District Padd|ers Tied
For Leadership Of
|ntercity Loop

Washington's table tennis team
was tied for the leadership of the
Intercity League with Philadelphia
today as a result of a 14-7 victory
over the hitherto undisputed Quaker
City pace-setters yesterday. The
loss, Philadelphia's first In eight
matches, left both teams with a
IL record.
Stanley Fields, District champion,
accounted for three victories in as
many matches, while Elias Schuman
won two Of his three contests. The
match, played at the Chevy Chase
Ice Palace courts, found the visi-
tors weakened by the absence of
Izzy Bells, their third nationally
ranking player.
Along with Jane stauffer, local
women's champion, Fields gave
Washington second place in a tri-
city tournament in Baltimore Satur-
day evening. Baltimore's four points
gave 1t the first.leg on a new trophy
Washington scoring three and Phila-
delphia two. Fields easily disposed
of Nanny Moskowitz and j. Kan
ming, the No. l players of Baltimore
and Philadelphia, but Miss Stauf1er
lost to Mrs. william Wright, Phila-
delphias' best woman player, by the
close scores OF 21-19, 1921, 21-19.

Shea Gets 10 Work

Form Of z Years Ago

"It's funny how a fellow can dc
everything right one year, and then
the next year, when he ought to be
better, he takes a series of nckings
and can't seem to win"
Billy Shea, the tall Georgetown
Junior, who cleaned up everything
in sight in sectional golf hereabouts
in 1887 and Topped to an also-ran
in 1898, wasn't moaning about his
1888 campaign. At 20 years of age
it's a little early to think you are
a has-been in golf. And Billy is far
from that. The Congressional
youngster with the smooth swing
has just begun to win.
Billy sat on top of the links heap
hereabouts in 1887, when he had
just turned 18, and seemed to have
ahead of him a flock of years as
the king of amateur golf in this
sector.
OFF Form Last Year.
Yet last year he dropped both his
District and Mid-Atlantic cham
pionships in the first round of both
Journeys. He didn't win anything
in 1888 and closed out the year by
failing to qualify for the national
amateur championship. Billy doesn't
quite understand it, but he's going
to correct it this year.
Maybe thought I could gel

Maybe + thought that swing woulc

In the last 10 days complete

Idle today, the Mats will collide
with st. Louis here tomorrow, with
Jimmy De Shong slated to toll for
Washington. Dutch Leonard will
seek his third successive triumph
against the Browns on Wednesday.
The superb tossing of Krakauskas

Pete Appleton in the eighth inning
after the Mats had snatched 81

of singles, walk, sacrifice and
wild pitch.
Carrasquel Again Effective.
Appleton Immediately proceeded to
pitch the Nationals into an unen-
viable predicament. Before Alejan-
dro Carrasquel was rushed to his
rescue Pete had walked run over
on four bases on balls. Carrasquel
entered with two out and the bases

and piled Up a IL lead in the f irst

Smith pounded out brace of triples
while Jones contributed four hits
to the cause and Randolph three.
Sampson, Norfolk second base

Ahearn's sudden safari was or

to come here, but is too big for the
Greek boy. Two alternatives are
the veteran, Ken Overlin, and
Fritzie Zivic, another vet with a
passing average. 1t may be one OF
them yet.
Woods, according to Ahearn, Is
the best middleweight in the world
today. Goldie VOWS he, could take
Krieger, Hostak and Apostoli in the
same ring and rap their heads to-

AL Mancini, who meets Pete
Scalzo this week, also is above ex-
pectations In Ahearn's opinion, and
he looks for another upset in this
direction.
He's picking Lew Feldman over
Lou Gevinson Thursday night at
Baltimore. Goldie saw Feldman
toll at Stillman's against q squad
of southpaws, and reports that the
old boy made them look silly.
But Ahearn's trip was not en-

Supremacy in East

Princeton, Massachusetts, Tech and
Syracuse. That accounts for all the
major" varsity eights in the East
and should indicate the strongest.
After whipping stubborn Prince
ton eight on the Severn's rough
waters in its opener, Navy added to
its prestige by breezing home a
length and a half in front of Co.
lumbia on the smooth Harlem. Co.
lumbia, boating q number of veterans
from the crew that was fourth at
Poughkeepsie last June, was rated
as a potentially strong eight, but it
never could catch up. The Mid
shipmen never raised their beat
above 80 while rowing the mile and
three-quarters in Tab, less than 2
seconds slower than the course rec
ord.
Cornelps Victory Indecisive.
Cornell and Syracuse had to shift

closing sprint to win by 8 feet, but
1t was hardly q real test for either

went along for the ride.

4-length victory over Rutgers at the
Henley distance of a mile and five

racing season would come close to
being duplicate of last season, with
Navy and Harvard sharing the
honors. But three regattas this
week should make 1t clear whether
such an indecisive duel is in prospect.
Those two were on top in 1888,
with the Crimson edging out Navy

margin and each winning its climac-
tic 4-mile test, Navy at Poughkeepsie
and Harvard against Yale at New
London.
Middies Appear Best.
So far this year, Navy appears the
best. The Midshipmen have con-
quered two fairly strong rivals,
Princeton and Columbia, without
much trouble. Harvars has had
only one race, but showed all kinds
of strength in breezing home ahead
of Rutgers, NJ I. T. and Boston Uni
versity.

gattas last Saturday were Cornell
