posed of three teams, one from the Whitewater, the Twenty-second play
grounds and the Hlbberd playgrounds. The Hibberd and Twenty-second playground teams have already played two games. The Twenty-seconds were victorious both times. . Two games are scheduled this week between the Twenty-second aggregation and the Whitewater nine the irst was played Wednesday afternoon at the Twenty-second street playgrounds and the second game will be scheduled for either Friday or Saturday. The following men have been playing on the Twenty-second Playground team: Thornburg. pitcher; Shumaker, catcher; Thomas, 2b; Markins, ss; Hill, 3b; Voss, If; Walls, lb; Eversman. cf ; Wettlg, rf.

Baseball, both outdoor and Indoor, tennis, hlghjumping and cro.qurt are the vogue among the young athletes. With the starting of the two baseball leagues, Lyboult expects,
a larger number of boys to participate in tha summer pastiming. The organization of the Sunday ftchool league is not a certain thing, Lyboult Bald Wednesday, but if four teams can be put in the field the league will be organized. The St. Mary's, Bethel A. M.

The sectors indicated by figures 1, 2 and 3 are those now held by American forces.

Ralph Mulford, the ever-smiling, is the latest automobile race driver of note to express a desire to win the speed championship this season.

chosen as a member of the All Western team. At West Point, from which he just graduated, "Ollie" gained more laurels than any other great army athlete, including Daly. He won stars, in football, track, baseball and basketball. A few weeks ago on graduation day, he was presented with two honor swords for making high marks In athletics. He was the first graduate to be awarded with two swords since the founding of the institution. The same day, which was also his wedding day, he was awarded Miss Barbara Bendict of New York.

Continued From Page One.l the enemy machines passed directly beneath us, shooting upward. Firing Was Incessant. "The firing was incessant from the beginning and the air was blue with tracer bullet smoke and the Germans used explosive bullets. "I devoted my time to the port side where four planes offered fine targets. Once I looked aiound I noticed my commander was in a stooping position. I thought nothing of it until a few minutes later when I looked again and saw he was still in the
same position. Then the truth dawned on me that he had been hit, and looking closer, I discovered his head was in a pool of blood, but for the moment I could not leave my post. "We kept up a fine running fight although our machine was cut off from the rest and surrounded by seven seaplanes. We fought for ten miles until we drove off seven Germans, sending down one out of coontrol and
crashing another in flames from a height of two thousand feet. The five other machines were sseverely punished by our gunfire. "During the last few minutes our engine began stopping and the engineer reported that the petrol pipe had broken. Meanwhile I had laid the
commander in the cock pit and taken!
his seat. "The whole engagement lasted a half hour and I think we did very well. Afterward my machine descended into the water where repairs were made and we returned to port. The whole
flight lasted sevsn hours."
