42 All High Schools Are Planning to Take Part in Rifle Competi NEW GOLF TOURNEY PLAN OFFERED CONGRZSSIONAL * TEAMS ORGANIZED BY BUSINESS TECH Join Weslern, Central and Eastern in Chase for Championship. ITH all schools planning to be represented for the first time in several seasons, the coming public high school championship boys’ rifle contests are arousing a deal of interest. For the past several years Central, Western and Eastern alone have com- peted for the indoor and outdoor titles, Business and Tech not participating because of having no ranges. Business still is without a range, but neverthe- less a team this year which is getting its practice on an improvised range on the ash pits at the school. A range has been provided for at the new Tech building and it is hoped that it will be ready in time for the indoor title matches which will begin early in the néw year. The outdoor contests will follow in the Spring. Last season Wesiern won both the indoor team and individual champion- ships and Central took the outdoor team and individual contests. Central is Practicing. Coached by Sergt. Ollie M. Schriver, candidates for the Central team are practicing regularly and are hopeful of turning out a capable combination. Radue is captain of the Blue and White rangers. Bob Hulburt is captain of the West- ern team, which is drilling Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. rxperienced shots trying for berths on the team, in addition to Hulburt, are Perry Ruth- erford, Walter Glass, Gus Wedderburn and Page Worthington. Others bidding for places are Bob Wilson, Gordon Nichols, James Frazier, Hamilton Wright, William Collins and Jack ‘Thompson. Eastern, which was represented in the series last season but did not fare so well, hopes to turn out an improved team. Thomas Holmes is the faculty adviser for the sport. Should Business develop a good team it will deserve much credit. For sev- eral seasons the Stenogs have wanted to form a team but lack of facilities has prevented. This season it was de- cided to organize a combination anyway and every effort will be made to make it a winner despite the lack of a regu- lar range. A. G. McNish, former mem- ber of the Tech, George Washington and National Capital Rifle Club teams, is faculty adviser for the Stenog rangers and those striving for places on the team include Jacob Chlap, Phillip Tarr, Russell Settle, Robert Anderson, Evarts Hurd, Stanley Payne, Melvin Payne, Hyman Gordon, Dave Wallace, Vincent Sullivan, Paul Wall and Capt. Ralph Smith. At Tech a faculty committee consist- 1ng of Roy Birch, H. L. Benner and Maj Maish have charge of rifie activities. Eastern and Gonzaga will clash to- morrow afternoon at 2 o'clock in the Eastern Stadium in their annual grid me. As both elevens have shown de- cided strength and a lively rivalry exists between them the game is regarded as ons of the most attractive of the scho- lastic season_ here. Gonzaga downed Fastern last Fall, 6 to 0, and the Lin- coln Parkers will be out to even scores. Fastern has won all three of its starts in the public high title series. In fact, Eastern’s lone loss of the campaign was to Emerson in a 7-2 battle. Gon- zaga also has dropped but one encoun- ter, bowing to the strong Catholic Uni- versity Freshmen, 0 to 14. Emerson will travel to York, Pa. to engage the sturdy York High team in the only other game tomorrow in which 2 schoolboy team of the District group will figure. The annual Central-Tech battle in Central Stadium headlined the scholas- tic foot ball card here this sfternoon. Tech was given the edge over the Blue and White, which won last Fall, 12 to 0. Fielding H. (Hurry Up) Yost, Univer- sity of Michigan coach, was to be on the Tech bench today at the invitation of Eimer P. (Hap) Hardell, Tech coach, who formerly attended Michigan. Paul Magoffin, who was to referee the game, lsy is a former Michigan student. Business and St. John's were to meet at the Tidal Basin and St. Alban’s and 8t. Christopher at Richmond in other g:mes today involving Capital school- y elevens. MRS. HUGHES WINNER AT HANDICAP GOLF Pirst-flight honors in the Army, Navy and Marine Corps Country Club handi- cap golf tournament for women yester- day went to Mrs. Everett Hughes and Mrs. J. T. H. O'Rear, both of the Army, who were winner and rynner-up, re- spectively. Mrs. Hughes’ net 40 was low. Mrs. O'Rear finished with a 42. In the second flight Mrs. R. 8. Porter, Army, took top honors with a.net 41. Mrs. L. C. Allen and Mrs. T. Hammond, tied for second place, each with 43. Next Thursday a similar event will be held at the club, which will be open to all service women in Washington. Mrs. J.

The cup will go to the piayer having the lowest net average for a given number of rounds beginning ‘early next season. MAJORS WILL OPEN LATER NEXT SEASON By thgaAssociated Press. NEW YORK, November 9. — Under present plans, the major league base ball campaigns will start later in 1929 than they did this year. John Heydler, president of the Na- tional League, said it was expected to open the season in both leagues on April 16 and close on September 29. The 1928 season opened on April 11 and closed September 29, but weather conditions, especially in the East, can- celed any advantages there might have been in the early opening. R T AMERICAN ASSOCIATION TO MEET AT TORONTO CHICAGO, November 9 (#.—The annual meeting of the American Asso- ciation has been called for December 2 at Toronto by President Thomas J. ey meeting was originally sched- uled for Chicago, but because the minor leagues are meeting in Toronto, De- :ergg the location was shifted. XGLO-CO: SPORTS. BY WALTER R. McCALLUM. NEW idea in the holding of in- vitation golf tournaments is be- fore the members of Congres- sional Country Club today for consideration ‘and presentation to the club board of governors. Guy Mason, chairman of the golf commit- tee, has laid before the membership a plan to hold an open invitation tourna- ment only once every two years. In the odd years, under the Mason plan, Congressional Club will hold an_ invi- tation tournament with a severely re stricted entry list, open only to mem- bers of clubs of the District Golf Asso- ciation with handicaps of 20 and more. Thus Mason is endeavoring to carry out his plan of holding a tournament for duffers and prevent the more or less complete domination of tournament golf and prize winning by a compara- tively small group of leading amateur golfers about Washington. The matter will be acted upon by the board at some time prior to next Spring. Lieut. G. B. Sherwood is the new holder of the Siamese Cup, one of the major trophies in competition each year at Chevy Chase Club. Lieut. Sherwood, who has established himself as one of the leading players of the club in his short stay in Washington, won the com- petition yesterday, defeating E. O. Wag- enhorst in the final round, 2 and 1. The ultimate winner conceded his op- ponent eight strokes and was 1 down at the turn, Sherwood came back in 38, in the face of a high wind, how- ever, to erase Wagenhorst's lead and win the match on the seventeenth. There has been no definite decision, either by the club or by Tommy Armour himself, as to whether the national Barnes Eyes Over Ball While Putting Bo110M OF PUTTER GHOULD LIE FLAT ON GROUND. The bottom of one’s putter should rest flat on the green with its cen- ter -directly back of the center of the ball when your stance is such that your eyes are directly over the ball and the line to the cup. Jim Barnes claims these two points are necessary for any golfer to adhere to if he wishes to become a fine putter. Being tall, Jim crouches well over the ball, 25 many British players do only for short putts, as we will see in tomorrow’s artiele. Jim also ad- vocates pointing the left elbow at e hole, as well as the back of the 18ft hand, so as to make sure the guiding left hand and arm will cause your putter to follow through on iine as_you stroke through the ball. Jim likewise places his right fore- arm lightly on his right thigh in order to prevent his putter straying from the line along which it is to stroke the ball. You'll note that his knees are bent slightly as he strokes the ball. This is to prevent rigidity. One's feet should be placed firmly on the ground, weight balanced be- tween heels and balls. Some ad- vocate the weight more on the left, Others that it should be evenly di- vided. Choose the stance that gives you the most comfort. The comll'non:l |§l|'“ hsnl‘tl fime average golfer icing.

Negotia- tions for a contract for next year still are in progress between the former title-holder and the club, it was of- ficially announced by club officials to- day and a positive announcement that Armour has severed his connection is premature and misleading. Notwith- standing this, however, Tommy is dick- ering with a club in Detroit for a berth next year and an announcement may soon be forthcoming. Congressional of- ficlals do not admit that Armour will not be back in-1929, but take the posi- tion that while negotiations are in rcgrc;s, no definite statement should made. Completing the most successful tour- nament season the Congressional Coun- try Club has ever had, prizes won by the members in various tournaments throughout the season were presented at a dinner held at the club last night. The presentations were made by Guy Mason, chairman of the golf commit- tee, who announced the following list of winners, with the prizes they won: WOMEN'S EVENTS. Club championship.
