The Washington Eagles, equipped
with more heft, eight new players
and gaudy red, white and blue, star
studded uniforms, launch their East
ern Amateur Hockey League home
schedule Tuesday night at River
side Stadium when they face the
New York Rovers at $3.50 o'clock.
Having enjoyed amazing success
on the road, the Eagles this week
continue their heavy slate, meet
ing the Rovers today at New York,
here on Tuesday, the Orioles at Bal
timore on Wednesday. the Orioles
here on Friday and the Sea Gulls
at Atlantic City on Saturday.
Early season Eastern League SEN
sations, the Eagles are conceded an
excellent chance of capturing the
championship. Although weaker
offensive club, Washington may
boast by far the strongest defen-
sive unit in the loop.
Eagles Present New Line.
The polished Len Burrage, Ross
Knipfel and Johnny McTeer are
returning 4defensemen and have
been bolstered by Jimmy McCurry,
beefy youngster who teams with
Knipfel. Gordon Hemming, for
merly with the Jersey Skeeters, has
been an outstanding goalie with the
Eagles thus far In the campaign
and is expected to share net tend
Ing duties with Les Colvin shortly.

Rovers Radically Revised.
The Rovers, like the Eagles, have
been revised radically since last

the Eastern League for the past two
seasons, has entered professional
hockey and is one of the more
valued missing links in the New
York outfit.
Most Of the Rovers have served
their required 30-day stretch in mill

Smith Scores Second
Triumph in Dixie
Bowling Stakes
RuIIies Late as He Did
Two Years Ago to Turn
In TotoI of 2,028

Lightning struck again in ap-
proximately the same place when
Wayne (Hokie) Smith of Washing
ton last night triumphed over one
of the most brilliant national duck
pin fields ever assembled to score
his second victory in the Dixie
Sweepstakes.
To win two years ago he finished
the 15-game tournament with a
game of 1872. This identical score
he shot last night at Convention
Hall in the 18th to come from well
down the record list of 80 contest
ants to place among the leaders.
With the pressure on tight in the
final string, the Lucky Strikes as
sistant manager fired 143 which
gave him the victory by three pins
and a $500 slice of the purse of
81 300. His grand score was 2,028,
an average of 1853 for the IS games,
rolled in blocks of five at the Ar
eadia, Lucky Strike and Convention
Hall.
Miller Is Runner-Up.
Against Smiths finishing l43,
John Miller of Baltimore, second at
the end of IA games, rolled l29 to
wind up in the same notch with
2.O25.
Surprise of the tournament was FL
vim Shank of the Brookland team OF
the District League, better known,
however, at a horseshoe pitcher,
who finished third after leading
the pack from the sixth game to
the 18th. Only five pins behind
Smith at the payoff, Shank prob
ably would have won but for mar
rowly blown single-pin break in the
eighth frame of his final game. 1t
was his first big-money tournament.
Smiths sets were 642, SIT and
TIC; Miller's, 666. TIT and 642, and
Shank's, $50, 1876 and 628. Miller
collected $3.50 and Shank, 5000.
Tony Santini. Convention Hall

of the title he won last year with a
national record of 2,l06.
Out of the money was the No. l
duckpinner of the country, wash
ington's Astor Clarke, who rolled
1881. A go game in the second set
crimped him.
Tronsky Out of Money.
Connecticuts famous Nick from
sky led after the first block with 69l,
but landed with Clarke among the
also rams. Shank took the tourna-
ment lead with the rolling OF the
sixth game in which he shot l79.
His second block score of 1856 was
topped only by Baltimore's VIM
field Guerke, who chalked up 752
in the same round.
AL Neubert of Baltimore was
fourth with 1892 (sl50; RoSSlyns
