According to this man, baseball is rather a puzzle to the Frenchman, who gonceives of it as a wild, dan- gerous game and difficult to master, whereag soccer is played: with the feet and does not require nearly so much fineness. Of course, the American soldiers are spreading the game rapidly and making converts in unlimited quan-) tities, and the fact that the French do not have soccer as a national game, but merely as an adopted re- creation, may hasten the drive for Members Toronto Stock Exchange.

This American says that the time will come when it'will be seen that major league baseball teams, 'or teams of that calibre, will have to be sent to France to amuse the sol- diérs. It will have to he worked much on the scale that the theatri- cals are produced. The reason is plain, according to this athlete. After days of weary- ing struggle and strain in the trenches, the soldier is hardly in the physical or mental humor to essay a game of baseball. He<¢wants to be amused and have his mind lis- tracted from fighting. So he would welcome a chance to sit in the bleachers and root to lis heart's content for some of his old favor- ites of the diamond.

If Willard is anxious to - wager money on the result of a bout with Dempsey, he will be accommodated by Jim Coffroth, the Californian promoter, who says he will bet $5,- 000 on Dempsey to win the title. Ag Coffroth has had*long experi- ence in pugilism and is rated a good judge of fighters, his offer will car- ry considerable weight. Coffrath declares that Dempsey will be the next champion if he gets a chance at Willard. The coast promoter says that Dempsey has all the quali- ties that go to make a great fighter, including a stout heart. Race Likely to be Switched.

'Winn declared, however, that the race must be a sweepstake affair of $5,000, which would mean $25,000 to 'the owner of the lucky horse. Winn"s proposition will be discuss- ed by three owners. Play Under Inter-Collegiate Rules. In the event of the proposed games between the Ottawa and Mec- Gill Football Clubs taking place, and Ottawa also playing the Royal Military College fourteen proposed, intercollegiate rules will be in vogue. This request was made by day's conference, and has been con- sented to by the Ottawas.
