David Fagerland of the Finnish-American Athletic Club of New York was third, a couple of hundred yards in the wake of Michelson. Fa- gerland was well ahead of Errol Vaughn of Good Shepherd A. C. of Philadelphia, who finished fourth. There were 38 starters, 31 of whom finished. Millrose A.

Bob Rokower, of the District Knights ot Columbus, who was twenty-first, the | first Washington runner to finish, was awarded a trophy. Right behind Ro- | kower came Haskell Clarke and the vet- eran Mike Lynch, also representing the K. of C. It was no novelty for fans to see Agee ‘win yesterday. He has a string of con- quests in long races. hereabout to his credit. It is doubtful, though, if the Baltimore husky ever showed to better lvantage here. For the first eight les, except for the opening lap around the Ellipse, when Michelson showed the way, Agee and Gus Moore, colored crack of the Brooklyn Harrlers and Univer- sity of Pittsburgh, raced side by side. Entering the road encircling the polo fleld, however, Moore pulled up with an injured toe. For a time he grimly bung on, but soon was forced to retire. stantial lead. Michelson for a time appeared to be gaining somewhat on Agee, but the latter soon threw off the challenge and swept ahead to his easy victory. The Emorywood boy appeared to gain strength as the race neared its &01‘;5 as was attested by his spirited While Agee and Moore were staging their grueling duel they exhibited spirited sportsmanship by frequently ex- changing water and towels passed to them by followers in automobiles, Gets Four Awards. Michelson was off in the lead at the start of the race, but Moore moved to §hie front in the second lap around the lipse, with Agee taking second. Then Agee and Moore waged their thriliing fight, which culminated in the latter falling by the wayside after 8 miles. Agee won two trophies and two med- als. He was awarded the National A. A. U.

The Listening Post, BY WALTES TRUMBULL, Sport is winning, if win you can, And keep to the sportsman’s code. Sport is beating the other man, But giving him half the road; Being content with an even break, Scorning the trickster’s art. | Sport is the game for the game's own sake, And the love of a fighting heart, Sport is by no means the biggest thing, or the most important thing in life; but, in its own fashion, it fur- nishes a pretty good measure of a man. When you play with a man or against him, watch him under stress, see him in victory or defeat, measure his speed and { brain"and heart on diamond, field or track, you have a pretty good idea of | his character and his capabilities.

By the Associated Press. 8 one of the three American members of the International Olympics committee, Ernest Lee Jahncke, Assistant Secre- tary of the Navy, objects to the sanc- tion of strenuous athletic contests for ‘women. Jahncke yesterday said he had written to Charles H. Sherrill, senior American committee member, indorsing the atti- tude of the woman's division of the National Amateur Athletic Federation of America. ‘The federation, Jahncke wrote, op- posed the participation of girls and ‘women in Olympic games or in activities carried on in conjunction with or simul- taneously with the Olympic games, The 1932 Olympic contests are to be held on the Pacific Coast. “Women are not fitted structurally for the more violent sports such as dashes, hurdling, high jumping and many fleld events,” Jahncke said. “They can play tennis and swim and parti- cipate in easier sports. “I think there is nothing more de- grading than the sight of a man dictat- ing to his wife and telling her how much she may spend for this and that. But I also think that while we admit that women are our intellectual equals ‘we should attempt to keep them from | taking part in violent sports, for such participation will unfit them for their primary purpose in life—reproduction. “A woman cannot stand the more strenuous athletic competitions. 1 think they should not be encouraged or permitted to take part in them.” Jahncke said he understood women's contests for the 1§32 Olympics had been approved at a recent meeting in | Berlin, LAUREL, Md, June 7.—All txc!ptl‘ 2 of the 14 players on the Laurel High School base ball team of the past sea- son are slated to graduate this month. They are Robert Rorabaugh, pitcher and infielder, and Everett Phelps, sec- ond baseman. ‘Those scheduled to graduate include Edward Hatch, pitcher, and Harry Brady, pitcher and infielder; Matthew Cunningham, catcher; Morton Phelps, jr., first baseman; Warren Marton and Norman _Pfeiffer, third basemen, and Joseph Harrison, Thomas Pisher, Ed- win Nelson, Ellery Milbrook, Paul Knight and Harry Knight, outfielders. il PS5 START FEBRUARY 4 By the Associated Pr STOCKHOLM, Sweden, June 7.—Dr. Godfrey Dewey, chief manager of the Olympic Winter games at Lake Placid, N.'Y. in 1932, has announced that at | the request of European representatives | the competition will open February 4 in- | stead of January 28.

Acorn trophy, a cov- eted award among senior ath- letes of Central High School, it was announced last night. The trophy is awarded annually to & mem- ber of the June graduating class, and becomes the permanent ion of the recipient. It is 20 inches high and 11 inches wide at its widest point. Purpose of the award, it was ex- plained by Acorn, a former Central athlete, is to stimulate Central boys to strive for the highest in athletics. However, athletic ability while impor- tant is not all-inclusive, character, sportsmanship, and loyaity being given appropriate weight. Prior to the decision to award the trophy to Brandt, teachers, quite & few students and newspaper men who cover high school sports activities were in- terviewed, and a vote favoring Brandt as the recipient was cast by the un- dergraduate “C” Club. Brandt has won nine letters at Cen- tral, a truly exceptional record. He was awarded the insignia in foot ball in 1927, 1928 and 1929, in base ball for the season just passed and in 1929 and 1928, in track this Spring and last year, and in basket ball the past Winter. He was all-high end on the foot ball team and was the best man in the Central line, in the opinion of Acorn. He would have pitched for the ball team this Spring, but an arm injury suffered during the past foot ball cam- paign forced him to be content with holding down third base. Brandt was captain of both the foot ball and base ball teams during the school year now closing, during which he won letters in foot ball, basket ball, base ball and track. In other student activities Brandt also was prominent. He was president of the undergraduate “C” Club and a member of the student council. He is a member of Sigma Delta Fraternity. Along By Carrol HE new planet has been named Pluto. Though we are still in the dark (as is the planet) as to just what sort of folk in- habit it, if any, we feel that surely they are a backward people, having permitted themselves to be hidden so long. But now that it has been given & name and is familiar to the postal authorities, we feel that we really should write them a letter setting forth the way things are run in this, our up-to-date and enlightened civilization. Carry on with the white man’s burden, as it were. So here goes. * oK Kk Dear Plutarians: We hope you will excuse our writ- ing you without an accompanying let- ter of introduction, but realizing the plight you must be in we cannot help ourselves. Now we realize, too, that all of your wants must surely have been attended to by our radio adver- tisers—what kind of toilet soap to use, the correct variety of tooth paste, the best coal to burn, how to make earthly fruit cake and a toss-together salad— as we said, we realize that all of your wants have been attended to by the radio with the exception of one thing, and that is, “how a real modern earthly water front looks and feels.” 8o don't mind our writing, please!l * k% % IRST, the water front is that por- tion of the city nearest the river, immediately adjacent thereto, we might | say. You get the idea we hope. Now follow closely if you wish to copy or use for a model the water front of the City of Bureaus. To begin with, the water must be dirty. The dirtier the better. If the water isn't dirty, it is suggested that a sultable amount of sewage, oil, rub- bish and debris be dumped into it daily. Be sure to use pleaty of the first two named. ‘This accomplished, build docks of the most inefficient pattern along the waterside and then partially wreck them with dynamite or some suitable explosive. In this manner you save nature years of labor. Permit the scraps to float about the harbor, Now, lease these areas on very short term leases—say 30 days—so that the lessees will not feel inclined to spend any coin of the realm on improve- ment, and be sure to charge them plenty, for these properties are val- uable, By placing white buoys closely to- gether restrict what will be called the “anchorage” so that the boatiacs, as we call them, will be compelled of necessity to violate laws that you will make and thus a profitable source of revenue will be created to say nothing of the feeling of good will and respeét for the Government that will ensue. Create a park commission, & water- front board, a director of something-or- other and have them collaborate on “planning,” but never permit the plans to bear fruit. Just have them draw pretty pictures of what might be some | time to placate these aforementioned | boatiacs, and in time they all will lose hope, and the commission may turn | their attentions to perfecting _their | swing at golf and catching up a few hours’ sleep. You follow us, we hope? | Just change plans often enough is all we ND, oh, we nearly forgot! Have a speed law. Make it any old fig- ure, the more ridiculous and mefltcllvt‘ the better, about 15 miles per hour is | about right. But by all means don't | restrict the activities of the Govern- | ment or commercial craft operating in your harbor (you may spell it harbour if you wish), for if you do you will spoil many things, the boatman will cease to groan as his boat smashes into the wrecks of wharves, and he may be able to paint up his eraft without being forced to go on cruise in | order to do it. At your conferences bend a deaf ear to the entreaties of those boat own- | ers foolish enough to emit a roar and | give your entire attention to those engaged in selling some kind of boat | or another—from their vantage point | of salesrooms they are much better qualified to express opinions about how things should be run. But at the| same time make it hard for them to | do business, as we said before, make their leases short and be careful thlt‘ their customers have no place in which | to safely keep their boats once they | become boatiacs. | 1t is in keeping with the best earthly | practice to create lovely parks on one side of the waterside and then | have gas works and junk yards on | the other, and if really pressed for | ideas you may park all your confiscated | wrecks of automobiles on what remains of the little available wharfage, if any. An architectual freak morgue will| help matters also, if located over the water, and the use of paint must strictly be among things prohibited on such buildings as do occur nearby. Warn the steamboat companies about this, particularly if you have one run- ning to Baltimore. ~ That old dilapi- dated appearance so much to be de- sired will_soon be acquired In this manner. No paint! OW, if you have followed us care- fully through this epistle we feel jure that you will be able to create a real water front that will be in keeping with the best earthly—may | we say Washington?—standards, and | take your place among the better planets of our universe.

He plans to enter Washington and Lee University next Fall. Summing up his reasons for award- ing the trophy to Brandt, Acorn said: “Brandt has always given the school and his coaches his very best.
