 The Elks Lodge, which holds it's annual Flag Day ceremonies to- night, will defer them until after the game, it was announced.

HOW FAST IS FAST?

Speaking of speed, it seems re- markab!e sometimes that batter ever hits at all the kind of fast balls George EarnshaW or the left ies Grove, Gomez and Walberg throw
 Scientists at West Point one day tested the throwing arm of Mark Koenig when he was short stop ping for the Yankees, and by measuring the speed of a thrown ball, cutting it up into the 50 feet that stretch between the batter and the hurler, they found out that a fast ball hits a catcher's mitt less than 18th of a second after leaving the pitchers hand.

A LIGHTER BAT

Talking it over Foxx pondered several minutes before he decided to tell.
 Everyone thought" he said if nally, that because I was big and had plenty of power should swing a heavy stick. They gave me bats about the heft Babe Ruth uses, 40 to Al ounces, and didn't do so well last year.
 This Spring, without saying any, thing to anyone I ordered half dozen sticks for myself and the only requirement. I made was that they scale under 37 ounces. A

Jimmie Foxx, the cherub-faced farmer ooy from Maryland's east ern shore, already has offered as or -c1-2n for his phenomenal hit ting this summer an eagerhess to get his bat on any pitch close to the plate. He has quit waiting for the good balls and has found he can hit those "a little bad" just as well as as far.
 But there's something else be- hind the 400 batting average and the home runs Connie Mack's poWerhouse has accumulated. Jim- my has changed the weight of his bats and the new sticks probably have more to do with his steady mauling than his eagerness to take anything within reach.

he was knocked out. A left hook
to the jaw sent Meyer to the
canvas in the first round. After
taking a shellacking in the second
round. the old champion opened
up and floored Christner twice
with solid rights. The finishing
blow was a left hook to the face.

BURKE To FILL
COLUMBUSSPOT

After much deliberation heavy
weight to represent Columbus
UniverSity's boxing team against
Springfield College at the Strand
Theater tomorrow night has been
decided upon.
Raymond (Reds) Burke, flam-
ing-haired and dead game, was the
youngster yesterday named by
Coach Dick O'Connell to fill the
unlimited spot.
Two-fisted pounding in gym
nasium workouts won Burke the
NOD over both Francis jain and
Bernie Quick. Though short of
experience, the well-proportioned
lad has created the impression
that he will improve rapidly.
For his debut tomorrow night
Burke has been routed against
a seasoned and clever opponent
in Fred Lugenbehl. Count eId
among Springfield's aces, the lat
ter likely will call upon all Of
Burke's stamina and fighting
heart.
Springfield's representation was
to leave en- route here early this
afternoon. Stopping over at Will
mington. Del, tonight, the New
Englanders should put in an ap-
pearance here early tomorrow
morning.

STRONG
CONTENDER
FOR TITLE
BY GTNO SINH


If The Washington Times Ladies
Dixie Sweepstakes title does not
go to Baltimore it will not be
because the Monumental City girls
weren't present in sufficient num-
bers or did not have real con-
tenders in the field.
Eleven Of them have already
signed for the classic test, and
several more are expected to plunk
down the entry fee when the
event gets under way at the Lucky
Strike at 2 o'clock tomorrow after
noon.
Better Than Dark Horses"
What's more, every one of them
have records that raise them sew
eral notches above the dark
horse" class. All have shown eX-
ceptional ability in special events.
While Lotta Janowitz is re-
garded as the chief threat of the
group, no less potent are Sue
Miller, Viola Raycob, Emma Rit-
ter, Helen Spencer. Mary Gallo
way, Mabel Shaw, Olive Ford,
Frances Krieg, Naomi Zimmerman
and Maude Lutz. All average
over 100.
For instance, the Galloway miss
is averaging 106 in the Regent
Ladies League, while Spencer has
a name for doing the spectacular
in special events. She won the
Evening Sun Tournament in 1880.
Spencer, Galloway, Miller and
Raycob need no introduction to
local fans, for they have been
seen in action several times here
during the past two months.
Almost certain entries from
Baltimore besides those already
mentioned are Mae Schneider
Margaret Holiday and Shirly Wig
ley.
Richmond Has Threats
Richmond will provide its
share of worry to washington
stars in the persons of Dorothy
Lawson, Polly Dozier, Helen Ran
dlett, Lois Clopton, Margaret Chal-
loner and Annie Grubbs.
If Katherine Walls, Mary
Stapleton and Dot Keels come UP
from Norfolk, as they are likely
to, it will add that much more
uncertainty to the results. All
three of these girls can spill
duckpins in huge gobs.
Annapolis, too, may have one
or two representatives. Alex
andria with Mildred Miskelly
has an ace in the hole, so has
Hyattsville with Carolyn Hiser,
Rosslyn with Helen Davis, and
possibly, Betty Dugan and Audrey

1t was one of the widest bouts
seen in Washington in many,

buck, the aggressor throughout

like a couple Of eels, when sud-

separate them as they rolled
under the ropes, when suddenly
the young Indians foot caught
him squarely on the "brisket,"
while Lewis "tootsies" upset him
and Burns dove out of the ring
head first.
Referee Burns in Fog
While the referee was sitting
on the floor outside the ring try
ing to unscramble his brains,
Roebuck, with a mighty effort,
pressed the old campaigner's
shoulder reunions to the mat for
what spectators insisted was the
required time.
However, before Burns got back
IN the ring, Lewis had gained the
upper hand, and the Cyclone,
evidently still dopey from the
tumble, unceremoniously slapped
the "Strangler'S" back in token
of victory, although Roebuck was
not down according to the con-
sensuS of opinion at the ringSide.
The bout lasted az minutes.
