Talk about a headache!
Double portions Of aspirin have
been ordered for the officials Of
the United States Golf Associa-
ton as the second days play be-
gan bright and early today for the
postponed finish Of the national
women's championship qualifying
round on the south course.
Possibly it couldn't have been
helped, considering the size of the
field. Maybe the answer is in sec.
tional qualifying, and the U. S.
G.. A. did the best it could. Re-
gardless, the 1885 qualifying test
will go down in history as the most
confused affair on record.
19 Women Play
Nineteen women, halted by
darkness, are resuming play
just where they left off late
last night. Only one player. Bette
WaterhouSe, of Maryland, is con-
ceded to have chance to get in.
And getting in means not actually
qualifying in the select "a, but
becoming involved in a play-off
wherein already there are IA ready
to fight tooth and nail for nine
places, with scores of 81 to their
credit.
When the tumult and the shout
ing died away long after Sundown
last night, there were actually SIS
women certain of making the
grade with scores Of 80 or better.
There were SO at 81 or better, but
some of this group will get the
works this morning.
80 Pairs Ready
And when that's all over, and
the draw is finally posted, the
first round of match play will
get under way at / p. m, 80
pairs teeing up. That means
that two rounds will be scheduled
for Wednesday, one round Thurs

Ed Hargdden,
NewMentor,
Is PI leased
BY GARRETT WATERS

Football is rallying around Ed
Hargaden, newly appointed coach,
with all the enthusiasm it can
muster at Georgetown Prep.
The large total Of candidates
tells a great deal Of the story.
Forty aspirants are out for po-
sitions, which total Is the biggest
since the successful days Of Joe
Gardner'S regime.
Naturally, Hargaden is pleased.
For he's tackling a man'sized job
at the little Garrett Park insti-
tuition and what help he gets in
any manner, shape and form
adds that much more to his ef-
forts for success.
Seven men from last years
team form the nucleus. They in
clude Bob O'Shaughnessy, half
back; Dick Canning, all-Prep
guard in 1885; Bill Byrd and
Jack Dettweiler, halfbacks; Ed
Cummings, end; Bill MCGOWAN,
jr., fullback, and Tom Eichen-
laug, 6-foot tackle from the junior
varsity.
Several promising candidates
are on hand to help out. Bob
Douglas, 175-pound center, is one,
while Bill Coakley, 175-pound
tackle; John OBrien, 170-pound
end, and Bob Boylan, 165-pound
fullback, are others.
These lads have come to the
school from out Of town. Douglas
is from Stevens Prep, in New Jer-
sey: Coakley, from Lawrenceville
Prep: O'Brien, from st. Johns
Prep at Denver, Mass, and Boy
Ian from a Chicago high school.
Hargaden's chief problem this
year will be building line. All
but Dick Canning are graduated,
but the mentor is hopeful Of de-
veloping a forward wall from the
new material at hand.
The Little Hoyas do not open
their season until october Is. Two
games are under arrangement for
that day and they'll be with either
Landon or woodrow Wilson High.
Friends is scheduled OCTOBER %;

November 6; st. Johns, November
10: Loyola Of Baltimore, Novem-
ber 20, and Iona Prep at New Ro-
chelle. N. Y, November 26.
This latter contest Is an annual
Thanksgiving Day game between
the two schools. Georgetown Prep
has been on the losing end OF the
score for the past two years. but
it's Coach Hargaden's aim tor
turn in tables this fall.
The St. Johns and Gonzaga
games are the most important
home attractions. The st. Adams
contest is the big one, since an
interesting rivalry is manifest
with this school.
Central, Eastern, Tech and
Western play games in the high
school group this weekend. The
Mt. Pleasanters engage Washing
ton-Lee High at Central on Fri
day: Eastern entertains Gonzaga
at Eastern, Tech meets Episcopal
High at Alexandria, and Western
engages St. Johns at Western,

After having a week of perfect

it's season tonight.
All exhibits will be in place, and
a full program on the Midway and

in keeping with Wednesday and with
Thursday attendance in general. All
attractions were operating in full

delight in strolling through the ex-
hibit hall for an inspection of the
displays there.

the Wednesday crowd as approx
mately $4,000. That included, of course
all school children. Free tickets were
distributed to the school children in
Vance and the adjoining counties, and
Vance county schools all dismissed
at noon Wednesday SO their children
could attend the fair.
Indications are the fair has been a
success financially. The crowds have
been generous, the program complete
and a bigger and more amusing and
entertaining Midway than in years
Those desiring a last minute even
