Harrington continued to pile up
base ball victories here Saturday af-
ternoon, when they took the Mas
tens Corner giants into camp. Brown
who probably is forty-second cousin
to Mordecci Brown Of National
League fame and also Umpire Park
Brown, started on the mound for the
visitors. He was greeted with a mass
of hits and several runs crossed the
pan. In the latter innings Slim Kates
took up the pitching burden and fin
ished the game. His quick breaking
curves soon put a damper on the To-
cal sluggers. No more runs were
scored after he ascended the mound.
The locals substituted number OF
members of the Junior High School
team in the last inning. Gibbs at
third base handled his only chance
like a big Lacquer. 1t was texas
Lacquer and he doubled runner on
second. Cain at second played his
first game with the locals and ac-
quilted himself in such a manner
that caused the fans to sit up and
take notice.

VOLCANO is TO BE
SITE OF HOSPITAL
PRACTICAL USE TO BE MADE
OF THE MOUNTAIN THAT
SMOKES" IN MEXICO.

High UP, at an altitude of 1888
feet, near the snow-covered peak of
the volcano Mount Popocatepetl, one
OF the two scenic beautiful sights Of
the Valley of Mexico, practical use is
to be made of the romantic lure of the
Mountain that smokes" as Popoca-
tepetl is referred to frequently, says
the New York Herald Tribune.
( The ministry of communications and
public works makes the announcement
4 that an offer has been received from a
group of British capitalists who are in
Negotiation with secretary of the de-
partment Adalberto Tejada, for the
construction of a sanitorium above the
snow line of the mountain to be used
by tubercular patients
The plan as represented includes the
building of ali extraordinarily compli-
Gated aerial railway for the ascent Of
the mountain Part of this line is to
be an ordinary funicular or cog incline
railway. This is to reach as high as the
grades up the mountains side will
permit.
From there on an aerial line, cars
to be run on a cable, much like ele-
vators dropped into mine shafts, will
make the farther ascent and descent
possible. The entire investment is to
reach $500000, and the information
given out at the ministry is that a
concession asked for by the proposed
builders is being given careful consid-
GRAFTON, with the likelihood that it will
be granted.
The Popocatepetl crater will not in
terfere with the plans, it is said, as it
is proposed to build the road and ter
minal on the side of the volcano fac
ing Mexico City, while the sulphuric
eruptions and smoke clouds that the
Jnountain emits continually make their
exit from its internal caldron from an
opening on the east side of the noun
tain facing the City OF Pueblo, al
though the smoke spread above the
Peak is visible from Mexico City.
The promoters plans also include
explorations of the immense sulphur
deposits existent about the rim OF the
active crater and in its interior which
have never been seriously exploited
for commercial use.

Busy Gins Day and Night Draw
Heavily on Water and Electricity.

Due to the early and heavy cotton
season, which is making it necessary
to run the gins of the city day and
night, and thus tax the power plant
to its capacity to supply water and
electricity it was decided by the pool
committee of the American Legion to
close that resort at least temporarily,
and possibly for the remainder OF the
season.
According to Mr.. Karl Thompson
the pool will not be opened any more
this season unless extremely hot
weather should again prevail.
The pool has been source OF much
pleasure to a large number of people
throughout the hot summer months.
1t has grown in popularity every year
since its construction.

ROCK CREEK IS
OPENED FOR
GOLFERS
Danny Horgan, Former Pro at
the Chevy Chase Club. at
Helm Of Pro Game
By ROSS L. CONKLIN.

Danny Morgan. Washington's
chief rival for the Beau Brummel
honorB of the now decadent, Gene
Sarazen, il as happy as lark in
lis new job-that of professional at
the Rock Creek golf course. Danny
has three assets which he is taking to
the recrudesced mountainous course.
One is himself, another is his thorough
knowledge Of the game and an abb
ity to teach it, and the. third Is his
unQuestioned sartoriaI supremacy.
The elite Chevy Chase Club is
mourning Danny's departure. He
was we'll liked there, and with Bobby
Barnett. the pro, he was on a fair
way towards putting Chevy Chase
back on the Districts competitive
map.
AS he pro at Rock Creek, Hor-
gan will have absolute charge of the
commercial end of the game He
will supervise the club repairing and
the teaching, leaving only the sell
ing of tickets to the concessionaires
Two days a week he will devote
to the task of teaching the young
ladies of one Of Washington 3 most
select girls schools. Lou Little
aIso wants him to take charge of
the Georgetown University golfers.
In addition, innumerable members
Of the Racquet Club are hot on his
trail for some lessons in how to
putt and drive, and, incidentally
score correctly.
Rock Creek will be a far different
course this year. Many needed i'm
provements have been added.
In the first place, there will be
eighteen holes of golf. In the second
there will be much improved
Greens, and better cared for far
WAYS. Rock Creek will be under
the direct supervision of the Govern.
ment, and will be able to draw on
the Governments agricultural ex'
Lerts for aid and comfort.
Danny is very enthusiastic over
his new berth. He plans to save
golfers of the course the little
things which in the long run count
for 80 much" Among the innoVa-
lions that are being discussed Is that
of having a club team.
BY having a team, ROCK Greek
will develop q neighborhood spirit
and there IL chance of having
some hot matches with both East
and West Potomac park golfers.
George Diffenbaugh. one OF the
most prominent pros in Baltimore
has signed up as Horgan's assistant.
A club maker from one Of the Bait
mere clubs has been secured. Inc
attendants will he experienced men
With both Rock Creek, when
