SPORTS. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1936. SPORTS : c-3 Columbia to Irrigate Fairways : Pace Stiffens in Women’s Golf SPRINKLING PLANT BY 37 15 PLANNED Membership Soon to Vote on Links Improvement Governors Adopt. OLUMBIA COUNTRY CLUB = is going to have a fairway - watering system in operation over all its golf course in 1937. A special committee, consisting of D. C. Walser, Martin R. West and W. W. Dean has submitted to the Board of Governors of the club a plan, together with detailed costs, for installation of a system and the board has recommended that it be done dur- ing the coming few months. But before final approval is given & the plan, the membership of the club will vote on it. This will be done at the annual meeting on October 28. ‘There isn’t much question, judged by sentiment at Columbia, that the system of artificially watering the fair- ways during the hot months will be | approved. | Columbia thus will become the sec- ond Washington course to receive the benefits of fairway watering. Chevy Chase is the first. The Chevy Chase fmhmtlon was made in the Fall of 934, Fitts in Charge of Work. ETAILS of the Columbia instal- i lation, while not available, are »: understood to provide for complete piping of the course. The installa- tion, it is also understood, will be carried out during the coming Win- ter under the direction of O. B. Fitts, the course supervisor, and his greens- keeping force. The special committee went into all angles of fairway watering before sub- mitting its report. Two of the mem- bers—Walser and Dean—are engineers. Walser heads the Greens Committee and West heads the Golf Committee. Columbia, long one of the “show” courses in this area, has been trou- bled, like all other golf layouts locally, with scanty and sparse fairways dur- ing the hot months. Particularly dur- ing years of drought and little rain the grass becomes thin and scarce. But fairway watering will take care o©f this situation. McLeod on Side Lines. FRED MCcLEOD, Columbia pro, has been ordered not to play golf for & while. The Columbia mentor has been in the hands of doctors and dentists for a week or more, has had a flock of molars removed and doesn't feel so good. He probably wouldn't | want to play if he could, but the medicos have taken care of this by ordering him not to play. ‘W. W. Hinshaw, one of Fred's pu- pils, is in town for his annual Fall golf jamboree, but Red Hanagan is doing the golfing with him each morning. — BREWERS LIKE SELVES Emue Challenge to Sleuths for Series on Diamond. ! The Heurich Brewers, champions of | g ocal Sunday base ball league competi- | M tion, are convinced they are the best | N, diamond outfit in the city, and would like & chance to prove it against the | & Bureau of Investigation, week-day | ehampion, in a two-out-of-three-game series. So confident is Chris Heurich, jr., that his club is superior to the Sleuths |3 that he is willing to place a $500 side | bet on the outcome of the series. Whether the series will be played depends on whether Investigation dia- monders accept the challenge of the Brewers. ‘The Brewers, placed in the same spot | ¢ two years ago when N. R. A., week-day champions, challenged them. accepted | the dare and dropped a three-game series. HUFF IS GIVEN OXYGEN CHAMPAIGN, IIl, September 30 P)—The condition of George Huff, for 35 years the University of Illinois athletic director, continued extremely grave today. | The 64-year-old patient, suffering | from a stomach ailment and com- plications which followed an ab- dominal operation, was placed in an | oxygen tent. -He failed to show marked improve- ment from yesterday’s two blood trans- ). tusions. During the night physicians said his temperature rose slightly to | 103 degrees. —_— O0'NEILL GOES ON AIR.

Fame Beckons Furr, — BY BURTON HAWKINS Boys who played with Dunlap at Central are scattered among colleges now, with Nick Pistoles at Columbia, Hank Gibbins at George- town, Frank Kocsis at Florida, Billy Richardson at George Washington, Bill Dunn at Wilson Teachers and Billy Bryant at Maryland. Denman Thompson, the boss, picked the Giants to win the pennant in a pre-season prognostication in the Sporting News, while Francis Stan was the only local scribe to select the Yankees for top-spot honors. ‘The President’s Cup Regatta Com- mittee, which likes its publicity, is no- torious for its lack of co-operation with the press once the meet gets under way....Some land-lubbing admirals grab two or three lunch boxes every year and allow scribes who put the regatta over each season to go hungry. . . . And your stomach can tickle your backbone after a few hours aboard the Apache. Big Chance for Furr. PHZL FURR, whose fistic star alter- nately has twinkled and short- circuited, can shove up the ladder of larrup quite a few notches by trouac- ing Jack Portney in their 20-round marathon at Turner's Arena in the near future. ... Portney has been ranked third the welterweight di- vision, behind Barney Ross and Jack Carroll and ahead of Jimmy Larnin, by the National Boxing Association. Maj. Harvey L. Miller, secretary of the District’ Boxing Association, was directly responsible for the high rank- ing of Portney, Marty Gallagher, Buck Everett, Cowboy*™Howard Scott and Ken Overlin at the N. B. A. Conven- tion in Houston, Tex., recently. Matt Twomey, coach of the Olympic A. C. boxing team, is being severely criticized by many ringworms for stretching the amateur career of Lou Gev- inson too far. Lou had fought approximately 80 Simon-pure battles and was deemed ready for his professional debut many months ago, but the classy District A. A U. and Golden Gloves feather- weight champion still is flinging fists where it doesn’t count. BY BURTON HAWKINS. UT in front by a couple of “ski’s,” Catholic University's foot ball team must take the title for possessing the most unusual names on local gridiron squads, although Georgetown and George Washington run second and third quite creditably. No one will dispute the Cards’ claim to the crown, with such names as Yanchulis, Makofske, Adamaitis, Se- cino, Gemlo, Anthonavage, Pagano, Katalinas, Chludenski, Rydzewski, Vidnovic, Arnoldsky and Krawezel . .. The Hoyas annoy sports writers con- siderably with such monnickers as Riofski, Barabas, Churinskas, Petrosky, Vaccaro, Urbanski, Ferrara, Gibeau, Valiquette and Stralka. + The prestige of the Colonials is upheld by Rebhoiz, Salturelli, Tihilia, Renzaglia, Yurwitz, Grbovaz and Czech . .. A Ger- man lad, Roy Witzke, is Mary- land’s lone representative. Chino Alvarez, who chilled Cowboy Howard Scott, District lightweight champion, in Florida recently, may be handled in the East by Scott’s man- ager, Gabe Menendez . . .

BILLY MITCHELL, high - scoring Wilson Teachers’ College basket ball ace, has enrolled at George Wash- ington ., . He will play freshman bail this year and will be eligible for var- sity competition next season ... He also has been the mainstay of the Olmsted Grill quint for several seasons.

September 30.— Ben Jarvis, 222-pounder from Arkansas and one of the tackle candidates on the Navy foot ball squad this year, is believed to be the heaviest man who ever played on the middy varsity. He was a plebe tackle last year and has a good chance of making the varsity this season. Babe Brown, noted guard of Navy foot ball tradition, weighed 215 as a player. Franch Lynch, an- other tackle candidate this year, weighs 216. There is recollection of a man- mountain middy who weighed 260 pounds, but he never got further than B squad.

FREDERICKSBURG, Va., Septem- ber 30 () —The annual Predericks- burg Horse Show, for which officials say 402 entries have been received in 26 classes, will begin Priday after- noon and continue through Saturday. The show will be the largest in the history of this section. Thirty exhibitors from Virginia, Maryland and Washington will send approximately 60 horses hese to com- pete in the show, which will be strictly | & hunter’s affair, there being no sad- dle classes and only four pony classes. K. C. Johnson of Norfolk and Louis Leith of Middleburg will act as judges. Constance Moore of Freder- icksburg is show secretary.

MIDDLEBURG, Va., September 30. —The first of 24 hunter and pony classes, scheduled in the two-day Middleburg Horse Shoe, began here this morning at 10 a.m. at Glenwood, the estate of D. C. Sands. Fifteen events were to be run off today, followed by a program of steeplechase and flat races, and the remaining nine competitions are set for tomorrow. The meeting will wind up with a card of two races tomor- row afternoon. Mrs. John Hay Whitney, Turner Wiltshire, Benton Stables and many other well-known exhibitors are SHOE FANS EAGER 10 SEE CHAMPION Allen Displays His Tricks, Meets Metro Stars at Brentwood Tonight. TREAT long wished for by Washington horseshoe pitch- ing addicts will be realized tonight when Ted Allen of Alhambra, Calif., world champion, displays his art on the town courts at Brentwood, Md., starting at 7:30 o'clock. Ringer fans here are eager to see how the leading exponents of the game in the metropolitan area stack up against genuine big-time talent. Allen is the first nationally famous flipper to appear in this section. His opponents will be Clyaton Hen- son, Virginia champion; Deadpan Frye of Orkney Springs, Va, who holds a decision over Allen gained in a match at Orkney Springs, and Temple Jarrell, Maryland title holder. Cash for Merryman. ALL!N comes here from New York, where this Fall he will exhibit for three weeks at Madison Square Garden. Following the matches tonight he will run through his repertoire of trick shots, some of which have astonished horseshoe fans throughout the country. In a Madison Square Garden show last year Allen electri= fied a large gallery by knocking the ashes from a cigar. Volunteers to assist in this trick aren’t easy to find and the ringer wizard may not be able to put it on tonight. A coin collection will be taken, with Allen accepting 75 per cent or less of the “gate.” He will be asked to forego a portion of his usual percentage in order to swell the kitty for Joe Merry- man, former Maryland champ, who for several weeks has been down with both legs broken. Joe is to receive all cash collected aside from Allen's take. PACINI OUT FRONT INDUCKPIN LEAGUE Averages 139 in Intercity Play—Hilliard Trails. Brewers Lead. LLIE PACINI of the league- leading Washington Brewers is setting the early pace in the Baltimore-Washington Major Duckpin League with an aver- age of 139.2 for six games, while Har- ry Hilliard, whose Hyattsville quint is deadlocked with the Brewers, is sec- ond in high average with 136. ‘With both the Brewers and Hyatts- ville having won five of their first six games, the race gives promise of de- veloping into a wide-open affair with two teams, Convention Hall and Rus- sell Motor Co., only one game behind the leaders. Each has won four games while dropping two. PRDOF' of the high caliber of the league is seen by the activity of the first two weeks during which 23 games over 600 have been rolled by the 12 teams. Convention Hall holds the high team-scoring récord with a game of 659 and a set of 1,906. Pacini’s 192-game and 443-set are the high individual scores, with Hil- liard having rolled two 400 sets. A veteran, Arthur Logan, who used to roll back in the days of sand-papered alleys when an average of 105 was an accomplishment, has kept up with the young fellows by sets of 348 and 365 in his first two evenings. ‘This week end’s schedule calls for the following matches: Overlea vs. Hyattsville, Washington Brewers vs. Villa Caretti, Monumental Printing vs. Georgetown, Happy Five vs. Be- thesda, Russell Motor Co. vs. Twenti- eth Century and Convention Hall vs. National Beer.

BARRY SEES KAYO WIN FOR EVERETT Regains Pep to Impress With Gym Workout—Goes Ten Rounds Today. ED BARRY, who once trounced Marty Gallagher and who now is absorbing daily shellackings from Buck Everett as a spar- mate, feels the District heavyweight champion will flatten Gallagher within 12 rounds when the popular mitten manipulators clash Monday night at Grifith Stadium in a 15-round scrap for the local title. Barry's opinion naturally is in con- trast to that of Natie Brown, who has crawled out on a limb to predict that Marty will drop Buck inside of seven rounds. Brown now is aiding Gallagher in his conditioniag grind. Sees Big Attendance. ROMOTER JOE TURNER also joined in the free-for-all prog- nostication competition, asserting the bout probably will set a new attend- ance record for a heavyweight fight here. All previous advance sale records already have been smashed. Everett, whose lethargy in a workout Monday prompted Brown'’s statement, pummeled Barry and Billy Nichy in training yesterday and impressed hangers-on with his condition amd punching prowess. He was slated to| spar 10 rounds with his human punch- ing bags today. Killer Lamar, chilled by Shorty Ahearn of New York after compiling a knockout string of 13 victims, will face his conqueror in the semi-final bout. The colored heavyweights collide | in & match optimistically scheduled for six rounds. DOUBLE RING FEATURE All-Colored Show to Be Staged at | Arena Friday Night.

Cyclone Sammy Williams, popular District welterweight, will tangle with | Prince Albert of Tampa, Fla., in a six-round semi-final. Other bouts of six and four rounds each will be added to the card.

During the Fall the local club will hold & number of turkey shoots and team matches against the best skeet clubs in this vicinity. Chips From the Mépleways BOWLER who long ago carved his name for all time in the archives of duckpins has come to the front to help save a bowling venture that a few days ago seemed destined to hit the rocks. Maxie Rosenberg is the bLowler. Big-time bowling was getting all set to take a clout on the chin when 1t was rumored that the Southern In- tercity League, & four-city circuit, would fold up after one season of ac- tivity.

George Bowen of Solomons Island, to g0 out into the Patuxent now and catch anywhere from 20 to 30 pan stripers. A few big ones have been caught in that river already, and before long, boats will be heading upstream instead of out into the bay. Favorite grounds are Point Patience and Broome Island. ‘ State Senator J. C. Webster of Calvert County broke the ice with the first big rock of the Fall season, captured off Point Patience while trolling with a feather. His prize weighed right up to the ACH succeeding cool day may E be driving the blues and trout pleasant weather, several boats went up to Patience loaded with anglers seeking to duplicate the Senator's feat. Mmos and memoirs in regard to black bass—surface plugs, espe- cially plunkers and injured minnows, are effective only in extremely calm water, according to an experienced guide at Gunston Cove, who has seen 20 fishing seasons come and go.

Bowling moguls there who hope to attract a big entry next Spring in all prob- ability lost sight of the fact that through the medium of this league a mass of publicity could have been had. Their argument was that a cut in the price of bowling in Norfolk prevented them from entering again. ‘Washington was the next to give it # kick. The champion Occidental Restaurant and Temple Dixie Pigs withdrew. That left only Baltimore and Richmond. Things looked dark indeed. A meeting was held at which Astor Clarke, the country’s No. 1 shooter, was elected president to succeed Fred Buccholz, who so ably had aided in its promotion last season. Gino Simi, its energetic secretary, was up a tree. Richmond and Bal- timore representatives, were not inter- ested unless two more teams could be procured. But the Nation’s Capital, the hot- test duckpin city in the country, has yet to let a worthwhile adjunct to the little-pin game go to the wall. Hundreds of dollars had been spent to launch the project, which was an= other George L. Isemann brain-child. H!Rl Rosenberg entered the pic- ture. After years of exhibiting his skill on teams representing many business enterprises Max, now the owner of a concern himself, jumped at the opportunity to enter a team. It will be known as the Regal Neon Sign team. Lucky Strike will be the home alleys. Charlie Olive, also saw the advan- tages of the intercity loop. He came through with the sixth club to make it possible for the league to function. Astor Clarke will head an all-star cast that will include Bill Krauss, Perce Wolfe and George Honey for the Northeast proprietor who recently ac- quired the Queen Pin alleys and for the first time will bring the South’s greatest pinspillers to Southeast. berg has not completed his club, it is known that he will have Joe Harrison, Joe Freschi and Ed Blakeney, ’ DETTWEILER WINS OPENING CONTEST Berg Is Given Close Call by Shorb, 18-Year-0ld Comer From Ohio. By the Associated Press. UMMIT, N. J, September 30.— Several favorites, all of whom survived the opening round of match play in the national woman’s golf championship on the Canoe Brook course yesterday, were expected to receive stiffer competition today as they paraded into the second round. Helen Dettweller of Rockville, Md., who has improved her game consider- ably by touring with Babe Didrikson, scored a 3-and-1 victory over Helen ‘Waterhouse of Providence, R. I, to advance in the title fight for the crown vacated by Mrs. Glenna Collett Vare. Give Patty a Battle. THE real feature of the tournament thus far was provided by 18-year- old Eva Shorb of Cafiton, Ohio, who bowed to freckle-faced Patty Berg, finalist last year, after a thrilling, hec- tic battle. Comparatively inexperienced now and more self-taught than otherwise, she has the game and the courage to make a name for herself. She almost did it yesterday when she gave freckle-faced Patty of Minneapolis worries galore. Miss Berg won, 1 up, by holing a putt after Miss Shorb had missed hers on the eighteenth green, but be- fore that the blond Eva had the little American favorite shaking her head and wondering how the tournament would look from the sidelines. Pupil of Espinosa. MXSS SHORB has been playing golf about four years. She “learned it myself” at first, but has had help the last two years from Al Espinosa. She's won the Stark County, Ohio, championship the last three years and the Akron district title the last two years. This is her third national. She failed to qualify in her first try and lost to Mrs. Frank Gold- thwaite of Fort Worth, Tex, in the second round in her second attempt. She’s a freshman at Wooster Col- Jege, majoring in geology. “But I might be a doctor,” she said. “I'd like that.” HORNE GOLF WINNER. KINGSTON, Ontario, September 30 (#)—Stanley Horne, professional at the Ottawa Hunt Club, won the Canadian Professional Golfers’ Asso- ciation championship with a 72-hole medal score of 204.
