Will Hold Sale OF
Purebred Cuernseys
Here Next Tuesday
Ashe COunty's First Consign-
ment Sale Sponsored By
Dairymen And College.
ALL FARMERS INVITED

To encourage the dairymen and
all other farmers in Ashe county
to take advantage of a golden op-
portunity and to make it easier for
them to start improving their stock
of milk cows, a Purebred Guernsey
Consignment sale will be held in
West Jefferson next Tuesday, No
vember 16, at noon.
This sale, which will be the first
one of its kind ever held in the
county, is being sponsored by the
Ashe Dairymen's Association, in
conjunction with the Agricultural
Extension Division at State Col
lege.
A total of ten of the states 1arg-
est and best breeders of purebred
guernsey cattEe will have heifers
and bulls consigned here for the
sale and H. E. Bates, of Atlanta,
Ga, field representative of the Am
erican Guernsey Cattle Association,
will conduct it.
These heifers, which will be sold
to the highest bidders, were select
ed from the various breeders by j.
A. Arey, director of dairy extension
at State College Their ages range
from 6 to 16 months.
F. r. Farnham, dairy specialist Of
State College, was here last week
and arranged for the sale, with the
cooperation of County Agent c. j.
Rich and the association. =
While discussing the proposed sale,
Mr.. Farnham pointed out that the
state is importing around a half
million pounds of cheese each year
and that Ashe county farmers can
prevent this if they will supply the
local Kraft-Phenix Cheese plant
with milk. He also explained that
the state is importing lot of but
ter, too.
He stated that instead of paying
out from $4,000 to $4,000 to local
farmers every two weeks, that the
Kraft plant, he thought, would
gladly increase production here and
pay out many times that much.
In the county it is estimated that
there are around 400 farmers who
have an average of about 4 milk
cows, and who are selling their sur
plus butterfat to the cheese plant.
Of this number there are only abou+
Is who have as many as 10 or more
cows.
Practically all of the other farm
ers are engaged in raising beef cat
tie. "These farmers now have an
opportunity to get income every
IS days instead of just once year."
it has been explained. A good milk
cow, properly fed, will produce be-
tween SIS and SIPS annually, all
thing being equal.
Published in a full page adver-
tisement on page three of this is
sue is an advertisement in which
all the names of the breeders who
are participating in the sale are
listed. A full list of the members
and officers of the Ashe Dairymen's
Association is also given.

pROFITNG by its opponents
mistakes, George Washington
defeated Catholic University, 26-

Y. M. c. A. The game was marked
by rough, aggressive play and a
fist-fight between two opposing
players broke out Just before the
end Of the game.
G. Harris Doc) White, former
pitcher Of the Chicago White Sox,
has bought the Dallas Club of the
Texas League for reported sum
Of $4,000. White will be the
teams business manager, while H.
Patterson, recent manager Of Pa
cific Coast League team, will direct
the players on the field.
Unless all signs fail, the Base
Ball Players Fraternity is doomed.
That it will not long continue, as
now constituted, seems assured, at
any rate. The issuance by Presi-
dent Fultz Of his strike ultimatum
marked the beginning Of the end
for his regime and that the organi-
Zation will be able to withstand
the pressure of organized base
balls leaders may well be doubted.

Menzel Plays Too Much.

NHENZEL had rather too much ten
4vA MS during the Winter last year,
but, after q good start in the Spring,
his mind was set on becoming a writer
instead Of q player. His place might
easily be taken by Henkel, the German
"second stringer," who has been play.
ing some fine games for his country.
He played three matches with Won
Cranm and on each occasion was
ahead by two sets to love. He seems
to lack that extra bit Of concentration
when ahead, but another seasons ex-
perience should enable him to over
come this failing.
There are many others who perhaps
could fn these last few places equally
well. but am going on the form shown
by those players who have been play
ing all the season against the leading
players of various countries. The
younger players of this country have
earned the right to inclusion, particu-
larly Parker, but their turn will come
later. Frank Parker has been knock
ing at the door for q long time. His
midseason performances. however, have
not always been Of the best. Here's
hoping he can improve them this
season.

BIG YEAR IN GOLF
SEEN FOR HILLTOP
Team Is Hopeful in League.
Visits CaroIinas, Florida
on Easter Jaunt.

~ RIMMING with winning spirit
* and hopeful Of big season
in the Eastern intercollegiate
- League, the Georgetown golf
team will make its annual southern
trip around Easter time, with four or
five matches scheduled with colleges
in Florida and the Carolinas.
Even though the Hoyas won't have
the services of such fine players as
Johnny Burke. Billy Shea and Charlie
Pettijohn on their varsity outfit this
year, they will have strong squad
of mashie wielders. It's a shame they
can't have these lads on their team
in 1887, but rules are rules and
varsity gold competition says that the
downtrodden freshman isn't eligible.
The H0ya team this year will
include Billy Dettweiler, who
hasn't played under the Blue
and Gray before.
Billy was a freshman last year, and
even though he looked longingly at
the big time stuff as played by the
rah-rah lads he still was a rookie, in
sofar as college competition was con-
cerned. But Billy will be eligible this
year and he won't be any pushover
when the Eastern league season starts,
nor when the national intercollegiate
gets under way at Oakmont, near
Pittsburgh, late in June

fit next Summer, there is no doubt
that his great heart will carry him

McGrath Is one of those players
whom no one seems to be able to
fathom. His freak backhand makes
him a difficult player to beat. Had
Ouist not won the Australian title last
winter, then undoubtedly he would
have been playing the second single
in the Davis Cup. He is a good player
and is always likely to effect an up
set" at any time.
The European form of both Menzel
and Boussus is well worthy OF note.
They always prove to be difficult op-
ponents, and any one who beats them
has to play a really good brand OF
tennis. They both have borne the
brunt of the attack on the Davis Cup
teams for their respective countries
and borne it well.

Should Be Big Star.

RUT Betty has been able to lick
- Helen consistently, and if she
keeps on licking her it means one OF
two things; that Helen won't get any
where in the bigtime of golf. or that
Mrs. Meckley must play badly in the
national tournaments.
With her tremendous length from
the tee Helen Dettweiler should be a
national star. Maybe she will be one
day soon, with the experience she is
getting in the South these days. But
notwithstanding the sock from the
tee, any winning golfer still has to
play iron shots and play them well.
Helen must learn to do that before
she will go anywhere in national
championships But as she is today
Helen Dettweiler and Marion Brown
seem to be the best two younger
golfers among the feminine players
around the Capital.

DETTWE|[ERN0W
HAS BEST CHANCE
Long-Hitting Congressional
Maid Getting Valuable
Experience in Dixie.
BY w. r. McCALLUM.

n YEVER has Washington woman
mi golfer gone anywhere in ma
" tional golf. Sure, we've had
4 some qualifiers for the nation
al championship in years gone by, and
In recent years, but the point is the
gals from the Capital haven't gone
along in the big championship as have
youngsters like Patty Berg, Marion
Miley and Beatrice Barrett.
Helen Dettweiler Of Congressional,
a very much improved golfer due to
her recent campaigning in tourna-
ments all over the land, and her golf
with Babe Didrikson and other stars,
may be the answer to the dreams OF
Washington women golfers that one
of their number may get somewhere
in the national picture.
Helen now is in the South sharp
ening up her game for the coming
women's tournaments around Miami,
Ormond and st. Augustine. Her best
stunt in big-time golf came last week
at Augusta, where she finished sixth
in a fine field in the titleholder's tour
ney, an affair which included Helen
Hicks, Patty Berg, Dorothy Kirby,
Babe Didrikson, Jane Cothran, Jean
Bauer and Kathryn Hemphill.

d. C. Title Escapes Her.

HELEN has done a IS at Congress
sional from the middle tees. That's
a score you can't sneeze at under any
conditions, for mems par for the course
is 70. Last year she also did "a
at Beaver Dam from the women's tees.
Both of these golf courses are lengthy
affairs, where the big hitting OF the
Dettweiler girl leaves her compara-
lively little to do with the irons. But
national championships are not played
on short golf courses. They are played
on long ones, where big hitting helps,
and where Helen, with her wallop, will
be at no disadvantage against the
others.
It's a strange commentary that
Helen, good as she is, hasn't been
able to win the District champion
ship, but it's a fact, nonetheless. She
has won the Maryland and twice has
been runner-up for the local title, but
she yet has to win the District crown.
One reason she hasn't been able to
crash through Is lack of steadmess
with the irons. Another is Betty P.
Meckley, a good golfing gal, but one
who hasn't yet reached any great
heights nationally.
