chance for the membership to agree
to q two weeks cessation Of play,
which Is what would be needed were
a national title tourney staged over
that layout.
Bob Stead, golf chairman at Chevy
Chase, who handled the Curtis Cup
matches so well last year, says that
it would be unfair to ask the big
membership to give up the golf
course for so long a time.
CLAUDE RIPPY, captain Of the
~ Washington Harding Cup team,
which will go to Indianapolis next
week TO play in the national public
links tourney, Is q worried lad be-
cause Of the rumors that have been
flying around about his amateur
status. Claude knows that nothing
in the nature Of an ofiicial protest
has been made about him or his Job
as a clerk at Rock Greek Park, but he
knows of the conversation going the
rounds. In fact, he even has been
considering not taking the trip, which
would be absolute foolishness.
It's always that way In golf or
anything else. Once q guy gets on
top the other lads begin pecking
away at him. In Claude's case 1t is
his status as an amateur, but there
isn't a scintilla of evidence that
Claude has violated the amateur rule,
despite the fact that he works for a
golf outfit and happens TO be a
darned good golfer himself.
pnLY SHEA, the tall Congressional
~ lad who won the District Junior
title and the schoolboy champion
ship, is going to make his first bid
for the national amateur champion

10 FAR as conflicting dates are
- concerned, the war between the
Turner -Ahearn interests and
- the American Legion for fight
and wrestle show plums is over, but
so far as patronage is concerned 1t
will continue. The rival promotorial
outfits got together yesterday to pre-
pare new schedules-with the Tur-
ner-Ahearn interests getting all the
breaks-but with each going ahead
with two shows a week the situation
remains muddled.
Washington is not big enough to
support two boxing shows every week
and oddly only Monday night has
been good financially for the fight
game. The Legion, represented at the
meeting in the Offices of the District
Boxing Commission yesterday by
Howard Livingston. its fight manager;
Joe Malloy and Frank Peckham ex-
pressed desire to alternate with the
Turner-Ahearn interests for fight
shows on Mondays, but the Turner
Ahearn clique would have none of
that. So the cut-throat business
goes on.
Generally, the rival promoters set
their future schedules for four days
a week-the Legion to conduct box
ing on Wednesdays and wrestling on
Saturdays at its arena at Sixth street
and Florida avenue northeast, and the
Turner-Ahearn interests to carry on
with boxing on Mondays and wres-
ting on Thursday at Griffith Stadium.
However, this schedule will not go
into effect until late next month. The
Legion arena will be dark next week
and there will be no boxing at Griffith
Stadium the following two weeks.
Fights will be conducted by the
Legion on August l and 8 and after
that on Wednesday nights. The
Turner-Ahearn interests will offer
boxing bills on Monday after the
Danno O'Mahoney-Joe Savoldi wres-
ting bout to be staged at Griffith
Stadium August 6.

HAS 73 PER CENT
IN VIRGINIA FINAL
Darr, Henry Easy Victims,
Old Dominion Strong in
Metro PIaY-Offs.

~ EADPAN RAYMOND FRYE
of Orkney Springs, who
pitches horseshoe ringers
- with uncanny skill in prac-
tice. but allows as how he "caint do
much in competition" today held the
Virginia State championship for Sec
ond year by virture of having hurled
73 per cent of his shoes onto the stakes
last night in the Old Dominion section
of The Evening Stars seventh annual
tournament.
In the final the solemn faced young
man knocked off one of the best horse
shoe fingers in this section, Ed. Henry,
as though Ed were a novice. The scores
were Soil, Soil, 54-12, 500.
His treatment of Charley Darr in
the semi final was even more severe
The scores we're 54-5, 50-6.
I'm wondering" commented Charley
today, "how got those IL points"
Said Frye to the tournament man.
ager: I'm sorry couldn't get goin'.'
YOU see he'd been ballyhooed
straight across the board as an
attraction in The Star tournament
and thought he'd fallen down. In
practice down at Orkney Springs,
where nobody can make him press
he's used to shooting games of 80 per
cent ringers. Once he came within
one ringer of firing perfect game.
Against Henry he started with a
6S per cent game and improved stead
lily as the match progressed, with 70
per cent in the second, IA In the
third and 79 in the eighth.
In the opener he chucked IA ring
ers in 16 pitches and threw Is out of
10 to finish the second, but got really
hot in the fourth, which he started
with IA out of 16 and finished with
IL out of IA.
1t was the greatest exhibition OF
ringer throwing ever seen in The Star
tournament, which is in its seventh
year.
Henry reached the final by beating
his contestant rival, George C. Thomp-
son, 50-26, SOL, $40. Thompson
came from far behind in the third
game in a stubborn effort to get shot
at Frye

Danzberger Moves Up.

THE veteran, a former State cham
pion, has been handicapped by a
lack of practice and his game is far
below his standard of other seasons.
Hoot Danzberger, young southpaw,
won the consolation round for the
sixth place on Virginia's team in the
metropolitan district play-offs, which
are scheduled for next Thursday. Vir-
ginia'S other representatives will be
Boo Henson, defending metropolitan
champion: Frye, beaten by Henson in
last years final; Thompson and Henry.
This list packs more class than Mary
lands and likely Washington's. The
Capitals tournament will be held next
Monday and Tuesday nights on the
municipal playground courts at the

This manager of fishing boats at
Plum Point Beach is conducting his
business in the right manner. He now
has a feet of boats from the Chesa-
peake Bay fishing feet Of Tilghman
Island, operated by capable and re-
liable men. We understand that his
motto is courteous treatment for all. !"
Plum Point Beach Is marked clearly
by an arrow and is recommended by
this column to all anglers wishing to
that the captain referred to recently
has commenced to see the error in his
treatment of anglers and will change
his tactics.
TODAY and tomorrow will be great
days for all anglers, either in salt
or fresh water. Select your grounds
and let US know the result.
Bass fishermen chuckled In antiCl-
patory glee this week, welcoming an
announcement by State Conservation
Commissioner Robert F. Duer that
100000 black bass were stocked in
various Maryland streams within the
last few days, according to an A. P.
dispatch. These fish ranged in size
from l to 4 inches, which means the
anglers must wait until their prey
comes of age"
OF special interest to Washington
anglers is the fact that In Montgomery
County the Potomac River was stocked
with 1900 Of these babies. Farther
upstream 1000 small mouths were
placed in the Potomac near Hagers-
town. The largest number were placed
in the Conowingo Lake, where 10000
large mouth were released. We i'm
agine that the majority Of fish placed
in this lake eventually will make their
way into Pennsylvania streams, as the
water in the lake Is 100 and 400 feet
deep, much too deep for the anglers
and also too deep for the fish to seek
food except around the shore line.
