By H. C. Hamilton, (United Press Staff Correspondent.) f NEW YORK, May 2. The zip, the pep, the earnestness and the all round dash included in the makeup of the Boston" Braves which carried that team from the depths of last place to a world's championship in 1914, stand a chance of tearing boles in an otherwise well laid out plan of one John McGraw this year. The Braves are different from oth er baseball clubs. They are trained that way by Oeorge Stallings, and because they are different, fans are born all over again in the enthusiasm of baseball when they visit a pntk where 'the Boston ruffians' are per forming. ' v '-'' ' It is natural for a baseball player to get out on the field, smite htm-' self with his hands, jam his paws to gether and shout "A'ttaooy." "' But with the Braves it's some thing else. : A shout from a member pf (hat baseball club Is one step in the Oeorge Stallings method of Win ning a baseball game. Ed gpnetfJhy s Just B B-r9Bti big Overgrown man wfeo learned to play ball.- John Evers is a bundle of nerves, ". always fighting. Walter Mara-hville is a little fellow with a marvelous pair" of hands' and a set of nerves "that won't quit fighting. Red 'Smith1 is just a ball player who has learned to fight and fight hard for every step in a baseball game. Sportsmanship, they say, is a word hat doesn't thrive in the vicinity of Braves field. But watch the turn stiles where' the Braves play. The crowd likes it. To watch the Braves In action is the most entertaining thing in sport. The Braves are not made up of high class stars, every cog perfect.. .They are Just plain, every-day ball play ers, some of them men who couldn't hold their places on any other team. Stallings has been given , a record of had words on the baseball field, a heavy fist and a growl for every player. But players never performed for 'tnother manager like they do for George Stallings. . In the var nacular of the streets, ya gotta band it ta George. Stallings is making a bid for pen nant honors this year In the fane of the moBt trying opposition. He Is facing the New York Giants, a pow erful aggregation of baseball play ers.- But It will pay to turn back over history's pages and note that John McGraw had been voted a pen nant in 1914 and that he had actual ly reached the crest of the heap and was driving along when the Braves - came along and wrecked .his little ' wagon, in their mad dash from last to first place. .

To bring the efforts of states Into a "working unity with the national government for the prosecution of the war," representatives appointed by the governors of the various states are meeting here today with the Council for National Defense.

By M. L. Stcpp. I wouldn't want a dastard for a sweetheart, I'd rather be an old maid all my life; ' A man must be a patriot of his country If he ever wants to call me his wife. If mothers teach their sons to shun tho army. We'll be the laughing stock of all the world. Uncle Sam, the football of all nations. And the. Stars and Stripes in dishonor furled. I'll cast my love upon the path of honor. And smile, though breaking Is my heart,.. . ....... I'll think of him and pray for him And try to do a loyal sweetheart's part. Though cruel foe may wound and mangle him. Perhaps from him his manly looks be torn. But if he has breath left to say "I love you," I will marry him as sure as I was born. If he gets ill I'll quickly go and nurse him And help htm win his strength to fight again, I will stay as near the front as they will let me.' And help the sick and wounded men. If he dies in battle I will mourn him As my hero who has struggled for the right; Our country will not be fit to live In .. If our brothers and our sweethearts will not fight. Some wonder why the women love the Bluecoats, Be he soldier, sailor or marine. Why they -always wave their handkerchiefs to cheer him When on parade the troops are often seen, i It isn't in uniform that he is so handsome, It's not because he looks so spick and span But "Because he is the nation's brave' protector, He is the only real American Man." - "-' 1 hq was able to cnovinco Justlco Llnck that four quarts of alcohol, discovered In a box under sacks of grain in his buggy Suturday, was Intended for use only to rub down race horses.

UNWRITTEN LAW IS EXPECTED DEFENSE Professor Charles E. Vawter Goes On Trial Today Charged With Murder of Old Friend. .' (By United Fresa to the Bend Bulletin) ... CHRISTIANSBURG. Va.", May 1. "Unwritten Law" will be relied on by Professor Charles E. Vawter, of Virginia Polytechnic Institute, at Blacksburg, ' when be goes to trial today for the murder of Stockton Heth, Jr. . - This is one of the few facts known in connection with a tragedy shroud ed in mystery. ! The others are: : Heth was shot three times and mortally wounded as he tried to leave the Vawter home, where he was a guest, about 3 a. m., March 13. ; Vawter telephoned a hospital that Heth had been shot and needed Im mediate attention;- Physicians found Heth fatally bounded,' clad' 'only ;ih;, his night clothes. ' '' -. Heth, In a deathbed statement, Said he had been shot by Vawter, -who didn't have a leg to stand on ; Heth was, frequently over-night guest at the. . yawter home,. i But what occurred, that night In the professor's home is known only to three persons, '.Prof. Vawter, his wife, and Bernard Williams, a stu dent roomer. They have refused ab solutely to say a word about the killing. . But a statement Issued by the de fense after Heth's deathbed state ment left no doubt as to Vawter's plea. "Evidence will disclose a betrayal of friendship and confidence," said Vawter's counsel. "The day has not come, when the honor of a Virginia home Is no longer sacred." The defense, in brief, will offer evidence that Vawter awoke enrlv 'that morning, found his wife miss ing, slipped downstairs and got his revolver. Returning to the upper floor, Vawter suddenly met Stockton Heth, Jr., preparing to leave tho house In his night clothes. Without hesitation, Vawter sent three bullets Into Heth's body. LABOR CONSERVATION PROBLEM MOST ACUTE Means Is Nought to Stem Tide of Mi gration of Farm Hands Into Canada This Year. (By United Preaa to the Bend Bulletin) ST. PAUL, May 2. With farmers 3i)d agricultural experts co-operating to raise the largest crops In the his tory of the Oreat Northwest, a labor crisis which may defeat the careful ly laid plans to increase production Ms developing serious proportions. So serious is the labor shortage that plans to furlough hundreds of men who will be attending summer training camps at Fort Snelllng, and pour them Into the harvest fields of the northwest have been suggested. Attention will be turned immed iately to stemming the tide of migra tion Into Canada. Five hundred farm hands are crossing the line daily, It Is estimated. The Canadian government has began a systematic campaign to attract American farm ers and farm laborers to her vast fields left deserted by the call to arms. Homesteads are. offered on easy conditions. Men are given cer tificates promising they will not be called tor' military service Every promise of success and wealth is held out to them. - This campaign Is seriously objected to by the northwest. It is held Inim ical to the 'Interests 'of the United States and discourteous to an ally when the United States Is facing a labor crisis. ,' -: ' '" ' ' May buy alcohol to rub racing stock .
