SP ORTS. D. O, THURSDAY. MARCH 23, 1933. SPORTS Jobless Coach Toiling Energetically to Give D. C. a Real Track Team DORSEY GRIFFITH REFUSES T0 ILE Profession Also His Hobby, Former C. U. Tutor Will Carry On Payless. BY R. D. THOMAS. ORSEY GRIFFITH, antique i merchant and track coach, is vastly annoyed over having very little use to make of a great deal of time. To hear Dorsey tell it, the antique trader is as active these days as an Egyptian mummy—any mummy, in fact—and the track coaching business as depressed as all hollow. “I tell you,” sald Griff today, “your Uncle Dorsey’s affairs have come to a tragic pass. And something’s got to be _done about it quick.” “Yes,” we sympathized, “I don’t sup- | fpose many folks are going in now for gntiques.” “Antiques?” Dorsey looked scornful, *shucks, I'm not worried about ntiques. What gripes me is not aving anything to COACH!” T has been many years since Dorsey Griffith was without a coaching job or in some way hooked in with ack athletics and because he refuses remain out of action, Washington is 0 have an athletic .club like the amous Columbia A. C. which flourished bere over a quarter century back. For the erstwhile track coach of [Catholic University- s preparing to prganize such & club in order to create B jo: tmr himself—and & payless job 8t that. “I'm not happy,” he explains, “with- out a track team to coach. Coaching ‘with me is much more of a hobby than TO BOX IN ALEXANDRIA Seven Bouts Will Be Presented by Boys at Lyceum Tonight.

ASHINGTON wrestling fol- lowers tonight will be dealt a long-premised “new hand” when a shuffied pack of pachyderms are led into the Washing- ton Auditorium by Promoter Joe Turner. The too often seen Grob- miers and Judsons are buried in the deck and in their stead as future headliners may rise Ernie Dusek, Abe Coleman, Hans Kampfer and Karl Davis. Dusek and Coleman will tangle to & finish in the feature bout. Dusek, youthful Nebraskan, has faced his un- dersized rival before, but never in a finish match. Previous matches con- .sss..ently havé ended in 30-minute B profession. I get a genuine kick out | draw: of improving athletes and pitting 'em Bgainst others.” ORSEY GRIFFITH got a tough break at Catholic University. Just | when things were coming _his direction in a large way the school closed down on varsity track, discon- tinued its annual indoor meet and can- | celed Griffith’s job. The school lost a good man—none knew it better than Arthur J. Bergman, director of athletics—but Washington's athletes in general may have gained = lot by the move. Griffith is deter- mined to put over something big in track sports here and when Dorsey 4s sot on getting a thing done, it gen-| erally gets. The C. U. indoor meet was an ex- mple of his enterprise and perserver- mnce. Griff labored long and hard and worried profusely over the meet for four years. It had become one of the largest events of its kind in the East when the school abendoned it because of finan- «cial risk. IN the light of recent happenings C. U. 4 may be judged guilty of error in tossing out the meet, if it was done | on financial grounds. Track meets have been uniformly successful lately in the matter of expenses. The more impor- tant events nave been sellouts or close to it, and the C. U. affair gave promise of a better field than ever. Griffith had received the pyomises of many leading institutions to send teams, and was as- sured of fine line-ups for special events designed to pull in the fans. At present Griffith plans merely a track team, to be made up of ex-col- legians in the main, but with all types of amateurs welcome. A number of dual meets is included in his project, with the best of the team members to be sent to the major events. Track facili- ties in the Capital are easily obtainable, and the club, of coursg, would not want for a director and coach. Griffith really started his venture a wear ago when he formed the City of Washington relay team to run in a spe- cial club race in his meet. The team got nowhere, but its formation brought out the fact that Washington is rich in ex-colfegiate athletic material. In the near future Griffith will call #n organization meeting.

HICAGO, March 23.—Victory in the Radium Springs Open, his fourth ! championship of the season, has | extended Craig Wood’s lead in the race | | for top money honors in the Winter polfing campaign. By winnings $300 at Radium Springs, | the Deal, N. J., professional boosted his total winnings to $4,855.08.

Kampfer, crack German grappler and Graeco-Roman champion of Eu- | rape, will appear in one of the three 30-minute preliminaries, opposing George Vassell, Greek matman. Joe Cox; Kansas City hefty, will oppose Frank Judson, another ex-hero here, and Karl Davis, former wrestling captain of Ohio State, will tackle Marshall Blackstock in the the other prelims. ‘The feature match promises much in the way of tumbling, grimacing and ac- tion. Coleman, barely standing over § feet, is the game's only exponent o{ the feet-first flying tackle. His vorite trick is to hurl humelr dogs nm. at the jaw of his rival. Dusek stoops to anything but wrestling. The first bout will get under way at 8:30 o'clock. Women with paying es- corts will, as usual, be admitted free. Twenty-five cents will be charged chil- dren under 16. ALL TO CORBETT’S WIDOW Former Heavy Champion Also Named Her Executrix in Will. NEW YORK, March 23 (#).—The will of James J.

LOUISVILLE QUINTET NOW TOURNEY CHOICE St. Xavier Semsation in Catholic Title Event Despite Illness o Robs It of Coach. By the Associated Press. 'HICAGO, March 23.—One barrage of fleld goals in one engagement today marked the Tigers of St. Xavier, Louisville, Ky., as the team to beat for the National Cathelic High | School basket ball championship. Minus the masterminding of their coach, Bob Schuhmann, bedridden with an attack of influenza, the Tigers soared into a prohibitive favorites’ role last night by submerging the St. Thomas Cadets of St. Paul, 38 to 14, with one of the sweetest scoring combinations ever witnessed at the 10-year-old tour- nament. They meet St. Patrick's of Chicago, the defending title holder, in the second round Friday, and no one gives the champs a chance. Clff Haendiges, a towering center of 6 feet 3 inches, led the victorious assault that sent the spectators away last night m&h St. Xavier their pick to win the le. St. Patrick, which romped through fast field last year, defeated Gibault High of Vincennes, Ind., 30 to 23, in the opening game of the tournament, but ‘was far less impressive. St. Mary's of Huntington, Ind., which survived defeating St. Joseph of Cairo, 1L, in the third game last night, ranked a5 one of the'darkest of dark horses.
