George Washington's win gave il
q. tie with Catholic University in the
six games so far played between
teams Of the institutions. Much OF
the Hatchetites' success was due to
the fine kicking of Loehler and the
attacking qualities of Wagner The
latter made both of his teams touch
downs in the second half. Lamar and
Newby added the extra points with
kicks. George Washington got nine
first downs to three for Catholic Uni
Nersity and at no time did the latter
threaten seriously.
In Baltimore Maryland could make
headway against Hopkins only be-
tween the 30-yard line. nor could the
Johnnies get anywhere with their
line attack. Six times Maryland pene-
trated Hopkins territory deeply, only
TO be checked decidedly. Hopkins in
the last quarter made good gain by
overhead play and got close enough
to the Maryland goal to give Turnbull
a kicking chance. His boot from the
cs-yard line was wide. however. All
of Marylands forwards played splen-
didly, while Pugh and .Beasley of the
backfeld did well. Day, Washington boy
playing at center for Hopkins, gave
a good account of himself Mary

But his plans are no more preten-

Charley Henderson of Nostrand A. G.
fame, who Is talking big talk about
a 10000 capacity stadium over in
Queensborough
Offhand. II looks AS though the
California project had the biggest
chance of coming into being, if either
can be said to have q chance. The
location of which Henderson speaks
is within a half mile OF the present
Queensborough stadium, and the State
boxing commission has a. little rule
which prohibits boxing clubs from
encroaching on each others territory.
1t Is barely possible, of course that
Henderson had reached some sort of
agreement with Simon Flaherty of
the Queensborough club. That club
is living on rented property without
even so much as a years lease, so far
as the public knows. But nothing has
been bruited about Flaherty's having
been given notice to move out.
But both of the proposed arenas
look pretty much like pipe dreams.
The present tendency of the title
holders to do all their appearing on
the stage instead of in the ring and
the numerous ballyhooed big" fights
which have f1ivvered of late can
scarcely be said to have built up a
public appetite for boxing which
would warrant large expenditures for
arenas.

the big stars of the game. l still h;
In 1911 and 1912 1 had entered the
qualifying round for the national
competition, but had failed to get
through. At Garden City 1 not only
qualified, but won my first round
match. And this brought me face to
face with the fact that in the second
round l was paired with the great
Jerome d. Travers, the then holder of
the title, which also had been his in
1907 and 1908.
Jerry TraverS' name was one to
conjure with at that time. He was
the outstanding American amateur,
with a reputation sufficient to ter
fify any one except veteran.
Before our match / decided I would
not be one of those who succumbed to
the champion before making q single
stroke.
He is going to have to beat me
himself" l told myself.
We were off to a very close battle
in the morning round. AS we reached
the eighteenth hole we were all
even. However, by sinking a long
putt for 2 Travers finished l up
as we went to lunch. l felt gratif1ed
that I had held him to so narrow a
lead, particularly as 1 had made a
medal score of 73.
In the afternoon Jerry won the
first hole. but the next two fell to me.

the fourth. fifth and sixth. On the
seventh, a par 5 hole, holed birdie

The eighth hole at Garden City was

in front, a deep trap at the back and
trouble on both sides. Both Of US got
good tee shots, but mine was a bit
the shorter and 1 played to the green
first. Using a midiron, l laid my No.
2 shot eight feet from the hole for a
possible three.
I must admit was very proud of
this play. That's that" I told my
self In my youthful pride-I was 20
and turned to see what the effect
upon my opponent had been.
Jerry was exceedingly careful in
looking over the ground. He took
lots Of time. Then he proceeded to
drop his ball one foot from the cup.
Needless to say. 1 missed my putt
and he captured the hole. From there
on my play was not 30 good. l didn't
collapse, but there was nothing to 1t
Travers won 3 UP and to go. At
the proper time he had demonstrated
he was a real champion by making
genuinely championship play. He
put in my bosom a respect for him
that hitherto 1 had managed to hold
In check And he ultimately won the
championship again.
Strange, isn't 1t, that 10 days later
I won the national open champion

have heard sportsmen argue heat
edly over this question, and it seems
to me that it has become as widely
discussed as has that class of argu-
mentation, the one buck law as ap-
piled to deer. I think the best way
TO show how these arguments run Is
to give the view of extremists on
both sides. DR.. Hornaday has for
years carried on a strenuous cam
paign to reduce bag limits by one
half His argument is. Reduce the
bag limit by one-half, thus reducing
the kill by one-half.
On the other side, we have great
many sportsmen. of whom my friend
Donald Hough is an example. III
every hunter were to kill the bag
limit every day, we could reduce the
kill by one-half by cutting the bag
limit in two" he says, but. of course,
this is not true. A reduction in the
daily bag limit would affect only
about one-half of l per cent of the
eportsmen, and would reduce the bag
limit Of this one-half of ] per cent on
the few days of the year on which
they shoot the limit"
He goes on to show that the aver
ere kill per season of the duck hunt
ar in Minnesota, where a report on
the seasons kill is required Of every
man taking out a license, was Sc
ducks per man. You've got to hit the
man. who kills, not the limit every
day, nor the limit once in while,
hut who kills 5.6 ducks per season,
IN order to materially reduce the an
nual kill, he argues.
..But," says DIR. Hornaday, don't
1ou suppose I know that? Perhaps
nv figures are overdrawn. But it is
necessary to overdraw them to con-
vince the hunter that he Is killing
TOO much game"
apr. Hornaday Is right" says an
other; "what we want to do Is to hit
1he man who gets the limit. He is
1tilling too many ducks. There Is too
much special privilege In duck hunt
ing now. Let's pass some laws that
will hit the rich hunter, especially
since he doesn't need the limit, and
will Let the one ga1us' man alone"
