FROM HEW RIVAL ' GAMES

liy II. O. HAMILTON' (Written for the lnited Press.) CAMP ICVSTIS. V.V.. Dec. 12 HasihaU U siikf to suffer from the war. r.oforo tliii riintlii'l mK-tl it was a common lliinyr for haselinll fjuis to slaRi' in arguim-nt over what miht he expected to happen to the national Kam; t the omi. It was generally contended that the soWurs would have a hie kick to mike when they came home and found that a, number of baseball players had done their bits aa timekeepers In shipbuilding plant's and as tailors up and down Hroadway. Hut that isn't the reason for the statement that baseball likely will be hit to some extent by the belligerency of the nations. It is a fact that the soltlieA themselves have become reasonably rrollcient at them." They have learned amateur sports according to a code of rules that does not exist in professionalized sports. The dollar has ben kept on the outside of the barbed wire fence and bus had no place in the

thoughts of the athletes. Several year uko small communities w hich supported minor lea true baseball clubs began 1o lose interest tn the game, and many U;nfcU-a were hit hard enough that they 1 isha tided, deserted cities, combined with other circuits, or resorted to othTr methods in a tlKht to keep them: elves entirely out of the hole. That was blamed to golf. It was contended that so muny men were leurnintc to p'.ay their own games thHt they had no time to sit in a grandstand and lt eighteen other men do their exercising. That is what is going to hit baseball when the war is over. Tho men who have learned new Karnes are Roin to continue to play them when the war itf over or they are soing- to be so set against other sorts of sports that they will ignore baseball. Of course, this does not apply to every soldier, nor does tt apply to all baseball players, but the effect of this feeling. already noted in the home camps, undoubtedly will be the most apparent when spring: comes agrain

I abla he will ever train another Ham- ! mond eleven and it will be hard to rind ' his equal.

Green was tlrst known to Hammond when he referred a (fame three years ago and as an official made an instant hit with the fana.

On a train from Pittsburgh to Cleveland not Ions: ago two football scouts, tant by the Cleveland naval training chocl to the Pittsburgh-Georgia Tech gam were discussing- the chances of their eleven against the smoky city university. In short, they were telling each other why they could not beat Pittsburgh, the sensation of the season. A tall chap with a youthful face and grayish hair sat directly behind the disheartened scouts. He listened to their conversation. Then he introduced himself and said: "Let me have charge of your eleven for three weeks and we can bent Pittsburgh. I saw the game today and know what it will take." The. confident fellow was made assistant coach and after three days head ceach. He turned the biggest surprise t th year when Cleveland beat Pittsburgh, 10 to 0. Hammond football fans by reading this far will know who he was the man who made Hammond the champion of w. states Ed Green of Pennsylvania University and All-American fullback. At Cleveland they will tell you now that Ed Greene Is the greatest coach in America, But he nevr received full credit In Hammond for his work with Parduhn's club. Only the fans who attended the night practices and saw what Greene accomplished under great difficulties knew. With five and sis hours practice a week he developed a great machine to down the mighty Cor-

BELIEVE STEWART KILLED BY MADMAN AT LARGE IN CITY That a moron or maniac without a motive other than the desire to kill was the assailant who beat -. P. Stewart to death on Cunkey avenue Saturday night, and is at large in the city, is quite generally believed. No other theory for the crime has stood, the test of investigation.

NEEDS LIGHT AT PLACE WHERE MAN WAS MURDERED

Conkey avenue property owners are urging- that the city Install an arc light halfway between Hohman street and the Monon tracks on Conkey avenue. It was In the middle of the block that A. I). Stewart was beaten to death by an unknown assailant Saturday evening:.

A CLEAN STOMACH Hakes a Well Man

(BTDR.L W. SHORT. )

v'" Jr. 1 fii ) ,

The body is a highly organized .machine of complicated parts in which the stomach, liver and the kidneys work for the common good. Damage to any one of these organ3 interferes with man as a motor mechanism. If you clean the stomach, liver and bowels occasionally with a gentle laxative you can keep well. Too much fuel in man's machine, mch as eating too much meat, or alcohol or tea, nervous overwork and lack of exercise in outdoor air bring constipation and bad health. Eat less meat, plenty of vegetables, and with air and good exercise you need little else. If the liver needs rousing and most of us need this once a week take a

safe vegetable extract of the leaves of aloe, Mayapple, root of jalap, made into a tiny, sugarcoated pill, sold by almost every druggist, as Dr. Pierre's Pleasant Pellets, and' first put up nearly fifty years ago. In vials, twentyfive cents. Most people die eventually of an over -acid condition. If the blood can be rendered more alkaline, the longer we live. With regular hours, six to eight glasses of water between meals, sensible coarse food and a chance to get. the poisons out of. the system, a man will live, to be a hundred. But, unfortunately.

' our highly nervous way of living

brings increased storage of uric acid in the body, This acts as a poison, and consequently we suffer from headaches, neuralgia, lumbago, aches or pains, rheumatism, gout. "Get rid of this uric acid poison by taking a harmless medicine, called Anuric, which throws out the uric acid by stimulating the kidneys. Drink a pint of hot water before meals and take Anuric (double strength), after meal3 and at bed time. Anuric can be obtained at almost any drug store for sixty cents, or send a dime to Doctor Pierce, Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y.. for trial package.
