NOTED FOOTBALL COACH MAY BE SENT TO FRANCE BY UNCLE SAM FOR CAMP SERVICE

A report received In Harrisburg
rfo-day aays that the United States
government la about to employ Glenn
Warner, the former coach for Car
lisle Indian school and now with the
|Ttntversity of Pittsburgh, to train
the American aviators, belicvinff that
[this wizard of the clubhouse can
hnake just as efficient fliers as foot
ball players. The announcement

S Warner's who says that he is in con

fans. An aviator has to be

fullback. This is where War
shines. He is a thorough slu

put cour&ge in any faltering
man, if there be such. When;

Carlisle some years ago he was
:nough to lick his weight in wild

put him in the line against a

Steel League Looks
For Big Season
The Bethlehem Steel Company,
with its usual progressive spirit, is
going to do'everything possible for
the success of its baseball circuit
President E. G. Grace will again offer
a silver cup to the pennant winner.
Vice-President H. E. Lewis, of Beth
lehem, and J. E. Gheen. another high
official, compose the executive com
mittee of the Steel Corporation Lea
gue. Steelton will have its park on
Cottage Hill where there is accom
modation for at least 2,000 and prac
tically all the baseball zeal of this
neighborhood will be centered down
there in this steel league season con
test. • .
The Bethlehem team is having a
fine start and it is evidently the ob
ject to run away with the rag like
McGraw, at the very start. Tom
Keady, Lehigh University's famous
baseball and football coach, will be
the mentor of the local team of the
Bethlehem Steel Corporation base
ball league. The men who have al
ready been signed up are practicing
daily with the Lehigh University
men.
Frdm all appearances the steel
corporation league is destine® to cut
quite a swath in baseball circles, es-"
pecially in the West this year. Ap
parently money would seem to be the
least thing that is worrying the dif
ferent managements, from the way
big and little leagues are being sign
ed up.
There is a persistent rumor here
that the Bethlehem team has landed
Hans Lobert. the former New York
Giant's inlielder. It is stated that
the management has been in commu
nication with Lobert, and while it
is understood the terms offered are
satisfactory the negotiations have
net yet been closed. Lobert is only
one of four big league men that it is
said will wear the uniform of ihe
steel league this year.
Reds in Triple Play,
Sure to Cop Pennant
In twenty-four hours Cincinnati
will be claiming the -.pennant. Scan
the papers and see if she does not.
Yesterday the Reds pulled a triple
play, and that is enough to start the
dopesters of that city wriggling out
how Matty will win the pennant.
Triple plays are not at all uncom
mon. Nearly every big league team
makes one a year. But a triple play
singlehanded is phenomenal.

Western Athletes
on franklin Field
Two stellar athletes from the West,
Frank Shea, son of the University of
Pittsburgh, who is generally conceded
to be the greatest quart.er-miler in
America at this time, and SchoU, a
short but sturdily-built sprinter wear
ing the colors of the University ot
Missouri, carried off highest honors
among' the half thousand track and
field performers who took part in the
closing day of the annual relay car
nival on Franklin Field, Saturday.
Shea's running ranked among the
most remarkable individual track per
formances ■ ever seen on Franklin
Field. Only the gerat "Ted" Mere
dith has shone in the annual relay
carnival as the Pittsburgh youth did
Saturday.
An hour after he had won a heart
breaking mile relay for his Alma
Mater In the Class B championship
by overcoming a lead of fifteen vards,
turning in a quarter that was un
officially clocked as 49 2-5 seconds,
Shea came out on the oval oncn
again, this time for the one mile relav
championship of America for the Mike
Murphy challenge cup.
Encouraged by the burst of ap
plause that greeted him when he took
the baton for the final quarter. Shea,
though once again seemingly too far
behind to win, tore after Sibley,
white-jerseyed runner representing
Columbia, and beat him to the tape
by five yards. It was announced that
Shea negotiated his quarter in 48 4-5
seconds. Shea's teammates were
Speck. Peters and Albrecht. The
time was 3 minutes 29 1-5 seconds.
The world's record for the distance
is 3 minutes 18 seconds, made bv
Mej-edith, Lippincott, Loekwood anil
Kaufman, running for the University
of Pennsylvania in 1915. Scliolz, the
Missouri runner, was easily the sec
ond topnotch performer. He won the
100-yard dash.
Harvard Oarsmen Wjn
From Princeton
Carnegie Lake on Saturday witness
ed the defeat of Princeton eight over
the mlle-and-seven-eights course by
Harvard. It was an unusual event
for it marked peace between these
two universities which had not fra
ternized for two years. The Crimson
oarsmen jumped to the front imme
diately and were never distanced,
though Princeton crowded closely for
<i time. Harvard Freshmen also heat
Princeton crew. 8 oars, by more than
two lengths. Four thousand specta
tors saw the regatta.
BAIX TEAM BUYS BONDS
Every player of the Mount Union
High School baseball team who took
part in the victory over the Hunting
don High School nine on Saturday, at
Huntingdon, bought a liberty Bond,
byway of celebration. The score was
10-7 in a very hotly contested game.
Want Freight Cars

Tractor manufacturers and farm

may be shipped In these cars. About
$80,000,000 worth Of farm machin
ery must be sent out . before April

Aa IK~~\ * atiß
With the greatest of all battles in
full progress. Brigadier General W.
W. Atterbury and the American
civil forces in France under his di
rection quietly but earnestly press
forward their big work of creating
there a complete system of Amer
ican military railways. They are
being constructed to meet every de
mand upon them for whatever may
be necessary to smash the German
might. To a correspondent of the
New York Tribune in Paris, General
Atterbury, vice-president of the
Pennsylvania railroad in charge of
operation on leave, gave an inter
view, as follows:
"We are building railroads, docks
and transportation yards in France
to-day as we would build them at
home. Our task Is to make two lines
of railroads from the sea bases to
the front, wherever this front may
be. Wo must Americanize the spurs,
sidings, branch lines and yards, and
it is most important that we do not
interfere with the belts of French
railroads which cross our path. We
arc digging under or going over
these roads whenever we encounter
them.
"The French lines have their own
problems. Tho diversion of traffic
due to the war has placed a heavy
burden on the French ports, shipping
and railway facilities. It is Amer
ica's policy not to interfere. The
French government deserves the
highest praise for its administration
of the railroads under war condi
tions and the constantly depreciat
ing equipment.
"France is giving us every possible
assistance, but her great network of
strategic railroads, planned and
built for the protection of her fron
Colonel M. C. Kennedy
With Two Sons in France
Among the American railroad ex
perts and leaders of men who are
doing such remarkable work in
France is Colonel M. C. Kennedy,
President of the Cumberland Valley
Railroad Company. His son, Lieut.
J. Coyle Kennedy, ha 3 been in
France for some months and his eld
est son, Thomas B. Kennedy, a first
Lieutenant in the engineers corps,
landed about two weeks ago. Writing
to a friend in this city Colonel Ken
nedy says: "It seems strange to be
living in this great city—the most ar
tistic I have ever seen—comfortably
and peacefully with the exception
of an occasional air raid or a salute
from the monstrous long-range gun,
and to realize that the greatest bat
tle in the history of the woild is in
progress not many miles away.
"It is astonishing the number of
prominent and interesting business
men who .re over here to contribute
their bit, regardless of the sacrifice
of their personal interests at home,
and the number of people you meet
whom you have known before makes
yon realize how small this world is."

These will be shipped to France and

"Several of our great transporta
tion yards cover many square miles,
and thousands of acres of storage
space are being rapidly provided, in
order to act as a reserve for the
enormous army which we will have
at the front.
"Everything vital to America's
success in this war reverts to ships.
As the Army will depend on the
rajlroadfl, both the Army and rail
roads depend on ships." He added:
Ships Big Factor
"Did anyone ever stop to think
that, in order to supply one pair of
shoes to a soldier at the front, there
must be not less than twenty-four
pairs in various stages from manu
facturer to storage on the American
side, from storage to docks, from
docks to ships, then the 300,0-mlle
Qcean transportation with sea and
submarine menace, from ships to
docks here, from docks to storage,
and then the gradual movement
through the supply depots and final
ly to the soldier?
"When you realize that this situa
tion applies to everything that the
soldier eats and wears, and to all
military supplies, it must be recog
nized why these railroads and store
houses are necessary.
"Our difficulties are great, in or
der to avoid tearing down parts of
French towns for the enlargement of
our railroad yards. We sometimes
are forced to go outside of town and
build a complete new yard. Some
times it Is necessary to mar the
landscape and the ancient landmarks
