playing a great game at end will not be started by Coach Daniel Even in the face of these adversities however the Christians are not discouraged and will offer no alibis in case the verdict goes to the South Texans The game should develop into a real struggle with an absolutely gree team has made a wonderful record under Coach Daniel and Southwestern tutored by Lionel Moise has been developed into one of the best teams that ever represented the Georgetown institution Pirates In Fair Shape The Pirates left Georgetown Thursday morning for Fort Worth Several of the men are suffering from

not when it is taken into consideration how strenuously the boys are trying to work their way Into Berlin All of the seven boxers who could du so much good under the management of Uncle Sam have reputations of the first water each is a boxer who would jam any club to the turnstiles And there would be many a fan who would rather fork over a dollar or two to see a star boxer than to drop a nickel Into a Red Cross box Willard alone could draw $100000 house In a bout in which he de-' fended the heavyweight title and why 1 shouldn't the big American do that so that i every copper of that sum would be turned over for the use of his and our country? Fred Fulton stands out as Jess' most worthy contender and there Is little doubt that Fulton would be more than pleased to box for nothing so that the Red Cross would benefit by the entire gate just to get a chance to annex the championship will be back at his old post at right guard I Harris the giant of the team who tips the beam at more than 200 pounds will play the other guard position He proved a terror I against the Christians in last year's game at Georgetown The Southwestern ends are Foster Caw-j thon and Young Foster is from Meridian College and Is said to be a wonderful de-j fensive player Young Is from Georgetown By the use of nature's weapons seven of the leading boxers In the United States could go a long way In assisting Uncle Sam to slip over the well known kockout wallop on the smooth shaven chin of Bill the Tyrant In the allies campaign to exterminate Kuitur for once and all Approximately a half million dollars a year could be added to the Red Cross fund and there is no reason why these flingers of fists cannot go right ahead like regular fellows and help obliterate autocracy All that Uncle Sam'l has to do Is to draft the recognized best boxers of the various classes in pugilism in the service under Old Glory as workers of the Red Cross Then nothing will be left but to count the filthy lucre that will make America's real fighting men enjoy their duties By commissioning Pete Herman bantam: Johnnie Kilbane featherweight Benny Leonard lightweight: Ted Lewis welterweight Mike Gibbons middleweight Bat Levins ky light heavyweight and Jess Wil-lard heavyweight into service under our flag $500000 slightly more or less could be derived by the government annually so that it would make fighting worth while for the Yankee boys "over there" All of the leading boxers of the country with the possible exception of "Willard are within the draft age but how much better they could serve our country than by each representing only one man in the trenches Through their ability In the ring the champions and very near champions could be of better use and that would be to continually bring In money the stuff that really wins battles as Is now raging over in the old country High He has proven adept In handling forward passes In the early games on the Pirates schedule Cawthon Is from Houston High and has been playing end three years Holt and Egger the Methodists big tackles broke into the sport columns in the A game Both are 200 pounders They did wonderful work In checking Can the One Hundred and Eleventh Engineers repeat the dose administered the One Hundred and Thirty-second Field Artillery team two weeks ago when they meet the fast One Hundred and Forty-fourth Infantry team at Panther Parx Sunday afternoon?
