DOUGH WELL SPLIT
IN DISTRICT LEAGUE
New System Rewards Team
for Each Game Won-ln-
dividuaI Coin SCant.
BY r. ID. THOMAS.

"HERE is something new
after all. The sucker gets
an even break from the
star duckpin shooter this
season. The money-clutching
lads of the District League are
going to see to it that the dough
this time is distributed all down
the line, with the last-place team
collecting not a great deal less,
perhaps, than the pennant win
ner.
The big chunks of money that used
to 60 to the three or four leading
teams are no more. If they collect eH-
tensively this season it will be in small
lots, for, under a new arrangement,
each team will be rewarded exactly
in proportion to its victories. For each
game won a team will be paid $l.5O.
This system, now being tried for the
first time, it is thought in the history
OF the game, will use up so much coin
that only few dollars apiece Will be
available for individual prize winners.
To be exact s60750 will be turned over
to teams and S122.50 to individuals.
Stand to Win Little.
"HE new arrangement was effected
by the leagues officials. Had it
been put to a popular vote there
is some doubt it would have carried.
The usual District Lacquer is frank to
admit the bucks" count heavily in
summing up his interest in the game
E,4 For Vi
with petty cash the reward is not at
all engaging.
If the pennant race is as close
as District League contests usu-
ally are, with few games separat-
ing the first team from the last,
each bowler will get back little
more or a little less prize money
than he put in.
But the true sporting spirit has not
faded completely from the District
League. Even without monetary re-
ward attached, the individual cham
pionship of this organization would be
perhaps the most coveted possession OF
any Washington duckpinner. TO WIN
the District League championship ordl-
narily is tantamount to stamping one
as the years best bowler.
Although the Washington City Duck
pin Associations ranking committee
virtually ignored him, officially. Earl
McPhilomy, the District League champ
of last season, was accounted by many
committee members the real ace of the
year.
McPhilomy hung up a record for
average that may stick a while. But
his activity was confined almost en-
tirely to the District League while the
city's other stars were taking their
chances in all sorts of competition. with
one of them particularly distinguishing
himself, namely, Ollie Pacini. Ollie
not only was ranked No. l for Wash
ington but for the Nation.

Spread of Disorder
hCuba Intensifes
Alarm, in Capital
BY CONSTANTINE BROWN.

The landing of sailors and Marines
in Cuba appeared more probable today
than at any other time since the over
throw of the Cespedes administration.
News from Cuba was distinctly bad.
The whole country seems to be break
ing up in small factions. favoring this
or the other local reader Nobody in
the provinces of Cuba seems to pay any
attention TO the efforts of DR.. Grau San
Martin to establish himself as de facto
ruler Nobody outside Havana seems to
worry whether the old constitution is
abolished, or whether the Platt amend
ment is Cancelled
The central authority is no longer
recognized and the army and populace
follow their favorite leaders, who are
busy setting up local governments in
dependent of Havana.
Army Enthusiasm Wanes.
The army. even in Havana begins to
be less enthusiastic about the newly
set up dictatorship. Many a private
and corporal who saw chances of hav-
ing bars on his shoulderStraps is sadly
disappointed because he was not made
an officer The Batista Selection Board
is accused of favoritism it seems that
the only solution for Batista to satisfy
all his followers would have been to
promote the entire Havana garrison to
commissions.
But leaving aside the somewhat
humorous side of the situation it ap-
pears today that II will be difficult to
control the various regional groups
which are rapidly being formed. Some
of them have irresponsible leaders who
strongly favor the idea of Matchmaking
everything that belongs to somebody
else; and since Americans and other
foreigners own good deal of property.
it seems that they are going to be the
chief sufferers But the real danger
lies in the fact that in the turmoil
which exists today on the island. it is
possible that some Americans and other
foreigners should be killed. And that
the part of the commander of the
American forces in Cuban waters
The possibility of the officers residing
at the National Hotel and political
leaders, such as Gen. Menocal, forming
some sort of government concentration
to include all political factions seems to
have disappeared altogether. While in
Havana certain efforts are being made
in that direction. in the provinces the
slogan seems to be Everybody for him.

Ambassador Welles is still making
strenuous efforts to bring about some
kind of a reconciliation, but it is feared
that his efforts will prove futile. The
process of political disintegration,
brought about by the junta coup d'etat,
is too far advanced There is nothing
in sight now but complete chaos, with
an American Intervention looming
strongly in the background.
Much as the administration is OPP

the emergency legislation as "a fraud
