new PRO GOLF BODY
NOW SEEMS CERTAIN

Formation of a professional golf
association to embrace the territory
from Philadelphia south through the
District of Columbia, Maryland and
Virginia, is well under way, with
Robert T. Barnett of Chevy Chase
and Darcy Bannagan, two well
known local golf professionals, at the
head of the movement.
The proposed organization, If car
ried through, will supplant the pres
ent District of Columbia Profession
al Golfers Association.
Barnett and Bannagan attended a
dinner of the Philadelphia profess
sional association two days ago and
proposed the formation of such an
organization. The Philadelphia pros
entered heartily into the suggestion
and agreed to go along with the
Washington pros on the lines pro-
posed.
Barnett and Bannagan already have
outlined plans for interesting the
professionals at clubs about Wash
ington in the formation of the new
body and will proceed to put them
into effect at once, at the same time
hoping to bring in the pros at Mary
| land and Virginia clubs.
Representations will be made to
| the professionals at Baltimore. Rich
and other cities in this territory In
the hope that all the pros in the
| middle Atlantic section will become
m embers.
1t is the plan of tho projected as
sociation to hold tournaments several
times a year, including amateur
professional events and to serve as
the representative in this section Of
tho American Professional Golfers
Association.

DISTRICT BASE BALL
CHANGE IS PROPOSED

A new plan for the conduct of the
Potomac Base Ball League is to be
submitted to the board of directors
of the Washington Base Ball and Ath-
letic Association by the executive
committee at meeting in room ..
District Building, tonight, according
to Norton A. Anderson, vice presi-
dent Of the association.
A league of eight teams is pro-
posed to take the place of last sea-
sons arrangement, under which II
clubs operated in three sections.
Under the new plan more games will
be played. Two or three games will
take place during the week and one
played each Sunday.
If more teams than the required
eight wish to enter league competi-
ton, another league will be formed,
and If necessary more will be organ
lied.
The executive committee will recon-
mend that the new league or leagues
come under the direct supervision of
the Washington Base Ball and Ath-
letic Association.
Teams wishing to enter the Poto-
mac League are requested to COM
municate with l. p. Cooke. 1923 S

and at the outset found the schedule
of study and laboratory work a most
difficult one.
Our schools are not like yours in
this country" Paavo says. The three
year training we receive is much
more intensive. At S am. the school
opens and except for the noon and
evening recesses 1t lasts until 10
o'clock at night. There are no or
ganized sports in the schools-no time
for them; no coaches to supervise
them If there were time. And al
though I was out on the roads at
every opportunity during the warmer
months, and in Winter used my skis
to good advantage, l could not keep
up the athletic training I had been
accustomed to-"
The Summer vacation periods, how
ever, found him back on his old
schedule, but he had not attained his
full growth and development. Bring
ing himself to championship form
was much more difficult than in later
years Speed was at his call, but not
endurance.
His final year in the technical insti-
tute proved somewhat less exacting, and
Paavo, by continuing year-round train
ing program-skiing and skating during
the colder months, playing soccer foot
ball and boxing when the roads were not
in condition for foot racing-was better
prepared for the 1917 and 1918 national
championships. He won the senior
3,000-meter run in 1917 and the 1900
meter in 1918.
World Looked to Finland.
1t was not until 1919, however, when
plans were under way for the seventh
Olympic games at Antwerp, that Paavo
attracted the attention of the outside
world. At that time there was much
speculation as to the strength of the
team Finland would send to the games.
The record made by the little Baltic ma
tion in 1912 had not been forgotten, and
athletic followers the world over were
seeking to know if Finland had other
kolehmainens, Saaristos and Taipales in
the making. Paavo Nurmi was ambitious
to show it had.

Loned After Initial Victory Fue More Track Records Are Smashed
J0IE RAY AN ACTOR
AS WELL AS RUNNER

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, February 4.-Joie Ray
of Chicago, with all but two of his
track records compiled in the last
decade torn from him, promises to be-
come the Nick Altrock of the boards,
from his antics last night.
Before his victorious mile race at
the Western Union meet Joie pro-
duced two specialties which drew
roars of laughter from the crowd. His
little exhibition was significant of
the coming Of Nurmi, and in this act
the little man hobbled about the
track with a cane.
His second act had to do with the
visit of the Olympic champion walker,
Ugo Frigerio of Italy. After Willie
Plant captured the 5,o00-meter event
handily, his third defeat of the italian,
Ray gave a walking exhibition of
his own for a quarter of lap and re-
tired.

AS victory has followed victory
Paavo has been less and less disposed
to respond to the shouts of the crowd.
Nowadays, when he does respond, it
is with the perfunctoTy nod and the
wooden smile of one who follows
custom. The cheers are part of the
game, but he finds no real pleasure
in them.
But the hero of the hour in Abo
is expected to serve much more than
so minutes. A band of worshiping
schoolboys made the journey home
ward a noisy procession with Paavo
its-unwilling leader; neighborS were
on hand, and whenever he appeared
he was besieged. On. Sunday, in the
Lutheran church, the pastor sought
vainly to command the glances which
kept wandering toward the Nurmi
pew.
War Spoiis Game Schedule.
But, for Paavo, the junior cham
pionships were over That record
breaking victory he regarded as
merely a step toward the goal he
had set. His eye was on the Olympic
games, two years off.
1t was just about then that Paavo
developed a distinct dislike for one
Wilhelm Hohenzollern. Paavo was
old enough to know that a scrap of
the proportions then developing
would not be halted for an amicable
meeting of world athletes in a 1916
Olympic meet. That meant the upset
ting of his program.
However, Paavo did not allow the
years of carnage to interfere with
his training. AS he was rfot drawn
in the struggle, he continued scam
pering the roads and fields with his
home town rivals, competing in the
Sunday afternoon track meets, and
journeying each year to Helsingfors
for the national championship.
His first championship success was
duplicated in 1915 in the Junior title
events and in 1916 he was a senior
competitor. But he lacked the rae
ing wisdom of his older rivals that
year and for the first time in open
competition failed to win his event
Paavo ascribes his failure in a
measure due to the strict require

that they are either pretty fair for

both. Now. it is imperative that a
center be both n good guard and
good forward, that LIS, he must have
offensive and defensive power; fur
thermOre, he must he able TO switch
instantly from offense to defense, and
vice versa. He IN the keyman around
which the team revOlves. In addition
to being a good guard and a good

qualities which are peculiar to the
center-Jumping ability and natural
