It isn't quite certain whose

more than likely a free agent
and there isn't an entirely re-
mote possibility he may turn
up with the Brooklyn Dodgers
in case no further overtures are
made to Joe Judge.

Should any Of the three Dixie
leaders win either of these events,
or place among the first five in
both tests, and retain their pres
ent high standards in leagues, it
will be difficult to deny them the
highest laurelS in the country.
CapitaliteS Shocked
The biggest shock to local fol-
lowers of the game, used to the
idea that Washington harbors the
cream Of female duckpin talent,
was that only two Capital girls
finished in the money, Gull and
Catherine Quigley. However, Irene
Scott, Margaret Leaman, Lucille
Young and Marie Whalen saved a
bit of Washington's prestige by
placing among the first 10. Scott,
Leaman and Young, by the
way, are members of Rendezvous,
Ladies' District League, defending
champions. .-
The most pleasing surprise was
the generous turnout from Rich
mond. Ten were entered from the
Virginia capital and two finished
in the money. Baltimore had II
entries, with three gaining awards,
Connecticut and Norfolk. four
each, two were from RoSslyn and
II from Washington, 48 in all.

Pulling for Judge

Speaking of that Brooklyn
first base job. we see that Babe
Ruth has given Joe Judge a
great boost for the spot. Here's
what Babe said:
II hope the Dodgers grab Joe
Judge for that opening at first,
and, If they do, believe me, he'll
shellack that right field fence
for them"
And, by the way, there's a
pretty strong possibility Wash
ington'S other lame duck, Wal
ter Johnson, will land on his
feet before the season opens.
Owner Clark Griffith is pulling
every wire at his command to
get Walter placed.
One likely spot for Walter is
to become the head of the Jer-
Sey City ball club. Not the man.
Ager of the team, as we under
stand the negotiations. but the
clubs head man, chief executive
and all that sort of thing.
The Skeeters right now are in
a state of litigation and efforts
are being made by the Interna-
tional League Club owners to
salvage the team and let the
1egue conduct its affairs. If this
can be done, Walter is the man
they hope to give the job of run

Mrs. Katherine Wall Wick, of

Kenwood Gets
Fair Golf
Tourney
BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON

The women's District amateur
golf championship will be played
at the Kenwood Country Club
this spring, it has been reliably
reported. ~. .s
The committee to select a
course has definitely chosen Ken
wood, though Army-Navy and
Beaver Dam were given consid-
Grafton. It is more than likely
that the championship will go to
both of these clubs in 1884 and
1895.
Kenwoods exacting course is
expected to prove a worthy test
for the feminine golfers Of the
District as the layout has been
revamped several times in the
past few years.
Dates Unsettled
The dates for the championship
will not be agreed upon until
after the men golfers determine
dates for their events at their
annual meeting early in March.
In about two years the Indian
Spring course will be much more
difficult to score on. Now an
open course, almost permitting a
clear shot to any green if the
golfer strays off line, Dick Wat
son, the greenskeeper, has been
planting an average Of from Is
to 100 trees a week.
These trees will line the fair
ways and, when attaining their
full growth, will serve as a haz-
ard that the golfer must over
come If he fails to hit 'em
straight.
Deadly With NibIick
They say out at Indian Spring
that Tom Moore is right handy
with the niblic4-. Not very long
with any club, Moore can be
counted upon to put his third
shot so dead to the pin. that he
can get down in a single putt,
thus nullifying the margin Of
opponents who reach the carpet
in two strokes but require two
puts.
An example Of Moore's accur-
acy with the niblick was demon
strated the other day when he
recorded IL one-putt greens, fin
ishing with Is. In all he needed
but "a puts for 18 holes and
never experienced three-putt
