BREEZY SPORT GOSSIP ABOUT SOLDIER BOYS ilR TREP1CRES

PARIS. France. Aug. 12. 191S (Ky mail.) Rnsebnl' Is bound to become a rermanent insTitution in France after the war. The bost indication that tho pnme will take a bip: hold here. :s th fact that tho kids arc picking up th.frort and wherever they have baseball paraphernalia the youngsters are playing our par.ie. Several factories have already started the manufacture of bats, balls and Kloves. It Is true those poods do not compare with our material back home, but this is only natural, as it Is purely an experiement with the French makers. The. balls have been found of very poor Krade. Tho bats break too easily, but the gloves are round O. K. even by the American rlayera. Another Indication that baseball will be taken up here Is the recent statement hv Prima Minister Clemenceau that it

was the Intention of the French government to keep a number of athletic and baseball experts over here to teach the French boys our eports. That is the best way to Introduce a sport In France. The French people themselves are rather a conservative lot to take up a new sport on the spur of the moment, but now that the kids are taking It up. the game is bound to prosper. Through the efforts of the T. M. C. A. and the K. of several schools have already been provided with baseball material and the youngsters are taking up the gam in great style. Both these organizations have cr will have numerous athletic directors over here, and It is a certainty That quite a few will remain over here after the war ti aid the French in learning our sports. Star to Competo. On September 15 a big lnter-French-Amerlean meet will be held at Colombes. the proceeds going to the athletic clubs in the devastated districts of northern France. At this meeting the best of the American athletes over here with the A. E. F. will compete against France's leading stars and a monster affair Is bound to result. The Y. M. C. A. has now divided France into eight athletic districts, with pome well-known man at the head of furh department. The leader will have charge of the athletic events In his district, and In this way all soldiers will b equally provided for with- material

and events, as it was found impossible to arrange everything from the Paris office. Jack F.ll.r . well-known NewYork nthlete. who nt present is in charge of the Aix-les-P.alns district, the rest place for American soldiers on repose, may soon have to sever his connections with the. Y. M. C A. hire, having received word that he will have to report for duty with the New York police force in September. .1. I.. Anguish, of Chicago, who has been actively engaged in the pl iyground work in Chicago, nt present is in charge of the athletic netiitios in the Paris district. In addition to assisting in the workings of the Paris P.as-ball League, he also is in charge of the athletio meets planned. He also announces that he has leased the big Xouveau Cirque, where the Y. M. C. A. will stage weekly

ooxing shows tor the penent or me wounded American soidi -rs and 'other A. E. F. members stationed In the Paris area. Fred Stone, veil-known former Illinois A. C. sporting director, will be in charge of the boxing shows and should be qualified to arrange some excellent sport for the boys here. riftj Thousand See Meet. As an indication of the interest bing taken in athletic events of all kinds by the French people, it is only necessary to give the attendance figures nt a monster meet hf Id at Colomb- s. a suburb of Paris, last Sunday. With the poorest kind of street car Jaeilit ies. over 50.000 persons crowded the big sporting field in the Racing Club of France, located about five miles from the gates of Paris, to see French and American athletes perform and also see a squad of war tanks in an exhibition. The big features of the meet had been advertised as a 3.00n-meter run between Abel Kiviat. the American champion.

and YermoulcVi. the French title holder. But two days before the m et Kiviat's unit was !nt to the front, and the American rack wis unnh'-e to compete. There was considerable disappointment as a result, as Kiviat has done the best running of the American athletes over here. Yetmeul'n and Kiviat were to have started from scratch in this event. A field of twenty-five runners faced the starter, tfcey beng strung quite a ways around the track when the pistol was fired. Vermeulen ran a beautiful rare.
