AGATES Land Three
FROM The NONPAREILS
Cellar Champs Drop Trio of Games to
Capt. MacMasters Team in
Herald League.

The Agalcs kept up their winning
streak in The Washington Hcrald's
Printers Duckpin League yesterday by
capturing three games from the cellar
champion Nonpareil team in an easy
fashion. In the opening game the Agatcs
came through in big league style. beating

the evening. spilling the pins for a 99.l

Cornell Planning Clean
Up On Track This Year

one of these men can run a mile in less
than four minutes and thirty seconds. so
that il is readily seen very strong four
mile team should be developed.
Cornell will be seen here, in all proba-
bility. in the George Washington games
but on account of having severed athletic
relations with Georgetown the New York
Crs will not appear in the Blue and Gray
meet.
Judged by the showing made in recent
contests with good teams, the George
Washington basketball quint is the best
team ever turned out by the Hatchetites.
The victory over Washington and Lee
on its home floor. followed by the win
from Catholic University. has aroused
the students and more of them are taking
an interest in athletic affairs now than
at any time since football was discon-
tinued.
There can be no question about the
gamenesS of the Hatchctite quint for it
has been amply demonstrated that the
Buff and Blue five has confidence, ability,
and the do-or-die spirit so essential to
success.
Georgetown and George Washington
men are anxiously waiting for the clash
between their respective teams on Fcn-
ruary >, and it Is predicted that the bat
tie which will take place on that date
will be well worth going miles to see.
This game will be the first meeting be-
tween Georgetown and George Washing
ton since the rumpus some years ago
and while all differences have been
smOothed over it is a well-knoNn fact
that there has been no lctup in the
rivalry which has always existed between
these colleges.
The George Washington Rooters' Club
got into action at the Catholic University
game and made things hum with songs
and yells and unclassified noise. At times
the racket was So great 1t threatened to
detract the attention of the players from
the game. Papa McNemar seemed to
enjoy the result of his laborious efforts
to instill the old pep and his face was
wreathed in smiles

Ithacans Strong in Everything
But the Dashes- Much
Expected of Lewis.
OTHER SPORTING GOSSIP
BY NAT T. WORLEY.

Reports from Ithaca indicate that Cor
nell is getting ready to make another
cleanup in the indoor meets this winter
The Red and White track team has been
stirring around and putting in some dill
gent work under the careful scrutiny of
Coach Jack Moakley. special attention
being given at this time to the candidates
for the One-mile relay team which is to
run against Harvard in the Boston Ath-
letic Association games early in Feb
ruaTy.
Cornell has any number of men capable
Of giving a good account of themselves
in the distance runs and in the sprints, as
well as much good material for the
jumps and the weight events. but Coach
MOakley is burning the midnight oil in
search of some real quarter -milcrs, for
they are as scarce as hens teeth.
This situation presents nothing new,
however, as the New Workers were in the
same fix last year, and managed to worry
along with considerable credit at the fin
ish of the season. Cornelrs best man
seems to be in the person of one John
Lewis, whose work to date puts him in i
class with Harvards best. Starr, Preis-
ter and Ingersoll are working their heads
off. and while they have to be reckoned
with. none of them appear to be the
equal of Lewis.
In the two-mile and four-mile relay
races the Ithacans should be able to de-
velop two strong teams, and in the four
mile event Jack MOaklcy should turn out
a champion team for the year.
Among the best half-milers available
are WindnaSle, Speiden, Irish. Lewis ana
Potter. while the four-mils team would
include Speiden. Potter. HOffmire, Cor

OTHER PROMINENT MEN

1T looks as if those birds over in

we have the best chance since the club

You gentlemen know that Connie

made that the Nationals second team
stop over in Alexandria en- route from
Charlottesville. playing the Cardinals in
their own homo town, on either March
q or IS.
Griffith agreed to this game and the
Cardinal management accepted the pro
position. the date will be decided later

Aby H. NA. VIII Puy, fL1AflSiUh VI IA
To get the best use out of winter
pastures of wheat, barley, oats, rye or
clovers, attention must be paid to
utilizing them with the right kind of
live stock at the right time. There is
a marked difference in the ability of
different kinds Of animals to make use
of foodstuffs of varying coarseness,
due to the differences in the capacity
of their stomachs. The pigs stomach
has an average capacity Of only about
two gallons, while that Of the COW has
an average capacity OF sixty-six gal
Ions and the sheep eight gallons, SO
that the pig cannot possibly use as
bulky material to advantage as either
of the other animals. For this reason
the pigs should have the first chance
at the pastures, and while the
forage is young and tender. Ii one
watches a bunch of pigs grazing on a
pasture of any of the common crops,
he will observe that they chew and
swallow the green material If it is
young and tender, but If 1t has become
coarse they chew 1t and spit 1t out,
simply because they cannot use 1t to
advantage Cattle and sheep do much
better on the cider pastures than do
pigs. Anothe. reason Of much i'm

According to detail reports in Men,

Culpepper is holding the most start
ling revival ever known in a city the
size of Forrest City. On last Thurs
day they held an open meeting by the
leading men Of the state, including
the governor and members of the
supreme and other courts. There
seems to have been factional differ
ences of serious character with the
leaders in the town. This meeting
was for the purpose Of burying the
hatchet, which was publicly done in
the court yard, and tree planted.
The meeting is being held in the
court house. Friday night was a
monster demonstration where the cir
cult court judge and sheriff, our
former townsman DR.. ]. F. McDougle,
came out and joined the throng Of
the redeemed. Over 200 conversions
up to Friday night. Even Culpepper
admitted it far exceeded any meeting
he ever was in on account Of the hold
the holy spirit got on the sensible,
able and prominent citizens Of the
town. 1t has certainly been a truly
