Beaten by Tollgate

The Washington Rovers Hurting Club
divided its squad into two teams yes
terday, Capt. Hanlon taking charge of
the boys from the Tollgate. while
Maurice Curtain was leader OF the team
from the First Ward. Dividing the squad
into teams from different sections caused

representatives from the First Ward in
a battle marked with features, by a
count of and point to and ! point
For eight minutes these teams battled
on a nick and tuck basis and then CAPT
Hsnlon who led the boys from Northeast

puck between the goal posts for the first
goal This lead was but short lived as
Hurley came through with a score In two
minutes and repeated again in four min
utes, which put the First Ward tribe
in front Tom Dorsey then started to
show his, ability at the ancient Irish game
and pucked one between the posts which
gave the First Ward team a good lead.
Charlie Hyder, who is famed at long
driving, shot in another just before time

boys from "Foggy Bottom leading by

LIVE SPORT WIRES WITH
A CAPITAL P.PUNCH

If the Eastern football experts" We're
forced to make their selection for ALL
American full back between the follow
ing pair. whom do you think they'd
choose:
% Eddie Mahan, OF Harvard. who
scored only two otuchdowns for Harvard
In something like five games; who has
kicked only four or FIVE field goals;
whose fumbling gave Cornell its chance
to beat Harvard
Or
~ Jerry Deprato. of the Michigan Ag-
gies, who has torn to shreds practically
every line that faced him; who ranks as
one of the best goal-after-touchdown
lickers in the country: who has few
peers in the drop-kicking game; who
scored something like 100 points for his
team in the first four games; who made
three touchdowns one goal from field
ana three goals after touchdown against
the University of Michigan, total of
twenty-four points, the entire score made
by his team.
Whom would they choose?
Right you are, Oscar; they would
choose Mahan because. y'no. Mahan goes
.1o "Faih HaTvard"-and Jerry doesn't
go to Harvard or Yale or Princeton.

What the Figgers Tell.

Shepherd C. Barclay, demon statistician
and newspaper fellow, who DISCUSSES him
self under the name of Monty" has Just
compiled some statistics for Harry
Hampstead. which shows that the Giants
hit better abaord than at home during the
1915 season. Prof. Barclay denies that he
used a miscrOcope to find the hits made
by Jawn McGraw's crowd.
The giant owner wanted to know
whether he could offer the signs on the
center field fences of the out-of-town
clubs as an alibi for the weak hitting of
the Giants. but Prof. Barclays figures
show that the Giants. despite the handi-
cap Of glaring center field signs on the
road. hit for 80 on the Polo grounds,
where center field signs are quite ex-
tinct.
