HUNTERS POINT.
FOR SPRING
EVENTS

The hunters are tuning up for
the spring season.
Already three meets are on
schedule for the near future-a
schedule that should answer all
the whims of the dyed-in.the.wool
fan.
The first of these meets is in
the form of the Fort Myer eve
ming Horse Show" This is due
at Fort Myer March 26.
The other two meets come on
March 80 and April 6. The first Of
these is the Riding and Hunt
Clubs hunter trials, which will be
held on the new club grounds in
Rock Creek Park on the East
West Highway and Beach Drive.
Deep Run Meet
The third of the meets is the
Deep Run Hunt Clubs race at
Curle's Neck.
Entries for all of these events
are coming in rapidly. Courses
for classes three, four and five
will be set up for the Fort Myer
event on the afternoon of March
% and the evening of March Is.
Entries for this affair close March
20.
An indoor polo game will be an
added attraction to the Fort
Myer meet. Two teams from Fort
Myer will compete.
Prizes in five classes will be the
feature of the Riding and Hunt
Club show. The Riding and Hunt
Club Plate, open to all hunters
owned and ridden by members of
the Riding and Hunt Club, will
be the principal prize.
StimSOn to Present
This will be presented the win.
ner in Class l by the Hon. Henry
L. Stimson, president of the Rid
ing and Hunt Club.
Among the many star entries
for the Deep Run Hunt Clubs
races is Star Wink, winner of the
fourth event in 1933-34. Star
Wink will attempt to repeat his
former successes, although plenty
Of competition is expected from
the other horses.
A strong committee is busy
making preparations for this meet
and indications promise a record
breaking gathering.
The race committee of the Deep
Run Hunt Club is making exten-
Sive improvements in the courses
at Curle's Neck in preparation for
April 6.
D. c. Sands, master of fox
hounds of the Middleburg Hunt,
and Jack Skinner, well-known
cross-country rider, have made a
thorough inspection of the timber
course at the request of the race
committee, and have offered very
valuable suggestions with regard
to relocation and improvement OF
fences.
Skinner expects to furnish at
least four entries, and anticipates
some 10 or IL others from the
Middleburg neighborhood. The
brush course is being rebuilt to
specifications furnished by vii.
liam DUPONT, and both. courses
will compare most favorably with
the best courses in the East.

Grafton for good many years,
the league will hold its first sweep

witz is manager of this years edl-
ton. His supporting cast includes
some of the best Sandlot baseball
ers in the city.
Reds Rhodes, Benny Spiegel
and Ellis Goodman are the pitch
ers. The former two will carry
the brunt of the hurting assign
ments while Goodman will act as
the Fred Marberry for the team.
Hall at First
The infield comprises Dan Hall,
first base; Sherman Johnson,
second base; Frank Fera, third
base, and Ray Hager and Howard
Mann, short-stops. Both are
fighting for that position at pres
ent with the battling at stand
still.
Dewey Lowe, Bob Ross, John
Trundle, Bill McCracken and Artie
King are the outfielders. Lowe,
Ross and Trundle will hold down
regular berths in all likelihood al
though McCracken and King are
sure to be considered in the final
reckoning.
Nitowitz and Russell Grogan
will do the catching. Both are ex'
perienced men on the SandlotS
and should help the pitchers in
their games.
Turner's on Squad
Speaking of pitchers, Nitowitz
has two other hurlers who are
bound to aid the Big Three. "
They are the Turner brothers, Ed
and Charlie, former pitchers for
Tech High about three years ago.
Completing the teams roster is
Vince Scafide, Bill Fiscus, Leonard
Askin, George Fox and Johnny
Sorrell, infielders. These players,
like all of the others, will fight
for Jobs when the first practice
sessions are held, beginning Sun
day on the Monument Grounds.
The Meridians aren't going to
play many home games this sea-
son because of the bulky out-of-
town schedule NitowitZ has ar
ranged. The team played twelve
contests on foreign fields in 1884
and won seven and lost five.
Among the victims were Alta
Vista, Winchester, Glen Burnie
and New Oxford.

F FR|SCH HOLDS
ANSWER TO
FLAG HOPES

CONTINUED from First Sport PdRe)
Burgess Whitehead, one of the
greatest, etc, etc.
So maybe the Cards have
been a little unlucky all this
time, in that Frisch has been
playing second base and White
head hasn't. But I can't avoid
being impressed with the fact
that the Cardinals won five pen
nants since 1925 and that Frisch
has had a great deal to do with
four of them.
What About whitehead
In this respect, it is surpris-
ing to add that the club that
looked so impregnable in the
last two world series games now
can appear just a shade dubious.
The fact is that it has suddenly
developed question marks.
If Frisch can't go through, can
Whitehead?
If the Deans win 35 instead of
49-and there seems to be an i'm.
preston here that the former fig.
ure will be more nearly correct
can Bill Hallahan, Pat Malone and
Bill Walker take up the slack?
If Terry Moore is not the GEN.
ter fielder, who is?
Taking these second and third
questions in order-nobody can
answer the firSt-I'd say that the
Deans will win less than so and
more than 40, so maybe we can
forget about that and turn our
attention to something important.
Well Know Later
Hallahan looked as though he
had come back in the third game
of the big series, but we'll know
more about that later. can't get
frantic about Malone and walker
or Bud Timing, another Chicago
refugee. Why, they're even talk.
ing about old Jess HaineS and the
older Dazzy Vance.
Beyond the Deans, the staff just
doesn't look right. But there's six
juveniles or ingenues around, any
three of whom might do more
than make it a staff; they can
make it an army squad. They are
Norbert Kneinke, a right-hander
who won IA for Rochester; Harrell
Ray, another who won Is; Henry
Pepper, from Houston; Dick Ward,
from Los Angeles; Ed Huesser,
from Knoxville, and the flower
of the flock, Mays Copeland, from
Houston.
One or two of them, notably
Copeland, may come through and
adjust everything.
Only Looking at Eugene?
So may the following: Infield-
ers, Charley Wilson, Columbus
and Rochester; Fred Ankinmsn
and Tom Carey, Rochester, and
Don Gutheridge, Houston. Out
fielders, John WinSett, who hit
1856 for Rochester, and Eugene
Moore, who outhit the other
Moore at Columbus. However, 1
fear they're only looking at Eu-
gene-and he won't be long look
ing at them. Ernie Orsatti, who
played good and bad baseball in
center field last year, is still
around.
Behind the plate, they ought to
be definitely better with Delaney
available for the entire year. In
fact, has it occurred to any one
that the club started to come on
after Delaney replaced Virgil
Davis? When that young man
hits the ball, it hits the fence.
Bob O'Farrell is the third catcher,
meaning something or other or
maybe nothing.
Oh yes; it's decidedly a club
that can win again. In fact, it
looked last October the part of a
club that couldn't lose. But maybe
it will.

HIGH SHERIFF
 WAS IN DILEMMA
County Jail Inmates, Cast in Prison Play, Walk
 Out on Him

New Haven, Conn.,, Dec. 24-CU. |P.)-T'was the day before Christ mas, and High Sherin J. Edward Slavin was in a dilemma.
 And why notl Just as the sheriff had his county jail inmate-cast ready for dress rehearsal of their one-act play, "A Question of Prin- ciple", minimizing police court judges, imbued with the holiday spirit, liberated Ss members of the chorus.
 The play, a musical mock trial. was to be presented at the jail Christmas day. Inmates were to portray all roles except those of jurors, which were to be played by professional actors furnished by WPA.
 "what fix" lamented Slavin, sThe whole gang walked out on me. That's gratitude for you"
 Among those who were freed were the prosecutor" the prison err, and the judge"
 "Well," he sighed, there's only one thing to do. The show must go on, even if we have to enlist the guards and pick up the rest of the cast from the street, But the show must go on"

STORMS HAVE HIT
 GREAT BRITAIN.

London, Dec. 24-(UP)-A Yule- tide fog that had obscured Great Britain like a wool blanket re- treated today-but only before an icy downpour of rain and sleet.
 Ros ads were icy. Ten persons were known dead in accidents. Fore eaters predicted rain and sleet throughout the day, with 8 gradual rise in temperature and rain to- morrow for Christmas.
 It was the heaviest fog and frost in England in ten years. Visibility at many places was only six feet, Railroads, shipping and general traffic were tangled and in some areas made impossible.
 Thousands of Christmas shoppers were kept at home. Others were stranded in deepest fog, including the Duke of Kent, who abandoned his, automobile and went home by subway.
 It was estimated that 40 vessels were moored at the mouth of the Mersey with hundreds of Americans and Canadians aboard, unable to land.

 Boston Post -"The news that Colonel Lindbergh has been forced into precipitate flight with his wife and infant son to seek shelter in England where his family can be safe from kidnapers, gang sters, racketeers and the slimy poli- ticians who feed on them, should make every American who loves his country bow his head in shame"
