GRUBB SETS PACE GETTING ENTRES Pinch Chairman Organizes Big Event Overnight. Greene Young Champ. B % sports promoter of parts. At a time when Brooke was up to his neck in base ball he was called upon to save the horse- shoe pitching situation at Silver Spring. It appeared that Silver Spring’s section of the Metropoli- tan District championships would fall through for the want of somebody to take charge. ROOKE GRUBB, who pilots the Silver Spring Giants, is ‘If you want a sports job done in| Silver Spring,” suggested Francis Stan, e Star's sandlot editor, “get Brooke ubb.” Which was done forthwith, d Grubb established something of & record for Metropolitan ~hort chairmen by lining up practically over- night a tournament wit] approximately 100 entries. It started last night. ‘With two courts in operation, in the center of town, 11 matches were run off and horseshoe pitching fever was high. Grubb used his own methods of running a tournament. Instead of having a set schedule he made one as he went, matching players as they showed up. This he will continue to do throughout the first round, entries for which are still open. Grubb probably ‘won't close the lists until after tonight. He has until August 14 to complete his tournament, that date having been set for the Montgomery County play- offs at Laytonsville, where the horse- shoe pitchers will take part in the giant annual picnic of the Modern Woodmen. Charley Walson, the bowling star, ‘was one of those who fell by the way- . He was defeated by John Schrider, 51 to 17. In other matches L. Padgett defeated G. Brandt, 52-36; O. Peters defeated D.

Hopping, who vanquished a large fleld last year, being absent on a political campaign in Michigan with Representative McLeod. “Sorry I can't be there” Hopping ‘writes, “and here’s hoping Silver 8] produces a pitcher to give Peake, and the otherr a battle for the Mont~ gomery title!” ATTSVILLE'S tournament is well into the second round. Only one match was played last night, Rolph Jarrell defeating A. Eugene Bur- gess, 21-16, 16-21, 21-10. ‘Tonight J. A. Leverette will meet L. Smith and Bob James will take on Brewer. Jarrell is the one pitcher in the Hyattsville tournament feared by the champion, Merle Hellmann. This comes from Heilmann.
