A, Knights of Colum- bus ‘and other organizations striving to make happy the life of the sol- diers overseas intend to leave noth- ing undone this autumn and winter entertain the men in khaki. Not the least important project on foot is the formation of an all-star base- ball team. embracing a number of players who formerly shone in the major leagues but now are serv- ing in the battle lines in Francs The movement is under the joint auspices of the Y. M .C. A. and the Knights of Columbus, and the team will be in charge of Johnny Evers, formerly .captain and star second baseman of the Chicago Cubs, who is serving for the Knights. Evers hasas- sembled what promises to be one of the strongest teams that ever has per- formed on foreign soil, and a_tour of the divisional camps in Southern France is being arranged. It is likely the games will take place during No- vember and December for the clim- ate in lower Francp is balmy in win- ter, the club will go the rounds of the divisional teams and hospital staff nines and will play a majority of the games for the benefit of the wounded warriors at the large hospitals in Southern France. The official lineup has just been an- nounced and it is likely the tour will begin early next month. The first game will be played in Paris with a team numbering many skillful ball tossers who played in the minor leagues before going abroad to help overthrow the Boche. Lineup Complete. Evers has completdd the lineup of his club. The pitching staff has Grover Cleveland Alexander, formerly crack moundsman of the Cubs; Sherrod Smith, who used to pitch for the Leon Cadore, also of the vho now is a lieutenant in} Otis Lambeth, formerly of the Indians and Charley Noyes, who last season was one of the most prom- |ising -of Connie Mack’s spring crop | of youngsters on the Athletics. Any “fan” will readily appreciate what splendid work the Y. M. C. A. and the Knights of Columbus have ac- complished in assembling such a | pitching staff. It is a staff of major | league calibre fore and aft, and nay {club of soldiers that opposes the all- | star nine is sure to be put to a hard | test. The catchers will be hank Gowdy, formerly star backstop of the Boston | Braves, who won the signal honor of being the first ballplayer to enlist in| he army. Hapk has been in the big affray in France ever since_the United | States leaped into action and has won | the commendation of baseball “fans” | the country over.Regan. who served ! brieflly with Cincinnati, also will Evers has assembled a formidable | infield, too. Dots Miller, veteran of the Cardinals, who has shone for years in the National League will hold down first base. Dots is playing as well as| ever in the games behind the battle | lines in Flanders and should be a tow- | er of strength at first for the stars. Bvers will cover second himself. | catch for the All Stars. i ! | Latest reports from France are to the effect that Evers is as fast as ever. The strain of increasing years has not impaifed his game in the least. He will have full charge of the team on the field. . Cy Bates, who served several months for the Athletics and made an excellent showing, will play third. Bates promised to develop into a real find for.Connie Mack, but when the call to arms sounded he followed Gowdy’s lead and jumped into action. Overseas he has played fine ball whenever -He has had the opportunity and is a splendid addition to the all- sm;: a-gg'!'eF gation that will tour the MILITARY RESTRICTIONS UPSET FOOTBALL Football has entered upon the second week of the autumn cam; 3 confronting an outlook that is decid- edly gloomy. Wholesale cancellations of games the country over as a result of military restrictions imposed upon the sport-have thrown the schedules of all colleges into confusion, ‘out of which it is difficult to bring any sem- blance of order. The edict of the military authorities concerning the graduation of cadets at West Point, ‘which doubtless will be followed by similar ruling at Annapo- Iis, already has killed all hope for the Army-Navy game’ and will mean_the virtual withdrawal of the soldiers from the gridiron this autumn. As the two upper classes which are to grad- uate on November 1 embrace nearly all the members of the army football season, it is readily apparent that it would be folly to continue with the schedule. The game with Boston. Col- lege for Saturday was called off; and it is highly probable that all.~ other contests will be cancelled in a few days. The outlook at Annapolis by the same token, is also decidedly dubious. At the outset things appeared quite promising or the embryo admirals, but recent developments have cast a shadow over football at the.' Naval Academy. The midshipmen ’may withdraw from intercollegiate comye- edtition in the near future. With the.development of formidable service elevens in all sections of the country there is promise, however, of plenty of good football, although the intercollegiate rivalry of other years will be reduced to a minimum. A western football authority has suggested what promises to be the so- lution of the troubles that beset many managers of college football elevensin readjusting their schedules. It is sug- gested to hold games between colleges that otherwise would be cancelled be- cause of too long trips, at intermedi- ate points determined by agreement of authorities in charge of the situ- ation at the universities concerned. It is likely the scheme may be adopt- ed by a number of the western uni- versities. Minnesota already has cancelled its game with Michigan at Ann Arbor on Nov. 23. This contest undoubtedly would be oné of the most interesting of the season, and might be played if the military officials agreed to stage WAR STOCKS REACTED SHARPLY New York, Oct. 7.—War stocks made further unmistakable response today to latest peace overtures of the Teu- tonic powers, again reacting sharply, while other Issues more remotely con- nected with that group also extended recent declines. Gains in the peace division were | sufficiently impressive at times to neu- tralize the wea of industrials and cquipments. Dividend rails scored substantial advances on further ex- tension of federal credits and utilities augmented last week's gains as a re- sult of the <government's equitable agreement with the American Tele- rhone company. ; Home developments bore no direct relation to the course of prices, al- though tonnage reports at important terminals were mixed, while business conditions in western and southern sections suggested by their halting attitude the interesying changes in the foreign situation, U. '3. Steel contributed over 25 per cent. to ihe day’'s diversified dealings, recovering only a emall fraction of its two point reversal. Independent steels made very indifferent rallies from gross recessions of two to five points. Kindred equpments and specialties, including tobaccos, leathers and ‘!hP | distilling division, experienced similar | reversals with numerous secondary or minor issues. Transcontinental rails and grangers retained part of their 1 to 2 1-2 point Zains, but oils, motors and shippings cancelled much of their substantial advantage in the general pressure at the close.

There are numerous other impor- tant contests that could be played if some intermediate place were selected. It is not unlikely that a special com- mittee may for the purpose of arranging games at intermediate towns, so that the neces- sity for the long trips would be elimi- nated. Thus for nothing has been done along this line by any of the eastern colleges, but it is probable that should the western colleges take action the easterners would follow suit. A num- ber of games that otherwise will not be played this autumn could take place if played at midway places. 1t is likely that a number of the most important of the conference games will be played in Chicago. All conference elevens are located within a night's ride o the metropolis on the banks of Lake Michigan, and if per- mission could be obtained from the various commandants for the extra half day leave the contests could be played if the officials of the institu- tions involved would consent to neu- tral or intermediate grounds. FOOTBALL TEAM WiLL FLY TO SPRINGFIELD eola, N. Y., the army aviation football team. accompanied by a squad of sup- porters, will step into some forty air- planes on Oct. 19 and fly to Spring- field. On the gridiron in that city the aviation team will meet an eleven representing Camp Devens. the game were announced here to- night. FLIGHT OF GAME BIRDS. ‘While there is considerable tion in the speed of flight of birds, the table below may be taken as the most accurate approximation of the comparative speed at which the better known wild birds fiy. The crow may be taken as an ex- ample of the slower flying bird, with a rate of 35 to 55 feet a second, and with an average speed of 45 miles an hour, while many species of hawks attain the remarkably fast speed of 200 feet a second. Here is the table showing the aver- age speed in flight: varia- game Feet per Aver- Bird Second Quail 500 il 65t0 85 175 Ruffed Grouse 60to 90 T5 Snipe we BOto 70 65 Mallard 55to 90 75 Wood Duck T0to 90 80 Mealis: e 120to 140 130 Canvasback 180to 160 145 Canada Geese 100to 120 110 Red Head .. 110to 130 120 It may be said that if ducks are scared they can reach maximum speed at will and this sprinting flight is usually what the gunner has to make allowance for. On the other hand. many wildfow!l are jumped and killed while hovering over decoys and moving slowly, and birds like snipe and quail are often killed before they have attained full speed. Upland birds are not often shot shot whiie passing the gun at right angles, but going straight away, quar- tering or twisting. POMFRET’S FOOTBALL DATES Charles E. Brown, faculty director of athletics at Pomfret School, has only two veterans for this year’s foot- ball team, and the schedule is shorter than usual, as mid-week games have been dropped because of military drill. ‘The experienced players are Richard Croft, "19, of.

SPORTING NOTES. No doubt there will be considerable conjecture as to the reason for the transfer of Leonard from Upton, where he was reported to be doing fine work. It may be just the least bit possible that his bout with Ted Lewis, which drew so much adverse criticism, had something to do with it. o William Dietz, “Lopestar,” the Carlisle Indian, who coached Wash- ington State college to a champion- ship last year, is now on the job as coach of the marines. Quite a num- ber of his former pupils are members of the marines’ team. bouts in all cities are hing called off on account of the Spanish George Engel. who was manager of Frank Klaus when the middleweight on the world’'s title, and has been Benny Leonard's chief second, has been appointed matchmaker of the Olympia A of Philadelphia. Twenty-five camp boxing instruct- ors, Benny Leonard among them, are at Camp Gordon getting instruction in bayonet fighting. Capt. Thomas J. Browne of New York is doing the in- structing. It is said that the soldiers in France do not want any professional ball players “over there” unless they have army uniforms on. If any nation has a baseball and wants to challenge the TUnited States we will bet, with “Hank” Gowdy catching and Grover Alexan- der pitching, we could show them few things. Miller Huggins, manager of the Yankees, has been appointed assistant athletic director at Pelham Bay Naval Training Station and has reportel for duty.
