GOOD WHISPERS

Stubbornness a Big Handicap
at the Silent
Game.

The common fault OF the devotees OF
whist Is refusing to accept the inevita-

The short-suiter carefully nurses his ten
aces and leads supporting cards to the
opponents strong suits. while his part

wishes to catch. The long-suiter contin-
ues his attempts to establish a worthless
suit Honors are sacrificed, re-entries
are lost when perhaps the first round re-
veals the hopelessness Of the undertaking.
Such faults are due to our Unborn stub
bornness. Bravery Is commendable. but
It should not waste It's energy on a Tor
lorn hope.
Whist writer's are constantly speaking
Of the folly OF switching suits Notwith-
standing their advice. the error Is very
common. Perhaps the situations have
not been made sufficiently clear. There is
one case especially where many good
players fail. On the second round OF their
partners suit It is discovered that one OF

in the face Of the most dire calamities
Is fitting counterpart to the one with
grasshopper tactics.

STRIKES AND SPARES.

Goodman of the Resolutes averaged 10Y
against the Serenaders last week.
Holoran had an average Of Ill in the
Fowls-Jo hnnies match. He certainly is
one husky fowl.
Capt. Garrett was apparently on good
terms with the pins last week, averaging
POI. Nice work, George.
The CAROLS dropped two games to the
Potomacs. but came back in the third.
Harlow got in with game of 221.
Rose Of the Aggies had a Ill game in
the set with the G. P. o. Splits and high
games never did go good together.
Sherwood did good work for the Post
Office in the Bureau set. bowling 1873, PIP
and 1872, an average Of 1875.
ODonnell got oil game in the Carroll
Oriental set. If any bowler can find a
groove, Dannie is the one.
Land put up a set OF 30. 191 and 225
against the Post Office team. Sandy
surely had things coming his way.
Harlow had a string OF 1853, 100 and
172 games against the Orientals. Why.
Tommie! and on your home alleys, too.
Fritz bowled $780, 1oG and 153 on the
Carroll alleys Very consistent work. but
hardly up to the standard OF this bowler:
The Interiors took three games from the
Bureau quint last week. 1t looks as II
the Interiors might yet get In the run

The Brghtwood team in the Sunday
School League bowled a 969 game against
West Washington. Lansdale helped some
with a 234 game.
Bruner Of the Church League bowled

dropped to game of 106. Some bowlers
find it mighty hard to bowl three games
in a row and get good scores.
Roberts started with 160 bowled 143 in
his second game and wound up with a 124
score Wonder what he would have
bowled had there been one more game.
Helmerichs scored 11S in his first game
In the Bureau-Post Office set, but Ted
made good in his second and third with
scores over the double century mark.
The Post Office team lost the second
game to the Navy Yard by pins, but
made sure of the last by bowling 945 to
the other teams 921. Sherwood and
Douglass had games of 211 and pa.
Williams has been leading in the duck
pin tournament now on at the Royal al
leys 1t looks like a runaway for this
good bowler, but one is inclined to think
there may be one or two sleepers trailing
along in the ruck.
Collins leads in the down and out

put up the queen is the only way to save
a trick as the cards lay. but such Q play

deal from the Boston Transcript: Trump.

ginning Of a signal. In any event. he can
hardly do else than make try for his big
suit. now fully established. as his only
hope lies in immediate extraction OF
trumps.
Trick s-B's play Is an illustration Of the
decadence among modern players, Of the
old theory that partners trump lead must
be returned at once and at any cost. q Is
evidently out OF trumps unless he Is pos
sibly false-carding the 10. As B is en-
tirely void OF one suit, which Is presum-
ably tho adversary's, he does not return
the trump, but starts to establish his
spades. If A. on getting another lead,
wishes to continue the trump, he can do
SO.
Trick At is seldom justifable to take
up an adverse trump lead. OF course,
there are conditions which Justify such a
course, which the fine player readily per-
ceives. But this Is not one Of them, as 7
found out to his cost.

The United States gained an easy victory

Billiards and pool were not as much In

There is no change to be recorded this

leading teams In the championship com

all are holding on tenaciously to their
standing as previously reported. It Will
be seen that Government Printing once
and Agriculture are tied for first honors
with two wins and a draw-the draw be-
ing the individual encounter between
them-while Interior is q close third with
two wins and one loss. An important
match that may have q considerable
bearing on the situation 10 scheduled to

ture A. The partisans Of both teams are
looking for q keen struggle. since . clear

Printers have already defeated Interior
A and. as before stated. have drawn with
Agriculture A. SO that at tho present writ
ing their position Is rather an env3ayle
one.
The results Of the recent matches were
as follows: War-Navy and Independent
Bureaus fought It out to q draw: the
winners for the former being Moore and
Harrison. while Bursley and Run carried
of the honors for the Independents. Ex.
cellent play was exhibited by Bursley ana
Moore in this match. but Molkow fell q
victim to his own indiscretion. as his
game was in good condition when he at
tempted an unsound sacrifice, whereupon
Ruff by correct play forced him into .
losing position.
Treasury made a runaway affair Of ite

and Upper having no difficulty In win
ming. respectively, from Written. Louns-
berry and Spencer. The fourth game.
which was to have been contested BY
Satterley and Dimick was abandoned
under the circumstances.
The two Agriculture teams came TO-
gether Wednesday. but only two OF the
games were completed. both resulting In
favor Of the seniors Huntington and
board I. there being little to choose in
the positions after couple OF hours
play. Huntington. however, effected a

TECH WORKS HARD
AT BASKET BALL

Prospects for a successful basket ball
season at Technical High School are very
promising. and the fact that a fast bunch
of material is on hand from which to
pick a five, makes the Machinists more
than confident of turning out team
local preparatory school teams.
Being unable to find a suitable place
for practice. the team has been on the
verge Of disbandinS during the past two
weeks. but the Y. NJ. c. A. offered the
high school boys the use Of its gymnasium
at least two days a week, affording them
an excellent opportunity to get in the
much-desired team work. As most OF the
candidates for positions on the quin,
have had considerable experience at the
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1908-12-27

In order to obtain the right sort of
practice which will enable the captain
and manager to discover the strong and
weak places on the teams, games will
be played weekly with the local junior
quint of the Y. NJ. c. A. which will
undoubtedly afford the high school boys
satisfactory practice to enable them to
obtain excellent results.
The team will be captained by IIildreth,
who has displayed considerable knowl-
edge of the game on several of the best
quints around town. and the experience
he has received will undoubtedly make
him a capable leader and enable him to
develop the novices in the fine points OF
the game. Kuehn. who has also dis.
played much class on the basket ball
floor around the city, was the unanimous
choice for manager. and he is rapidly
filing out an extensive schedule with all
the local high and preparatory schools
with which he can arrange satisfactory
engagements.

Former CYclist.

NEW YORK. December 26.-Richard
Arnst, who won the worlds sculling
championship in New Zealand recently
from w. Webb. the former titleholder,
was a cyclist before he took up rowing
He won the Sydney thousand, one Of the
most important cycle meets in Australia
IN 1906. Arnst is q giant. He stands six
feet six inches in his stockings and
weighs 80 pounds. 1t was while riding a
wheel that he attracted the attention of a
number of rowing men who introduced
him to aquatics. He became a star sculler
from the start, but for a long time he was
not recognized although he repeatedly
challenged for the championship.

neighboring high schools.
Hutchinson, who was one of the best
all-around players on Eastern's nine last
season. will be greatly missed on the base

He was one Of the best shortstops in the
league, besides being well up in batting,
and scored many runs for the southeast
