REDSKINS may
TRAIN At VA.
CAMP IN FALL
BY CHICK KENNY

First duties of George Marshall
owner of the Washington Red
skins of the National Professional
Football League, upon his return
from the Pacific Coast the last
Of the month, will be the selec.
ton of a training site for tn e
team.
Although it is rumored tn a
Duluth, Mimi, would eventually
be the training spot for the Red
skins next fall, it is doubtful if
arrangements will be made for
such site so far distant from
Washington.
The Redskin boss fully realizes
that the team is a part Of Wash
ington, and to remove it so far
from its base of operations dur
ing the training season is not fair
to followers of the team.
When Marshall returns to
Washington, he will accompany
Gus WEIGH, recently resigned
American University football
coach and athletic director, to
a place along the famed Sky Line
Drive in Virginia. This is where
Camp Kewanzee Is located, 212
miles from Washington and about
II miles from Natural Bridge,
one of the scenic wonders of the
Old Dominion State.
OWNED BY WEIGH
Camp Kewanzee is owned and
operated by Welch during h e
summer as a vacation retreat for
young boys. The camp is named
after Gus father, Chief Kewan-
zee, of the Chippewa Tribe in
Wisconsin.
The camp site is $40 acres and
surrounded by the Thomas Jeffer
son National Park. There is an
excellent practice field, along with
so cabins equipped with running
water and showers. WEIGH pur-
chased the camp site 10 years ago
and believes it to be an excellent
place for conditioning a football
team. It has a 4,O00 foot elevation.
Anyway, Marshall is interested.
Last year the Redskins received
offers to train at Duluth, Old Point
Comfort, Va, and Escanaba, Mich.
At the conclusion of the football
season, Coach Ray Flaherty Wis
tied Duluth and, although, he was
pleased with the condition Of the
playing field and equipment ad-
jacent to it, there are no facilities
near the field to quarter a football
team other than a hotel. Flaherty
is not satisfied with having his
clube live in hotel.
IDEAL FOR REDSKINS
The fact that there are cabins
at Camp Kewanzee, makes it more
or less ideal for the Redskins
wants.
The Redskins were far from
satisfied with their practice head
quarters at Ballston, Va. The
facilities proved adequate but the
heat of the day was unbearable
for hard work.
A mountain resort would be
ideal for a conditioning site.
Among the college teams that have
established football training camps
in the mountains are the Univer-
sity Of Pittsburgh, near Windber,
Pa, in the heart of the Allegheny
Mountains; the University of
Pennsylvania in the Poconos, and
Washington and Lee at Jackson
Mills in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Baseball Picture to Be Shown at Central Y
 This Evening

The newest motion picture in the American Baseball league series en- titled, First Century of Baseball,r will be offered free of charge by the Kenosha club at 8:30 o'clock i1 the Central Y this evening, it was announced this morning by Chair man Francis Levesque.
 This new 1899 film authoritatively traces the course of the game of baseball from its rudimentary forms to its present-day development. Highlights depict the establishment of the fundamental rules by Abner Doubleday in 1889; how the game came came to have nine innings, originally eleven players on a side, and bases set ill the shape of a dia- mond. Portrayed also are forms of amateur baseball through which an aspiring youngster with big league ambitions may rise; the Old Timers and All Star games, the 1888 world series; life in the major league training camp; and several prob- lem plays to sharpen the eye of the spectator.

of possible incidents, forbade their
shipment in American vessels. The
Bloom bill was changed in this re-
spect so as to permit the use OF
American bottoms in shipping war
supplies abroad. The prevailing ar
gument in the house committee was
that if ships flying the United States
flag were barred from this trade,
this would be another blow TO Amer
lean shipping, and a deterrent TO
building American ships.
Under the Bloom bill ships fly
ing the American flag may trans
port anything they please except
that they may not enter zones
which, after the breaking out of
war, may be declared dangerous
by the President of the United
States.
But on the senate side of the Capt.
tol this idea of permitting ships fly
ing the Emitted States flag to carry
munitions of war 10 the ports of
belligerent country seems a very
dangerous doctrine to the group of
senators anxious to isolate this coun-
try-or insulate to use the latest
word-against every possible danger
of war.

insurance Case Is
Dismissed On Plea
Cost Not Excessive

HELENA.-The suit r. B. Miller
Jr, brought against the state board
OF examiners TO prevent the paw
ment OF a premium on an insurance
policy covering about $l0,000,00C
worth OF state owned property was
dismissed by Judge George w. Pad
bury of the Lewis and Clark
county district court when Miller
admitted that the policy could not
have been purchased for the price
he quoted in his complaint.
Members of the board of exam
liners recently cancelled a policy
with the Pearl Assurance Company.
Ltd. and bought a new one from
the same firm, covering more than
$4,000 900 in state property for a
premium of rs cents for each 500
IN insurance The new policy was
approved by the new state insurance
commission, with State Auditor
John j. Holmes. chairman of the
commission, not attending the
meeting.
Miller brought suit to prevent
payment of the policy's premium,
charging that the policy could have
been purchased for Sd cents per
$500 IN insurance His complaint
alleged, in part, that the state was
paying 1000 more than necessary
for the insurance. Several major
insurance companies announced la
ter that they could not sell such a
policy for 81 gents per $500.
His attorney Harry Bennett of
Helena, read Miller's petition to
have the suit Dismissed. The peti-
ton, in part. follows. Subsequent
to that time (bringing the suit we
have learned . that the rate of 81
cents did not apply to the present
state contract, due to the endorse
ment to form which had not been
considered in the 64-cent rate.
i take this opportunity of cor
recting an erroneous impression that
may have arisen by reason of filing
of the complaint that either Mr..
Miller or myself in any manner in
tended to cause any reflection of
any kind or character on the of
flcials who were made parties de-
fendant."
