BY FRANK H. YOUNG.

The Columbia Country Club will
be the Mecca" OF all local golf
and tennis enthusiasts today when
all-star matches in both sports will
be played. Charles "Chick") Evans
and Fred Mcleod will meet James
Barnes and Walter c. HaGan in a
thirty-six hole golf match. with
rounds being scheduled at 20 and
O'Clock. while on the courts Con-
rad B. Doyle and Chuck" Gar
land will face each other at 1890,
with an interesting doubles match
being carded for p. m.
These matches will be a splendid
opportunity for followers of both
games to kill two birds with one
stone" The card offered is the
best that gan be obtained from the
ranks of either sport while all of
the financial returns will go direct
to the Woodley Park chapter of
the American Red Cross for re-
lief work. all of the contestants
having volunteered their time and
paid their own expenses here in
order to compete.
Although the other three have been
here before, this will be Evans first
local appearance. He is the present
holder of both the open and amateur
national titles and is probably the
best known player in the country to-
day. Mcleod. his partner, is the
professional of the host organization

Frank Sherman. former world
champion pocket billiard player.
who numbered his friends by the
legion, died at his home, GIL Quincy
street northwest, early yesterday
morning.
Sherman. known throughout the
country wherever pocket billiards
were played. was one of those fig
ures that loom up in the sporting
world, standing for all that is best
and good in the game" His death
followed a period of i'll health which
lately took a serious turn and his
death which came as q blow to hun
dreds OF his friends was not expect
ed by his intimates.
He will be buried Monday after
noon from his home. Funeral serv-
ices will be conducted by Rev. Buck
at / o'clock. Members of st. Johns
Lodge of Masons will turn out in
force to pay last honors to him
He will be buried in Rock Creek
cemetery.
1t was in 1906 that Sherman eK-
hibited his skill and won the biggest
laurels pocket billiards could give
him. In a match played in Boston
he defeated Clearwater and De Orc
among other victims OF his skill, and
won the world championship in five
straight games
Again in 1909, this time in Chicago.
Sherman demonstrated his ability to
defeat the best shots in the country.
winning six out Of seven games for
the world championship. Jerome
Keough and De Oro, once more were
among his defeated opponents.
Sherman never boasted of his vic
tories nor his monetary reward, nor
did he complain Of his losses. He
riayed pocket billiards. AMI he be-
came world champion because he
loved the game.
Whatever Frank Sherman took
part in was clean. 1t could not be
otherwise. He endeared himself to
