 To-day's model is designed along extremely slender lines.
 It's the tunic dress now so popular as fashionable gatherings. The dol man leeves stamp it's recent arrival from Paris. The decorative tucks at either shoulder give emphasis to the becoming neckline. A tie belt holds the tunic close to the figure at the waistline. The under skirt favors slight circular fulness.
 For dressy wear. it is especially nice in sheer metal lame with the under skirt of canton crepe.

I AMERICAN
LEAGUERS
ON TEAM
By BABE RUTH

For the tenth time in as many
years it Is my privilege to offer
to the fans of the country my
idea of the All-America team Of
the season. In offering this 1891
team for the approval of baseball
followers, I take occsaion to ex-
press my thanks to both fans and
press for the interest and impor-
tance which they have attached
to my choices of other years.
Little did I realize when I picked
the first team, following q
friendly discussion in the Yankee
clubhouse late in the 1922 sea-
son, that such q selection was
to be an annual thing.
As in all previous selections
I have endeavOred to name the
player who strikes me as being
the most valuable performer
Of those occupying a particular
position. Hitting, fielding,
hustling and general value to
ones team all count in reach
ing q decision.
1t happens this year that the
team seems topheavy with Ameri-
can LeaguerS. which fact lay
cause some to charge prejudice
in making the selections. / know
the figures are against me. but
consider these facts and figures.
In 1929 I named six National
Leaguers and four American
Leaguers. In 1925. 1927 and 1923
the all-America teams showed five
players from each league. In 1926
and in 1880 the American League
had the edge, six players to four.
Thus. in the past six years I have
chosen 81 American League play
ers and 20 from the National.
The Washington times., 1931-09-05
Has Named Rivals

Furthermore, there has been
only one Yankee player-Lou
Gehrig-among the 80 I have Sc
lected in the seasons of 1929-30-31.
These facts should prove that I
make selections without regard to
the league or my own, club. In
the same three seasons / have
named Jackson, LindStrom and
Terry, of the Giants, our National
League rivals in New York.
This year the team includes
seven American League players
and three National LeaguerS.
AS in other years, I have been
helped in making these choices
by committee of writer's repre-
senting nine cities in the two
major leagues. Each year I make
a comparison of my choices with
a consensus Of these writer's. This
year I find we differed in three
positions. Last year we differed
in only one. and in 1929 we
agreed on every position. But
that was the only time such Q
thing has. happened in the 10
years I have been picking these
teams. .,-
The committee of writers
working with me on the 1881
selections were as follows:
Kirk Miller, Washington Times.
Jack Malaney, POstOn Post.
Warren Brown, Chicago Herald
Examiner.
Stuart Bell, Cleveland Press.
Bud Shaver, Detroit Times.
w. 8. FarnswOrth, New York
Evening Journal.
James Isaminger, Philadelphia
Inquirer.
Harry Keck, Pittsburgh Sun
Telegraph.
John E. Wray, st. Louis Post
Dispatch.
These nine writer's agree with
me on seven players out Of ten.
There is quite a change in this
years team when you compare
it with the 1880 players. Those
named this year who also were
selected in. 1880 are Simmons,
Cochrane. Grove, Cronin and
Klein. Several players received
but a single vote or perhaps two.
The vote for positions and
players follows:

Boys Now Supple

The drawing to an end of the
first week of training by the
forty-odd players now in camp
finds, most of the charleyhorses
gone and tender feet toughen-
ing UP considerably. There is
a pronounced absence of bad
ankles and knees, in contrast
to an abundance of such in
juries a year ago at this time
when Georgetown was training
on a field that year before
had been under cultivation with
corn, cotton or perhaps sweet
peas.
Sunday services have been
arranged for tomorrow morn
ing and this will be followed
by a complete day Of rest.
CecesSion of all baseball prac-
tice has been announced for
the day. not even a blackboard
practice being on the schedule.
Father Timothy j. Dineen,
s. j., Georgetown faculty ath-
letic moderator, is a visitor here
this week. coming Wednesday
with Mike Mcdonald. who
dropped in to measure the can
didates for uniforms. A
sprightly number of George
town alumni are expected here
from Washington and New
York over the weekend.

PLAY
Of GR|FFMEN
!. ENCOURAGES
BY GARRETT WATERS

What's gotten into the Griff-
men here lately? They certainly
are not the same sort of team
which tried but failed on the
recent Western trip.
"The boys have just struck a
winning habit" is. the way Man
ager johnson puts it. It's
really great to see them go out
and win games like they have,
isn't it?"
In plain figures the Griffs have
done just that. They started
last Sunday when they downed
the AS, S to l, at Griffith Sta
dium. They continued in New
York last Monday when they
came from behind to take that
6-to-5 thriller at Yankee Sta
dium, while ever since they've
cavorted around like worlds
champions.
Five Straight
Winning yesterdays game from
the Yankees, 5 to 4 in ten in
nings, which was another one of
those thrillers, by the way. made
it five straight Manager John
sons men have tucked under
their belts since Sunday.
All of which is a very encour-
aging showing, very encouraging
when exhibitions of the past are
considered.
The GriffS can do the most
courageous thing of their lives
by winning the current series
with the Yanko.- at this time.
There is q ble.header today
and a single game tomorrow
left before said series is a
thing of the past.
Taking the edge, if not the en-
tire set, will just about adjust
things for the remainder of the
season, if the spirit of the play
ers at the present time means
anything at all.

Crowley Likes Camp

That Georgetown is in one
Of the best training camp sites
it has occupied in the past six
years is attested by the veteran
coach, Harry Crowley, the "Old
Doctor Bones" of this and five
previous Georgetown camps
running the range from Mon
mouth Beach, Asbury Park,
Wildwood, Ocean City and
Point Lookout.
Now if you know this man
Crowley, you know that of all
his virtues, his franknesS is
outstanding. Crowley, in other
words, is no one to quibble or
equivocate and what he doesn't
know about calling a spade a
spade simply isn't in the book
of Hoyle.
Irish to the extent that his
brogue is thickeri than the fog
which settled over thc inland
this morning, Crowley is also
cryptic to a fault. His exple'
: tives are very pronounced and
he often punctuates them with
q "squit" of tobacco Juice that
seldom misses it's mark and
splatters not all.
Crowley has put his official
O. K. on this camp and un.
hesitatingly ranks it as the
finest spot for this sort of bust
ness Georgetown has selected
since he came to the Hilltop
: with Lou Little more than half
dozen years ago.

PUTTING DUEL
To FEATURE
GOLFFINAL.
BY JAMES L. KLGALLEN

BY JAMES L. KILGALLEN
BEVERLY COUNTRY CLUB.
HICAGo, Sept. 5.-Francis
Ouimet, of Boston, and Jack
Westland, of Chicago, a battle
Scared veteran and rising
young star, tee off here today in
a 36-hole match to settle the per-
ennial question of who is the best
amateur golfer in the United
States.
Ouimet, the grand old master,
is striving to overcome the handi-
caps of middle age and repeat his
victory of II years ago when, as
a youthful phenom, he won the
national amateur crown. Although
Ouimet, with his experience, which
counts in a final match played
' before scampering thousands, has
been installed the favorite, there
are many who like the chances
of Westland.
Great Match
Ouimet won his right to play
in today's classic finale by con-
ouering 19-year-old Billy Howell,
of Richmond, Va, 2 and l, in
their semi-final match. Ouinet
settled, the issue on the 35th hole
by sinking a 20-foot putt for a
birdie 2 against HoWelPS par 3.
Westland was victor, and 2,
in his Semifinal match with
Maurice J. Mccarthy, jr., Of
New York. WestIand played
steady game while Mccarthy
was slumping after having
turned in stretch of the best
golf seen during the tournament.
And when Mccarthy seemed
hopelessly defeated, that is when
he was six down and six to play,
he pulled himself together and
staged a remarkable rally to win
three holes in a row to become
three down and three to go. The
match ended on the next hole
the thirty-fourth-when both
carded fiveS.
Not Long Drivers
Neither Ouimet nor Westland
are particularly long drivers, but
they both can putt brilliantly.
Ouimet, of course, has the edge
in experience, but Westland is
far from a novice.
Ouimet feels that with the bar
rier of Jones removed from his
path he has fine chance to win
the title today.

Mr.. Cabiness had two players

came the nearest to duplicating

but in such a contest one cannot
begin to overlook even q tiny
