JACK QUINN TO WORK RELIEF TURNS FOR 1881 ROBINS
Maryland Washington College Reneu Floor Series Tonight
Today's
Sportorial
BY KIRK MILLER

I am not exactly clear on
the matter, and as this is writ
ten Joe Turner is out of town
so can't be asked, but I have
been doing no little wondering
as to exactly what Max Schme-
ling is supposed to do on the
wrestling card at the Audi
torium tomorrow night.
Certainly he won't be al.
lowed to box anybody and just
as certainly his willy manager,
Joe Jacobs, won't permit him
to wrestle anybody. What then
is he here for? Are folks
going to pay money just to gaze
at him standing up there grin
ming over the footlights at
them?
Last fall, if you recall, Primo
Camera dragged his two big
satchels across the ring at one
of these Auditorium wrestling
bills, but his case was different.
Camera is a physical mon
Strosity and attracts crowds
wherever he goes and no doubt
many people paid money more
to look at him than in antici-
patton of anything the big
fighter would be able to do
along the lines of his profes-
sion here in Washington where
the only fighting permissible
is in Congress.
True, Schmeling is the cham
pion of the world, horizontal
champion you may say, but
that is about all. He's nothing
much in the way of physique to
look at, not a great fighter by
any means, but with more eX-
perience may become one. Ex-
actly what his status on a
wrestling bill is, we don't un-
derStand.
Unlike Dempsey, Schmeling is
not refereeing. He isn't popu-
lar enough either at home or
here to really be called an
added attraction. Washing
tons public probably isn't gull
lible enough to stampede the
Auditorium just to get a look
at man who is a cheap cham
pion at best and absolutely
void of color. The usual num-
ber of wrestling customers will
probably be there.

SINGLE SOCCER
CAME SUNDAY

The only soccer attraction here
Sunday afternoon will be a game
between two groups of youthful
American players on the Silver
Spring field at 2:30 o'clock. It
will be the opening round of the
international series of the Wash
ington and Southeastern District
Soccer Association.
The players were chosen from
the RoSedale, Marlboro and Rock
vile teams. One group was Sc
lected by Melvin Wilson, man,
ager of the Rosedale team, and
the other by Richmond Bowie. of
the Marlboro club. Wilson chose
seven of his own players.

Former Buc Pitcher
Prefers Airplanes
To Baseball

Joe Dawson, former Pitts
burgh Pirate pitcher who quit
the game for aviation in 1929,
has been shifting the air these
days with the coming of spring
and enjoying the sensation that
comes to all players as the
time approaches to go into
training, but he says that not
withstanding the thrill that
such thoughts give him he likes
flying too well to return to base
ball.
Dawson conducts one of the
oldest flying schools around
Pittsburgh and has five planes
in commercial service there.
I'm not sorry quit, although
this aerial game is still in its
babyhood, but I'll always be
fond of baseball" says Dawson.

Tinker Reminisces

Joe Tinker recently spun a
very humorous yarn about the
famous King Cole, the incident
occurring when the King was a
rookie pitcher with the Chicago
Cubs.
It happened in training camp.
Tinker stopped at the cashiers
desk in the hotel to pay a laun-
dry bill one morning, and as he
passed over the money Cole
drifted by.
What was you payin'?" Cole
inquired. They told me that
the club paid everything around
here"
"Oh, I was just paying my
elevator fare" Tinker explained.
The club pays most everything,
but to keep the players from
riding up and down too much
the boss says we have to pay
our own elevator fares"
GOSH" Cole calculated, you
know I've been ridin' them dern
things something fierce and I
amt paid a cent yet"
That's tough" Tinker sympa-
thized, because they've got you
charged with every trip and
they're liable to pull a bill on
you any time"
Believe it or not, Tinker de-
clares, Cole walked the seven
flights to his room thereafter as
long as the club remained in
camp.

GR|FF NEMESIS
TOPERFORN

An old time Washington Club
baseball nemesis, namely Center
Fielder Mule Haas, of the world
champion Athletics, will hold
down a regular guard tonight
when the major league All Stars
oppose Skinker Eagles at Silver
Spring Armory.
Washingtonians will readily
identify Haas when play opens
at $50 o'clock.
More than once the graceful
Texan has electrified local audi
ehces with phenomenal catches
and opportune hits.
The Mule. incidentally, will
be accompanied by a running
mate well known t. the Dis
trict. Roy Sherid, Yankee re-
lief pitcher extraordinary, is
to stack up against big Duke
Allen.
Stars of less magnitude, but
nevertheless we'll known profes-
sional players, are to supplement
this pair.
An ttractive preliminary
brings together Census Enumera-
tors and Fort Myer at 1880
o'clock.

Fonseca S Big Six

Lew Fonseca, of the Cleve-
land Indians, is quoted as de-
claring there are only six pitch
ers in the American League, the
others being merely throwers.
Lew nominated Sam Jones, Ted
Lyons, Herb Pennock, Danny
MacFayden, George Blaeholder
and George Uhle.
Fonseca might easily have
stretched his Big Six" to a
u. Big Eight" for certainly Bump
Hadley and Alvin Crowder don't
merely stand there in the box
and just lob them over.
However, Fonseca did go so
far as to say that Washington
has a smart infield with plenty
Of speed and fight and can be
, expected to be heard from in
1881. He also looks for improve
ment in Detroit as we'll as Cleve-
land.
Other opinions of Fonseca in
clude that Connie Mack is not
a particularly great manager,
which seems like an amazing
statement when one recalls he
won a pennant with what many
baseball minds have called a
tiVe-man ball club.

MAKE SHOWING
On MAT CARD

The bold Chief White Feather,
heavyweight Indian wrestler, eX-
poets to reach the top flight at
the expense of Jim McMillen
whom he meets in the feature
bout OF stellar card tomorrow
night at the Washington Audi
torium. The redskin has been
rapping at the portals for a long
spell and thinks the time ripe
for the doors to admit him.
Less than two weeks ago, Nc
Millen gave Champion Jimmy
Londos a bitter struggle before
$4,000 frantic fans in the Madi-
son Square Garden before yield
ing the decision. The former Illl-
nois gridder took some hard
bumps on the football field, so he
won't mind Chief White Feathers
punches. Not, at all.
The chap who'll come in for the
most notice tomorrow night will
be Max Schmeling, the German
Dempsey and world heavyweight
boxing champion everywhere save
New York. Der Make won his
title in the ring but Bill Muldoon
& Co. relieved him of his laurels
without blow being struck.
The supporting cast of wrest-
lers for the main event is of high
order. George Hagen, who served
with the Marines in the Big Fight,
will face John Maxos, the Greek.
Milo Steinborn, the German
Iron Horse" tangles with Matros
Kirilenko, the Russian. There's
a throwback to the Big Fight for
you-German against Russian.
The opening bout will bring to-
gether Tiny Roebuck and Jack
WaShburn at $50 o'clock.

SCHOOLGIRLS
CAN 7 AGREE
I On TIE

After a two-hour meeting this
morning, the high school princi-
pals we're unable to come to a
decision as to playing off the tie
in the interhigh school basketball
series.
Yesterday when Tech spiked
Business in one end of the
double-header at Tech High
School, 81 to 10, while Eastern
was being edged out by Central,
80 to 10, Mckinley automatically
went into an interhigh series
leadership tie with the Guyonites.
The question confronting the
school heads today-if they band
into CONFERENCE.-THE be the
scholastic standing of Everett
Johnson, clever Tech guard, who
opposed Central recently. It is
thought that johnson was in
eligible to participate in that
game.
Should Central be awarded the
forfeiture it will replace Tech as
the championship aspirant. There
fore it will engage the Lincoln
Parkers in the titular play-off.
Shirley Falls Short
That a play-off will be staged
is assured. And on the strength
of yesterdays showing, Central,
if declared winner over Tech, can
more than hold its own.
When Dallas Shirley failed to
cash two free throws with 80
seconds to go yesterday, Central
won a well-merited verdict over
Chief Charley Guyon's Light Blue
and White.
The Mt. PIeaSanters surprised
by completely SmOthering East
ern'S vaunted offensive and at
the same time penetrating
supposedly rugged Offense.
1t was a nip-ard-tuck affair
throughout. So close was first
half play that the teams were
deadlocked at Sail. Central cap
tured a 1913 advantage at the
end of the third period.
Steaming into the finish, East
ern lost its golden opportunity to
register when Shirley, composedly
enough, missed two foul shots. Big
Bill Noonan attempted to follow
up, but missed fire just before the
gun.
BurkeaShineS
Bill Burke, Central forward,
was the games big noise. Six
times he cut the cords from scrim-
mage, while three charity shots
trimmed the hoop.
Tech showed surprising strength
while Souting Business. Two
EVeretts-RusSell and Johnson
got a hot hand as their cluo
coasted in.
Russell located the basket
from scrimmage six times, while
Johnson Tailed five double
deckerS.
The Orange and Blue was off
color throughout the game.
Therefore, with a Tech quintet
waging its prettiest fight of the
year, Lynn Woodworth's men were
easily subdued.

! !. COMEBACK
.--
By LES CONKLTN

Dy LES OOANAANA+N
NEW YORK, Feb. 11.--"JaCk
Quinn now pitching for Brook
lyn."
If this announcement is flashed
over the wires some fine sfter-
noon during the world ser!eS this
fall, the stage will be set for
gripping drama. And it Is not
improbable that the veteran spit
ball pitcher, signed by Brooklyn
yesterday after being cu5 adrltt
by the Athletics last yea may
face his former teammates lr the
1881 post-season classic.
While the acquisition ot Ola
John Picus does not assure BROOK
lyn of the pennant by any man
mel of means, it has give1 the
club added strength where IT was
most needed-in the box.
Dave Driscoll, business man
ager of the Robins, predicted to-
day that National League bats
men will be duck soup for Quinn's
spitball. He pointed out that Bur
leigh Grimes and Clarence Mitch
ell the only other moist ball
artists in the league, have been
successful and declared that
Quinn will be equally effective,
with the aid of the deadened ball
which will be used this year.
To Work Relief
Quinn will be used mainly as
relief pitcher, which will in truth
be a relief to DazZy Vance, Dolf
Luque and the other Robin regu
lars. Last season they frequently
had to be pitched out of turn to
relieve other members of the staff
who we're knocked out Of the box.
Vance, Luque, Phelps, Thurs
ton, Clark, and Moss accounted
for 73 of BroOklyn's 86 victories
last season. Quinn should
equal the 10 triumphs turned
in by Jumbo Jim Elliot, subse-
quently traded to the PhillieS.
But his real worth should be in
saving games as a relief pitcher,
although Drisc0Il said today
that the OldSter will be used as
q starting regular if he demon
Strates his ability to go the
route.
The Robins hope to uncover
another recruit pitching find such
as Phelps was last season. They
have given up hope of obtaining
either Willie Sherdel or Ed
Brandt, the Boston southpaws.
One weak feature of the Brook
Vn hurting corps is that there
are only two lefthanders, Clark
and Heimach. Another is that
most of the pitchers are we'll
along in years and may be un-
able to Withstand the rigors of
another campaign. Quinn is be-
tween As and so, Luque 80, Vance
81, Thurston 38. Phelps, who is
81, is the youngest of the others.
Brooklyn Enthused
All the club needs to do now
10 make the pitching staff an old
mans home is to sign Grover
Cleveland Alexander and Ole Man
River.
Uncle Wilbert Robinson, how
ever, always has qualified as
miracle man in infusing new life
into veteran hurlers obtained
from the American League. Jack
Coombs, Sherry Smith, and Dus-
ter Mails, after leaving the
junior organization, took a new
lease on life under Robby's guild
ance.. Quinn may do the same.
Brooklyn is all agog over it's
pennant prospects. The acquisi-
tion of Lefty O'Doul means that
the club will be unsurpassed in
batting power. And Fresco
Thompson, also obtained from
the Phillies, should plug a hole
at second base that cost the team
q dozen games last season.

For the first time since 1928.
Maryland and Washington Col
lege will clash in basketball to-
night in the Ritchie Gym at Col
lege Park, Md, at 8:15 o'clock.
The Old Liners beat the Eastern
Sho' collegians, 22-20, in their
last meeting. Washington College
upset Western Maryland, 42-31,
last night at Westminster, Md.
Washington College today ad-
mittedly is not the basketball
combination of several years ago,
when it stalked through this sec
ton as hurricane, laying flat
opposing quints. The team re-
tains some of its old punch in
Giraitis, it's star forward. Coach
Burton Shipley, of Maryland, will
have a gloomy evening if Girai-
tis breaks out with scoring
rash tonight.
Tom Kibler, veteran basketball
coach at Washington College, will
have his best combination on
the floor. The Shore squad is
now free of illness and has re-
gained Pat Gamer, whom the
FLU" had shelved. He returned
to the game last week and his
brilliant play gave no indication
that he had been sick.
Ed ROnkin stands the hero of
Maryland's 33-31 victory over
the North Carolina U. five last
night in an extra-periOd game
at College Park, Md. It was a
game that left the fans dizzy,
the lead changing hands eight
times and the score being tied
on IA occasions.
With Maryland trailing and less
than one minute of play left,
Ronkin arched the tying field
goal. Then he deposited two more
goals to clinch victory in the over
time session. Ronkin was also the
top scorer of the evening with 13
points. Bozie Berger, of Mary.
land, and Alexander, of the Tar
heels, were next with 10 points
apiece.
Burgess Scores Points
They can't keep down this For
rest Burgess, George Washington
basketball ace, even when his
team loses. Rider College, of
Trenton, N. j., registered it's thir-
teenth straight win of the season
by beating the Colonials, $50,
last night in the G. w. gym, but
Burgess managed to mark up II
points against such powerful op-
position. Just a good baSketer,
this Burgess. The Colonials might
have made things warmer for
Rider had they been more sue
cessful in their attempts from the
free lane.
Rev. r. Rush Rankin, S. j.,
dean of Georgetown University,
today confirmed reporst that Bob
Brennan, end and captain-elect
of the Hilltop football team:
Russell "Packy" White, pitcher,
and Bill Rapp and Ed Leary,

 Just look at the features-per- fect" Observing more closely, it dawned upon Aileen that the statue was Vivienne.
 For a moment Aileen was stun ned Then her own admiration for the little masterpiece overcamc the scruples that were inherent in her A burst of applause aroused her. Vivienne and Dwight Chan ming were smiling their acknowl- edgsment of what was a real ova- tion.
 Aileen caught sight of Jimmy She called to him and he hastened to her.
 You haven't danced with me once!" She chided him as they moved off over the floor. Have you been hiding or sitting them out with some girl in the garden?"
 He evaded the answer. He could not tell her he had been sulking in the corner. Perhaps she sensed his feeling, for the clasp of her hand grew tighter and she cuddled closer as she looked up at him.
 Aileen, too, felt growing rest lessness. Something told her that this night was a turning point in her life Was Jimmy slipping away from her? Was she to lose him completely? In way, she realized that from now on she must belong to her public.
 Over Jlmmy's shoulder, she could see Vivlanne, once more surround
