effort to capture Juarez today
recalled the story Of how Fran

revolutionary leader and bandit
chieftain, postponed an advance
upon the border town because of
the 1918 base ball world series.
Villa was encamped south of
Juarez and desired possession of
the border town because of its
wealth. producing sources.
An American newspaper man,
Norman Walker, knew Villa in
timately. Villa told him he ex-
pected to attack JuareZ on day
that conceded with the opening
of the series.
"Pancho." said Walker. you
are foolish to do that. Don't you
know that the American news
papers will be filled with base
ball and nobody will pay any
attention to your battle?"
Villa agreed to wait and 10
days or so later advanced upon
Juarez and captured it.
