CONZAGA, EASTRR " EMBATILED HERE Tech, Western, Georgetown Prep Play Away—Emerson, Devitt Rated No. 1. BY EDWARD A. FULLER, JR. OOT BALL for schoolboy teams of the District area is making its*last stand to- day. Gonzaga and ‘Tech may meet December 5 if details can be arranged, but no other games aside from this are in pros- pect. In contests today Eastern was to entertain Gonzaga in the East- erh Stadium, Tech was at Manas- sas to face Swavely, Western had an engagement with Staunton| Military Academy at Staunton,| Va., and Georgetown Prep was to | try conclusions with Iona Prep at| New Rochelle, N. Y. Though there were only a compara- tively few outstanding teams this year among the District scholastics most of the elevens were up to standard. In the public high group Tech, which again wont the championship, was in a class by itself. Two Strongest Teams. Devitt and Emerson were doubtless the strongest teams in the prep school whirl. Which was the stronger is a matter of speculation, since they did not meet. They probably would have waged s great scrap had they faced. Inci- dentally schoolboy fans here would be tickled to see Devitt and Emerson meet annually on the gridiron. There is a real rivalry between the schools and each generally has a strong team. Among the public high scnools East- ern, which finished second to Tech in the title set, showed well. Central had # disappointing season, while Western and Business failed to get anywhere. St. Johns Rated Third. Aside from Devitt and Emerson m; | ding team in the prep scl group | 1::5 St. John's, which had one of the | best elevens in the annals of the in-| stitution. Gonzaga did rather weil in | view of the large number of inexperi- | enced players on its squad. Georgetown Prep had a creditable season. Landon had a good record considering it was only its second season on the gridiron -and St. Al did not do so bad. Na- tional Training School for Boys, repre- ‘sented for the first time in the great ‘Autumn sport, did unusually well Woodward had an unsuccessful season. .. Dunbar was supreme zmong the col- ored scholastics, winning both the Dis- trict and South Atlantic titles. IOHNNES OUTRUN CARDS| RBuscell Finishes 300 Yards Ahead | “of Closest C. U. Harrier.

The Bench Show Committee, of which | Richard C. Birney is chairman, has ar- | ranged for a parade of champions. | Rosettes will be given owners of the champions. The committee requests that fanclers enter all champions in the District of Columbia. Reports received indicate an unusual- | ly large attendance, with dog fanciers| coming from all parts of the country. The breeds of dogs in the show fol- low: Sporting dogs, hounds, working dogs, terriers, toys and non-sporting The classes in the show are con- fined to recognized breeds and are ar- ranged as follows: Puppy, novice, Amer- ican-bred, limit, open and winners.

OHN BLICK'S bowling marathon tomorrow will not only test the stamina of the competitors, but will call for a large amount o(i duckpin skill to win the gvent. ‘The verdict of seven who liter- | ally thrive on bowling and everything connected with the bowling racket is that skill witl play a more important part. The big question, they say, is “What must a bowler average to win?” Take it from Brad Mandley, George Iseman, Henry Hiser, Pop Halley, Lon- nie Krauss, Arville Ebersole and Maxie Rosenberg. it will be a pretty high aver- age. These bowling moguls know this game from A to Z. Rosenberg, Isemann, Ebersole and Krauss think the winner will have to averag: 115 or better. “The champion will average close to 118" commented Isemann. ‘Now that may sound pretty steep, but under John Blick’s rules the bowlers are going to roll on one alley and then cross over. They'll have their eyes on the head pin and won't have to wait as in team | games.” Mandley and Halley agree on 110, with Rosenberg, also present at the confab between this pair, maintaining | (as Maxie will do) that the average will | be higher, | Krauss is of the opinion that 115 will be the winning average. Ebersole said, | “I'll back up Lonnie any day. If he| says 115, the winner will be close to it.” | At present, seven crack bowlers have | entered the marathon, which gets under | way tomorrow at 12:30 o'clock at Con- | vention Hall. In order to have their | total pins count, the marathoners must | finish within an hour of the first to| roll the 100 games. The seven bowlers are Mandley, Ise- mann, Henry Hiser, Dave Legum, Jess | White, Ed Gartrell and Burt Parsons. Of the seven, Henry Hiser, with his effortless delivery, is conceded the best chance by the majority of prognosti- cators, despite that he has not fully re- covered from the effects cf an automo- bile accident in 1929, which nearly put | an end to all Hiser duckpin efforts. Isemann today is nursing a blistered right mitt, the result of much training for the grind. Geol cannot hold & ball right now, but if the hand shows some improvement by tomorrow, he may tape it and take a crack at the 100 games. Legum has plenty of vouthful energy and will have to be watched. Mandley, always dangerous, thinks he’ll win as does Gartrell, Parsons and ‘White. Blick cannot see any one to beat Parsons, 'OMORROW'S marathon recalls the great endurance petformance in tenpins of Harry Krauss at the old Palace establishment in 1908. Krauss bowled for 24 hours without a letup, using one drive. It was a world record for many years. A man of powerful physique, he suf- fered little from fatigue except in his feet. The greatest wear was on the thumb and middle finger of his bowl- ing hand. Toward the firiish the thumb was 50 swollen Krzuss couldn't use his | regular ball. One with a much larger | thumb-hole was procured. The mid- dle digit was almost paralyzed, too. It was weak throughout the following season. Krauss shot 118 games and averaged 'Bannockburn Will Carfy On Despite Golf Course’s Need BY W. R. McCALLUM. UST by way of giving golf and the Bannockburn Golf Club a boost on this day devoted to the giving of thanks, we should like |to talk about what we have learned | yled meeting as follows: concerning the alleged impasse in which ‘ it is claimed the club finds itself. In the first place, the situation, we are; told, is not nearly as bad as first ac- | | counts would have it appear. Bannock- |any, should be authorized. burn is by no means in as bad finan- cial condition as the pessimists fear. Current accounts to be collected will leave the club owing but a compara- tively small amount, not more than a few thousand dollars, instead of the many thousands at which the first ac- counts placed the indebtedness of the | club. In the second place there is little likelihood that Bannockburn as a club| (will not continue to exist after the| members gather at 8:30 o'clock next | Monday evening to discuss the club af- fairs. ~Bannockburn has too many | loyal members, too many men who are willing to go down in their feans to| | help the organization, to permit such a | fine club to go out of existence. You can put it down in your little book that | Bannockburn will “be doing business next year, and at the old stand, out | there among the hills overlooking the Potomac, even though you may not climb to the top of some of those hills as you have in other years chasing an errant golf ball. The real question to be decided next Monday night, according to those in the | know, is a clean and open settlement as to just what is to be done about the golf course of the club. All agree that something should be done, that the situation regarding the course is not at all good, and that the club is at the parting of the ways, figuratively speak- ing, on what shall be done about the golf course, Drought Has Hurt Course. ‘The drought of the past season has played its part in this matter, and other factors have entered into it, chiefly the | attempt ot some members to have the course modernized at a cost of something like $50,000. The real issue before the members, we learn, is not whether tne club affairs shall be wound up, but whether the putting greens on the golf course shall be reconstructed, and certain changes made at a cost of about $30,000, or Bannockburn shall embark or a grand scheme of entirely rebullding 1its golf course under the | plan proposed by Charles H. Banks. | That, in & nutshell, is the meat of | the affair, according to those on the | inside. That Bannockburn will continue | as a golf club is a certainty, they say. Meanwhile, ths board of governors of the club has ordered that the restaur- ant be established on a cash basis, re- ry signing of chits. BOWIE RACES November 17 to November 29 Special ftrains on W. B. leave White House Station am., 12:00 m, 12:15 p.m. to grandstand. FIRST RACE, 12:45 P.M. & A 11:45 ‘Tony Sylvester, the club pro, has placed his golf business on a cash basis, and Bannockburn is moving along as usual. The notice posted on the bulletin beards at the club and sent to me; bers, announcing the meeting Mond: night, stated the purposes of the sched- (1) To consider whether the opera- tion of the club be continued or the affairs of the club wound up. (2) If the club is to be continued to consider whether further loans, if | (3) To elect successors to such of- ficers and members of the board as may tender their resignation at such meet- ing, the officers and members of the board present at the last meeting hav- ing been unanimous in their opinion that in line with their wish to promote the present and future welfare of the club and their desire to avoid embar- rassment, they should afford the club the opportunity to elect their succes- TS. This latter step means that many of the officers and members will present | their resignations, which is in line with | any reorganization scheme where the affairs of a corporation are turned over | to the stockholders, who hold the same | position as members of a golf club. Under one plan, certain changes would be made in the present golf course by way of rebuilding of greens and cutting down of climbs to hill greens, On the other a considerable amount of money would be spent in en- tirely rebullding the course. That is the problem before Bannockburn, You | may be sure the club will be continued. In Tony Sylvester's golf shop, Ton points with pride to a long wooden slal in which are stuck samples of every va- riety of artificial tee on the market. 8. Douglas Gibson, a member of the club for many years, is the enthusiast who | has gathered these tees, painstakingly bored holes for them in a board and | then presented them to Sylvester. There are nearly 100 different types of tees represented and Gibson says he may have missed a few. U. S. C.

IARMY SHAVETAL SPURN BIG BATTLE Young Officers Not Eager to Buy Seats for Navy Tilt in New York. Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. EW YORK, November 27.—Con- siderable dissatisfaction pre- vails among the younger offi- cers of the Army over their al- lotment of tickets for the Army-Navy foot ball game for the benefit of the Balvation Army unemployment fund to be played at the Yankee Stadium here Detember 13. ‘Tickets are apportioned by the Army Athletic Association on a basis of length of mem| in the association. This will relegate youngsters in the serv- ice attending the Army-Navy game to perches some place behind the goal, where a set of field glasses will permit them a bird's-eye view of what is going on out there on the gridiron among the gladiators of the service teams. Many a shavetail has not seen his alma mater go into foot ball action since he was graduated from the acad- emy—he having been here and there on business for his Uncle S8am. Back from the Philippines or Panama, from China, Hawali, Alaska or one of the outposts of the service, he would like a close-up of what he feels is his team, doing its stuff for the glory of West Point and the lang gray line. A roost in the upper reaches of the Bronx, strikes him as being & mighty cold spot for an old grad who might justly be supposed to have more inter- est in the campaign than the casual by-sitters. Officers Buy Few Seats. Material results of the dissatisfaction is shown by the fact there have been calls for but 9,000 tickets of the Army allotment. With 9,000 members, th normal request would be at least two each. which would bring the number to 18,000 easily. It is doubtful if the find the situation greatly improved since it is believed many of the younger members will join the radio audience, trusting to their ears rather than to their eyes to reduce distances.

After that, with the exception of the Apache-Mohawk grid classic, foot ball here will begin its annual fading act. ‘Today's games, however, carried no particular importance. Probably the standout clash was the all-star Capital City League-National Training School game, scheduled for 2 pm, on the school field. Another prominent con- test was the Palace-District Grocer tilt at Silver Spring at 2:30 pm. Despite the loss of Ed Abbey, player- coach, the Hawks are favored to defeat St. Mary's Oeltics when they clash Sun- day at Grifith Stadium.

BIG LEAGUE CHIEFS FAVOR ITS ERASURE Change in Base Ball Code Likely to Be Made at December Session, BY SAM MURPHY, ‘The Old Scout. EW YORK, November 27 (CP.A). — President John A. Heydler of the National League declared today that he favors the elimination of the fly ball sacrifice rule. Several weeks ago President Ernest Barnard of the American League announced he advocated a change in the rule, and now that the heads of the two majfor leagues agree on the point it is probable that the members of the Rules- Committee will make the change in the playing code at their meeting to be held in this city a few days after the joint conference of American and Na- tional League club o The joini 3 ke t is good enough for all practical | the purposes, but players have been known to stray to a spot two or three yards away, :rivm‘them h:] crlar shot at the 3 ) rom & hanging lie to a flat spot.

At the in the fairways, a condition that arose during the drought from 'the burned- out fairways. That condition, we be- lieve, now has been removed. At an- other club, certain players interpret “Winter rules” to mean teeing the ball everywhere except in a hazard, imply- ing that no penalty should’be paid for & shot that strays off the line into the rough. The best course is to play the ball as it lies, particularly now that the courses are in fairly good condition. il ELECTRICS CHALLENGE ‘Western Basketers Are Propared to Meet All Comers.
