AID Of GIRLS IS.
SOUGHTFOR
ARMY
Demand Military Training OF
Sweethearts, Is Plea by
General Pershing.

Castigating Americas lack Of
readiness for war in 1917 in more
severe terms than he has ever be-
fore publicly employed, Gen. John
]. Pershing, addressing men in
training at Camp Meade yesterday,
suggested a novel plan to make
military instruction well-nigh uni
versal.
To Seek Aid of Girls.
His scheme contemplates nothing
less than insistence on the part of
every woman of the United States
that the man she is to marry shall
have undergone a course of military
training.
IT propose to go to the girls Of
America" General Pershing told men
and boys of the citizens military
training camp and officers of the
reserve corps, whom he reviewed
with a plea that they demand of
the boys they marry a certificate Of
citizenship showing they have been
trained to serve their country.
think the women of this country
will back me up in such a plan"
The proposal was cheered.
Pleads for Preparedness.
General Pershing expressed the
fervent hope that America would
never again be in the deplorable,
hopeless, lamentable, shameful state
OF unpreparedness such as existed in
1917"
I'VE can never tell when there
will be another war" he warned.
ut is my earnest wish that we shall
be ready to meet the next one when
it comes. Our military conditions
In 1917 were disgraceful, and had
1t not been for our allies I do not
know what would have happened"
The Camp Meade visit opened a
two-months' trip of inspection which
will carry General Pershing to the
Pacific coast and back.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-While
politicians are appraising the posi-
bilities of national political parti-
cipation by the Ku KluX Klan as
the result of its victories in last
week s elections, members of con
gress can find no way to avoid con-
tact with the khan issue which
many of them fear will be the year S

ably will get before congress in two
ways.

be chairman of the senate privileges
and elections committee, which will
handle the Mayfield contest if the
ease is pressed.
The activities of the newly form
ed National Vigilance committee are
exciting some comment in Washing
ton. The organization, which has
headquarters here, sets forth that
it is composed Of men prominent in
educational, business and profession
al life. 1t urges nationwide support
for laws to prevent masking; to re-
quire all organization to make pub
lie names of all their members and
for drastic federal laws to punish
persons taking part in mob violence.
Thus the Klan question is to be
agitated before congress from both
sides. In view of Khan successes
in the recent election, congressman
are disturbed at the prospect of
having to face this issue, which in
wolves so much of racial and relig-
ious prejudice along with purely po-
litical issues.

APATHY MARKS
ATTENDAN CE AT
BASEBALL ME EFT
Local Players Decide Or
Aggressive Drive for
Support

Only the usual number of players,
and two fans attended the baseball
meeting held at the Chamber of
Commerce last evening, but despite
this apathetic attitude on the part
of the public, it was decided to 90
ahead and take the action necessary
to keep team in the winter league
to represent Ell Centre.
Manager Jack Tackett and com
mittee of players, will request the
Chamber of Commerce directors at
tonight s meeting to endorse the
players proposition to solicit funds
from the business men and fans of
the city, and in this way it is hoped
to get sufficient money to fix up
the local grounds and provide the
equipment necessary to start the
season.
Following discussion of the arti-
Gle in last Saturdays Press, by
fans of the city, several prominent
business men pledged support to the
tCdHl, anu IL 10 btllcNCu tudU Will
the endorsement of the Chamber of
Commerce, the players will have lit
tie or no difficulty in raising the
funds which are necessary to get
started.
Manager Tackett stated at last
nights meeting that he has lines
out ON several top-notch ball play
ers who wish to come to the valley
for the winter, and there are several
good men already here who are
available for duty, in addition to
the, old standbys who have played
the game here fer several seasons.
In fact, according to Tackett, get
ting players is the easiest part of
the present difficulty. Getting the
interest of the fans is much harder,
and getting them to give financial
support to the team-that remains
to be seen.

BALL WORLD IS
MUCH INTERESTED
in NEWEST SWAPS
BY HENRY L. FARRELL,
Omitted Press Staff Correspondent

New York, Nov. eeding
new players as well as several bet
ter players with which to meet
competition next year, the New
York Giants, despite denials, are
expected to do some more swapping,
trading or buying before the win
ter season is over.
AS far as the reported transfer
of Rogers Honrsby to the New
York Club from the Cards is con
cerned, there seems nothing to it.
Owners of botn clubs insist that
negotiations have ended but some
smart baseball men maintain that
thev have ended only for the time
being.
The Giants didn't do well last
season and the Yanks with the
ever popular Babe Ruth and a
world s champion team will be a
bigger card than ever next season.
Rogers Hornsby is the only play
cr in the National League that
could be built up as a counter at
traction to Ruth and for this reas-
Oh many baseball men here feel
sure that the Giants will give most
anything for Hornsby after they
lave allowed the feeling to cir,
culate that they have cooled on
the deal.
Even with the announcement
from Boston that some cash was
thrown in with Southworth and
Oeschger for Bancroft, Cunningham
and Stengcl, New York fans can t
imagine what McGraw had in mind
in taking on Il lame outfielder and
worn out pitcher for three such
good players.

GEORGIA PEACH CROP IS NOT ENTIRELY LOST
While Damage Is Serious, There
 Will Be Fair Yield

MACON, Ga. March 20.-Peach growers in Georgia suffered heavy losses by the freeze of Monday night but that there will be a good sized crop of fruit in the belt federal and state crop officials stated here late today.
 According to estimates of these ex- perts the losses raHge from 10 to % per cent in the orchards south of Ma con. mostly on the Hiley Belle Va riety, to a total loss at Summerville, Hampton and other points near the Tennessee border, 6nd 40 to 90 per cent on the Athens division of the Central of Georgia railway.
 Oliver l. Sapp. government entomol- ogist at the peach laboratory at Fort Valley, said the Hiley Bellies had been damaged about b per cent. He also found an orchard of Georgia Bellies. he said, in which the blooms appeared abnormal.
 MT. Sapp said, Ut will be a day or two before can determine whether this abnormal condition means the loss of fruit, and it is im- possible to make any definite esti- mate of the damage that has been done. There will be fair crop of all varieties. I believe, in the main peach belt" he said.
