More of Those Terrors

And there is another game
that would tickle Washington
silly, now that we are devoting
the day to suggestions, and that
would be to see Western Mary
land play either Catholic Uni
versity or George washington
here the years it play George
town in Baltimore.
Briefly, Dick Harlow has at
tracted so much attention with
his football clubs that we would
like to see the Green TerrorS
here at least once a year, in
stead of once every other season
as seems to be the menu. George
town generally dosen't care to
have its opponents meet other
colleges in thiss era, but since
West >rn Maryland annually
meets Maryland, there's no rea-
son why this objection should
be too iron-clad.
It seems to us one game
would increase interest in the
other, furnishing comparisons
and the like on which to steam
up a lot of interest, year in and
year out.

Grif; White Sox Deal Hanging Fire, Is
MEN
INVOLVED,
REPORT
BY GARRETT WATERS

Although things are compara-
lively quiet on the baseball hori-
zon at this stage of the year,
what with football monopolizing
most all of the interest, there's
still that time left for the float
ing of trade rumors which each
year help keep those hot stove
league fires burning.
Locally, these rumors can be
said to be hurdling their mes
sages to all parts of the city, al
though nothing in the way of
confirmation has come from club
headquarters of the washington
Baseball Club.
That Owner Griff, of "Our
Washington Club" does intend to
strengthen his 1888 entry in some
manner, shape or form before an
other season rolls around, is a
known fact. But just what play
ers are involved in possible player
trades are not known.
Chicago Reports Interesting
However, reports from Chicago
today tell few interesting
things. They relate that a trade
is on fire between the Chicago
White Sox and the Griffs which
will bring Catcher Charlie Berry
and Pitcher Vic Frasier here in
exchange for Catcher Roy Spen-
Ger and Pitcher Fred Marberry.
Whether this pans out or not
remains to be seen, but the fact
that Griff and Joe Cronin, new
manager, recently announced
that they planned to make sew
eral additions to the pitching
and catching departments of the
team before next year, makes
the report from Chicago some
thing to think about anyhow
Berry is the catcher who used
to team with Denny MacFayden
so we'll a couple of years ago
when the pair Of battery men
we're with the Boston Red SoX.
Frasier was star with the Sox
in 1881, but was of little use to
them during the past season be-
cause of Illness. 4
Berry Would Help
Getting Berry would be pretty
smart move on the part Of Grltt.
The big fellow, although he is not
the best catcher in the world, is
the sort who can stand great
deal of work, and a guy who is a
little better hitter than Spencer,
not to mention the fact that he is
much faster on his feet than the
brittle Roy.
In reference to Frasier, this
pitcher has it all over Marberry
in age. being a youngster, while
his activities as Sox have given
every indiction that he is a de-
cided conner -erasing his 1881 rec
ord because of his illness.
AS said before, whether this
deal is hanging fire or not, it's
something to think about, par
ticularly when it's known fact
that some time soon some sort of
additions are going to be made
by the club before the 1888 season
rolls around. So, there you are,
hot-stovers. Keep those home
fires burning now.

Earl McPhilomy hung up two
new District League records last
night, rolling with Lucky Strike
against Convention Hall at the
Convention Hall Alleys.
First he totaled a 453 set, the
third highest ever rolled in the
District. Next his third game in
this set-171-was the newest and
highest total sever rolled in the
District League.
McPhilomy bested his own mark
Of AT when he turned in his 453
set. His complete games were
ia, 1853 and III. In his 1853
game he made eight marks, two
strikes and six spares. He missed
getting a mark only in his fourth
and. last boxes.
In his I'll game he made seven
marks aided by a doubleheadel
strike. He made three strikes ano
four spares. missing in only the
second, eighth and ninth boxes.
Naturally McPhilomyS bowling

out of three from Convention

By United Press
SANDWICH, England, June 10
Gene Sarazen of New York today
won the British open golf cham
pionship. His rounds of 70 and "a
today gave him an aggregate Of 283.
The issue, all but certain when
Sarazen's score was posted, became
certain when Arthur Havers, British
pro, failed to get the 10 he needed
to tie.
In winning the championship,
'Sarazen established new low ag-
gregate for the event. His total Of
283 supplanted the former record Of
285 made by Bobby Jones in win
ming at st. Andrews in 1927.
Sarazen's victory sends the cham
pionship across the ocean for the
ninth consecutive time.
First Win for Gene
Despite one of the finest records
ever compiled by golfer, Sarazen
never had been able to win the
greatest Of all tournaments until
today. The best he had ever fin
ished was second. when he was
runner-up to Walter Hagen in 1928
1t would have been a nice touch,
for Great Britain, at least, had
Havers gone crazy" on his last
round and nosed out Ssrazen. For
Havers was the winner of the tour

went to a Britisher.

was good enough for third place He
