tended to draw the best riders from
our local schools and colleges.
Of to a flying start last season, the
Arlington Hall meeting will enjoy
the advantages of prestige and ma
terial Improvements this season.
The outside course has been
rebuilt and improved, ringside
seating facilities added and the
general condition of the course
toned up.
Furthermore, Kleemann has cut out
the protracted judging OF student

riders who appear in the main show
will be those who have survived the
first test.

grounds. Dates, June 10 and 10.
To the Washington Horse Show As
ISOLATION we would like to address a
few remarks, none Of which has any
bearing on the fact that the show
profits are donated to excellent char-
ties, that the Junior League did q
magnificent job with It's concessions
etc.
These comments are for horse
show people, who will know
what We mean I'VE hope).
DEBTS.
ca The condition Of the ring OBJ
viously was abominable during the
show Of last Friday, Saturday and
Sunday.
(b) There were several fine hunter
stables showing horses here, but not
much new blood to catch the public
fancy. There were not enough small
owners, enough variety of exhibitors
In some classes, for example, there
would be 20 entries, with four owners
exhibiting 16 of the horses, the other
four owners showing one horse each
The more owners, the more owner
riders participating, the more friends
uncles, cousins, acquaintance will
turn out for a show.
Co The outside course was plainly
a joke. Where were the post and.
rails, the hitchcocks, the chicken
ooops, the gates? They should b
there, and all put up good and tight
(d Think we've said something
about working hunter classes. The,
should be limited to real huntins
horses, ridden by hunting people. Con.
formation horses should stay on thei]
own side Of the fence. Open Jumper!
the same (unless a horse qualified
by having been hunted at least 81,
times by the owner also wants to q
into other classes.
(e) Having inside course fences
placed nearer the center of the rim,
may speed up business of changing
from jumping to saddle horse classes
but it also makes turns too sharp 70
hunters and jumpers, prevents tn
former from going on at any pace a
all, makes spectators lose that sens
of proximity, contact that comes iron
being nearer the jumps.

Mako Deserves Credit,

T SAID before that Quist won the
1886 doubles almost single-handed.
That's a bit unjust. You should give
full share of credit to young Gene
Mako of America. Gene deserves an
assist on the play. He blew as high
as lighthouse in the f1nel set, and
the Stars and Stripes blew with him.
He was buSher. Bushers need time
to grow accustomed to the pressure
of big league play.
Ellsworth Vines, talking about the
Davis Cup the other day, said: III
Mako uses his head in there this year,
instead of just his arms and legs,
America can beat Australia and 60
on to win the cup
Mako is an erratic youth by ma
ture. In top form, he and Don Bulge
constitute as tough a doubles team
as any in the world Bulge Is the
sort of player who rises to pressure
He can sock those winning shots in q
crisis. So the fate of the team seems
to rest upon his partner, and I,guess
Mako, poor guy, realizes this without
any one having to shout it at him.
Our tycoons are Just shade
alarmed by the fact that Mercer
Beasley, the greatest detached thinker
in tennis, will be thinking for Amer
lea again this month The last time
Mr.. Beasley cerebrated in behalf
OF the Davis Cup team the team
went to pieces. It was like a toy
balloon filled with nitrogen. Mr..
Beasley's thinking was much too
strong for his vehicle,

Beasley Brain to Work Again.

0osCJ Ia Gill W VtOTh AkdlN.
RUT if frankie Parker plays on the
team this year, the Beasley era
mum will hum for old glory again,
willy-nilly. Mr.. Beasley does all Of
Frankie's thinking, sometimes by d.
rect contact and sometimes by re-
mote control.
1t is very impressive, when you see
Parker playing tennis, to realize that
while he is going through the mo-
lions out there on the court the
Beasley brain is purring like some
vast dynamo on the sidelines, think
ing Frank to victory.
The Davis Cup tycoons do not
know just what to do about it.
Parker seems the most likely bel
Tor the No. singles job against
Australia. He played well against
Japan, confounding many a critic
by making short work of the Japa-
nese act Yamagishi. He probably
has better tennis edge, at the
moment, than Bitsy Grant, although
Eddie Mcknight, who practiced with
Parker the other day, says that Frank
needs work.
Anyway, it will be a treat-fol
everybody but the tennis tycoons-tt
have Mr.. MERGERS brain work in cir.

NEW YORK, Dec 14-Capt. No- Ian, of the Grace Line vessel Cara bbbo, recently purchased by the Northland Transportation Co, has wired company officials he is put ting in at Charleston, S. C., for re- pairs.
 The master reported only enc of the, ships engines was working and the ship was proceeding at six knot speed.
 An earlier radio message had been an sos, saying the ships boilers had gone out of commission, $50 miles out of Charleston. The vessel left Laguayra, Venezuela, Wednes- day and is due in Brooklyn Thurs day.
 Delivery was to be made of the vessel to the Northland Transpor- tation Company in New York, Jan. IT, whence she will be taken to Seattle for alterations.

"FrOnt-Drive" Boats Easier
 On Operation

MANNHEIM, Germany, Dec. IA Trial runs here of a new river craft, with propellers in the bow instead of the stern, indicate thJ boat may revolutionize shipping on canals and small rivers.
 Steadily increasing speed of river and canal craft has been a source of constant worry to authorities in charge of the waterways.
 Narrow canals and rivers have suffered from fast craft because suction, created by waves formed by these boats, damage the en- bankments and river beds.
 So far no remedy had been found except reduction of speed, a step, however, which is not economical because only part of the boats en- zine power is utilized.
 The newly constructed vessel, measuring approximately 22O feet in length and driven by two Diesel engines of 135 horsepower each, has eliminated these difficulties. It goes through the water like a fish its constructors say.
 This is made possible, It is ex- plained, by pla cling two pro- pellers at ti2e bow, thereby securing pulling power instead of the us- ual puShinp mower
 Furthermore, the two propellers run in steel cylinders-the so-called Kortsche Duese-with an extended diameter at front. This construc- tion not only eliminates all wave Iormauon, put creates adqltlon4- pressure, thereby increasing the ef- fectiveness of the propellers, t was asserted.
 Trial trips conducted on the Neck ar Canal under critical eyes of the canal authorities proved the boat travelling at a speed of seven-and- a-half miles an hour-more than twice, the canal speed lmit-did not produce any waves.
