HOME K|CKERS At
LAST BEAT RIVALS
Washington Soccer Team
Scores Brilliant Victory Over
Sons of st. George.

Washington soccer football team is
today convinced that II has evened
some old scores with the Sons OF ST.
George Club Of Baltimore by defeating
their ancient rivals yesterday 8 to .. 1t
was one of the most thrilling exhibitions
ever staged on a local field. Only by
hard uphill fighting did the Capital
team succeed In turning a possible de-
feat into a well-earned victory
This was the fourth time which the
teams have been matched this year. all
results Of other contests being victories
for st. George. In all previous en-
counters the victory of the Baltimor-
cans was not nearly so brilliant as the
one secured by Washington.
In the early stages of the game. and
In fact throughout the entire first half.
II seemed that the Capital representa-
tlyes would be forced TO endure another
defeat. At the close OF the first period
of play, Baltimore was leading by . to
0. with Washington clearly outplayed.
However. this was the end Of the
Sons scores. for Washington came
through with a grand rally and sc-
quilted themselves In wonderful style.
The home kickers appeared to have re-
gained form and played to one another
perfectly. As a result they booted The
ball into goal three times, while the
desperate efforts of their firing oppo-
nents were wasted before splendid
defense

RIDIcUL0USLY Low
Actor-PIayer Stops In Washing
ton to Visit With Some Of
His Theatrical Friends.

Despite statements which emanated
from Philadelphia last month to the ef.
feet that Mike Donlin had signed 1913
contract with Charlie Docin's Philadel-
phia Nationals, the former Pirate has
net put his name tn any contract for
the coming season. Not orly has Dpn-
lin refraincd fiem signing for the COM

q verbal agreement with any Of the big
league clubs.
Donlfn, who is doing turn IN vaude-

Doniin admitted that Charlie Doom
had returned ii unsigned. The old Pi-
rate player referred 20 Dooin's offer as
"toy contract" which caused him to
laugh when he read it. Last year Dom
lin received $500 with the Pirates 1t
was rumored that the Phillies offered
him but $500.
Doom was reported to have been par
ticularfy anxious to secure Donlin for
his ptnch-hittfng ability. In that capac-
tty his work with the Pirates hovered in
The vicinity of 300. Dooin's original
idea when he first started to dicker with
Donltn was to give him a chance to

TRIANGLE MEET FOR
Penn, VIRGINIA, AND
GEORGETOWN LIKELY
Managers of Three Track
Teams Trying to Schedule
Events for March.

II the plans Of Manager Darr Of the
Georgetown University track team ma
terialize a triangular track meet will be
held in this city, late In March. be-
tween Georgetown. University of Penn
sylvania and the University Of Virginia.
According 10 the present plans the meet
will be held on the Hilltop field, and
will include all of the usual events Of a
track and field meet with the exception
OF the hammer throw and discus throw,
which are thought to be too dangerous
for a field the size of the West End
grounds.
For many years there has been a de-
meni for an outdoor meet between
Georgetown and Virginia, but nothing
has ever resulted from the discussion
until this season. when the rival man
ayers got together and decided to hold
the meet II possible.
In case the proposition for the three
cornered meet falls through, George
town and Virginia will doubtless hold
the dual meet in Charlottesville, as had
been Originally planned, although II is
not likely that an athletic meet would
attract as large a crowd in the Vir-
ginia town as in the Capital City.

SHEPPARD REFUSED
PERMISSION TO RUN
MiddIe-Distance Star Is Barred
From Competing in Thir-
teenth Regiment Armory.

NEW YORK. Feb. l0.-Melyin W.
Sheppard. the veteran middle distance
runner OF the Irish-Amerfcan A. C.. has
Thirteenth Regiment Armory In Brook
lyn. at the games Of Battery E. on Lin
coins Birthday afternoon. This action
was taken by Col. Charles o. Davis be-
cause Sheppard has a dishonorable dis
charge from the National Guard stand
Ing against him.
Since the time Sheppard was forced
to leave the Fourteenth Regiment after
his discharge from the Twenty-second.
he has beer allowed to compete In
games at almost every armory In the
greater city. The Military Athletic
League has made a special award to
Sheppard of the prizes which were held
up at the time he was disqualified, and
has left Il to the commanding officers
of regimental organizations to decide
whether or not the Irish athlete can run
In the armories.
This is the first time Sheppard has
attempted to run I'm the Thirteenth.
Colonel Davis refused to be guided by
the conduct Of other commanding Of
ficers. and declared that he did not
think II proper to grant any privileges
to man who received a dishonorable
discharge.
Sheppard has been trying for months
to have the case reopened so that he
may have a chance to get back into
good standing IN the guard. II ig un-
derstood that the officers OF the Twen-
ty-second Engineers have taken a DIFF
ferent view OF the afHair. and would be
