LA AsSDGkbA Ds u Sns
~ RANGE always has stressed
classes for the young hunt
I ers, just cutting their eye
~ teeth on show ring fences,
and that fact incontestably gave DR..
Lewis Aliens Royal Wonder q dis
tinct edge in reaching the champion
ship circle. Royal Wonder is q 3-year-
old, and as such was able to lift four
blue ribbons in events not open to the
hunter field at large.
The sauce for that pudding was
poured out, however, when the Won
der crashed through with another
blue in the thoroughbred hunter class,
contested by 20 hunters of all ages.
Furthermore, only once in Two days
did the big gray son Of Cog Gaulois
fail to wind up in front of all op-
position.
That was in the green hunter stake,
where single knockdown slipped him
into third place behind Gen. Mitch
ellis Golden Repulse, the winner,
and Mrs. George Greenhalghs
Hunters Choice, which took the red.
Incidentally Golden Repulse was a
single class behind L. r. Colberts
Skyrocket In the race for reserve
championship. The two classes
wherein they met, the lightweight
and ladies' divisions, ended with one
victory for each. Altogether they
would have stood at a 14-point tie,
except for the hunter pairs, in which
Skyrocket shared in the Colbert VIC
tory and eased within closer striking
distance Of Royal Wonder than we
had at first realized.
Inn ANDREWS luck seemed to come
all in q rush. He had been farine
below par with his string up until
the last hours of the meeting, when
suddenly Greenwood won the Monte
bello Cup for local hunters, Magic
Maid and Kippema placed one-two in
the big hunter stake, Round Hill was
third in the Corinthian and the An
drews hunt team capped the squirt
with handy victory. In addition
to the plate and prize money, Jim
also vanned home nice-Iooking black
colt named Tar, purchased in q mid
day auction held for the benefit of
the crippled children of the district.
The committee at Orange bright
ened up its routine by staging some
f1ve-gaited saddle horse classes.

- AMP LET'S, Md, September
with two new assistant
I coaches-Bnl Parrish and
- Hank Strayer assuming
their duties under Jim Pixlee, George
Washington University's foot ball
aspirants established preseason train
ing quarters here this morning. pre-
paratory to undergoing their first
practice of the 1885 campaign.
More than so varsity and freshmen
players, making the trip from WASH
ington by buses, were greeted by the
new assistant mentors whose appoint
ments were announced last night. But
to score Of holdovers from the 1884
squad 1t was simply q case Of meet
ing old buddies. Both Parrish and
Strayer graduated from G. w. last
June after three years Of sterling
efforts on the gridiron.
Help With Linemen.
pARRISH will help in coaching the
ends and Strayer will work with
the guards. Both, too. will do gen.
eral coaching for few days until
the various position groups are organ
lied for intensive and specialized
training. Parrish, brother Of Finish
Parrish, another former Colonial grid
hero, was one Of the best ends in
recent Washington college history.
Strayer will be long remembered for
a game-saving tackle In the Okla
homa game last Thanksgiving day
when Sooner back in the last two
minutes Of play seemed headed for
sure touchdown that would have
overcome o 80 G. w. lead.
One workout was scheduled for this
afternoon with calisthenics and ordi-
nary limbering-up exercises con-
suming most of the time. Beginning
tomorrow morning, however, Coach
Pixlee will step up the pace quickly
and scrimmages likely will be held
before the end Of the week.
This promises to be the largest and
most capable Colonial grid squad
since Pixlee started pushing @. w.
to the foot ball front six years ago.

NeYsom Deserves Win.

PUCK deserved the triumph in every
respect. For inning after in
ming he matched the mastery of Grove,
but when Lefty began to fade toward
the end Newsom seemed even more
effective.
Both teams scored in the fourth
inning, Boston on triple by Werber
and an inf1eld out, and Washington
on three successive singles by Fred
Schultz, Travis and Powell. That was
all the scoring, but by no means all
Of the thrills, until the fourteenth
frame, which Travis led off with a
double. Powell's single advanced
Travis, but Kress forced Cecil at
home.
An intentional pass to Pinch-hitter
Ossie Bluege filled the bases and then
Newsom, with two strikes and no
balls, singled to break his hve-game
losing streak.

Intersectional Enthusiasm.


THE main point about foot ball Is
that 1t covers the interest Of all
sections. They probably are keener
about the game in the South, the
Southwest and the Far West than
anywhere else. But the Midwest and
the East have lost none Of their ira
ditional enthusiasm.
The Southwest still insists that 1t
can turn out five better teams, taken
on q general average, than any other
sector. These teams can be named
from Rice, S. M. u, Texas; T. c. u,
Texas A. and M. and Baylor. There
won't be even an argument if L. S. U.
and Centenary are included, as they
register from that division.
Also there is no argument about
Texas having the five best teams when
it comes to a matter of States. New
York can name Colgate. Army. CO.
lumbia, Fordhan1, Cornell and Man
haitian, picked at random, but this
collection won't average up to the
Texas standard, where at least three
teams will run to seasoned veterans
who have most of what 1t takes.
Rice, Southern Methodist, Texas and
T. c. U. will be about as hard to brush
aside as any four teams selected from
coast to coast. They have the ma
terial, the experience, the speed,
weight, skill and coaching needed to
keep moving along the right road.
