SPORTS. THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTO! D. C, SEPTEMBER 27, 1936—PART O <* SPORTS. District Sailors Make Big Showing in President’s Cup Regatta Wirehaven’s Charm Girl Best In Bench Show at Pikesvil TRIUMPH IN FOUR OF NINE CLASSES Smythe Nosed Out by U. S. Champ by Three Points in Comet Division. BY BILL DISVIER, JR. UTSHONE by out-of-towners in the more spectacular power boat events, Washing- ton's boating fraternity claimed its own share of the limelight of the President’s Cup Regatta when a review of the three sailing races, brought to a close yesterday morning, revealed that local skippers had cap- tured four of the nine class cham- pionships. To them will go, as will to the five other champions, The Evening Star trophies which have contributed no little to the marked increase of enthusiasm over the wind-propelled craft. More than 75 sailboats, nearly twice as many as competed in 1935, entered this year. Practically assured of three of the cups when the third and final race started yesterday, by virtue of twin victories in the first two races on Friday, Capital entrants gained their fourth champion when Bill Barnhart's Black Cat scored in the Class A Handi- cap to nose out J. W. Hurst's Lucille of Norfolk, winner of the first two races on Friday, by one and one- quarter points. Barnhart's victory, plus his second-place points of the opening day, gave him the champion- ship of his class with 20!; points, Other Titles Gathered. THER titles to fall into local hands were those of the sailing canoes, won by C. A. Van Kammen; the Class B Handicap, won by F. Levy's Kittywink, and that of the albatross class. The finish of the last series, however, found W. W. Heintz's Madic and R. M. Cox's Falcon tied for first with 121 points each. Which of the ‘Washington men will get The Star ‘Trophy will not be decided until a week from today when the deadlock is sailed off. Altogether, Washington skippers captured 13 of the pay-off positions, taking all three places in the alba- tross class, first and second in three— canoe, Class A and B Handicaps—a second in the 20-foot open class, second and third in the comet class and a third in the dinghy race. Two out-of-town boats, one a national champion, were the only entrants to make clean sweeps, the comet Aquilla repulsing the threat of the local champion, Sassy, yesterday for the third straight time, and the snipe Muriel, from Sea Cliff, N. Y. Showing his wake to D. Verner Smythe by a goodly margin, Alton O'Brien of Perth Amboy piloted the Aquilla to a 4134-38-point victory over the Sassy. A local comet, Serena, skippered by R. Clyde Cruitt, slipped into third place when the Red Don of A. N. Grant, also of Perth Amboy, was disqualified for hauling out Friday night, The Serena compiled 32 points. Barbara Myers, one of the many fair contestants in the regatta, skip- pered her father’s Minx to third posi- tion among the comets yesterday, but previous failures to place prevented the Minx from finishing among the first three point-scorers. Muriel Likely Champion. LTHOUGH no official' rating was | given the snipes at the close ol’» the sailing events, P. Carlson’s Muriel | undoubtedly will be proclaimed the champion as a result of its victories in each of the three races. Southern Cross, sailed by B. Becker of Sea CIiff, N. Y., boosted a previous third-place showing to second yesterday, while the Chase Me of Charles Gabor of Sparta, N. Y., duplicated its third place of the first race. The Challenger of Ernest Hartge of Galesville, Md., took the odd race of the 20-foot open class when it dupli- cated its performance of the second race to nose out the first race winner, Vanitie, by nearly 5 minutes. Van- itie, sailed by Osborne Owings of this city, scored 9% points in contrast to the Challenger’s 151, Madic beat the Falcon by little more than s minute to gain a tie in the albatross division, culminating a gradual improvement in standing which had found it in third position in the first series and second in the second. Although Van Kammen's No. 20 failed to place in the first three po- | py sitions of the sailing canoes yesterday, victories In the first two contests gave | roos him a 162-13 victory over Jack Haz- zard’s Sir Tom, which bettered two previous third places to finish runner- up both in the last contest and in the final scoring. Pred Tilp, skipper of the local Sea | Scouts, came out with his moth, Fancy Pants, for the first time and proceeded to whip both the Blackbeard and Blue Heron of Elizabeth City, N. C., which had finished one-two in the first two races. His time for the one lap of 2Y; miles was 18 seconds short of an PACINI ROLLS WHOPPER Game of 192 Features Rolling in Intercity Circuit Ollie Pacini shot a game of 192 for Washington Brewers to feature last night's rolling here in the Baltimore- ‘Washington Major League. His team won two games from Monumental Printing at the Temple. In other matches, Bethesda de- feated Overlea No. 2, 2 to 1, at Be- thesds, and Edwards Motor, Washing- ton, defeated National Beer, Balti- mare, 2 to 1, at Mount Rainier. ERPOG X LOOP TITLE AT STAKE to admit to themselves that their season is fast approaching its end. For some time now catches have not been of any notable size nor have they been very consistent. Blues have scattered and are seeking their way out of the bay and down toward the Carolina coast; trout are not schooling with any degree of regu- larity, those caught being found in widely scattered sections of the' bay, and only rockfish remain to entertain sportsmen. Even these striped fish are acting strange and biting only at intervals. In spite of the pessimistic tone of general bay fishing, a reasonable num- ber of good catches have been made this week and the chances are that more will be made next week and the next. It is only that anglers cannot go down and expect the good fishing they had earlier in the year. If you strike & good streak you may return with upward of 50 to the boat, but the general average is less than that. Still fishing with cut spot and peeler crab, a group of Maryland fishermen landed 20 good blues near Cove Point Tuesday evening. This catch was made about 100 yards offshore in 10 or 15 feet of water near the end of the tide. The news SALT-WAm anglers have begun quickly reached Washington, and this department was down there the next evening and tried the same thing. A strong sea was running, the water was dirty and we were unable to repeat. Cove Point is a fairly good spot and blues should be there if anywhere, and the fact that we caught nothing of note is an example of how uncertain fishing is now. OATS searching for rock have moved into the Patuxent instead of fishing the grounds around Cedar Point, and are doing everything but run each other down in their eagerness to troll close to Rocky Point. That point is very heavily fished at present, and largely because of such constant trolling over their grounds the rock are striking only fair. They are strik- ing though. As the days progress they, if past performances count for anything, will go farther up the river and in a week or two will be joined by the larger rock at Point Patience and above. Patuxent River rockfishing in the Fall has been developed into & real art by some of the boat captains. On a cool day, with just a nip of frost playing around the edges, they take their parties out in boats which have been equipped with a small galley. Near the stove they have half a bushel or so of fresh oysters, and as anglers try their various lures on the big stripers the oysters are steamed or roasted and served up piping hot. It adds greatly to the comfort and en- joyment of the trlp BLVJEFXSH have been reported in scattered sectors, but they do not remain long in any one spot. An- other example of this fast traveling was given by Ollie Atlas, who took a party down by Kenwood Beach way. Fishing had been good on the Gooses the previous day, so they headed in that direction, Their boat captain had failed to supply chum, se they resort- ed to trolling and only brought aboard half & dozen biues and an equal number of trout and vaedholl Races.

Smith and Bob Smith trolled the same area and caught 18, two of which weighed only a fraction under 5 pounds. It only goes to show that sometimes you can and sometimes you can't. Our favorite captains at Seaside and North Beach apparently have folded up for the Winter, or it may be that they are so busy that they can’t answer the phone. Whatever the reason, we have been unable to get reports from that locality, but farther up the bay at Shadyside Capt Robert E. Lee reports that angling 1s still good. Fair hauls of around 50 per ‘boat are being made, consisting of rock, trout and blues, in the order named. Trolling is the method used, still fishing having been uncertain for the past week or so. Rock are of good size, the blues being of the taylor variety. ENERAL REPORTS.—Better trout catches are being made over on the Eastern Shore, several going over 5 pounds having been caught there this week. The Honga River appears to be a good spot. Anglers are discussing the possibil- ity of a large school of blues in the Southwest Middles. Capt. Dick Wood- burn of Solomons believes he hit the upper edge the other day when he caught several 3 and 4 pounders, and & number of very good catches—10 and 12 pounds per fish—have been made, but fishing is erratic. A. H. G. Mears of Wachapreague, ‘Va., reports that the storm did not do much damage there, and that channel bass have returned. The first one this week was caught Monday, and since then they have been striking good. If weather conditions are fa- wvorable, they will stay until Oc- tober 10 or 20, and trout and other varieties until about the middle of November. Small-mouths have been taking ar- tificial in the Potomac above Little Falls, and we also have a report of an 8-pound catfish which was cap- tured on a river runt. They usually are caught still fishing with cut bait, but occasionaliy you will hear of one taken with a plug or fly. PLAY FOR GOLF TITLE Jackson, Harris Finalists Today in Colored Tourney. Eddie Jackson and Dr. Albert R. Harris reached the final round of the District colored golf championship yesterday when they defeated M. Beleno and U. Clever over the Lin- coln Memorial course.

Aided by & glorious day, an ideal location and a good entry of quality dogs, to say nothing of a hard-work- ing and efficient club membership, this show was one worthy of the record the young club has made for itself. ‘Top honors, the trophy for the best dog of the two hundred or so shown, went to J. B. Kimes' buff-colored cocker spaniel bitch, Wirehaven's Charm Girl. This dog, of course, won the sporting group. Dachshund Is Victor. "THE winner of the hound group was the black and tan dachshund, Ferdel von der Boris, owned by Mrs. C. A. Myers of Stemmers Run, Md. The sable and white collie, Big Bcy of Barneykirk, was the winner of the working group. Bill Todd's nice little smooth fox terrier, Shadow Lane Tops, took the terrier group. Rufus of El- lerslie, a pug owned by Frank Down- ing of Baltimore, won the toy group, and the lovely fawn bulldog, Spring- lake Boddie Boy, owned by Cary Lind- say of Baltimore, won the non-sport- ing group. In addition to the high honors garnered for metropolitan Washing- - OLF'S final spasm of competi- tive activity, in full swing on many fronts these days, ap- proaches a peak this week— with half a dozen club championships in process of being decided, team matches for the Maryland State cham- plonship being run off and the pros from the Middle Atlantic sector hot in the chase of three places open in the national P. G. A. tournament. It's a regular annyal gesture, this final fling of competftive stuff, after a Summer of comparative dullness, and it's all packed into about a month. Over at the Five Farms course of Baltimore Country Club today Wiffy Cox, the links spark-plug of Kenwood Club, will lead his gallant crew into action against the Baltimore boys in the initial joust of the Maryland State team matches. Right off the bat, the Kenwood lads face a tough assign- ment, for the Baltimore boys are tough hombres on their own pasture, and Kenwood, winner of the team title last year, may be bumped off in the first match. It isn't likely, but it's possible. Other local teams which swing into action in the team matches today are Indian Spring, Chevy Chase, Argyle, Beaver Dam and Manor. D. C. Women in Ttitle Play. UP AT Canoe Brook, N. J., where the women's national champion- ship will open tomorrow, seven local linkswomen will be putting the final touches on their shots in preparation for the 18-hole round, in which 64 fair stars will qualify tomorrow for the match-play rounds opening Tues= day. The local women entered are: Mrs. Betty P. Meckley, Middle Atlantic, District and Maryland champion; Helen Dettweiler, Elizabeth Hough- ton, Mrs. L. G. Pray, Mrs. Bishop Hill, Marion Brown and Mrs. Landra B. Platt. It isn't likely that any will go a long way in the tournament. With the Congressional Coun- try Club championship to wind up today, title tournaments are in progress at several other clubs. Match play already has started at Argyle, Beaver Dam and Indian Spring, while aspirants for the club titles at Manor, Kenwood, Washington and Woodmont are going through their qualifying rounds. Members of the Kenwood team do not have to qualify for the club title. Down at Richmond next Wednesday most of the professional talent in this area will gather at the James River course of the Country Club of Vir- ginia to scrap for three places open ton fanciers by Kimes' dog, other nearby fanclers did very well for themselves, too. Kimes' male cocker, My Gold Dollar, was the best male cocker there, making two first-class wins for the Silver Spring kennel. Mrs. F. H. Jones of Merrifield, Va, showed her wire-hair fox urrur, Princess Honey of Macroom, to best bitch in that breed. Fred Sherry hud both the winning male and winuning bitch Irish terriers, the former named FElkin's Maple Place Mike, the latter, Sunset Norah. Mrs. Sherry had the best Chesapeake Bay pup in the three to six month class. Honors to D. C. Terriers. "THREE Boston terriers from Wash- ington carried off three first-place ribbons. Sylvia McGrath’s little Tommy was the winning dog, while her tiny Gerry was the winning bitch in the three to six month class. Mary Lynn Irwin's Boujie Lee was the winning novice bitch. Beech Tree Farm’s collie, Sir Malcolm, took first in novice dogs, while the tiny Shet- land sheep dog, Beech Tree Leader, was the winning Sheltie. In bulldogs, Mr. and Mrs. A. Forbush’s General Grant of R. K. O. took second in the open classes, and their Irish Maggie, looking every inch the part, was sec- ond in open bitches, nosing out Mr. and Mrs. J.
