Despite the cold weather, the game yesterday was fast, with Chevy Chase assuming an ecarly lead that was not overcome at any stage. Florence Grady, captaining the winners, caged a fleld goal in the first quarter, as did Betty Hartman. The score stood 4-0 when this period closed. Garfield scored all three of its points in the second period. Dorothy Kelso registered one basket and two shots from the foul line. Miss Hartman collected five additional points for the winners in the second half. Ione Hoffman played a beautiful de- fense game for Garfleld at center and when her team had the ball was on the aggressive. Vivian Essex and Helen Bittenger, who alternated at side cen- ter for Chevy Chase, both exhibited alert passwork and co-operated consist- ently with their forwards, who had to do their shooting under difficult con- ditions because of the efficient guard- ing by Zelda Madeoy and Elizabeth O'Rourke.

Holton Arms Blues chalked up the first points of the season in the Blus | and White athletic competition for the school trophy yesterday when their hockey squad scored over the White eleven,' 4 to 0, on the Ellipse Field. Whites have won the trophy during the past three years and the Blues are determined to give them a hard battle for it this year. The hockey game yesterday was the first of a series of competitive meets between the two sides into which the entire student body is divided for their' intramural sport program. Next week end is designated as “Athletic week end” at the school and a varied card of activities is being planned by Laura Steenstrup, physical education director. Christine Ekengren accounted for 3 of the goals registered by the winners. Betty Peelle also scored. Four of th> five goals were made in the opening period. In the second half the Whites rallied and kept the ball down in Blue territory the majority of the time. WITH THE DISTRICT LEAGUE. Team Standing.

Denham Co. into a_fine position to give the leading clubs, King Pin and Meyer Davis, a real battle for the leadership of the National Capital circuit. Meeting the strong Parkway Filling Station club, Denham'’s team was not daunted by the 600 game it opened with, but came back to take the next two, the match and undisputed posses- sion of third place. King Pin and Meyer Davis are still tied for the lead, a half game in front, as both idled due to postponements. Thorpe and Mandley bettered the 350 mark for Denham while Frank Miller’s hook ball bettered that figure for the losing quintet. New England Cafe evened the count with Service Cafeteria for the season by taking two of the three games. In the first session some weeks back Serv- ice won two games. No real high scores were rolled by the victors, but consistent bowling prevailed throughout the match. On the other hand, Service had but two capable bowlers in Mulroe with 339 and Work with 334. Chevy Chase added its second win of the campaign, F. H. Smith Co. again being its victim, when it won the final game with a 512 score. Kessler, a newcomer to Chevy Chase, rolled 335, while Pearce toppled 333 for the losers of the single game. Linwoods took two from People’s Life Insurance.

Q. 2y Captains have been elected for the Western High School basket ball teams and regular practice begun in prepa- ration for the interclass games to be played after the first of the year. Jeanne Kelly will lead the freshmen, Mary Lee Watkins the sophomores, Catherine Crane the juniors and Henri- etta Hobson the seniors. Monday has been set as the day for the freshmen and juniors to practice and Wednesday for the sophomores and seniors. addition, inexperienced freshmen and sophomores still are being. drilled in classes during the week. All of regular practice periods are after school hours, however, and such tremendous enthusiasm has been shown by the girls in turning out for basket ball this year that these after-school drills have ex- tended until 5 and 5:30 o'clock, in- stead of being halted at 4:30 as was planned originally. Even with this extra time allowed, sometimes many of the girls get no more than 10 min- utes play, according to the directors, Belle Meyers and Mrs. Annie Trenis. All juniors and seniors, both expe- rienced and inexperienced, are prac- ticing with the regular squads after school now, but only those inexperienced freshmen and sophomores are permitted to report who show special merit in their class work. as the number of re- cruits is too great to allow them all to come after school. Any girl who has a failure in any subject at the end of the quarter will be dropped from her team, according to Miss Meyers. This is a more strict ruling than any in the past, but is necessitated this yar by the large number of players trying out for teams. More than 250 girls have been out for the four class squads. Much good ma- terial has been discovered in the sopho- more ranks, as well as among the juniors and seniors. It is too early yet to predict concerning the freshmen. Senjors are handicapped by the loss of a number of their former stars, who have gone to other cities or have had so much time taken up with senior activities that they have been unable to report for practice.

Hall of Centennial rolled a 130 game and a 359 set for the losers while Marlow’s 339 set was the best for the victors Ninth No. 1, assuming the lead in the race by reason of th2 greatest number of pins, won two from the Second Baptist Mission. Douglas No. 1 unloosed a powerful attack in winning three from Centen- nial No. 2 and s°t up a new record of 588 for high team game and also a new one for team set, spilling the maples for 1678. Appel's 351 was high for the Douglas team with French getting 344. Irigram won two from Keller in spite of the fact that Harry Mertz of the latter team shot 370 for the highest set of the week. Joe Motyka of Ingram kept his team in the van with a 144 game and 346 set. Stork of Gorsuch shooting 145 for the highest game of the week and getting 348 for the set was the main reason why his team took a couple from Fifth Baptist. Douglas No. 2 took the Ingram No. 2 boys into camp for three games with M. Snell- ings of the victors shooting a nice 144 game. Frey's set of 340 was the best in the contest in which his team, Ep- worth, won two from Second Baptist and Ralph Cadv on Ninth No. 2 shot a 130 game in helping his team win two from First Brethren.

ALTER Johnson, the great- est pitcher baseball ever has seen, as manager of the N tionals must become a mak- er of pm:hi'rls when“ gz charges gather at training camp clubgles u‘: make a good getaway in the American League’s 1929 championship race. Although the Washington or- ganization now has in reserve 14 hurl- ers, only four of them have performed well enough to loom as dependables and in gege );d:!ys m:‘ slam 1 a clul g:ur good pitchers if it would get any- t at present writing th of the Nationals the yeu;}}rmdl Irving Hadley, the still young e M-rbgrry. the game Garland Braxton and the aged but supple Sam Jones. Hadley, now fully recovered from the effects on an operation for appen- dicities that handicapped him to a great extent the past season, see&s likely to have his best year yet in the big show. Marberry and Braxton, pro- moted from relief to starting hurlers last Summer, performed impressively enough to indicate they may be (!ulhe valuable to have around next year. And Jones, though he is growing no younger, 1s one of those loose-jointed athletes capable of giving Father Time eat battle. & 5‘\’1! after these four, what? Well, these: Milton Gaston, Lloyd Brown, Bob Burke, Jim Weaver and Horace Lisenbee, who were with the club_the past season, and the newcomers, Paul McCullough, Adolph Liska, Guy Cant- rell, Paul Hopkins and Archie Camp- bell, Looks as though Johnson will have to work hard to get something from this lot. Looks to Liska, McCuflcugh. Right now, the n:w manager of ths Nationals is banking heavily upon Liska and McCullough coming through. These two fellows pitched good ball for Minneapolis of the American Associa- tion last season. Liska especially was a star in the circuit and according to those who saw him toil he has the stuff to make him a real big leaguer. And those who have seen McCullough per- form declare him to be fully as good as Liska, although McCullough was licked in a lot of close ball games in the association last season. ‘Undoubtedly, Johnson will devofe a deal of time to the grooming of these two association graduates when his forces gather at training camp. It is felt that the Washington hurling will not be so good unless these recruits make good, even though no one at the club headquarters will admit it. Con- sideration of what the others have done thus far in pitching way, however, makes the task ahead of Johnson look anything but easy. Gaston and Lisenbee were great dis- appointments last year. So were Brown and Burke. And the same goes for Hopkins, who failed to shine after be- ing farmed to Montreal. This crew will have to toil manfully if it is to make the grade and it will need much coaching, too. Cantrell, bought from Baliimore, is an unknown quantity and 50 is Campbell, drafted from St. Paul. Campbell had a brief trial with the Yankees last year and didn’t shine. Nor was Weaver particularly impressive in a Washington uniform last season. Any way one looks at it, Johnson seems in for a hard job when he starts the mak- ing of a mound staff for his club. Tampa again will be the Nationals' training camp, all differences between the big leaguers and the Tampa club having been composed yesterday in a conference between President Clark Criffith and J. L. Cone, part owner of «hz Krewe. The battle over Sunday base ball that caused Griffith to threaten to abandon Tampa as the Nationals’' iraining base ended when an agree- 7|mont was reached under which both cams will train in the town on the lorida Wesi Coast and the Tampans may play other clubs at Plant Field when the Nationals are out of town. Tiae Krewe also was given four ex- The clubs will meet on March 10 in the first Sunday game at Tampa, splitiing <he receipts. Games also will be played on April 1, 2 and 3 with all receipts going into the Tampa club’s treasury. Bob Reeves isn't working this Win- ter under orders from President Grif- fith. The National's young infielder lost a deal of weight and expended much nervous energy last season when playing a short left fleld and short- stop at the same time and the Wash- ington prexy decided Bob needed a thorough rest between seasons. So a few veeks ago, Reeves returned to his Tennessee home to idle until train- ing camp cpens. Griffith leaves tomorrow for Chicag: to attend the annual business meeting of the American League that begins Tuesday and the joint session of the major leagues with Commissioner Landis scheduled for Thursday. It has not yet been decided whether Manager Johnson will accompany the club presi- dent, but Secretary Ed Eynon probably will make the trip. During the Chicago stay there is a possibility that the negotiations for a trade that would bring back Buddy Myer from the Red Sox may be re- opened. The Red Sox flatly refused Griffith's offer of five players for Myer made last week at Toronto, but John- son is rather eager to get the hard- hitting infielder so Griffith in all like- lihood will endeavor to talk the Boston bunch into the deal. There’s an athletic field in Humbold!, Kas.. called Walter Johnson Field and fhe Washington manager well remem- bers the part he played in the dedica- tion of the sports grounds in the town of his birth. The opening contest brought together two hi school foot ball teams and Walter was asked to kick-off for one of them. As a foot ball plaver, Walter was a great, pitcher. They still point to the hole in th~ ground dug bv Johnson's foot when i’ missed the ball.
