up and told Young he could do II.
Young replied that, as the dance
would use only so feetA Of film, he
could not pay very much for 1t, but
that he would give $50. The young
fellow said this was all right-that he
was dead broke and needed the money.
Young asked his name and he gave it
as Rudolph Valentino.
"Of course, no one thought any

feating the Alexandria Wal Teach.
ers' team, 35 to 16
The game gave the Washingtons
a chance to aet off some steam they
have been storing up since their
A. A. u. defeat in Baltimore.
This Teachers team is made up
of all the athletically inclined
school ''marms'' of the Virginia
city, and they have played three
games altogether: two last season
and one this year. Although their
team work was very ragged in
places, their individual playing was
good. Broaddus, forward, and
youngest member of the team, just
graduated from Fredericksburg
Normal and has an accurate eye.
The other forward was Quattle-
baum: side-center, Grimm, and the
center, Hammond, who was relieved
by Roberts at the half. The guards
were Jones and Downham against
Schultze and Smith of the w. A. G.
sextet. The other local girls were
NJ. Hearn and e. Watt in the cen
ter field and Kroman, M. lew and
s. Hearn, guards.
Comets meet the MetDpolitans at

and it is quite possible, if they have

will give the Nets good run for
their money.
