CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET. Open. Mizh jten day : |among tance, runners are vitally important to America’s winning. Hence -we must develop runners and athletes of all kinds to insure beating the Boche. The best known hero in the ranks, Private Peptow, whose “Creed” has been published widely, was & runner. Speed in running, ability to hurdle barbed twire entanglements, strength to throw hand grenades, boxing skill to back up. bayonet thrusts, all must be developed among our fighters. In the athletic work among soldiers in training, the army athletic directors have received the greptest assistance from the athletic directors of the ¥, M. C. A, the K. of C.. the Jewish welfare board and the way camp community service. Without the aid of these agencies the physical education would never have progressed ,so efficiently, | and I urge every athlete to aid the| united war work campaign in its drive for §170,500,000 so_that these organiza- tions and the Y. W. C. A., .the Ameri- can Library association and the Salva- tion Army, which are gssociated with them, may* be able to continue and extend their valuable work with our boys. ¥ The United States army needs plen- ty of zood runners—one is tempted to add “to catch up to the Germans. What I mean is runners to carry or- Gers, despatches and messages. It takes good legs to run at top speed amid dropping shells day and night, carrying despatches or other messages. We are training men. Mass jump- ing will_prove ifs value when these camp athletes show how they can go over the.top and can hurdle barbed wire entanglements, leap ditches and pursue the ememy. And give a good walker. He can hike miles on any | kind of road and arrive in good con- dition to relieve his comrades. Weight throwers and baseball players are the best grenade {hrowers, and wall scal- ing experts will be invaluable at fight- ing in towns or citi Boxing undoubtedly is the most use- ful sport taught, for it makes a good bayonet fighter of a man, skilful with self reliant, aggressive—a com- bination which teaches fast thinking | and brings out ve of the boxes is that of the bafonet fighter. Tug of war in sport develops muscles fit for pulling artil- | lery into position when horses or motor tractors fail in the war ozne mud. We are not trying to develop a few champion athletes, but an army of good athletes. The Y. M. C. A. K. of C. and_Jewish physical directors have been of great assistance in popuiar ing and extendinz our athletic work in camp, while the war camp commun service has provided afhletics in com munities adjoining camps. Al of this| effort its value in} Franc ill continue to do o y is won.
