This is really q story for the ladies.
Several gentlemen from the sidewalks OF
the city decided the other day to go
fishing. Some one inadvertently sug-
gested that the fish were running in
certain waters not far from Washing
ton. This is usually enough to start the
pulse vibrating.
About o'clock in the afternoon they
arrived at a cove, with worms, crabs,
rods and hooks. A small fishing smack
was engaged and they were soon dancing
over the waves. First they tried twral-
ing. Not much success rewarded their
efforts.
Then they determined to try still
fishing. Still fishing does not refer to
silence on the part Of the anglers. So

Simple Clothes for Child
Always in Style
By FLORENCE La GANKE.

Joan was starting to the nursery
school within q few days, and Nancy
kept her eyes open for new ideas for
small girls clothes.
There seemed to be little that was
new. Dresses we're still simple. In fact,
1t was still true that the simpler the
clothes for the small child the more
smartly that child was dressed.
For street wear the regulation coat OF
blue serge or flannel made with no
ornamentation or trimming of any kind
was BEST
Short skirts with pleats at sides and
plain front and back were attached to
underwaists. This allowed them to
hang from the shoulders rather than
from the waistline. Over the slip with
pleated skirt was put a pull-over sweat

LOUGHRAN PICKED
TO RULE HEAV|ES
Levinsky, Who Declares Biz
Purses Hurt Game, Sees
Tommy as King.
BY 'lhe Associated Press.

DS ne ASSOCIdbeQ freSS.
PHILADELPHIA, January 23.-Bat-
Ting LevinSky thinks big purses "are
running American heavyweight fighters
and in few years this country will
find itself in the same unfortunate con-
dition that England did 10 and Is years
ago" The former light heavyweight
champion of the world gave his views
In radio talk last night.
The public interest in heavyweight
matches and the resultant big purses
offered by promoters is causing the
class of American heavyweights to de-
teriorate," said the battler who retired
last week after 20 years of fighting.
In few years our So-called leading
heavyweights will be men who have
been pushed to the top without the
proper training and experience.
AS soon as a heavyweight shows a
little ability in two or three bouts. his
manager pushes him ahead. No at
tempt Is made to teach him the science
OF the game. Why, in few years we'll
have corps of heavyweightS such as
England had in Bombardier Wells and
Gunner Moir. AS soon as they meet a
good man they take the count in one
or two rounds.
"Only one heavyweight in this coun-
try today knows the real art of boxing.
That's Tommy Loughran. He'll last
longer than the rest, too, for he knows
how to take care of himself. The others
don't. 1t will be impossible to keep
Tommy from the title, for when YOU
can't hit man you can't beat him.
No heavyweight can hit Loughran to-
day."

hand. 1t was that aggresSiveneSs of
his that won for him.
think Braddock fine prospect. par
ticularly so if he puts on some Is
pounds. He has a wonderful right
hand. but his people will have to teach
him how to keep hitting. Besides, he
has tendency to become Hurried when
the pace becomes fast. That can be
overcome with experience.
The most sensational fighter of the
last six months, though, is not a big
fellow. The honor goes to Ray Miller,
who is no more than a junior light
weight, but who has knocked out Sid
Terris, Jimmy McLarnin and Tommy
Grogan, among others.
Every one admireS gamenesS, and
Rays courage after getting up from IL
knockdowns and then stopping Grogan
is one for the book.
McLarnin, judging by his victory over
Joe Click, has improved greatly, and
he might beat Miller in another trial.
But you just can't take it away from
Ray for being the bright star of the
game right now. Miller's left hook is
the best punch in his repertoire, and
it is beauty.

cards few years back, for no apparent
reasons, are being revived as the alley
promoters seek means for keeping the
alley sport constantly before the public.
After. several years of abandonment
the newspaper mems individual cham
pionShip tournament is to be brought
back to the prominent position it once
held. Arrangements are now being made
to stage big tourney, open to all news
paper employees, at King Pin, No. /, next
month. Definite dates for the affair
have not been selected as yet
Johnny Baum, champion of the last
newspaper mems tournament, is ready
to defend his title, which has remained
unchallenged for the past three years.
With large field to draw from, the
entries for the event should prove
numerous. Most of WaShington's news
paper plants are represented by one or
more bowling teams in addition to the
large number of independent devoteeS
OF the game who are employed in
various branches of newspaper work.
Several of. the publishing plants have
one or more leagues with scores Of

Arville L. Ebersole, secretary of the
Washington City Duckpin Association,
who has been named chairman of the
committee in charge of reviving the
newspapermen's tourney, has appointed
the following committee to make ar
rangementS for the tournament: Ben
McAlwee, w. Charles QUAINT, Francis
Cronin, r. j. Atkinson, Henry T. Ro-
dier and r. D. Thomas.
Bowlers employed in any of the
local newspaper plants will be eligible
to enter. The Times, Herald, Post.
News, Star, Bulletin, Labor, United
States Daily and other newspapers are
expected to be represented.
Total pinfall for five games will de-
term1ne the winner. No entrance fee
will be required, according to the an
nouncement. and attractive prizes will
be offered by Bill Wood, manager of
the Meyer Davis alley establishments.
1t is probable that all tournament
games will be rolled on one date. Night
employees will roll in the afternoon
and day employees will roll at night.
Should the entry list prove too large
to be disposed of in one day and night.
additional dates will be set aside to
meet the demand.
