(United Press) Ernie Snore, no-hit artist of the Red Sox, who recently gave his cervices to the navy added just one more to the contributions baseball is making to the national fighting forc es from Boston. Following the lead of Hank Gowdy, star catcher of the Braves, when he enlisted in the Ohio National Guard, Rabbit Maranville sard he would en ter the navy, and other members of the National league club are said to be ready to take the plunge. ' Chick Shortem and Barry are en rolled in the navy, Shorten as a yeo man and Barry in the eserve. Oth ers are contemplating the step. 'Baseball is giving its young men without a murmur. Leon Cadore, the brillfant young pitcher of the Dodg- 'Mxffkm ers, was examined and accepted a short time ago for the national army. He only smiled and said he was re-.dy. ! His spirit, while not typical entirely, I depicts the general feeling of ball players toward serM'ce. They have been taking it all very seriously, and jthe younger ones have expressed a willingness to begin service at once. Tho draft is going to be along in time to hit the world's series pretty hard. It doesn't seem probable that the government would allow tho play ers it takes to remal'n at their work until the seasons are over. In fact, Ban Johnson, president of the Ameri can league, and John K. Tener, prosi dentdent of tfhe National league, have declared on more than one occasion that baseball neither expects nor wants favors of that sort. Among the White Sox there are HUDSON H. O. Hjrriton Co., Sin Fnndico "Many owners of Hudson Super-six cart use Zerolene. We hear nothing but praise for it." FORD Fahy-Atterbuiy Sae Co., Lot Angela "we recommend Zerolene for the lubrication of Ford can." , MAXWELL J. C PheUn, Frono "Zerolene-; he beit of satisfao don." ' -. .' i . HUPMOBILE Mai. V Co., Portland "we are convinced tha. lerolene it giving uniformly satisfactory result." ZEROLENE TheStaudard Oil for Motor Cars Endorsed by Leading Car Distributors because the records of their service depart ments show that Zerolene, correctly refined from California asphalt-base crude, give perfect lubrication less wear, more power, least carbon deposit.

The Giants have a number of young players eligible. The world's series will be played regardless of what happens. Ban Johnson, Gov. Toner and dairy Herr mann, the three outstanding figures in the national game, aro convinced the public wants its baseball the re mainder of the year, with special em phasis on the world's series. The President's recent statement that he saw no reason for discontinuing sports of any kind, including baseball, has given the sport a new life, with the certainty of continuance even ff men gone from the game have to bo brought back into action War Department Puts Ban On Swords For American Officers ; JSXi. GEORGE MARTIN. ... (United Press Staff Correspondent) Washington, Aug. 28. The tradi tional sword will not clank at the heels of American army officers in France This is the first time in American his tory the officer's sword has been abandoned 'in battle. The Flrench and British banned swords for their officers during the first year of the war. America, now in, follows .suit of official order of the war department. The reason is simpta and sufficient. During the first year of the war French and British officers were easi ly distinguishable from their men by their swords, uniforms and insignia American officers on ,. .the .western front now cannot be seen farther away than the whites of their eyes. ; They wear the same sertfee uniforms and carry the same arms as the enlisted men of their commands. The war department lias employed experts to devise cloth colors, and but ton and insignia material to make the troops as invisible as possible. The buttons on the airmy field service uni form and dark bronze. The insignia on an officer's coat are small bronze, dull silver or gold devices which can not be seen across tho street. The only difference between the in signia on the collar of an officer and on that of an enlisted man is that tho and the Boche sharpshooters concen-' enlisted man's letters are on a disc trated their fire on them with deadly "We an officer's are in a straight lino effect. a"d separated. The idea ever since has been to , Re.SuIar army insignia on the col make commanding officers look as'? ' 'U- S" and on the "serves, much like enlisted men as possible.
