1 S PORTS. THE _EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., SATURDAY, MARCH 23, 1935. SPORTS. D. C. Stages Three-Ring Bowling Circus : Swimming Teams in Warm Siruggle NATIONAL EVENT HOLDS SPOTLIGHT Megaw and Dub Sweep- stakes Fill Out Big Program | Today and Tonight. ASHINGTON'S bowling show today and tonight will resemble a three-ring circus. Occupying the cen- ter circle will be the eighth annual tournament of the National Duckpin Bowling Congress, flanked by the Red Megaw Sweepstakes and the Bill ‘Wood Dub event. Capt. Howard C. Clark, Assistant EngineerCommissioner of the District, will officlate at the opening of the national tournament at the Arcadia. Assisting him will be Chris Graham, Baltimore’s pioneer bowling organizer, and John Y. Dennis of Norfolk, sec- ond vice president of the congress. Somewhere in the background will be George L. Isemann, the man who after week’s of tireless effort has given the Capital its second national tournament and one that promises to be the finest ever held. Ten teams, representing four cities, | are scheduled to get the country's blue ribbon duckpin attraction under way. Washington will have six teams rolling, Norfolk two, Baltimore one and Raleigh, N. C., one. Arcadias Are Strong. RCADIA will be the only District | team shooting in the champion- | ship division, but its wpno(ch: rollers, who include the redoubtable | Paul Harrison, Buck Share and Ise- | mann, should spill enough maples to | set up some sort of mark for the‘ parade of all-star teams to shoot at. | Raleigh's first tournament team, | the Carolina Bowling Club, is com- | posed of P. T. Stone, Congress execu- tive; R. C. Hodge, C. H. Andrews, W. G. Black, J. D. Bland and L. T. Mincey, captain. But probably the | most conspicuous roller of the night will be Leslie Mincey, the 15-year-old youngster, son of the team’s captain, who will pit his skill against the | country’s best in singles. | The Boush Street Alley Team of Norfolk, recently crowned champions | in the Virginia State tournament, | will have such noted Dixie shooters | as Bryce Wagoner, E. L. Johnson, | Harold Griffith, Tom Haralson and Bill Gauer, captain, shooting for na- tional honors. The Red Megaw Sweepstakes is on this afternoon a. the Lucky Strike with the final five games to be rolled at Georgetown at 8 pm. Some 30 Bal- | timore, Annapolis and District experts | were expected to compete. Orletsky Out in Front. RANK ORLETSKY will strive to hold first place as the second block of the Bill Wood Dub- | stakes is contested at the King Pin. | ‘The Sanico League shooter, with a | set of 638, grabbed a 20-pin lead over J. E. Ruppert, Agriculture roller, last week in the opening block at the | Lucky Strike. Sam Suger, D. G. S. League, is holding third place with 614. Clar- ence Appler of the Times is fourth | with an even 600. ‘The National Capital League flag race promises to wind up with lots of | excitement. By winning two games | from the leading Sholl's team lnst\ night the King Pins moved to within a game of first place. Jim Burns of the Paramount team | won the Motion Picture League's | sweepstakes, at the Boulevard, with ! 608, which included a 48-pin handi- | cap.

CONACHER IS BEST IN HOCKEY LEAGUE ‘Washington: Al- Scores 57 Points to Lead Loop for Second Year in a Row. Near All-Time Mark. ONTREAL, March 23 (®)— Chuck Conacher, the big right- winger of the Toronto Maple Leafs, who is considered the hardest | 29! shooter in hockey, has written his name on the National League’s honor roll above those of such famous stars as Jock Malone and Newsy Lalonde of the Montreal Canadiens, Babe Dye of Toronto, Bill Cook of the New York Rangers and Howie Morenz, former Canadian ace, who now wears & Chicago uniform. Conacher banged the puck into various enemy nets for 36 goals dur- ing the 1934-35 season, the final offi- elal statistics reveal, and earned 21 assists for a total of 57 points. That enabled him to lead the league in scoring for the second successive year, a feat no other player had accom- plished since the circuit was organ- ized in 1917, although five had re- peated scoring triumphs. This season's total, 5 points better than last year’s, put Conacher near the top of the all-time star scorers. BROWN STARTS WORK D. C. Heavy Prepares for Detroit Bout Friday With Louis. Natie Brown, District heavyweight boxing champion, today was to open training quarters in Detroit, where he will finish preparations for his scheduled 10-round bout next Fri- day with Joe Louis, sensational col- ored knockout artist. Brown left Washington early yester- day afternoon. He will be joined in Detroit later by Billy McCarney, his manager, and Harry Raskin, who will work with McCarney in his corner.

SCHOOL GOLFERS LOOKTO BIG YEAR Arrange Schedule and Pick Bill Dettweiler as Head of Association. ITH their schedules set, Washington’s scholastic golfers today began prepa- rations for one of the most pretentious Spring seasons in local history. ‘The season will open for the school- boys on April 2, when Devitt Prep and Georgetown Prep clash in the first match of the Private School League. Roosevelt and Central will open the public interhigh series April 6, accord- ing to schedules announced last night at the second annual meeting of the District Scholastic Golf Association at the Washington Hotel.

' DIAMOND, NOT NINE, WORRIES W. AND M. Work on Stadium Brings Shift of Playing Field—Veterans on Hand for Team. | By the Associated Press. ILLIAMSBURG, Va., March 23. —What with this and that, youthful Bill Scott is growing himself a fine crop of figurative gray hairs as he whips the Willlam and Mary base ball team into shape for its opening games with Washington and Lee here Monday and Tuesday. It's not so much the caliber of the talent, although Bill isn’t satisfied altogether with the playing material, as it is the condition of the playing field. As workmen prepare for the erec- tion of the new stadium on Cary Field, they have three times moved the loca- tion of the diamond with disastrous results to the infield. Finally a spot has been picked. Veterans are on hand for all posi- tions save two of the outfield jobs. Twenty-two games have been listed as follows: March 252 3, Dartmoul Vlrli Wlshinlwn and ue Amll o, ‘me oL ;. SSotie: 35 vk 57 Virainte, ot Hambden-Sydney (penging).

PETERSBURG, Fla.—Johnny Allen, New York Yankee's right- hander, wants to tear up his dollar-a-year contract and get a real one. He claims he already has shown that he has regained his pitching skill and that it's time the club indicated just how much morey he may expect for his 1935 duties. LAKELAND, Fla—Bruises of the 1934 world series ached afresh today following a 12-5 lacing the Detroit Tigers handed the world champion St. Louis Cardinals yesterday. Paul Dean and Bill Walker were nicked for 186 hits, six off Dean in five innings and the rest off Walker in the last three. The Cards got to Clyde Hatter for four runs in the third, but then were bottled up until the eighth, when they scored one more. Hatter yielded five hits in five innings and Joe Sullivan two in four. Detroit takes on the Dodgers today. LOS ANGELES.—Vernon Washing- ton and Ray Radcliff have the inside track as Al Simmons’ mates in the Chicago Whitz Sox outfield, but the 32-year-old rookie, John (Jocko) Con- | 1an, is not out of the running. Conlan, a Chicagoan, was picked up off the semi-professional fleld late last | season when the Sox were in dire need of an outfielder. His fielding left little to be desired, but his hitting wasn’t so good. He has hit opportunely in train- ing games, however, and yesterday contributed a rousing double in his only time at bat against Pittsburgh. Ferrell Due for Test. ARASOTA, Fla.—The Red Sox will let Wes Ferrell do seven innings against the world champion Cards today if he feels so minded. Manager Joe Cronin reports his legs in much better shape. He is cov- edrirlng more ground with greater ease aily. WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., March 23 (#).—Manager Rogers Hornsby of the St. Louis Browns apparently is bent on shaping up his best possible attacking combination for opening of the American League season, judging by the various position changes he has tried during exhibition games. Yesterday, when the Browns beat the House of David, 9 to 1, Hornsby ‘plflyed Harland Clift, regular third sacker, at second base, and Ollie tried in various training games. NEW ORLEANS, March 23 (#).— Mel Harder, ace of the Cleveland In- dians’ pitching staff, who hasn't taken part in any of the exhibition games so far this Spring, may get a little exercise today. Manager Wal- ter Johnson said he might use Harder in the sixth game of the series with the New Orelans Pelicans. Lloyd Brown probably will share the job with Harder. ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla.—The Ath- letics today started on a long and winding road which will end at the home grounds in Philadelphia next month. Stopping here for two days to play the Giants, they move again Mon- day to Jacksonville for another meet- ing with the New Yorkers. Then they play two-day stands in Birmingham, Chattanooga, Atlanta, Charlotte and Richmond. FENCERS TO CONTEST Public Invited to Watch “¥Y” and Marines Tonight. Central Y. M. C.

ITA AUGUSTERFER, outstanding feminine swimmer of the Dis | trict zrea for some time, achieved more honors last night, when she hung up a new women's | 100-yard free-style mark, fashing over the Shoreham course in 1:082, the fastest century ever turned in by either a visiting or resident woman swimmer in the District. She broke her own three-year record by 33; seconds in defending her chlmpmn- ship.

ETHLEHEM, Pa, March 23.— Eastern and Southern wres- tlers sat on the sidelines today and wondered who could stop the march of Oklahoma’s mighty grapplers in the National Collegiate A. A. wrestling championships. A session which began in the early afternoon yesterday and wound up early this morning reduced the origi- nal field of 139 to the 32 semi-finalists in eight divisions and just half of the survivors reprzsented Oklahoma insti- tutions. ‘The defending champions from Ok- lahoma A. and M. led the fleld with six survivors. Oklahoma University had four :nen left; Southwestern Ok- lahoma Teachers presented another quartet of semi-finals and Northeast Oklahoma Teachers two. Illinois Checks Monopoly. REAKING into this monopoly came Illinois, Big Ten champions, with iive men, while the East was left with six grapplers, representing as many different colleges. The South had only one survivor, Hugo Bonina, ‘Washington and Lee heavyweight. Indiana with three men and Iowa State with one gave the Midwest fur- ther representation. The Eastern col- leges were Lehigh, Columbia, Penn State, Rutgers, St. Lawrence and Haverford. Two severe injuries marked the all- day grappling. Doermer Browning, Oklahoma A. and M. 165-pounder, suffered a broken leg in his bout with Port of Oklahoma U., and Olden Gillum of Indians fractured a hand in winning his first round match in the same division and had to de- fault his next match. CARDS, TERPS BATTLE. Catholic University and Maryland today were to provide the Capital's first touch of foot ball this year when the squads were to meet at College Park. While the Cardinals will have many of their potential regulars available, the Terps, with most of the probable varsity timber participating in Spring sports, will rely chiefly on last year's frosh. BOYS’' CLUB ALUMNI WIN. Bw. ltg::l;v:!l Club Vdulrlfiy mthe 21 to 18, last night in the feature basket ball game of the annual Par- ent-Teacher night at the C street club. In other games the Boys’ Club staff downed the Northeast Boys' Club staff, 31 to 16, and the Boys’ Club Blues routed Merrick, 17 to 6. BASKETERS HONORED. MARTINSBURG, W. Va, March 23—Kenneth Rentch and Jackie Clohan, center and guard, have been elected honorary co-captains of the 1935 Martinsburg High School basket ball team. INDOOR POLO TILT CLOSE. EAST ORANGE, N. J, March 23 ()—The 110th Field Artillery of Maryland defeated the 112th Fleld polo match at the East Arm- ayhnnuz.nsmq.m SAUER TO JOIN: rAcms |5 20 Years Ago IN THE STAR RTISTIC and financial reforms are necessary for professional base ball, according to a state- ment made today by Ban Johnson, president of the American League. Included in Johnson's “new deal” scheme are the closing of gates for the coming season in some 50 parks and abolition of Spring training. Padlocks would be distributed among five or six minor leagues, according to Johnson's idea, while the American and National Leagues would be affected principally by the new training system. Appar- ent lack of interest in smaller towns and the chilly receptions, | both at the gate and by the weather man, in Spring training camps are given as the reasons for the proposals. Tommy Lowe, clever Washington lightweight boxer, rallied in the fifteenth and final round of a fight with Danny Ferguson last night, at the Ardmore Club, to win the de- cision. The bout was about even until the last round, when Lowe opened an attack which had Fer- guson groggy. With Walter Johnson and Joe Boehling on the mound, Washing- ton defeated the University of Vir- ginia in a Spring practice game at the Charlottesville, Va., training camp today. The collegians made only three hits in the six-inning ex- hibition. Manager Clark Griffith, however, is disappointed with the showing of Ramiro Seiglie, highly- touted Cuban inflelder. Seiglie is not ready for the big leagues yet, according to Griffith. Despite 8 381 set by O'Neil, the Woodmen of the World lost all three games of a Southeast Duck- pin League match last night #o the Southeast Stars. GIRL IS MEET SURPRISE Helen Stephens Is Triple Victor, Beating Stella Walsh. ST. LOUIS, March 23 (#)—A lanky, long-striding unknown, Helen Ste- phens, Fulton, Mo., high school girl, won three events in the National A. A. U. women's track and fleld meet here to steal the show from interna- tionally known stars. Miss Stephens, who said she “ran a little two years ago,” but started se- rious training last week, climaxed her efforts with first place in the standing broad jump, the third event in which she was entered. A leap of 8 feet 8 inches brought victory. Other Stephens victories were scored in the 50-meter dash and in the shot- put. Miss Stephens outsprinted Stella Walsh, Cleveland Olympic star, to break the tape in the dash. The final event, the basket ball throw, was won by Miss Walsh. It was her second first place of the eve- ning. The heave was 96 feet 514 inches. ZAHARIAS MEETS SZABO. e Zaharias, victorious over Georg Emil Dusek last Thursday,s will be|sport . granted a respite from Duseks next week and will wrestle Sandor Szabo of Hungary in the fea- ture exhibition on Promoter Joe Turner’s weekly wrestling card at the ‘Washington Auditorium.

Picard, former pro at the Charles- | ton Country Club, required only 208 | strokes for the first 54 holes over the wind-swept Wappoo course, but close on his heels was Harold (Jug) Mc- Spaden of Kansas City, who yester- day hopped into second place by tying “Picard’s par-equaling 71 for a total of 211. Paul Runyan of White Plains, N.| Y.; Horton Smith of Oak Park, I | and Wiffy Cox of Brooklyn turned in sensational par-cracking rounds. Runyan, the P. G. A. champion, carded a 35, one under par, going out and then grew hotter, coming home in 31, four under standard num- bers. On the incoming route he had 2 pair of birdies and an eagle. Smith and Cox showed 67s for the third round. START SOCCER SERIES German and U. 8. Teams to Play Opening Tilt Tomorrow.

HAMPDEN-SYDNEY, Va., March 23 (#).—1t his weakened pitching staff can hold the opposition fairly well in check, Coach Charlie Bernier believes his heavy-hitting Hampden-Sydney base ball team will build up a good work:og margin for the twirlers. His only veteran, Capt. Clarence (“Soup”) Campbell, can pitch with the best of the Old Dominion's col- lege moundsmen, but with a 23-game schedule in the offing, he may need more support than the untried sopho- more hurlers can give him. ‘Tanbark and Turf LEANED here and there: The Fairfax Hunt closes its season Saturday with a gala vea dance following the final meeting, sched- uled that morning at Utterback’s store at 10 o'clock . the Little Grand National timber races on April 20 will be contested over a new course in Maryland . . . because of dissatisfac- tion” expressed by spectators, riders and owners, the Brooklandville course on the Emerson place is to be aban- doned . . . new grounds are the Willilam R.
