My oldest son, Richard Allen, was
born In the morning of the game with
Michigan In 1929. That afternoon Pur-

by 1876 and came out Of 1t winning,
30-16, after having scored four quick
touchdowns. The team then went on
to finish the season undefeated and

suspicion, however, that the players
and coaches had far more to do with
the victory than Richard or |, but it's

believe the story.

The Newfoundland Dog

The Newfoundland dog did not be-
come popular until after the visit of
the then Prince of Wales to this coun-
given Newfoundland dog which was
considered a perfect giant and not by
any means typical Of the breed. This
dog stood considerably over 80 inches,
according to the descriptions written
at that time. No other dog as large
had ever been reported on the island.
1t was a monarch of the breed, fitting
for king, and it was given to the fu-
ture monarch.

Charles A. McCulloch who, in addi-
ton to being director In % corpora
tons and receiver for the insult in
terests, is chairman of the board at the
Arlington race-track, believes that the
turf needs a Will Hays, Hugh John
son or Judge Lands. He says, right
ly, that the present abuses of too many
tracks and too many racing days must
eventually wreck the sport unless some
national system Of control is adopted.
Bill Terry is the easiest on bats of
the National league heavy hitters. He
uses only three or four a season while
Cuyler and Babe Herman each wreck
from 70 to 100 bats. That largely is
because Kiki and Babe hit numerous
balls with the end of the bat while
Terry usually connects somewhere
close to the trade mark.

Viking Warriors Really
Rough and Ready Fellows

Viking warriors loved a fight so
much that when they were stimulated
by strong drink and war songs, they
would fight brothers and friends, and
even attack rocks and trees, notes a

troit News.
Most famous of these warriors were
the berserks, or champions who served
as bodyguards to kings and chiefs.
They fought just for the fun of IT. Of

Stocking Returns to Bowling
WhirI as SIuer Spring Boss

- ARLE D. STOCKING, who, as a
l. battling president OF the Wash
ington City Duckpin Associa-
IL ton and later progressive
alley manager, did much to mold the
bowling history Of the Capital, is back
with a headful of ideas, this time as
pilot Of the Silver Spring plant.
Stocking recently returned to the
Capital from Norfolk where. as the
manager of leading maple establish
ment, he accomplished a lot to de-
velop the sport. Through his efforts
the National Duckpin Bowling Con-
gress championships were taken to the
virginia port in 1882 and will be held
there next year.
For two years Stocking has sought
to return to Washington, and now
here promises to be building infiu-
ence, not only in the Capitals bowling
affairs, but those of the country. The
St. Patrick's day doubles, national
event originated by him, comes with
Stocking from Norfolk to Silver
Spring.
Gifted in the art of stirring interest,
it was Stocking who brought out" the
famous Ida Simmons of Norfolk, who
last season was ranked not only the
No. 1 girl duckpin shooter Of the
country, but the most valuable to her
team. Miss Simmons will appear In a
number of Silver Spring programs.
Stocking plans fiashy reopening OF
the suburban plant, In swhich a num-
Der of national stars will assist.
incidentally, he will have Sunday
bowling at Silver Spring starting Sep
TENDER 8.
