vars and vars. We hope we're sit
ting side by side at the dinner.
Carl w. Tinker got that speech
over. He's the fellow who wrote the
letter to Bill Price who turned it over
to us who wrote a piece for this
column which caused the meeting at
the City Club last night which de-
cided that there'd be a banquet to
George Mcbride at the Wardman
Park Hotel on February "a, at 1880
o'clock which would be stag and
wholly informal.
Carl has ideas about this dinner.
"wILL BOOST WASHINGTON"
"This dinner will be the best boost
Washington has ever had, not with
transients, but with the fans who
live here and back the team" chirp-
ed Carl. "It'H show everybody
everywhere that Washington is back
ing the ball team just as well as De-
troit is backing Ty Cobb and the
Tigers"
Tinker expatiated on his ideas of
a great dinner. He had some fine
ideas, too, but some of them will have
to be kept secret until the night of
the dinner. He was given fine re-
ception by the assembled fans and
Clark Griffith offered him another
cigar.
ICY" Cummings made another
speech in hearty voice. 1t was
something about the fine speakers he
could get for the evenings enter
tainment But this will also have to
be kept a secret until the night of the
soiree. 1t won't do to give away
everything. Something must be kept
for the fans who attend the dinner.
Then came the argument about
w N OF her ~ Un,ilI no al a "
or mixed. We confess on Bonded
knee, crossing our heart and gizzard
m ev'rything, that we made a great
fight for your girls, but they froze
us.
Jack Kellar, no relative of the
magician, stood by. us. He admitted
that he liked nothing better in all
the world than the girls, God bless
'em, but when 1t came to vote
good night, they froze us. 1t was
worse than that.
Hip" Dugan, too, was another, re-
calling old days at Augusta. He put
in one vote to have the girls present.
BUr-the vote went against us, so
you girls will have to wait until
George Mcbride is made the victim
of pennant banquet, with President
Harding and General Wood and Cen
erla Foch and Haig and Haig on the
job.
Yep, this banquet Is going to be
stag. Well have to leave our twist
and twirl home minding the tele-
phone.
AL sCHACHT Is THERE.
Just to show you what sort OF a
baseball meeting this thing was at
the City Club last night, let's tell
you that Al Schacht was there. No.
he didn't come upstairs. He wanted
to talk to Griff on private business.
He @anted-well, it's been a. long,
hard winter, boys, and he did want
to see Griff
Pm in great shape" said Al,
winding up his trick back. II ex-
pect to have the best season in my
career. when IL comes TO the brain
stuff, I'm there. I'll leave 1t to Nick
Altrock."
That stopped us. We introduced Al
to his boss. who had n sour look.
Well this is about all there was at
the meeting. 1t was a great session
and then we on the publicity com
mittee adjourned to Hip" Dugan's
haven of refuge where man can
raise a thirt and kill II, too.
Yes, II was n great meeting, boys
and Fridays ought TO be another
especially n the Old Fox will loosen
up on another box OF cigars.

Gently challenged the Central High
School faculty basketers to a game.
Central got ready, accepted the chal-

ment.
The battle was to have been fought
out yesterday as a preliminary to the
Central-Tech engagement. Something
happened.
S. T. Kimbel, the 2oO-pound center
of the Central faculty team, said two
of his players were unable to take
the floor on account of the fact that
the town had been secured for size
able pants, and that after a fruitless
search had given up the idea Of play
ing.
Then Kimbel decided to get recruits
to take the places of the two Central
men who failed to get basketball
clothes. I'VE have asked Charles
Cuyon. of Eastern. and Mike Kelly.

pected to prove the most scientific
and strenuous of any scheduled be-
tween colleges in this country this

this year. He has outpointed the
champion from Springfield College
and has beaten all his Yale rivals. but
has not faced an international oppon-
ent since the Olympic games.

f75-pound class, f. p. Eagan: 49,
pound class, s. A. Smith; 145-pound
class, G. E. Brewer; 135-pound class,
w. T.. Schuette; 125-pound class, f. p
Wood; 115-pound class, Phil New
man.
All the Yale entrants were members
of the team last year except Schuette
and Smith.
Yale has failed to arrange matches
with Harvard and Princeton, and
Saturdays match closes the home
season, although the Ellis will 60 to
Boston next Saturday week to meet
the Massachusetts Institute OF Tech
nology minister's in a tournament. The
Tech" boxers came TO this city last
year and gave Yale a highly interest

HOW ABOUT THIS
MIXUP?

There has been a little trou-
BILE on the Manila links lately
in getting Filipino caddies. The
club there made a rule that
every bag-toter should wear
at least three pieces of clothes
when on the links, so that he
shouldn't be mistaken for a
piece of bare ground. When
the caddies interpreted the or
der to mean two slippers, and
a straw hat, there was trouble,
but after being shown that
their wonderful powers of abb
breviation were of no avail on
the course, the boys finally al
lowed themselves to be per-
suaded to wear a more modest
outfit.

PLENTY OF PEP THERE.
1t was a great meeting at the City
Club last night.
Commissioner Hendrick was in
duced to admit that baseball is n
part of his religion. He didn't have
80 much on the rest of the gang,
either, at that. He couldn't stay long,
Anacostia, do some business there
and then hit the rattler for New York.
He received the commiseration of the
fans present and hil<ed. He should
be in New York at this very minute,
unless lost in the wilds of Anacostia.
ICY" Cummings was there, sitting
on a couple of chairs in one corner.
SO was Clark Griffith. Griff loosened
up for a box of cigars. They were
fair. too, come to think of 1t, He
smoked one himself, too, to prove it.
Ed Mccarthy was there, sitting up
in his chair like Napoleon at the
battle of Marengo. He was in his ele-
ment being pretty near the widest
rooter in the room and n close and init
mate friend of Washingtons new
baseball manager
CHATTER ABOUT PENNANT.
There was some idle chatter about
a pennant Somebody said this and
that about the pennant and ICY"
Cummings admit ed that when George
Mcbride sailed over the line in front
of the league scrappers, that would be
the proper time to hold a pennant
banquet.
I'm for George Mcbride" roared
ICY" "He's smart baseball man.
In fact, George is one Of the men who
realizes that L was great pltcher In
my prime"
Griff opened the window. Perspira-
tion poured from our classic brow.
Tom Fisher, who used to be mayor
down in Alexandria until he grew
tired of mayoring, was there. He
didn't stay long, though, having a
prior engagement. But he was there.
He wanted to make his report as
present before vamoosing. We took
his official report and let him go.
Toms a great guy. In the old DAYS
OF the Cardinal A. c. dinners down
the river, or gathered with a bunch
of good fellows in some cellar at an
oyster roast, Tom was always the life
OF the party.
