Wife Charges Her
Husband Gambled
With Her Money

Charges that her husband forced
her to work to support them and
in addition gambled away his
earnings and as much of hers as
he could appropriate, were includ-
ed in a divorce complaint filed
Wednesday by Mary Ellen Loomis
against Homer Alton Loomis.
She also alleged that he forced
her to operate a boarding and
rooming house and then wrongful
ly accused her of consorting with
the masculine roomers. At one
time, she alleged. she started a
restaurant and worked up a good
business until he came to work at
the place. He quarreled with her,
abused her, and once threatened
to kill her with a butcher knife he
brandished in her direction, she
alleged in her complaint.
As a result of his i'll treatment,
she said, she was forced to return
to the home of her parents in Nj
land. They were married at Red
ding Nov. 90, 1884 and separated
Sept. 2 1897.

Of play, though all are versatile. Bill
Reinhart, backfield coach, is a stickler
for fundamentals, and even the scat"
backs like Sampson and Richardson
must be well grounded on blocking
and tackling as well as running and
passing.
Kaufman's specialties are passing
and defensive work. Joey, commonly
thought Of as an offensive star, draws
the most difficult defensive assign
ments when he's in the game.
Mahan, hardest worker in camp this
year, seems assured of the quarter
back berth. He calls signals well,
blocks strongly and is fair runner.
He's the best student on the team and
credited by Reinhart as being the
smartest on the field. But OCCASION
ally Nicksick gets the call over Bruce.
Tihila is the blocking workhorse,
and he also is strong on defensive
play. But Merka, easily the best
kicker in the group, aspires to that
blocking halfback role.
Turner Sturdy at Full.
TURNER, the Oklahoma blond, who
has been tagged as great
money" player, again looms impor-
tantly in the fullback job. He's fast
and tough and a great pass receiver
But he blocks and tackles well enough
to play blocking halfback if Nowaskey
or Hogg should crowd him for his old
position.
Hogg and Sampson have shown the
greatest improvement. Vic's terrific
speed and sf1iftiness have amazed
even Reinhart at times. He weighs
only 160 and can't stand the pressure
Of an entire game, but for few min
utes he'll show the opposition almost
unbelievable speed.
Hogg's line smacking the last few
days made Nowaskey and Turner sit
up and take notice He just won't
be counted out of the running.
The other three sophs, Nicksick
Borden and Richardson, will move UP
with seasoning. Nick's' blocking and
running are beautiful just now, while
he is second only to Mahan as field
general.
Borden and Richardson are a bit
hidden by the talents of kaufman
and Sampson, all four playing the
same position. But Elmore has
triple-threat possibilities and Billy's
running and passing, despite frequent
injuries, have warranted Reinhart's
praise.

r YNPUBLICIZED and tn e r
whereabouts for the past two
weeks virtually unknown, 81
- American University foot ball
players returned to Washington yes
terday after one of the most successful
training periods in the history of the
school. For your enlightenment, the
Eagles have been at the Summer noun
tain camp Of their new coach, Gus
Welsh, near Bedford, Va.
With only six veterans as nucleus,
WEIGH hardly has hopes for banner
season, yet he is looking forward to
the first game on October with keen
delight, thinking he has a shifty, fast
and well-balanced team. Because
Welch tolerates no indifference, the
spirit of the squad has been marked
by earnestness and determination to
improve.
Stink, Shoop, Maize, Carlo, Bartlett
and Howard are the only veterans re-
turning, but Welch has been more than
pleased with the showing of the new
comers Hall, Jablonsky, Bower, Nc
Clure, Adams, Davido and Hans
borough. Jablonsky, in particular,
has pleased the Indian coach in his
bid for the regular fullback post.
The Eagles will open their season

Silver Spring Plans Financial
Protection Against In
jury in Game.

T IFE insurance may be used by
one group of sandlot foot ball
sponsors this Fall as an induce
- ment TO wary prospects to enlist
under their banner. Such step has
been made in the professional ranks,
but the Silver Spring Merchants have
set a precedent among the boys who
play for fun.
An insurance company has agreed
tentatively to pay off on policies, pro-
vided injuries are met with in actual
combat.
Great Returns Unlikely.
THE risk Of injury in game Of foot
ball probably is considered rather
great with most reliable concerns and,
therefore, very likely would demand
quite stable premiums. Furthermore,
it stands to reason that most groups
of sponsors would not shoulder too
large financial obligation to insure
the safety of their collective mother
in-laws. much less a gang of sandlot
foot ball toughies.
SO it boils down to the probability
that even should one receive the princi-
pie after an injury the proceeds
wouldn't provide adequately for hurt
more serious than mussed-up head
Of hair. But it sounds good on the
face of it and should sponsors in gen.
eral decide to make the proceeds at
tractive enough, We probably will see
plenty bang-up foot ball this season.
Claim to Possess Class.
INSURED or uninsured, the Mary
landers claim to have a classy
eleven in prospect for sandlot fans.
They boast line averaging 200
pounds or more and backfield equally
as momentous. including such familiar
names as Max Brinkman, former
Catholic University athlete; Tiny
Leizar, ex-all-prepman at Landon:
Walt Osborne, who played freshman
ball at Maryland several years ago;
Buddy Hughes, formerly at Roosevelt;
Raymond Boyle and others with good
athletic regulations.
Enlarging on their schedule this
year, they expect to make a trip
through North Carolina to meet sew
eral Tarheel aggregations, according tc
plans outlined by zeke Linkens, the
teams playing coach. Interested In
new and capable talent for their un-
limited eleven, they also are attempting
to build junior 135-pound team. The
team will play its home games or
Bulls Field and issues challenge tc

NEW YORK, September 18.-
Members of the Eastern Inter-

citation received a packet of dis
tressing news at their annual rules
Interpretation meeting here today.
Each of them had in his coat
pocket a fresh letter from Walter
Okeson, head man of the associa-
ton, advising him to go into strict
training if he expected to work
any Eastern college games this
Fall.
Each arbiter, no matter how
sound of wind and limb he might
look from the stadium seats, will
have to convince Okeson in writ.
ing that he is in condition to
stand the gaff before he will be
permitted to officiate.
He must produce a physicians
certificate attesting the perfection
Of his eyesight, his hearing and
his general condition. Okeson
borrowed the idea from Southern
group.
