Cs Christmas Cheer Forces Enjoy Sight of Happy Youngsters
SOLDIERS AT fort
GIVEN CHRISTMAS
BAGS BY RED CROSS
North Dakota Organization Ap-
plies National Idea; Post
Has Tree In Gym

The soldiers OF the Fourth Infau
try held their Christmas celebration.
on the eve OF the merry day.
Gathered about 2 tree In the post
gymnasium. they joined with the
children of the post n receiving gifts.
Some Of these were sent from kin to
individual enlisted men, about half OF
them being remembered by mother.
sister or the girl left behind me-"
The bulk Of the gifts, however,
came from the thoughtful North Da-
kota Red Cross. Miss Mary Cashel,
recalled from her experience in Red
Cross work on the Atlantic coast,
some years ago. that the Red Cross
always sees to 1t that the men on
foreign stations receive bags contain
ing presents at Christmas. She
thought 1t might be pat idea to in
troduce ut Fort Lincoln. Especially
as she learned that sometimes the en-
listed men get hardly any Christmas
membranes.
The nations, Red Cross organiza-
ton was consulted and sanction was
given the North Dakota organization
to 60 ahead with such a plan. Word
was sent over the state and the Red
Cross leaders had pretty bags Of Gre
tonne made and filled with such
things as q soldier would appreciate
at Christmas. The inevitable pack
age Of cigarettes was there. Also
some sweets, handkerchiefs and other
kit articles.
The Red Cross sent 800 OF these
bags to the post. Monday evening,
and the officers passed them out 1T
the Christmas tree celebration in the
evening. Some of the men were not
there to receive theirs, as those who
have homes not 50 far from Bismarck
were given furloughs to make
Christmas visit to their folks. The
bags were a surprise to the men and
they gave q very happy touch to the
celebration of the holiday.
The tree celebration was enlivened
by violin music, but otherwise it was
made as informal as possible.
Christmas day each company mess
had special dinner at which turkey
was the chief feature. The men made
merry in soldier way and will con-
tinue their holiday for the remainder
Of the week. with freedom from all
duties except guard mount and some
minor necessary tasks.

 The Reds raised their stock some- what by taking two decisions from the Robins, II to 10 and to 1. while other first division teams re- mained idle. It was reported, how ever, that the Cardinals had any fewer than their customary eight hours of sleep.
 A fine pitching point was raised in the second clash. with the defeat going eventually to Rube Ehrhardt as Ray Kolp won. The veteran Bill Doak held the Reds scoreless until the seventh when he fell victim tc the heat. Rube rushed 10 the rescue and finished the round without a run only to be removed when he permitted Kelly to single as the eighth began.
 Dazzy Vance next was called upon. He caused Dresser to force Ztzman who ran for Kelly. but the Reds went on to score two runs which en- abled them to live through a one- run Brooklyn rally in the ninth. The defeat was charged to Ehrhardt on the grounds that he was respon slble for one runner, regardless of that runners identity, and that single man scored. giving the Reds a lead which the Robins never tied.

ToV Morgan Stops Assault on Throne of Eddie Martin

New York, July 19 P}-Cannon- ball Eddie Martin, one-time king of the bantamweights, today had noth- ing but deep and lasting scars, along with the knowledge that Tod Nor gan also was covered with Jumps. to show for his second assault on the junior welterweight title.
 The slim. frail-appearing kid from Seattle. who looked as though he might break in half under Martins s vicious body humping, came through a storm of terrific punish ment last night to save the crown in a fifteen round engagement that drew 20,000 spectators to Ebbets field in Brooklyn.
 Although Morgan. according to the Associated Press score sheet, won eight of the fifteen rounds while Martin gained but four, with three even, the battle was close all the way with shades alone deciding many of the rounds. Only in the thirteenth round was there danger of a knockout, and then it was Nor gan, the champion. who reeled around the ring, battered from pill far to post by the challenger's lung ing, driving attack.
 The battle was gory enough to ri- val Gene Tunney's famous bleeding session with Harry Greb several! years ago. In the very first round, butt opened gash over Morgan's right cheek open in the third. Nor gan added dripping nose to the spectacle in the sixth and in the tenth the challenger's right eye brow was cut to the bone. Blood poured from the multitude Of wounds and both fighters were stained crimson to the waist.
 To add 10 the carnage, Martin smashed left hook to the cham pion's right eye in the fifth round and before the battle was over the optic was closed and puffed out inches from the rest of his face.
 Morgan's cleaner punching. better boxing ability, ana ring gtneralShlp gave him an edge in the first three rounds.
