" SPORTS. THE 7 / EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, WEDNESDAY, \OCTOBER - 5, 1921 - SPORTS. 7 2 George Washington Grid Grows : U. S. Woman Golf Stars Opposing British Players THREE VETS AMONG SIX NEW MEN AT PRACTICE i BY H. C. BYRD. EORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY'S foot ball outlook was brightened yesterday when six additional players reported at practice. Among the newcomers were three veterans of last year’s eleven—Kay, fullback; Mulligan, lineman, and Searl, end. Kay'’s return to the game was rather surprising, for it was believed the husky back would attend another university this year. The other new men out ‘were Allen and Friedlander, former Alexandria High School players, and Krauss, a rangy athlete, who has played at halfback and end. these men at hand, in addition to John Loehler, who reported yes- terday for the first time in several days, the Hatehetites expect to send a ‘sturdy line-up against Western Maryland in the game here Satur- day. While the newcomers probably will not be conditioned sufficiently to start the fray, some of them are likely to get Into action before the final whistle. Play will be at Union Park, starting at 3 o'clock. Three G. W. Players Tl George Washington, however, may enter the contest with Shaw, a good flanker, missing. He, with Springston, quarterback, and Ptak, end. became ill with ptomaine poisoning after their trip to Charlottesville last Sat- urday. Springston and Ptak have about recovered, but Shaw's illness persists. Yesterday he was reported to have u high temperature and it is feared he will not be available for service with the eleven until late next week. Coarh Exendine and his assistants were busy at the Hilltop yesterday in an effort to correct the mistakes made by Georgetown in its_opening clash Wwith Lebanan Valley. More concerted play in attack is needed and there is room for considerable improvement in defense, according to those who direct the Blue and Gray. Jimmy Connolly, track star, was tried at quarterback and performed credita- bly. He may be assigned to that Pposition in some of the early games. Two Point for Bix Games. * Gallaudet and Catholic University Corby Baking Company bowlers easily vanquished the Longfellows last night in the National Capitol Duckpin League match, winning all three games bowled on the White Palace drives. Jenkins and Horning of the winning quint tied for high- {set honors, with 322 each, while Kamm, another Corby Baker, made bigh game at 124. Farnan's set of 307 and game of 112 led the Long- fellows. Scoring was nothing extraordinary in other league eugagements. Pro- hibition took two of three games from Sales Tax In the Internal Reve- nue League, while in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing League Ma- chine vanquished Liberty Loan in the same manner. Sweeps were recorded by the Nescos over Rudolph & West in the Businees Men's League, Bel- leau Wood over Soissons in the Marines' circuit and National Savings over Federal in the Bankers' League. In games on the Post Office Club alleys Post Office League engage- ments resulted in a 3-to-0 victory for Pennsylvania Avenue Station over Central Carrfers, and a 2-to-1 The® Kenaail oEh long drills ant!win for You Street Station over the Brookland this afternoon for —a|Insurgents. Bureau of Engraving and Printing took three games from Western Union in the Washington Ladies’ Duckpin League. Among the best performances of the night were those of Mrs. Thomas W. O'Brien, 1845 Calvert street, and Daniel Timothy Ring of The Star Novelty League. Bowling on the Ar- cade alleys, Mrs. O'Brien made four counts of 108, 131. 106 and 109, for an average of 113. In his second game. “Blanche” Ring hit the maples for a mark of 137. scrimmage with the Maroon and Black. The Gallaudet has been drill- ing at top speed for a week and. while it must depend upon its new material because of a dearth of vet- erans. expects to give Franklin and Marshall quite a tussel in the game t Lancaster Saturday. Catholic Uni- wversity is pointing carefully for its mext contest, that with Fordham, at New York, the end of the week. At Coliege Park the University of Maryland squad went through a lengthy work-out. With the excep- tion of Clark, tackle, the men came out of the Rutgers game condition and will be ready for the struggle at Syracuse Saturday. In the first team line-up vesterday Mc- Quade was shifted from fullback to the line, taking Clark’s position, and Paganucci was used in the backfield.

In its initial game yesterday, against the high school team at Alex- andria, the Stenographers at times showed what they really were cape- ble of Joing, but lack of drive gen- erally resulted In their defeat by & 12-to-0 score. There is room for improvement in the line, but its work was far su- perior to that of the backfield. Inter- ference was weak and what little wes offered was usually spurned by:the ball unner. Business showed best in- the second period, when it carried the ball from its 40-yard line to Alex- andria’s 5-yard mark, where it was held for downs. The Stenographers, however, still are optimistic as to their season {r.oapect& Three of the llnemen— nagan, tackle; Du Fief, guard, and Capt.

A caravan of six cars of various 7 | makes and vintage, carrying thirty-five students, including the majority of those who had been successful in disposing of their “soup and fish” 6 [and of obtaining an interest in the “Harvard_ special,” left Bloomington yesterday for the game. One of the automobiles was without a top, but the college boys did not appear daunted by the chilling breezes as they departed, singing “Indiana.” Since late last week students have classes at the university and disap- pearing on “blind baggage” or brake rods of east-bound trains. One of the first to depart sent back word from Philadelphia to members of the eleven, “come on, boys, I'll be there| to_greet you." Frank H. Level, alumni secretary, who with 8 number of alumni ac- companied the squad of twenty-five men when it left here last night for the east, said he expected to round up the half hundred or more students who used the unconventional modes of travel in reaching Boston and have them attend the banquet of the indiane alumni in the Hub the night before tbe game. —_— TILDEN IS DEFEATED BY RICE IN FIVE SETS PROVIDENCE, R. L, October 5.— JOCKEY, WHO EARNED $500,000, NOW PAUPER NEW YORK, October 5—Joe Ful- ler, famous as a jockey a half century ago, today was on Blackwell's Island, a pauper, although he earned ap- proximately a half million dollars in his racing days. Fuller, now seventy- four years old, gave himself up to a members of the polic narcotic squad yesterday and asked that he be sent to the island to be cured of the drug habit. Fuller did most of his riding an CHicago and California tracks for “Lucky” Baldwin, Phil and Mike Dwyer, John F. Madden and Hugh | McLoughlin.

Only two favorites scored in the seven events on the card, ibut all of the races were keenly con- tested and the victory of Moco, owned by Bernard Harding, a Washington- ian, in the opening number gave the jturfman's fellow townsmen a surplus of cash to add to their pleasure. The most popular victory of the day, however, was that of Billy Kelly in the Capital handicap, the six-furlong feature of the program. The J. K. L. Ross veteran was second choice in the field of six starters. of which Harry Payne Whitney's Crocus was overwhelming favorite. Crocus, under Coltiletti’s guidance, set the pace to the stretch, when Billy, with Kelsay up, opened a drive to win by two lergths. Crocus barely saved the place from Careful, the Salmon filly. Tippety Witchet in the mile and seventy yards sixth race and Crest Hill in the steeplechase were the only public choices to score. Upsets in the third and seventh races resulted in long-priced winners. In the former, Jim Bean's All Fair polinted the way to Dexterous, an odds-on {norse, while in the seventh. Hello Pardner set the pace practically all Ithe route in beating Scotch Verdict, an even money choice. !NEW ORLEANS RACING ASSURED BY DECISION NEW ORLEANS, October 5.—An- nounced intention of District Attor- ney Marr to prosecute officials of the Business Men's Racing Assoclation was thwarted when the Loulsiana supreme court granted a rehearing upon ome of the court's recent de- cisions. The racing season VYere is sched- uled to start Thanksgiving day. The rehearing automatically restrains the district attorney from prosecuting and reinstates an injunction granted the racing men. District Attorney Marr holds that the betting system in vogue her€ is @ violation of the state gambling law. CRIMP CUT LONG BURNING PIPE AND CIGARETTE TOBACCO INVADERS FACING TEST EAL, N. J.,, October 5—More formidable opposition today con- D fronted three English women who are seeking the woman's golf championship of the United States. The heaviest burden in the endeavor to retain the title at home fell upon western champions, past and present. Mrs. Melvin Jones of Chicago, present western titleholder, was matched against Mrs. Latham Hall of England, who so far in the na- tional tournament at the Hollywood Golf Club has shown golf as good as that of the British, French and Canadian champion, Miss Cecil Leitch. Mrs. Hall tied for the qualifying medal, and yesterday she climinated Mrs. W. A. Gavin of New York.
