REAL ESTATE SALES
INCREASE SHARPLY
Colonial Village, Inc, Head Says
Last Months Equaled Pre-
slump Period.

Sales and development during the
past nine months that have equalled
in volume any similar period prior to
the depression, were reported today
by Edison w. Briggs, president Of the
Colonial Village, Inc.
This accelerated activity in Colonial
Village and Rock Greek Park Estates
was attributed by Briggs to the slight
improvement in general business con-
ditions, easing of first trust money
and the concentration of recovery ac-
tivitieS in Washington.
Included in the activity was the
sale of approximately 1000 front feet
for home sites, the completion Of six
authentic Colonial dwellings for the
owners, and three others soon to be
started. AS a result of this it was
first necessary to pave Plymouth street
from the Common" several hundred
feet to Plymouth circle. 1t then be-
came necessary to pave Parkside lane
from the circle to Parkside drive.
Continued activity necessitated the
awarding of contract several days
ago for paving 500 feet on Parkside
drive and a distance of 900 feet on
Parkside lane and Yorktown road.
The Colonial Village fronting on
the northern end of Beach drive, con-
tains 80 acres surrounded by Rock
Greek Park.

HOUSING SHORTAGE
CAUSED BY DULLNESS
Builders and Developers Are
Looking for Steadier Federal
Turn to Boost Confidence.
BY JAMES Y. NEWTON.

Washington real estate men are
anticipating construction boom be-
fore many months such as the city
has not witnessed In the last decade,
which will pull the tagging building
business from a depression that has
all but paralyzed it in recent years.
With this regarded as some almost as
certainty. nearly all Capital builders
and land developers are "set" so that
they can ride the bandwagon when
1t arrives. Land has been acquired
in large quantities by most Of the
companies. They are looking for a
steadier turn in Government activi-
ties, which 1t is believed will bring
the boost in public confidence neces-
sary to create more interest among
the people in real state for homes
and investment.
Several things have contributed re-
Gently to the belief in a building
boom for the near future. The chief
is that there have been comparative
ly few new homes and virtually no
apartment buildings erected here in
nearly four years. During this time
the normal population Of the city
has increased greatly, while in the
past Is months an estimated num-
Der of $4,000 people have arrived
because of employment in emergency
Government bureaus. AS a conse-
quence the city faces a housing

real Sportsmen are not out on this
account. They ask that this word
be passed to as many hunters as
possible.
Whitley county waters are still
low, says Warden Mars. Cool
weather has slowed the fishing a
little, but some sunshine should
bring them out. Reports of squirrels
with young being killed received
from this section also.

Young Polo Four
From East Given
Giant Riding Task
Kids to Tackle Champion
WeSternerS Tomorrow.

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, Sept. THE role OF
giant killing was assigned today TO
four Young men who will ride out on
international field at Meadow Brook
tomorrow to represent the east IN
the second series with the west.
The eastern selection committee
announced it had picked Mike
Phipps, No. L. Jimmy Mills, No. q;
Winston Guest, No. 8; Billy Post,
No. 4 to gallop against the mauling,
rough-riding gang from the west:
Eric Pedley, No. /; giant Elmer Boe-
seke Jr., No. 2; Cecil Smith, No. 3,
and Aidan Roark, No. 4.
East Has Chance
The task assigned the eastern
kids-only Guest played in last
years series and the other other
three haven't been long out of col
lege polo-is all but overwhelming
and the oply hope appeared to be
in the probability that the east is
better mounted
This western outfit is the same
one that galloped into Chicago last
year and, not supposed to know half
as much about polo as is known on
Long Island, proceeded to ride
Tommy Hitchcock and his friends
right off the field to win two out of
three of the most rousing pony polo
games ever played anywhere.
That series elevated Cecil Smith,
a Texas cowboy, and Boeseke, a
long hitting giant, to 10 goals. This
year the same men who rode for
the West at Chicago are back in the
saddle with the exception of RUDE
Williams, another cowboy, who is
laid up with rheumatism. Roark
takes his place.
Western Ponies Inferior
The West adds up to SO goals and
the East to 30. The East is minus
Hitchcock, prevented from playing
by an injury early this summer.
The West has the power and
punch and the boys have been
playing together for a long time.
They're a tough combination for
four young fellows to ride against.
The westerners, however, don't
appear to have the ponies they had
last year. Their director, Carleton
Burke, remarked today that those
eastern youngsters are going to be
fast, but if we can catch EN-, We'll
beat EN-"

When one team wins the trophy
six times it will become the per-
manent possession of that club. So
far the Columbians have won three
times and the I. A G. two times.
Each year the names of the twenty
five players on the winning team
is engraved on the trophy.
AS a side issue to the team match
Wednesday the I. A. G. club cham
pionship for the 1884 season will
be decided. In a recent tourna-
ment held by members of that club
at Highland, Johnny Simpson, de-
Tending champion, and Frank
Shields, an ex-champion, tied for
first honors with scores of 70 each.
Simpson, who lives in Washing
ton, Ind, and finds it. difficult to
get up here just any time, agreed
with Shields to play it off at this
tournament. The battle between
these two may serve the purpose
of shearing few strokes from the
1. A. G. team total for the day.
A CCORDING to the arrange
L n mentS made yesterday starter
from each club will be at the course
at $50 a. m. Wednesday to certify
each player as a member of his
club, and to accept the score and
post it. Efforts will be made to have
at least one player from the opposi-
! IN
/ ferably two.
While Mr.. Marott originally ruled
that only the lowest total of twenty
five gross scores of each club could
win. the committee has taken care
of prizes for others who take part
on the net score basis. The golf
chairman at each club is urging
every golfer to come out because
any player might turn in one of his
best rounds that day and become
one of his clubs twenty-five lowest

IN addition to the names of the

players who have gained this honor

Jack BiXler, Columbia Club, 1881;
Eugene c. Pulliam, Jr., Columbia
Club, 1882, and Johnny Simpson,
l. A. c., 1888.
Last year the two clubs engaged
in one of the most spirited contests
in the five years history of the
event. When the twenty-five lowest
I. A. c. scores were tabulated they
totaled 2,116. while the Columbia
Club low twenty-five scores totaled
2.122, giving the 1. A. G. six-stroke
win. Johnny Simpson was low

while Sammy Simpson had low for
