FOOTBALL RETURNS AT AMUSEUM THEATRE P rinceton w ill play H a r v a r d next S a turday rig h t here in M cAllen and the strange p a r t of it all is the fa c t th a t the game w ill s t a r t ju s t one hour earlier th a n the game scheduled in the E a s t. The game here w ill be played a t the Amuseum th e a tr e b u t on an im p rovised football field and the W e s tern Union w ill supply the full returns, play by play. This w ill be a big day for the foot ball fans here on the B o rder and a larg-e crowd is going to turn out.

I t seems th a t a t least one team of the New Y o rk D ivision should be rep resented in this tournam e n t and w ith such an abundance of All-A m erican m a terial a good team is assured. The C a v a lry seem to have the cream of the players and would be the m o st 'logical unit to r^ r e s e n t the division.

Y. C a v a lry at B row n sville a f te r th e ir arrival. The Cavali-y left M cAllen for B row n sville last T h u rsday. Speaking of the review ' ‘ T h e B row n sville S e n tin e l” says: ‘ ‘ T h e inspoction w a s w itnessed by undoubtedly the larg e s t crow d th a t has ever w itnessed a m ilitary display since the troops have been here. The regim e n t treated G eneral P a r k e r and the spectators to w h a t w a s the best display of m o u n ted n a tio n a l, guard troops ever w itnessed since the mob- lization. In spite of th e ir long m arch from M cAllen to B row n sville both horses and men w ere in excellent con dition. The m o u n ts were in good flesh and w e re groom ed to perfection. A l though the men w e re equipped w ith old issue pistols and sabers, both men and equipm e n t told of careful tre a t m e n t and w^ere in them selves a recom m e n d a tion for the officers and non- comniissioned officers of the regim ent. ‘.‘G e n eral P a r k e r wms apparently well pleased wdth w h a t he saw, and sm iled his approval as .the platoons passed the reviewang stand a t the w a lk, tro t and gallop. The review Avas staged im m e d iately a f te r the polo game, the original order being reversed so th a t the 1000 troop horses m ight not tea r up the freshly rolled polo field. ‘‘A featu r e of the parade th a t a t t r a c t ed a g r e a t deal of atten tio n w a s the b e a u tifu l black horse ridden by Gen eral -Parker’s orderly. The anim a l is a lecent acquisition to G e n eral P a r k e r ’s stable and is one of the m o st perfect animals- in the garrison.

The men, too, showed the results of an apparently closer applica tion to and enthusiasm for m ilitary duties. A ltogether, the perform a n c e of the F i r s t New Y o rk C a v a lry came in the natu r e of a revelation of w h a t a m ilitia organization can accomplish when men and officers are w illing to buckle down to hard w o rk and cut out the grum b ling.” HEADQUi^’''>’EES DETACH' 3NT Continued from P a g e 3.) in depriving Die N a tional G u a rd of the train in g it is entitled to, m erely to satisfy the capricious notions of a pred- judiced officer? The W a r D e p a rtm e n t itself in the estim a tes Avhich it issued to the press, and were published broadcast in new s papers on Ju ly 2nd, stated th a t the sum of $9,640,800 was asked: ‘‘For the organization, equipment and maintenance of 12 aero squad rons, for the 12 militia divisions ordered into service, either in the Militia or from the Regular Army- Reserve and the Officer’s Reserve Corps.” W h y , then, have there not been s“ ps tak e n to train the hundreds of ISational G u radsm en who w ere eager to join the a ir service— a n d w h y were the hundred N a tional Guardsm en kept idle a t M ineola for m o n ths, u n til they could stay no longer? Attitude Towards National Guard Same as Former Attitude Towards Civilian Aviators Who are Now In Franco-American Flying Corps. The A v iation S e c tion’s present a t titu d e tow a rds N a tional G u a rd av i ators is exactly like the a tt i tu d e to w a rds civilian aviators in 1913-1914. Several of those red-blooded A m e ri can aviators wdio are now in the Franco-A m e rican F lying Corps, wmre anxious to join the U n ited S tates A ir Service then and w ere told th a t ci\d- iian aadators would never am o u n t to anything. They have proven th a t the A rm y men w e re w rong, and AA-e haA^e alreaciy had occasion to reg iet th a t a-‘'titu d e . H a d the aviation Section adopted a constructW e policy then, there could have been organized re serve aero squadrons composed of civi lian aAaators, and the M e x icans would undoubtedly have had more respect for A m e rican lives and A m e rican property. U n d e r the nerv N a tional D efense A ct, the N a tional Guard, being Fed- eralizerl, can be as efficient as the A rm y cares to m ake it.
