Tills contest is only open tn u. fl. army
oil ner and we would like to hear from
every officer who Indulges tn golf a this
tournament will decide the championship
tor the ofrirers stationed In the vicinity
of El Paso. At least two score cards are
requested previous to the match In order
that all may be properly hondlcaped.
Onre again we must eipress our sorrow
for departing friends. Captain L. J. My
gatt leaves us Thursday and once more I
am put to the painful task or taking an-
other worthy golfer from my list. Cap-
tain you eaarry our beat wishes and we
ssk the maker of all to guide you in your
path of life.
The first Sunday of the new year
brought out a very targe crowd and sev-
eral good scores were turned in. Every-
body reports the good condition of the
links and I might say that we have added
a few extra men to the force In order to
put the course in the best rnndttlon pos-
sible rnr play. We anticipate some re-
markably low composite score and my
advice to those entered In this mutest Is
to get hi as much play a posalble before
the weatherman sends us a rull menu of
wind which Is apt to destroy some of the
good- work done on the course.
I have been asked to remind the golfer
of El Paso that tin Southwestern open
Tournament will bo held at Turson on
January lb and ic. It Is the desire of tbe
officers or the Southwestern Ooir asso-
ciation to have the largest entry In the his-
tory of the association. E. E. Ncrr. El

MAIN 01 T OF IM.OM BEFORE
ITS CUTI III
By Associated Press Correspondence.
Belgrade Dec. II. Were It not rnr lb
soldiery Belgrade would mske tlie imiires-
sion of a deserted city. Associated Press
correspondent the first American permitted
lo visit the city after its capture was sur-
prised to learn that nearly or quite one-firth
or the Inhabitants arn still here. Belgrade
had nearly 100000 inhabitants before the
war and there are now some so.ooo left.
As a result the better sections of the city
sre really deserted Hi the full meaning of
the word and the observer may wander
through the main streets of the city for
hours without seeing a score or civilians.
In comparison with many cities In East
Prussia. Poland and Belgium Belgrade did
was done In the main business section.
Here and there a shell damaged a building
more or less none was totally destroyed
and a tew houses bear the marks of explod-
ing shrapnel shells. Considerable damage
was done to factory buildings along the
bank of tbe Sire.
Chief Destruction. s
The chief destruction Is confined to that
part of the city south of the fortress. Tbla
section comprising from one-fifth to one-
fourth of the entire city 1 all but utterly
destroyed. A fierce street battle raged
here ror two nays ronowing me lanuing
or the Hungarians below tbe citadel. Tbe
Austro-II ungs rian artillery at first dropped
a great number or 30.5 centimeter shells
into this section to make it Impossible for
the defenders to hold their ground. On
the second day a report came that a Ser-
vian division from Obrenovac about It
miles west of Belgrade was marching to
Ihe support of the troops In the city. There-
upon the Auslro-Hiingartan batteries Istd
then fire further back to curtain orr tbe
approaching relnrorrement.
The. destruction thus wrought was most
thorough. In tbe whole section under fire
there is hardly a single building which was
not hit fairly at least once and most or the
very few thus undamaged were crushed
by the terrible air wave resulting rrom
the eiploslon or the shell rrom the thlrty-polnt-flve."
One or these great projectiles
penetrated four floors and the roof of a
building before exploding. At some points
a stench betrays bodies still under tbe
ruina.
Most of tbe damage done In the principal
part of the city dates from a yeir or more
ago. and Is mainly the result or shots rired
In answer to occasional shots from the Ser-
vian batteries. The damage to the old and
new konaks. the king's palaces dates from
then. No anots fell In this district during
the last bombardment. One large shell has
fallen into the ballroom of the old Konak.
but the destruction Is not so great as one
would expect. A small shell naa made a
hole into the new Konak and shrapnel has
marked It somewhat.
Two tioii. y lines are in operation In the
city directed and manned by the military.
The two drug stores still open are under
military direction with soldier apothecaries
In charge. Two or three moving picture
shows are also being run by the military
authorities. The proceeds of the drug
stores and shows are divided Into equal
parts one or whlcb Is kept ror the owner
for the even! that he ever returns to claim
It and the other half la devoted to taking
care of the poor of the city.
About 7000 Servians receive a dally ration
rrom the military authorities. Another 4000
are employed on various public works
such as paving street cleaning etc.. It Is
declared that the city la cleaner today than
It has ever been before.
Held to Explain Dose sad "Cus."
Charlea Flnlsy waa arrested on South El
I'aso street yesterday and placed In the city
Jail to await a hearing before the corpora-
u o.i court this afternoon. Five cans sup-
posed lo contain proscribed drug and six

lite. Flnlay will be asked to explain.

Stars of International Reputation
to Take Part in Proponed
Games.
By Associated Press.
San Francisco. Jan. 9. Polo Is expected to
have one nr Its best seasons on tbe paciric
coast during 1918. The Panama -Parirte ex
position tournament held last spring while
It furnished aa keen competition as the
moat ardent rnllower of the game could
wish was not Ihe success that wa hoped
for owing to Its loss of international favor
due to the European wir. The attendance
also fell short of what was ereeeted for
the reason mentioned and liso because of
the chill winds thit swept lernas the plly-
Ing field which mide It uncomfortable for
the spectators on this account the general
public was not educated up to the same
to the ettent hoped ror. Nevertheless thou
sands who never had seen the game were
initiated Into Its thrills and the result It
expected to bear rrull in the season's it-
tendince. Such well known stars la Malrom Steven-
son. C. Perry Deadleston. C. R Herhsher
and Thnmaa Le Doutllller II. ill or the
rimous Eastern Meadowbmok team are
expected to be seen In action on the coisl
when the seison opens sboiit tbe middle
of this month. The team has decided in
take part In the tournament of the Pariflr
Coist circuit which will be played at the
Coronado Country Inb. Pasadena. San Ma-
teo and Mldwlck Polo clubs. The Mldwleks
gave an excellent account of themselves In
the exposition tournament and generally
are expected to exhibit some brilliant play
during Ihe season. The forty days of ex-
position plsy gave them some excellent ex-
perience. J. Eugene Oeer. the eastern pole
expert who scored Ihe exposition rontesls
was Impressed iiy them and expressed the
opinion thst U.e members of tbe team
with another season or play together to
perfect their team work would become
formidable rivals ror any Tour In the coun-
try with the exception of a nationalist com-
bination. If the espoiltion stadium which Is on
foramment ground with Its playing Held
conserved according to the present plans
II Is expected that there will be a tre-
mendous boom for polo in army circles
and II is believed the cliance.t are bright
for a number of officers' teams to be In
the Held. .The contest in which the sol-
diers took part last spring were among the
most popular and Interesting of the entire
tournament with an excellent field close
at hand for practicing the anuv pliyers
according to polo mtliuslasts. would soon
offer a stirf opposition and Inriise no end
of Interest into any coast tournaments In
which they were entered.
Santa Barbara is another point where
there Is unusual activity in polo circles.
According to reports from that place C. W.
Dabney president of the sanu Barbara
Polo cfub Is quoted ss saying that plav
on Leadhetter field between local teams
will begin In about a week or ten days.
Among the well known players who are ex-
pected to participate tn the various games
are Richard Tobln Harry Hastings and
Felton Elklns. Others are Dr. M. P. Boes-
eke. C. B. Dabney. F. W. Leadbetter Edgar
Park Arthur Ogilvy and Elmer Bocseko Jr.
According lo report William Johnston
national singles tennis champion already
lias made up his mind to return east next
year and defend hla title. He also is quoted
as saying that he does not Intend to enter
into any competition during the winter.
This latter statement lias been received
with satisfaction by tennis followers In
general and his friends In particular for
the reason that his indirrerent showing dur-
ing the earlier part of last season has been
ascribed to the fact that he was stale from
overplay.
Johnston la a comparative youngster who
Is not considered as yet to have reached
the fullness of hii strength or the height
of his game and It Is generilly believed
that ir he uses ordinary Judgment In the
nutter of hli practice that he will defend
his honors successfully for some yean lo
come.
SUGGEST PLANS FOB BETTERMEYT
OF HARNESS HORSE CAME.
By Associated Presa.
San Francisco Jan. 9. The staging of
purse events for young horses. Instead
of so many early closing futurities and
stskes is is th present custom la tbe
suggestion made by C. A. Harrison of Seat-
tle for the Improvement of the light har-
ness game on the Pacific coast. In this
connection Harrison bas been quoted as
follows:
"More opportunity In this way would be
offered as an inducement to get young
horses to the races. Under the present
system of early closing events too nnlch
hardship Is worked on the small owners.
me has to enter Jwo or three years In
advance of the racé and the payments hive
to be met. Sometimes you pay up on a
horse until the last closing date and then
something goes wrong and you are out all
ihe money paid in. Many owners simply
do not enter the futurities and stakes so
far in advance and as a result there arc
few young horses In the competition.
"If there were some purse events more
horses would be trained and there would
be better sport. My Idea Is to have some
mile dashes for yearlings and three-heat
events ror two and three-year-old."
The plan la looked on with skepticism by
horsemen who believe that there would he
considerable risk Involved or breaking down
a promising colt or filly with the early
training. There are some who concede
that Harrison's plan might work out but
the campaigning or yearlings even for the
one-mile distance does not meet with gen-
eral approval. This together with seversl
other innovations la expected to be brought
up ror discussion at thr meeting of the
Parirle Fair association wblch will be held
in the near ruture.
The Influx of ( i rand Circuit horses driv
ers snd owners during the two big trotting
meet held under the auspices or tbe Pans
ma car ii n ej
in a derided
tins and pacing game on the Pacific coast
and an unusually active season li expected
In 1916. At a meeting of tbe horsemen held
during the last exposition meet tbe sug-
frestlon was made that the plan or schedul
tig a number of selling races similar to
those or the thoroughbred associations be
adopted in sulky competition. In support
of ihe Ides it was argued that the horses
through this means would be more evenly
matched. The conditions of the race would
call for horses entered to be aold for a cer-
tain amount and the driving of a $10400
champion against horses of much lea value
would be eliminated. This Idea also Is
likely to receive consideration when the
association meets.
Also It Is said that tbe newly organised
Pacific Fair association practically has de
cidtd to hold race meets In the following
ten California towns: Salinas Santa Ross.
Woodland Sacramento Pleaaantou. Fresno.
Hanfurd. Uakersrield. Ventura and River-
side. Additional meets may be added to
this list according to report. In past years
only a hair ooxen meets al moat were In-
cluded In the season's Itinerary.
