MARINES SHOW Up
ENGINEER PLAYERS
Quantico Men Are Stronger in
Stiff Engagement at
A. L. Park.

The Qusntieo Marines. depending
upon their formidable set OF for
wards. employed a sustained attack
throughout the service eleven battle
with the Camp Humphreys eleven at
American League Park yesterday and
by their consistent work were re-
warded with a ~ 20 7 victory.
The work OF the Marines was bril-
liant at all times. Three occasions
found them up against possible
score of Humphreys players who
were forced TO forward pass over the
goal line for touchbacks.
The. Accotink players were greatly
outweighed. They employed an army
attack CLEANED from West Point
tactics which. had Il not been for the
brilliancy OF Vidal and Gehansk y
would have been consistently smoth-
cred.
Twice on long forward passes which
completely baffled the Engineers
secondary defense the Quantico men
scored The Engineers secondary
allowed the Marine forwards to out
run them on forward passes and
thereby handed the Quantico lads
their opportunity.
Eugene Vidal, OF West Point fame.
was the brilliant performer for the
Engineers. His siXty-yard dash was
THE feature of the contest. On the
KICKOFF he got away in the opening
period for spectacular dash. Twice
he saved touchdowns by spilling the
runner.
The Marines showed a lack OF con-
dition but their superior weight and
teamwork stood them in good stead.
Palmer. Hamill, Paine and Brown
performed in fine shape for the Ma
rines behind a stonewall line.
Palmer's forty-yard dash on an in
tercepted forward pass was a clever
piece of work. Morelands work at
guard for the Engineers stood out
prominently in the defense play of
the Accotink men.

green for the big leagues, but I'm
going to keep him. He's beauti-
full fielder right now and can run as
fast as Sam Rice, which is saying
something. But he must learn TO
hit. He'll get all the instruction

: o'clock Saturday morning. Satur-
day night his wife became uneasy

Teaching Preachers to Play.

Union Theological Seminary an
nounces the establishment Of new
department to teach prospective clar-
gymen to play.
It is safe to assume that "Hoyle'
will not be adopted as a textbook.
Nor will the students of play be ini-
tiated into the finer points of african
golf" Examination questions will not
require definition of the points which
differentiate straight" poker from
"jackpots".
Nevertheless, such a course prom
ises we'll, particularly at Union, where
it has long been recognized that re-
ligion may have breadth as well as
depth.
In another theological school an
nouncement of such venture might
provoke mirth. At Union, in the s.b
sence of full particulars, it is safe to
assume that "drop-the-handkerchief"
and "ring-around-a-rosie" vii rot
monopolize the course.
Man games such as baseball, foot
ball, golf and tennis may be assumed,
together with instruction in the pro-
motion of good, clean, interesting
sport as prime opponent of the evil
tendencies of idle hands.
If these conjectures are correct, the
innovation will serve both God and
man. 1t will benefit not only the con-
gregations but the preachers.
No man was ever poorer preacher
for the ability to be man among
men in no-secular affairs.
Most of the great preachers have
been great largely because of the ablli-
ty to command respect and aomlra-
ton outside as well as inside the
chancel.-New York World

August rains may not be right for
some crops, the outlook for bumper
crops in Greenville county has seldom

County Agent A. H. Chapman says
that this years crops are better fer

any previous year, and that his view
of the situation is very optimistic.
Harder work has been done on the
crops this season by the farmers, he
said, and this probably accounts in a
large measure for today's good pros
poets.
