SELECTION OF A
CAMP IS TROUBLING
CHARLES COMISKEY
Chicago, Dec. 27.—Selection of a
spring training camp for the 1919 sea
son is one of the problems confront
ing Charles A. Comiskey, owner of
the Chicago club of the American
league.
For several seasons the White Sox
trained at Mineral Wells, Tex. While
this place had been considered satis
factory, indications now are that there
wi'l be a change. President Comis
key feels that it may be impossible to
decide the question until after the
joint meeting of the major leagues in
New York on January 16.
If the majors finally decide to
adopt a 140-game schedule, the
White Sox will not journey a great
distance from Chicago to do their
training. It would not be necessary
for the team to start training before
the first of March and in that event
a point farther north might furnish
acceptable weather. Excelsior
Springs, Mo., a short distance from
Kansas City Little Rock, Ark., .Top
lin, Mo., and Wichita, Kan., have been
considered.
Comiskey, however, is opposed to a
140-game schedule and if the two
leagues decide to play 154 games as
heretofore, the White Sox probably
will again train in Texas.

Miss Muriel Young
Tells How Cuticura
Healed Her Eczema
"I was taken sick, and then broke
out on my face, and afterwards all over
my body. I was treated but it did not
seem to help. The eczema started in
small pimples, afterwards becoming
blisters, and were like a
hard crust, and were very
sore. They itched until I
could not stand to have
any clothes on, and I could
not sleep
at night for about
six months.
"I was told to use Cuti
cura Soap and Ointment so I got them
and after using three cakes of Cuticura
Soap and two boxes of Cuticura Oint
ment I was healed." (Signed) Miss
Muriel Young, Brickton, Minn., Jan.
29, 1918.
You may rely on Cuticura to care
for your skin, scalp, hair and hands.
Nothing better to clear the skin of
pimples and blotches, the scalp of
dandruff and the bands of chapping.
Besides the Soap has no superior.

Bismarck, Dec. 27.—Bismarck bas

SCHOOLS CLOSED.
Redondo Beach-, Cal., Dec. 27.—
Grammar schools have been closed
here during the influenza epidemic,
but the work of education goes on.
Equipped with a small portable
blackboard and necessary text books
and records, each teacher calls upon
each pupil enrolled in her classes and
hears recitations and assigns lessons.
Where pupils are living in houses
quarantined because of influenza, the
teacher sets up her blackboard on the
sidewalk, the pupil remains inside the
property line and the school session
begins notwithstanding the quarantine
regulation.
TO KEEP HOME GUARD.
Cordova, Alaska. Nov. 30.—(By
Mail)—Xow that the war is over,
Alaska's home guard, which came into
being during the European conflict,
is working to make the organization'
permanent. In Cordova the local
company has named a committee to
ward that end, and similar action has
been generally followed where there
are home guard companies.
The general hope prevails among
the guard that territorial or federal
government support will be forthcom
ing to place the .guard on the same
footing as the national guard in the
states. It is proposed to have offi
cers commissioned by the governor
and to have sufficient ammunition to
permit a regular target practice. The
various guard companies have worked
hard since their formation and are
said by their officers to have reached
a high degree of proficiency in mili
tary drllL

A. C. Expected To
Put Good Team In
Field This Winter
Fargo, X. D.. Dec. 27.—With the re
opening of athletic activity at the
North Dakota agricultural college,
the prosects are that the institution
will put a good basketball team in the
field this season. Paul Davis, who
has been in the government service,
is expected to return to the city soon
to resume his work.
Jess Willard hasn't given anyone
a chance at his championship crown
in a 2 5 1 9 1 6
that night with Frank Moran in a
ten-round no-decision affair and Mo
ran would have had to knock him out
to obtain any sort of a hold on the
title.
Jess used his newly acquired circus
and later his oil interests as reasons
for his not re-entering the ring. Then
the war came along and Jess used
that to duck his obligation to the
sporting public. He played true to
form by acting like a cheese cham
pion when the Red Cross and other
worthy war organizations attempted
to enlist his services to help raise
funds.
Jack Dem'psey looms up as the
main contender for Jess' crown. He
does deserve a crack at Willard. His
decisive victories over Fultori, Morris
and others last year earned him a!
chance at Jess.
Mike O'Dowd earned the middle
weight title during the year, but has
become too heavy to remain in that
class and it looks as though Mike
Gibbons deserves the crown. He will
be considered as a champ, at least. I
Ted Lewis, the welterweight cham- I
pion, defended his title several times
during the year, although it must be
said that many of the boys he met
were repeaters, including Jack Brit
ton and Johnny Griffiths. Benny
Leonard risked his title but a few
times and may be forced to enter the
welterweight class soon. When he
fought Kilbane eighteen months ago
Leonard weighed 137 pounds. It may
be that 1919 will see a new light- I
weight champ. Richie Mitchell, Joe
Welling, Pal Moore, Frankie Britt
and Lew Tendler are likely looking
boys to seek his title.
Johnny Kilbane,. featherweight
champion, has announced that he in
tends to resign from his army duties
and re-enter the ring. Kilbane's
policy always has been to meet all
comers. He has never ducked a con
tender. Pete Herman is still the
bantam champ. Kewpie Ertle claims
an interest in it, but the last year's
battles do not give him any great
claim* Pal Moore, Wilson and Joe
Burman, in addition to Ertle, are.
still seeking a chance at the title.
If Jimmy Wilde, English flyweight,
visits the U. S. next season the pro
posed return bout between him and
Pal Moore will cause a boom in the
baby class.

Bulgaria Believes
Dardanelles Question
Will Soon Be Settled
Sofia, Bulgaria. Not-. 30.—(Corre
spondence of the Associated Press)—
Bulgarian political leaders profess to
be gratified by the entrance of the
Entente fleet into Constantinople and
express the belief that it'- assures an
equitable and reasonable solution of
the interminable question of who shall
control the Straits of the Dardanelles.
This problem has been the constant
nightmare of most of the Bulgarian
states, particularly of Bulgaria, Ru
mania and Greece. These countries
always have considered the possibility
of Russian occupation of Constanti
nople to be a serious menace to their
own national existence.
This fear was one of the causes
which led Bulgaria to take sides with1
the Central Powers in the War. Later
when Russia abandoned her exclu
sive claim to Constantinople, Ru
mania's entry into the war on the
side of the Entente was facilitated.
Political circles' in Bulgaria are
profoundly impressed by the giddy
rapidity with which events of far
reaching international importance now
are transpiring. The folly of the pol
icy pursued by the former King Fer
dinand and his government in Bul
garia has been brought home in a
striking manner to Bulgarians by the
recent developments. The same feel
ing is expected to prevail among the
young Turks, who preferred to trust
Germany rather than Great Britain
and France, although, it is said, these
powers and Russia gave to the Porte
a formal declaration guaranteeing the
integrity of Turkey if she would re
main neutral in the war.
The great mass of the Turks, as
•well as all other nationalities 'in Tur
key are said to be bverjoyed to wit
ness the termination of the rule of
the governing clique in that country
and the success of the Entente Pow
ers. They now realize, it is said, that
Germany -cared nothing for the condi
tion of the Turks but was solely con-,
cerned with her own commercial and
industrial schemes affecting Turkey.
The general
has succeeded
times and all political parties replace
confidence in the ability of the pres
ent democratic ministry of Bulgaria
to extricate the country from its pres
ent condition.
The organization of a society in
Sofia to promote the idea of a Balkan
confederation is criticized here on the
ground that it is premature.
