Larry Phillips, a keen student of the game who does his playing at the Argyle Club and with the Treas- ury Department team, was appointed chairman of the important Ranking | Committee. Mrs. Miller and Felix Silva, an indefatigable worker in every tournament held in Washington, com- | plete the committee. This trio is | acquainted with the game of every | outstanding player here and well- fitted for the arduous and thankless task of rating them. Their first of- ficial rankings are expected to be re- Jeased over the week end. A Tournament Committee, which will arrange and supervise schedules | of the city’s competitions this year, will be appointed in the near future | by President McCaskey.

Champion Dog With His Prey R. R. M. Carpenter, jr., of Montechain, Del., with his retriever, Dilwyne Montauk Pilot, which won the Field and Stream challenge trophy for 1936. Dilwyne Montauk Pilot is a jull brother of the noted re- triever, Skipper Bob, and was trained by Harry T. Conklin, who also trained Skipper. The award was based on the rec- ords of all the open trials held during the year. It was con- sidered a great victory for the Chesapeake breed, as Pilot was pitted against the best Labradors and curly-coated retrievers in the country. s ILL WOOD'S scrappy Lucky B Strike bowling team had fired new life into the District League pennant race today by suddenly jumping into the thick of a five-club battle for the coveted cham- pionship with its record-smashing vic- tory over the crack Washington Brew- ery aggregation which had held un- disputed lead of the all-star circuit since early season. In dealing out a stinging three- game defeat to the Northeast gang of sharpshooters last night at Lucky Strike the Luckies chalked up a sea- son set mark of 1910, with game totals of 607, 658 and 645, to gain a tie with Occidental Restaurant for third place. The old mark of 1,900 was held by Washington Brewery. "THE champion Heurich Brewers for the second consecutive week beat a front runner by downing Rose Liquor Store in the odd skirmish at George- town, but the Ben Rose entry assumed by Shreve, who turned over approx- imately $25 from the treasury of the | defunct Washington Tennis Associa- | tion, and by White's opinion that | Columbia would contribute the $25 | which it realized as its profit from | sponsoring the District tournament | Jast Summer. | An open dinner for tennis players and followers, which is destined to become an annual affair, will be dis- | cussed by the association's Executive Committee in the near future. It| would be the only mass meeting of all tennis enthusiasts in the District each year. Because member clubs of the new group already have appointed indi- vidual delegates, the association de- cided not to send an official repre- gentative to the meeting of the Middle | Atlantic Association next month. Next | year, it is though that the consensus | of opinion of the six individual mem- | bers will be expressed by one dele- | /gate, who will be the District’s sole | Tepresentative, .

L. By the Associated Press. INCINNATI, January 15.— Grid troubles beset the University of Cincinnati’s Bearcats today as Mentor Russ Cohen confirmed reports he had received n offer to coach elsewhere, and members of the frosh squad threatened to leave school unless they received jobs. Cohen, in a long-distance tele- phone conversation with the En- quirer from Waynesboro, Ga., said he had been offered a berth as assistant to Head Coach Allison (Pooley) Hubert at Virginia Mili- tary Institute, but that he had in- formed Hubert his Cincinnati con- tract still had & year to run. Daniel Lawrence, vice president of the university, previously had said he had not heard from Cohen, “but had no reason to.” Whether the silver-thatched mentor would seek a release from his contract, in the face of ex- pressed dissatisfaction over his teams’ records, was not known here. Lawrence said several members of the freshman squad had de- clared they would have to leaves school unless provided with jobs. Efforts are under way to give them employment, particularly through the co-ordination department of the school’s College of Engineering, he said. | [} a neat 118, led in the victory.

A has been created by Promoter Joe Turner here next Thurs- day, when Gino Garibaldi, veteran vil- lain of the Rudy Dusek circuit, tangles with Dean Detton, claimant of the world wrestling title, who growls for Toots Mondt, Dusek business rival. Departing from his custom of em- ploying only Dusek twisters, Turner has announced his intention of using many Mondt grapplers here on future mat cards. Mondt books such pachy- derms as Joe Savoldi, George Zaharias and Man Mountain Dean, and the use of wrestlers from both circuits insures Washington's muscle-marveling col- ony top-notch performers.

(GARIBALDI earned the right for a shot at Detton’s curly head and crown last night, when he pinned Stanley Pinto after 21 minutes of hectic brawling at Turner’s Arena be- fore less than 1,000 spectators. ‘The portly frame of Referee Benny ‘Bortnick, inserted between the grap- plers as he sought to pry them apart, accomplished Gino’s purpose. The trio fell clumsily to the mat, with Pinto getting the worst of it, and Garibaldi capitalized on the break to dispose of his pudgy foe. Kampfer Gives Good Show. ANS KAMPFER, stoic German strong man, provided the finest showmanship of the preliminaries, continually harassing Referee Al Bakash, who sailed over the ropes, be- came entwined in a bear hug and finally ended up somewhat bewildered sitting on the mat after being bumped by Hans. Kampfer worked to a 30- minute draw with Scotty McDougal. In other preliminaries John Katan tossed Ernie Powers with a series of body slams in 21': minutes, George McLeod flipped Babe Caddock in 15 Barber threw Jim Wright with a hip roll in 11 minutes. e TEACHERS LEADING CHURCH PIN LEAGUE Sweep Set With Prophets for First-Half Laurels of Loop in Chevy Chase. BY TAKING all three games from the former league-leading Proph- ets on the last night of the series, the Teachers have won the first-half championship of the Clyde Kelly Bowling League of the Chevy Chase Presbyterian Church. Although the Deacons were tied for first place with the Prophets as the final night's rolling began, their chances of sharing first-place honors with the Teachers were knocked for a loop in the last of their three games, which they lost to the fifth-place Elders. They finished in a tie for second place with the Sextons—one game behind the winners. The Prophets fell all the way to fourth place from their former front-run- ning position, but their fall was pre- cipitated by the fact that two of their best men were bedridden.

By the Associated Press. AMPA, Fla, January 15— California’s Don Budge today drew near the finals of the Dixie tennis tournament and a chance to avenge a recent licking by Bryan Grant of Atlanta. ‘The lanky redhead from Oakland indicated he feels he again is ap- proaching the form that won him No. 1 national rating last year and expressed confidence he can beat the tireless little Georgian. Grant said he would welcome an- other meeting with Budge. “And I'll do it again, next time we meet,” said the Georgia mite, the Nation’s third-ranking player. Elwood Cooke of Los Angeles, Budge's opponent today, was figured to give the favorite little trouble. A merry tussle apparently was in store for Frank Parker of Lawrence- ville, N. J. He drew Walter Senior of San Francisco, twelfth-ranking player nationally, for his quarter finals foe. Grant, who felled Budge in straight sets at Coral Gables last week, already has smacked his way to the semi- finals, with Parker as his prospective opponent. Showing his best form of the tour- nament, Bitsy ousted Wayne Sabin of Los Angeles yesterday, 6—3, 6—3. TROTTING GREATS IN RICH NEW RACE All-American, $17,500 pion Stake Put on List.

The American Kennel Club reveals that the prize ribbons won at dog shows in the course of a year, if put end to end or side to side or something, there would he enough yardage to make a tent large enough to house the greatest bench show, or even the greatest circus, ever seen in this coun- try. Approximately 100,000 pure-bred dogs are shown at 325 dog shows an- nually, at which about 500,000 rib- bons of different colors are awarded. Bize, colors and insignia are prescribed by the A. K.

The center balloon asked, | “I wonder if Soanso’s dogs will be at | the National Capital Show this year?” And Soandso’s name was let- tered in so neatly as to make it appear that it had been printed along with the rest of the card. A number of kennels sent out calen- dars instead of Christmas greeting | cards this year. One of the most beautiful I received was that from the Bellhaven Kennels, which showed a head study of one of the collies for which that kennel is famous. The Aspin Hill Kennels sent out extremely attractive cards with head studies of Ch. Aspin Hill High Time II. Christ- mas greetings from the .Dohertys | showed one of their bulldog puppies | imity. AT THE annual election of the Na- tional Capital Kennel Club Joe O'Hare was elected, for the eighth con- secutive term, as president. The vice president is Frank Downing of Balti- more and the secretary E. A. Honsick, both being former incumbents. The treasurer is Sam Woolner of Washing- ton Grove, Md., a comparative new- comer to kennel club circles in Wash- ington, but an active member of several clubs. O'Hare will spend only part of 1937 in this vicinity, as he is moving to New York for business rea- sons, but plans to maintain a part- time office here. The total number of dogs registered to the end of November in the year 1936 was 77,450, of which 7.050 were registered in November. Cocker span- jels were first in that month, with a registration of 1,084. Boston terriers were second, with a total of 899. Scot- tish terriers, with 697 registered in November, were third. Of the 93 breeds registered in November, 67 showed increases or maintained the place they had gained in the same month in 1935. This would seem to indicate a lack of faddishness and the enduring popularity of many breeds. N RESPONSE to requests, this | * column will try to publish answers to doggy questions of general interest. If you are puzzled about something pertaining to your dog. or the dog of anybody else, ask about it. I may know the answer. - | P. A—I would like to have some information or a book about the Dalmatian dog known as the coach dog. Answer—The Dalmatian originated in Dalmatia, a one-time province of Austria. There he was bred as a hunting dog, as well as for guarding the pannier-laden pack horses when they went to market. They were im- ported into England as hunters, as they were believed to be related to the Spanish pointers, which they resembled in conformation. However, the dogs themselves settled their vocation by preferring to trail coaches rather than game. With the passing of horse- drawn vehicles the Dalmatian lost in popularity, but now is coming into vogue again as a household pet. ‘The Dalmatian very much resembles the pointer, although he is somewhat smaller. His head should be clean- cut and of fair length, with well- | dense in color as possible, | mand at the ail-breed shows that it |, The pale green card | ’ and their baby in affectionate prox- | | | have dark eyes, liver-spotted ones light brown or yellow eyes, although wall (blue) eyes are permissible. Color and markings are of paramount im- portance in this breed. Ground color should be pure white and spots as varying in size from a dime to a half dollar. The spots should be round and dis: tinct, with smaller spots on head, ears | and legs. J. A. R—1. Is it necessary for a male dog to be mated once in a while? 2. Does the dog owner get a fee? 3. How can a stranger get in touch with ofher owners of the same breed? | 4. Are there any free-for-all dog shows in this city? Answer—Thousands of dogs never get the opportunity to mate with their kind and do not seem any the worse for the lack. Occasionally some dogs, generally of nervous disposition, show their need of being mated by their behavior. Where mating is not 2. Owners of good specimens of reg- | istered dogs often collect very hand- some fees. A number of well-known champions of various breeds are ad- vertised at stud at $100. Fifty dollars very usual fee. Twenty-five dol- lars is a common fee for reasonably good dogs. However, it generally is AR greetings from the Na- | Impossible to get any fee for a dog of mixed breeds or even for the unregis- tered pure-bred dog. | 3. Strangers in the city interested in dogs can get information about owners of the breeds they are inter- ested in by joining one of the kennel clubs in the vicinity and by watch- ing the advertisements which appear in the Dogs and Pets column of The Sunday Star, where all breeds are ad- | / 7 [m— z ot | vertised sooner or later.
