IR ¢ 4ok b o SO ST Hes Cod Task:Ma ryland Pitchersin Finals Tomorrow ONLY ONE REGULAR 15 BACK THIS YEAR Reserves and Freshmen of | + 1929 Provide Some Capa- ble Talent, However. BY H. C. BYRD. OACHES often find them- selves facing a foot ball season with many of the regulars of the previous year gone, but few, indeed, are they who have to tackle what Bill Raftery of Virginia Military Insti- tute is up against at this time. Raftery has his squad working out twice a day, but it is a squad minus 10 of last year’'s 11 regulars. Only one man who helped the 1929 team make such a fine rec- ord is in uniform, and, even if the reserve strength from the previous year is better than the average and even if there4s good material coming up from the freshman outfit, that is not a sit- uation which gives a coach any great feeling of -satisfaction. Pe | 3 narrow escape quall for the fine material that was lost. e, for instance, Al Haw- " kins, quarterback last season. It is not that any other player will be enough to replace him.

There will be only six players, but all of these are title threats. Heading the list will be Millard E. Peake, defending champion and holder | of the metropolitan district title. Per- | haps his most respected rival will be | Walter Kolb, who hails from Pools- ville, but won the Laytonsville pre-| liminary. Ever ‘since Kolb fooled the horseshoe dopesters and gave Peake a wicked| battle for the Montgomery County title he has been priming for the next en- counter with the big Bethesdan. The pair will represent Montgomery County. From Prince Georges County will be Raymond Panholzer of Seat Pleasant and J. Plumer of Mount Rainier., Pan- holzer whipped Plumer in the county final, but Plumer previously had shown his capability by tossing 23 ringers in one game—a game in which he was on/ his mettle from start to finish, for his| nent, Duke Dunnington of Seat| Pleasant, also was on the stake con- sistently. Charles County will send William finals, and we have it from Chairman | Walsh of Indian Head that these two won't be' set-ups. They have thrown many & ringer this Summer and not a | few of them in flocks. However, Welsh predicts no victory for Charles County. “Merely we are stronger this year than last,” is the way he puts it. Play tomorrow night will start at 7:30 o'clock on the courts of the Seat Pleasant Fire Dej ent. Pairings will be drawn just before play time by the horseshoe editor. Peake will be seeded at the top of the draw and Kolb at the bottom, these two on past per- formances outranking the others, Southern Maryland winner and runner-up will represent their State in the metropolitan grand finale, scheduled for next Saturday at 3:30 o'clock on the Plaza Playground, In the meantime Washington neigh- borhood champions and runners-up are finishing divisional play-offs, and on ‘Thursday the survivors will have it out for East and West section honors.

Harry Saunders was the only player to win a:l four games. and Sam Darnes in this respect led the Virginians, his only loss being to Saunders. He was leading Saunders, 43 to 31, when the ‘Washingtonian pulled out of the hole with seven straight ringers. ‘The team match was something of an experiment for this section of the coun- try, and it was so successful that the boys have decided t hold a similar event ever so often and every Sunday of an assurity. Alex Kirchner in a_ desperate effort to stave off defeat for his team threw 30 ringers in the final game, which was ‘with Crane. STAR, -WASHINGTON, though beaten gave up comparatively few points.

Thomas tossed 15 ringers to 8 by Summerville, - A match between Hyson and Brady was & thriller from the start, they stay- ing neck and neck until the score stood 34-all. At this point Brady, the How- ard runner-up, collected 12 points by the ringer route for a substantial lead. It was too much for Hyson.

Capacity Crowd Sees Schwartz And Barry Draw in Good Show) ASHINGTON'S hungry boxing fans want fights. This was indicated by the turnout of more than 3,000 at Fort Washington last night to witness the card sponsored by the Front Line Post, Veterans of Foreign Wars. And if bouts such as those continue to be in order the weekly event promises to be well patronized. ‘The appetites of the local and Alex- andria ring followers, who jammed every inch of space at the outdoor arena, were satisfled, for every one of the half-dozen bouts was crammed with action. “Reds” Barry, 17-year-old local scrapper, wearing the cherry and black of the Mohawk Club, and “Baker Boy" Bill Schwartz of Alexandria battled to a draw in eight rounds of sizzling ac- tion, with both fighters strong despite the pummeling each received. , & red-headed Irishman, con- tinually rushed in wide open, throwing a viclous left to Schwartz's face, but the Alexandria boy had the better of | it in the infighting. After a first round in which neither had any apparent edge, Barry punished the “Baker Boy” in the second and fifth, when he landed a hard right to the button which shook Schwartz, but the latter came back strong in the closing minutes. Judge Mike Raedy voted for Schwartz, Judge Mel Ottenberg's slip read “Barry” and Referee Heinle Miller called it a draw. The semi-final between Eddie Buell, the veteran ringman, and Mike De Anieln. also wearing the colors of the Mohawks, was a hot squabble all the way. Buell, a flashy boxer, came back strongly after a groggy third session to get the decision. | Billy Strickler of Washington scored the only knockout when he flattened Joe Adams of Baltimore in the fifth round, Adams began impressively, swapping punches with the local boy, but a right to the face sent him down for the count. Soldier Clark of Fort Washington, weighing 129 pounds, and George Bahkas, 136, of Washington fought to & snappy draw in the opener. Sammy Kirk of Washington won a_decision over Soldler Bennett of Fort Washing- ton in an extra bout. Young Jack Dempsey of Washing- ton, outweighing his opponent, Soldier Burke of Walter Reed, by 27 pounds, was clearly outclassed by the latter, dropping the decision. Burke sent Dempsey to the canvas | twice in the first round, but lacked the steam for the finishing blow. Matchmaker Goldie Ahearn an- nounces that the larged for next Monday's show, seating at least 1,000 more than last night. Sylvan Bass of Baltimore and Harry “Kid” Grove will share the feature event with the Sailor McKenna-K. O. ! Phil Raymond bout. Both are euht-] rounders. Two sixes and a pair of four- rounders will round out the card. JUNIORS STEP OUT OF CLASS AND WIN Takoma Tigers Defeat Two TUn- limited Teams—Mount Rainiers to Play Southern A. C. “The bigger they come the. harder they fall,” is the motto of the Takoma Tiger Juniors, who yesterday stepped out of their class to take on a pair of unlimited nines, the Dixie Pigs of Vir- ginia and the Majestics, and beat 'em both. The Tigers swamped the Dixies in the first game, 23 to 8, and also exhibited batting punch by downing the Majes- tics, 13 to 9. ‘The Mount Rainier Juniors, who re- cently announced their intentions of try- ing for bigger game, will play host to the Southern A. C. unlimiteds Sunday at 1 o'clock on the Mount Rainier field. ‘The Takoma Tigers, winners of the Montgomery County section of the Cap- ital City League, are to meet this aft- ernoon at 5:30 o'clock on the Silver Spring fleld, where a picture of the team will be taken.
