Matting|y
oAttend Sports
Banquet

Although his majesty Lou Geh-
rig will be numbered among those
present at the Touchdown Clubs
banquet in the Willard Hotel on
the night of December 9, two low
able characters equally as CLAM
orous locally will be pressing the
Columbia University clouter for
favor.
In other words, Judge Robert E.
Mattingly, prominent in roofing
Washington to American League
pennants in 1924 and 1925, and
Sylvester Breen, Alexandria S
grand old man Of baseball, are
among those who are to attend.
Judge Mattingly long has been
established among WaShington'S
first flight baseball fans and, re-
lieved Of the pressure of his jul
dicial duties, is a past master at
roofing the home team home.
Breen, gallant organizer of the
historic Alexandria Cardinals,
and still a loyal follower Of the
national pastime, ever has ex-
tended a helping hand to sports
undertakings in this vicinity.
Gehrig?
He's the guy who led the Amer
lean League in batting and home
runs; Swatted across the most
runs and was leader in hits and
runs tailed: starred in the all-Star
game and World Series.
He also is a would-be talkie Tar
zan-with plenty of physical quail
ficationS for the job.
