Jones is an unexpected visitor to
Washington, and is here in the
capacity of reporter for a large
newspaper syndicate for which he
writes football articles during the
season. This afternoon Jones not
only will review the Hilltopper but
will remain here to be the honored
guests at an informal dinner ar
ranged for him by Little at the
Racquet Club tonight
Jones Is perhaps one of the best.
known figures in the collegiate foot
ball world and it Is certain that the
Hilltoppers will be sent through
their PAGES at top speed to impress
the Yale gridiron emeritus. During
his playing days Jones was one of
the greatest quarterbacks developed
at Yale. Following his gradual ton
he assumed charge of the coaching
destinies Of his Alma Mater after
the war and brought the Blue to
the top of the gridiron world again.
Because of business reasons he re.
tired from the actual coaching of
Yale two years ago, but still acts
in an advisory capacity for the
team.

der to familiarize the men with
conditions they may run up
against late in the year. or, for
that matter. any Saturday.
One thing that should impress the
visiting empressrio is the new Of
| fensive style employed this year by
Georgetown. The team starts its
plays from q huddle with some
unique formations devolving there
from. The linemen filter through
the backs as they march up to the
forward wall to take their regular
places and on a given signal the
team starts the play after the
monetary necessity halt. While the
| linemen are taking up their posi-
| tions the backs also do some shift
| ing if the play calls for it and 1t is
one of the most complicated styles
one would care to see.
! That the new shift will get
results, however, appears quite
obvious. Plays spring into action
with balanced or unbalanced line
and with the constant shifting

the remarkable statements that are
made regarding 1t. Mrs. Henderson
said a few days ago, Miller's Herb
Extract did me more good than any
thing ever used, and I want to
praise It to every one as being a
wonderful regulator and system
cleanser. Mrs. Henderson resides
at 513 e st. NV. and has been
a resident Of Washington for the
past twenty years. Continuing. she
said: When I began using this medi-
cine I was, so to speak, out of shape
In every way and nothing I used
gave me any relief to speak Of. My
stomach was so upset I could not
enjoy q meal, and everything I ate
would have burning indigestion
pains, also pains in my sides and
back, was very nervous and restless
and hardly ever slept well after
going to bed. Then, too, I was
badly constipated, always taking
pills or some other laxative, most Of
which seemed to upset me all the
more. But as bad as my condition
had seemed to be, this remedy
helped me from the start. I am
now on my third bottle and must
say again that I have never used
its equal. The bowels now move
regular, all pains are gone, and !
feel better In every way than ] have
for ten years. Food no longer
causes me to have those terrible
pains IN my stomach, and eat
everything want. I am 30 well
pleased with the results that I want
to tell others about it and hope my
statement win be read by every suf-
ferer here at home. You don't need
any pills with this medicine, IL Is

anteed to give results. A medicine
you can take three or four bottles

HARTFORD HIGH DEFEATS LOCALS
Capital City Grew Takes 1Q- InninG Decision in Hectic Game

Two teams, neither Of them very strong. but both evenly matched against each other. staged a 10-in- ming battle at Patterson Field in Hartford yesterday afternoon with the New Britain high school com- bination lowing to its ancient rival. Hartford High, by the score of II to IS.
 A alashing drive by Kelly. Hart ford High outfielder. with J. Shor- tell in the position to score. gave Hartford the edge in game fea- tured by batting orgies of both teams.
 New Britain, after rallies in the sixth and seventh innings. went into the ninth inning with two-Sun lead. Hartford. however. came b&ck strong in the last half of the final session and tied the score.
 The shortcll brothers were the stars for Hartford. J. Shortell scor- ed the winning run in the tenth while his brother. T. Shortell did | Babe Ruth with two men on in the fifth. Bogdanski and Bill Mangan were the biz sticks for New Britain. The summary:
 n n,A
New Britain herald., 1929-05-23

Every year about this t.me some- one generally brings up the subject of what effect golf has on . bail players batting eye. The subject gets discussed more and more each season. but a definite conclusion Is as far removed as ever.
 Managers of biz league ball clubs differ in their opinions and both factions can offer plenty of argu- ment. Some enforce rigid prohibi- tion of gold for their players while others even encourage it. With John McGraw's Giants. the game is taboo. Miller Huggins is an enthu- siastic golfer himself and if the Tanks want to play. it's jake with Miller, provided the boys don't over do it.
 Both sides of the argument have concrete examples to present. Sam Rice, best golfer in the major leagues, plays at every opportunity and he has always been one of the most consistent batters in baseball. Arnold Statz, who gave promise of being a great outrelder. is said to have ruined his batting with the golf swing.
 He was good enough golfer to play in major tournaments but he didn't make good with the Cubs or Robins because he forgot how to pickle a baseball.
 It ii interesting to reverse the idea and see what a professional golfer can do with a ball bat. Several years ago, Tommy Armour, former national open champion. in an ar gument with Pitcher Carl Mays, de- cided to prove that hitting baseballs was pie for a good golfer.
 They went out to the Polo Grounds and after Carl warmed up with . catcher. Armour stepped to the plate. He hit the first ball Carl served him out of the park. But he didn't even touch e5 subsequent pitches.
