Hart points out that if base
ball can thus hold it's own in
the face of the many modern
diversions such as moving pic
lures, radio and automobiles
which bid for the students at
tention, actually the game is
more than holding its own.
The depression has had its
effect on receipts of all inter-
high sports. Charley Hart re-
minds you, explaining that un-
til about 10 years ago a pupil
paid 81 for an athletic ticket
which admitted him without
further charge to all interhigh
athletic contests during a given
school year.
At present the student pays
so cents for an athletic ticket
which merely entities him to buy
coupon tickets at a reduced rate.
What is needed, concludes
Principal Hart. is to find some
school activity to finance its
sports. which will take the place
of the plays and dances which
are no longer available as rev.
enue producing aids because of
the inroads of the radio and
movies.

none are suggesting be aban-
doned. Basketball may also be
added to that classification.
Mr.. Hart thinks that if base
ball could survive the early days
prior to 1916 when not a school
in Washington had an athletic
field, certainly it is no time to
abandon it when practically
every local institution has a
commodiouS enclosed playing
field.
In the early days, high school
baseball here was played under
most adverse conditions, points
out EaStern's principal.
Until Central Stadium was
built in 1916 the games as a
rule were played on unfenced
fields. When Business High won
its second baseball champion
ship in 1909 the entire series
was played on an unencloSed
diamond back of Lincoln Park
where the Thirteenth Street car
barns are now located.
Of all the major sports, base
ball brings out the largest num-
ber of candidates at the local
schools, says Mr.. Hart, adding
that the sport is a tie which
holds the old graduates to their
alma mater with quite as much
lure as football.
Even though the attendance
at interhigh baseball has never
been large compared to foot

is now as abundant and interest

Providence Nav
PIdyC. u. on
October IS
BY CHICK KENNY

Maryland yesterday completed
arrangements whereby it filled its
October IS date, left vacant when
st. Johns Of Annapolis Withdrew
from its contract, but it cost the
Terrapin athletic management its
November 5 assignment.
Western Maryland, originally
slated for the November date,
switched it's contract with Provi-
dence College in order to play
Maryland at College Park on the
pay date" The change, in a
way, benefited both teams, as
Notre Dame is booked with the
Navy on the same date in the
Oriole City. And there is no
denying, the Terp- Terror encounter
could be no match in drawing
power to the Irish-Middie fray.
SEEKS INDIANS
Athletic Director Geary "Swede"
Eppley of the Old Line institution
was closeted with Billy Gooch,
athletic director of William and
Mary last night with the idea of
interesting the Williamsburg, Va.
school for a game November S.
Gooch was in town yesterday with
the Indian baseball team which
played Maryland at College Park.
However William and Mary is
booked solidly from the second
Saturday in October to the end
of the season. Only the October
l date is open on the w. and M.
slate, and this also is due to a
cancellation by st. Johns. Gooch,
however, Is interested in a fray
with the Terps for 1899, but Mary
land has completed its schedule.
Incidentally, one new team will be
played by Maryland a year from
next fall. The new conner is Rut-
gers, with the playing site yet to
be decided upon.
According to the latest avail
able information cleaned from the
collegiate schedule-makerS, George
Washington is expected to clinch
a deal with a prominent inter
sectional team within the next two
weeks. The game, should it be
contracted, will be five-Star at
traction and give the Colonials
the best card in the neighborhood.
OLD RIVALRY
Catholic may jump into rela-
tions with Providence College to
fill its october Is date. now that
Western Maryland has been re-
leased from its contract with the
New England Jesuits on this date.
Providence has played C. U. sew
eral times in the past, and the
only reason the teams have failed
to meet in the last few years is
due to conflicting dates. The New
England eleven is starting the sea-
son under new regime, and the
game with the Rhode Islanders
should be boon to Catholic Uni
versity, due to the fact that a
great number of students and
alumni hail from that section of
the country and have been clam
orfng for a New England showing
ever since c.. U. and Holy Cross
called it quits. :
Under the circumstances, Berg
man, should he contact ProW-
dence - particularly when he
learns of the AL attraction George
Washington is about to sign on
this date.

Hemsley called for a pitch out
when Rick Ferrell was on base,
and the National catcher was
caught by a foot off first base
There was considerable debate
over this play, but from this
angle the decision was okay.
Hemsley made a wretched bunt
in the first half of the eleventh
and Rick Ferrell, seizing the op-
portunity, whipped a fine throw
to Travis, forcing Keltner, who
had singled.
Larry missed a triple on a line

it seemed as If Leonard might be

pitchers for weakness. It was the
sort Of game in which one slip
might have decided the issue. But
1t was Feller who was called upon
to fight off thrust after thrust,
for Bob's wildness constantly put
him on the defensive. Two double
plays and couple of strikeoutS
rescued Feller.
The Van Meter boy had a great
fast ball, as expected. 'TiS said
that he has lost some Of his smoke,
but that probably is all for the
best. His curve ball has more
power than the average pitchers
fast one. So fast was Feller that
in the seventh inning when Myer
tried to steal, Hemsley's throw was
so far ahead of Buddy that he
tried to get back to first, but was
retired with feet to spare.
Outpitching Feller yesterday
was a feat that will be told and
retold many time by the fans
who saw the game. And let it be
said that there was no resentment
to the action of Witt in removing
Feller. The fans applauded Bobby
as he walked across the field to-
ward the dressing room.
WRIGHT DELIVERS
AS Leonard held the bridge
head for the Nationals, another
second-string kid stepped up and
drove in the winning run. Taft
Wright, batting for Ferrell, flied
to Solters and Zeke Bonura got
home.
Bonura got a fluke hit in the
final inning on a grounder that
leaped over Lary's head as he was
set to field the ball. Then Stone
belted one, and Zuber made an
error on Travis bunt. That filled
the bases and brought up Wright.
The Nationals have purchased
Harry Kelley, right ha n d e d
pitcher, from the Athletics, and ne

shown very little this year, and
since he has been around for a
long time, we've got to reserve
Judgment on him. Maybe he will
help the Nationals. At his best,
he certainly should.
HARRIS FACES BAN
Bucky Harris may be suspended
for showing Eddie Rommell around
after the jumps had called Johnny
Stone out at first base on a very
close play. UmpireS do not like to
be showed around.
Mel Harder will pitch for the In
dianS this afternoon, with Monte
Weaver on the hill for Washington.
One of the most notable develop
mentS over the winter is in Earl
Averilps batting. Averill once was
a notorious pull hitter, who spe,
cialized in shooting for the right
field fence at League Park. He
has altered his style and now is
hitting where they pitch. He hit
a triple to left field on Tuesday
and singled to left yesterday. His
batting average flourishes as a
result Of the change.
Stone got the first hit off Feller,
a very scratchy affair down the
third-base line. If Keltner had
not allowed the ball to play him,
he might have retired Stone at
first.
The Nationals raved when Eddie
Rommel called out Myer in a dou-
BILE play in the fourth inning.

NEW YORK, Sept. 15.-Blonde
Helene Fortescue Reynolds and

society's most idyllic friendships,
are tearing each others treSses
each helping to reduce the
others marriage to smithereenS.
On tattle.taleS purportedly sup
Piled by Julie, Julian Louis Rey-
nolds, tobacco heir, informed the
Supreme Court of trysts which his
wife, Helene, purportedly had with
four men - Charles Macarthur,
playwright husba nd of Helen
Hayes: John A. McVickar, jr., of
the Raymond Whitcombe travel
service; Robert B. Smith, ST..
James q. H. socialite, and Cecil
Hackett, radio executive.
Reynolds said in his affidavit
that the names of the four were
revealed to him by Mrs. Higgins.
COURT TOLD NAMES
Reynolds passed the names on
to Supreme Court Justice William
r. Collins, before whom he is
defending himself against Helene's
application for $1,500 a month
temporary alimony pending trial
Of her suit for separation.
At the same time Julie Higgins,
mad-cap Woolwor tn heireSS,
launched a suit to dissolve her
marital ties to Insurance Broker
Thomas Higgins, whom she shooed
out of their apartment last spring.
Helene, her erstwhile pal. in
cenSed by jules mud singing,

affidavit that both the HigginSes
made undesirable company for her
husband and, what's more, that
Julie was just an old soak who
had "at least twice been confined
to Sanitariums for alcoholism"
So perished the beautiful friend

Lotharios whom Julie named used

Said Macarthur:
IT knew Mrs. Reynolds for two
years before her marriage. It
was q strictly friendly relation
ship, never on any sentimental
basis. It is ridiculous to say that
she was ever guilty of any i'm
propriety.'
Smith, blasting the notion he
had ever kissed Mrs. Reynolds
or suggested marriage, said it was
all a big miStake-that the closest
he ever came to her was at a cock
tail party. Hackett, equally irate,
said that when he took Mrs.
Reynolds on an automobile ride
to Trenton, N. j., it was "just a
business trip-that'S ALL"
McVickar said he never knew
Mrs. Reynolds until he picked her
up at the bottom of a staircase.

 There young Sutherland attracted the attention or his professors and one of them, Dr. Karl G. MaeSer, re- ferred to his essays as models of classic literature. After two years at the Provo school, Sutherland studied law at the University of Michigan. Before he was 21 he was admitted to practice before the Michigan su- prelne court. He soon returned home however, married Miss Rosamond Lee of Beaver City, Utah and began practicing law.

 OwIeS Girl First Arrested
 Miss Owens was arrested Monday after dropping chance remark to Mrs. Catherine Burning, a probation officer. She was asked about her financial status, and replied:
 If things don't get better there will have to be hold-up."
 Mrs. Burning considered the re- mark significant, and summoned her superior, Chief probation officer Joseph Murray, who in turn notified the police. The girl soon disclosed her friendship with Mrs. Stohl, and told police where to find her.
 Both girls were question: d throughout the night. Yesterday, police said, they confessed and re- enacted the Barhorst hold-up. They also told police of having robbed two filling stations, one in Ruther- ford, N. J., and the other in Lynd- hurst, N. J.
 Story They Told
 Acting captain Joseph Cocozza of the Newark detective staff said that the girls told the following story: They met in the reform school late in July. When they were re- leased about a month ago, Miss Owens insisted that Mrs. Stohl live with her, despite the fact that her family of nine was crowded into a four-room flat. Mrs. Stohl agreed, and moved in with the Owens family. The girls slept in the same bed, and lay awake nights planning crimes.
 Mrs. Stohl obtained a % caliber rifle with a sawed-off barrel and a shortened stock. On the night of December q, they stole an auto mobile and made several trips along the route over which Barhorst drove for the City Service Transit Com- pany. They picked out Barhorst's s mus, drove ahead of it and stopped Mrs. Stohl got out and signaled. When Barhorst stopped, she whip ped out the gun and cried: "This is stick-up.

operating costs. The president pointed out that many new build- ings cost more to operate than formerly was paid for rented quar- terS.
 Reduction Is Offset
 These proposed economies with reduction of $493, 100000 in unem- ployment relief spending next year and smaller slices generally through the federal structure are offset somewhat by increases, notably in national defense, crop loans and in- tereSt payments.
 In all deficit estimates, MT. Roose- welt left a loophole for reduction by de-sterilization of gold. The treasury holds $1,227 ,690,809 which could be used for current expenses or debt retirement at any time. In addition, the budget message report ed approximately $910,331, ,000 in cash in its working balance, off, setting liabilities.
 Revenues May Be Greater
 "There was every reason to expect that the revenues for the fiscal year 1889 would be greater than the eX- pected revenues for 1888 and that with a reduction in the cost of re- lief, the total expenditures for 1889 would greatly decline. That was the basis for our expectation of balanced budget for the fiscal year 1889.
 "The recent recession in business has changed that outlook. Today it is necessary to revise the estimates of revenues. They will be less than we had anticipated. They will, as far as we can tell, remain below our estimated necessary expenditures"
 Income tax, best business barom- eter, which is expected to raise $2,- 692, 100000 in this fiscal year. drops to $2,414, 100000 for the fiscal year 1889.
 Cost of Veterans Pensions
 Cost of veterans pensions and benefits which hit a high of $2,348,- 100000 in 1886 was down to $1,128,- 100000 in the fiscal year ended June 30, 1887, and will go to $573, 3,70O,0O0 this year and to $533, 100000 in the 1889 fiscal year-provided congress does not increase pensions or add additional widows or others to the pension rolls.
 Unemployment relief, including the civilian conservation corps, di- rect relief, which is being liquidat- ed, and WPA will cost $1,266, ,OOO, ,00O in the next fiscal year-if MT. Roosevelt's estimates are right compared with $1,759,0OO,OO0 in the current fiscal year and $2,466, ,800,- 900 in the 1887 fiscal year.

 A Japanese embassy spokesman said that traffic contracts and finan- cial status of the foreign concerns would not be hindered. The Japa- nese, he said, desired only to main- tain service.
 But soon afterward a spokesman admitted that Japanese censors had been stationed at radio offices. He added that they had not actually begun to censor dispatches and that he "hoped it would be unnecessary" for them to do SO.
