Iowa, March 2.—The ‘“he- man” school of America is the agricul- ture college, in the opinion of Knute Rockne, who took the opportunity to rap the “Hollywood athletes,” who, he said, are becoming numerous in East- ern colleges. He was addressing the Iowa State College. “These mezzanine floor hurdlers,” said the Notre Dame foot ball coach, “infest hotel lobbies. They are soft and perfumed and boast raccoon coats and enlarged hip pockets. They don't exercise, for to perspire is vulgar. They at night they become very active. “If T had my way, I'd take a boy like that and make him a fullback. Then I would have the quarterback call his signal right over the center where opposition is generally more stub- born. He might not choose to run, | but I don’t see how he could help it— | and contact would do him good.” Rockne expressed the opinion that leaders of 20 years from now all would | come from agricultural communities, | "taecnuse virility of city men is deterior- ating.” ONE U.

WOMEN S BOWLING BOARD TO DRAFT CONSTITUTION Tech High School has organized a OMAN bowlers hoping to es- tablish the controlling or- ganization of their —sport here on a firm basls are planning a busy session for tomorrow night at the Arcadia. A rep- resentative from each of the 17 leagues prominent on city drives has been asked to join with the officers recently elected at tomorrow's meeting and it 13 expect- ed an association constitution will be whipped into shape, even though noth- ing clse may be accomplished at the time. Reports from various leagues indicate that the representatives will go into the session tomorrow with open minds and that all will be working for the general advancement of bowling by women in the District instead of engaging in petty politics which in years past has hinder- ed the development of their organiza- tion. In the board of officers, four of the city's largest leagues are represented. The president, Rose Mulroe, belongs to the sizeable Bublic Debt circuit; Edna Ragan, voted into the vice presidency as a member of the big Federal League. also belongs to the Washington Ladies TLeague and the Agricultural Economics Ladies League: Lorraine Gulli, secretary, is of the Washington Ladies Leaguc, while Leda Amidon, treasurer, although officially from the Veterans Bureau cir- cult, is so far as the board of officers is concerned, also is a member of the strong Ladies District League. The officers hope to have present at tomorrow night's session delegates from all of the women's bowling leagues of the city. Invitations to send represent- atives have been extended to the Inter- hal Revenue, Federal, St. Stephen's Club, Daughters of Rebekah, Ladies District, Public Debt, Eastern Star, Lutheran Ladies, Veterans’ Bureau, Bu- reau of Mines, Marine Corps, Southern Railway Ladies, Ladles’ Aviation, Chesa- peake & Potomac Telephone Co., Wash- ington Ladies, Agricultural Economics Ladies and Baptist Young People’s Union circuits, but delegates from other leagues not mentioned above will be cor- dially welcomed. Meyer Davis girls the Ladies’ Dis- trict League were beaten by 27 pins last night in Baltimore in a three-game set with the Bowling Center stars. The score against the Washington outfit was 1,368 to 1,341. Louise Foberti of Meyer Davis, with 128 in her first effort, rolled the high game of the match. However, it was the only count of the century class made by a Washington bowler. Devitt School bowlers are scheduled for two matches today. This afternoon they were to tackle the Central High School team on the King Pin drives and tonight the Hyattsville Juniors are to be encountered at Convention Hall. LOOK!
