 NOTES
 In the hurry and hustle incidental to the first ball game of the season we neglected to learn the name Of the vicksburg "gob' who umpired. He is there with the voice that could be heard against gale of wind. His work was very good.
 Martini made the only home run when he slammed the pill to the bay in the fifth, bringing shuman in with him.
 Dug Oliver sprained' his ankle while running to second. He caught his foot on the base and had 10 be assisted from the field.
 Both Coughlin and Raincs cut 'em or at second in fine style. Not sailor stole base although several of them tried it. In the other hand five Douglas men stole second on the sailor catcher who did not have the requisite amount of speed in get ting the ball away.
 The team work of the sub chasers was rather weak. but they have had only one or two practices together. They have a good team when it is considered that there are only IS
 Perhaps the most sensational play of the day was when Higgins reach men on the boat 10 choose from. ed out his hand and speared a dif- ficult one in the field while run ming full speed.
 The team work of the Douglas boys is fairly good. but some of them will have to get their eye on the ball little better if they expect to get fin on money in any of the games around here. They, with one or two except tions. were hitless wonders. Only five men on the team got hits.

WASHINGTON, January 1a.-On!y
one more big war loan drive is planned
by the Treasury Department. Secrc-
tary Glass said to-day. This will be
the Victory loan. to be lloated prob
ably the last three weeks in April
The amount will no. be more than

Mr.. Glass. Reports that there would

Der OF campaigns"
More bonds probably Will be issued

these quietly through banks and other
financial institutions. without the usual
campaign OF advertising and soliciting.

in this manner will not be determine d

from continuing the policy OF making

One result OF Secretary Glasss an
nouncemcnt that the next intensiv

that Liberty loan organizations
throughout the country will make this
a big selling point In the campaign
Citizens will be urged 30 do their ul-
most on the plea that 1t probably will
be the last opportunity 10 make loans
10 the government for war purposes.
This misapprehension regarding the
number and amount of remaining loans
may arise. Treasury officials explained
to-day. over the fact that the Treas
ury had planned to float two loan is-

Of nearly s7.000.0o0 900 already has
