defensive
play viii be seen tomorrow with
the playing of the game between
Pittsburgh and West Virginia in
the Smoky city. Coach Warner is
noted in football for an attack
which center5 around the tackles.
His plays are either sent inside or
outside the tackle and the backs
have so much power to their drives
they make ground even when OPP
position is met.
Not alone does Warner employ
the hard. driving attack, but he
mixes the straight plays with we'll
devised forward passes, which gen.
orally keeps the secondary defense
at a safe distance from the line.
This was the main reason for Pitts
victory over Georgia Tech last year
and about the same kind of tactics
will be used against West Virginia
