ELMER RIPLEY BACK
AS HILLTOP MENTOR
Fred Mesmer, Giving Full Time
to Law, Returns Basketball
Reins to Predecessor.

A Georgetown basket ball coach, who
was succeeded by one of his proteges
a decade ago. in turn had succeeded
that same pupil today. Those were
the singular circumstances under
which Elmer H. Ripley. G. US court
mentor during 1927-1929 before COACH
ing at Yale for the next seven years,
has signed a contract to handle the
Blue and Gray five for the 1883 and
1039-40 seasons.
For Ripley succeeds Freddy Mesmer,
one Of his stars Of a great quintet in
1929, who had assumed Rips"
position when he went to Yale. Mes
mer resigned about a month ago in
order to devote his full time to the
practice of law.
Ripley is known best perhaps, hav-
ing been member of the original
New York Celtics who used to play
American League games here at the
old Arcade with such other court
luminaries as Nat Holman, Ed Hickey,
Davy Blanks and Johnny Beckman.
Since leaving Yale, where he coached
two Eli teams to Eastern intercollegiate
championships few years ago. Ripley
has been associated with a sporting
goods company, although he took time
of last winter to head q court clinic
at Duke University.

Coach, Champion Washington Redskins.

suppose there never was football
coach who at sometime hadn't wished
he was far, far away from it all when
disobedietit or confused quarterback
cslled the wrong play. BY the same
token, there never was a f1rSt-rate
football team without a smart field

His playmates of the Washington
Redskins joshingly call him General"

when they refer to Riley Smith.

before he came to us. must have been,
to have had Riley Smith in there as
the general.
Smith is one Of the smartest and
most determined football players I
have known. He would be an asset to
almost any team if only for his block
ing, kicking and better-than-average
passing. but he is best of all an intell-
gent signal caller. There's a sound
and sometimes brilliant thought be-
hind every play ordered by him.
Riley Thrills His Coach.
He gave me a genuine thrill in the
game last winter with the Chicago
Bears in which the Redskins won the
national professional championship.
On frozen field. dotted with ice
patches. we figured the issue might lay
in solution Of the problem Of footing.
The Bears outpowered us in line and
backfield. We had no ball carriers to
match in power the 235-pound Nagur-
ski and 2l0-pound Manders and We
were outweighed appreciably In the
line.
Conditions favored the offensive
team. Its players had the advantage
of balanced starts. They knew where
they were to go. The defensive play
ers, forced to maneuver without pre-
meditation. were handicapped by the
uncertain footing
Our hopes lay in passes and speed
and We had great passer in Baugh
and an equally fine runner in Battles

Although the first Redskin scrim-

would entice goodly number of foot
ball fans to Ballston Stadium to watch
Washingtons professional champions

AS usual. morning and afternoon
workouts were scheduled today, but
Coach Ray Flaherty said that only
one practice session would be held
tomorrow. That will start at 1870
pm. and last about three hours.
With the squad as a whole in ex-
cellent condition, F1aherty is expect
ing no trouble when the actual con-
tact work starts Monday. but at the
same time he is not planning to scrim-
mage the Skins more than three times

1t tfckled Flaherty when he awoke
to the fact that he had 81 feet of
ends as targets for Slingin' Sammy
Baugh. That is the height which
would be attained if the six end can
didates in camp were placed on top
of each other, for none is less than
6 feet tall and one measures 6 feet
5 inches.
Harold Bradley, a lanky flankman
from Elon, is the tallest. but Charlie
Malone measures feet 4; Bill Moore,
the latest recruit from the University
OF North Carolina, is 6 feet 2; Bob
Masterson. Miami's captain last year.

Bob McChesney, both wearers of the

I'VE want fellows who can 70 up
and get them,' said Flaherty, land it
looks as if We got 'em. We're going
to throw passes against the All-Stars.
Any team that has Sammy Baugh
would be foolish If it didn't"
Next to pass practice, Flaherty is
concentrating on teaching the Skins

Mcmillan of Indiana, chosen to guide

Mr.. Hunt, the modern plunger, and

bookies today with highly significant
results. The play-by-play:
First race-Mr. Hunt staked his roll
on Millmore. Ace-Deuce stamped the

Apple. Winner-Millmore. A posse is
still out there looking for Oak Apple.
Second race-Mr. Hunt liked the
favorite, a fair-spoken black gelding
by the name Of Pharsalia. Lardner
knew something this time, and played
Swiftgold. Winner-Pharsalia. They
say that Swiftgold did not come home
because Of family troubles.
Fourth race-Mr. Hunt wagered a
trifling sum in four figures on Roman
Hero. Ace-Deuce Lardner splurged
with a deuce-note on Lumiere. Win

TRADITION IS NEAR
BAY SAILING TITLE
0utcIasses Flying Cloud
Before Latter Capsizes
in Series Opener.
BY MALCOLM LAMBORNE, JR.,
Staff CORRESPONDENT of The Star.

OXFORD, Md, August l3.-The
second day Of Eastern Shores biggest
all-sail gathering, the combined re-
gattas Of the Tired Avon Yacht Club
and the Chesapeake Bay Yacht Club
of here was under full sway this morn
ing, as all classes from little Riverton
prams to big racing sloops and
schooners took stock Of yesterdays
events.
The 35-year-old log canoe Tradition,
pride Of Tidewater Virginia, stood
ready to clinch her title to the cham
pionship of the Chesapeake Bay, after
taking the first race yesterday in a
grudge match with Marylands log
queen. the Flying Cloud, owned by
johnson Grymes of Easton. The Cloud
capsized near the halfway mark In
a course out in Choptank River, but
not until Tradition, skippered by Gar
land Miller of Norfolk, had proved her
superiority in going to windward.
Tradition in Lead. =.
The Cloud, leading until Benoni
Point, filled with water in a strong
pun OF fresh northwesterly, while
Ira adition was more than a mile ahead
and moving faster all the time. The
Eastern Shore entry still stood a
chance of taking the final race TODAY
as the breeze showed signs Of mod
Grating.
More than IS smaller boats raced
over an inside course of miles. with
colorful background of spectator
craft that were very much on the SAIL
ing side. Judge Prentice Edrineton,
international star boat champion from
washington, D. c.. led a fleet OF -
ooats to take the opening race of the
2O-foot class. His 8-year-old LADY
Avon far outclassed the division which
sails its second and third heats today
Surprise II Is Second.
An l8-boat fleet of comets was led
by a veteran sailor from Riverton,
N. j., Edward Merrill, in his shufly.
A local boat, Jim Speer's Surprise II,
was second. Werner Smythe of WASH
ington finished eighth, but the posi-
ton OF his Sassy Joo remained doubt
ful with a protest pending.
Twenty racing and cruising craft
made fast time in the 38-mile slide
down the bay from Gibson Island to
Oxford. The little yawl Kelpie of
William Henderson of Baltimore took
major honors, winning in class c and

numerous silversides. The time to
catch them, Harry opines, is before
they start breaking and when they are
feeding deep on individual fish.
That probably is correct, but all the
same it is heartbreaking sight to see
extremely large fish. such as congre-
gate at Point Patience. breaking all
around the boat chasing little fish,
while refusing your most choice offer
ings. August is a funny month, any
way; the fish are around, but to catch
them is another matter.
Big Game Notes.
B. D. Crowninshield of Marblehead,
Mass, set new United States record
for tuna on Tuesday, catching a TO-
pound fish in Ipswick Bay, of the coast
OF Massachusetts, This is 5 pounds
better than the previous mark made in
1888 by Francis Low of Woodmere,
Long Island.
Crowninshield hooked his fish at
7:45 pm, and it was two hours later
in the dark that he finally boated it.
Both Low and Crowninshield used
regulation tackle and 39-thread Ash
away to establish their records.
The. famous Catalina Tuna
Club Of Avalon, Calf, will offer
two trophies for the largest mar.
lin and tuna caught in Atlantic
waters on regulation heavy
tackle.
The trophies will remain the prop
erty OF the club, but will be kept in
the East, with the name OF each
years winner engraved on them. Tuna
Club regulation tackle consists of To-
ounce tip and 24-thread line. Mem
bers Of the club have taken marlin
up to 5S8 pounds and broadbill up to
573 on this tackle.
