In the first game, Central de-
feated Western as expected, 81 to
"A, while in the nightcap encoun-
ter Tech, with a new lineup on
the floor, upset RooSevelt's hopes
Of keeping in the battle for Sec
ond place honorS, by practically
walking away with 40-to-32 tri-
umph.
It was this latter contest which
gave the small gathering its sur
prise of surprises. Very few fig
ured Techs new array would stand
up against such a fighting and at
times brilliant team as under
Roosevelt's colorS.
But Coach Artie Boyd'S men did
just this little thing and enjoyed
so great success that the RooSe-
velt tosSerS were swept off their
feet during the entire first half,
Thomas, DAILY, in Action
Techs lineup had only Fred
Thomas and Reds DAILY, regulars,
in action at the start. Both held
down the guard positions of the
team. The other posts were filled
by Diversion, at center, and Bill
ings and Gillem, forwards. This
left such men as Reichardt,
Wheeler and Reed on the side
lines.
The new combination clicked,
IL ever a combination could. Dur
ing the first quarter Roosevelt
could only secure one field goal
and that came by Joe Sherman
nine minutes after the beginning
Of play. In the meantime Thomas
and Gillem sank field goals and
DAILY and the same Gillem pushed
through several fouls for a 7-to-2
lead.
The same combination, aided by
Billings who got his eye on the
rims, increased this lead to 10
to 6 at the end of the half with
Roosevelt still bewildered and won
-dering what it was all about.
Riders Get Started
Towards the end of the third
quarter the Rough Riders finally
righted themselves and began max
ing an interesting game of it.
They sank baskets and foul shots
at every turn, but as things ended,
Techs big lead proved too much
Of a handicap to overcome. No
doubt Coach Body will continue
with his new lineup during the
remaining games his team plays
in the series, particularly if it
The Washington times., 1933-01-21

performs as successfully as was
the case yesterday.
The Central-Western game was
practically over before many min
utes of the first quarter had
elapsed. With Shore and Burke
leading the way, the Mt. Pleas
anterS rolled up a 20-to-6 lead
during the first quarter, increased
this to 80 to 10 at the half, 48
to 18 by third quarter time, and
81 to "a at the end. Shore and
Burke both totaled II points, in
cluding eight baskets and one
foul toss each.

Ray Won Dreele, the only out

BY GINO SINH
"The most brilliant field Of
women bOwlers ever gathered
under one roof, and every entry
q potential winner!"
That's what George L. Iseman,
exclaimed enthusiastically as he
thumbed through the list Of en-
tries for the washington Times
Ladies Dixie Sweepstakes just be-
fore the event got underway at
the Lucky Strike at 1880 p. m.
today.
The field includes every top
notch female maple-shooter OF
the country, hailing from three
States and the District.
Regulation Equipment
All three plants, Lucky Strike,
Columbia and Rendezvous, have
been slicked up by those master
bowling alley groomers, Howard
Campbell, Lonnie Krauss and Tad
Howard, and when these boys
put an alley in shape, it's II real
shape.
So if the girls don't get 'em
they won't be able to blame it on
the alleys. What's more if any
records are broken, and there ex-
lists a suspicion that some will,
they will be o. K, for each eStab-
lishment boasts regulation equip
ment.
Washington, of course, has the
largest and most potent repreSen-
tation with Baltimore second in
both counts. Richmond, Norfolk,
and Rosslyn have strong coll-
tenders and Connecticut's five
starters must be rated highly.
Difference Of Opinion
There is a considerable differ.
ence of opinion as to the prob
able score which will win the
event, figures being quoted from
1,025 to 1,100. A majority are
inclined to place the total at
around 1,050.
Billie Butler holds the worlds
nine-game mark, 1106, rolled at
the Lucky Strike last February.
The highest nine-game total for
the Meyer Davis Sweepstakes is
1O74, rolled by Marjorie Bradt
Smith. Naomi Zimmerman, OF
Baltimore, set a national tourna-
ment record with 1852, when she
won the all-events at Norfolk.

ANXIOUS TO CORRECT
MISUNDERSTANDING
GirGrd Cigar is Not Ten Cents.
Price Reduced to Fiue

The makers of Girard cigar want
it definitely known that this ten
cent smoke is now only a nickel.
Some smokers can't get that through
their heads. But here it is in black
and-white: Girard cigar, FIVE cents.
1t seems unbelievable, that's sure.
But you men who smoked Girard at
a dime made the five-cent price pos
sible. Sales of Girard were so high
and tobacco-costs so low that the
price could be cut in half, without
changing the enjoyment a bit. AS
a result. Girard is now selling faster
than ever-selling faster than any
other cigar in America!
AS always, Girard is mild. So
mild. that it never gets on your
nerves" You can light one after
the other and never feel rocky or
iittery.
Tobaccos from three countries
make up the Girard blend. A triple
blend for a nickel. Men. Fans say
it gives more pleasure than they
ever got from any other cigar. Try
enc today.

Of the campaign, the Upton lads
having been defeated by George
town Prep and Georgetown Frosh
early this month. For National
Training School. it will be that
teams second start, and the
youngsters will be out to make
it their second straight victory
they having defeated Alexandra
High only last Thursday.
Gonzaga Prep won its first con-
test Of the year when Hyattsville
High was defeated last night, q

much improved brand of play
over previous appearances, and
this fact found every man fig
uring in the scoring.
Emerson Scores
Emerson defeated st. Johns,
IS to 80, in a hot fought contest
at st. Johns. Emerson's early
lead stood it in good stead as
the JohnnieS rallied near the end
Of play and nearly won out.
Metzler, with 10 points, led the
winners, while Mccullough, with

HURLER MAY
GRAB. JOB,
IS VIEW
BY GARRETT WATERS

Dy OkAN16E Il WA4E Ems
He may or may not make the
grade. But he's a fine prospect,
this Luther (BuD Thomas guy,
rookie pitcher, who joined the
list Of Griff contract signers yes
terday by sending his contract to
Prexy Clark Griffith.
For q ycungster with only q
years professional experience be-
hind him, Thomas case is truly
one for the mythical Frank Mer-
Tiwell to contest.
First Of all, Luther was just
another sandlotter when taken
to Biloxi by the. Griffmen last
spring. He received this so-called
break after being picked from q
host Of other Sandlot hurlers dur
ing q trial session at Griffith
Stadium one hot summer day in
1881.
Shortly before being taken
south with the Griffs, he was
made the property Of the Chatta-
nooga Club, Of the Southern AS
sociation, which club allowed him
to be secuted at Biloxi instead Of
at Selma (Ala.), Chattanooga'S
spring training quarters.
Worked Hard
Thomas, realizing that he had
little chance to make the big
leagues last year, began to work
for q minor league chance. He
was the most earnest man in
camp. He ran the usual laps
around the spacious Biloxi out
field with the rest Of the players,
pitched to batters when given
the opportunity, listened to Prexy
Grtff, Walter Johnson, Patsy
Charity and Nick Altrock, and
tried in every way to show them
he could pitch with a little ex-
pert direction.
Late in April after the opening
Of the major league season, Chat
tanooga, on Griff's suggestion,
sent Thomas to Youngstown, Of
the Central League. At this site,
1t was the idea that the lad
would get the experience he
needed to become better acli.
mated to professional baseball
surroundings.
Thomas went to work for his
new team quite in the same
fashion that he toiled at the
Biloxi training camp. Before
many months passed, he became
one Of the best pitchers in the
Central League. At the finish
his record read 10 victories
against only Z losses.
Taken West
The Griffs recalled him late in
August and took him on their
final trip West. In two games
he was sent to the mound as q
relief pitches. On both occasions
he handled himself like q veteran,
was calm and kept himself ahead
of the batter. His work in the
two games Showed four innings
hurled, two hits, one walk and no
runs.
Thomas, barely over the 20-year
mark, will be taken to Biloxi again
this spring. Having gained about
IL more pounds in weight during
the winter, which makes his
poundage around the 185 total.
the youngSter is expected to be
In a much better position to
"make the grade" than in 1882.
He may or may not be ad-
vanced enough to grab one Of the
vacant posts on the Griffs' pitch
ing staff. But he's got a great
chance. At the least his training
camp work will be interesting to
