Barry, who has failed them on
innumerable asions, came
through with a clean-cut 10.
round victory over Salvatore Rug.
girello, italian, at Portner's Arena
in Alexandria, Va, last night be-
fore 1,500 fans.
For a time, it appeared there
would be no bout, as Mushky
Jackson, Of New York, demanded
$32 for Barry's training expen-
ses. The Portner promoters fin
nally kicked in with the sum
and the match proceeded.
Except for three hard blows
delivered by the Italian in the
first, fifth and final rounds,
Barry was master Of his foe at
all times and was never endan-
gered. The "Red Had" thrice
was on the verge of knocking out
Ruggirello, but the italian all
ways managed to escape this fate.
Barry. the fastest heavyweight
in the ring today, showed i'm
provement in his punching.
Jackie Aldair outpointed Henry
Irving in a six-rounder. Walter
Kirkwood decisioned Big Boy
Smith in a Six-rounder. Baby
Charles drew the nod over Joe
Raspi in a four-rounder and
Roma LaBoma flattened Bill
Howell after one minute and
five seconds of the first heat.

LOCAL TEAMS
FINE PLAY
|SHELP
BY SID KATZNELL

Soccer football, or just plain soc
Ger to you Washingtonians, is
gradually forging ahead in Amer
lea. especially in the great me-
tropolitan areas Of New York
Baltimore and Washington.
Being city of many nation
alties, New York city has the best
teams and has the largest at
tendances witnessing it's soccer
battles. Soccer football is ma
tional sport. Practically every
country in the world have men
boys, girls and women participat-
ing IN this recreational sport.
Good Conditioner
Many soccer officials claim their
game is one Of the best condition
ing games known. They say you
must be in splendid physical shape
In order to stand the one hour
grind Of running, block, kicking
and knocks. One well known ex-
pert said:
"SOccer is a great builder Of
character besides being q sport
for real men, women, boys and
girls"
Baltimore is so interested in
soccer the morning papers carry
a full page on Monday mornings.
Approximately so games are play
ed every Sunday, the majority
being league games.
Washington is well represented
In soccer. More than 40 teams,
including sandlot, elementary
schools, junior high schools and
Fairgrounds, are in operation.
For the benefit for those who
don't know much about this Soc
Ger game, we will endeavor to
give you rough idea how it is
played and it's rules.
Eleven players comprise team.
Kicking and Heading
The ball can only be advanced
by kicking and heading. Head
ing means butting ball with your
head. The ball positively must
not be touched by hands, elbows
or arms except the goal keeper,
who is allowed to use any fair
means to keep the ball away from
the goal.
The idea Of the game, of course,
Is to get the ball into the net.
There happens to be two styles
Of play, the Germans use a short
passing game to place the ball
behind defensive backs into scor-
ing positions. The other way
calls for speed and kicking long
passes and to outdistance the de-
fensive backs.
: A player OF the team in pos
session of the ball must stay in
front of the opposing team full
back or he'll be declared offside.
A free kick is given to opposition
in such a case.

history, guilty of a play time will

For Bridwell hit the first ball.
The man at the mike" told you
the rest. Merkle, seeing Nc
Cormick score, didn't run down to
second base. 1t was an old base
ball custom. Nobody had ever
been penalized for that oversight
before.
Trigger Minded Johnny
But this day he was playing
with Johnny Evers, the keenest
brain, the quickest thinker, base
ball has ever produced.
What Evers intended, Of course,
when he called for the ball from
Holman was to touch second base.
and thus force out Merkle. NC
Ginnity's quick wit-he Of all the
Giants sensed the play Evers had
in mind-spoiled that strategy,
but provided the grounds for the
protest Charley Murphy, the Chi
cago owner, filed that night.
The protest was based on two
counts: /. That Merkle was out
for running out of the base lines.
2. That Merkle was out because
McGinnity, when he took the ball
away from Pfeister, interfered
with the play.
The league officials later agreed
with that argument. The Giant
victory was stricken from the
record-and the pennant play-off
game was the result.

Walter D. Toy, J.r., who is
studying architecture at a col
lege in Dantzig, the Baltic sea-
port, has witnessed recently
some of the violent demonstra-
tions against Poland. In fact,
he has been in the very midst of
them, seeing close at hand the
excited gestures and hearing the
furious words of the German in
habitantS who denOunce the pro-
vision of the Versailles treaty
that put the city under the rule
of the Poles.
Dantzig is at the north end of
the so-called Polish corridor, a

of the racial animosities that
boil there. Most of the popula-
ton of Dantzig is German, while
elsewhere in the corridor the
Poles predominant.
In letters to his parents here
Mr.. Toy tells of the nationalis-
tic spirit among the Germans
and of the widespread conviction
that serious trouble is brewing.
He wonders if an outbreak will
occur before he leaves for home.
Meanwhile he is interested in
many things besides the Ger
man-Polish dispute.
One of his pastimes is horse
back-riding. He had consider
able experience as a horseman in
this country, but he says the
equestrian skill of some of the
Germans with whom he is asso-
ciated has made him feel like a
tyro. Sometimes he goes out
riding along the seashore.
There is a lot of amber under
my horses hoofs," he writes. 1T

Der, but you misn't' pick any of

Once he went for stroll out
on the frozen Baltic sea. The
ice was thick and did not crack,
but it swayed: he could feel the
pulsing of the waves underneath.
"A pleasant discovery he has
made is that an American stu
dent in DantZig can get along on
very little money. He has excel
lent quarters, and is served with
an appetizing breakfast every
morning, for $40 a month, and
other living costs, as well as
pleasures, are likewise moderate.

against the raiding of the woods
for dogwood blossoms, and so
are the other members of the
committee. We selected the
name, Dogwood Festival, be-
cause of the season. The last
thing we wish is any destruc-
ton of dogwood. We want the
blossoms as decorations only
where nature has placed them
in the campus and the village
and the nearby woods-nOt as
floral pieces around a stage or
an arena.
There will be ample oppor-
tunity for the people who attend
the festival to see the dogwood
where it is growing, and, if they
have a proper appreciation of
the beautiful, that is where they
will get the most enjoyment
from this superb wild-hower.
Like many another lover of ma
ture, | have often been outraged
by the savagery of travellers in
tearing off the branches of the
dogwood ard other trees along
our roadsides.
What We want to do is to
have a joyful springtime party,
with singing, dancing, and
games, rejecting North Carolina
life on its fun-loving side. If
there is enough money, we are
going to bring here, from their
reservation in the mountains,
band of Cherokee Indians to en-
tertain the crowd with archery.

tests. and their distinctive tribal
game, which is something on the
order of football.

Projectors of Festival to Let Doewood
Blossoms Stay Where Nature Put Them

To the Editor:
The announcement of the pro-
posed Dogwood Festival in April
arouses, in one who loves the
woods and who remembers
somewhat similar occasions in
the community, a sense of fear
that our festive" fellow-citizens
may be heading into something
which is liable to develop certain
features very different from
what they intend.
The names of the promoters
guarantee purpose to provide
pleasure, some social activity,
and perhaps a bit of real cultural
nourishment as we'll. Further
more, an optimism that extends
to a belief that they may be able
to uncover fifty of us with $40
not otherwise engaged should
give assurance of success.
However, should the matter of
decorations enter into the plans
for any of the activities, and it
very probably will, the obvious
appropriateness of using dog
wood blossoms would be just too
plain for the average human to

When he travels he gets the
