Tic Links for Capital: Campbell 7rie
20 Years Ago
In The Star.

TRACK athletes in schools and
l. college in the District area get
down to post-holiday training 1t is
thought likely that Coach Bill Foley
of Central High will not enter a
relay team in the race fer the scho-
lastic trophy in the George Washing
ton University meet but will go after
the schoolboy cup offered the insti-
tuition whose athletes score the most
points. It is believed, however, that
Central will enter relay team in
the Georgetown meet in the race for
the prep school title.
Business High ha9 hopes of turn
ing out great team, and Tech with
Jimmy Mulligan coaching, and
Western figure to have the largest
squads striving for track honors in
the annals of the schools.
Manager Keats and Capt. Fleming
expect squard of 35 to report for
the George Washington team.
Announcement that Johnny Priest,
Washington boy, an inflelder, is
shipped by the New York team to
Indianapolis causes surprise as Man
ager Jim McAleer of the Washing
ton team was sweet on Priest who
formerly played shortstop for the
Danville team. Despite his extreme
youth Priest, who stands 6 feet,
made a fine record with Danville.

~ F all the favoriteS who fell
by the wayside in the
~ toughest trial of skill and
courage the game of duck
pins has known-the National
Duckpin Bowling Congress Sweep
Stakes-none was nearly so disap-
pointed as Howard Campbell.
Had the King Pin captain tri-
umphed, his victory would have
been accepted quite as matter
of course, for what other bowler
in the East has been so consist
emily efficient under fire? That
he finished third from last in a
field of 80 remains as the great
est surprise of an altogether sur
prising affair.
1t was plain that Campbell was not
himself, but he of the stout heart today
presented no excuse. Instead he looked
eagerly to his appearance tonight in
The Evening Star Yuletide tournament
at the Coliseum which will give him
opportunity to make up bit for his
failure Saturday.
Campbell will lead his famous King
Pins into action at o'clock. They will
be the featured performers on the eve
nlng's program, occupying drives IL, IA
and Is. In the stellar group besides
Howard will be Glenn and Jack VOLS
tenholm, prize winners last year; Glen
Weidman and Bernie Frye.
NNE of the most dangerous Of to-
~ nights sharpshooters will be Perez
Wolfe of Hyattsville, who sports
high averages in several leagues and
several weeks ago shot two consecutive
league sets in the 400 class. Perce is
scheduled for $50 on drives 10 and 10.
Among the girl leaders in the o'clock
shift are Eva Guide, Lucille Preble, Doris
Goodal, Frances He'll, Jennie Malcolm,
Gladys Lowd and last, but far from
least. Bess Ackman Mrs. Ackman is
the defending champion of the womens
division.
The tournament will come to a close
Wednesday night when a group of stars
including Jack Whalen, national sweep
stakes champion, will shoot. Two
squads have been left open Wednesday
to take care of postponements and late
entrants. Bowlers who care to roll that
night are requested to be on hand be-
fore O'Clock.
A feature of closing night will be the
of prizes won by Washing
ton bowlers in the national stakes, with
Secretary George Isemann officiating.
Those to be rewarded are Whalen,
Bradley Mandley, second place winner,
and Burt Parsons, who finished fifth.
TSEMANN, incidentally, and the Lucky
4 Strike staff were coming in for much
favorable comment for the manner
IN which the national tournament was
conducted. If such a thing as perfec-
ton is attainable in the MANAGEMENT of
a major bowling event it was achieved
in this instance It was the greatest
duckpin show Washington has wit
messed.
Where it will be held next year is a
question. but the Capital City, which
has done so much to promote the sport
will bid for it again and have a strong
argument.
The entrants came from throughout
the East, and most of them were sea-
soned campaigners, so John william
Wood, the Lucky Strike chieftain, might
well be forgiven for a Tightening about
the vest induced by the comment they
made On the splendid condition of his
mapleways and equipment.

TIPS YOUNG BASKETERS
Illinois Coach Says Schoolboys Run
Too Much in Circles.

Craig Ruby. basket ball coach at the
University of Illinois, criticizes the play
Of the average high school team. He
says
THE tendency to run in circles is
the biggest weakness of the high school
player who comes to college. Instead of
cutting straight in front of a guard to
get pass, he makes small arc around
him. He hasn't learned that straight
line is the shortest distance between
two points"

in some fresh paint on the starboard

it stuck fast in a morning after night

He roasted beneath the awning til

Major league clubs which go into

advisor. has returned from Los An

cow testers of the valley, he at
tended meeting called by G.. E.
Gordon, extension specialist in
dairying, for the COW testers of the
southern part of the state.
The chief purpose of the meeting
was to give COW testers instructions
needed in the proven sire" cam
paign which is being conducted all
over the nation.
This proven sire campaign has its
ultimate aim herd improvement,
and towards this end, attempts will
be made to secure the records of
daughters in production who have
made an improvement over their
dams. Dairymen will be encour-
aged to keep Sires until their daugh-
tiers are in production so that their
records will be known.
Each COW testing unit hopes to
obtain records of nine proven sires
but as these arc to be found only
in the most up to date herds not
many anticipate finding the nine.
