9 JIMMY GATE
HAS INNING
IN MEET
She Wins 7o-Yard Dash, 100
Yard Dash and Baseball
Throw for Girls
b Jack. MARTIN.

Although no collegiate records
were broken, the George Washing
ton University track meet brought
out some very interesting events.
It certainly was Jimmy" Gates
day, for she won in fine style the
.7O-yard dash, the 10O-yard dash, and
the baseball throw, and also came
in second in the 50-yard dash, and
third in the broad jump. " Jimmy
will undoubtedly be on hand for the
club meet of -Tav 16, and also the
s. "A. A. U. senior track meet OF
June s.
Mary Griffith, winning the 50.yard
dash, came within 1 Is seconds OF
matching the standing collegiate
record, and the Chi Omega relay
team missed the collegiate 40 relay
record of 81 As seconds by 2 3-5
seconds.
The high jump, won by Helen
Hastings with q spring of feet
8 inches, lacked 4 inches of touching
the present collegiate record.
Although hone of the girls events
were record breakers, every race
was well contested and full OF
punch.
It will be well worth while to
watch these athletes from G.. w. u.
when the coming track meets take
place.

Then came the story that Carroll

|NDORSED
BY JURY IN
STANDS

In connection with the opening
of the major league campaigns no
indictment was more satisfying to
the observer than the hearty greet
ing which the fans of Brooklyn
gave Heinie Sand, shortstop of the
Phillies, when he first stepped to
the plate at Ebbets Field.
Sand, as every follower Of the
game Knows, was responsible for
directing the searchliRht Of investi-
cation upon the Dolan-O'Connell
scandal last fall. 1t was Sand, a
former clubmate, that Jimmy O'Con-
nell, young outfielder Of the Giants,
approached with the famous offer
of $500 not to bear down" In the
final games with the National
League champions. He revealed the
story that resulted in the Danish
ment of O'Connell and Dolan.
Sand did the courageous thing
under trying circumstances. BY his
act he did more for basebalTs well
fare than any individual last year.
Yet from the South there had come
reports Of critics branding him as
a "squealer." There was doubt,
too, regarding the manner in which
the average fans attitude would be
reflected, but, judging by the de-
monstration at Ebbets Field, sound
er Judgment has prevailed.
The philosophers who sit In the
bleachers have a habit of delving
into things and coming up with
the right conclusion. Their judgl
ment is sometimes harsh but
usually accurate.

HUBBARD AIMS

DeHart Hubbard. the sensational
athlete Of the University of Michi-

at so and so yards. respectively.
He will compete at the national
open championship meet at Howard
University, May 2, and it is here
that he hopes to realize his fondest
hope-the establishment of a new
world record for the running broad
jump. For several years Hubbard
has been Americas premier broad
jumper and consistently registering
"a feet or better and once leaping
rs feet " inch, which at the time
world record set by Ned Gourdin,
the Harvard University wonder"
Hubbard will do his best at the
Howard meet.
Ned Gourdin will be on hand and
claims to be ready to turn in a
real effort. Gourdin has organized
an athletic clue in Boston and has
entered a half dozen athletes, all
Of whom are reported ready for
their best performances. OF course,
Gourdin is anxious to beat Hub
bard, who forced him to be content
with second place honors at the
last Olympic games.
Coach Steve Farrell. of Michigan,
figures Hubbard good for a new
record in the running broad jump
and goes so far as to predict that
he will even reach the 26-foot
mark. The present record is Is
feet 6 inches, made by Bob Lee
gendre, of Georgetown, at the
Olympic games last summer.

than his present lot Of a tadpole
in a large lake.
But Carlyle's desire to return to
the minors where he can play reg
ularly is not to be construed as
an indication that he lacks con-
fidence to make good in the majors.
His hope is that, in the event he
is sent back, he will be recalled
to the big show to fill an opening
that offers lots of action.
The Washington times., 1925-04-20


This, in a friendly manner, ne
has, told Stanley Harris, who cooked
an understanding ear. Carlyle may
soon be bound for Memphis, OR
some other bush league club. There
is a suspicion, though, that he may
figure in trade.
II is quite certain that his days
with the Washington club are num-
bered. There is reason is believe
that, even II Carlyle were given q
regular place in the lineup MS
hitting would be light. His eye
sight IL impaired. Black Spots
dance before his eyes.
One of his orbs was thus affected
when he reported at Tampa and he
made no secret of it. He told Har.
ris that 1t had been in the same
condition all the time he was a
slugeing hero with Memphis.
Carlyle gave IL as his opinion
that the aiIment did not interfere
seriously with his batting and by
way Of proving it he made one
drive I'm batting practice that Is
said to have rivaled the longest
cIouts Of Babe Ruth. He hit other
long ones. too, and convinced
Harris that he was worth a
thorough trial. He was brought
North rs q pinch hitter.
Although his opportunities have
been few and 1t may be unfair to
sit in Judgment upon him at this
time, the fact remains that Carlyle
does not fit well into the scheme of
things. He is a lefthanded hitter
and the Washington club needs a
right-handed slugger to balance it's
lineup.
The promise he showed at Tamra
has diminished with the increasing
seriousness Of his eye disorder.
Both eyes, Carlyle admitted today.
are now affected. He-has been used
twice on the present trip, oLce
against the Giants and once against
the Yankees and both times he
struck out.
In Justice to him it may he
said that he has had little batting
practice since the team left tampa,
being, in this respect, in the same
boat with other second string
Griffmen, but Hooking back over
those two strikeouts one remem-
bers that he missed several pitches
by unseemly wide margins. An
eye specialist has Carlysle under
observation and shortly is expected
to make report that may have

fellows baseball career.
Carlyle is confident that the dis

believes that his failure to do wei,
