NAVY'S BOXERS
WIN 6 Of I
MEETS

ANNAPOLIS, March 12.-The
Navy completed it's fifteenth sea-
son of boxing Saturday by win
ming from Syracuse, champions of
the intercollegiate Boxing Asso-
citation, by four and a half bouts
to three and a half. It's record
for the season is six victories and
one defeat, losing only to Virginia,
champions of the Southern con-
ference.
During it's participation in in
terCollegiate boxing, the Navy has
lost but four bouts, two to Vir-
ginia and two to Syracuse. An
other team which fell before the
Navy mitmen this season was
West Virginia, champions of the
Eastern conference, and it also
defeated Western Maryland, North
Carolina, Pennsylvania State and
washington and Lee.
Three Regulars Lost
The team will lose three regu-
lars by graduation-Capt. Bruce
McNaughton, 155 pounds; Chet
Smith, lis pounds, and Kent Nau-
man, who fought at 145 and 1876
pounds. Eddie Mulquin, who
fought some bouts at 125 pounds,
will also graduate.
Prospects for next year are good.
The squad retains Jimmy Gray,
165-pounder; George Lambert, ITS
pounds, and Slade Cutter, un-
limited weight class. Gray and
Cutter were not defeated during
the year. Jack Bitch, who fought
several times at 135 pounds, and
Bill Davenport, who fought at 145
and l55 pounds, will also be back.
Gray Is Sensation
Jimmy Gray, whose home is
in Jessups, Nd, was the find of
the season. He fought with only
fair success as a heavyweight on
the plebe team last season, but
was able to make the 165 pound
class this season, his first on the
varsity.
He fought in but three matches,
winning in his first against West
Virginia and drawing with his
Washington and Lee opponent. He
showed great form against Syra-
cuse, knocking out Tony BalSsh,
intercollegiate champion at the
weight, in the first round.

later.
He led the league in averages
with 1913 in 1908, and was always
near the top. The Bureau and
Navy Yard teams took turns at
winning the pennant, and the
battles between. these two aggre-
cations became one of the fea.
TUE attractions of each season.
Joe was also a member of the
Acme team in the District Ten
pin League which rolled on a
circuit and seldom finished out
of the first 10 in averages.
His big year was 1902, when
he paired with Charles E. Lord
and together they led a strong
field home in the District Ten
pin Doubles League. while Joe
grabbed high average honors
with a pace over the 200 mark.
They topped the season by fin
ishing second in the A. B. c.
doubles.
In the same year Joe won the
unofficial District singles cham
pionShip when he defeated Park
Hudson, Of Georgetown, in a
memorable finals match of an
elimination tournament in which
representatives of every section
Of the city rolled.
According to the late Len Col
Inns, compiler Of several local
sport record books, Joe hung up
the highest tenpin "three-game
set, 719, ever rolled in the Dis
trict.

MIDLAND IN
TOURNEY

KANSAS CITY, March 12.-The
Sholl Cafe basketball team, of
Washington, D. c., faces its second
test in the national A. A. U.
championships with confidence in
stilled by its 3O-to-25 win over the
Tulsa (Okla) Business College.
Midland College, of Fremont, Neb.,
which drew a first-round bye, will
be the next opponent.
While the Capitolians knew
they had a strong club they didn't
know how their style of play
would compare with the brand
dished out in the west, which goes
in for the court game in big way.
The Tulsans, however, became the
eighty-fourth consecutive team to
bow before the Shollmen.
Playing without their speediest
performer, Bobby Lucas, who has
a sprained ankle, the Washington
boys got off to slow start be-
cause of a ragged passing game.
The score was knotted to at
the end of the quarter.
Then Sherman and Kiesel got
started and the Washingtonians
were in front IS to Z as the half
ended. They went into the fourth
period with a 24-to-18 lead. The
Tulsa outfit, too, had a fine rec
ord, having won 43 Of its 46
games. After the first quarter
Sholl's put on such a great exhi-
bition of passing and defensive
play that the Tulsans had to
make nearly all their tries for the
basket from the center of the
court.

Several months ago it appeared
that only Chevy Chase of the
District circuit would foster an
invitation tourney. Since, a few
other clE@.-s have announced tour
nament plans.
1t now appears that Beaver Dam
Indian Spring and Belle Haven
will put on tournaments with the
possibility of Washington and Co.
lumbia restoring Journeys.
Also, the Country Club Of Vir-
ginia has announced April dates
for an invitation tournament. It
is expected quite a number of
local golfers will go to Richmond
for this tourney.
Tournament play here last year
was sparse but 1884, according to
the tentative schedule. promises
a return to the old order. Much
of this recovery, however. depends
upon the percentage of restora-

One Of the last to give up the
big pin game and Scorning duck
pins, he stayed away from bowl
ang alleys for nearly Is years,
until he was recruited for st.
Peters team in the Holy Name
Society League three seasons ago.
Since then he has been a regular
and is carrying excellent averages
for . man Of his age.
Though Joe does not exactly
belong among the duckpinners,
having gained his fame battling
the tall kegs, his character makes
him a supreme figure in bowling
circles, regardless of what type
pins are involved.
About the time Admiral Dewey
steamed into New York harbor for
his memorable reception, Hardie
was selected as the most popular
bowler in the Capital in a CITY,
wide newspaper contest, and his
rivals applauded the choice whole
heartedly.
None had higher ideals concern
ing the bowling game, generally,
end none stuck more SteadfaStly
10 those ideals.
Anger Aroused
Once when some mercenary
team captain approached him to
bowl Cat the fellows expense)
on an all-star team which would
have run away with the pen
nant in a small league, Joe not
only refused but roundly up
braided the fellow for his un-
SportSmanlike tactics. It was the
first time anyone had seen Joe
lose his temper.
Due to q game" leg, Hardie
had to use a straight ball in
stead Of the sweeping curve pop
ular among tenpin bowlers. It
proved an effective weapon.
Harry Krauss, deemed the peer
Of all tenpin bowlers, says that
Hardie was one of the greatest
Of all. times and a tough oppo-
pent in the pincheS.
"He never sought big scores
or records, but whenever a big
game was needed, Joe would
produce it. He never stopped
trying. But it was JOe's spirit
and character which made him
invaluable to a team. 1t was
JOefS bowling and spirit that
kept the Bureau team on top
In the Departmental Tenpin
League. He was great bowler,
but more, he set a splendid
