Roberts, who was the star quarter

stated he is very proficient as a stu

with high marks. The medical exam

Harry Pollock. manager of Freddy

considerable trouble of late in. the
matches he has arranged for the cham

tees to the effect that efforts have
been made on three different occasions
of late to try to take the champion
ship away from Welsh by other than
fair means. Whether this is correct
some very strong arguments in his
favor However, it is not possible that
the real sporting men of America
would attempt such a thing. There
same as in any other. who might try
to rob a title holder of his crown
by fair means or foul, but those people
are few and far between.
Mr.. Pollock has also taken occasion
to warn managers of fighters against
dealing with certain promoters. as he
claims he did not get fair treatment
and others would likely be treated the
same way. 1t is too bad that the box
ing game should suffer from such oc.
currences, but, like all other sports, IL
has its ups and downs. There may
come some good of the whole affair, for
it will be a warning to promoters in
way, and also managers and fighters
In. the meantime the boxing commis,
sions in various states are doing all
that is possible to keep the game
clean and above-board. What Is neeo-
ed most of all is an Organization such

INTERESTING GOLF NOTES FROM
ALL THE LOCAL CLUBS

nounces that details of the coming Rod
| man Wanamaker tournament are soor
| surance that the affair will be an an.
| nual event, but it is a difficult thing
| to gather opinion from pros scattered
all over the country and have 8
sem blance of agreement
The pros are attracting a great deal
! of attention this year. their tourna
| ments being almost as great in number
as those of the amateurs. Walter
Hagen has the edge to date in the mum
ber of events won. but the record OF
| the elongated Jim Barnes must not be
overlooked. Starting with the winning
or the north and south open champion
ship at Pinehurst in the spring. Barnes
has played brilliant and consistent goIf
in every tourney which he has entered
| He placed third in the national open
was runner-up in the metropolitan
won the newspaper tourney and was
third in the Shawnee event last week
The feats of Hagen overshadow the
phenom from Philly, however Hagen
won the metropolitan title after a tie
with Barnes and Hoffner. placed well
the field for time and won the
Shawnee event, breaking into a lead
the first day and never being headed
although Gil Nichols by a round OF
II the morning of the second day tied
with him.
This week will witness the settle
ment of the western open championship
title now held by that sterling player
Tom Mcnamara. 1t is expected that
the field of pros will be as great at
Blue Mound as that which graced the
course at Minneapolis.
Fred Mcleod, although he is one of
the smallest men in the pro ranks, is
also one Of the longest hitters in the
country. Not long ago he drove a ball
off the second tee at Columbia which
finished across the brook, a distance of
305 yards, and the ball must have
jumpeY the brook on the first bound
for IL it had been rolling slowly it
could not have crossed. He is not
playing as well as he would like, how
ever, for the past few times he has
been around the Columbia course he
has had one or two bad holes, chiefly
owing to the difficulty he encounters
off the tee. Take heart, o ye perspiring
buffers, for even the best ofttimes go
wrong.
The round robin tournament of the
Chevy Chase Club. which is confined
the organization, is being played, al
though to date not many of the eligi-
BILE contestants have gotten together
Last week B. S. Minor and E. NJ
Weaver won matches.
A new walk of brick, laid level with
the surface of the ground. has been
built between the west porch of the
Chevy Chase Club house and the caddy
house.
Jack Burgess Is still confined to his
bed and will probably not be out be-
fore Tuesday.

March Il, 1916.
Editor Register-A large number Of
people in this section OF country desired
TO 90 TO Baltimore to hear Billy Sunday
during his stay in that city. Application
was made for an excursion train, but the
railroad baronS did not choose to grant
the request. AT the same time the Balti-
more & Ohio officials were falling over
one another to oblige the friends OF Mr.
Henry q. Davis and Mr.. William O. Brown
by giving them special trains TO carry the
remains OF these gentlemen 10 their re-
spective homes. AS we do not belong TO
the West Virginia plutocTacy, the man
agement did not have any time for the
request OF our people. Ii looks very
much as il the present management OF the
b. & o. has outlived IFS usefulness and
that il is time for a change. A.

We found that number OF former resi-
dents Of Shepherdstown were leading in
the work OF directing affairs that made the
convention so pleasant for the delegates.
H. Frank Greenwood, one OF the big men
in the great railroad shops, was chairman
OF the important committee on transporta-
ton and hotels, and the visitors owed
muchto his thoughtfulness. Henry Barn
hart was busy looking after details at the
auditorium, and VIM. F Baker and Samuel
d Barnhart were active also about the
convention. J.H. Marsteller was general
Chairman OF the committees, and was the
right man in the right place.

A CORRESPONDENT OF the Register from
Shenandoah Junction expresses some
feeling because the B. & o. Railroad re-
fuses to run excursion trains 10 Baltimore
for the accommodation OF the hundreds
OF persons who would like 10 90 hear the
famous evangelistin an inexpensive way.
We do not doubt that there are thousands
OF persons in the two Vlrginias who would
be glad of an opportunity TO use pop
ar-priced excursion TO Baltimore, but
the railroad officials stupidity ignore this
desire, which gets them in bad with the
people and at the same time cuts them
out of revenues which the railroads them
selves declare they badly need.

THE great battle OF Verdun which has
been wsging for weeks past seems to be
about over, and all that the Germans have
to show for the loss OF hundreds OF thou
sands of men who were killed or wounded
in this terrible struggle is gain OF few
insignificant sections OF French trenches.
Men who have never seen one another
have been slaughtering each other by the
tens OF thousands few OF them know
why. This sacrifice has been in vain so
far, and the preparedness Of the Germans
has been nullified by the desperate cour-
age OF the French.

taxes have been greatly increased under
the present administration. You cannot
argue away a tax bill.
