ASTOR CLARKE
DUCKP|N HERO

Astor Clarke is something of a
hero for his King Pin team,
mates today after last nights cru.
cial National Capital Duckpin
League battle. Astor fell on the
naples with great eclat for a 184
opening game to give King Pin
a 651 to 634 decision over its bit
terest rivals, Colonial Ice Cream,
and it later turned out that that
particular effort saved first place
for the Eighth and E Streeters
by one game as the Ice Cream
men grabbed the final two by
wide margins. Clarke hooked up
games of 1T and 116 to his big
blast for a AIT set.
Young AL Woods also nipped
the ducks for another 400" a
401 in the Mems Federal League,
while Hough pitched in a ITO
game to head the parade in that
particular department.
Robb milled out a 405 to out
shine his mates in the Masonic
League. Other conspicuous per-
formances were Charlie Bern
hardt's 388 in the District Gov
ernment loop, Jacobs $50 in the
Merchants circuit, Mike Pirrone's
349 in the jewelers. League, and
Tom Bradford's $50 in the San
leo wheel.

H HOLLEBAUGH'S s
75 WINS GOLF

A net score of rs enabled Russ
Hollebaugh, unattached, to out
score four pro rivals in an in
formal sweepstakes over the
Manor Club course yesterday.
Hollebaugh's gross score was 79,
eight strokes over par, the pros
giving him handicap of four
strokes.
Walter Cunningham, Burning
Tree, was second with 76; Gillie
Cunningham, Burning Tree, IT.,
while AL Treder, Manor Club, and
Arthur Thorn, unattached pro,
tailed 7S's. An unusual feature
was that the five, playing in one
group, registered a birdie on
every hole of the first nine. Thus
their best ball score would have
been q.
Two local pros and two local
amateurs tuned up their shots at
Pinehurst yesterday in prepara-
ton for today's opening rounds
of the North and South Open.
AL Houghton, Kenwood, led the
quartet with 73; George Diffen-
baugh, Indian Spring, clicked off
"a; Maury Fitzgerald, Kenwood
amateur, carved a 78, while Dick
Lunn, Burning Tree amateur,
scored 80.

st. Jerome, defending Section
A Champion, tied in wins and
losses with Our Lady of Victory,
appears to have safely stored
away its laurels. It clashes with
humble st. Peter, one of the eel
larites, while the Conduit Road
crew tangles with the menacing
Holy Comforter quint which led
the league earlier in the season.
Four Battle for Third
Four teams are in the scuffle
for third place honors, with the
strong possibility that the lucki-
est may jump into second place.
st. Anthony and Holy Comforter
are tied for third place, one game
ahead of Holy Rosary and Holy
Trinity, with Charley Warren's
Nativity in seventh place, six
games behind the leaders.
Holy Name, Class B defender,
is one game in front of st. Steph-
ems, and both face loWly but
dangerous foes. Father Czyz's
Immaculate Conception team op-
poses the titleholder, and the
good padres aggregation can
scale the heights at moments
most embarrassing to leading
teams. st. Joseph, St. Stephens
last hurdle, is also liable to smite
its rival for a row of wooden
shanties.
In the meantime a hectic war
blazes between st. Anthony, St.
Peters, and st. AIMS, to see who
will finish in the third spot. St.
Peter with Ollie Pacini, Joe
Hardie, Jim Hassett, Charles
Olive, Tom Hughes and Sonny"
Coleman is figured as the proba-
BILE victor in this scramble.
CoIorfuI Lineup
The st. Peters lineup is just
about the most colorful of all four
circuits. Pacini is the No. rank
ing U. S. bowler, and seems des-
tined to retain his laurels. Hardie,
veteran Of % years bowling,
once was a member of the famed
Royals and a teammate of Pop"

NRECTORSFEAR
FOR COLLEGE
FOOTBALL
BY HARRY COSTELLO

Pessimism sits on the throne
Of intercollegiate athletics.
From all sections of the coun.
try come reports indicative OF
fears that over-capitalized inter.
collegiate athletics will come a
cropper before January l, 1924
So over-capitaliZed is lnterco1le-
giate sport that most authorities
actually are afraid to deflate.
Academic men, wise to the
ways of intercollegiate sport, nod
knowingly when the subject is
broached, as if to say:
"Wait until the football sea-
son of 1881"
Baseball, poorest of all college
sports, seems to have gone by the
boards as a factor of revenue.
Tennis and golf, never over
capitalized, are just as popular
as ever. They never bring in the
money.
The big question seems to be,
what of football, king Of
revenue?"
Spring grid practice has been
ballyhooed by the colleges this
year. It is bad sign. Ballyhoo
in an off-season is ballyhoo
wasted. 1t is indicative of worry
lest the game be forgotten.
Basketball held it's own, al
though somewhat curtailed. Box.
ing was a source of revenue, but
most colleges look upon boxing as
not up to snuff as competition
for young college men. Track, as
usual, has been and will continue
to be financial loss.
It will be happy day for inter
collegiate athletics when the
present crop of athletes retires to
the home bailwicks for summer
vacation. The public, so neces-
sary to the financial success Of
intercollegiate sport, is sick and
tired of intercollegiate ballyhoo,
particularly ballyhoo which has
football teams playing games Of
football in March.
Despite the pessimism which
prevails, football should have q
good year starting in october.
The game remains an American
game. Provided some of the COM
mercialism which has marked it is
eliminated, and provided ballyhoo
remains within the bounds of rear
son, football once again should
prove the financial support Of the
entire intercollegiate program.

GUARD DEHNERT
IS WARNING
SWatch that fellow Dutch
Dehnert of the CeItics."

OCAAACAb VA bAO NCAUACSs
These were the commanding
words of the Renaissance man
ager whose basketball team
clashes with the famous Original
New York Celtics tomorrow night
at the Washington Auditorium.
Play begins at $50 o'clock.
The big Dutchman often aban-
dons his well-known block play
to score points when the opposi.
ton least expects this maneuver.
On the other hand, the Celtics'
manager has warned his men to
keep a close eye on "Pappy"
Kicks, considered one of the
deadlieSt shots in the pro ranks.
Many regard him the greatest
performer in basketball today.
"Fats" Jenkins, another Renais.
Sance star, is called the Babe
Ruth of colored baseball. He re-
ceived that name after knocking
out q homers in one season
while playing with the New York
Black Yankees.

IN GREAT
SHAPE
BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON

BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON
That the local golf season is
Just around the corner is seen
by cutting Of greens.
Most of the local greenskeep-
ers have started to cut greens
that have gone untouched since
last fall.
Thanks to the abundance of
rain and snow the past winter,
the green's and fairways Of every
local course are in better shape
than they have been for years.
Only a couple Of weeks Of bright
sunshine and the courses will
delight the eye Of the golfer.
Tom Fisher Ill
Tom Fisher, who has tenderly
guarded the Burning Tree course,
has not been able to give his un-
divided attention to his duties on
account of a stomach disorder
which has troubled him for three
weeks. He was abed yesterday
with the ailment, but the day
previous valiantly strove to tend
his job.
Fisher is one of the hardest
working greenskeepers in this
section and is intensely devoted
to the proper upkeep of the
course. This is especially true
during the summer when he
thinks nothing of spending a full
n1gth trying to cure the diseases
that torrid weather heaps upon
the No. 3 green.
This is the only green at Burn
Ing Tree which wits under the
intense heat of summer. Lack of
air has been ascribed as respon-
sible for this condition. There
has been general talk of recon
structing this green, but no real
move has been made in that di-
rection.
Thorpe, Jr., Tests Shots
Merle Thorpe, jr., enjoying a
Today reprieve from school, test
ed his shots at Burning Tree yes
terday, but was woefully ''off
record" with his puts. The
youngSter, who swings from the
portSide, generally managed to
reach the green in two strokes,
but then seemingly forgot the
axiom Of the shortest distance
between points. He gathered a
bunch Of three-putt greens and
topped the string with four puts
on the tenth.
Young Thorpe is a pupil of
Gillie Cunningham, assistant pro
at Burning Tree. Gillie took the
Southpaw in hand when he was
firing shots all over the course,
but not toward tn epin. Imme-
diately, he was on the path of
better golf.
frankie Cunningham declares
he never saw snow disappear as
fast as the thin layer which
covered Burning Tree Sunday
morning. By afternoon, the
white mantle had vanished. In
deed, one party started out play
ing red balls, but finished up
using the customary white balls.

"Girard cigar splits dime with

Girard sales at dime were piling

Now, at a nickel, Girard is growing

Besides this excellent mound
collection the Eastern staunch

pride that the catching depart
ment is well fortified with such
talented artists as Carl Mills,

highly by practically every coach
around town.

The infield has been working
wonders, too. The combination of
Joe Mills, twin brother of Carl;
Dicky Fitzgerald, Fred Miller and
