SOUTH ATLANTIC
CLASSIC WILL BE
HELD ON MARCH 5
Big Brookland Gym Is
Again Selected for An
nual Athletic Event.

The committee on arrangements
for the second annual South Allan
tic Intercollegiate Track Meet has
decided on a definite date for the
classic this year. 1t will be held in
the large gymnasium at the Catho-
lie University on the night OF
March 5.
The date was agreed upon at a
conference held yesterday between
Curly Byrd, representing the assO-
citation, and Thomas J. McKay-
naugh, chairman of the executive
council. acting for the Catholic Uni
yersity.
The event which made its initial
appearance in this city last March
was heralded as a success by the
throng that journeyed to Brookland
to witness It, In the meet last
March the athletic authorities at the
Red and Black institution were
greatly handicapped by the fact that
1t was the first time they had VEN
tured into such a field of athletic
endeavOr. However, 1t takes "a
voyage to learn" and the same men
this year are well acquainted with
the various details entering into the
project. 1t seems certain that things
will move with smoothness on this
occasion.
The gymnasium at the Catholic
University is an ideal place for the
AFFAIR. Ample accommodations are
assured to the various partici-
pants who come from the different
colleges affiliated with the S. A. l..
A. a. Last year the winner turned
up in Georgetown, with Catholic
University second. Among the
will undoubtedly enter again this
March are Virginia Military Acad-
emy. Virginia Poly, Lehigh, Uni
yersity of Virginia, George Wash
ington, .Gallaudet and Johns Hop
kins.
In addition to the South Atlantic
championship events, the various
prep and high schools in Washing
ton, Maryland and Virginia, will
also contest for the southern
scholastic championships with the
following entries: Central. Western,
Eastern and Tech. High Schools, of
this city; Staunton Military Acad-
cmy. Tome Institute. Fishburne
Military Academy. Woodberry For
est Prep. Baltimore College and
Baltimore City College.
The date as selected is on the
night following the inauguration,
when friends and relatives of many
Of the entrants will be in town and
will be thus afforded the OppOrtU-
nifty OF seeing their favorites per-
form against real competition.

LudendOrf FaU0rs
Drive on SoUiets

BERLIN, Jan. 15.-Gen. Luden-
dorff. in a telegram today from
Munich, declares that he is in no
way associated with Gen. Hoffman
in the latter's plan for international
military Intervention in Russia to
overthrow the Soviets and stamp
out Bolshevism in its own home.
Gen. Ludendorff, however. implies
that although he has nothing to do
with the movement, he is in SYM
pathy with the idea.
He says: Il consider Hoffman's
idea as impossible of being carried
out because the cultured nations
are not united or agreed. Germany
continues to be oppressed through
the Versailles peace treaty and
Germany Is split-divided into a
right and left. Therein. l see a sit
uation for Germany and the world
which is exceedingly grave"

MELLON CABINET
BOOM IN MARION
Oliver Tells Harding
Pennsylvania Is Be-
hind Him.
ny SAMUEL w. BELL.

MARION, Ohio, Pan. 15.-The drive
for Andrew Mellon. of Pittsburgh.
as Secretary of the Treasury in
the Harding Cabinet continued to-
day with every indication that Mel
lon is gaining on Charles @. Dawes,
of Chicago.
MELONS case was advanced to-
day by George S. oliver, publisher
of the Pittsburgh Gazette-Times,
who came to Marion to give further
evidence of the united sentiment OF
Pennsylvania Republicans in favor
of Mellon. oliver was accompanied
by James Francis Burke. Pittsburgh
attorney and formerly member Of
Congress. Burke added his words
to the Endorsement already rendered
in behalf of the Pittsburgh banker.
THE appointment of Mr.. Mellon,
his Pennsylvania friends believe"
said oliver after his conference
with the President-elect, would
be particularly gratifying to the
business men of the country. He is
not one of the foremost bankers of
the nation but has proved himself
a man of great ability and vision
in his handling of industrial affairs.
Particularly he is equipped for
leadership in an era of reconstruc-
ton"
The developments of the past few
days with the Mellon boom would
seem to suggest that Gen. Dawes
is being given consideration as a
possible Secretary of War. The
supporters of A. T. Hert, Republican
National Committeeman from Ken
lucky, mentioned for Secretary OF
War. are losing no time to put for
ward Hert's qualifications. Richard
P. Ernst, -Senator-elect from Ken
lucky, who had a conference with
the President-elect today. made no
attempt to correct the natural in
ference that he spoke in Mr.. Hert's
behalf
In the line OF visitors who poured
into and out of Harding's little Of
fee today was Col. Theodore Roose-
Welt, jr.. Representative Bacharach,
OF Atlantic City, and Representative
Dennison. of Illinois. Roosevelt is
being mentioned for Assistant Sec
retary of the Navy, a job once held
by his father.
Representative Bacharach, who is
a member OF the House Ways and
Means Committee, presented his
plan for a sales tax as a substitute
for the present method OF taxation.

SOLDIERS DEFEAT
CATHOLIC U. FIVE
Vidal Stars as Camp Hum
phreys Wins Game,
33 to "a.

The Camp Humphreys fve sprung
a surprise on the Catholic Univer-
sity FIVE in the Brookland gym last
night and emerged victors in a fast
clean-played contest by the score
of SO to "a. The soldier quInt pre-
sented a defense that was close to
impregnable and the baskets that
the Red and Black obtained from
proximity to the hoop were few.
At the end OF four minutes Of
play the hosts led to 0, but at
this stage Jof the proceedings Vidal
ct al. came to life and evened the
count. Incidentally Vidal, the SOL
dier center. was the individual star
of the festivities. Neither Dunn nor
Eberts OF the Red and Black squad
could stop the former West Pointer
and he COrraled nine floor and four
foul baskets. Sharing in part the
honors with the classy center was
Capt. Mckee, the right guard Of the
visitors. Times innumerabIe he
broke up the c. U. formations
Shortly before the close of the
second half Lynch, of the home
team, was injured and Fosse was
sent in. Pep" led the losers in
their scoring, swishlng four through
the hoops from the floor. He also
was the star on the defense. The
score at the end Of the first half
was Is to II, with Catholic on the
long end. The army men, however,
made a determined squirt in the
nnal stanza and the Brooklanders
failed to meet the onslaught. Line

At st. Louis.


There is still another happy golfer
over the selection OF the st. Louis
Country Club for the amateur cham
pionship.
We refer to Stuart Stickney, VINO
began playing in amateur cham
pionships over twenty years ago.
He isn't going to leave any move
unmade to make the amateur blue
ribbon a historic event and to prove
that territory west of the Missis-
sippi can more than make good.
He first played the St. Louis Coun-
try Club with Christy Mathewson
while taking a western trip with
the Giants.
This course, laid out by C. B. Nc
Donald, is a very fine championship
test. and Stuart Stickney is willing
to offer his bond that it will be IN
very fine shape when the leading
amateurs of America and Great
Britain meet.

There's a wee Scot In this country
who Is looking forward to a big
week, not so much for himself, but
for his course.
The wee Scot In question won the
open championship of the United
States in 1908 at MyopiR, and he has
developed the habit Of finishing in
the money year after year.
His name is Freddie Mcleod, pro-
fessional at the Columbia Country,
Chevy Chase, Nd, or Washington,
and over this course the best that
America and Great Britain have to
offer will give battle this summer for
the open championship of the United
States of America.
It will be a great championship,
and no one knows 1t better than
Freddie. What with Abe Mitchell,
George Duncan, possibly Ted Ray,
Walter Hagen, Jim Barnes. Jock
Hutchison, Chick Evans, Francis
Ouimet, Douglas Edgar, Bobby Jones
and other stars it will be as fine a
field as the Western Continent has
ever known. And while he won't
admit 1t, Freddie has an idea that it
will take some going to stop the
clan Mcleod over this course, as he
plays 1t brilliantly.
The Big Test.
Mcleod will waste very few min
utes from now on, having Columbia
in perfect condition.
He has a great course, one that
Vardon and Ray pronounced as a
worthy test; and. Mcleod knows
when a course is in shape and how
to put it there.
Mcleod was good enough last
spring to win the North and South
open at Pinehurst, beating Walter
Hagen a stroke.
No golfer playing uses his head to
better effect, and you will find no
better putter anywhere.
He was one of the first on this
side of the water to prove that bulk
wasn't needed for successful golf.
When he won the open at Myopia,
probably the most rugged test ever
offered in America, he weighed lI2
pounds. While not a terrific slugger,
he gets all the distance he needs, is
nearly always straight, and his work
with the mashie and the putter
makes up for any loss in length.
DR.. Walter Harden. of Washing
ton, with the assistance of Mcleod
and others, hopes to make this the
greatest open championship ever
held. AS Senator Harding will then
be in the White House it is a GER
