GIVEN REAL FIGHT
BY AUTH IN FINAL
Conqueror of Tough Field
Strong Candidate for
Higher Honors.
FROM the start of the Metro
4 politan District horseshoe
championships, sponsored

championships, sponsored
by The Star, it has beer
reckoned that the man who wor
the Rosedale preliminary would
be tough customer in the higher
stages of competition in Wash
tngton.
Harry Mccarthy, the defending
champion at Rosedale, withdrew with
q lame shoulder early in the going, but
others had improved so much over last
year that Harry was not even among
the favorites this time. The field hao
grown in number and class.
So today we have a formidable con.
tender for high honors in the Wash
ington tournament in the person OF
Henry Irving. young fellow who
battled with skill and courage to lift
the Rosedale championship.
In the final round he defeated Joseph
Auth and it was a struggle all the way
Irving took the first game, so to 48. lost
with 50-33 decision in the last
A large gallery saw the final, the
principals of which will shoot next in
the Rosedale division play-offs. Judged
on his showing in the preliminary, Auth
should be one of Irving's strongest
rivals in the divisional meet. There
was little to choose between them in the
0lnS Dong Lndl at ftOSeQdie.
