SPORTS. W Minard and Quantrelle Battle Tonight for District Horseshoe Championship THREE. FAVORITES LOSE T0 ‘UNKNOWN Plumer, Monk, Gourvenec Put Out by 54-Year-0ld in Quest of Health. B to journey out to Colorado | or Arizona every so often | to have his windpipe repaired, but he hasn't been away for sometime now. | Literally a n d flgura!ively,“ Minard has pitched himself into| a fine state of health, also into| unexpected fame. | For tonight Minard will be one of the principals when the final match is played for the horseshoe championship of Washington. His opponent, on the | Eckington Recreation Center court, be- | side the McKinley High School Swim- | ming Pool, will be Hubbard Quantrelle, a youngster who for three vears has come steadily forward in_competition for various titles in The Star's apnual metropolitan district championships. 1 Under the daylight lamps of the swimming pool, Minard and Quantrelle will clash at 7:30 o'clock with four out of seven 50-point games to determine the victor. XCEPT within his own circle of playmates out Petworth way, Minard a week ago was unknown &s a horseshoe pitcher. He opened his campaign for the District title by de- feating one of the prime favorites. Jim and ever since has held the spotiight in the all-star tournament, which opened Wednesday night. Minard’s trail to the final was strewn with notable victims. Last ht he polished off three, one after the other. Throwing ringers with monotonous pre- cision, he defeated Joe Plumer, 50—42 50—37: Jean Monk, 50—33, 50—30. and capped it all off by eliminating the de- champion, John Gourvenec, 50—30, 43—5 28. N a way, last night's achievement was a double triumph for Minard with his advancement in the tournament of the lesser importance. His was a conguest, tco. of illness: for to pitch eight 50-point games with 2'-pound irons thrown 40 feet and maintain ac- curacy requircs a hardiness of Eody above the ordinary. Never along the way did Minard weaken either physi- cally or in spirit and there were times when the veteran in every serse was thoroughly on his mettle. It was thought he'd weakened when sccond game to semi mateh, but Minard nger than ever, He made like job of slapping on ILL MINARD, Government plate printer, aged 54, used square t came back § a very busin ringers in Mechanically, Quantrelle is rated a better pitc! than Minard, but the young star—you can bet your overcoat on it—will need all his skill and sand | to prevail tonight. | — | UANTRELLE reached the final by | defeating Henry Jolliffe, O. B. At-| wood, who gave him lots of WoOrTy and Raymond Brown, another tough | customer. Quantrelle lost the first | game of the semi-final to Brown. 49— 50: won the second, 50—31. and lm-‘ proved his play to take the rubber, 50—39, but none too convincingly. Minard.

Then Londos began to warm up and both principals exchanged sundry grips. | At the 50-minute mark both boys ap- parently were slightly unsteady on their | feet. Londos, however, appeared the more chipper and smacked Garibaldi to the mat in four consecutive airplane spins. The Italian, however, kept a shoulder off the canvas and cscaped after the fourth spin. Apparently groggy. he at- tempted his tackle, missed, and wen: sailing through the ropes. While Lon- dos reeled around the ring Referee (a good one) Bob Jones tolled the fatal “10,” Garibaldi just reaching the edge of the mat in time to hear it. The other good match on the card was furnished by Rudy Dusek and Herman Hickman, minute draw. Hickman, former All- America grid star from Tennessee, did most of the work and had all the bet- | ter of the going. He was bleeding pro- fusely, however, at the end. Other results: Fred Grobmier and Milo Steinborn drew, 30 minutes; Son | Jennings threw Nino Darnaldi, 10 min- utes. and Pat O'Shocker tossed Dick Stabl in 14 minutes.

Take two ropes and fasten them to ‘ANCHORING" NouR TENT the tent poles as shown in the illus- tration. Then crossing them in the middle cf the tent fly, tie them tightly to stout ground stakes. By doing this on both sides it is almost impossible for a storm to “bl ou away.” Always on a camping trip have two or three extra 30 or 40 foot ropes around. They have many uses such as above explained, as clothes lines, etc. MEXICANS BEAT YANKS.
