TWO SPORTS OONTRASTED, Professional Lacrosse Players Show to Advantage, A correspondent of The New York Sun points out that only one' profes- sional baseball player from the major leagues has enlisted in the American army. The sole representative is 'Hank' Gowdy, formerly catcher for the Boston team in the National League. Other players have been photographed in uniforms, probably hired for the purpose, but those eligible, it is said, have applied for exemption. One of the most noted members of the New York National League team is said to have been excused because one of his arms was shorter than the other, and maybe because both his feet were cold. It is not a creditable showing for pro- fessional baseball. The players in the big leagues, whatever slight phy- sical defects they might have, are all highly-trained athletes, more able- bodied as a class than any other in the community. They are invariably well paid, some of them as much as $15,000 for five months' work, They are petted by the pub- lie, regarded as Batighal heroes by average school THE END OF NOVEMBER FINDS US CONSIDERABLY OVER.
