SPORTS. 0G0 TONORFOLK FOR ARD PCKINGS Capital City on Mettle as Duckpin Leader—Squad Has Ten Champs. BY FRANCIS E. STAN. 71{ETHER Washington still rules the mapleways will be determined tomorrow in Norfolk, scene of the fifth national duckpin tournament Some 250 standard-bearers of the National Capital today mod- ernize an ancient fable and by water go in quest of a golden fleece, which in this instance is nine United States bowling cham- pionships. Included in the crack contingent sailing today are 10 champions, individually and coll six of the nine national 2 Jack Whelen, who wcn tao sing championship a year 2go, Now is a bona fide resident of Richmond, and as a Tepresentative of the Virginia capital will defend his laurels. Washington's star “kid” doubles team of Eddie Espey and Paul Harrison, winner of the na- tional crown, will be broken up, be- cause, as members of a bowling estab- lishment staff, they are ineligible to compete together. Pauline Ford, United States all- events champion, will defend her title, as_will the national women's doubles title holders, Margaret Miltner and El- sie Fischer; the champion John Blick girls and the winning mixed doubles duo of last year, Paul Harrison and Elsie Fischer. ROSPECTS for a repetition of last year’s feat of winning six cham- pionships are anything but bright, in view of the brilliant collection of scores already established in the na- | tional tournament by the earlier inva- | sions of the Baltimore and Annapolis bowlers and by some of Virginia pin- spillers from Richmond and the host town. 3 Reposing_at the top in the men's singles is Bill Arnold, member of the | Annapolis Buick team, with the very Tespectable total of 428, a tough score to beat in any instance and enhanced by the pressure attached to national competition. A score of 767 in the men’s doubles has been shot by William Easterday and Ray Clark, also of Annapolis, who are certain to finish in the money. | The most impressive of all, Charley | Bauer's 1,195 in the all-events, will re- | quire a_South Atlantic and perhaps a | United States record to top. Bauer, a Baltimorean, established a South At- lantic mark and was only eight pins | shy of a national record when he rolled the near-phenomenal total last Satur- | day. | A former national championship team, the Recreation Happy Five of Baltimore, winner in 1929, stands at the top in the men's team division with a score of 1,790. ALTIMORE now has its feminine | bowlers entrenched in all except one of the women'’s events. | To assume the lead In the singles a Washington girl will be forced to shoot more than 358, the total set up by | Helen Clements last week In the doubles Mae Schneider and Lotta Janowitz are out in front with 693, while Mary Lutz tops in the all- events with 1,016. | The Burk Co. girls of Norfolk are | the present team leaders with 1,630, while Lotta Janowitz and Andy Zeiler are holding the mixed doubles lead | with 654. | HE boat bearing Washington's na- | tional champlonship seekers is | slated to leave at 6:30 p.m. today. Arriving in Norfolk Saturday morning, the contingent will invade John S. Blick's new 48-alley establishment, and | will roll singles, doubles, team and | mixed doubles throughout the afternoon and_evening. The return trip will be started Sun- | " day night, with the boat scheduled to | dock here' Monday morning in time to | punch the time clock. S VIRGINIA IS HOPEFUL.

AMPA, Fla, April 1.—Federal Judge Alexander Akerman does not hold a high opinion of the intelligence of racing greyhounds. Judge Akerman has refused an injunction against the St. Peters- burg Kennel Club prohibiting the | use of mechanical rabbits on_dog tracks. A. J. O. Hoschek and Rob- ert J. Croasdell had brought suit | for $100,000, claiming patent in- | fringements. { The rabbit was exhibited and after studying it carefully the court delivered its opinion i “If I had a hound dog that would | run that thing, I'd kill him BLUE RIBBON MALT BIGGEST AMERICA'S Golf Analyzed BY JOE GLASS. Yesterday, we considered the stance for the explosion thot and the manner of regulating the dis- tance of the explosion. Today we will take up the swing. It is a full swing of the niblick, calling for as full a pivot as the irons demand elsewhere. The club- head is taken back outside the direc- tion line and brought down in the same manner. The right hand and arm really predcminate at the mo- ment of contact, but must not be allowed to keep the clubhead going out and away from the body. This helps to bring the clubhead up more steeply. At the moment when the club cuts into the sand, the heel of the club 2ppears 15 lead the toe. The steepness of the follow through is determined by the near- ness of the play to a bank. In the drawing above, Miss Helen Hicks is shown in the position she was com- pelled to take in exploding over a very steep bank. She was so close to it ske had no follow through. In the other drawing Eddie Loos shows hcw far up the club can be brought. He strongly shows a “lifting” tend- ency. Have you used up two or three strokes getting out of a sand trap? Joe Glass’s leaflet “The Explosion Shot” will aid you in cutting down your score. Write for it in care of Tre Star and inclose stamped, ad- dressed envelcpe.

SELLER THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, WPHILOMY SHINES - AS PIN MARKS SET Shoots Team Totals 1,965. 447, Takes District | Loop Lead—Lucky Strike CENTRAL-SOUTH ATLANTIC the fair club-wielders of Wash- ington who take their golf seri- ously and early are all primed for their season-opening initial tourney of the year next Monday, when teams representing six clubs will get together in the first of a series of team matches out of which will come the team which will be the interclub champions of the city for this year. Most of the larger golf clubs about the Capital will be represented in this initial tourney joust at Columbia, and the degree of seriousness with which HE golf season is creeping up on | us, and if you don't believe it, record and an all-time District League mark were established last night at the Lucky Strike when the Lucky Strikers rolled a team set of 1,965 and Earl McPhilomy shot 447 for the three games, but of more interest than either of the records was McPhilomy’s feat in bringing his aver- | age up to 121-8 and passing both Hokie Smith and Red Megaw in the District League high average race. McPhilomy, rolling 160, 155 and 132. enabled his team to shoot games of 646, 659 and 660 for a new Central- South Atlantic mark. The former record was 1939, established by the Baltimore Wolverines on March 24. 1930. In rolling the record total, the Lucky | Strikers made 59 spares and 12 strikes. | Only two weeks ago Pete Lawhorn broke the 16-ycar-old high set record of Ray Chapin when he shot 438, four pins better than Chapin's mark McPhilomy now is the only pinman in the District League with an average of over 121. Smith, runner-up. has 120-74 for 78 games. McPhilomy has | rolled 72 strings. In rolling the record set. Astor Clarke shot 379; Howard Campbell, in his second appearance after a long and serious illness, 398; Paul Brill. 353: Clem Weidman, who recently recuper- ated from an’ appendicitis operation, 388. and McPhilomy. making a “come- back” this year after giving up the game for his health for several years, 447 Carroll Daly and Ray Barnes, reg- ular members of the Lucky Strike team, were missing, Brill .and Campbell re- | placing them. Barnes had been rolling during_Campbell's illness. The Foun- the women take these team matches well evidenced by the amount of prac- |tice that has been going on among them for the past fortnight. Almost any fairly good day the members of the women's teams have been practic- ing over their home courses for the | opening of the season on Monday. ONGRESSIONAL, with & strong and well balanced team, headed by Mrs. J. Marvin Haynes, champion woman | golfer of the Middle Atlantic sector, won the team title last year after & prolonged series of matches that in- volved most of the clubs around the Capital, but this year, with a shorter schedule drawn up, the women players | are going after the team contests in more determined fashion than ever be- fore and are organizing their teams to go after the collective scalps of their Congressional confreres. Columbia, In- dian Spring and Chevy Chase all have strong women's teams and all will play in the team competitions, in addition to teams from Manor, Washington and Beaver Dam. But the team contests only start the season. One week from next Monday the fair devotees of the driver and the niblick, getting a jump ahead of the men, as usual, will start their regular tournament season with a miniature event at Indian Spring, unveiling a season that will stretch from early April into October. Only a week later they will play in the first of the larger af- fairs of the season—the competition for the Phyllis Keeler Miller memorial trophy at the Washington Golf and Country Club, always the opening big event of the year. As has been the custom in past years the District Women's Golf Association | tain Hams, opponents of the Lucky | has stretched 6ut a welcoming hand to | strikers, dropped all three games. | the unattached players who wish to D. C, FRIDAY, STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE play in the tourneys of the association. They cannot play in the team matches, since they represent no regularly organized clubs, but they can and do play in the scheduled tourneys of the association. They may become eligible to play in the tourneys by sending their names to Miss Sue E. Gantt at 925 Fifteenth street, accompt by dues of $1. Miss Gantt is chairman of the unattached Women’s Committee for the District Women’s Association. The unattached players will be eligible to play in all the minor affairs of the association, but will not be eligible to play in the Dictrict championship and one or two of the other major tourneys. 'HE woman golfers are up and com- ing this year. Instead of operat- ing in a somewhat informal manner, they are going after tournament golf ina serious way this year, as proved by their comprehensive schedule of tourna- ments and team matches. ‘Their Ischedule calls for much more activity than that of the players of the male persuasion. ‘Women’s golf around Washington is up and coming and out of it may be developed one or two good players able to hold their own in national golf tournaments. So far Washington has not been able in recent years to produce a qualifier in the women's national, but out of this series of tournaments and as a result of the increasing activity in wcmen's golf there may come one or | two players who may be able to hold | their own with the golfers from other | sections. Washington has done as well in men’s golf with Roland MacKenzie and George Voigt and there is no reason why it cannot produce a fair golfer of their class in her own sphere. |SOUNDS WARi‘HNG TO U.

ETROIT, April 1.—Buffalo and Cleveland line-ups will monopo- lize most of the 32 alleys in the American Bowling Congress tourna- ment today, beginning a week end assault which may change the situa- tion among the leaders. Buffalo is sending 35 teams into action, including the well known Caruana five, captained by Frank Caruana. The diminutive Italian has been rated for many years as one of the best match bowlers of the country. In 1924 he established a record that has never been equaled when he scored two consecutive 300 games in league competition. Collin- wood five, Cleveland, is also a stand- out line-up. Saturday and Sunday the card will be filled with fast aggregations. GYMNASTS STRUT STUFF Springfleld College Team to Give Full Program at Howard.
