CATHEDRALBEATEN
BY WESTERN HIGH
Buck" Howard Runs Forty
five Yards for Touchdown.

Eleven warriors from Western High
School journeyed out to the Cathedral
School grounds yesterday afternoon, and
did battle with the Episcopal boys on
the Tennallytown gridiron, beating them
in hard-fought game. to o. Cathedral
gained a great deal more ground than
did Western, but lacked the driving pow
er to push the ball over the goal line
when they threatened to tally. On the
other hand, Western managed to concen-
trate her attack at the beginning of the
second half. The game was won when
Buck Howard tore through the West
ern line for 10 yards and made a touch
down. on the kickout Fredericks caught
the ball. but ANONYMOUSLY put it on the
ground, preventing at try at goal. How
ards spectacular runs and long we'll
aimed punts kept Western ahead. his in
dividual playing being the life of his
team. CARRIER made more ground by
himself for Cathedral than the whole
team put together. and if a few Of the
forward passes tried had been completed,
Cathedral would have won handiIy; but
the man receiving the ball repeatedly
muffed it, and Western was returned vic
tor by a small margin.

DRIVER JAY MCNAY
INSTANTLY KILLED
Case Racing Car Turns Turtle
During Trial Spin.

Savannah, Ga, Nov. 2O.-During a spin
to-day about the course over which the
big race for the Vanderbilt Cup is to
be run next week, Jay McNay, the
driver of a Case car was instantly killed
and his mechanician, William Maxwell,
badly injured when the car turned over
as It was rounding a turn. short
time after, Joseph Dawson, driver of a
Marmon car was caught in a jam while
trying 10 pass another car and badly
hurt.
The Vanderbilt Cup and Grand Prize
automobile speed contests open here No
vember q, and many of the entrants be-
gan their practice this morning. McNay
was rounding a sharp turn at a rafting
clip when his car turned turtle and went
sliding along the course for some dis
lance. Both McNay and his mechani-
clan were caught and crushed under the
car.
The death of McNay is pathetic, as he
was to have been married to a young
San Antonio woman Immediately follow
ing one Of the light car races that pre-
cede the big event on November q.
The ceremony was to have taken place
here, and his fiancee has been in So
vannah for several days making arrange
ments for the event.
The accident that has so badly in
jured Dawson occurred on a turn. He
was driving his favorite Marmon car
in practice. In attempting to pass an
other entrant for the big race. Dawson
came into collision on a curve. Both
cars were badly damaged, and Dawson
was crushed between them. The physi-
clans announced tonight that Dawson
probably will recover. Maxwell is not
as seriously injured as Dawson. and he
probably will be out In a week.

GALLAUDET STARS
OUT OF THE GAME
Three Kendall Greeners Are
on Hospital List.

With what promises to be a hard
fought game on. tap Saturday with
Maryland Agricultural College, at Col
lege Park. GalIaudet College football
eleven finds itself without the services
Of its brilliant ends and most reliable
ground-gainers, Indian" Battiste, at left
wing, and Rockwell at the right ex-
treme. The Indian was so severely In
jured in the fierce st. Johns game at
Annapolis that he resigned the Bun and
Blue gridiron captaincy in favor of
Right Tackle Hub" West, as the Indian
is still confined to his room with Sc
we're sprain on his ankle, and threatened
with water on the knee. \
Rockwell was injured in the Johns
Hopkins contest. and has not yet been
able to show his old form. Another val
liable player not able to participate In
the coming battle with the Aggies is
Half Back Red" Classen, who has prac-
tically recovered from his Norfolk in
jury, but Is barred from the game by
the Gallaudet College faculty regulations
governing studies.
The Kendall Greeners appeared on the
field in good condition yesterday after
noon except a few players who have not
yet gotten over the effects of the hard
0 to tie with Washington College Sat
urday. The Chestertown boys defeated
Maryland Agricultural College, II to 8,
week before last, but the Aggies sur
prised the sporting world by handing
Western Maryland College a 6-to-O Jolt
50 there is much speculation
as to the outcome Of the coming Gallau-
Aggies contest.

NORTHEAST FIVE
Def IS ACCEPTED
Belmont BOWlers Will Roll
Picked Team.

In reply to the challenge of the North
eastern Duckpin Leaguers, published in
the Sunday issue of The Washington
Herald, the following communication was
received at this office:
Bowling Editor The Washington Herald:
Dear Sir: In reference to the note
in "BowIers' Gossip in the pink sheet
of The Washington Herald. of Sun
day, November 49, to the effect. THAT
bOwlers of the Northeastern Duckpin
League are ready to demonstrate their
superiority over any team or teams in
the District with any old kind Of pins,
will say that the Belmont duckpin
team of the District League would be
pleased to accommodate them on any
old ALLEY with regulation wooden
pins. JOSEPH MICHAUD. Captain.
The Belmont DuckTin League
Regarding the foregoing, both Sam
LOveless, captain of the A. ]. Bennett &.
Co. team, and Sam CornweH, proprietor
Of the Northeastern alleys, 1858 H street
northeast, stated their willingness to
meet the Belmont team or any other
team from any other league with the
proviso that none of the bowIers of such
team are members of the Northeastern
League. AS Mr.. Michaud is also a mem
Der of the Northeastern, it is naturally
not expected that he will bowl against
the league, as the challenge was directed
at members of other leagues and not
such affiliated with the Northeastern.
The wooden pins are acceptable to Mr.
Cornwell and he will be pleased to set
tie upon a date for the match and ar
range the other details any time desired,
the games to be rolled on the North
eastern alleys.

tant and one strongly favored by the
smaller clubs, is the amendment which

pete as a member of another club with

disbanded and practically ceased to ex
list, or unless the person has taken

LOCAL
GRIDIRON
GOSSIP
By
C. w. SWAN.


1t was learned last night that the
Technical High team would be minus two
regulars when it faces Central on No
vember 30, as Full Back Frazier is at
present confined to his bed, and Lewis,
the husky guard, will not be able to get
Anto the game owing to parental objec-
ton. This will handicap the Manual
Trainers in more than one way, as the
team has been working hard for the
coming battle, and the change that is
necessary In the lineup will make them
start all over again.
Frazier has been doing some mighty
good work for the Blacksmiths, and his
loss will be felt. 'Mooch' Peake Will
most likely be put in full. and while this
lad is rather light, he will be able to
show his plunging ability and speed to
good advantage.
Western is not going to sleep for the
game with Business Friday, as they
played the Cathedral School aggregation
yesterday and won out by one touch
down. McArdle put up a hard game
while Buck" Howard displayed the
speed that has made him one of the best
backs in the series.
Business is going strong at present, and
Western will find a team that will fight
on the Hilltop. The Stenographers will
be a fast, scrappy team. and the lads
from across the creek will have to go
some to land the battle.
The challenge Of the visalia football
team. of Baltimore, offers a chance to
some 15O-pound eleven of this city to get
game with a fast organization in the
Oriole city this Saturday.
rr-fIY h., 4
alias. the team that reaches Capt. Lane
at the Daniel Miller Company, Baltimore.
first secures the open date.
Jack Gass has given universal satisfac-
ton in the scholastic series thus far, and
his work has been commented upon by
many gridiron experts. Jack neither
gives nor receives any kidding while
on the field. and to this can be attributed
his success.
The Vigilants are sure putting up a
great game these days, the only team
that has defeated them in three years
being the crack Georgetown University
eleven that humbled Virginia last Satur-
day. This is going some for a team
whose members work during the day and
only practice at night in the southeast
branch of the Y. NJ. c. A. gymnasium
That the boys hold together and defeat
some of the strongest teams in this sec
ton speaks well for the spirit that d.
reefs them.
A game that is attracting a great
deal of attention is the coming battle
between the all-star Scholastic eleven
that faces the Vigilants Thanksgiving
morning. Some of the best football
players that have participated in high
school game in late years will be seen
in the all-stars' line-up, II the present
plans do not miscarry, and that the
Vigilants will have to hustle to win is
an assured fact. Next Sunday the Wig
ilants will meet the crack Cross Coun-
try Club of Baltimore, but in case OF
the inability of the Baltimore club to
put a fast team in the field, the St. An
drew's aggregation, also from Balti-
more, will face the Vigilants. Whatever
team Manager Joe Oliveri Is able to get
to play the Vigilants comes over. a, fast
and furious game will be played, as he
is booking games with nothing but the
best teams in this vicinity.

YALE ELEVEN has
LIGHT SIGNAL DRILL
Failure of Coaches to Return
Causes Comment.

New Haven, Nov. 20-Between a snow
squall and a rainstorm the Yale eleven
to-day took its first practice Of the week
of the Harvard game. It was a light
signal rehearsal drill, almost none Of the
regular coaches were back to town, and
1t lasted less than an hour.
The failure of the regular staff Of
coaches to remain with the beaten, bat
tered team OF to return to 1t after two
days is being criticised in some quarters.
Field and Shevlin will return tomorrow
and assume charge of the campaign.
To-day Capt. Howe led every regular
in the signal practice except Francis,
who limped about on the campus, but did
not report at the field. His ankle was
slightly turned in the game Saturday, but
he will report by Wednesday, Cooney
was played in his place to-day. Lore was
the only other member of the squad who
did not report and the disputed tackle
positions and full back were filled as
on Saturday.

CENTRAL MEETS
EASTERN TO-DAY
Fast Game Expected OH the
Hilltop.

Central will clash with the light but
fast Eastern High football team this af-
ternOOn on Georgetown Field in the next
to last scheduled scholastic football bat
tic of the season. The game will be
called promptly at p. m.
Eastern is light. but they have. put up
a great game the past two contests, and
Central will not nave walkover by any
means, as the Capitol Hill eleven are
confident of holding the crack o streeters
TO one touchdown, and say that a tie
score may he the result. Eastern has
BEEN practicing daily under Coach Shea
and it looks as the Light Blue and White
eleven will put up a hard fight.
Central will go into the game confident
of taking the battle and while nobody
will take it easy the boys will not be
worked too nard once a touchdown is
made. 'Murph" King is slated to play
left half in place of Fritz Reuter-. who
is out of the game for a short time, and
this will be his first appearance in a
high school contest in the back field.
Should King play as we'll as he did
against the Gallaudet Reserves, Eastern
will have a hard time stopping him.
