- ASTERN'S first outright cham
l. pionship in the public high foot
ball series since 1897 today was
- another step nearer realization
and, coupled with Gonzaga's 300 VIC
tory over Tech, Eastern's foremost
rival, the Lincoln Parkers at least are
accorded an even chance to grab the
laurels.
While scores are the poorest slide
rules of comparative strength. Eastern
points to its second consecutive series
triumph, 26-13 win over Wilson
and also draws several conclusions re-
garding Tech following yesterdays
contests.
Gonzaga trimmed Central, 60, in
the last quarter on an intercepted pass.
Eastern whipped Central by the same
score and yesterday Gonzaga trounced
Tech by three touchdowns. The Lin
coin Parkers are popped up over the
situation, but Coach Artie Boyd plotted
additional labor for his outfit, with par
ticular emphasis on pass defense.

Greatest Feat Last Year.

ToNY's most phenomenal major
league feat came in 1896, the
twilight Of his career. In q single
game against the Athletics on May %,
he pounded three homers, two with
the sacks full, and triple to drive in
IL runs and shatter numerous records.
This season Tony felt the end of
his playing career was near. With
young Joe Gordon on his way up from
the Yankees Newark farm, and Don
HeRner performing adequately As his
understudy, Tony was ready to call it
q career. He announced his retire.
ment as player late in the season,
but the world series saw him back at
the old stand, directing infield play
like master, hitting 400 and generally
taking the play away from younger
and more agile teammates.
Tony has sought a job as q manager
for the last three years. So when the
Yankees in their own words received
word from reliable source that you
OazzerD have q chance to sign with
q major league club as a coach or
assistant manager they let him go.

as 1t turned out, the championship.
What was the best shot you hit all
day?" we asked Betty, as she relaxed
in the club house following the tough
est golf match she has been in for
many a day, match in which she
only licked Marion Brown of Manor by
a single hole. "Um-m-m I hit some
pretty good ones, and a lot of bad
ones. But-wait a minute-sure-
that's easy. The best shot 1 hit
was that one to the seventeenth.
You know l could have missed it
badly. The ball lay on a down.
slope, on bare lie on the side of
the bunker and anything might have
happened But somehow 1 got it
up there within putting distance of
the hole"
As q matter Of fact she
knocked it 1 feet from the
cup and it won the title for
her.
You'll hear about the stymie shot
she negotiated on the eighteenth,
where she hoped a 2-footer over
Miss Browns ball for the needed
half, but that shot to the seventeenth
green won the match.
A ND what match 1t was. Betty
Meckley has been a seasoned cam
paigner for good many years around
Washington. She has won all the
titles that are to be won. including
the Middle Atlantic twice before, but
she never was in tougher match

~ OCKVILLE, Md, October l6.-
- According to the secretary,
Mrs. Bernard T. BroSius of
y Rockville, unusual interest is
being manifested in the annual field
trials next week of the Maryland Fox
Hunters Association and the most
successful meet yet sponsored by the
State wide organization is indicated.
The sport will begin Monday and
continue through Friday with the farm
of Charles H. Carrico near Congress
sional Country Club as headquarters
Inquiries from various points in Mary
land, Virginia, West Virginia, the
District of Columbia, Pennsylvania
and other places are interpreted as
meaning that many fine hounds will
compete in both the derby and all
age events, the total number being
estimated at approximately $50.
Many handsome trophies which are
on exhibition in a Rockville store win
dow, will be among the prizes awarded.
HOUNDS 10 be CAST Early.
THE hounds will be cast each morn
ing at 6:45 o'clock. The casting
grounds will be near the Carrico farm
the first day, but where the hounds
will be released the other days has
not been announced. As red foxes,
which know how to run, are said to
be plentiful in the county, fine sport
seems assured if favorable weather
prevails.
In connection with the trials, there
will be a bench show at headquarters
the second day for hounds participat-
ing in the trials, and an oyster roast,
also at headquarters, the afternoon Of
the final day. A horn-blowing con-
test also will be feature. The derby
will be run the first two days and the
all-age the other days. George A.
Wilson Of Lay Hill, Md, will be
master Of hounds.
