The war will Inject a new psychological aspect into sports of the future. Thousands of athletes, great and small, ''who laid aside their athletic equipment to enter the war, probably will return to their, given sport after the kaiser gets his. They probably will find themselves somewhat rusty at their game. But when they stack up against an opponent who hasn't been through the hell of battle they will have one big alvantage. The civilian "will know that he is facing a man who knows no fear a man who has looked Hun shells, poison gas, liquid fire, air bombs and other bits of German finery in the eye, has laughed at It all and has won out. The civilian opponent will not have had their fiery test. And it will take a pretty courageous player to forget this when'.he starts any kind of a game with an ex-soldler or sailor lad. This is bound to have a psychological effect on his opponent. And what is more It Is a ten to one shot that the warrior will play a much more dashing, interpid "game than he did In peace times. This will help further to take his rival off his feet, mentally and physically. It will be an interesting thing to watch when the big game is over.

JENNINGS NOT HOPEFUL.
BALTIMORE, Md., July 16. Hughle Jennings, manager of the Detroit Americans, who brought his Tigers here to play an exhibition game today, predicted that there will be no baseball next year. Jennings declared, however, that he did not think the government would bold baseball as non-essential until after the season's schedules are played out this year.
A Chattanooga player, Flagstead, has the honor of leading the Southern league when it closed its gate because of war conditions. He was batj,lng .379. Whenever a ball team slips below its expected pace the fan begins to dig beneath the surface for the reason. Mere pitching, batting and fielding records prove little to hla satisfaction. All of which is written to bring us to this point: White Sox fans are doping it out th.it the absence of old Kid Gleason more than the absence of Jackson, Williams and Lynn, is responsible for the poor showing of the crew from Comiskey's yard. It is said that the Kid bade the team a sad farewell when he failed to get in on a slice of the world series money last year. When the team made its first trip east the Kid was in Philadelphia, but didn't come near the team. Fan3 are remarking that, had Gleason been with the club no one could have induced the three members of the cjpib to Jump to the shipbuilding game. Take It for what it's worth. It sounds probable, at least.

!at the fort.

Three More Men Enter Five-Acre Corn Contest
Three more men have joined the five-acre ccrn contests, according to J. C. Kline, Wayne county agriculture agent swelling Wayne county's total number of entries to 127. The county leads the state in the number of contestants entered. The contests are being held under the auspices of the Indiana Corn Growers' association and are backed "by Purdue University. Gild, silver and broze medals are to be awarded all contestants who produce the best average yield per acre.
Newspaper Economies Letters have been sent to newspaper publishers in this country by the war Industries board, calling attention to the necessity for economy in. the use of prmt paper. A list op practices, effective yesterday' has been announced. All newspapers are to discontinue the acceptance of unsold copies, hitherto returned by newsdealers. The use of free sample copies for promotion is denied. Publishers are required to stop giving free conies
ing copies or where required by law to furnish copies containing legal advertising. Not more than one free copy, to be used for checking, Is to be allowed an advertiser. Newspapers are prohibited from forcing copies on newsdealers. Unsold papers can Dot be be bought back from the dealer, either at . wholesale or retail rates. The payment of salaries or commissions to agents, dealers or newsboys as the equivalent of return privileges Is not to be allowed. A-U free exchanges are to be discontinued. f These suggestions were largely made by the publishers themselves, at a conference with representatives of the war industries board, in Washngton, a few months ago. While the newspaper is called upon to give away more of what it has for sale than any other industry, still it has been unable to increase its revenue proportionately with increased costs of publication. So the greatest economy must be practiced. Freights are higher, news print paper has advanced, new postage rate's are expensive and burdensome, labor must be paid more in fact, everything connected with a newspaper has combined to , make greater expense and smaller net income. The feature of cutting off all exchanges and this rule applies to all papers and periodicals. However, they can subscribe for their exchanges. This, in the end, means merely an exchange of checks.
Agree Concerning the Exchange of Prisoners (By" Associated Press) LONDON, July 16. Andrew Bonar Law, chancellor of the Exchequer, In announcing in the house of commons last night that a provisional agreement for the exchange of British and German prisoners had been reached, said the terms would have to be examined carefully by the British government before ratification. For that
reason he could not make a more detailed, statement at present.
Believe Yield Will Average 35 Bushels Clarence and Robert Jenkins' of Harrison township are now threshing 40 acres of the best wheat in Wayne county, and it is estimated that the yield will average 35 bushels to the acre. S. W. Taylor, of the United States department of agriculture and J. C. Kline, Wayne county agriculture agent, in their recent tour of the countv to select seed wheat, chose
!the Jenkins field of 40 acres in Har
rison township as one of the best fields in this part of the state. Farmers who are in need of seed wheat should make arrangements at once to purchase what they may need from thl3 field, as Jenkins has no place in which to store the grain and will have to haul it direct to market. Farmers who will bring sacks and indicate the number of bushel3 they need will be supplied. J. C. Kline said that he believed the average yield from this 40-acre field would prove one of the record-breaking yields In Indiana this year.
