HERB TUCKER
HURR|ES
RACE
BY GARRETT WATERS


There has been a great deal Of
action IN the campaigns Of the
various weekday leagues this sea-
son, but the Georgetown Church
League takes the cake.
All year something out Of the
ordinary has come about in this
loop, chiefly because Of the close
ness of the race, and it has given
Secretary-Treasurer and Official
Scorer Herb Tucker probably the
most strenuous season he has
ever, or will ever want to, expert
ence in several years. And not
only him, but the teams, players,
and followers, as well.
The latest on this league is
that the prolonged first.Series
Stitle will be decided Saturday
between the West Washington
and Grace Episcopal Trines
when they play on the East
EllipSe at o'clock. Decided,
yes, IL another Of those
famous tie games, character
istic of this league, does not
come about.
Next is that Secretary Treas
urer and Official Scorer Tucker
has arranged for double-headers
two or three times a week to
help catch up with the second
series which has started about
two weeks late because of the
playing of the many postponed
games on the first.half schedule
and the play-off for the cham.
pionship between West Washing.
ton and Grace Episcopal.
The first Of these double-head.
ers will be played Friday. Cal
vary Baptist and Vermont Avenue
will play on the East Ellipse
while Eldebrook and First Bap,
tist will meet on diamond No. 8
both games at Sis p. M. The
latter game, it might be said, is
one Of the early ones in the first
part of the second series Sched
ule.
More games will be arranged
and announced by Tucker as the
weeks go on,

ming Navy Yard, 8 to 3.
Pete Ingram this time was
the hurler and he turned in
great effort, limiting his
opponents to four hits.
The Industrial League had ar
interesting clash when the West
ern Electric nine defeated Holmes
Bakery, 4 to 0. A left-handec
pitchers battle ensued with Eddie
Moeller winning over Tom Foley
Both were in fine fettle and espe
cially in the later innings wher
no scoring was done. Moellel
granted three hits and famed
nine, while Foley was touched fol
four singles while stirling Out
eight. A three-baSe hit by Jarboe
started the scoring for the win
ners in the second inning and the
run he batted in was really
enough to win. However, three
more runs were scored later lr
the game for good measure.

Broadcasts Regular
Weekly Program

bringing to radio listeners bf a
large section of the United States a
new and unique entertainment feat
ure, the Continental Oil Company of
Denver, Colorado, will go on the air
early in 1880 with a regular weekly
program owe the National Broad
casting Company network. Accord
ingto those who have seen the scripts
an ~rehearsals, the Conoco dramatic
productions, built around outstanding
romantic historical events in the de-
velopment of the Western States,
promise supbea'b entertainment.
The whole of the Western States,
the great scenic wonderland in which
were enacted so many Of the stirring
dramas Of American history from
which fiction writer's have drawn
their material for decades, from the
background for the COnoco programs.
They will be dramatized incidents
in the historical epic of the West,
written as truly in accordance with
the historical facts as historians and
research workers can hake them.
They will include such miniature
dramas as the discovery of Pixies
Peak by Zebulon M. Pike, the opening
Of the Cherokee Strip in Oklahoma,
| which precitated the widest race for
land ever recorded in history.
| Clusters Last Stand, in Montana, dis
| covery of the Carlsbad Caverns in
| New Mexico, and a score of others
similar in character, each a chapter
in the saga of the winning Of the
| West.
To the millions of Americans who
have seen the Western wonderland,
or who are planning to see it during
future summer motor tours, the Con-
eco programs will be particularly in
| teresting, because Of their bearing
upon the scenic spots which have be-
come the shrines of increasing mil
lions of tourists each summer.
Sponsors of the program have an
nounced that no expense has been
spared in assembling the most com

produce the Conoco historical dra-
mas, and no effort has been withheld
to give them the realism which comes
only from a painstaking examina-
ton Of historical backgrounds have

modern radio entertainment.

COUNTY AGENT
NOTES

According to the observations OF
County Agent Ferguson, poultry
rower of this county lose several
thousand dollars every year by the
disease that is known as Bacllary
White Diarrhea. This disease caus-
es the greatest losses among the poul-
try fiocks soon after Matching time.
In fact. in a flock where this disease
is present, it is not uncommon to
have as high as 80 percent loss the
first ten days after Matching. Those
birds that have the disease and sur
vive to maturity are known as scar
~riers." Chicks Matched from scar
~riers" will have the disease, and con-
s~equently there will be heavy loss
eS.
Experiments have proven that hens
afflicted with the B. W. D. disease
will produce less than one third as
many eggs as those hens free from
the disease. Therefore, it is not only
of value for the poultry grower who
sells Matching eggs and baby chicks
to have hocks free from B. W. d. but
those growers that depend on egg
production for a profit will be great
ly benefited by having flocks free
from this disease that greatly reduces
production.
The first essential in building a
flock free from this disease is to
clean out all reactors in your present
flock, and when purchasing either
Matching eggs, breeding stock or
baby chicks purchase only from poul-
Try growers who have had their locks
blood tested and which are free from
the disease. Growers who have bird
Of good quality and breeding, should
arrange to have the flocks blood tes-
ted sometime during this winter SO
that they may put only disease-free
birds in their breeding pens.
Taking blood samples is a very
simple matter, one which growers
can do. These samples are then sent
to the laboratory at the State Col
lege where the tests are made for B.
w. d. for a very small charge
Farmers who are interested in hav-
ing there hocks tested for Bacillary
White Diarrhea should communicate
with County Agent Ferguson who
will secure the necessary bottles for
taking blood samples and send out
full directions for taking samples.

CHEVROLET DEALERS
MEET IN new YORK

DNlIQlI- CUMMING t>
ment seven days ago of the improved
1880 Chevrolet Six at greatly re-
duced prices, the Chevrolet Motor
| Company last week launched manu-
featuring and sales activities design
ed to meet the requirements OF what
promises to be another record for the
public acceptance of six cylinder auto
mobiles.
Factory officials expressed them
selves as highly gratifed over the
reception Of the new Chevrolet Six at
| the New York National Automobile
| Show last week. Thousands Of or
ders and hundredes Of congratulatory
letters from the nationwide Chevro-
let dealer organization told some
thing of the success with which the
new product is meeting across the
United States.
Meanwhile, so that the thousands
of orders already on hand may be
taken care Of with a minimum of de-
lay, the 16 giant Chevrolet factories
is at the highest January level in the
history of the Company with many
of the plants maintaining two shifts.
At the same time the sales division
under the direction Of H. ]. King
Ter, vice president and general sales
manager, sounded the formal opening
gun of the nationwide sales campaign
on Wednesday, January 8, at a NAM
9th Chevrolet dealer meeting in New
York. Two thousand dealers from
various parts of the Atlantic seaboard
heard the Chevrolet sales chief out
line the COmpany's plans for the year
of 1880.
The New York meeting was the
first Of a series Of Al similar gather
ings that will be held this winter
from coast to coast in a comprehen-
sive effort to apraise the Company's
far flung dealer organization Of the
plans which Chevrolet has arranged
for 1880. In the course Of these
meetings, which will continue unit
the third week in February, every
| Chevrolet dealer in the United States
will have the opportunity of listen
ing at first hand to the Chevrolet
message for 1880 and talking with
Central Office officials.
Gatherings in each city embrace
a business show in the afternoon and
a banquet in the evening. The after
noon business meeting is perhaps
the most unique and comprehensive
ever undertaken by a large industrial
organization
To make this business show pos
sible more than a carload OF drops
curtains and stage fixtures are taken
to each city. Perhaps S5O,0Ot
to stage the afternoon performance
A GROUP of professional stage hands
travel with the party and handle the
work back stage.
In order to get the Chevrolet mes
sage over TO the dealer organization
in as short a space Of time as pos
sible, four groups of officials are con
Quoting meetings simultaneously.
Heading the party that will con
duct meetings in the southwest
California, and the Pacific northwes
will be D. E. Ralston, assistant gen
eral sales manager. The part.
making the northeastern cities will b
