Davis Cottage On Deep Creek
Lake Struck By Lightning

One of the cottages owned by Del
bert Davis, on Deep Creek Lake, was
struck by lightning about 10 o'clock
yesterday morning, causing damage
to the exten of $50 or more, and
stunning seven people who were oc-
cupying the cabin. Mrs. Tom Fisher,
of Lebanon, Pa, miraculously escaped
instant death as the bolt of lightning
burned hole through mattress and
bunk upon which she was lying but
did not strike her.
The lightning shattered timber,
burned holes in clothing and boards,
tore out the screen door, and played
about the room, even pulling nails
from timber. The building did not
catch fire. The lightning entered the
building from a corner surrounded
by four large trees, but the trees
were not touched.

Lightning And Fire Damage
Roof of Mt. Lake Residence

Lightning struck the home of w.
Brent Maxwell, near the tennis courts
at Mt. Lake Park Wednesday morn
ing, starting a fire which caused com
siderable damage to the roof.
The bolt supposedly entered the
house on the electric wires about 8
o'clock during an electrical storm, but
the fire was not discovered until about
$3.50, as an asbestos roof kept the
flames confined to the third floor.
The Oakland fire department was
called and members had considerable
difficulty in reaching the flames. AS
the asbestos had been placed over old
shingles, it was necessary to break
through the roof in several spots be-
fore the blaze could be extinguished.
The damage will amount to several
hundred dollars.

BARCLAY DEFEATS BRODA
AND TAKES TENNIS TITLE
Baltimore Ends FOur-year Reign
of Pittsburghers at Mt. Lake
Tennis Tournament
BIG CROWD SEES FINALS

ended the four-year reign of Pitts
burgh racqueters in the mems singles
division in the Western Maryland
championship tournament at Mt. Lake
Park by defeating Frank Broida, of
the Smoky City, Saturday afternoon
in the feature finals of the seven
teenth annual event.
In surprise upset, Barclay, seeded
No. z, downed the former champion,
seeded No. 1, in four sets, 6-3, 2-6, g.
2, 6-3. These southpaws hooked up
in one of the best battles of the tour
ney before the largest crowd of the
week. Broida, in losing, failed to gain
permanent possession of the challenge
cup after capturing legs on it with
victories in 1888 and 1884.
Barclay Shows Class
Barclay went to the final round
easily, winning from Russell Ponton,
Cumberland; Lloyd Gordon, Pitts
burgh; and Alfred Dickinson, Camp
Virginia. Pittsburgh's monopoly in the
singles division began in 1882 when
DR.. O'Loughlin gained the title. Fol-
lowing Broida's two consecutive tri-
umphs, Robert L. Madden, another
Pittsburgher, won his leg on the cup
last year but did not compete this
year.
Edith Clarke, of Washington, D. c.,
defeated Anne Harrison, of Balti-
more, As, 6-1, 6-2, to win her first
leg on the women's challenge pitcher,
put into competition in 1884 and upon
which Miss Frances Grimes, Morgan
town, has had her name inscribed
two times. She failed to compete this
year due to a back injury.
Miss Clarke, seeded No. 1, gained
the finals by eliminating Jeanette Ha-
gan, of Pittsburgh; Virginia Trenary,
Martinsburg; and Elizabeth Bopst, of
Frederick. Miss Clarke and Elmer
Rudy, of Baltimore, won the mixed
doubles division title by defeating
Anne Harrison and Barclay, of Balti-
more, in the finals, GO, GA. The Win
ners bested Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel
Webb, Greensburg, Pa, to earn the
right to play Harrison and Barclay.
F. H. Barclay, Jr., and Frank Will
liams, Jr., Natural Bridge, Va, won
the mems doubles crown by defeating
Paul Pollard, of Lynchburg, Va, and
Rudy, 81, 1-6, SO, 6-3, ON Friday
afternoon. In the semi-fnals Pollard
and Rudy defeated John Brown and
Broida, while Barclay and Williams
put out the Wheeling pair of Wright
Hugus and Stump Fredericks.
At the conclusion of the matches
medals were awarded to winners and
runners-up in all divisions. Presenta-
tions were made by Major W. N.
Skyles.
Announcement was also made of
next years tournament beginning
Monday, August 8. This year num-
Der of new players were present thru
out the week which added new i'm
petus to the annual event which is
held under the auspices of the Wom-
ems Civic Club of the Park, and
sanctioned by the United States Lawn
Tennis Association.

BOROUGH FANS
EXPECT CROSBY
win BY PLENTY
Two to Six Touchdown
Margin Set Up-Game
in Borough Saturday

Naugatuck, Nov. 5-From two to
six tpuchdowns. That's how many
local football fans are gloomily pre-
dieting Crosby high of Waterbury
will trim the local high school
football team when the two ancient
rivals meet saturday at Recreation
field here. .rr
Few, II any, anticipate q Nauga-
tuck victory In view Of the fact the
Garnet has won only one game thus
far and Crosby has had q fine rec
ord. There has been very little men
ton OF the game In circles other
than the high school student body.
In former years hundreds Of local
football fans would be talking about
the Naugatuck teams chances at
least week and half before the
game, but there seems very little
interest In the battle between the
two elevens this year.
Despair
The defeat Of Naugatuck by Shell
ton high last Saturday dashed
whatever hopes local fans had of q
close game with Crosby. In addition
1t seriously hurt the morals Of the
Garnet team. That seems to be one
Of the main troubles Of the local
eleven this year, lack Of confidence
and inspired playing. The usual
dash and pep Of local teams of the
past has been lacking in a number
Of games this year. Even the play
ers laugh off their misplays.
Most local fans who will see Sat-
urday's game will hope for fairly
close battle but will expect an over
whelming Crosby triumph. OF
course IN past years the dope has
been upset In Naugatuck- Crosby
games, but there seems little likeli-
hood Of such result this year.
Crosby has faced and trimmed
stronger opposition than Naugatuck
which with fair material has not
even played fair football. It has
been discouraging to Coach Peter
j. Foley who for so many years
helped to put Naugatuck teams at
the Top Of the heap.
Long OuuS
SO II any Waterburians are look
ing for Naugatuck money, they had
better be prepared to offer very
heavy odds on the game result or
bet whether or not Crosby will win
by more than three touchdowns.
Naugatuck lost last week through
injuries Selinskas, a member of the
backfield. He will not be able to
play Saturday. Coach Foley may
have some trick plays up his sleeve
but whether or not q team that has
fallen down on routine plays, can
carry out the more intricate ones
remains to be seen.
The local line, which played fair
ly well In some other games, was
woefully weak last Saturday, Shell
ton only restoring to passes twice.

Of thinking where they are going
after bowling.
Captain Frank spillane says that
he wished his players would keep
their mind on bowling instead OF
thinking where they are going after
bowling, Jerry Kenney and Chris
Delaney were caught the other day
rolling stones down Wall street,
when asked what they were doing
that for, they just replied, wait
and see."
Well, what's all that noise down

oilers, last year champs, and Law
yers are tied for second place and,
Of course, the Underwriters pull up
In last place, but Captain Jerry
Kenney says that the first shal! 90
