NONPARIELS TRIM AGATES
IN INAUGURAL MATCHES

The Washington Herald Printers Duck
pin League got on to q grand start yes
terday on the Northeast alleys, when the
NonpareIls, under the leadership Of Ed
ward Beck, captured three games from
Manager MacMaster's Agates. On the
opening set the Nonpareils landed the
contest rather easily defeating the
Agates by forty-thres pins, having a
score Of $50 to 4s6.
The second set was closely contested,
and not until Beck and Harrington had
rolled the final boxes was the set decided
In this game MacMaster's outfit totaled
524 pins, but they were nosed out Of the
Iaurels when the Nonpareils toppled 54l
pins.
Improving their games in each set, the
Nonpareils made the high set mark Of
the evening when they spilled $50 pins.
This pace proved to be too strong for the
Agates and the best their efforts afforded
were $50. The individual rolling OF Beck,
Harrington and Mallard for the winners
and the work of MacMaster and Lynch
for the losers were the features. Scores:

two games OF the Blue and Gray eleven
and a good bodyl OF rooters are ex-
pected to be on hand to cheer Capt.
Freddy Murray's team to victory when
they clash with Virginia Medical Col
lege Saturday.
Ono hours hard scrimmage, in which
the forward pass proved a big factor,
was the work cut out for the Hilltop
pers yesterday. Shifts were again
made in the back field, this time Sam
Foley, the Manhattan quarter back,
being given q rest owing to being un-
der weight and little Callinan filled
the pivot position in grand style.
Hugh Golden famed for his work on
the track team was put in at left half
back, and brilliant dashes along with be-
ing on the receiving end of forward
passes wer the features of the after
Moons work. Noark again showed up
in a brilliant style in the full back posi-
ton his vicious assaults upon the scrub
line, netting the varsity long gains.
Capt. Freddy Murray showed up ex-
ceptionally we'll, and his run of twenty
five yards through q broken field being
the longest of the afternoon. Bresham,
playing quarter for the scrub, proved to
be the redeemlng feature Of the hard
work of the second string men, although
Landrau, King and Fitzgerald were con-

up big holes in the scrub line and was

FOR Big BOUT
Kid Marshall Feels Confident
Of Trimming Young Thomas
Over Long Route.
BOTH WILL BE READY
Local Fight Fans Promised Best Scrap
IN History of Ardmore
Club.
BOTH WILL BE READY

Yes this boy Thomas has gotten the
decision over me In two battles, but
they were OF this six-round variety and
when II comes to going twenty rounds
then that is a different matter. know
l can beat him in long fight and will
prove this when we step in the ring at
Arcmore on the 18th" This Is what Kid
Marshall has to say about his coming
night with Kid Thomas who has quite
O reputation around this neck OF the
woods as a fighter,
His side Of the argument 10 very short
he is quoted as saying: Il am going to
give this fellow Marshall an awful wal
loping when we meet and It will not be
the first time that I have turned the
trick" feel sure OF giving him the same
treatment that I gave him in a six
round affair in our twenty-round engage
ment
This fight promises to be the best that
has been staged in the Ardmore arena
since the opening. These two boys have
met three times before and twice Thomas
has been given the decision. and the last
time they engaged in a fight was at the
Elks' Carnival at Marshall Hall, when
the boys fought over the six-round route.
No decision was given, but the public
opinion was all in favor OF Kid Thomas.
As this bout Is the first twenty-round
affair that has been staged at the Ard
more arena the promoters are over
anxious about the youngsters. This Is q
grudge fight from the first, and 1t will
not prove slow, embarrassing affair.
Both boys have been hard at work
training, and when they enter the ring
will weigh in at the stated weight OF I22
pounds, give or take two pounds. Mar
shall will have the hardest time of IT, as
he now weighs close to LII pounds, and
this will necessitate hard. work to bring
him down to the fighting weight Thomas,
on the other hand, is close to weight now,
tipping the beams at Ia pounds. Both of
the contestants are sure Of making the
correct weight and are also sure Of win
ming the fight

thusiastic crowd was on hand to give
the boys a good send-off. Transportation
was unfortunate, and lost two out Of

both teams put up a very creditable
showing. Billy Williams, Of the Trans

for the night with lis, which is pretty
good for a starter.

New York, Oct. S-A triple by Bescher

by Doyle's safe hit, gave the Giants the
decision over the Yankees in the first

The Giants scored frst, tallying one by

ATMOSPHERE OF SADNESS, RATHER
THAN HILARITY, In GREAT BRITAIN
It Will Long Be Remem-
bered as a Military Christ
masIn London the At
tendance at Churches Was
Unusually Large.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

London, Dec. 25.-This Christmas
! long will be remembered by Great
Britain as a military Christmas
the object Of attention and admira-
tion. There was great decrease in
the customary railway crowds and Cd
villains visiting their homes, but al
most the usual number Of trains were
running.
London particularly seemed to swarm
with uniforms. Conspicuous among
them were several thousand Canadians.
Christmas was Sabbathlii1e in London
because the theaters were closed and
the hotels and public houses keep
Sunday hours. A few hours of day
light today, however, was almost
bright. This was a rare phenomenon
for an English winter.
All ranks of the troops at the front
were loaded down with Christmas pres
ents. Princess Mary's fund for gifts
amounted to nearly eight hundred
thousand dollars. Newspapers and So
cieties raised funds also, which were
devoted to tobacco, puddings Iother
luxuries for the soldiers.
King George and Queen Mary sent
messages to the army and feet and
also Christmas cards bearing their por-
traits to every soldier and sailor.
Hundreds Of Belgian wounded in
hospitals and Belgian refugees were
recipients of many attentions. Even
the German military prisoners and ci-
villains in detention camps had Christ
mas trees with gifts from home and
presents from wealthy Germans in
England.
The general atmosphere. of course,
was one OF sadness, rather hilarity.
The attendance at churches was usual
ly large. Dean Inge, at st. Pauls,
referred in a complimentary way to
the United States and the century
of peace between it and Great Britain.
The dean thought, however, that Amer
lea had failed to achieve a type OF
Christianity which Christ would ap-
prove He said competitive indus
trialism now fulfilled this promise and
criticized the plea that business is
business"

SOUTH SUBJECT
OF LONGREPORT
Rockefeller Says 1t VIII
Come When the Peoples
Resources Are Enlarged
Urges Extensive Farm
Demonstration Work.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS

New York, Dec. 24.-The efforts made
to promote education in the south were
summarized tonight in the sixth in
stallment of the report of the general
education BOARD founded by John D.
Rockefeller. The report said it soon
became clear that adequate develop
ment cannot take place till the peo-
pies resources are enlarged.
1t added that these conditions were
not primarily due to a lack of interest
in popular education, but is due to the
small income of the individuals in the
south engaged in agriculture as com
pared to sections of the north.
1.-The great bulk of the people of the
southern states are simply not earning
enought to provide proper homes and
support for good schools"
The communication says the board
proceeded on the theory that to gain
a scientific knowledge of farming il
would cause the southern agricultur~
ist gladly to support better schools.
The report pointed out that the fed
eraI government could not carry out
the program in this direction, hecau-e
while it is taking measures 10 combat
the Boil Weevel it could not appropri-
ate money for strictly educational
purposes.
The board decided to work in con-
junction with the government. The
rapid extension of farm demonstration
work was then dwelt on. He said it
proved so successful that the govern
ment can now take it over to extend
purely educational farm demonstra-
tions. Summarizing the total cost Of
the work to date the report says the
governments has appropriated $1,922-
300; the general education board
$925,75O while S1,069,40 has been OBJ
tanned from other sources.
