Dixie Pig Bowlers Punctual and Proficient : Heavy Bout Headed fo "ONLY ONE SUB USED INFOUR CAMPAIGNS Roll In Three Leagues, but Never Worse Than Second. Enter Star Tourney. BY R. D. THOMAS. HE “Dixie Pigs” they call I themselves, but Hugh Wal- o drop and his bowling play- mates of Hyattsville could find a more descriptive name, like | “The Five Muskateers,” for in- stance. Waldrop, Robert L. McCall, Percy L. Wolle, C. Harry Wolfe and Horace E. Snowden are in a fair way to éstablish a record for solidarity as a duckpin team, if they haven’t done so al- ready. The five have bowled every match of the schedules of three leagues for four seasons with only one. substitution. Two years ago Hugh Waldrop went on a hunting trip and his place for one match was taken by Hugh Crawley. Their record for close association, however, is hardly more noteworthy than the Dixie Pigs' achievements. They have won three pennants and have never finished below second place. Their ehampionships have been won in the Prinice Georges County, North of Wash- mg:m and Columbll Heights Leagues. réy Wolfe is the big pork of the five in the matter of gathering map] His general average is, around 117, Recently he shot consetutive sets of 422 and 423. With league bowling about finished until after the holidays the Dixie Pigs are looking eagerly to the third annual Yuletide singles tournament of The Evening Star, entries for which close next Saturday midnight with play at the Coliseum to open December 26. Dixie Pigs will be among a large group of suburban bowlers who will have a special spot on the tourna- ment program. Hyattsville and Bethesda will be strongly represented in the delegation.

C. Boles, etcor of athletics at Wooster. In his letter to Lieut. Comdr, F, G. Reinicke, graduate manager of Navy athletics, Boles said: “We would be proud to play Navy, offering our little gesture of approvai to the manner in which your institution has attempted to lead the Nation in clean athletics.” les has been a champion in the Ohio confennce of clean sportsmanship and one.of its most persistent battlers against any taint of professionalism in -v.hlmu Wooster and Oberlin, the two schools which have to aylarge extent dominated the Ohio Conference for the last decade, have stood shoulder to shoulder to malntain a high amateur mxng Boles came fo Wooster as coach in 1915 and this season finished his fif- year of foot ball here.

Boles spent the 19268 season in Cali- fornia, studying foot ball under “Pop” Warner. His teams are known as élevens that play smart foot ball and teams which have a thorough knowlédge of fundamentals. Boles, aside from foot ball, likes golf, and ranks as one of Ohio's bést amateurs. The game between Wooster and Navy was arranged, to some extent at least, through friendship between Boles and Lieut. Comd?. Reinicke. Reinicke’s fa- ther, the late Rev. Joseph Reinicke, for- merly was pastor of a Wooster church. ‘Three of Reinicke’s sisters are graduates of Wooster, and Reinicke, during one furlough here, assisted Boles in develop- ing one of his teams.

HE base ball meeting closed with- out any move by club owners to veil the short fences or any other fences. Home runs are saved to the country. It was felt that it would add to the depression to go back to doubles and triples. “The return to the old sacrifice fly rule and the fact that balls bouncing into the stands will now be classed as two- baggers will undoubtedly have an effect on averages, but will have little effect on actual hitting. Even in the bandbox parks the balls that bounce into the ntundo are about one half of 1 per cent. The leagues have made a gesture, but have done nothing concerning the “pop flies,” which constantly go as home runs. ‘The whole matter was a bit like the case of the man who was in favor of dividing all worldly [oodu equally, until it came to goats. He had a goat. The movement for the diminution of circuit clouts was most enthusiastically advanced by those who had no great home-run hitters. But to owners who were paying Wilsons, Ruths, Gehrigs, Kleins and Simmonses salaries, the idea of cutting down four-base wallops did not make any great appeal. It may be that the manufacturers will take some means to make the ball less lively; but, if for any reason the turn- stiles do not click as merrily as ever the rabbit ball will come bounfllnl back again with intense speed.
