SPORTS. HAS FINE RECORD AS COACH OF LINE Navy- Bil’s Plans Unknown, but California Is Said to Be Destination. NNNAPOLIS, January 12.— Edgar (Rip) Miller, associ- ate of the Four Horsemen on the Notre Dame foot ball team of 1925, who now holds| a business position in Washing- | ton, is being mentioned strongly as Bill Ingram’s successor as head coach at the Naval Academy. Miller has been line coach at| the Naval Academy for four sea- | sons and has become well ac- quainted with conditions at that| institution. As line coach, his work has been highly satisfac- tory, and it is believed that he is thoroughly competent to as- sume full charge of the squad. An invitation to remain as line coach next year already has been accepted by Miller, and many hope that he will be offered the higher position and will ac- cept. Ingram’s declination of the offer of the academy officials was received yes- terday and occasioned much surprise, as Ingram had intimated unofficially two weeks ago that he would remain at the academy. Ingram’s Plans Unknown. ~ !nxram was offered a contract for two seasons and this in itself marked a special action by the officials, as it has been the settled policy at the academy to engage all coaches for a single sea- son. Just what Ingram’s plans for the future are is not known here, not even to the extent of whether he will remain in foot ball and take up some other oc- cupation. Before coming to the academy he coached at William and Mary and the University of Indiana. At the bottom of Ingram’s unwilling- ness to remain at the academy is be- Ilev!d to be a feeling that Navy people general expect more of the :hnn it is able to achieve. Ingram feels that the Naval Acad- emy seldom has the material to pro- duce a team on a par with the strong- est teams of the cmmtry and_this is by all Navy people. In uup- of his contention, Ingram po the h' average age of nudenu efltefln‘ academy. 's first year at the academy was IIIG 'hen his team was rated the best in the country, but none of the succeeding four teams has up to that standard. only one former coach, Bob Folwell, has equaled the record of Ingram as head coach at the Naval Academy for a period of five years. May Go to California. ANHAPOL!B Md., January 12 (#).— Williama A. Ingram, foot ball coach at the Naval Academy for the last five years, is leaving Annapolis to coach elsewhere, presumably at the University of California. Capt. Henry C. Cooke, director tics, announced that “Navy nm" talls must k¢ Ingram, s must come from now at his home at Jeffersonville, Ind. At Jefersonville Ingram said he had that he intended to continue coaching, nnd that the school which would make the an- t in the near future, “My reasons for arriving at this de- cision are known to the athletic de- partment at the Naval Academy,” he added, “and any further statement in that nnrfl must emanate from that ‘The authorities at the Naval Amy have been fully cognizant of all negotiations I have had with any other institution.” ‘Three weeks ago Ingram, in denying that he was negotiating for the post of coach at the University of California, declared that he had “no idea of not remrnlnc to Navy.” Ingram was a gridiron and rowing star for Navy, and later foot ball coach at William and Mary College and Uni- versity of Indiana. Wanted Longer Contract. ‘There have been reports that he and Navy athletic authorities disagreed over the terms of his contract. During last year'’s spotty season he was under a one-year contract.

HYATTSVILLE COASTS AGAINST MT. RAINIER Will Start No Regulars Tomorrow in Opener of Series for Scholastic Title. HYATTSVILLE, Md., January 12.— | 3 ‘With the idea of giving its younger op- ponents as even an opportunity as possible, Hyattsville High School will start a line-up against Mount Rainier Junior High basketers tomorrow after- noon containing no seniors. The game will be played on the Mount Rainier School court at 3:30 o'clock. It will be the first of a three-game series for the Georges County public high school championship. Coach Stanleigh Jenkins announced today that he plans to start this Hyatts- wville line-up: Harold Brown and Warren Kidwell, forwards; Vincent Stevens, center, and Burdette Cogar and Coleman Headley, guards. Others who may see action, yuucularly if Hyattsville gains an ap- iable lead, are Jimmy Rimmer and Phil Ziegler and Bob Emory, guai il LOS ANGELES GETS MOSS Cubs Give Southpaw Hurler Part Payment for Baecht.

Devitt, going in for basket ball this season in only a desultory way, is by no means taking this attitude toward track. The Upton street scholastics have hopes this year of getting back to the high place-they formerly occupied in track. Under the direction of J. Leighton (Count) Cornwell, who will coach the squad for the time being at least, Devitt's candidates for honors in track and fleld were to start training today on the board track at Georgetown Uni-'| versity. Among leading aspirants are George Linder, high and low hurdler, a prod- uct of the Moses Brown School, at Providence, R. I. Linder, says Count, is plenty good. According to plans he will represent the school in the Boston A. A. games next month in the Hub. Charles Harvey, said to have ability in both the dashes and field events, and who played at tackle and fullback on the foct ball team the past sergon, and Soulard Turner, who runs the 100 and 220 dashes and is a broad jumper, are among other candidates. Dual Meets Planned. Devitt is planning dual meets with Georgetown Prep and the Navy Plebes and probably will compete in the C Club games and other meets. Though Devitt is not playing a regu- lar schedule in basket ball, it has & group working under the direction of Coach Jim McNamara, containing sev- eral capable performers. McNamara is hustling the bunch along in preparation for its first appearance of the campaign against the Georgetown freshmen Fri- day night in the Tech gymnastum in the preliminary to the G.

HYATTSVILLE GUARDS DIVIDE DOUBLE-HEADER HYATTSVILLE, Md, January 12.— Company F Regulars defeated Pontiacs of Washington, 28 to 20, but the Reserves lost to Olmsted Grill In a 25-15 match on the armory flaor yes- terday. Regulars outclassed Pontiacs de- cidedly in the first half, which ended with the Guards@en holding a 16-4 lead. The Wi nians rallied in the late going, but could not overcome the big early lead of their opponents. Bob Shanklin for the winners and Boyd for the losers were the leading scorers, each with 10 points. 1In the preliminary the Guard Reserves fought stoutly for the first half, at the end of which Olmsted Grill was ahead only 14 to 12.

IN CHESS UCH to the surprise of the chess world, the international tour- nament of the Hastings Chess Festival resulted in a victory for Dr. Max Euwe of Holland, followed by Capablanca, former world champion, and Mir Sultan Khan, Brit- ish champion. Dr. Euwe lost but one game, and that to Miss Menchik, world | woman champion, and drew but two, to | Capablanca end Thomas. Capablanc only loss was to Suitan Khan, whic brought a round of applause, an un- usual occurrence. ‘The final scores: Dr. Euwe, 7—2; Ca~ pablanca, 67,—2%;; Sultan Khan, 6—3; Michell, 5—4; Yates, 47,—4%; Thomas, 4—5; Winter, 3 Menchik, 33.—86; Tylor, 3—6; Colle, 21,—8615. Considering only the play of the Lon- don players among themselves, and in- cluding in this list Khan and Miss Men- chik, who lives in London and has, it is reported, applied for British citizenship, the standing is as follows: Khan, 4—2; Yates, 4—2 Michell, 3%6—2%; Winte; ford player and played on the British team at Hamburg last Summer.

BATTLING IS KEEN INWILSHIRE GULF ozen Pros in Running at Los Angeles—MacKenzie Tops Amateurs. BY PAUL ZIMMERMAN, Associated Press Sports Writer. OS ANGELES, January 12.—Only 1 stroke to the good, two Chi- cago veteran professionals, Eddie Loos and Al Espinosa, turned into the home stretch of the Los An- geles $10,000 open golf tournament to- day with scores of 139, hoping they could match these figures on the re- maining 36 holes. Within half a dozen strokes of the leaders trekked 11 of the remaining field of 51, all in & position to overtake the pair and win first-place money of $3,500. Foremost of these was Leo Diegel, former P. G. A. champion, from Agua Caliente, Mexico, who had a par of 140 for two days of toil over the trouble- making Wilshire Country Club course. One of Chicago’s younger generation, Frank Walsh, stood next, with 141, while Wiffy Cox, Brooklyn, N. Y., and Craig Wood, long-hitting Bloomfield, N. J.,_pro, followed with cards of 142. Espinosa furnished the fairway fire- works yesterday when he toured the 18 holes in 67, 3 under par, after shooting 72 the o?enlng day. An infrequent vlsnor among the ranks of the leaders, Loos shot a par 70 yesterday after opening his play with a 69. Hagen'’s Fine Shot. Walter Hageh gave the gallery of 7,000 its biggest thrill, Sir Walter, after an indifferent start Saturday with 74, came back to match par with a 70. ‘The most spectacular shot of the tour- nament on the eighteenth made this possible. With a No. 1 iron, the Haig drove his second shot to within 8 inches of the cup and downed it for a birdie 3. As a result, he moved into a five-way tie for seventh place with Harry Cooper, Chicago; Tommy Armour, P. G. A. champion from Detroit; Tony Manero, New York, and Roland Mac- Kenzie, Washington, D. C., amateur. They had 144's. With four Chicago pros among the first 11, the tourna- ment took on a distinct Lake Michigan chill for the rest of the field. MacKenzie was making it a walk- away for low amateur prize, playing the best golf of his career. Aside from Es- pinosa’s 67, Walsh was the only other player to crack par, shooting a 69.

It's between Marlboro and Washing- ton Concord now, but soccer fans will have to sit back until January 25 for the clash-in the Washington and Southeastern District Cup tourney. Marlboro, like Washington Concord a week previous, swept aside its last foe, D. C. Kickers, yesterday by 4 to 1, to enter the final round. D. C.

Eastern and Western will have lt out in the first game of a double-h on the Tech court with those old Iou, ce.mnl and Tech, meeting in the opener at_3:30 o'clock.

It's good golf to know. Most of the stars from Jones on down the line tee the ball for driving off the left shoulder. Same for putts. That's the low arc of the swing.

McCALLUM RUST the golfers to find them- selves a fine piece of weather and use it. Not & local golf course yesterday but was crowded to the limif. Club swinging enthusiasts anxious to make up for time lost over the past three or four weeks of cold or rainy weather, dusted off their golf implements and went out for a whack at the elusive pill. Columbia Country Club, which prob- ably has as many actual golfers as any other local organization, did not quite come up to the high mark set a week ago, but “Red” Banagan, assistant pro, proudly pointed to the fact that 178 players left the first tee in yesterday's sunshine an¢ balmy weather, where 188 started on the previous Sunday. Only 95 used the ccurse on Saturday, “which was cold,” as Banagan put it. Over at Washington Golf and Coun- try Club, which also has a large number of golfers, no accurate count was kept, but the course was crowded from early in the morning until late afternoon. Probably more than 150 teed off, while Congressional, Indian Spring, Bannock- burn, Argyle, Chevy Chase and Burning Tree reported unusually heavy play for a mld -Winter dl{ t Potomac it the larges! tum-out Down where '.he wind sweeps across the Potomac from the Virginia hills, more than 1,000 golfers used the five courses during the #ay, while at Rock Creek Park more than 600 took uivuzhn of the fine weather ta enjoy a round.
