S Dengis PORTS. THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, Challenges Marathon Sensation : Speedboat Stars BHARG[S KELLEY ] Loer Tuning pfor Shvine Regatta Here Next Month 1S DUCKING ISSUE Sees Proposed Coast Trip as Excuse to Pass Up stiff Test Here. BY ROD THOMAS. CHALLENGE to Johnny Kel- ley, sensational young runner who won the Boston Patriots day marathon, was flung last night by Pat Dengls, Welshman of Baltimore, who finished second to Kelley in the world-famous Beantown llop April 19. flDggzuvnchauenge accompanied his entry application for the fourth annual Evening Star race for the National A. A. U. championship, to | be run on June 1. | Kelley, it is said, may forego Ii crack at the national title to run in | a marathon at San Diego, Calif., a | race that could add nothing to his | reputation but one that presents an | opportunity to see a great hunk of America at no expense. COI-.S'. pro= moters are offering him this induce- i ment. | Pat Minces No Words. HE same proposition came to Dengis and promptly Wwas turned down. “I want that national title” ex- plained Dengis, “but I want to beat Kelley in winning it. He beat me at Boston but he never will see the day when he can do it again and he knows it. The same day The Wash- ington Star race is run there will be one at San Diego and Kelley is going out there where he will have only a | bunch of plugs to beat. The class of the country will be at Washington ! and as winner of the Boston mara- | thon that’s where he belongs. If he | doesn’'t show, he’s ducking the issue.” | Dengis' defeat at Boston he laya} to a stitch in his side, an injury he thought at first was a heart pain. | ‘The writer saw that race and for the | last several miles the transplanted | Welshman plainly was in distress With his head bent sideward and | downward and one side pulled in, he | moved along with an awkward gait | that hardly was human. Hurt Passing Johnny. | “x GOT the stitch at the fourteenth mile,” he said, “and thought for | a bit my heart had sprung. But | I felt too strong for this to be the | trouble and kept on. The pain hit | me, by the way, just as I turned on | some heat to pass Kelley.” Dengis has moved to the forefront in marathon running only during toe | last year. To win the Port Chester, | N. Y., race of 193¢ he ran one of | the fastest marathons (26 miles 385 yards) on record. His time was| 2:31:30, which was six seconds under | the all-time Olympic record estab- | lished by Juan Zabala of Argentina | in winning the world contest at Los Angcles in 1932. Also last year he ended the reign | of Bill Agee, former national mara- thon and national 15-mile champion, in Washington distance running when he won the Playground De- partment-Takoma Citizens' Independ- | ence Day 10-mile gallop. Excepting The Star's contest, Agee for seven years had won every important dis- tance event held here. EPISCOPAL IN FRONT | ORANGE, Va, May 11—With Capt. | Hoxton leading the way with victories in the 100, 220 and quarter, Episcopal High came through to down Wood- berry Forest, 66-51, here today in | their annual dual meet. Hoxton shattered two meet records when he negotiated the 100 yards in 10 flat and the 220 in 224. UNBEATEN NINES TIE CHESTERTOWN, Md.,, May 11 (®). —Washington and Lee—undefeated in the Southern Conference base ball race—and Washington College—unde- feated in the Maryland Intercollegiate League—battled to an 8-8 tie here today in a game packed with thrills. The game was called at the end of the ninth to give the Generals time to make connections for their return to ‘Washington. CARD RACKETERS SCORE Catholic University's tennis team conquered Western Maryland’s rack- eters, 5-4, yesterday on the C. U. courts. The Cards and Terrors split even in the singles, each with three wins, but C. U. took two of | the three doubles. DEVITT PREP BLANKED BALTIMORE, Md., May 11.—With JOHN SASNETT, Young but erperienced Washington speedboat driver, is among gatta here June the entrants in the Shrine Re- 9. He and his brother Ed have been participating in regattas hereabout for sev- eral years and have won many honors. John is a senior at George Washington University. TWELVE BOWLING REGORDS BEATEN No Class Escapes in City Tourney—Purdy’s 447 Is Outstanding. AKING a wholesale raid on former high marks, Capital | bowlers brought the twenty- fifth Washington City Duck- pin Association tournament to an amazing finish at Columbia alleys where 12 all-time records and three ties were established in the various classes. No division missed acquiring a new mark. A clean sweep was made in Class C. In the C singies, in which the title still is to bg decided by a roll-off, Ollie Clark and George Simms tied with 401 tc dash into the discards the former mark held by Charlie Holbrook, The Evening Star shooter, who in the :929 tournament at the Coliseum rolled 394. Totaling 1,809, cracked the Class C team record of 1,775 held by Washington Canoe No. 1. Ed Brooks and Harry Whiting of the Masonic League took the doubles with 753, topping by 20 pins the former mark of 733 rolled by Wesley Miltner and Allison in 1933. George Acker- man, another Mason, totaled 1,122 in the all-events to top Bob Chalfonte’s | 1934 mark of 1,103. Incidentally the Holy Comforter team rolled 651, the highest single team game of the| Purdy’s Score Is Tops. tourney. UT the outstanding performance B was the 447 set snot by Clarence Purdy of the Government Printing Office in Class B doubles. It was the highest ever rolled in the Spring meet. Purdy and Charlie Young captured second place with 754. Ray Watson 3nd Bill Reeser, Bureau of Standards, equaled the Class B doubles mark of 756, which was shared by Charlie O'Connell and Al McDonald, Pete Metrakos and Nick Chaconas. The silver anniversary tournament hardly was a night old when Irving Billhimer scored 431 in Class A sin- gles to batter the 428 established in 1932 by Charley Walson and tied by Astor Clarke last season. Two Southeast stars, Harry Scott and Harry Brown, hung up & record for Class D doubles with 727. The former mark of 707 was held by Eck- ert and Willlams. The second Class D mark went to Ben Seigel in all- events with 1,097, the former recard being 1,085 scored by John Fish last season. The association will have to shell out $5 13 times for tripleheaders and 104 bucks for doubles, according to Secretary Arville Ebersole, who is serving his tenth year as secretary of the association which, on the whole, had one of its most successful seasons.

NORTHRUP has an interesting article on end-game play in a recent issue of the | Newark, N. J. Evening News, in | which he asserts that chess had ad- ! vanced a thousand years during the last two months He refers to the recent tournament at Moscow, Russia, | and says the Soviet players have shown a sort of fourth dimension to | the great masters “who knew it a]l."; They let the other fellows shove out | the QP openings up to such and such | a move and then took charge by a | Isort of unorthodox, ante-middle | game start on the real middle game. | Speaking of end-game play, North- rup says you cannot learn it; you must have it in you; you can sharpen | your ability by playing over games of | the masters.

Mar- T shall that he has decided that the championship of the United States, which title he has held for 25 years, should be competed for an- nually in tournament play, certainly is interesting reading to chess play- ers. It is what they have been con- tending for. There are a half dozen or more players who want the oppor- tunity of playing for the title. Mar- shall says he has turned the matter over to the board of governors of the Marshall Chess Club, of which he is a director, and that the governors have announced that the first tourna- ment will be hela in the Fall of 1935 at the Marshall Chess Club in New York. He says he will play in the tournament. The present action of Marshall agrees with the suggestion of a New England chess editor, made at least a year ago, that Marshall be given an opportunity to withdraw his claim to the title in order that there be & tournament. » MARINEIGNITION Battery or Magneto Installations!

In fact, James Mulroy, executive secretary of the National Outboard Association, pre- dicts the affair, which will offer six outboard tests, will attract the largest gath- ering of these drivers ever as- sembled.

N ADDITION to the pollution which the Potomac is carrying, it now is burdened with a bad load of mud. Recent heavy rains again caused the stream to be- come an eyesore to the many hun- dreds of local anglers. There are a lot of fairly good-sze perch in our waters, and the rockfish, pan size, were just beginning to be caught when the muddy water devel- oped. The rock are or were being caught from Hains Point to Chaln | Bridge. It probably will be a week | before the river is clear, but Joe Fletcher informs us that many perch are being caught in shallow water. He also said that a few herring are being snagged and expects a run of these bony little bellows this week. | Local brook trout anglers did not fare so well last week. One reported | that on a recent trip to Virginia| he caught a number of trout, but | returned all because they were un- dersized. Other anglers fishing in| report they did not get even a strike. However, there still are plenty of good-size trout in the streams of our | neighboring States and this sport can | be enjoyed until June 30 in Maryland | and Virginia, and until July 31 in West Virginia. N NEARBY salt water areas cold weather has delayed fishing. Hardhead, or croakers, have ap- peared in large numbers in the bay | and {ts tributaries, but comparatively lfler' have been landed by hook and Capt. Nate Dave at Solomons Island is reported to have caught about 25 of these fish recently, and Capt. W. T. Shorter of Benedict, fishing in the Patuxent River off that | place, landed about eight in shallow | water last Sunday. Frank Del Vecchio reports he did | not have any success last Sunday fishing off North Beach. According | to Bruce Emerson, who has a Sum- mer home at Mason's Beach, on | Herring Bay, hardhead are being caught in the mouth of the creek | leading into Deale, Md. Capt. Harry Woodburn at Solo- Island reports that Honga River, located on the eastern side of the bay back of Hoopers Island, is the place where hardhead have com- menced to strike in their usual style. He said that one angler landed 95 of these fish in this water one day last week. Capt. George Bowen, also of Sol- omons Island, well-known caterer to the wants of anglers, also informs us | that hardhead are being caught in Honga River, that some small sea trout | are being landed across the bay and that several blues were taken in the |net of a commercial fishermen off | Cedar Point.

CORE of the game played in the last championship tournament of the Capital City Chess Club be- tween Stark and Flynn. Stark won a pawn on his seventh move. Flynn worked up an attack which looked as if it would realize some material. Stark cleverly met the attack, but not until Flynn had won back his pawn. Stark manipulated two bishops and a rook and forced the attack, and | Flynn quickly surrendered. Flynn should have played K to Q2 on his twenty-sixth move.

It became a double when Ma- nush barely missed a one-hand catch. After Hayworth sacrificed, Rogell rode home on Owen’s hoist to Sington. With passes the Nationals jammed the sacks in the seventh, but two were out and Auker relieved Hatter to get rid of Powell. The best Jake could do was pop to the catcher. In the ~ighth, though, the Washington band used two walks to deadlock the game. Travis seized Lary's bat to get the first walk off Auker.

They are reported to be so numerous that they can be seen tumbling out of each breaking wave, with schools covering 2 nfiles in area. Some of the captains are sald to be anchoring their boats so that the fishermen can drop their lures over the side for the blues to snag themselves. These fighting, ani- mated chopping machines are reported to be everywhere, inside and outside the inlet, and all parties are returning with large catches. Also the surf casters are said to be having a great time landing blues and channel bass from the north side of the inlet. Joe Turner, well-known local wrestling and boxing promoter, fished at Oregon Inlet two weeks ago today. On this trip he did not have much luck, just four channel bass, so he made a return trip last week end, ac- companied by Mr. and Mrs. George Miss Florence Feass. On this trip there was a different story to tell. They landed 156 blues, weigh- ing from four to six pounds, and five channel bass. Turner landed two forty-two pounders of this species and each of the other members of the party landed one, Norman Kednig and Lieut. C. D. Palmer, U. S. N., accompanied by their wives, returned last week from Oregon Inlet, reporting great sport. They fished only one day, on account of & northeaster, but they landed 112 blues, weighing from five to six and one-half pounds. They also picked up three channel bass running in weight from 25 to 35 pounds. The United States Weather Bureau informs us that today should be a good day for the anglers at Oregon Inlet. This region was visited by showers Thursday and Friday, but yesterday the weather was fair and that there were no prospects of bad weather for today. James D. Jarman at Ocean City, Md., writes that the fish have not startea biting there. He said a few sea bass have been caught, but that the blues and other species have not commenced to take bait. “As soon as the blues and other fish start to bite I will let you have the news” Jarman said. He added that it is cool at Ocean City now, and that he thought some warm days will start the fish biting. ACCOUNTS NINE VICTOR.
