C, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1935, SPORTS %% A__ Central Impresses After Poor Start : Dettweilers Are Champion Runners-Up LATE DRIVE ROUTS WESTERN ELEVEN Gritty Red Team Puts Up Fine Fight in Pointless Opening Half.

We haven't used half our plays o+« We've got to improve, but we will” =it was Billy Richardson, Paul Whe- don and Bill Vermillion, Central High Bchool foot ball players, keeping up & running conversation on the bench late in the fourth quarter—after de- feating Western, 18-0. Hardy Pearce’s pigskinners did re- semble a sandlot eleven out for the first scrimmage of the seascn yester- day for the first half, but only because Dan Ahern’s Red Ralders displayed a8 much grit as a carload of spinach. The Blue battlers, favored to win by almost any margin it pleased, crashed into a light but scrappy team which was whittled down through sheer force as the elevens made their debut in the interhigh school grid series in comparative privacy before 2,500 fans at Westera Stadium. 113 Richardson Opens Drive. BnLY RICHARDSON, Central's Tuffy Leemans, showed the way to his mates and brought them out of the wilderness in the third quarter. Starting at midfield, Richardson smashed through Western's forward wall for a gain of 8 yards and then flipped & scorching pass to Paul ‘Whedon, who was dropped on the 22- | yard line. Johnny Jones picked up 5 more. Richardson then sliced off left tackle, reversed his field and romped 17 yards to score standing up. Charley |, Kline's attempted placement was wide. After the swarthy little veteran led another march to the Red Raiders’ 20-yard line with runs of 9 and 18 yards, Bill Wooten sailed a southpaw pass into the waiting arms of Whedon, who sprinted the remaining 8 yards to score. Richardson’s attempted pass for the extra point was smoth- | ered. Charley Jones, hard-driving guard, and Sam Fox, who may gain a start- ing berth at end by his performance yesterday, collaborated in paving the way for the final touchdown. Scores After Blocking Pass. OHNNY HATCH, one of the leaders in the Western uprising, at- tempted to pass from his own 5-yard line, but Jones tore through to block the heave, which flew into the ham- like hands of Fox on the 1-foot line. | Richardson crashed off left guard to tally. Vermillion's attempted place- ment was wide. ‘Western not only appeared a great defensive team, but also threw a scare into the Central camp in the final period. Morris Snead, running at full speed, lost his balance just as Hatch boomed a 29-yard pass to him over the goal line. Snead was in the clear at the time, but the ball bounded from his anxious arms as he tripped. Snead, Frawley, Hatch, Morse and Beck led Western's valiant defensive | battle. If Western fails to win a series game it will have the satisfaction of | knowing one job was well done.

Of these 1,700,000 are for numbered seats, | most of them valid for the duration of the games. The remairder are in- tended to be sold for the various events each day. Meanwhile, the Olympic Committee reports a steadily increasing demand for season tickets, especially from abroad, with several thousand reserva- | tions having been made already by American, English and French tourist bureaus. 20 YEARS AGO IN THE STAR FIVE of 32 golfers who qualified for this year's annual Presi- dent’s Cup tournament, starting tomorrow at Chevy Chase, are previous champions. They are Messrs. Hughes Oliphant, Morven Thompson, T. A. Clayton, W. G. Peter and Walter R. Tuckerman. Western and Eastern clash in the interhigh series today, with the former in a position to be the surprise team of the season. The Red and White will be represented by one of the fastest and heaviest elevens among the schools. Graves Williams, who scored the only touchdown against Pitt in the Penn game last Saturday, came out of a daze yesterday and was surprised to learn he had con- tributed to Penn's score. A col- lision with the opposing fullback in the early part of the game left him stupefied for the rest of the afternoon. Maryland’s Agges are to play their first game in the series for the State championship this week when they meet St. John’s of An- napolis in their big home game.

Field of 1412 Newton street northeast, a missive of in- terest to all anglers, “We go a-fishing down the bay— Mr. Average Man—by the hundreds, perhaps by the thousands—and we spend a goodly sum and have a glo- rious time. “In the intoxication of anticipation, dreams, hopes, realization, disappoint- ments and more hopes, we enjoy our- selves and never notice the shaky wharf with loose boards and holes fit to break your legs; the wheezy motor spouting evil-smelling odors and dripping grease over siippery floors; hot exhaust pipes that could put you off the job for a month; gas leaks that almost invite sparks from pipes and cigarettes; fire extinguishers—usually one in number—of a miniature size with the tarnish of the sea denoting their undisturbed rest; life preservers of an apparent ancient vintage and scanty number, nicely concealed among the gear boxes; cans, sacks, dunnage in great variety and disar- ray; dingy jugs of doubtful water and germs of & hundred diseases; running lights that by some magic do seem to run; the picturesque attire of the skip- per that makes him look like a hobo; seats and rails vallantly supported by failings fastenings, and the hundred- odd other details that seem to be all in the game. “And then on the way home, when we are tired and grow retrospective and perhaps morbid, we reflect on these things and call ourselves mar- tyrs to the hardships of a great sport. But on the morrow we are ourselves again. “We say we are fools for spending good money for such inefficiency, care- lessness, uncleanliness and lack .gervice as would not be tolerated :u minute in our business or home e. “And then, occasionally, we go out in & boat that is clean, everything in place, with a snappy, clean motor, good safety devices, a clean skipper, dressed like an honest working man, and who has the good sense not to take a drink every round, and we fig- ure that perhaps the modern, sound business idea of good equipment and good service for money spent is be- ginning to follow the improved roads to the fishing grounds. “We hope this is true and that the fishing industry will try to avoid a ma- Jor tragedy that might resuit in re- strictive and expensive regulation. “And, like myself, oerhaps others think that columns and broadcasts like yours might crystailize opinion in this matter and help the situation.” Many thanks for your letter, Mr. Field. We are sure that things are turning the way you would like. I know of many new boats that will be in service next year to take the places of the antiquated ones used this sea~ son. We certainly are with you and sure- ly do like a good, seaworthy boat. FOUR GRID LOOP GAMES Four games of the National City Foot Ball League are scheduled for tomorrow at Duffy Stadium and West Potomac Park. At the stadium, American Beer meets the Cardinals at 1 o'clock, and at 3 p.m. the Palace Preps face the Maryland Preps.

U. Prep must face the dismal prospect of playing out its schedule minus the services of its sterling captain, Elkin Franklin, who had his collarbone broken on the first play of the game yesterday, but who played the entire first half before the extent of the injury was discovered. But Georgetown'’s casualties did not stop with Franklin's injury. “Reds” Cullen, sturdy guard, had his chin banged up enough to require five stitches, and it is extremely doubtful that he will face St. Albans in the interprep clash next Friday. Stars Despite Fracture. EVEN with his fracture, Franklin was the standout man on the Garrett Parkers’ team for the first 20 minutes of the game, his running and defensive work alone keeping G. U. in the fight. In fact, Loyola did not come close to scoring until a 70-yard pass produced its first touchdown three minutes before the half ended. It came when Joe Mellendick, most 1| ripping of the visitors’ many ripping backs, tosted a pass from his own line which Jim O’Donnell | snagged on the foe's 20 and carried | U | across the goal line without a break in his stride. after intermission, the host folded up Qcampletcly. the Prepmen’s feeble attempts at | tackling permitted Mellendick, Mc- Carthy and the other backs to run wild, the opposing ball-carriers con- tinually slipping out of the clutches of Joe Gardner’s boys.

HEN the record of the 1935 golf season around Washe ington is written the two young golfing Dettweilers of the Congressional County Club will be revealed as the champion runners- up of the year. Helen and Billy Det- weiler, the former a 20-year-old youngster and the latter 17 years of age, will win golf tournaments some day and plenty of 'em, but for this year at least they have become the champion second-placers. Between them they have been runners-up in five big tournaments and have yet to win a major affair in this year of 1935. Three years ago, when the young man started to shove a ball around Capital courses in respectable figures, Billy Dettweiler looked to be a lad who was going to win a flock of tourna- ments in a hurry. He still has plenty of time to win, but he hasn’t done s0 yet. Instead, he must be satisfied this year with three runner-up tro- phies, for although he was a finalist in three affairs he was licked in all of them. ‘The same situation applied to Sister Helen. This long-hitting pupil of Roland MacKenzie won her way to the final in the Middle Atlantic cham- plonship, premier title tourney of the year in this sector, and was beaten in the final by Mrs. Betty P. Meckley. She alsa carved a path in the final in the Congressional Club champion= ship and lost again. But Helen is planning on a Southern tour during the coming Winter to gain the ex- perience against good golfers which she needs. Along in January she will climb into a car with Dr. and Mrs. L. G. Pray and take off for Miami to play in the Florida tournaments. She probably won't win, but she will get lots of experience and next year will be a better golfer. Younger Brother Coming Along. BEOTHER BILLY started the year by dropping his interscholastie title to Billy Shea, the lanky Congres sional kid who looks as if he is getting ready to go places in golf. The two Billys met in the final and Shea was victorious. They met again in the junior championship final and again the Shea boy put the bee on the Dette weiler kid. But Dettweiler won the Maryland junior and the Maryland scholastic. Billy Dettweiler won his way to the final round in the Chevy Chase tour~ nament, one of the biggest events of But again he couldnt win.

Both the youngsters will do bete | ter next season, and meanwhile Brothe | er Jackie is coming along to take up in the junior events where the others leave off.

BALLSTON, Va., October 26.—For the first time this season the little generals of Washington-Lee High School are reacting from defeat on the foot ball fleld, an amazing fourth- quarter attack by Luray High yes- terday overcoming a one-touchdown lead of the local eleven and resulting in an 18-14 victory for the visitors. ° Just when it seemed as if Jim Campbell’s 15-yard romp for the score was to be unavailing because of the fallure of two conversions, the young halfback got away for the third and th | out the base ball situation in England t | which is a funny game.

The chief thing is for the British boys to learn the rudiments of base ball. If they do, the game may sweep the islands like a prairie fire. “I didn’t get much chance to figure last time I was there,” said the Babe. “I had to look at this cricket game, Naw, I can’t explain what kind of a game it is.
