THOMPSON DOWNS VIRGINIA CHAMPION Kirchner §hy Opposition at Barcroft, but Finds Too Much Elsewhere. NY pitcher who takes the measure of George C. Thompson of Falls Church in the Metropolitan District horseshoe championships opering July 16, probably will need slip on a ringer with every other toss, if not do even better. Anyway, that’s the latest from Falls Church, whetre Thompson not only has been cleaning up the best in his bailiwick, but a num- ber of visiting tossers. Among his recent victims was none other than the northern Virginia cham- peen, Alexander Kirchner of Barcroft. hner was unable to find worthy competition at Barcroft and, like an- other Alexander, went far afleld for trouble. He found it at Falls Church when' he encountered George Thomp- son. All George did was win six out of seven games and Alec trekked back to Barcroft doubting the security of his Virginia crown. champion caught Thompson at his hottest and with his awn game not quite up to snuff. Even so, the decisive victory marked the Falls Church man as a formidable candidate for the Metropolitan title. He has been playing better than Millard Peake did last year to lift the big crown. S¢T)ON'T take Kirchner's defeat too serfously,” laughed Thompson, because that boy is plenty good when his game is right. Neither I nor any other pitcher figures to beat him that badly often. It wouldn't be sur- prising if he reversed things the next tme we met.” 'ALLS CHURCH has at least four pitchers to consider when. doping winners of high honors in the Metropolitan tournament. Besides Thompson there are H. E. Darnes and his brother Sam, and the colorful Ed Henry. You might add to that list the Falls Church chairman, Enzer L. Bran- don. It's almost a cinch that one of these will win the Falls Church tournament but the run of pitchers out there are urged not to pass up the event because of the others’ pronounced supremacy. After all, the main purpose of the tournament is to afford an opportunity for everybody to enjoy a clean, interest- ing sport and it's a lot more sport put- ting up a battle against a star than it is to knock off an easy vistim. Thet goes for any game. IOMAS J. CRACK, the Ballston chairman, looks for Glenn Talbott to go far in the tournament, and some of the Ballston pitchers are tout- ing him as champion. Talbott reached the North- ern Virginia finals in °29, but was sadly off form at Culpeper. The Ballstonians hold that Glenn is a far better pitcher than generally rated. ANY pitchers have discarded the old-fashioned grip with the fore- finger hooked around a heel and are developing one of the controlled turns, Considerable practice is neces- sary for most to gain even fair success with a controlled turn. To keep a shoe from wobbling and to make it fall flat after a full, half or three quarter turn is almost an athletic art. “It takes three years to make 2 horse- shoe pitcher,” is an axiom of the game. A snap of the wrist is used to give the shoe a balanced flight. Much less effort is required to toss one of the turns than to use the crooked fore-finger grip. With the latter hold the shoe is ced and tiring to the fingers, wrist and forearm. Entry blanks and rule booklets are available at all Washington playgrounds now open. July 1 will be opening day for many of the grounds. Directors arc competing for the dis- fifimn of holding the biggest pre- Here’s an odd rule: The pitcher who scores a point has first toss in the next inning, but if there’s a tie the player who failed to score in the previous inning pitches first.
