Collins, Hcrzog and llusb; ItiKlit, Comiwsito of Alexander, Sister unil By PA PL PUHMAX. Mr.; Fan, If you wero a baseball mannate, how would you like to have theso two fellows on your club? One of them would hit, play the outfield and run bases like Cobb and Speaker nnd cover the infield posi tions like llerzog, Collins nnd Bush.. Ho would combine thoj fighting spirit of llerzog, tho firo of tho Geor gia peach and the indomitable will of Tils Speaker with tho popper and good nature of Donie Bush and the calm,- cold-blooded assurance of Ed die Collins. ' Wouldn't he bo a wonder? Hit ting like that quintet, there would be scarcely a pitcher who would over find a weak spot In his swatting. He would "hit anything" and would pile up an average of well over .500 against tho cream of the big leagues. With Cobb's speed and craft he would boat out Innumerable bunts and Infield hits nnd with the com bined speed and sagacity of the flvo he would steal bases almost at will. In tho outfield he would combine Speakers' uncanny ability to guess where a man Is going to hit and his throwing accuracy with Cobb's tricki ness. In ' tho Infield lie would : cover ground with the speed of Bush, the cunning of Collins and the dash of Horzog. ' t ' 1 And Mr. Fan, you probably would not turn down the other player, a combined pitcher, catcher and first baseman. Ho would servo you Alexander's dazzling, speed; and bewildering curves from his right hand and then would turn around and feed you southpaw slants such as Sisler can shoot over when he is in the box. Or ho would go behind the plate with the brains, speed and accuracy of Ray Schalk, where ho would get moro out of his pitchers than any other catcher, nip base-runners and gobble up every foul and bunt in his territory. . Or he would go down on first base and cover as much ground as any other man in the game today. AVliat would a magnate pay for either of these flayers. 'Well, let's see. Speaker was sold for $50, 000. Either of these men would bo worth several Speakers. Of courser It's all a dream .and never could 1e real but It's mighty pleasant to think about. ' II. S. Gibson, the British govern ment forester from India, nnd Forest Supervisor Martin I Erlckson re turned from Crater Lake and Klam ath county last night. Under Mr. a-lckson's guidance Mr. Gibson In spected the forestry work and lumber operations In Klamath county.

EAGER FOR REAL WAR (Continued from Page One.) latter arc proving so a)t and the training camps aro so well establish ed, that undoubtedly It will be only a comparatively short timo whon but a few picked French ocors nnd non commissioned officers will bo retain ed to assist in tho training. Students, of the vjar, which has now entered its fourth year, aro con vinced that the morale of the troops and of the nations of the entente will prove to bo the final factor In decid ing the litanlc struggle. " Tho morale of the American soldiers In "Franco can easily be ollmatod by the avidity with which they take up the training in offensive tactics as against defen sivo work. The latter Is very essen tial, naturally, but it Is a phase of training likely to prove a lilt Irksome to troops imbued with the offensive spirit, as tire the Americans. They are sincerely anxious, most of Ihem. (or I In-i r turn in the trenches, even if at first It Is only a temporary sojourn al the front for training purposes. Eager for l-lulillng. The men are eager for a glimpse of war and there Is no doubt that It will 4idd Infinite zest to I heir future train ing and to their ability to train fu ture divisions. The men still are far eunuch from the Hue In sen little that has to lie with real fighting. Some enthusiasts at the camps have assert ed that they could hear the drum ming of the big guns nt the front, but there is little doubt Hint Imagination had something to do with the ncule ness of their ears. A brief tour of duly In the trenches will explain, much to them, however," and It will make them appreciate to the full the ureat deal of training which they now dn nut w bully understand.
