Devittnnen Play
At Richmond

Dewitt Prep footballers are in
Richmond, Va, today to play that
tourney game against Fork Union
Military Academy in the Rich
mond Stadium. If the Devittmen
triumph they may be invited to
play in Miami. Fla, late in the
month in another tourney attrac-
ton.
The McNamara-coached team
has drilled all week for this test
and expects to give the powerful
Fork Union gridders a battle for
honors. Adam zinkievich will be
in the lineup and when this lad Is
right there isn't any stopping
of the Preppers.
The game is the final on the
local scholastic schedule for the
season. providing Dewitt doesn't
get that bid for Miami appear,
ance.

Depend
On Two Stars

In the hands of Ralph Bennie
and Moon" Evans, Heurich
guards, lies in the fate of the
Heurich Pros tomorrow when they
clash in their first pro game of
the basketball season with the
strong Bridgetown Bears at 2:30
p. m.
How one can figure the outcome
of a game on the performance of
less than half of a team is more
plausible when one turns to the
record.
AL Smith, Democratic nominee,
used to say, Let's look at the rec
ord" In looking at the sports rec
ord, the above statement is readily
clarified.
Last season the Brewers met
the Camden IN. JO Pros and were
beaten, 32-29. The two chief
reasons why they lost was the
presence in the Jerseyites' lineup
of Jim McMonigle and Bud
Clancy, who, between them, scored
16 points, almost half Of the Cam.
dens score.
Tomorrow afternoon those same
two lads will be playing for
Bridgeton against the Brewers.
Las. season Bennie guarded Nc
Monigle and Evans was assigned
the task of keeping Clancy from
scoring. 1t takes just a little sim
pie arithmetic to see that if Nc
Monigle had been held scoreless
instead of being allowed to gather
six points, and Clancy had not
skipped under Evans arms to drop
in 10-point total, the result
certainly would have been much
different.

All indications point to the Big
gest stadium crowd that ever
saw a game between two State
teams; to a brillianS and hard
fought battle; and to the most
colorful program generally the
municipal horseshoe has ever had.
Demand For Seats
Arrival of warmer weather, and
prospects for a good day brought
a sharp demand for seats. Mid
week frigidity had somewhat held
down the sale of pasteboards.
It is a most unusual game IN
that the University of Maryland
is receiving no share of the re-
ceiptS and no rental is being
charged by the stadium. All
money taken in, excepting the
Federal tax, goes into fund to
build a modern field house at
Western Maryland College. The
University of Maryland team is
paying all of its own expenses to
the game.
Its the finest demonstration Of
craftsmanship I have ever heard
of in connection with college
athletics" said DR.. Fred G. Ho!'

The Washington times., 1935-12-07

A 10-to-5 vote of the executive
committee brought the resolution
before the delegates, meeting in
annual convention, for a bitter
floor battle in which the contend
ing forces each were given two
hours to present their cases.
President jeremiah T. Mahoney,
of the A. A. u, who may be de-
prived of his leadership because
he is championing t h e anti
Olympic cause, fired the opening
gun by defending the organiza-
tion's right to take a stand on the
issue now.
In his annual report Mahoney
asserted that the question of
whether Germany has violated the
spirit of the Olympic games by
hampering Jewish athletes in their
training had stirred up a nation
wide debate in this country.
IF it is true that the American
Olympic committee has the power
to decide whether a team shall
be sent to Berlin or not" he said,
Surely the delegates to the A. A.
U. have the right to discuss this
issue, the solution of which so
vitality affects amateur athletics in
America"
Should the convention vote for
participation, it was intimated,
the boycott" forces will seek the
withdrawal of financial support
for the American team.
Opponents of participation
made it clear that their attitude
was directly only against Ger
many, and that refusal to send
a team to Berlin would not mean
necessarily that U. S. athletes
would have to stay out Of the
eleventh Olympiad.
The "boycotters" have proposed
other European cities for the
games, among them don,
Paris, Stockholm and Amsterdam.
Each Of these cities has a huge
athletic stadium, and housing
units for the athletes could be
eEeCGeu quickly.
Only Hitch
The only hitch is that this plan
would have to be acceptable not
only to the United States but to
most Of the other countries in
volved.
Mahoney, a leader Of the anti
participation forces, said:
This is a moral issue. No red
blooded American would vote to
tie our tail to the kite of a brutal,
immoral government like that Of
Nazi Germany.
Make no mistake about it.
The German government is ruling
the Olympics. Participation is
against the Olympic principle"
The opposite point of view was
taken by Avery Brundage, chair
man of the American Olympic
committee. He said:
THE German government could
not possibly run it. It's the Olym-
pic committees games - ours,
yours-but not the German gov
ernment's. The matter of partici-
patton was settled two years ago
and nothing will stop U.S."

Family Bow|ers
Set For Match

Feuds have usually been de-
cided with rifle balls, but here's
one that will be settled tomorrow
at 2::30 p. m. with bowling balls.
It will be a three game match, at
the Silver Spring Bowling Alleys,
between two family teams.
Fling VS.. Collins is the way the
score sheets will read, and the
teams are composed, respectively
of three brothers and two sisters,
and four brothers and one sister
Inasmuch as the teams are about
even in averages, the match will
be interesting from bowling
standpoint as well as a family
viewpoint.
Other family teams wishing
matches at the Silver Spring
alleys or home and home games
should communicate with the cap
tain of the winning team.
Thirty-one entries have been re,
ceived in closed sweepstakes of
five games to be held by the
Georgia Avenue and the Silver
Spring American Bowling League
at the Silver Spring alleys. Satur
day, December IA, at 7:30 p. m
1t will be a handicap affair, the
highest average entrant being the
scratch man.
Young peoples societies of tn
churches of Brookland, Wood
ridge and Langdon are forming 6
new bowling league, known az
the B-W-L Federation, to be com
prised of either eight or ter
teams.
One hundred entries are eX
pected to enter the preliminarieE

BY FRANK BUCK" ONEILL
Holding forth scant hope Of re-
building the team by trades at the
American League baseball meet
ing in Chicago, President Clark
Griffith and Bucky Harris entrain
for the midwest metropolis on
Monday. There isn't man on
the whole team whose place is
secure, they say at the Georgia
Avenue Stadium.
Capt. Buddy Myer is sought by
the Yankees, who dangle the
temperamental Ben Chapman in
the eyes Of the Griffs. Harris
wants Chapman if he can get him
at a reasonable price, but Cap'n
Buddy is rated highly by Harris.
Contracts in Path
Buck Newsom and Earl White
hill should be fixtures, but certain
discussions over contracts loom
before the first game is played
next April. Whitehiu is sought
by several clubs, and despite the
fact that the left-hander pitched
over the average of the team he
may move to another city.
Newsom has his best years be-
fore him. After suffering
broken leg on May % when a line
drive by Earl Averill struck him,
Newsom regained his form in the
closing weeks of the season and
pitched brilliant ball. He will re-
main in Washington, however.
Buddy Myer, who led the
American League in hitting also
created a league record for
participating in double plays. He
was in 1873 of these swift
maneuvers, smashing the record
set by Bucky Harris in 1923.
Kuhel Vaults Bottomley
Harris was in 100 double plays.
Myer also forged ahead of Tony
Cuccinello, who had 1913 double
plays in 1881.
Joe Kuhel was in $50 double
plays, breaking Jim Bottomleys
mark of 149 set in 1927, when
Sunny Jim was with the st.
Louis Cardinals. Lou Gehrig is
marching along with Tennysons
Brook. The first-sacker of the
Yankees played his 1,653rd conse-
cutive game.
Among the diamond records
that were tied we're: Bozie Ber-
gers participation in five double
plays; Bill Werber's four doubles
in one game, made on July II ut
tied a record that stood since
190D; Roger Cramer's six hits in
six times at bat (the second time
he has done this; Vernon Ken
nedy'S no-hit game against Cleve-
land, August 81; Ted Lyons two
doubles in one inning and the
unique record of the White SoX
outfield, which had no fielding
chances on September 16

Charley Gehringer, Of the Tigers,

SOFT COAL MINERS
Ordered to Quit Work On
June 16

Washington, D. G. (ILNS) Follow
ing breakdown of negotiations for a
new wage contract, the United Mine
Workers of America ordered more
than 100000 miners in all bituminous
fields to strike at midnight June Is.
The strike call was issued by Presi-
dent John L. Lewis.
The present contract expires at the
hour set for the strike to begin.
"In the absence of orders to the
contrary" the call said, "the mining
of coal will cease on that date and all
members of the United Mine Work
ers of America in the bituminous in
dustry, exclusive of those otherwise
excepted, will refrain from entering
the mines.
"This suspension will continue until
terminated by action of the Interna-
tional policy committee Of the United
Mine Workers of America and until
you are further advised"
The exceptions are workers who
are to be permitted to stay on the
job ''to insure proper care and pro-
lection of all mining property"
Bumpers, engineers and others
necessary to protect the property
must be allowed to remain at work. Z
the instructions said. "The fullest
cooperation must be given mine man
agement in order to safeguard and
protect property and under no cir
cumstances should this rule be yio-
lated or set aside by local unions.
"The present situation in the BIZ
luminous mining industry calls for
the exercise of good judgment, moral
courage and loyalty by every member
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea. Orderly procedure must be fol
lowed at all times. There must be
no violation Of law nor disturbances
of the public peace"
In addition to Lewis, the strike call
was signed by Vice President Philip
Murray and Secretary Treasurer
Thomas Kennedy, Of the United Mine
Workers.
President Lewis said that enact
ment Of the Guffy coal regulations bill
would stop the strike. The miners
and the American Federation of La
Dor have been pushing the bill vigor-
ously.
