PEACH 0 REN0' TO SHOW LAST
 TIMES TONIGHT
Wheeler and Woolsey Fri umph in Their Mirth-
 Quaking Farce

Peach O Reno hilarious farce starring Bert Wheeler, Robert Woolsey and Dot Lee, will be shown for the last times tonight at the Capitol theatre.
 Wheeler and Woolsey represent a firm of Reno divorce lawyers, and the picture is an hilarious take-off on the wide-open town.
 The comedians satirize Reno and it's chief industry with enthusiasm and a rollicking sense of humor.
 Untie Nuptial Knots
 As the law firm of Wattles and Swift they disintegrate marriages. start a cut rate divorce war, act as cupids on occasion and finally fall victim to the wiles of two girls from Main Street
 The picture is more lavishly pro- duced than previous Wheeler-Wool- sey films with elaborate courtroom, night club and the jazziest of of flee sets seen in some time.
 Excellent Cast in Picture
 Miss Lee plays opposite Wheeler, Woolsey's girl partner is zelma ONeal, pretty and inimitable con- edian of the stage and screen, while the mature romance of the picture is involved-and devolved in the divorce court between Joseph Crawford and Cora WitherSpoon, the latter of stage fame.
 Other favorites such as Mitchell Harris, Sam Hardy and Arthur Hoyt are prominent in the cast. William A. Setter directed the pie ture, which was written by Tim Whelan and adapted by Ralph Spence.

 Fear No Split
 Prominent party men from all over the country in attendance as delegates and otherwise predicted the convention battle between the Roosevelt and Smith forces would leave few traces. Although the breach between the two men re- mained an unanswered question, it was not expected to handicap the party in it's drive for victory next November.
 The New Jersey delegation, which supported Smith to the end, went home silent. Senator David I. Walsh, leader of the Massachusetts delegation, and one of the most prominent of Smiths workers, call ed on his own State to support the ticket and pledged himself to work for Roosevelt.

The first-flight finals Of the
"Uptown" golf tournament at
Rock Greek Park will be held
tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock
with Volney G. Burnett and Brad
ley H. Ted" Burrows as the
opponents.
Burrows gained the final round
yesterday by ekeing out a narrow
victory over Dave Bent, up.
They were all even going to the
final hole, but Bent met defeat
by three-putting the eighteenth
green.
The winner was hard-pressed
all the way, and never at any
time held a comfortable lead. In
tact, Bent was l up as they
Eurned for home after completing
the first nine.
Burrows Takes Lead
Burrows squared the match at
the fourteenth with a birdie
three and creeped ahead by tax
ing the fifteenth with par four.
The match was deadlocked again
when Burrows failed to reach the
sixteenth green in the regulation
two strokes, losing to Bent'S par
four. They halved the seven
teenth.

eighth, par 5, hole at Chevy

ChideS Banagan
That afternoon, Stevinson
skipped over to Chevy Chase for
a round, and then returned to
Columbia, his face growing with
smiles. He collared Banagan and
said:
"What was that you were
saying a while ago, "Reds",
about you never heard of a
birdie on that eighth over at
Chevy Chase? Well, I just
scored One."
"Oh, you would pull a stunt
like that" shot back Banagan.

RAJAH ADMITS
TALKING BACK

When Rogers Hornsby walked
about a Philadelphia hotel the
other day he looked all around
for some of the players. Then
he bought all the papers to read
about his release.
Members of the press discussed
his failure with the Cubs. The
ousted manager was not a bit
ashamed of his showing, but he
admitted that he said lots of
rough things to members of the
office staff of the Chicago team.
He seemed to think that he
could get away with it, but, too
late. he found it did not pay.

the new crop of American League
pitchers who came along with the
oldest windup in history, plenty
Of personality and bright pros

Caraway is a likeable southpaw.
He had speed and curves. He

thing happened to his stuff last
season and he wound up with a
rather unimpreSSive record of "a

the big leagues received.
Caraway is a character. He
complained, on one training trip
of being cold and asked DOME

his overcoat. Staggered. Bush
said he could. When he returned
he pitched sensational ball. Bush
was elated. Then Pat asked to

MILLER STOPS
WORRYING

One of the surprises of the late
ball season is the playing of Bing
Miller, of the Athletics. Bing,
like a lot of other aging players,
is on his way out, but the cid boy
is making it hard for the young
fellows who are ready to step into
his shoes.
Two years ago when Roger
Cramer was just beginning to
blossom as an outfielder, Miller
predicted that there was a kid
who would one day take his place.
The prediction came true, but
Miller's long rest on the bench
this season was due to mental
more than physical fall down. He
felt that he was drawing near the
close of his long big league ca
reer, but he could not understand
why. He always paid the closest
attention to the condition of his
legs, for it is there a player first
shows signs of slipping.
Miller, so he read in the papers,
had slowed up a step or two, and
those steps meant he was not fast
enough for the Athletics. He wor-
ried and fretted all the time he
was out of the lineup.
Nothing could convince him
that he had slowed up. He ask
ed players if it were true he was
slower, and none would tell him
so.
After a time Miller figured that
he was making way for better
players, so he stopped worrying
and just kept himself in the pink
of condition. The injuries to
Cramer and Ed Coleman gave
Miller his chance to play regu-
larly again, and he was in fine
shape mentally and physically to
do his best.
In the swing through the West
Miller has been the outstanding
member of the Mack troupe. He
is hitting hard and timely, and
his fielding is sensational.
81 know what keeps a player
in a slump" said Miller, the
other day. 'Tt is just plain
worry. / am going to do the
best 1 can, and if it is my last
season, am going to make the
most of it,"
The AS look better with the
veteran in the field than they did
all season.

7 PICK|NGS
FOR CARDS

The st. Louis Cardinals cannot
be counted out of the National
League race as long as the
Phillies and Reds are around and
waiting to be stepped on by the
Cardinals. For the past three
years these two clubs have been
the softest touches in the loop for
the Red Birds.
During 1880 and 1881 st. Louis
won "a out of A games from the
Phils and 80 out of A from Gin
cinnati. Their uncanny ability to
beat these clubs at will brought
two flags to the Cards.
This year st. Louis enjoys a
winning margin against only two
clubs-the Phils and Reds. They
have copped 13 out of 10 from the
Reds, and the Phillies, pennant
contenders, have been able to win
only 4 out of 13 from the slipping
Cards.
The champions spilled the
Quakers twice yesterday, both
ends of a twin bill, 7 to 6 and 6
to 4, AMI taking sixth place away
from the idle Giants. They won
both games by late rallies. Ripper
Collins led the Cards at bat with
six hits, his homer in the eleventh
inning winning the nightcap.
Jumbo Elliott pitched in both
games for the Phils and got
knocked out in both.

PL AY YGROU n D
GRID SCHOOL
VALUABLE
By HARRY COSTELLO

Any course of football instruc-
ton designed to teach proper
execution of gridiron funda-
mentals is valuable not only as
an aid in curbing injuries but
also in developing perfection of
technique in players.
For this reason, great interest
attaches to the football school at
lexington playground, First and
T Streets Northwest, which
opened yesterday and continues
for several weeks with classes
every Monday and Wednesday at
5 p. m.
Orrell Mitchell, James Farrell
and Maurice Dubofsky are the
instructors. They are all capable
men and success should crown
their efforts.
Should Send Sons
Coaches and players should
make every effort to attend this
school. Parents desiring their
youngsters to obtain necessary
fundamental football training
and education should send their
sons.
Dubofsky, former Georgetown
star, should prove particularly
valuable to the school. He is a
capable demonstration, and among
youngsters capable demonStra-
tor means much. He is master
of every block and charge
executed in the scrimmage line.
He has been trained to the ideal
of perfection in detail.
During his final year of inter
collegiate football he proved his
right to be classified as a truly
great lineman more because of
his ability to properly execute
than because OF
any other factor.
Position play in football is just
as important to enjoyment of the
game, and to ability to play it,
as school of the soldier is to the
military. without a knowledge
of fundamentals, and their proper
execution, youngster will be
lost in the shuttle. Possessed of
that knowledge, the youngster
will have a decided head-start
toward enjoyment of the game
and development Of excellent
ability.
Skimp Fundamentals
Among younger football play
ers, blocking is a bugaboo. Bang
ed up in first tries, probably be-
cause of lack of knowledge as to
how to go about execution of
fundamentals, youngsters skimp
their fundamental football educa-
ton with the result that in high
school and in college they are
called upon to overcome a de-
veloped tendency to shy away
from proper execution of funda-
mentals.
Today, and tomorrow, those
players who shy away from proper
execution of fundamentals will
have little or no chance to be-
come members Of high school or
college teams. Those youngsters
who master fundamentals should
realize that such mastery en-
hances their value as players to
teams for which they are or
will he candidates
