With a broad grin on his face the
young Congressional pro said: Il
don't know why, but all through that
match felt as nervous as kid who
never had played in tournament be-
fore. 1t was new experience for
me. You know I've played in few
matches with a few people around
and I never felt that way before.
Wonder if 1 am getting ready to go

None of the three principals in that
match played golf anywhere near
their capabilities. Vinson won with
card of 10. against 81 for Mccarthy.

Claude Rippy, tall North Carolina

morrow and with a low drawl will
accept the chief prize in the Rock

golfer playing the public courses in

who hadn't played golf for week,
scored II, to 70 for Bowers. With the
match all square on the seventeenth,
Bowers hit his tee shot over the green

won by that margin when the final

THE heavy mists and rains Of

o,d GaIde bod haeo too drv for

land game hunters. The woods
and fields had been too dry for
the dogs to pick up the scent Of game,
but some excellent shooting and near
bag limits were obtained by the nim-
rods in spite of this condition. Quail,
rabbits, deer and a black bear were
among the game brought back by
local hunters.
Last week motored down to see my
old friend. Capt NJ. NJ. Barnard. su-
perintendent of penal institutions of

majestically around in their large cage.
and so tame they would eat from
your hand. These birds were reared
by Capt. Barnard; they are his pets,
but each year he liberates a certain
number Of them for the benefit Of
the shooters. Capt. Barnard told me
there were plenty of quail down his
way and that two wild turkeys already
had been brought down close to the
reservation.

HartWig Is Best Guard.

r BELIEVE the best guard in the
East is Hartwig of Pittsburgh. He
has been a standout for two years
and has been the key man in one OF
the finest lines in the country.
Moran of Holy Cross has been con-
sistently good all season. He showed
his best foot ball in his teams crucial
games against Colgate and Temple.
He would make a fine running mate
for Hartwig Hartwig and Ormlston
give Pittsburgh the best pair of guards
on any team in the East. OrmiSton
is as good a guard as either OF the
men chosen on the al-Eastern team.
The Colgate pair, Fortman and
Bausch, and the Syracuse guards,
Jontos and Perrault, have had much
to do with the success of those two
lines. Rado of Duquesne, Gundlach
of Harvard and Curtin of Yale are
to be commended.
Centers do not seem as outstanding
as in 1888 The best Eastern center. I
believe. Is Stevens of Temple This
boy was converted from a fullback into
q center. He has developed into a
good passer and blocks we'll on the
line. His fullback experience has
made him an especially fine defensive
center. Shotwell, the Pittsburgh CEN
ter, is very good. Twitchell OF Rutgers.
Singer of Syracuse, Akerstrom of Col
gate and Kalbaugh of Princeton have
all been better than average centers.
While there may be shortage of
outstanding lnemen, there seems to be
a greater crop Of fine backs in the
East than usual. The all-Eastern
backfeld, consisting of Berries, Buck
Ter. Shepherd and Weinstock, contains
all the elements necessary to first
class aggregation. There would be fine
generalship, with at least two men
able to give the signals. They are
good runners, passers, blockers and
kickers, with fine defensive skill.
Barabas Of Columbia certainly would
be a member of this backfeld except
for the fact that he has been severely
handicapped by injury.

Saturday. the chief task of Tom Ham
ilton, Navy head coach, and his staff
will be to keep the Navy players from
believing that, because they won from

A very different view Is held by
the Navy mentors, who believe that

that they will have to put all they
have in the game and play from start
to finish in that spirit.
From early in the season the Navy
scouts have brought back that the
Cadets were not to be taken more
lightly than usual this season; that
they had an even more powerful line

Reasons for Eastern Choice.

THE West clamored to see Colgate
play the New Year day game
of 1888, but Southern California
selected Pittsburgh and promptly de-
feated the Panthers, 35 to 0, in the
most one-sided game of the 18-year-
old series.
And only last year Nebraska's
Cornhuskers were favored But Co.
lumbia was selected and the acclaim
was loud and long when the abused
Lions mired the Western representa-
tive in the Rose Bowl mud, 7 to 0.
There were reasons enough why one
of the three Eastern teams might be
picked, should the 10 coast confer
ence schools vote Stanford in today
Coach Tiny Thcrnhill of the Indians
and Jock Sutherland of Pitt played
side by side in the line for the

California, Virginia, Texas Chosen as Sites for
 Three Bases

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-A cen- tralized Army air force of approxi- mately 900 fighting machines, avail able almost instantly as unit of attack or defense, was organized here yesterday by the War Depart ment of the Government.
 The force, establishment of which was termed by Secretary Ira Dern as the most important revolution ary step toward modernization" of the nations combat units since the World War, will be known as the General Headquarters Air Force.
 Its commander will be Lt Col. Frank M Andrews. The fighting planes will be placed under the Chief of Staff of the Army and will be subject to his orders.
 One result, which follows the establishment of the CHG Force by the Army will be to silence some of the demands for separ- ate air force service.
 In order to obtain the greatest mobility the CHG Force will be grouped into three sub commands or wings.
 The first wing will be based at Hamilton Field, California, the second one at Langley Field. vir- ginia; and the third will have Q temporary base at Fort Crockett, Texas
 The CHG plan will be given a years test, after which it may be revised to eliminate any weakness es which have developed.
