Tres Central
Alumni
TINES STATE PH6Te

The age-old message, ION Earth
Peace and Good win to Men," finds
but feeble echo in the hearts of a
group of Central High School. alumni.
There is b feeling that graduates
of the city's largest high school have
been sighted by officers of their own
almui association, which called upon
outside assistance for a task close
to the heart of every Centralte.
This feeling grew out of the un-
yelling at the annual meeting of the
Central Alumni Association last
week at the high school building, of
a portrait of Fran Hoegelsberger,
IA former assistaflt principal of the
school, who diesi during the early
days 0fstiae war, ard one Of the most
dearly beloved figures IN local school
history.
The alumni association voted to
present to the school portrait of
Mrs. Hoegelsberger as its Christmas
gift to the school and the faculty.
Central Alumni Artists.
There are number of Central
graduates who have achieved ma
tional fame as portrait painters
Among those now in Washington
who were personal friends of Mrs.
Hoegelsberger are Dorsey Doniphan,
of the class of 1917, who has studio
at 1924 Fl street northwest; Orlando
Rouland, famous for his portrait of
Mrs. Molla Bjurstedt Mallory, the
tennis star, and Charles Dunn, art
editor of the Nations Business.
Friends of these artists state they
they were not even asked to compete
for the honor Of painting Frau
Hoegelsberger's picture, task, it Is
stated, which any one of them would
have welcomed. Instead, the officers
Of the alumni association awarded
the painting of the picture to s.
Burtis Baker, Boston man, who,
as far as friends pf the late Frau
Heogelsberger can learn, did not
know and had never seen the Frau,
and therefore was incapable Of paint
ing really sympathetic portrait.
Admit Portrait Good.
Bakers portrait, they admit, is a
good likeness. 1t was based, they
say, upon several good photographs
OF Mrs. Hoegelsberger. They de-
clare, however, that the work does
not and could >n0t be expected to do

DORSEY Doniphan, one Of the best
known figures In local art circles,
Is upheld by his many friends and
former bchoolmates as the logical
man to have produced the painting
of Frau Hoegelsberger. He Is not
only a portrait painter OF great
promise, but was a close friend and
admirer of Mrs. Hoegelsberger.
He refused to comment upon the
merits of the. Baker portrait, but
declared that he was surprised that
the commission for the picture, had
not been awarded Central graduate.
Friends OF Mr.. Doniphan, admit
ting that they are disappointed he
was not chosen to paint the Hoegels-

Charred pieces Of oiled

today. This evidence estab-
Iished for a certainty that

Al piece Of oiled silk was
found in a tree top on the sea
shore. Lieutenant Jubert, af-
ter examining it infinitely, de-
clared it was part of the sta

1T is now believed that the
Dixmude may have been
struck by lightning during a

DENCI0 HANDS A K. O.
PUNCH TO GOLDSTEIN

Only a handful of fans Witnessed the
boxing card last night at Berwyn
Heights Arena, but they were treated
with a corking good show.
Young Dencio, the Filipino fly
weight battler, distinctively proved his
class when he caused frankie Gold
stein, former A. A. T. champ. to
take the count in the fourth round.
The fight up to that time had been
fairly even. For three rounds the fight
was fast and furious, both boys show
ing their ability to step around. After
minute of milling in the fourth,
Dencio caught Goldstein with a solid
left under the heart and the former
amateur champ went down for the
count of nine. Dencio was on him like
a fash, smothering his opponent with
punches and Utterly beating him to
the floor, where Referee Charlie Short
tolled the fateful ten.
Patsy Mozier, United States Navy,
formerly located in Washington, but
now a member of the crew Of the
Shenandoah, ran UP against a snag

Club Stovall could not. fathom Mo-
Tiers attack for the first three
rounds, but after that he got going
and handed out some solid punish
ment. MoZier went down three times
for count in the sixth round and
his seconds tossed the towel in the
ring.
