The Beales, F. W., Mrs. F. w.,
and Bill, in transmitting their
contributions to the Muddy Ruel
Remembrance Committee which
is headed by Postmaster William
M. Mooney, wrote under the sig.
nature of the father, F. w,
Beale as follows:
II am enclosing check for So
for the Muddy Ruel gift, 81
each from my wife, my SON
and myself.
II have been a big league
fan since 1887 or 1888 and
Muddy is one of my outstand-
ing alI.time favOrites. In my
esteem / rank him along with
Buck Ewing, ChriSty Matthew
son, Walter johnson and Iris
Speaker.
"Aside from his great work
on the field, 1 always greatly
admired his modest and gentle
manly demeanOr off the field.
81 was in the left field
bleachers when he made that
hit in the final inning of the
final game with the Giants.
1 said at the time to my son,
'Nuddy has only had one hit
this series, but I'll bet you 100
to l he makes the hit that
wins this old SerieS.'
81 hope in every crisis in his
life he may come through with
the hit that means success"
And Mr.. Beale's letter is typical
of the many which are being re-
ceived by Postmaster Mooney,
who is receiving nickels and dimes
and quarters in every mail from
the fans who think just as much

"We've had all the newest
song hits. But maybe some Of
us older folks would appreciate
some real muSic-say a favOrite
song of the old South"
The applause was deafening.
Concluding his speech with a
gesture of appreciation and bow,
ing deeply in response to an ova
ton, Altrock then turned over the
floor to the orchestra.

Imagine his horror and the
righteous indignation of home

most arrogant fashion.
After the stormy scene that
followed had finally quieted

Trainer frankie Baxter for the
break.
Baxter just as readily blamed
Schacht and, as yet the matter
still hangs in the balance.

panied by Baxter or Schacht.

of Ruel as does the Beale family.
Many of the subscribing fans
who haven't time to write are
thinking of just the very at
tributes which Mr.. Beale expresses
of Muddy when they inclose their
contributions to the gift which
Ruel is to receive from Washing
ton fans. =.
There is no reason why every
fan in Washington who recalls
Ruel's great career here can't
send along some ever so small
amount so that each may have
the satisfaction of knowing he is

which Ruel will receive. g..

WHALEN ROLLS
EDDIE ESPEY

Eddie Espey, 18-year-old duck
pin phenom, and Jakes Whalen,
U. s. Sweepstakes and N. D. B. c.
singles champion, roll the first
block of their 'head-to-head''
match at the Columbia alleys to-
night at $50. The final five
games will be rolled Saturday at
Arcadia.
Whalen, who is Is years old,
has been in the limelight for
many years.
Espey flashed into prominence
two years ago, and since has
cut himself a niche in the hall
of duckpin fame. He is N. d.
b. C. doubles champion with
Paul Harrison, and also U. s.
junior champion.
He is carrying an average OF
116 in five leagues. and better
than 100 in some IS special
matches with the National Pale
Dry Juniors.
Several leading bowlers are
clamoring for a chance at the
winner of the present match.
John Blick is backing Whalen
and Lewis Hopfenmaier, Espey.
The Washington times., 1931-03-25


A hackneyed adage, perhaps,
but one that was brought home
forcibly to your Uncle" Nick
Altrock the other night.
In the beginning it may be
timely to divulge that Biloxians
idolize Altrock. In parades, which
are frequent down here, it is Nick
who is forced to tip his cap in re-
sponse to cheering and general
enthusiasm caused by his ap-
pearance.
Taking these things into con-
sideratiOn, it is unbelievable
that AltrOck could even mildly
arouse the ire of these gentle
native folk.
It was in the lobby of the spa
cious Hotel Biloxi only a few
nights ago that the plot was laid.
A dance, and a real one was
being staged, and Southern hos
pitality was booming at it's high
est point.
Carnival of Merriment
The Southland's beauty and
chivalry intermingled in carni-
val of merriment and a grand
time was being had by one and
all.
For some two hours, almost
without a stop, the dancers
waItzed and fOxtrOtted to old
and new favOriteS, and good
feeling was the order.
Then came a recess. And one
of the more observing merrymak-
ers spotted none other than
Your Uncle Nick" shuffling in
from a downtown tour.
Good old Nick" he beloved,
"shOw us some tricks"
That was the starting signal.
Altrock was veritably deluged
by request numbers and, always
obliging, he complied.
His Partner Missing
His partner in crime, Al
schacht, was painting Gulfport,
Miss, red, white and blue, SO
Nicholas was forced to do a solo
And did he click?
His one man wrestling act
brought down the house; he
sang "Six Bits from Lucia"
with the fervOr of a CarusO
and his Stunt-making, general
ly, was greeted by gales of ap-
plauSe.
Having finished his routine he
stepped up on the band masters
platform and announced:
'Ladies and gentlemen, I
thank you for your splendid re-

FAST GRAPHING
BOUTSDUE

Local wrestling fans are due
for an exciting night tomorrow
at the Washington Auditorium
as Promoter Joe Turner is pre-
senting five bouts of extraordi-
nary caliber. The main spot on
the program will be featured by
Champion Jimmy LondoS and
George Hagen, the ex-Marlne.
Another sell-out is the prospect
and the Auditorium doors may
have to be closed again as was
the case when Londos appeared
here a few weeks ago.
The local fans are stringing
along with Londos because he's
the champion but Hagen will
prove no push-over. He has
gained the admiration of Wash
ington wrestling enthusiasts and
they look for the eX-Marine to
give the Greek much more than
mere workout.
Hagen thinks he has
chance to throw LOndOS and
has specially prepared himself
for this match. He expects
to enter the ring in the best
condition of his wrestling Ca
reer and guarantees the fans
will witness some fierce action.
Washington fans who dislike
Chief White Feather will have
an opportunity to explode their
hatred when the Indian grapples
with George Tragos, the tough
st. Louis Greek. The Chief has
never gained the good will of
local fans because of his cruel
tactics.
Gentleman" Mike Romano
who forgets his chivalry when
the other party starts to rough
house the match, will face
Ghafoor Khan, the gentle
Afghan. Babe Caddock, the
western Express" tackles Ernie
Stephens, of Detroit, and Paul
Jones, the Texas scissors" man,
meets Nazzareno Poggi, the Phila-
de1phia Italian. The first pre-
liminary will be called at $50
o'clock.

FED PINE 7 TES
IN VITAL TILT

The long-deferred and much
discussed match between Navy and
War, which will have an impor-
tant bearing on the Ladies Fed
eral League pennant race, is
scheduled for 6 o'clock Friday at
the Arcadia.
The match, regularly scheduled
in February, was postponed be-
cause several of the best bowlerS
on each team we're ailing. Differ
ences regarding eligibility of GER
tain pinsters prevented the two
teams from getting together be-
fore. Everything has been AMIGA
bly, settled, however.
War is leading the league by a
very small margin, with Navy
right behind them, so if Navy,
greatly strengthened by the addi-
ton of Lorraine GULL during the
final series, wins Fridays match,
it will loom as favorite to cop
the flag.
Bernie Frye and Glenn VOL
StenhOlme are breezing along
brilliantly as the season nearS
the close. Last night Frye
rolled 385, and Glenn 376 to
permit King Pin to smother
Hecht Co. with an 1929 set in
the District League. Furr'S S66
was high for Hecht.
Lucky Strike spilled the pins
but Insurance Stars collected the
gravy last night in National Capi
tai League. Thye won two games
by getting just enough pins II
the first two games; then Johnny
Anderson rolled 161 to give the
Luckies the last with a 626. An
derson had 372. Voight's 344 was
high for the victors.
Ball & Smith pinsters heape6
up mighty 648 game to prove
to Pioneer Market, in the Colum
bia Heights League, that they
could bowl. They scored two
wins.
A. Killer, with a 1913 game and
300 set, helped her team, Christ
in the Ladies Lutheran League
to roll a 502 game and 1,419 set
believed to be new marks for this
league. Miller of Trinity No.

F FREEMAN ADDS
To MAT CARD
'If it's wrestling, we'll put it
on for them"

on for them"
That's what Joe Freeman,
wrestling promoter, had to say
about the local grapple situation
today as he acknowledge ed receipts
of a telegram completing two
more bouts for his next show at
the Strand Theater, March 81.
"Take look at this and then
agree that we're going to have
swell show next week."
grinned Freeman.
The latest the promoter has
done to balance his show is to
sign Pat McGill and Andy Brown,
as we'll as George Vassell and
Rex Smith.
With Jack Sherry already signed
to fight Boris Demitroff, Free
man has a trio of bouts which
should give the fans much to
buzz about for the next few
days.
These three bouts, by the way,
will all be fought to the finish.
And the sextet of fighters are all
heavieS, which indicates "big"
show, to say nothing else.
McGill is the wrestler with the
famous lift and whirl hold, the
hold he originated in this country
several years ago and which many
wrestlers have attempted to copy
with little success.
Brown comes with the enviOuS
record of having been up against
Joe Stecher, former heavyweight
champion; Stanislaus ZbySzkO,
Wladek ZbySZkO, brother Of
StaniSlauS: Charlie Hanson, Re
natO Gardini, Howard Canton
wine and others.
VaSsell is one of the big men
of the ring. weighing 205 pounds.
He has done most of his graphing
in Ohio and Illinois. but has Jared
pretty we'll in matches around the
New England States recently.
Smith will be up against heavy
who has championship visions, in
Vassell. Smith, a raw-boned fel-
low, topping Vassell by S pounds,
is confident>of putting up a good
showing, or else he opines his
name of the Michigan Wildcat, I"
doesn't mean a thing. He has
done tie most of his wrestling in
the West and comes with an envi-
able record.

and selections from the operas.
Among the spirituals were three
new songs introduced for the first
time last night. One, Does All
Luv You" is by Jules Bledsoe.
He was received enthusiastical-
ly and called upon to sing two
request songs, Water Boy and
The Volga Boatman."
