DOPE IS UPSET AS
FAVOR|TES TUMBL {.
IN POOL TOURNEY.
PLAY FOR CITY CHAMPIONSHIP
DRAWS LARGE CROWD OF IN.
TEREsTED FANS - TWO OZARK
HoRsEs' COP OPENING
MATCHES.
Pool tourney results:
Becker beat Williams, 1oo-76.
kotsoris beat Link, 1oo-91.

A jammed house greeted the open
ing OF the pool tourney at the Pack
enham billiard parlors yesterday af
ternoon and two good games were
on the card but the dope went wrong
when both men touted as favorites
were defeated. Williams was pick
cd TO trim Becker while Link was
considered a favorite over Kotsonis
who by steady playing throughout
was able TO upset the dope.
In the first match Williams start
ed OF with series OF good runs and
soon had a substantial lead and 1t
looked like a cinch for him. How
ever, a scratch shot. good run by
Becker. a poor shot by Williams and
another run by Becker turned the
game from defeat into victory for
him.
After getting fused up once Will
liams seemed TO be ratified aud could
not hit back in his regular stride
and catch up TO Becker. Becker grad
ually increased his few point lead
TO "a, which he maintained to the
end land eliminated Williams, one
of the strongest contenders from the
tourney.
1.-THE players made fair averages
throughout the game, it taking Beck
err Just about 90 innings or an aver
age OF five balls.
However, the next match was diff
ferent from the first one, and the
players seem to be both on edge and
were at their best to cop the victory.
The inning average was poor, being
only about three balls to the shot, |
but this fact is blamed onto the cause
of the old stun "oil" With each con- |
tinually leaving his adversary in
tight places 1t tended TO make the
game slow and the average low.
Whenever a player secured an open
shot it was easily noticeable that
hey made them pay and secured
rood runs that always totaled up
veil.
Every fan who attended yester-
lays matches was well satisfied and !
tated that they will return again.

PECK'S PARK ESTABLISHED AT
SMITHS LANDING STATION.

With the improvements which the
Shore Fast Line are making at main
land stations by putting in flower
beds, trees and shrubbery, a small
park is being established at the
Smiths Landing Station. 1t is to be
known as "Peck's Park" being named
after the popular Councilman from
the Second Ward.
Now that the spot is to be beauti-
fled by the railroad company, it is
hoped by the citizens who use that
station frequently that the public gen
orally will have civic pride enough to
assist in keeping the location sani-
tary and free from rubbish and waste
paper. A little are on the part of
the public will assist in making the
place more p%resentable than it has
been in the past.

ly and effectively in anything than
when she was director of Woman's
Work for the Red Cross during the
recent World War and the Influenza
epidemic.
Several of Mrs. SCOTS ancestors
helped organize the Williamsburg
Presbyterian church two centuries ago
and her people have promoted this
organization for all these years, but
no member of her family ever loved
this church more, served it with great
er zeal, or accomplished more for it,
than she. Outside of her home, her
church was her first care. What
any woman could do in a church in
all of its functioning, Mrs. Scott did.
She was leading spirit in the Wom-
ans Auxiliaries of the church for a
great many years. In all of her
church work, possibly none gave her
more pleasure than visiting the sick
and aged gentlewomen of her church
and ministering unto them.
Mrs. Scott was chairman of the
Williamsburg Cemetery Association
and tireless in her effolts and sue
cessful in her undertakings in making
this ancient burying ground a fit
place for the ashes of the Williams
burg dead. She was, at the time of
her death, promoting the erection Of
monument in this cemetery where
the Original Settlers of Williamsburg
lie. So:
Mrs. Scott was a homemaker. She
loved her state and her church with
a love which few women have ever
felt, yet her home received her su-
preme devotion. She was regarded
as one of the best housekeepers in
Williamsburg. She loved flowers.
She brought rare specimens from
mountain and seashore and from plain
and desert, and all the year some of
them were at their best. Among
her palms and ferns, geraniums and
roses, and about her magnolas, jes-
samines, and pomegranates, her five
little grandchildren now are play
ing. Some of her spirit will grow
through these flowers into them and
soften and sweeten all their days.
