THE boys are at it again. With
the races finished near WASH
ington, that indefatigable golf
ing pair of Washington Golf
and Country Club is putting on the
prelude to another Winter battle SIM
liar to the struggle which had half

They are v. Calvert Dickey, the big

Gruver, his arch rival.
Through good golf or bad, whether
they score 75s or COS, they cling to-
gether and scrap like a pair of TOM
cats on the back fence when a big
moon is peeping out of the East.
Dickey has been busy for the past
month. So has Gruver. Their inter-
ests conceded and their conversation
was largely of "a fast track" dis
lance race" a front runner" or some
thing else pertaining to the nags
which run in Maryland during the

BOTH UNDEFEATED
IN BATTLES HERE
QuarIes Will Make Debut
at Hunt Club Tonight,
Facing GaIiano.
BY FRANCIS E. STAN.

PAIR of tough young welter-
n weights, admittedly peddling
~ their fistic wares in Washing
ton in the hope of forcing
Foggy Bottoms Phil Furr into a
scrap, will square off tonight at the
Riding and Hunt Club in the Cap
itars only ring show of the week.
Both Morrie Sherman of Detroit
and frankie Hughes of Cleveland will
carry unsplotched local records into
their 10-roud battle, but both boys
will have to show more than they did
in their previous showings If they
mean to create a demand for a crack
at FUR.
Hughes, after hurdling a couple OF
opponents in unimpreSSlve fashion,
took a terrific drubbing from Mike
Frattini a few weeks ago at the
Washington Auditorium. But, bat
tered and groggy, and receiving credit
for winning only two rounds on most
newspaper score-SheetS, frankie was
awarded the decision, which still Is
talked about by Washington fans.
Sherman, in his lone local start,
handily outpointed Tony Dominguez,
but looked far from impressive In
doing the trick.

Quarels May Steal Show.

HANDLERS of both battlers, as
III well as Matchmaker Goldie
Ahearn, claim Sherman and
Hughes are far better than rated
here, despite their mediocre showings,
and predict tonight's scrap Will
prove it.
If they fail to fulfill even the high
est expectations, then top honors for
the evening are likely to be grabbed
by young Norment Quarles, former
North Carolina University boxing star
and former Southern Conference
welterweight champion. A recent
convert to professional flsticuffing,
Quarles will debut in the eight-round
semi-fnal against Peter Gallano OF
Baltimore.
Probably no Dixie battler in the
lighter ranks has been ballyhooed so
much as the blond Tarheel slugger,
only man ever to defeat Washington
ace amateur, Bobby Goldstein. Quarles
accomplished the feat, once while
Bobby was boxing for the University
of Virginia, and again in an amateur
tilt in Richmond. Goldstein. in
Cidentally, is the brother OF Ahearn.
Galiano, unless he has slipped a
great deal in the last few months. is
no set-up for Quarles. A hard puncher
himself, Pete always has proved pop
ular here in the past.

to tee shots and puts and the battle
is on again, this time for blood
Last year they had challenge series
of so matches and at the end Dickey
wrote a letter publicly proclaiming
Gruver to be the better man.
1t hurt, although Dickey won't admit
it, and now Dickey's game has so i'm
proved that he insists the decision of
last Winter was all a big mistake and
that he is going to town with Gruver's
scalp hung at his belt.
1t may be, too, for the Dickey man
has been splashing his way around the
Washington course below 80 almost
every time he has started recently.
But their contests really are worth
watching. As evenly matched a pair
as you could find in days travel.
If Dickey shoots up to IS, Gruver
does it too. If Gruver drops down to
rs, Dickey does it too. Day after day
they roll in to the last hole all even.
Fully half their matches end that way.
And some of the shots they make
against each other are not in the
book. So the battle is joined again
and it looks another big Winter for the
boys Of Washington Club.

The story concerns the multi
tudinous events on a stormy eve

scene enters a strange vagabond,
who philosophers. satirizes the
game of life as exhibited by the
other occupants of the inn. The
governor, his daughter, mystic
rious woman, the inn-keeper, his
son, and numerous others play

But underneath it all runs a

The Roadside theateriteS, that
group of young thespians who
have made history in Washington
this summer, are winding up their
first season with a presentation Of
George M. Cohan's The Tavern. "
This, their most ambitious eff
fort, for it demands more real
acting than any previous offering,
opened a weeks engagement last
night at the Halpine Maryland
ShoW-houSe.
It was in every way triumph
for them. A triumph because it
presented some of the best char
acterization seen in many, many
long years on any local amateur
stage, and, in some instances ap-
preached true professional calibre.
A triumph because they made the
audience appreciate the delicious
satire of Cohan'S play. A triumph
because it's presentation was both
novel and satisfying.
First honorS of the evening
must, of course, go to Dennis E.
Connell. This veteran mime
played the role originally por-
trayed by George NJ, was on the
stage for practically the entire
time. And Mr.. Connell gave the
role a verve, a sweep and an I'M
derstanding that carried the en-
