B ey P oy SPORTS. College Players THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON, D. C, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 7%, 19%%, Are Revealed in the Ranks of English SPORTS.: - Many Clever LINKS STARS SEEN INBRITISH SQUADS Oxford-Cambridge Play Expected to Establish Internationalists. BY LAWRENCE PERRY. EW YORK, February 4.— with the Oford and cam- oridge golf teams begin- ning intensive practice for their annual golf match, which takes place at the Royal St. George links, Sandwich, the last of next month, golfers in this country who think in international terms are wondering whether some out- standing player or players will be established. Interest chiefly centered in J. P. Marston, the Oxford captain, who re- cently defeated Charles Whitcombe, the emmnent British pro, in a match which the collegians plaved against a team of professionals. True, Marston received the usual three-hole handicap, but, even 50, in defeating the man who has been named as captain of the Ryder Cup team which will meet American pros at Columbus, Ohio, next June, Marston turned in a victory which was highly creditable as well as rich in its promise of future exploits. Americans in England Clever. But two Americans in Oxford also are very prominent, the best being Charles Sweeney, Who Won so consist- ently at Touquet last Summer. He has a brother in Oxford who also is an able swinger. Stewart Scheftel and his younger brother also are Oxonians of high ability. Stewart is the better of the two. It is practically certain that among the 10 players on the Oxford team in the match against Cambridge Sweeney and the two Scheftels will be included. None is a Rhodes scholar. all having entered Oxford as undergradu- ates. History shows that the two great English _universities have been _the great breeding places of amateur golfers of merit. Five British championships in the past 11 years have been won by | players from these universities. viz. Sir | Frnest Holderness, twice: Cyril Tolley, | twice, and R. H. Wethered. In the United States, as it happens. there exists at present a wealth of Is ¥ | Deita Omega at 7:30. | —Frank Snyder, former catcher of the studies.

Suffern Tailer, a freshman at Princeton, has already won the Rhode Island State championship as well as other titles; but, curiously, he has been spending his first year at Nassau as & candidate for the freshman crew. Sam Perry of the University of Ala- ama is another mighty able golfer, as is Jack Martin of the University of Tilinols. Then there is Robert Moffet of Princeton. | Tailer's plan of going in for rowing | may or may not hurt his golf; in any | case it is & fine thing for him to do in- | asmuch as it indicates a wholesome at- titude toward sport. The British have it and the fact that thev hold a brief for other sports may be one of the reasons why they do not shine against us_in Walker Cup play. | Wethered and Tolley and Holderness are all cricket players and love the game and they also go in for tennis.| It was Wethered, in 1921, who came to| the final of the British open and then | with that valuable title at stake he| asked the committee to hold the final match against Jim Barnes at an early hour, as he had an engagement to play in a cricket match “That may not be golf, but it revealed the finest sort of amateur. OLD FOES TO BATTLE Aces Go to Alexandria Tonight to Play Lyceum Five. ALEXANDRIA, Va., February 4.— St. Mary’s Lyceum Five, victors over Alexandria High last night, 38 to 32, will meet an old foe in the Washington Aces tonight at 8:30 on the Armory Hall court. Members of the Alpha Delta Omega and Fraters' Pals basket ball teams will meet at 6 o'clock at 1102 King street, to travel to Warrenton this evening. The Praters’ Pals will meet the War- renton A.

Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potcmac Railroad Co. cagers will encounter the Quantico Marines at Quantico, Va., to- night at 8 o'clock. Two games will be played at the Armory Hall tomorrow night with Del Ray A.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex., February 4 (#) New York Nationals, and manager of Golfers Chips From the Mapleways BY R. D. THOMAS. DISPLAY of sportsmanship by team captains of the District League in permitting The Hecht Co. to use an ineligible bowler ymay have undesirable conse- quences. The player in question, Thurston Furr, was ignorant of the league's trans- fer rule and shot several matches with The Hechts before it was revealed that he had rolled previously with Conven- tion Hall. The Hecht captain, Roscoe Reichard, was not aware of Furr's early scaton connection. If the games in which Furr took part were thrown out the King Pin and Temple teams would be deadlocked for first place. The Hechts won three from the Temples and two from the King Pins and the latter now hold a half-game advantage. The leaders will clash Friday night at the Lucky Strike. Max Rosenberg. captain of the team that stood to gain most if the Hechts were penalized, was staunchest in op- posing such a mov>, He held that there should be no punishment for an unin- tentional infraction. Max's spirit was to be commended, but it is quespionable that it was wise for the league to accept his waiver. There may be another violation of the trans- fer rule with captains less altruistic than Rosenberg to deal with, and the offender would have a precedent on which to base an argument. YATTSVILLE, continues its dash toward th: top League, its 2-to-1 victory over Ren- dezvous at Hyattsville last night having put it almost on even terms with the King Pins. For two games it seemed the Suburbanit-s would hang up a rec: ord for sit. They shot 676 in the first and 630 in the second, winning both with ease, but they took a sickening tumble in the final which they lost with a score of 536 Hugh Waldrop was high for Hyatts- vill with 387, which included a top in the District | game of 154, but closely trailing him was Henry Hiser, who is out to establish a District League record for average. Henry picked up handsomely on average of 121 with a set of 387. His best string was 158. N Jack Whalen team with 379, A record for the Washington Ladies' League was made by Billle Williams of the University Park team when she rolled 147 in the first game of a match with Veterans Bureau. A double- header strike and three spares turned the trick. Miss Willlams would have beaten 150, but for a cut-through count on a tenth-box spare.

By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, February 4—Intent on repaying the visit which America’s woman golfers made to England last Summer rather than attempting any serious competition on the links, an in- formal golfing invasion from Great Britain has reached New York. Led by Diana Fishwick, British wom- an's champion, the woman golfers, num- bering a dozen, will leave Saturtiay for Florida, where they expect to play in three tournaments Neither Miss Fishwick nor her com- panions, most of whom she described as “good county golfers,” but not interna- tionalists,” are taking their present visit seriously, so far as golf is concerned. ning with & luncheon é. e n's i Tul -up to Miss PFishwick in the British champlonshi ot ‘Scquaintances with the players e ers whe visited them last S er are lh: principal object of the visitors.

Chevrolet has set a new standard of value With quality that begins in the selection of raw materials and extends to the smallest detail of finish, the new Chev- rolet Six has set a new standard for the low-price field. This is not only a new promising young golfers. There is Don Moe of Portland, Oreg., who left the University of Oregon to go abroad with . the Walker Cup team, and has re- turned—or will return—to continue his ROD AND STREAM BY PERRY MILLER. The dispatch referred to said: “Fish- ing has been so good during the past week off shore here that yesterday (Wednesday) 30 boats were out, some of them having come to Rock Hall for that purpose.” The story says that Rock Hall fisher- men are much excited over the prospect of a bill being introduced in the present Maryland Legislature prohibiting the use of purse nets in the bay. The purse net fishermen claim the passage of such a bill would destroy the industry and that prescure is being brought to bear on the Kent County delegation in the General Assembly to fight such a mea- sure. Rod and Stream is reliably informed | that the purse net bill will be enacted |into law this year. A great many of the Maryland legislators are in favor of the measure and the entire Western Maryland delegaiion not only wants this measure passed, but also the bill prohibiting the sale of black bass in the Maryland markets. There are at pres- ent only nine States in the Union which have no black bass law and of these nine, two of them are Maryland and Pennsylvania. Unless the Maryland Legislature passed the purse net bill, the commercial fishermen will soon de- | plete the supply of rockfish in the | waters of the Bay, and thereby deprive | many times their number of a source of | livelihood catering to the wants of | ang'ers, who spend hundreds of thou- | sands of dollars annually in quest of their favorite fish standard of quality, but one of value as well. For this attractive, capable new Six is offered at the lowest prices in Chevrolet history! the Fort Wdrth team of the Texas League in 1930, yesterday was fined $5 and costs on a charge of assault upon C. W. Russ of San Antonio. Although the new Chevrolet Six is one vild-fowl shoot! s HE season for wild-fowl shooting of the most inexpensive automobiles on has closed in all parts of the United States. Under the Federal regulations birds legally killed may be pos- in any State during the open season in the State where killed and for & period of 10 days thereafter. Persons having water-fowl in their possession now are cautioned that they shquld con- sult their State game laws, in some of the States the period for possession allowed under Federal regulations is curtailed by State law. Birds in posses- | sion after the periods allowed by Fed- eral regulations are liable to seizure by | United States game protectors, and the ewners are subject to prosecution. E. Lee LeCompte, State game warden of Maryland, say “The season has been a very unsatisfactory one in Mary- | Jand. I am sure it has been so in all Btates east of the Mississippl Valley. The wild-fowl situation is probably | more serfous than many of our Mary- jand sportsmen are aware. There is a | strong sentiment to try to induce the Biological Survey to close the season | entirely for the hunting of wild-fowl in 1931-32. We hope such ration will not be taken, but at this tige we ap- peal to the sportsman and hunters of Maryland to comply with the law and not hunt, pursue or kill any wild-fowl or any species after sunset today until the openmng of the hunting season No- vember 1.
