Herbert's latest vietim _was Eddie Polo, who fought Bobby Burke to a Iraw some time ago. Dencio lost a t0-round deeision to Herbert a month 1go at Boston, but the Filipino hopes to give a better account of himself this time. Dencio has been improving rapidly during the last several weeks. Fistic fans hereabouts expect him to estab- lish himself as a contender for Pancho Villa's crown. Joe (Kid) Peck, who faltered before Honey RBoy Finnegan several weeks ago at Kenilworth, will be given an- other chance to prove his worth when he tackles Frankie Rice of Baltimore in the eight-round semi-final. YACHTS IN LONG RACE. NEW ROCHELLE, N. Y., July 26.— The New Rochelle-Halifax yacht race in which American and Canadian boats will participate, will start from this city at 1 o'clock tomorrow. The race, first of the kind ever held, will be run under the auspices of the Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Club over a 600- nile cour: DOMINICAN AND PETWORTH NINES.

Harris & Co., while a similar trophy was given by Edward Voigt to the Petworth nine. ~ After performing in lethargic style for seven innings, the Knicks came to life in the next two sessions, pushing over a quartet of markets. Singles by Poore and Viar figured in the Knicks' iy in the eighth, while Mussell and clouted timely in the next ses- sion. With the Knicks threatening to deadlock the count in the ninth.

In addition to smacking a pair of blows, he snared a dozen siz- zlers afleld. The Knicks also presented a star in O'Neill, who drove a trio of triples. Had the Knicke spurted in the carly stages they probably would have brought home the bacon. Petworth Starts Poorly. A match equally as interesting re- ted in the Petworth-Mohawk game. Frank Krupp, former Central boxman, who toiled on the mound for Petworth, hurled in steady style except for the first inning, when he was nicked for five markers. He was opposed by the sandlot veteran, Finney Kelly, who was touched for ten bingles. Petworth faced defeat before Rheese, Gordon and Colllere led the attack in the sixth, when three runs put the game on ice. Colliere, Taslor and Cox dis- played Keen eyes at bat for Petworth, while McCarthy and Williams did weil for the Indians. The winning teams will be the guests of Keith's Theater tomorrow night. In- dividual prizes were given to the out- atanding players by Spalding’s, D. N. Walford, Peoples Drug Store, Golden- herg’s, D. Loughran Co., Schulte’s, D. J. Kaufman and Saks & Company.

Billy Gibson, representing Tunney, has the match under consideration. Eddie Kane, manager of the St. Paul light heavyweight, tentatively agreed to box Tunney before leaving for England with Gibbons, who is to box Bloomfield, British heavyweight | champion. The promoters have cabled Gibbons at London to obtain his acceptance. Gibbons defeated Carpentier at Michigan City. May 31, while Tunney scored a technical knockout over the Frenchman in New York " last Thursday. - PLEBES ARE GETTING PLENTY OF TRAINING ANNAPOLIS, July 26 (Special).—It it doubtful if any body of youths ever were the reciplents of such thorough and scientific physical and athletic train- ing as that which is now being given to the 200 midshipmen who compose the new class at the Naval Academy. The system under normal conditions is as complete and efficacious as could be designed, but the midshipmen of the present class are getting an in- tensive training due to the fact that an organization formed to care for a regular class, about 800, 1is being concentrated on one-fourth of that number. The new class is the smallest in years, due to the cutting down of the number of appointments. The system of physical training stresses the general development of all the midshipmen and special train- ing where necessary rather than the development of a few athletes. Immediately upon entering academy the midshipman is g complete strength test, by which the capabilit of each muscle or set of muscles is shown, and, if any are below standard, special ~exercises— participation in certain sports being sufficient in some cases—in order to correct the shortcoming. An_extremely Interesting phase of the physical training introduced this year by Commander Byron McCand- less, athletic director, and his_assist- ant, Lieut. Leonard P. Wessell, con- sists of taking photostats of each new midshipman in order to detect defects in_posture. Naturally youths training for the naval servico must be good swim- mers and_each new midshipman _is required to keep himeelf afloat for five minutes, using any kind of stroke, before he is relieved from | the ‘first special course. ~Some time | during the summer he must be able | to swim 320 feet in four and a half minutes and exhibit his ability to use four different swimming strokes. The academy has developed a unique system of athletic instruction by which each midshipman is trained in every usual branch of athletics, so that he would be a capable instrudtor or manager if needed on shipboard or at a station. Many institutions, including the Military Academy, have practically adopted this system. The members of the new class &re now engaged in most of these lines, including base ball, track, rowing, boxing, wrestling, swimming _and fencing, and the list will be lengthen- ed as the summer progresses. In or- der to increase interest the class has been divided into four platoons: and a general athletic competition ar- ranged, the members of the winning platoon being accorded certain spe- clal privileges. 2 TIP FOR FISHERMEN.

BRITONS PICK TEAM FOR POLO MATCHES By the Associated Prees LONDON, July 26.—Subject to pos- sible revision after arrival in the United States, the following British team has been chosen to play in the international polo matches with the ‘nited States at Meadowbrook in ptember Maj. T. W. Kirkwood or Lieut. Col T. P. Melville, - No. G. H. Phipps-Horneby, "N Maj. F. B Hurndall, No. 3; Luis Lacey, back. Maj. E. G. Atkinson will be held in erve for No. 2 or No. 3, and Maj. Vivian Lockett will share at back. Eight of the 46 ponies which the English team will use at Meadow- brook, and which left London yes- terday for the United States on’ the steamer Minnetonka, belong to the Prince of Wale: MILBURN TO CAPTAIN AMERICAN POLO TEAM YORK, July 26.—Devereux irn has been officially appointed captain of the American polo team ch will defend the international cnallenge cup against Great Britain in September. Milburn_is America's oldest polo veteran. He played in his first inter- rational match 15 years ago and was a member of the successful defending fours of 1911, 1913 and 1921 PIRATES HAVE STAR HURLER IN RECRUIT BY JOHN B. FOSTER. Yde of Pittsburgh—pronounced “Edie”—has the best record to date of any first-year pitcher in the Na- tional League, and he has a good chance to top all the pitchers on the season. He has six victorles and no defeats to his credit, and he, has pitched five complete games. Yde is not an easy man to hit. He is a “southpaw” and promises to be the most desirable left-hander on the o0ld circuit at the end of the season, surpassing even his teammate, Coop- er; Bentley of the Giants and Reuther of Brooklyn. In addition fo being a good pitcher Yde is also quite a pinch-hitter. When he played with OKlahoma City, in 1923, it was customary to put him up to the plate in a pinch, and it was customary for him te hit the ball. His record as a pitcher was 28 games won and 12 lost, with a percentage of .700, but he was second to Maun, the league leader, who is now with the Gfants, who won 26 and lost 11 Yde has come along faster this year than Maun, largely because McGraw has permjtted the latter to take his time to bécome accustomed to his new surroundings: If Yde can finish this season with about 12 victories to his credit, a mark for which he is headed with little trouble, he will relieve some of the apprehension of Dreyfuss about a left-hander for 1925, but he will not win sthe championship for the Pitts- burgh club next year. Pittsburgh must have some kind of policy that is a little more insistent than that which has marked the progress of the team this year before it can achieve the heights of fame. But, in any event, whether Yde suc- cecds in leading the National League pitchers or not this season, it is prac- tically certain that he will succeed Ccoper as the star southpaw of the Pittsburgh club.

Although Connich of the Midgets was nicked for one lone safety by the Apache Midgets, h nine was defeated, 5 to 4. Gaum « the victors victfmized 20 batters via the strike-out route. Both the Smithfields and _the Apaches are sceking games. Chal- lenges to the former should be sent to Manager Rose at 905 Fifth strect, while the Apaches are booking games through their pilot at 917 Eleventh street southeast. Oriole Herzl nine hopes to take the meas- ure of the Fairfax Athletic Club to- day at 11 o'clock on diamond No. 3 of the Monument grounds. Sandlot fans of Petworth are ex- pected to turn out for the Handley Athletic Club-Waverly game today at 2:30 o'clock on the former's field Mattingly or Reid will hurl for Handley. Thistle Athletic Clab took the measure in a keenly contested & to 7 engagement Neal of the losers, and Johnson, ~ Witherite, Pulaski and Ferguson of the Thistles batted creditably. Freight tossers ran roughshod over the Passenger nine, winning 20 to 7. in the Transportation series of the General Accounting Office.. A barrage of 17 wallops, with Murch and Neid- feldt leading the attack, proved too much for the Passenger team. Effective hurling by Trewolla of the Pathfinder Athletic Club enabled his team to down the Good Hope nine, 14 to 6. McCathran of the losers garnered four blows in as many times at bat. Eastern Athletic Association Juni- ors will play host to the Trojans to- day at 1 o'clock on the grounds at Fifteenth and C streets northeast. ENDURANCE GOLF FEAT CREDITED TO IRISHMAN By the Associated Press. DUBLIN, July 26.—P. K. Love of the Milltown, County Dublin, Golf Club recently accomplished a feat un- precedented in Irish golf. For a wager he played from 4:30 in the morning until’ §:30 in the evening, with intervals for breakfast, lunch and tea He had wagered that he would play six rounds of the Milltown links in 100 strokes a round. He succeeded with 43 strokes to spare. TYPOS GOING TO CHICAGO TO “DEFEND” THEIR TITLE A Base Ball League. N ambition to snare more diamond laurels will send the local Typos to Chicago next Friday to defend the title they won last year in the 14th annual tournament of the Union Printers’ International According to present plans, the Capitalites will tackle the formidable Chicago nine in one of the opening games. There is every indication that the Washington printers will give a good account of them- selves, judging by the brand of ball they have produced in the Depart- mental and Potomac Leagues. A tough job awaits the Typos, how- ever, for they will be matched nst stronger teams this 3 ear. Garry Herrmann trophy, which was won by the local nine last year, will be at stake. Several of the most talented to ers in local sandlot competition will compose the Printers' combination. Webb, Hutchinson, Pound and Simons, the T¥po flingers, are expected <o A6 their share. Desper, Lemeric and Ford also are being counted upon to produce the nec ary punch. Others to ma the trip are War- ren, Suess, Hancack, Hood, Feldman and lowrie, The Typos' record in sandlot circles has b sensational this ason. Up to yesterday the nine boasted of four straight wins in the Potomac circuit. It also will play in the Chicago tourney with the De- partmental League title tucked away. Mount Rainier Midgets have been suspended from Section B of the W. B. B. A. A. series because they are re- ported to have used ineligible play- ers. Mount Rainier Juniors have been setting a_merry pace in sandlot cir- cles this year. Bud Bellman, E. Bau- man. Zinnamon, Smith, Green, W. Middleton, J. Middleton, Geety, Wal- ter, Deck, Dbn Bellman, Frank Bau- man, Mosedale and Myers have been displaying their wares to good effect. Pilots of the junior teams in the Washington Base Ball and Athletic Association are to meet tomorrow night at 8 o'clock at the Boys' Club, 3d and C streets. Darr, Richardson, Edelin. Fowler and Walker have been added to the ranks of the Piince Georges Athletic Assoclation of the Washington-Mary- land League. Shamrock Semiorw, Ariels, Knicker- bocker Seniors, Ballston Seniors and the Clark Seniors are expected to compete in the senior league that is being organized. Dreadnaughts of Alexandria will entertain the Pepsi-Cola nine today at 3 o'clock. When they last met, the Pepsi-Cola team won, & to 3. Bureau of Fngraving tossers are scheduled to oppose the O'Donnell's nine today at 3 o'clock on the Rose- dale diamond. Heas Athletic Club will strive to mow down the Columbia Juniors to- day at 12:30 o'clock on_the diamond at North Alfred and King streets, Alexandria, Va. Hess tossers are tg report at i1 o'clock at 921 G street southeast. Games with the Warwicks, Elliotts and Clovers are wanted by the Hess team, according to the man- ager at Lincoin 2508. BOXING SHOW WILL AID BASE BALL ASSOCIATION B Several well known boxers im this section have agreed to put on a show Wednesday, August 6, in the riding academy at Fort Myer. If the show fails to produce the necessary OTHERED considerably by financial troubles, the Washjngton Base Ball and Athletic Association believes it has found a way to re- plenish its coffers and pay its bills. coin, the local association will be in dire straits and face a possible disorganization. The Washington Base Ball Associa~ tion owes nearly seven hundred dol- lars to umpires, as well as having other obligations, Matters look rather black for the association, but the officials of that body believe that the big flock of sandiot fans here will succor the cause by turning out in droves to the boxing show. The Washington associition offi- cials see no reason why they cannot attract a crowd at Fort Myer. Espe- cially when the admission price Wed- nesday a week will range from one to two dollars. The show should be & corker. Bobby Marriott, Army middleweight champion, is matched with Al Ward of Fort Myer in the feature event, while Bobby Garcia will tackle Leslie and Dencio will engage Irish Johnny Fagin. In_other bouts Burnbrook will tackle Tex Stovall, while Rivers will ‘meet Lawrence. Officials in charge of the affair hope to obtain an_opponent for Young Cafoni. The Washington Base Ball and Athletic Association attempted to clean its finanoial slate several weeks ago by staging a field day. Tickets were distributed to the various teams, but apparently little effort was made to dispose of them. To make matters worse, it rained that day. Local sandlot base bail will suffer if the Washington Base Ball and Athletio Association goes under. This year ig the first,time that the District amateur pastime has been organized. 112 HORSES ARE NAMED TO RACE WITH EPINARD NEW YORK, July 26—A total of 112 entries has been received for the series of three international races in which Epinard will meet the elite of Ameriean thoroughbreds this Fall.
