tice to have the repairs made on or
before July 1st- The matter of curb

scented, was referred to the highway

occupancy of barn ON Providence
street. The matter was referred to
the city property committee. If the
raise is insisted upon by the landlord
the city may build barn of its own.
Apply To Become Policemen
Three applications were received
by men wishing to become members
of the police force. The applicants
are Alfred Sponcey, Edmund Benoit
and Oscar M. Bouthilette. This
brought up the matter of an extra
man to do traffic duty and to cover
the down town section during the
summer months. Alderman Johnson
was opposed to this, saying he con-
sidered it waste of good money"
and that he did not consider that an
extra man was needed except on holt
days and special occasions.
After considerable discussion it
was voted to hire an officer to do duty
from May 18th to October LIST. The
matter Of selecting the man was left
to the mayor and members of the po-
lice com nittee. 1t was also voted that
the police be paid the balance Of their
uniform money as only half of it has
been paid them.
Further action on police matters
was the transferring of Robert Brown
ing and Hermon G.. Carver from the
fire police list to the special police
list.

In batting. fielding and pitching
the Linworths showed skill equalling
the caliber of much older teams,
and, more than that, demonstrated
striking ability to use the finer
points OF play to advantage.
Mt Rainier Yankees Feared.
This team is considered probably
midget title. The Mt. Rainier Yam
KEGS, who have won many a con-
test this season. Seem to be the
Linworths' most feared competitors.
National A. c., of Georgetown,
and several other Of the thirteen
teams In this class nave made fine
records. There has been more ball
playing by small boys this season
than ever before. and the result is
noticeable in the high brand of play.
There is more actual rivalry in the
Junior class than I'm either the I'M
limited or midget.
Five or six Junior teams have been
sharing honors all season, trimming
virtually all clubs of their class and
losing only among themselves.
Prominent among these crack COM
cinations are the Aztecs and Independ-
ents, who engaged yesterday In a hot
contest on the Shamrock field, in
which the Aztecs triumphed, to 3.
rms was considered one of the most
Important games of the Junior series,
The Aztecs, with a brilliant record for
the season. and with a strong backing
among the fans, entered the series with
the firm belief that only one team
stood In their way to the title. This
team. with possibly better seasons
showing. was bumped off yesterday.
Protests Game.
Mrs. Lille Nicholas, manager of the
Independents. n sterling young club in
point of sportsmanship as well as ball
playing. has protested the game on the
claim that 1t could have Como more
than six innings.
I, Fans went from all sections of the
city to see the Independents and Aztecs
clash. Shamrock field, located at Four
teenth street and Pennsylvania avenue
southeast, has held fewer, II any,
larger crowds this season.
Two especially interesting games are
scheduled for today I'm the junior series,
with the Clovers playing the Park
Views in Section A and the Roamers
and Bennings meeting in Section b.
All of these teams can boast a high
percentage of wins on the season. The
Clover-Park View game will be played
IL Washington Barracks and the
Roamer- Benning game at Thirty-fifth
street and Wisconsin avenue.

First the fleas would snap at the
exhibits and then the dogsteaks
would growl back At the end OF the
day the kennel gnats had outgrown
their victims and one judge made the
mistake of tying q blue ribbon on a
Pomeranian snail which had con-
sumed the canine that was supposed
to win the darb.
So 1t goes. The pupil often sur

New classes in dog manners will

Two of the British Isles Davis cup

John B. Gilbert, met defeat in the
third round OF the Seabright tennis
cup singles on the turf of the Sea-
bright Lawn Tennis and Cricket Club
here.
Vincent Richards, New York, ac-
counted for the defeat Of Turnbull
in straight sets. The score was e.,

of the young American that gained
the victory for him.
1t was the sharply played vollevs
Of X. Norris Williams. III, Boston,
that disposed Of John b. Gilbert, the
British left-hander, 6-1.

Knickerbockers, of Georges

hot game of protest in Section g

Joe Kearney, manager of the
Knicks, today declared he would

four players used by the Do,

which the Knicks won, 4 to 8,

TAGGING AL THE BASES

The Brownies close their visit
here today. That's good.
Tomorrow the Griffs will rest but
on Friday they play an exhibition
game at Richmond.
With the Indians and Yanks losing,
the Griffs lost a fine opportunity
to close up bit yesterday.
AS the race nears its end 1t Ia
becoming more and more certain that
the Tigers have no better pitching
than they did in 1920.
Saturday and Sunday the Boston
Red Sox will play at Georgia ave.

st. Louis. opening their final series
of the year there on August II.
Zeb Milan. seems to have recovered
from his great streak of playing dur
ing George McBr'de's illness. Milan
is now merely going through the
motions. and his friends are wonder
ing what has become OF his dash
and fire.
Turkey Brewers friends gave him
a great hand when he entered the
game yesterday. and he promptly
proceeded to do great things in the
field. At bat, though, probably from
long bench duty, he was very, very
weak.
Jezebel Tecumseh Zachary is card
cd to fling today's contest against
the Brownies, though Olaf Erickson
may also get q whack at them. The
Browns have rwo-game margin
on the Griffmen in the seasons play
and will probably maintain it to the
END.
1t is doubtful II Joe Judge goes
to Richmond. His charleyhorse IL
more painful than ever, causing him
to limp badly. IL was amazing how
he could get up so much speed on
his three-baggers yesterday. Two
days OF rest should do him a whole

enough TO make some serious errors
yesterday, but the fans were with
him, knowing he was trying all the
time. Blacl,ie il OF the fighting tyne

The Score Saver.
II golfer is pretty sure of putting
the ball reasonably close to the pin
from rs to 40 yards off the green,
he is pretty sure Of scoring well
unless his driving and his putting
breaks down completely.
There are usually more strokes OF
this type on a course, up to the
greens. than anything else.
They may come after a good drive
where the hole Ia from 800 to 400
yards in length.
They may come after a missed tee
shot where you have had to play
safe or have lost distance from o
trap or a bunker or the rough But
you will find on a majority OF the
holes of almost any course this stroke
will be needed.
II was control over this pitch to
the green that did more than any
thing else to win the British cham
pionship.
II I had been a trifle off In this
respect would have come close TO
losing.
1t helps both ways. II you are
putting well it gives you your choice
to get birdie. II you are not put
ting well you are not constantly
left with those long approach puts
that usually mean three puts to a
green. For a player must be putting
poorly to keep taking three puts
when he is only eight or ten or
twelve feet from the cup. II he is
getting his approaches close he
doesn't have to do any fancy putting
to score well. But II he isn't he is
generally in trouble. for there are
few In the game who can keep on
laying long approach puts OF forty
and fifty feet dead to the pin on
modern green's.

APPENDICITIS MAY KEEP
RAPP OUT OF GAME

CINCINNATI, Ohio. Aug. 10-Goldie
Rapp, third baseman OF the Phillies, is
believed to be out of the game for the
rest OF the season with appendicitis.
After complaining for several weeks
Of pains in his side whom exerting
himself on the ball field, Rapp yester-
day submitted to medical examiua-
ton. His trouble was diagnosed as
chronic appendicitis and an operation
recommended. Rapp remained at his
home here when the Phillies went

almost the same results. The ball win

The golfer who can't put a cut on
