If the Waverly Athletic Clubs

the big laugh viii be on the
Apaches.
That is, il The WaverIy ehieftains
speak the real truth when they say
that the Apaches have avoided the
Waverlys all season.
Patience and determination finally
have denied them. For. from the
opportunity that the Apaches would
have dneied them. For. from the
start Of the championship campaign.
when Waverly scored a S-to-0 VIC
tory over the Mohawks, the North.
east club has figured in the title
struggle. But the steadfast refusal
Of the Apaches to mingie with their
old rivals made II appear that
Waverly never would have a real
crack at the crown. The Apaches
were too prominent to be ignored.
That was before the Apaches
met the MOhaWks, and stumbled
for the first time after having
won seven straight victories.
This single defeat eliminated the
Apaches from championship

to battle with the Apaches. with
the title at stake. in the event that
the Mohawks are scalped next Sun

1t would be like turning the other
cheek. Waverly would have nth.

everything to lose. including the fat

A Joke on George

record for two-baggers, collected
some money and one day ne wa,
called to the plate and presented

After the game, when George
looked around for the car, ne
found it had been taken back 20

It's there yet, so far as George
knows, because his Investigator
showed him that the committee

Looks something like a joke on

Red Cross Heroine of Three

War as Drug.

BW NEA Scrrice
NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-"Once fitted
for war-unfit for peace
Dagmar Ruin, Red Cross heroine
and veteran of three wars, sounds
this warning against war as a drug.

But I can't get along without it

the tragedy war has left behind it.,
because there is nothing else to
Fight
"The shipwrecks Of peace are far
worse than those of combat" Miss
Ruin believes. "A period of war
service unhinges the soldiers mind
and body for peace and leaves him a
derelict while still young. 1t is much
easier to fit into the army than into
civil life
In her own case, the tragedy has
been Just as great. Reared as a
noblewoman at the court of the Car
Of Russia, Miss Ruin plunged into
the vortex Of war as soon as she had
finished her musical course at the
University of st. Petersburg.
Since then, she has known only the
front lines for more than four sue
cessive years of war, taking part in
the Russian German struggle before
the revolution in Russia, in the FIN
nish war of independence against
the Bolsheviks and in the fighting
on the western front.
She has received a dozen medals
from grateful governments, includ-
