RIXEY HEARD FROM

Lieut. Eppa IJixey of the chemical division of the American expeditionary forces, is another ball tosser who escaped unhurt, although - having seen the heaviest kind of fighting in France. From Bar-sur-Aube Lieutenant Rixey writes that he is well and anxious to return to America, although he has no idea when he will be back. Before sailing for France the Phillies’ big southpaw hinted that he might not play ball again, but friends now in this country say they are sure he’ll change his mind upon his return home.
