G ter of the I-Lost-to-Londos Club, but though the big Greek failed to toss the litiic Creek last night at Griffith Stadium, he created easily the most dramatic mat exhibitica ever staged in this hamlet. The match lasted 1 hour and 8 min- utes, the longest period Londos ever has been extended here. The Londos profile, which never had been seriously dented by an opponent’s elbows, was very much marred and dented. Londos, who never previously allowed himself to be body slammed to the mat, was body slammeed often and soundly. And to cap it all Londos, who had yet to grovel in the dust of the infield out of the ring, was bodily hurled to the mat and ingloriously flying tackled from the ring onto home plate. EORGE ZAHARIAS today was added to the Washington chap- .. mat history was in the making at the hour and 5-minute mark. Zaharias clamped on a series of flying mares and backdrops and spectators swarmed from the grandstand to the edge of the mat. Londos appeared groggy. Zaharias then picked him up and slammed the bronzed Grecian chassis of Jeems to the canvas. A fly- ing tackle followed and Londos was out of the ring. Referee Cyclone Burns counted up to 8 and Londos still was standing on home plate. As he approached nearer Zaharias eluded the referee and launched himself in a flying tackle. He struck Londos glancingly, sent him back, and himself hit the dust. ‘When they entered the ring again Londos appeared stronger. He went to work picking up big George and hurl- ing him down. Finally he climbed aboard. It was all over. preliminaries were interesting. Ernie Dusek continued his pell- mell pace by tossing Frank Spears in the semi-final in 20}, minutes. Pat O'shocker disposed of Dick Raines in another good match in 24 minutes. Abe Coleman flattened Andy Brown in 18 mmutes and George Kotsonaras and Paul Jones went to a 30-minute draw. Twenty per cent of the proceeds of last night's show went to the Washing- ton food fund. which profited to the extent of $756.54. ‘H'—Anns Blandford and Wilsos n.

DDIE FOSTER, third baseman of the Washington ball team, is slated to return to the line- up against Chicago, after an absence of two months because of an attack of typhoid. ‘Washington defeated Cleveland, Miss Esther Sasscer tutored giris' “Golfing,” Uni UT in the City of Chicago, where good golfers grow on nearly every bush and where more golf is played than at a dozen St. Andrew's, a > pair of brothers with a weather eye to the future of golf have started something new and unique in the way of a golf publication. The brothers i Graffis—Herb and Joe—publishers of the magazine Golfdom for several years past, have put out a new mag- azine that is getting a lot of readers among the divot diggers of the Na- ticn and getting a lot of laughs for | the spice and ginger that is put into the publication. But the main fea® ture of the new magazine, called | Golfing, is that it is distributed ab- solutely free of cost to some 300,000 xo}!m throughout the Nation, an ! idea quite new in a field wherein magazines of the higher price have dominated or many years. ‘The Graffis brothers have sunk the bank roll on the theory that a golf magazine, distributed free to a half million or more persons for six months every year, will have a cir- culation power far beyond that of any similar publication. They base | their hope of gain on the theory that any national advertiser of golf goods cannot afford to miss this large po- tential market. The idea is not new que Publication Devoted to Game’s Humor and | Circulated Free, Makes a Hit 10-5, amassing 13 hits, - Chick Gan- dil, John Henry, Frank Laporte and Howard Shanks led the Nationals’ attack. Pred Clarke, ‘of the Pitts- burgh Pirates, m for a year, has returned to the ond, and is surprising by playing in his former fine style. Jack Hurley, Cornell’ Co. third baseman, still is one of the best amateur ball players in the city. in its entirety, but it is new in the golf field. Devoted more to fun and “kid- ding” than to serious discussions of stance, swing and the more sedate side of the game, Golfing specializes in getting laughs from golfers. They get it free, and human nature being what it is, they read it, and laugh. Tommy Armour, former Congres- sional pro, writes the leading story in the current issue, a yarn devoted to the thought that tension and worry never_has and never will win a major championship. Tommy claims that relaxation and mental complacency have done mare to ald him in piling up his impressive rec- ord in international golf than any other factor, and that if he ever starts worrying as an important championship nears its end, he is through. “I can't win if I try,” he says. The Graffis brothers brought some- thing new to golf when they pro- duced Golfdom, a magazine for greenskeepers and club managers, some years back. They have gone even further with Golfing, with its lack of seriousness, its punch and its free circulation feature. Each month every golf club in the United States receives a batch of the mag- azines for free distribution to their members. And Golfing is getting across. If they can “sell” the adver- tisers as they have sold the golfing public by and large, those energetic Graffis boys have done something in a big way. points, Randall School y won the junior high school track and fleld championships of Divisions 10-13, held in Walker Sta- dium.

Crook sank a 10-footer to keep the match alive on the third hole and won the play-off on the fifth, where Nee pushed his drive to the hillside and then was short with his pitch.
