Military training for American League ball players along the lines ordered by President Ban Johnson resulted in a recent competitive drill between the Cleveland and Philadelphia teams. The reviewing officer was Colonel Raymond Sheldon, U. S. A'. President Johnson, Jim Dunn, of the Cleveland team, and Mayor Harry L. Davis viewed the drills from their I ox. The Indians, wearing their road uniforms, presented a fine appearance. . In charge of Captain Baker, their drillmaster. they marched with snap and precision that would have done credit to veterans. The Athletics drilled well, but carried bats instead of guns. Their work perhaps, was not so impressive because of the small squad, only sixteen men taking part. Both teams were highly complimented by the officials on the field.

"Gib" Perrone, last year's freshman captain and center, is also looked for. Ralph Burt last year's whirlwind quarterback, is not expected back. He probably will go East. The Ohio Conference teams will meet in Columbus September 21, to decide whether freshmen are to be played are not. It is believed here that action favorable to the first year men's playing will be taken at this meeting. Should such be the case, Miami will have a pretty strong team, for a number of very husky freshmen have enrolled, men with high school experience. One of these, Hinman Sharp, of Columbus, is a six-footer, weighs 240, and was last year star tackle on the Miami Military Institute team.

Four runs mean little when the Reapers appear against Richmond, and after the Quakers had been given a four run lead in the very first round, Dunne's men went in and pounded out eight runs, winning the game, 8 to 4. Lefty Altonthe Harvester who held the Quakers to four hits in the last series at Richmond, went in the game in the third inning with two men on the sacks and one down. The two men stayed on the bags, and the next twety men to face him went back to the bench in order. Cy Young started the slab work for i the Quakers, . and for the first three innings looked good. The Harvesters found his slants In the fourth, however, and with the score tied in the eighth, the Reapers blew in- with four runs.

TOKIO, Aug. 29. Cordiality and sympathy marked the luncheon given by the Japan Red Cross society to the American Red Cross Mission which was on ita way to Russia. The American Mission of which Dr. Frank Billings is chairman, was met, ; on its arrival in Japan by a large dele gation of Japanese workers including Baron Ihiguro, the president of the society and other officers.
