NEW YORK. June 12.—A challengei
for a series of international soccer
games between the Belgians and any
American teamB has been received
from Lieutenant Hubin, captain of the
foreign combination, and there is
a possibility that the contests may be
arranged. The communication, which
was addressed to the commission on
training camp activities, asks if it is
feasible to schedule one or more such
matches in the larger cities or train
ing camps, the gate receipts to be
awarded to some war relief fund.
Lieutenant Hubin, who holds a com
mission in the Belgian army, states j
that the players of his team which1
have been selected from the various
sections of the army, have acquitted
themselves well in a number of match
es in both England and France. Aaide
from the actual travelling and living
expence of the team the players ask
nothing in the way of receipts and
Lieutenant Hubin states that he be
lieves that the necessary permission
for the trip can be secured from the
Belgian government.
While there has been no definite j
statement regarding the restoration of i
‘varsity football at Harvard, Princeton |
and Yale next fall, the impression is j
growing that all three universities will
support the game providing there is
a reasonable number of students from
which to draw material. Time for the
training is also a necessary factor
and in a recent editorial the Prince
tonian, the college daily at Princeton
university, comments as follows upon
the subject:
“Football requires a certain amount
of time and practice to harden the
players for the annual contests on
the gridiron, otherwise it is danger
ous. Will the university authorities
permit the men enrolled in the mili
tary course to participate; and if they
do, will they allow the necessary am
ount of time for practice which, the
coaches say, is required for the bodily
and physical safety of the players?
The development of a wartime var
sity will naturally not demand as much
time as our ante-bellum varsities, but,'
on the other hand, it will need more
than was devoted to practice by the
Informals last fall. Possibly over
training has been one of our troubles
in recent years. Certainly the infor
mal team was most successful, and
the men who played on it tell us that
but a very littel practice put them
in the pink of condition.
Taking everything into considera
tion, the authorities should be able
to find room on next year’s program
for football, and, what is more, for all
forms of intercollegiate sport. The
power to determine Princeton’s war
time athletic policy is in their hands.
We trust, however, that their deci
sion in this and all other matters
which have to do with purely under
graduate interest will not be made
without due regard for undergraduate
opinion.”
The presence of large numbers of
American and Canadian soldiers
abroad has caused such an unprece
dented demand throughout England
for all kinds of baseball supplies that
it is almost impossible to satisfy the
constantly increasing requests from
training camps and stations for balls,
bats, masks, shoes, gloves, and protec
tors.
It is estimated by sporting authori
ties that there will be a demand for
baseball equipment during the pres
ent season to outfit 2,00 teams, and
all of it must be exported from New
York.
A special report to the Department
of Commerce from Vice Consul Stew
■- -
irt S. Hayes at London states that'
he demand for athletic paraphernalia
in England has been decreased since]
ho war began about 60 per cent on j
all goods except football, boxing
floves and baseball outfits. The sup
ply of baseball equipment has at all
limes been less than the demand,
which foreign dealers sought to meet
jy importations, but, being unable to
^auge the market, they continued to
order in insufficient quantities until
:ho restriction of imports made the
obtaining of such gods extemely diffi
cult.
At present, with the American army
and navy forces in England, the de
mand has reached proportions that
cannot be satisfied without large sup
plies being shipped from the United
States. The books of a large London
sports store indicate the increase for
baseball equipment since 1914 In
1915 the approximate value of base
ball imports was $10,000, in 1916. $30,
000, in 1917, $40,000 and in 1918,
to date, $57,500.
On the other hand, the demand Tor
cricket, tennis, and golf equipment has
decreased as much as 60 per cent
and more. It is not believed that
this indicates any permanent loss of
favor by these sports, but is due to
the fact that they require special !
playing fields difficult to obtain, while
in impromptu game of baseball may be
organized at a moment’s notice. The
age limit of the British army was set
at forty-one years in April, 1916, with
the prospect of being raised to 50,
so that every able-bodied man is en
gaged in some work of such national
importance that he has no time for
the widely popular sports of peace
times.

ANCHORAGE, June 13.—Dredging
operations by the Alaskan engineering
commission for the improvement of
Anchorage harbor are going forward
in vigorous fashion. The dredge
Sperm, which was assembled and
tested here last fall, is working con
tinuously with changes of crews in
front of the face of the proposed dock.
The earth that the dredge removes
from Its place of anchorage by means
of a suction pump is carried a con
siderable distance in a long stretch of
pipe, supported by a line of pon
toons. hooked up to the dredge. This
earth is discharged so that it will
form a sort of embankment to pro
tect the dredged bowl of the harbor.
The dredged approach to the proposed
dock will resemble the shape of a
crescent, with the points extended to
ward the sea.
The improvement, in all its details,
will not be completed before the cold
weather of next winter, but, accord
ing to expectations, the dredging will
have progressed sufficiently far by
next fall to afford anchorage for large |
steamships.
The work is under the direction of
William Gerig, engineer in charge of
the Anchorage division, who planned
it. Mr. Gerig has had extensive ex
perience on the Atlantic seaboard, the
Mississippi river, and in the Panama
canal zone in tasks of this character.
Immediately in charge of the under
taking is Charles W. Fink, who re
cently came here from the Panama
canal zone, where for years he was
engaged in solving dredging problems
and in making harbor improvements. I
