MEETS TODAY TO NAME | 36 OFFICERS Routine Business in Order for City Body but District League Is Due for Peppery Session—Busy Week Ahead. I groundwork for its Spring tour- nament the Washington City Duckpin Association will hold the earliest meeting in its history today in the oak room of the Raleigh Hotel at 3 o'clock. As a starter in the direction of & record entry, Vernon Chappel, mana- ger of Chappel's Billiard Parlor, who has a team in the Georgetown Com- mercial League, yesterday sent Arville Ebersole, secretary of the association, a paid entry for the forthcoming event. Generally a cut and dried affair with the annual election of officers among the matters to be disposed of, some new promotional plans are ex- pected to be ironed out. One in particular will be The Evening Star yuletide tournament, that ranks as the city’s outstanding individual event. While the city association is ex- pected to sail through calm waters a meeting of the District League di- Tectors, immediately following, likely will be peppery. Protesting vigorously the new ruling of the major circuit to allow only two stars to a team, the bowlers are asking for new consideration. A plan Will be put before the directors whereby the lowest averaged team in the circuit will be bolstered to a mark of 585, or the equivalent of five 117-average bowlers. Under this plan it is be- lieved that the league would be well balanced with eight teams and hold its place as the strongest of all bowl- ing leagues.

F YOU'VE played base ball in the District the chances are you've been under contract to Vic Gauzza, 43-year-old leader of more than a score of leagues during 29 years of affilia- tion with sandlot competition here. Ranked with the best amateur diamond cities, Washington owes much of its prestige to the wiry little man who has stuck to the task of building the Districts si- mon-pure pastime into a sturdy structure, The Capital experienced its greatest sandlot base ball year this season, and behind it was Gauzza, who presided over five Sunday and two week-day loops. Receiving his baptism in base ball at the age of 14 while work ing in a sports goods store here in 1906, Gauzza managed and pitched the Shapiro A. C. to top honors in the Commercial League. Fol- lowing years found the tireless 1 twirler with Moses, S. Kann Sons Co. and Woodside teams and in 1910 Vic joined up with the D. N. Walford Club along with such stars as Walter Herrell, Clyde Richmond and Forrest Thompson. Joe Engel, Washington Senators® scout, pitched for R. P. Andrews in the same loop. For the next 10 years Gauzza played with the National A. C, Indian Office, Takoma, Virginia A. C. and Potomac Council. Dur- ent and city-wide titles. Playing for him were Ralph “Monk"” Fraser, Al Schneider, Finney Kelly, Frank Hudson, Lefty Winegarden, “Speed” Mallet, Walter Beall, Joe McCoy, Frank Watt, Bernie Pitz- gerald, Joe Tuccl, Ed Sley, “Mac” McCarthy, Dick Willlams, “Squir- rel” Charles, Joe McCann, Freddie VIC GAUZZA.

Running well back of the pace set by the favored Whopper, from the | stable of S.

As the jockeys dismounted in front of the judges' stand, first “Smokie” Saunders, rider of Howard, and then Jimmy Hunter, who piloted Whopper, climbed the stairs to the stewards. Stewards Ignore Protest. AUNDERS claimed Good Goods roughed him as he pulled past be- tween the three-eighths pole and half-mile poles. Hunter asserted Good Goods pinched him off in the stretch run just when Whopper was making a bid. The stewards disallowed both protests. Gov. Sholtz took fourth money a length back of Howard.

George, 17, is now at Tech and will go out for base ball and basket ball this year. Dick Lanahan, who will pitch for the Griffs today, was under the guiding hand of Gauzza in 1929 when he hurled the Vic Sport Shop team to the title in the Cap- ital City League. Otts Zahn, former George Washington Uni- veristy star; Bill Moore, Frank Carter, Dicky FPitzgerald, Bobby McVean, who later shone for Catholic University; Jody Barry, Danny Kessler, Charley McVean, Fred Brew and Tony Panella, along with Lanahan, comprised the championship club. Only once did Vic take a crack at the professional end of sports. In 1931 he managed the Vic Sport Shop pro basket ball team, which lcst the District title to Skinker Bros. Eagles in a 2-out-of-3 game series. Joe Sweeney, Dick Streeks, Jake Coldblatt, Tubba Farrell, Walter Morris and Les McMennian swished the cords for him that season. Although Gauzza has managed about a dozen championship Dis- trict grid teams, his name is syn- onmous with base ball to sandlot sports followers. Notable among his foot ball teams was the 140-pound National A. C., which ruled the turf here during 1912-1915. Vic's still in the sports goods business—a partner in the Atlas Sport Shop—and now he's as much a part of amateur sandlot as home plate.
