Coach Claude J. Hunt, director
of athletics at the University of
Washington, unifolded liis portly
bulk the other day, assumed his al
most perpetual smile aud said he
didn't know any more about foot
ball conditions at the university for
the coming year than anybody else
did. Eventually, however, like all
great coaches, he "opened up" and
said lie was willing to bet this was
going to be one of the biggest
sport seasons the institution has
ever st-en.
"We are only sure of three meu
and we're not certain of them," said
the coach. "I am going to get thn
men on the field ju^t as soon ns
school opens and they are going
to stay there until the last game
is played. The men will be train
ed for the Whitman game right off
the jump. 1 feel that this game is
going; to be one of our hardest. I
am going to play straight foot
ball. Virtually all institutions are
cuttiug out these fluffy plays and
gettiua' back to bucking the line."

American Training Camp la
France—(Mail)—American, in£antrjfr
men o* the expeditionary army; held
their first field day yesterday since
their landing In France with
Georges Clemencau, former French
premier as the guest of honor. A
battalion of an infantry regiment
gave demonstrations of machine gu*.
rifle and bayonet assaults, con
cludir.^ with a genuine American
athletic program, including hundred
yard dashes, tug-of-war and boxing
bouts.
The entire battalion, that partici- !
pated in the program lunched in
the ooen air, Mr. Clemenceau being
the guest of General Bibert, and the
French officers dining with the Am
erican brigadier generals. In an
address to the American officers,
M. Clemenceau said:
"I feel highly Ignored at the
priviltt'e of addressing you. I
know -America well, having lived in
your country, which. I have always
admired, and I am deeply Impressed
at the presence of an American ar
my on French soil in defense of
liberty, right and civilization againsU
(barbarians. My mind compares this
event to the pilgrim fathers who
landed on Plymouth Rock, seeking
liberty and finding it. Now their
children's children are returning
to fight for the liberty of France
and tne world."
Later M. Clemenceau addressed
the entire battalion, saying:
"You men have come to France
with disinterested motives. You
came not because you were com
pelled to come, but because you
wished to come. Your oountry al
ways possessed love and friendship
for France. Now you are at home
here and every French house is
open t you. You have heard of
the hardships before you, but the
record of your countrymen proves
that you will acquit yourself nobly,
earning the gratitude of France and I
the world."

COL. THEODORE ROOSEVELT
PRAISES PATRIOTIC spirit
OF OUR AMERICAN BOYS
The Department of Labor author
izes the following:
Theodore Roosevelt praises the
patriotic spirit which is being shown
by American boys and young men
not ordinarily engaged in productiv
labor who are stepping in to fill the
gaps caused by shortage of labor
on the farms and in industry. Iu a
letter to William E. Hall, national
j director of the United States Boys'
' Working Reserve, Department of
Labor, the former President de
clares that the boy's patriotism can
be counted on to make him stick
where needed in this time of em
ergeucv, even when higher wages at
times lempt him to go elsewhere.
Mr. Roosevelt expresses his pleas
ure >ver the prospect of having
boys trained for essential indus
tries "o take the place's of men '
called to the front. Speaking of '
the value of the Boys' Working
Reserve, he says:
> "Oue of the great benefits you ,
confer is that of making the boy
realiz? that he is part of Uncle
Sam's team; that he iy doing his
share in this great war; that he
holds his services In trust for j
the Nation, and that though It is |
Eroper to consider the question of J
his own desires, yet that what he <
must most strongly consider at ^
this time is where his services will
do most good 'o our people as a
whole. I earnestly wish you every £
success in your wise and patrioto 1
effort." 1 l
