HORNERP|NMEN
WIN a T|LTS
IN ROW
By GINO SINH

The Stanley Horner team in
the Automotive Duckpin League
has accomplished a remarkable
feat.
It has won "a straight games,
which as far as available records
show, is without precedent in
duckpin annals. The winning
streak started with the beginning
of the season.
While it is undoubtedly the
most powerful aggregation in this
eight-team circuit, averaging
around 533, it does not outclass
the field by such a sweeping
margin.
Three teams, Steuart Motor, L.
P. Steuart and Buick Sales are
all scrambling the naples at
creditable clip, the first named
team holding pace in the neigh
borhood of 525, average enough
to stop any five bowlers.
Davidson Sets Pace
The ace of the Stanley Horner
outfit is Tom Davidson, Bethesda
crack pinspiller. He is well in
the lead for high average league
honors with a 1877, with Earl
Smith, a teammate, next in line
with 110-19. Trivett is third
high with 108, with H. Smiths
103, and Williams and Henry's
81 each rounding out the lineup.
That the combination is shoot
ing steady duckpins is apparent
in the fact that their highest
team game is 500, and their high
est set, 1,704, both league marks,
by the way, but, in these days of
by many fairly strong loops.
A parallel in reverse English is
the B. and o. crew in the Ma
tional Capital League. They
achieved the unique distinction
of having lost 81 straight games,
before they finally broke into the
winning column. But this team,
with only one win in 33 tries,
boasts a higher game, 602, than
the AutomotiVe League steam
rollers.
ZeiIer'S Lead No Surprise
Andy zeiler gaining the lead
in the Maryland Sweepstakes with
a 661 set occaSioned no surprise
to his 81 other rivals. In fact, it is
the source of much worry. The
quiet, hard-working Baltimorean
is a sweepstakes bowler de luxe.
No flashy performer, he always
gets his share of pins under all
circumstances.
Last year he won the Baltimore
City Sweepstakes, a 20-game test,
with a record 2.513 total. His
four sets were all we'll over 600.
Going into the final block he was
in front by 18 pins. He finished
SO pins ahead of the runner-up.
Can you blame the other boys for
being worried?

PROBLEMFOR
6, v, COACH

With material so plentiful and
proficient, Head Coach Jim Pix
lee is having a time trying to
determine the personnel of the
first-string basketball team at
George Washington University
Pixlee has but two more days to
pick his starting lineup, as the
Colonials are due to open
their campaign Wednesday night
against Shenandoah College on
the H Street court.
Assisted by Ted OLeary, for
mer Kansas University big Six
forward and a scoring star, who
recently joined the coaching
staff, Pixlee has sent his charges
through a series of tough scrim,
images for the past 10 days. Reg.
ular games have been played by
the 18 aspirantS for the five var
sity berths, but as yet their per
formances have been so even
that no certain five stand out
above the others.
Veterans on Hand
All of last years regular quin.
tet remain in the fold. They are
Wick Parrack, six-foot-five forward
and leading District college
scorer; Forrest Burgess, forward
and leading scorer of 1890; Ty
Hertzler. six-foot-five center; Capt.
OTIS zahn, former Eastern
High star, who plays at guard,
and Wayne Chambers, captain of
the Colonial 1882 football team,
who also holds down a guard po-
Sition.
Stern competition for varsity
assignments is being offered by
COX" Wickham, six-foot-five soph-
omore center; Big Bill Noonan,
six-foot-four guard and center;
Dallas Shirley, another sopho-
more guard; Johnny Fenlon, hero
of the Colonial gridiron forces,
who seeks a guard job, and Fred
Mulvey, a candidate for for
ward berth.
Players Are Tall
In addition to this group there
are Ozie Wray, forward and cen
ter; Lee Carlin, Jimmy Howell
and Kirk Norton, forwards; John
Tompkins, Lavergne Sheriff., Bill
Parrish and Truman Keesey,
guards.
The 18 players average 6 feet
2 inches in height, which is some
thing of a record in this section
of the collegiate basketball realm.

their problem by cOnceding the
touchdown, which also brought

S|LENTS QU|NT I
IN SPEEDY
DRILLS

Coach Wally Krug brooks no In
reference with running his team
out at Gallaudet College. for the
Blue basketball mentor has been
running his boys at top speed
throughout the week. Putting in
extra licks. the Blues are coming
along rapidly.
With the first game scheduled
for next Saturday night. Decem-
ber 10, when the alumni team is
encountered, the Blues are COM
ing along fast. Twenty-eight men
are out for the squad.
Two Squads
Coach Krug has divided the men
into two squads of IA men each,
and expects soo1 to cut each
squad down to 10 men. The boys
are fighting hard to remain on
the squads, and the fight is a
merry one to watch. Coach Krug
is bewildered as to who the LUCKY
boys will be. In several instances
short boys are taking the laurels
out of the hands of the lankier
contestants.
While nothing definite can be
said as yet, the firststring lineup
seems to rely upon Capt. George
Brown and John "ChicO Davis
as forwards; Cowboy (Joseph)
Burnett. tall Utahan, at center,
and the veterans, Jimmy Rayhill
and Heimo Antila, as guards.
Capable Subs
Capable reserves seem to be Ste
phen Koziar, Kenneth Purdett,.
Seth Crockett, Merle Goo h. r.
Roy Turner, Bob Layne, ! dizzy
Higgins and Jack Montgon y
In the first game Of the kson
the alumni will be coached by
Teddy Hughes, and among those
in the lineup are Delmar Cos
grove, of Washington State, twice
leading scorer in the District;
John Wurdemann, of this city;
Hoberman, of Ne Jersey; Bill
Grinnel, of Pennsylvania; Noah
Downes, of Rockville, Md, center
or the 1918-19 team that captured
the District of Columbia cham
pionship, and Louis Pucci, of this

Or was it the lackadaisical, Sc
cretive methods resorted to by the
faculty committee of the Western
Conference?
Or did Southern California in
tend all along to administer Field
ing CHurry-UpO Yost a slap for
leading the sentiment against al
loving Northwestern to go West
for the Rose Bowl game last year?
The invitation and Pitts &C
ceptance were a stunning blow to
Big Ten fans. For it was felt
certain the Wolverines would get
the bid. And it also appeared that
the faculty committee Of the Big
Ten would waive the conference
statutes limiting the number of
games to seven and forbidding
post-season games, and allow the
Wolverines to accept the invita-
ton.
Tired of Waiting
But evidently the West grew
tired of waiting for the Big Ten
to make up it's collective minds.
And the Big Ten recognized its
chastisement today and planned
to take steps to prevent similar
occurrence in the future at the
annual meeting of the faculty
committee here.
Previous to the announcement
that Pitt had been asked and had
accepted, Prof. o. F. Long, North
Westerns representative on the
committee, said:
TO SETTLE SITUATION
Regardless of whether or
not Michigan is invited to the
Coast, we plan to settle once
and for all the pOst-seasOn game
situation. The conference rules
which prohibit such games will
be carefully considered"
Kenenth L. CTug'O Wilson,
Northwestern director of athletics,
also declared he favored a
change in the conference rules,
but did not favor doing away
with the schedule limitations en-
tirely.

Duke winter sports squads are
now preparing for their coming
seasons schedules. Daily prac-
tices are being held under Coaches
Eddie Cameron, BASKETBALL; Add
Warren, boxing and wrestling,
and Jack Person, swimming.
The Blue Devil court campaign
will begin with an invasion of the
Washington district on December
1917 where games will be played
with Georgetown, Catholic Uni
versity and George Washington.
Anxious to retain their State
title, the swimming squad began

Coach Person indicated that sew
eral outstanding freshmen can!
didates promised to aid in the
development of a good frosh team.
Dukes wrestling schedule this
year will be limited to three
meets, with Davidson Carolina,
and State. Coach Warren will
have practically the same team
that represented Duke last year.
Prospects for another successful
boxing team are considered none
too bright, three weight divisions
still lacking an exceptional candi-
date. Captain Fred Lloyd, 115'
pound Southern conference cham
pion, has taken on additional
weight since last year and may
be forced to enter the 125-pond

EIGHT GAMES ON SCHOLASTIC FLOOR SCHEDU
ROOSEVELT,
CENTRAL IN
DEBUT
BY GARRETT WATERS

They've often said that Old
King Cole was a merry old soul,
and a truly merry soul in his
day.
But Old King Basketball gets
Just as merry, if not more so,
every year the basketball months
roll around. This year promises
no exception. particularly among
the scholastics because so many
games are listed.
Old King Basketball loves it,
however, and his smiles get
broader and broader when he
knows there's an abundance of
action and games, games, ana
more games are being played.
This week, among the scholas-
tics, eight contests will truly get
Old King Basketball off to a
smiling, rouSing start.
Games Every Day
Games every day are scheduled
with two in one day namely,
Thursday and Friday.
The week is ushered in by
Georgetown Prep today. The
speedy Garrett Parkers are
down" to play their alumni in
a game at Georgetown Prep at
$3.50 o'clock.
Western High supplies the
action tomorrow by entertaining
the Wilson Teachers at Western
at $3.50 o'clock.
Georgetown Prep once again
bobs into the spotlight on
Wednesday. On this day, the
Garrett Parkers will travel to
Towson, Md, to engage the
Immaculate High School five at
that town.
Thursday, the first of the
double engagements will fea-
ture. Western plays st. Adams
at Western in one Of the games
while Central High opens its sea-
son by entertaining the Boys
Club five at Central.
Georgetown Prep gets into
action, for the third time in the
week on Friday. The opposition
will be Rockville High in this in
stance in a game at Georgetown
Prep at $3.50 o'clock.
Roosevelt in Debut.
It will be opening day for
Coach Lynn Woodworth's Roose.
velt High five. The new Stenogs
will entertain Emerson Prep in
the spacious Roosevelt gymna-
SUM and all eyes will be focused
on Coach Woodworth's team be-
cause of the interest in finding
out just what sort of an entry
he'll send into the interhigh school
series this year.
Then Saturday, Emerson will
close the week with an engage
ment with the Wilson Teachers
in a game at the latter clubs
gymnasium.
A good start for Old King Bas-
ketball-the games this week.
But how broadly the mythical old
gentlemen will smile when the
action gets more and more pro-
nounced in the weeks to come.
