ARMY GAMP TEAM TO PLAY MILLERKEMPERS SUNDAY The Richmond baseball fans will have a chance to see a double-header Sunday afternoon at Exhibition park, the first game between the Automobile Training Camp team and the Miller-Kemper bunch. The second game will be a battle between the Richmond and Cambridge City Militia teams. The managers and captains of the various teams are all very sure their team will win and Lieut. Morse says, "We respect the ability of the MillorKemper team. We are going to present a much stronger line-up than we have In our two previous games." The Cambridge team will have about 150 rooters along with them to back them up. The training camp team will have about 75 men with them to act as rooters. Early in the season the Cambridge militia team won from the Richmond boys by the tune of 2-1. Now the Richmond line-up is much stronger and will give the Cambridge fellows a good tussle if they do not win. Two or three weeks ago the Newcastle nine lost to Cambridge City, 4-0. Last Sunday Richmond batted Newcastle .all over the map and wiped up the earth with her and won 16 0. The dope for Sunday favors the Richmond team. The line-up of the Cambridge militia team Is the only one completed. It is: Winters p, Peele c. Hunt lb. Baker 2b, Difendorfer ss, Kerlln 3b, Jones, If, John cf.

Spectacular Feature to N. Y. Steeplechase SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y., Aug. 10 The steeplechase over the full course in which only Robert Oliver, Reddest and Early Light engaged, resulted in one of the most spectacular affairs ever seen in a race of this description. There was no untoward incident of the trio's running until they came to the Liverpool, opposite the clubhouse,- at which point Reddest, the leader, bolted, to be followed in quick succession by Early Light and Robert Oliver. Allen, in his effort to prevent Robert Oliver from bolting, wheeled him so sharply that he. was thrown out of the saddle and landed on Early Light, but his quick presence of mind enabled him to practically Jump back into the saddle of Robert Oliver, which had stayed close to Early Light. Allon quickly wheeled Robert Oliver back into the course without losing much ground, but almost caused the fall of his mount by a too close take-off from the hedge. GIANTS MAKE OFFER TO NAP LAJOIE CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 10. Napoleon Lajoie, one of the greatest players the game has ever known and acknowledged king of second basemen, may never play professional baseball after this season. Lajoie, who was thrown out of a job when the American Association suspended its season, is at his home here awaiting word from Manager McGraw of the New York Nationals in regard to an offer to finish the season with the Giants. -He plans to engage in a useful occupation after the close of the season. The veteran star was manager of the Indianapolis club until the association suspended as a result of Secretary Baker's "work or fight" order. "It was work or fight," Larry said, and I guess I'm too old to fight. Perhaps I was getting too old to play baseball, although there, are a few pitchers who stiil think to the contrary. I received a telegram from John McGraw, telling me to report to him and finish the season with the Giants. I asked for further information. Should he offer suitable inducements I might join the Giants.

PLEASURE AUTO MAKERS ORDERED TO DO WAR WORK Must Convert Industries Into 100 Percent War Work, War Board Orders. WASHINGTON. Aug. 10. Manufacturers of passenger automobiles were advised by the War Industries board Friday to convert their plants to 100 per cent war work as rapidly as possible and to place them on that basis not later than January 1,1919, in a letter addressed to the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce. In no other way, the letter stated, coulr they be assured of the continuance of their industry or the preservation of their organizations. The letter was in response to a proposal made Thursday by Hugh Chalmers, on the part of the manufacturers voluntarily to curtail the passenger car industry 50 per cent. The War Industries board declared that the present situation regarding steel and other materials needed for war work gave little assurance of material required for the manufacturer of passenger automobiles, even after providing for war requirements. Pending receipt of the board of sworn inventories of materials an hand requested last July 16, no materials will be permitted passenger car manufacturers, the letter states.

The sugar ruling is as limited as I ever, allowing two pounds to every 90 meals served, with one teaspoonful allowed for drinks and two for fruits or cereals. No ice is to be served in water unless especially called for, and although meat can be served every day in the week, the ruling for beef allows roasts I in Sunday, Monday, Wednesday and Fridays while steaks may be served only from 5:00 to 10:30 p. m. on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. A proposal was made for the association to hire an inspector who should make the rounds of the eating houses unknown to all the keepers, and report at the meetings under what conditions the food regulations were being kept.

Day by day dispatches have told the story of the hard fighting in this hill and valley region where belts of forest crown wheat fields and hills slope to creeks and ravines. There were roadfj embankments and natural defences everywhere, making perfect fighting ground and every village was fought for. The salvage dumps accumulating behind the allied lines testify to the size of the enemy effort and the greatness of his hopes, but extensive as they are, they do not amount to a fraction of that which he destroyed during the slow move backward toward the Aisne. Felt Russian Collapse. In this fighting, the allied powers felt the first physical effect of the downfall of Russirf. Much of the war material which has fallen into allied hands was that supplied to Russia by the allies in happier days. Officers who inspected the dead and question ed the prisoners, say that the German clothing was of good quality, that the arms were in excellent condition and that the rations taken from the dead and wounded as the allies advanced were plentiful and nutritious. The effect of the Amiens success on the Soisson-Rheims situation is yet problematical, but the best belief is that it will accelerate the enemy's withdrawal and possibly determine him to make a stand behind the Aisne, where his heavy artillery already is in place instead of holding the belt beMany old-time knitting machines have been dragged from the garret to do duty in the present emergency.

tion cannot be under estimated. An Associated Press correspondent has just concluded a trip from the Vosges to Soissons. He found a wonderful reaction behind the lines. The urban and rural populations display renewed spirits of confidence. Already in the battle region the farmers are returning to gather the harvest left standing and the villagers are making their way back to what remains of their homes. In the towns the stores and isns are reopening and Paris looks upon the mutterings of "Big Bertha" as the last spiteful effort of an exasperated enemy.
