Athletes Get Action in Scrim-
mage Tomorrow, According
to ExendIne.

Georgetown football players are
looking forward to their frst hard
I work tomorrow when scrimmage will
be INDUCED in. Preliminary work
has been under way for ten days now
and Coach Exendine has ordered real
football for the first time tomorrow.
The Princeton battle ten days off
will mean that all Of the Hilltoppers
will be worked at top speed from
now on. Older Georgetown men re-
member when more than ten years
ago Georgetown sprang o great sur
prise on the Tigers by holding them to
to 0 score. There may be some
thing better to relate this year as
Exendine and his followers are deter
mined to take Princeton into camp.
Speedy" Rush. the new mentor at
Princeton. is starting his first game
against Georgetown and naturally wants
to make a fine Impression. Rush seems
to have q lot OF fine material from last
season. and the Hilltoppers can expect
| to have the opposition OF one of the
strongest teams In the country right
| at the start.
The Blue and Gray players are won

thought that Coach Exendine will
start Brett and showalter. on the ends

CINCINNATI. Sept. 1s.-It was learn

a medical authority that William NJ.
Johnston retired from the singles IN tho
tri-State tennis championship tourna-
ment. which opened hero yesterday.
The excessive stain on his heart and

Despite his physician's orders, John

tional championship partner. Clarence }.
Griffin. against Ella Fottrell. OF Cali
fornia. and Irving Wright. OF Boston.
Johnston and Griffin lost the first set

1t Is likely that Johnston will play

nothing to be lost by giving all the new

There is a lot Of speculation here as

National Golf Handicap
To Be Given Up This Year

After a two years trial the United
States Golf Association has decided
to do away with it's national handicap
list. At a recent meeting OF tho
executive committee the consensus Of
opinion favored q selection Of names
that would stand for championship
eligibility. but along different lines.
The idea is to have tho various
State and sectional associations de-
eide who are and who are not good
enough for championship play, then
submit their findings to the nationa al
body.
Frank L. Woodward. president Of the
United States Golf Association. is firrl
in tho belief that the national handi-
cap list has failed to cover the situa-
ton.
The annual meeting Of the United
States Golf Association will be held
In Chicago at the Blackstone next

City While G. A. R. Veterans
Hold Convention.

come by the Heat and May
Be Unable to Get His Trial as
Early as Thought.
By LOUIS A. DOUGHER.

Manager Griffith will endesvor to
have the games scheduled in Phil
adelphia on September 20 and 30
transferred to this city. He set his
plans in motion today and hopes to
hear from Connie Mack and Ban
Johnson inside of a week. In order
to have these games transferred,
the consent of all clubs in the league
is necessary. 1t is not thought that
there will be any objection to this
move.
The G. A. R. fiftieth annual con-
vention comes to Washington at the
end of this month and, by a quirk
in the American League schedule,
the Griffmen are supposed to 60 to
Philadelphia in the middle of the
convention. When the Old Fox dis
covered this today he hastened to
overcome this weak place in the
schedule. ,
"A lot Of those old veterans may want
to see a ball game while they're here"
said Manager Griffith. 'and 1t seems
foolish for us to- go away, when they
Connie Mack and Ban Johnson and try
to have our games in Philadelphia
transferred to Washington"
Three games remain to be played with
the Mackmen in Philadelphia, one a
postponed contest. This will bring a
double header. 1nasmuch as Connie
Mack receives little or no support from
Philadelphia fans. now that his club
is last and the Phillies are leading the
National League race, 1t Is not OK
pected that the lean leader all make
any strenuous objection to bringing the
games here. where larger crowds will
be assured. AS for the required consent
Of the other clubs, 1t Is hardly expected
that there will be any opposition.
Neither the Griffmcn nor the Mackmen
can be benefited much by the change.
SO far as the pennant Is considered.

mountains of North Dakota, was VIC
