GOLF CLUB SELECTS
SITE FOR MEMORIAL

Plans for the casting and erection
Of the memorial to Mrs. Phyllis Keeler
Miller, late secretary of the Women'S
District Golf Association, moved for
ward yesterday with selection of a site
for the memorial by officials of the
Washington Golf and Country Club
and the Women's District Golf Associa-
ton. The site chosen is between the
first tee and the eighteenth green at
Washington, a location that gives good
view of the memorial at all times and
will permit of its removal If the club
house is moved to the spot In later
years.
The design for the memorial, which
Is to be a sun-dial in bronze on stone
base, has been made by W. Clark Noble,
at his studio on Sixteenth street, and
the model now is nearly ready to be
cast in bronze. The sun-dial will be
surmounted by the figure of woman
golfer, in putting position. Inasmuch
as the complete memorial Is not now
ready and may not be ready for sew
eral weeks, it is probable that it will
not be placed until early Spring. Mrs.
Miller served for more than three years
as secretary of the Women's District
Golf Association and was one" of the
leading golfers of the Capital for nearly
a decade. She died several months ago.

Until year ago Alabama was cock
of the Dixie highway. Last year
Georgia Tech, Florida, Georgia and
Vanderbilt jolted Wade's pupils into
the big gum tree swampS with their
touchdowns and goals.
Wade's a great believer in power
plays. His outstanding elevens have
been able to pound through. A IA
vorite is a rush of tackle that hits
like a ton of bricks. Ball is fed di-
rect to No. /, with Nos. 2 and backs
leading him to crash the end. No. 6
back and left end No. 3 smash the
opposing tackle in, and don't mean
maybe. They hit him with all they
have. Meantime lineman No. 4
swings out and around to help muss
up defensive back, as end No. T.,
after jolting the opposing tackle,
cuts through for like purposes.
But no plays today drive straight
off tackle. Every coach is hipped
with the idea of making such at
tack look like an end run. This
helps dispose of the end as it draws
him straight across the line and per-
mits him to be cut down from in
side. AS that is being done No.
cuts In of tackle and drives his way
forward. It's a play that aims to
gain yards. That, by the way. is
all that Is needed In any game II a
team can make certain Of doing 1t
every time.

Bowie Will Open Tomorrow
For Twelve Days of Racing

vember "a. This drew 81 entries. in
cluding Neddie, DR.. Freeland, Rubicon,

these 2-year-olds will have consld-
erable task to beat the older seasoned

Chance Play, Princess Tina, Bobashela,

The Endurance, a mile and 10 YARDS
race for 2-year-olds, exclusively, Is
scheduled for Tuesday, November 81,
in which AZ of the finest of the coun-
try's younger racers have been entered.
It seems that Twink, should he start IN
this event, will have it at his mercy,
owing TO the ease with which he has
beaten the best of the present 2-year-
olds now racing in Maryland.
Closes Thanksgiving Day.
Thanksgiving day, November 90, and
the closing day of the meeting, Will be
featured by a renewal of the Thanks
giving Handicap, for 3-year-olds ana
upward over a distance of mile and
furlong. .Forty-seven Of the handicap
division have been nominated for TINS
stake, out of which it is probable that
at least Is will face the starter. This IS
one of the events which usually results
in an upset. owing to the fact that it
is a handicap and the high-grade horses
are weighted down to bring them to the
level of the platers.
Many horses, new to the Fall season
in Maryland, will be seen under colors
at Bowie, as the only other track now
running is Lexington. Shipments from
New York, Kentucky and Illinois have
arrived at Bowie within the last few
days, which will further complicate the
problems Of the cash customers.
Bowie, the first to put up the totalizer,
the first to put up the fourth horse and
the first to give the approximate odds,
always has sought to give the racing
fans the best service possible. That this
course has borne fruit is atteSted by the
constantly increasing patronage and
prestige of the track as a racing center.

N YEw YORK, November 15.-The

records of the present season
behind them in the minds OF Eastern
foot ball fans this week. Games won

the serious business of fighting for a
victory over the one all-important
rival.
The Yale-Princeton encounter holds
the center of the spotlight as the old
est Of the traditional games. The
series started in 1873, and Saturdays
game will be the fifty-second meeting.
Yale has won 81 games, against is for
Princeton. Nine games have been tied.
Since the war, however, Princeton has
held the lead with victories and
defeats.
Princeton has a somewhat better
record this season, with victories and
2 ties. Yale has been beaten by Army
and Maryland. The seasons record
can be tossed into the discard when
these two fight it out, as they never
count anything but what happens on
the field in their own game Gloomy
reports OF injuries and poor Showings
In practice sessions have been coming
from both colleges. Chuck Howe,
Princeton captain, is in the inf1rmary
with cold. Two other regulars are
on the injured list Nal Stevens, Yale
coach, is complaining of sluggish work
Of his linemen.
Another Ancient Series.
Another series which dates back into
the early days of foot ball will be re-
sumed at Philadelphia between Penn
Sylvania and Colombia. They first met
In 1878, playing a ScoreleSs tie. Penn,
after its smashing triumph over Har-
ward last week, is favored to add to its
record Of IA victories in the remaining
IL games of the series.

Bowie opens tomorrow. This great
ly improved racing plant, nearest of the
big ovals to the Capital City and looked
upon as Washington's own racing es-
tablishment, has forged to the front
rapidly In the last three years, and the
caliber of horses and the conduct OF the
sport from the public's standpoint has
raised it to as high level as any In
the State.
There are $500 horses that will be
available for racing at Bowie, mclud-
ing approximately 1000 stables at its
own plant, 200 at Benning, 200 others
at Marlboro, and more than 100 at
Laurel. Horses quartered at the other
tracks will be vanned to Bowie on the
day they are entered.
Post time for the first race is o'clock,
which will give WaShingtonians plenty
of time to get home in time for supper
i'm case they lose--or dinner, IN case
they win.
Among the famous horses now quar-
tered at the track are Victorian, great
est of 3-year-oldS when in racing
mood and rougiSh as platter when his
digestion is off, or, perhaps, because his
meals are late. A recent arrival at the
track is Misstep, who ran the fastest
mile of the year at Chicago. Sun Beau,
conquerer of Victorian and Toro, and
winner of the mile and three-quarters
Latonia championship stake. is another
of the first-caliber horses seasoned by
steady racing and ready to give battle
