Appleton Signs
Griff Papers

Peter Appleton, the 1nterna-
tional League hurler who was
drafted by the Griffmen last fall,
is the latest of Clark Griffith
employees to sign a contract for
the 1886 season.
Word from Orlando, Florida, is
to the effect Appleton sent his
signed papers pronto to Griff
after learning of the way Leon
Pettitt, another minor league
veteran" was treated for holding
out.
Further word from Orlando had
Jimmy DeShong reporting. De
Shong is the hurler acquired from
the New York Yankees in that
trade of a month or so ago.
The first vanguard of Griffmen
leave here tomorrow for Orlando,
accompanied by Bucky Harris,
several newSpapermen and maybe
a photographer or two. Harris
himself does not know just who
will be in the squad, but will be
looking around for an expert
hearts" player to while the time
away en- route.
The Washington times., 1936-02-21

now, as against 1913 last sum-
mer and / am in great cOndi-
ton and should easily win rs
games for Washington with any
kind Of support"
NO SIGNS OF THAW
Meanwhile there is no sign Of a
thaw either in Orlando or HartS-
vile, and if both Griff and New
som maintain their positions,
Washington is going to be with
out the services of what should
be it's best pitcher, and Newsom is
going to devote the spring and
summer to talking over a Char
lotte radio station and managing
his heavyweight fighter. one
Johnny Segars, who has been
showing in Sumter, Columbia and
Florence considerably this winter.
Newsom is playing a waiting
game in the full knowledge that
Washington might just as well not
start the season without it's ace
pitcher, and Griff is playing an
equally adroit hand relying on the
public's knowledge he has not
been niggardly in paying Newsom,
who was out Of the game many
weeks last season because Of an
injury.
Buck doesn't take the injury
into consideration, referring to
that as something that may hap
pen to any ball player and some
thing for which he should not be
penalized.
Griff's position is that he isn't
penalizing Buck for the injury in
not allowing Newsom to dictate
his own salary, but more reServ-
ing the right to offer him what he
believes Buck is capable Of earn
ing with this particular ball club
in 1896, with the 1885 chapter a
closed one.

G.W.QuintS Seeks
Spoi|er Role
Tomorrow

The George Washington U.
basketerS, their 14-game string
snapped when nosed out by ST..
Johns College, 1927, in Brooklyn
last night, can atone for this set
back by being the first to blot the
Long Island U. floor record in to-
morrow nights game in the Brook
lyn College of Pharmacy gym.
Long Island U. sports a 31-game
victory streak, seven carried over
from last year. Hal KieSel, G. w.
center, who has been under the
weather, failed to score a point.
The ColonialS, leading l7-8 at
the interval, seemed headed to-
wards their fifteenth straight but
it wasn't in the cards for them to
win. They were powerlesS to
check the long-range shooting Of
the home team and soon the Red
men had deadlocked the score,

forged ahead when Jack Stanley

basket-and they were never
headed afterwards.
rip" Kaplinsky. forward, was
the evenings top scorer with IA
points, closely followed by Tommy
O'Brien, G. w. forward, who reg
istered 13 points.
Fighting uphill, the Catholic U.
basketers today had been re-
warded with a 42-to-35 triumph
over st. Thomas College OF Scran-
ton, Pa, following their game in
the C. U. gym last night. The
Cardinals were trailing, 28-18, mid
way in the second period and ap-
peared doomed to defeat. How
ever, closing squirt, which
found Capt. Bernie Lieb, Hermie
Schmarr and Irish" Carroll drop
ping in baskets from all angles,
not only saw the Cards overtaking
the TommieS but putting them in
a safe lead.
Schmarr, with IA points, and
Lieb, with 10 points, were the ace
scorers for the winners. Karlonin,
with IA points and Coleman. with
13 points, were best Cor the
victims. Captain Lieb held his op
posing center, Bowman, ScoreleSS
from the floor, marking the sec
ond game in a row he had blanked
his rival.

Although the contest marks
the first time a Maryland team
has appeared on the Tech hard
wood, six of the visitors are
thoroughly acquainted with the
floor, having trod it as mem
bers Of local high school fives.
They are AL Waters, Waverly
Wheeler, Bernie BuScher, Fred
Thomas, John Mccarthy and Bill
Bryant. Buscher, key man of
the teams offense and defense;
Waters and Thomas will have
starting roles tonight. Vic Willis
and Charlie king Kong" Keller
will be the other starting Old
Liners. Keller may not be a
polished basketer, but you'll find
him where the action is heaviest
and any coach welcomes that
type of player.
Best on Paper
On paper, Georgetown should
romp over the Terrapins, but
often these paper calculations
don't pan out. It all hinges upon
the frame of mind players on
each team enter the combat.
Should the Georgetowners step
upon the floor with the attitude
that the game is theirs before
the whistle blows, they might be
laid low by an inspired Mary
land team. It can happen, you
know. It's happened before.
Last year, the Hoyas were a rul-
ing choice to beat Maryland in
the Ritchie Coliseum but it was
through the medium of a field
goal by Leon isis" Esenstad and a
foul goal by Don Gibeau in the
ebbing seconds that brought
Georgetown a 25-to-24 victory in a
battle that kept the spectators
tense throughout.
GeorgetoWn's starting lineup
will find Harry Bassin and Gibeau
at forwards; Mike Petroskey at
center and Tommy Nolan and
Johnny Frank or Buddy Nau at
guards.
Played In Local Schools
Tonight'S game takes on added
interest, involving opponents who
played in the local high schools,
some as teammates. Local pro.
ducts performing for the HoyaS
are Harry Basin, Tommy Nolan,
Buddy Nau, Ben Zola, Mario
Gregorio and isis" Esenstad.
Freddy Mesmer, George W

players luck pieces before the
game starts.

Billiard Queen
Exhibits Here
Tonight
By GINO SINH

Washington billiard fans Of both
persuasions will have the oppor-
tunity tonight, tomorrow and
Tuesday to watch a woman who
is undoubtedly the greatest per-
former in her line in history.
It is women'S world pocket bill
liards champion, Ruth McGinnis,
of Honesdale, Pa, who combines
beauty, charm and billiards skill
to the nth degree.
Miss McGinniS is hailed by bill
lard followers as towering above
feminine performers Of the past
and present as the Washington
Monument overshadows a tooth
pick.
Proof Of Ability
The fact that the National Bill
lard Association has considered
her skillful enough to be included
on its Better Billiard" program
is proof that she is exceptional
among exceptionalS.
Only the 10 or IL top-flight
men players can cope with the
Southpaw brunette's game.
Miss McGinniS is a versatile
athlete and just misses the cham
pionShip class in fencing, swim
ming, track, golf and even base
ball.
She started playing billiards at
an age when most girls are more
interested in dolls.
At Lewis and KrauSS
Earle Billiard ParlorS will be
the site of Miss McGinnis' first
appearance today at 4:30 and to-
night at 7:45 she appears at
Lewis and KrauSS.
Tomorrow Miss McGinniS will
demonstrate her skill at Georges
Parlors at 10 p. IA. and Tues
day she stages a final local ex-
hibition at the Arcadia at 7:45
p. m.
The champions program will
include an abbreviated match, an
exhibition Of fancy shots and a
short lecture and demonstration
on the finer points of billiards.
