Although a number of stars were lost through graduation and still others have proffered their service to their country and are serving In the army or navy, football will be continued at the Carlisle Indian school, according to an announcement made by John Frauds, jr superin tendent of the Institution, prior to the departure of the majority of the students to their homes for a vacation or to various parts of the country un der the outing system. An eleven vrlll be pleked from the material available, whether the number of candidates U larse or small, and this team will carry out the schedule aa arranged prior to the declaration of war with Germany. The schedule has been completed and the local authorities expect the majority of the Institutions listed to mer will be mainly confined to base play tbeir games even if they have i bail, the students remaining In the to draw upon green men to replace vicinity or who are working nearby the stars who have gone to the colors, i having organized a fast team which Superintendent Francis believes ' has an ambitious schedule with teams that athletic endeavor should go on , in this vicinity arranged. OYLAND THANKS to the generosity of A. p. Coles and the fact that park commissioner Fisher is a keen supporter of boys' sports, the junior baseball teams of El Paso are to have : a diamond on which to play their ! games. Since the cutting up of the I Infield at Washington park, there I has been no place available for the bo j-games and when this matter was brought to the attention of Mr. Coles, he generously allowed the free use of the block of land adjoining Rio Grande park on the west. When iir Coles's offer was made known to the park commissioner, be at once assured the boys that he would hae steps taken to fix a dia mond for tbm on this ground an It Is expected that the diamond will be in Khajie bv the end of next week Purine the prist two years, th Mnviand d-part-i.ent of The II' - .

The majority of the athletes at the Carlisle school are under the draft age. It is a peculiar fact that some of the most noted stars turned out here were men who had not yet reached their majority, so that the call for those between il and 31 will nave little effect so far as athletic material is concerned. It t expected that the enrol ment at the school In the fall will he fully up to normal, many of tne who bave gene to their lioroen ntutlnc that they expect friend and relative, to npply for ndm!n4n here.

Should the Texas league race start as usual next season and the chance for such a contingency seems cw more favorable than In the past few months there will be sundry changes to be made In the various clubs and probably in the makeup of the cir cuit as well. It is by no means as sured that the war, even should It continue over winter, will knock out baseball; for the great minds of the government have placed their stamp of approval on sports of all sorts. Certain, too, is it that war thus far has not interfered with the game in Texas. It will be no surprise to see Shreve port drafted into the Southern asso- I elation to replace Mobile. Shreve- port seems to have such a not on. al- tbrough that town seems to fit bet ter lnte this circuit- Tbe Southern, too. la said to have made some plans tlonably mean the return of Beau mont to the Texas league ranks and a continuation on a six club basis; for Galvestlon once and for all has shown Its inability to support Texas leaiAUi baseball. The return of Beaumont would probably mean the return to that club of most of the players distributed among the other six teams. Tbis would cause a shakeup in several quarters. Even then Beaumont would have to fill up a lot of gaps, so all would start on about an even looting. The six club idea has been pro en a good one. and it ia likely to be perma nent. As for the trouble to be experienced in readjustment next spring, that would be undertaken cheerfully were baseball Insured the circuit for an other year. This and other leagues have faced worse crises than would be imposed by the exchange of Beau mont "for Shreveport. Texas League. If today. L. XI 42 41 4 53 Pet. .4t .54 .545 .514 .434 Win Lone.

"It's the duty of every American youth, and I'm both proud and happy to see my sons step forward in the righteous cause. I regret one thing vea. lust one. and that one thing hurts a lot.
