Norfolk, with a couple of bow

nament and the National Mixed
Doubles, is determined to make a
strong showing in The Washington
Times Mems Dixie Sweepstakes to
be held in Washington on NoVem-

With this end in view the Vir-

lined up its four leading maple
Smashers for the classic.
Billy Gauer and Buck" Crow

team will carry the BouSh Street
Alleys standard in into the fray,
while Steve Sugar" Kane and Art
Carter, one of Norfolk's latest and
most promising stars, will see that
the colorS of the Health Center
plant does not trail in the dust.
Kane was the outstanding per-
former for the seaport town last
year, garnering nineteenth ranking
nationally for his general all
around excellence.
He is distinct threat in the
Dixie, for last year he set the
pace for the sparkling field for
the first 10 games only to falter
in the stretch run.
With a years added experience
and campaigning under his belt,
and a brilliant showing in the de-
funct Southern Inter-City League,
he will bear close watching by
experts and rivals alike.
In the Southern Inter-City loop,
Kane averaged 1904 for 10
games, and backed that with
1924 average for Sc games in
the Boush Street Major League
and 1853 for IS games in the
Health Center Major League. His
combined general average was
l19-305 for 331 games.
Gauer gained twenty-fifth ma
tional rating with two powerful
league averages, 100 for 81 games
in the Soutern Inter-City circuit
and 1874 for 80 games in the
BouSh Street Major loop.
He backed these fine perform
GnceS by winning the Norfolk City
Sweepstakes with an 1887 total
and placing second in the Vir-

Dixie elimination last year, aver

games in the Health Center Major
League. In the Virginia State he
