WASHINGTON. Sept. 15. — World
sports records may be broken by draft
* ed soldiers of the new national army
• in cantonment camps throughout the
country this fall. Chairman Raymond
O. Fosdick, of the war department
commission on training camp activi
ties, hopes to bring our sport phenoms
I of many kinds, whose lights might
| have been hidden by the bushel of
prlvute life as long as they lived if It
hadn't been for the war, f
‘‘The great trouble with college ath
letics,” said Fosdick, "is that they de
velop a few men intensively and the
many not at all.
“The draft men's training is, of
course, compulsory. The best in every
man will be brought out. And when
you consider that none of the 687,000
is accepted unless he is physically per
fect, which is not true of the raw ma
terial college athletics has to choose
from, it is not unreasonable to expect
great things of them on track and
field.”
One of the greatest programs of
sports and athletics that Ameriea has
aver seen is expected to develop be
tween cantonment camps, particularly
those close together in the south, this
fall and winter.
“No set program of inter-camp con
. tests has been arranged,” said Fos
dick, “but the boys will be allowed to
develop their own football, baseball,
track and field teams for inter-camp
and Intra-camp meets."

EX-CZAR’S BROTHER IN
REVOLUTION CELEBRATION.
(By United Press)
WASHINGTON, Sept. 15. — Charles
Edward Russell, Socialist member of
the Root commission to Russia, today
told the following interesting experi
ence in Petrograd:
"I was walking along the Nevsky
> Prospect with a friend, viewing a gi
, gantlc demonstration of 500,000 peo
ple celebrating the victory of the re
volution when I observed coming to
ward us a tall, well groomed and care
less looking gentleman. His derby
was set roguishly back upon his head.
He was swinging a cane and smoking
a cigarette. ‘Do you know what that
is?' asked my friend. ‘On replying In
the negutive. I was informed: ’This
is the Grand Duke Machael, brother of
ex-Czar Nicholas.'
“The former heir apparent to the
throne of all the Russlas seemed quite
pleased with the demonstration. He
was having a jolly good time and ap
peared to care very little for the fate
of his brother or the fact that he was
now simply Citizen Michael Alexan
droviteh Romanoff.”

12,000 CAR TICKETS BUY ONE
CORK LEG IN LONDON.
(By United ITestt)
LONDON, Sept. 17 -London school
girls have discovered a connection
between old street car tickets anti
cork legs for legless soldiers. Or
rather, they have found a relationship
between one cork leg and twelve thou
sald tickets. That number turned In
at a London hospital buys a cork leg
for a crippled Tommy, and the girls
are now picking them up off the side

Dredging Bar North of Juneau.
It Is stated that the war department
has authorized the dredging of Canoe
Pass, which is on a direct line west of
and parallel with the (lastlneau chan
nel. This would permit fishing boats
to enter Juneau from Cape Spencer
via Chatham strait without having to
go around the south end of Douglas
Island, also shortening the route to
Eagle river and other mining and agri
cultural districts by about 30 miles.
