KENNEL AND FIELD
BY MARY C. POPE.

The Washington Kennel Club is
adding new members to Its list at
each meeting. There is no reason
why we should not have one of the
wealthisz- and largest clubs in the
East. for Washington is a city fun of
dog lovers. Tags were issued to over
5000 dogs last year and the CLUB
hopes before 1925 is out to enlist a
large percentage of them in Its books.
Mrs. c. e. Smith has sold four
beautiful puppies. These show speci-
mems are out of Mrs. Smiths winning
female, Nance O'Neai and sired by
Champion Fern Top Rocket. These
pups will all be shown In the near
future.
Mr.. and Mrs. Frnnk Meyer report
litter of four beautiful Boston ter
riers. out Of Meyers Patricia ex
Meyers Pippin.N
Mrs. Marion Durphy reports a re-
markable litter of ST. Bernards out
OF her Hercuveen Alice and sired by
her wonderful stud. Duke Of Airing
tom Mrs. Durphy already has
splendid offer for two of these pup
pies. The mother and father are of
the old stock which is so well known
in Switzerland.
The Runcote Kennels owned by Mrs
r. H. Johnston, reports the sale of
one of her show wire haired terriers.
Only a nice offer persuaded Mrs.
Johnston to part with this classy lit
tie female, which Is to be shown in
the South. These kennels have lately
added a couple of typical Sealyham
terriers.
The sanction show given by the
Pekingese Club OF America in the
butterfly room of the Pennsylvania
Hotel, New York City, was a great
success. Mrs. B. 3. Thompson of
Washington judged, and made special
comment on two puppies-one owned
by the well known Peke fancier. Mrs
Franc. and the other by Mrs.Matthis.

In the new George Washington gym

are encouraging, for the Light Blue

to develop a team that will be able
to retain the title they won last year.
If Coach Charley Guyon can find a
center as capable as Jack Smith of

the best performer in the high schools

fngton, d. c., members of the asso-
citation, and g. Wallis Marrthew, edi-
tor of a tennis publication
The committee. in drafting the new
rule, presented q set Of resolutions in
which It defined the new rule and
gave reasons for the clauses which
are binding.
The resolution, in part, follows:
In all discussions your committee
has been mindful of the absolute
necessity of maintaining the game OF
tennis upon a high plane of amateur
ism, and also of the desirability of
not unduly curtailing the concurrent
or outside activities of individual ten
mis- players.
1T Will be noted in the rule that
a professional tennis player Is defined.
This was thought more satisfactory
than inserting a definition of an ANA
teur Furthermore, your COMMITTEES
has deemed 1t advisable to set forth
certain specific acts as constituting
professionalism and certain other
acts the doing of which will make
a person Ineligible for competition
in tournaments held under, the
felt by your committee that there
were instances which should dis
qualify a player from competing, but
which did not in themselves make that
person a professional, and for that rea-
son the specific acts are grouped
under two headings"

Seruch T. Kimble, physical training
director at Central, also would urge
the playing of the game in the high
schools, he said, provided 1t would
not tax the athletic funds OF the
schools.
Those who frequented the links at
Rock Creek Park and Potomac Park
this Summer noticed that the stable
numbers of players included many
schoolboys of the local institutions.
In fact, at one time during the past
year at Rock Creek the schoolboys
predominated in numbers and many
of them played really fair games.
Should the board Of five principals see
fit to introduce golf in the high
schools, arrangements could be made
whereby play could be held at one of
the nearby clubs or the public
courses.
