‘A—18 8 PORTS. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON. D. 0, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 24, 19386. SPORTS. Metcalfe Picked as Sure Conqueror of Owens in Longer Sprint, BY R R, TAYNTON. MARQUETTE FLYER SEEN “200" VICTOR Coach Willing to Wager on Him—German Held Best in Decathlon. BY FRANCIS J. POWERS. HICAGO, June 24.—“Con" Jen- nings, Marquette University’s track coach, was encountered wandering around Stagg Field | during the N. C. A. A. meet; on a bus- man’s holiday, as it were. “How is Ralph Metcalfe running?” you asked. “Well, how about us making a little wager?” retorted Conrad. “Say we wager that’ Metcalfe beats Jesse Owens in the 200-meter trials at Randalls Island and again in the Olympics at Berlin? Does that an- | swer your question?” | “How about betting that Owens| beats Metcalfe in the 100?” your cor- | respondent queried. | “No, I won't say that Metcalfe can beat Owens in the 100. Perhaps he can. But I am certain he will be the | winner in the 200 meters. Ralph is training nicely and is just coming to the peak of his form. By another week when the open Olympic irials will be held at Milwaukee, Metcalfe should be ready to step out. Any talk that Ralph is on the down grade or that he has not trained well is| strictly the bunk. Hell be just as| good in the 200 meters at Berlin as he was at Los Angeles four years ago.” Jennings is the last word on Ralph Metcalfe and his flying feet. Siefert Big and Fast. qOME othér coaches came along ' and the talk drifted from one thing to another, until some one men- tioned the decathlon. Jennings took the floor again. “I don’t think there is much chance of any one topping Hans Siefert of Germany in the decathlon. I saw him two years ago When I took a group of American track stars to Europe. Siefert is a graduate of | Hamburg University and I'd say he was about 24 years old. He weighs 220, but is 6 feet 2 inches tall and so well proportioned he moves like the average 175-pounder. Just to give | you an idea of what he can do in the | decathlon, we'll check his perform- | ance in the 10 events: “The German can do the 100 meters in 11.1 seconds, the 110 meter hurdles in 14.6, the 400 meters in .54 flat and the 1,500 meters in 4:13, He will pole vault 13 feet, broad jump around 25 feet, high jump 6 feet 2 inches, throw the discus between 145 | and 150 feet, pitch the javelin 190 feet and put the shot 50 feet. I don't think United States will have any man who can equal Siefert in the all- around championship.” Peacock Believed Out.

YANK NET FORCES INENGLAND SHRINK |Further Dwindling Is Due at Wimbledon as Jones Opposes Allison. By the Associated Press. IMBLEDON, England, June 24.—A further reduction in America’s dwindling tennis forces in the all-England | tennis championships was on schedule | today as play was resumed in the men's singles after a day devoted to women's singles and men's doubles play. Wilmer Allison, the Texas Davis Cup star, and David N. Jones of New York, former Columbia University captain, were to oppose each other. Gene Mako, the young Californian, faced tough opposition today in Chris- tian Boussus, the French star. Fred Perry, the defending champion, had an | easy match against K. Chartikavanij | of Siam. T IS general opinion that Eulace | Peacock, the Temple University Star, will not be able to win an Olympic berth. Peacock still is pay- ing the penalty for pulled muscles and has been unable to reach the form which enabled him to beat Jesse Owens in the A. A. U. championships | last Summer. A few months ago it was believed that Owens, Metcalfe | and Peacock would be United States | representatives in the Olympic sprints | and that the Temple man would sec- | ond Owens in the broad jump. With | Peacock out there will be the chance for some sprinter and jumper to win & European trip by meritorious per- formance at Randalls Island. Jennings one of sports finest story tellers, then came up With a yarn about Metcalfe and Ed Gordon, the Negro broad jumper, during the last Olympics. Jennings and George | Bresnahan, the Iowa coach, were out | motoring one morning when a car sailed past them, carrying Metcalfe and Gordon. The coaches set out in pursuit and soon overhauled ‘their wandering stars. “Where are you boys going?” se- verely demanded Breshnahan. “We're going over to the studio for & movie tryout,” replied Gordon. “Don’t you know that if you monkey around in pictures it will professional- ize you?” snapped Jennings. “You turn around and get back to the Olympic village.” “Okay,” said Metcalfe. “I didn't think so much of the idea any how. You know what those movie men wanted me to do, Mr. ‘Con’? They | Jacobs, Andrus Survive. ‘HE women's singles and men’s dou- | © bles were to continue. Helen | Jacobs and Mrs. Dorothy Andrus were listed among the survivors in the | women’s event. In the doubles three all-American | teams, Allison and John Van Ryn and Don Budge and Mako, seeded second | and third respectively, and Bryant Grant and Gerald Stratford won their opening matches yesterday. Three | other Americans came through with | partners from other countries. They | were Hal Surface of Kansas City, paired with Ian G. Collins of England; Jones, with Daniel Prenn of Germany, and Merriman Cunningham, the Ox- ford student from South Carolina, with Jiro Itoh of Japan. Fights Last Night By the Associated Press.

And every thinking ‘community knows toat it must take measures to solve the problem of the dog before it be- comes a menace. Arlington County, in Virginia, as well as the other near- by counties, has this problem to meet in an aggravated form, for scores of thoughtless, witless, cruel persons in the Districc make a practice of dropping unwanted dogs and cats along the roadside in the rural dis- tricts of the county. People who buy a “cute puppy” of no special breed find that their apart- ments will not accommodate the grown dog. People who accept gifts of pupples that they really do not want because Junior would like a dog to play with, and then get rid of the “dirty dog” when the boy goes to camp, add to the difficulties of the county law makers. 'HESE dogs are not picked up by kind-hearted farmers as many of the ‘“tender-hearted” dog droppers probably assume. These dogs run the woods and roads, to die of fear or starvation if they are weaklings, or to become a source of danger if they survive. ‘They become killer dogs, the scourge of sheep growers and poultry raisers, they form the un- principled packs often seen chasing unlucky females on suburban streets, | they become the source of frequent rabies scares, they act as hosts for infected ticks which carry the germ of spotted fever. This is especially deplorable in view of the fact that the District abounds in humane societies which exist for the specific purpose of taking care of unwanted animals. A telephone call or post card to any one of them will bring & truck right to tne door of any one who has any sort of animal to dispose of, and that animal will be placed in a home where he is really wanted, or put to sleep, painlessly and quickly, so that neither he nor the countryside will suffer. TO MEET the problem of the strays, Arlington County is promulgating a new law which is meeting both acclaim and objection. A hearing of this law before the County Board is set for June 29, and many dog- minded citizens plan to attend. | Briefly, this law calls for complete restraint of the dog at all times either by being kept on its owner's | grounds or by leash when on the public domain—provided the leash is in the hands of a person 16 years old or over. All dogs not so re- strained, if caught minus a license tag, may be destroyed on sight. If caught, wearing a license tag, they may be returned to its owner, who will be subject to fine. It undoubtedly is to the advantage of all dog owners to keep their dogs on leash when on the public roads. Were that done the toll of pets lost to the automobile would be cut to a practically negligible number. Rabins | and mad-dog scares would be almost eliminated. Dog fights in the streets | would be a thing of the past. But| the clause providing that the leash owner be 16 years old or over would tend to split the age-old partnership | of kid and dog. No ordinance can | force the average youngster to leave | | spantel, is at fault in the type of his dog at home when he goes out to play. And it would be better not to try than to fail. Nor does the provision that a dog may be destroyed on sight meet with the approval of the average citizen who has had his valuable cog slip out of an inadvertently opened gate while collar, duly decorated with a $3 tag, hangs behind the kitchen door. Were there an impounding clause in the proposed law, much cf the opposition to it would be eliminated. Arlington County needs some dog laws, and dog laws need ihought. RS. RICHARD BIRNEY recently has returned from Philadelphia, where she judged a large entry of Boston terriers for the Philadelphia Boston Terrier Club. Evidently our local Boston brez2ders are popular with the Philadelphia crowd, for Mrs. Birney is the second judge from this neighborhood to act for that club. MANY dogs go “off their feed” in hot weather. Like people, dogs require less food in hot weather than cold, and often do beiter on food of a different type from their cold weather diet. Less fat, fewer starches, more water—that tells the story in a nut shell. & If your dog has been fed on a com- mercially prepared meal feed, he may welcome the dry biscuit for a change. Many of the meal manufacturers make the biscuits too. The canned foods add the spice of variety to their menu. But the staple diet, Summer and Winter, should be meat and plenty of it. WHILE the movies may promote popularity of certain breeds, they also promote headaches for the unwary producers who are not dog- wise. There seem to be certain peo- ple who take an unholy delight in tripping up the film producers who make a mistake in a period of any kind regardless of whether the mis- take affects the sense of the picture or no. For this reason, the film ver- sion of Ben Hur caused many caustic comments when a wire-hair fox ter- rier, a breed many hundred years in the future of the period of that story, appeared in some of the scenes. Even the supposedly authentic “Bar- rets of Wimpole Street,” which has | done so much to popularize the cocker cocker used to portray Flush. The English cocker spaniel of the Brown- ing period was a much heavier type of dog, more nearly resembling what | is now called a field spaniel. Pedi- greed Pictures, Inc., devotes all its time to dog pictures, but has to call on the library of the American Ken- ney Club frequently for information regarding the forbears of many of our modern dogs. REEDERS of wire-hair and smooth fox terriers all are interested in | the new A. K. C. ruling that calls for only one best of breed for the two classifications. Winners classes will be called for both smooths and wire hairs, then the best of winners of each | group will meet for best fox terrier. | This is emphasizing the fact, almost lost sight of in the last few years, | that both smooth hairs and wire hairs | are one breed.

EW YORK, June 24—Max Schmeling is on his way back to Germany aboard the Zep- pelin Hindenburg. Joe Louis is preparing to do some intensive loafing at Julian Black’s farm at Stevensville, Mich. But along Forty-ninth street, the center of the boxing market, busi- ness still is humming. Before boarding the big airship yes- terday Schmeling promised Promoter Mike Jacobs he would be back in August to fight Jimmy Braddock for the heavyweight championship. Then, relieving Mike’s mind still further, he promised to defend the crown, if he should win it, in the United States next Summer. There had been rumors the German schlager would retire if he should succeed in making ring history by regaining the title. “Weli, for 42 per cent of a million dollar gate I'd defend that title any- | where,” Max explained logically as he put the rumors to rest. EANWHILE Max Machon, Schmel- ing’s trainer, remained behind to attend to the matter of income taxes, which forced the German to leave be- hind about $40,000 of the $141,000 he earned by beating Louis last week. Mike Jacobs not only has the task cf reconciling his and Braddock’s differ- ence with Madison Square Garden so the Schmeling-Braddock bout can be staged in September, but he is looking | around for suitable opponents for Louis’ | next fight. Max Baer already has put in his bid for: that one; Al Ettore, who whipped his fellow Philadelphian, Leroy Haynes, Monday, also is under consideration, as are several other less prominent heavy- weights. Joe would like another crack at Schmeling, but he won't get it unless they come together in the big title scrap of 1937. _— Split Gate Receipts Equally No| Matter Who Is Featured.

Regardless of who is featured on the bill—it happens to be Rudy tomorrow night at Griffith Stadium—the Duseks | split the gate receipts evenly. The dangerous Duseks would not be | splitting purses at all if Momma Hason | —their real name—had her way. After Rudy deserted the family circle and | hit the caulifiower trail for several years, he returned home and plunked $1.500 into Mrs. Hason's lap.

Nevertheless, they may be caught in muddy water by the use of noise producing plugs. Up in the canal and Dalecarlia Reservoir, when the water is clear, top-water baits like the super-surface and weedless-widow can be cast out, and because of their weedless hooks | brought in with short twitches of the rod which move the bait a few inches at a time. QIld 210, a deadly hooker, with two sets of double hooks, is prac- tically weedless and is ideal for use over thick weed beds and around lily pads and also for night fishing. WHEN a bait is used as an under- water lure, particularly as a deep-sinking one, it can be made to travel in an up and down course by short jerks of the rod. Many under- water baits have an erratic action and can be made to vibrate quickly by giv- ing them a short jerk every three or four quick turns of the reel as they are brought in. This brings them to- ward the surface, the slack allows | the bait to dive and the operation is repeated.
