We are having some warm days,
Causing thought of good highways.
And the places we'd like to go,
Where it's cool even snow.
So let's give the traveller a treat
Put a highway on Adams street.
And underpass at the S.P.,
The proper thing don't you see.
Routing 80 is not so hard,

Connecting eighty and ninety nine,

quite a leap for any thoroughbred.
Of course, Action only ran back
to the promise he held out several
years ago. He always had speed,
and degree of quality, as we'll as
the very desirable talent of con-
sistency. Bad underpinning sent
him to racing over the jumps, and
when offered for sale at auction
early in the year he seemed little
more than a has-been that might
win back a moderate cost. Earn
ingS of some $4,000, through the
medium of dozen victories, many
of them handicaps, bear ample wit
ness to Actions being the bargain
horse of 1896.
Basil James topped the riders in
the two most important depart
mentS of a Jockeys career-while
he is young; rode the most winners
and landed first with the biggest
percentage of his mounts. James
was easily the jockey development
of the year.
Richards Comes Back
Harry Richards did a genuine
comeback, never rode more con-
sistently we'll. Always a patient
rider with a horse, timing his run
to a nicely, Richards displayed his
judgment of pace and GOODNESS on
several important occasions.
Johnny Longden rode in many
sectors of the country, against all
types of jockeys, and better than
held this own everywhere.
Johnny Gilbert shone partic-
ularly with 2-year-olds this year.
Albert Bobby" Robertson did
exceptionally we'll in short-distance
events. on juveniles as well as
older horses.
Ira Hanford handled Bold Ven
ture in masterful style to win the
Kentucky Derby.
While many racing fans believed
Jimmy Stout cost Granville three
stakes victories, when beaten noses
by Teufel Tin the Wood, Bold
Venture (Preakness) and Fire
thorn (Suburban), Trainer Jim
Fitzsimmons declined to weaken,
and kept jockey and horse to-
gether until they got the hang of
one another and proved unbeat'
able.
Granville To Be Remembered
The year of 1886 was one of the
best that racing has known in re-
cent times. Enough stellar horses
were out to keep sports fans con-
scious of racing throughout the
season. Granville and Bushranger
are likely to be milestone horses
years from now when the veterans
of tomorrow fall to reminiscing of
the stars of past decades. And
many of the best of 1886 are likely
to be back in 1937-along with
some unSung ones of this season

Clash Today

ATLANTA, Ga, Dec. 26.-The
"ramblin' wreck" from Georgia
Tech, otherwise known on the grid
iron as the Golden Tornado, is
grimly determined today to check
the Golden Bears of California on
the football field. The Bears, at
l to 3 among the fraternity, which
the Wreck" considers the best
possible omen in a year in which
the unusual was the commonplace
and football form has been scram,
bled like breakfast egg.
If the threats and promises of
both teams are carried through,
the game will be a spectacular bat
tie between teams playing wide
open football. Stub Allison, head
coach Of Georgia Tech, has loaded
the attack of the Bears with lat

calculated to completely bewilder

the occasion, and something is
bound to happen.

The Buff and Blue Colonials Of
George Washington University set
the pace on local basketball courts
last season as interest in the sport
scared to new heights. The Colo
malls won 16 games and lost 3, and
averaged slightly more ttan AZ
points per game while holding the
enemy to less than q points per
game.
University of Maryland and
Catholic University finished on
the winring side of the percentage
column Georgetown, in one Of
those years where coach and stu
dent body, together, look to an
other year for greater success,
found the trail bit rugged.
Navy, Gallaudet and American
University contributed to the
success of the season. Navy,
starting brilliantly, fell upon evil
times in the last five starts Of
the year, bowing to Army in the
last game Of the season.
Bows To Ohio State
George Washington bowed to
Ohio State, st. Johns and Long
Island University, the last named
team achieving the rare distinc-
ton of playing through a season
undefeated. The ColonialS came
back against Ohio State and
avenged the early season defeat
in sensational style, outscoring
the Buckeyes to the tune of %
to As.
Hal Kiesel, six foot four CEN
ter, was one of the leading fac.
tors in the success of the Coloni.
ais. He scored more than so per
cent of his shots from the floor.
Tommy O'Brien was a sensa-
tional player at all times, and
averaged better than 10 points
per game. Tuffy Leemans, who
went from the George Washing.
ton campus to glory in the pro-
feSsional field. also contributed
richly to the success of the Buff
and Blue.
The coach and director of this
outstanding team was Bill Rein
hart who came East from Univer-
sity of Oregon. Bill is one of the
prominent mentors in this rapidly
growing game. With a well bal
anced team available, George
Washington should do we'll this
year.
Win 13, Lose
Although the Maryland TerpS
finished fourth in the Southern
Conference with four victories in
seven conference starts, the Col
lege Park boys finished the season
with 13 victories and defeats.
Vic Willis and Bernie Buscher
were among the leading scorers Of
the East. Willis scored 2O6 points
and Buscher accounted for 1872
points. These har pshooting
youths were in no minor way re-
sponSible for the victories scored
against Duke, lazy and George
town.
Maryland has half dozen let.

and Eddie johnson, from last

Hunt Play
Well
By GINO SINH

There was only one disappoint-
ment in local tennis this year and
that was the fact that Barney
Welsh, the Districts No. star,
and his leading rival, youthful Gil
bert Hunt. did not cross racquets
in head-to-head play.
For two years, as each climbed
high into the national spotlight,
WaShingt have been hoping
to see these two wizards fight 1t
out for their personal supremacy.
The two almost claShed in the
Playground Tournament late in
the summer but Hunt ran into a
bad day" and lost to Hy Ritzen-
berg in an early round, while
Welsh went on to capture his third
local singles title of the year.
The Rockville Rocket started
the year off on the right foot by
capturing the City of Washington
tennis crown, the only local cham
pionship he has never held. he
retained the District and the play
ground titles.
Win Double Titles
In the meantime, Barney and
his partner, Ralph McElVenny,
were making collection OF all
the major doubles crowns, win
ming the City of washington, the
District and the Playground
doubles McElyenney went his
partner one better, picking up
the Middle Atlantic doubles crown
with Barney's rival, Gil Hunt, as
his running mate. Gil proved his
right to be rated the champs"
leading challenger when he swept
on to victory in the Middle At
lantic singles, while Barney was
out Of town.
Tony Latona regained the Gov
ernment Clerks singles title, and
Tony and Ed Mather captured
the doubles crown, while Sara
Moore picked up the woman's
championship.
Ritzenberg Muny King
The Public Parks champion
ships held much interest due to
the exodus of the ranking play
ers from the muny courts. Nate
Ritzenberg gained the laurelS by
downing Pat Deck in the finals
with Herb Shenkin and Ray
Stocklinsky annexing the tandem
diadem.
Sara Moore defeated Dorette
Miller for the women's singles
while the doubles crown went to
these two as partners.
Edith Clarke won the city Of
washington women's singles while
the District singles and Army and
Navy singles crowns went to Mrs.
Margaret Carspecken Robinson.
Nate Ritzenberg, Public Parks
title holder, copped the inter-
scholastic Junior crown while his
brother, Allie, won the boys. Allie
went on to capture the District
junior title and the two were
crowned interscholastic doubles
champions. Leonard Sokol is the
District boys tennis king.
Monument City Champ
The Monument team captured
the Capital City Public Parks pen
nant and then wrestled the city's
crown from Treasury, Depart
mental League champion.
The Hotchkiss Cup returned to
Washington as the CapitaliteS out
classed the Baltimore, Norfolk and
Richmond outfits with their great
collection of stars. Washington
Public Parkers registered an i'm
pressive victory over Philadelphia
during the summer.
A move to form a working or
ganization to cover all tennis &C
tivities in washington and suburbs
has borne fruit in the District
Tennis Association, which, though
not yet completely organized in
details, is expected to blossom
forth in all it's glory next season
