arrival of his dog saved his life.
konecni said he noticed the wolves
before they attacked him, but it be-
ing dark he took them for pack of
dogs and believed that the wolf in the
lead was his own dog. The entire
wolf pack jumped on his back, knock
ing him to the ground and tearing his
clothes. Just then his dog came
barking towards him and the wolves
took after it while he made his es-

~ UT in the Southeast section of
the city there are two horse
shoe twirlers who raised Q big
rumpus last year In the col
ored section of The Washington Stars
tournament They are the winner and
runner-up of the Sixth and Play
ground preliminaries, They seemed to
have the jinx sign on all other tosSers.
This year the same two. David Bay
lor and Melvin Scott, will carry the
colors of the Sixth and L. Baylor,
the colored metropolitan title holder,
proved his caliber yesterday by sue
cessfully defending his playground title
by a decisive victory over the ring
ing Scott
Both tossers worked their way
through a tough field, Baylor tumbling
over Musker West in the first round
of play and John Euell in the second,
while Leonard Mccall and Louis Solo
man were the victims in the third and
fourth stanzaS of the preliminaries.
Scott. working from the lower end Of
the racket. eliminated Leroy Brady and
Henry Gross. In the next stage of
play Scott was q spectator by virtue
OF a bye. In the quarter-nnak ne
sent Jack Reid to the happy hunting
grounds in game packed with ringers
He tossed %.
"Boney Bones" as Taylor is best
known by his Southeast followers, faced
an arduous assignment in the final.
In view of the exhibition he gave last
year in trimming Scott in every match
they played, Baylor was conceded to
have a good chance to repeat. Fol-
lowing an uncertain start in the first
game, he twirled championship shoes.
Collecting 20 ringers in each game, he
soon had the crown tucked away. Scott
pitched beautiful game, topping Bay
lor's ringers frequently. On several oc-
casions four slippers were on the peg.
Scott staged neat rally in the last
game, but 1t was nipped by pair of
doublet ringers from the trusty hands
of the Sixth and L champ.
Scott, who has a legitimate claim
