William H. Harman, vice president
of the Baldwin Locomotive Works

A stockholders meeting is sched-
uled for November 26, and Harman
asserted that "I intend to ask that
new capital be brought into the club.
Whether by the sale of more stock
or by some other method, I don't
care. I am very anxious that the
club reach a position where 1t can
pay off it's debts without having to
sell star players.

Sea Gull Game Open,
Hot Week End for
Hockey Eagles
Battles in River Vale,

Atlantic City PIoy
Special Dispatch to The Star.


ATLANTIC CITY, N j., Nov. 22-
The undefeated Washington Eagles,
who already have captured one-third
as many games on foreign rinks as
they won last year, risk their pure
slate tonight when they tangle with
the Atlantic City Sea Gulls here in
an Eastern Amateur Hockey League
engagement.
It will be busy week end for the
Eagles, who have whipped the Boston
Olympics twice and the Baltimore
Orioles once. Tomorrow night WASH
ington will play the Jersey Skeeters
at River Vale, N. j., and on Sunday
afternoon will invade Madison
Square Garden to meet the New
York Rovers.
Coach Redvers Mackenzie ex-
pressed hope his club will take two
of the three road games, feat which
would send the Eagles into their
opening home game against the
Rovers Tuesday night at Riverside
Stadium in undisputed possession Of
first place.
The matches carry special signifl-
canoe to Norm Burns, Washington
center who played with both Atlantic
City and River Vale last season, and
Gordon Heniming, who guarded the
frequently bombarded Skeeters' net
in the 1939-40 campaign.

Clarke Is Confident Pin Champion
|Bonnockburn Moves to Make
Its Course One of Best Here;-
Packed on Turkey Day

on many Sunday. 1t may have
been because there wasn't any foot
ball game around town to conflict,
but the facts are there nonetheless.
Two Aces Scored.
At Washington Cornelius H. (NeiD
Doherty took his trusty 6-iron in
hand and played so fine shot that
it wound up in the cup on this 140-
yard hole. 1t was Neil's first ace.
Playing with him were Joe Mason,
Guy Mckinney and j. Ferris.
At East Potomac Park Bill Briggs
tnot the Bill of Eastern Air Lines) !,
dragged a No. iron from his bag
and whacked out so true a shot on
the 195-yard third hole on Course G
that the ball went into the cup for
another ace. You don't often find
two aces in a single day, even on
the more crowded Sundays.
1t was that kind of Thanksgiving.
Literally thousands turned out at
ali the golf courses around town in
the bright sunshine. Columbia had
$50, Kenwood had $50, Congressional
had the same, Beaver Dam had a
big crowd (unestimated and Pappy
Leoffler on the public layouts had
the kind of crowd that caused
broad grin to spread across the face
of the gent who has promoted one of
the towns best shows-the Ice
Follies. All in all, there were a lot
of golf shots hit around Washing
ton on the second Roosevelt Thanks
giving.
At Manor A. L. Alderman and L.
L. Nettleton both won turkeys by
their prowess with driver and putter.
They held a special turkey day affair
at Manor in which Alderman scored
77-7-70 to tie with Nettleton, who
had 88-18-70.
Two matches were played in the
two-man team championship at
Woodmont, one Of which ended
even. This was the contest between
Club Champ Howard Nordlinger
and Leonard Jacobs and Victor Zeve
and Ed Melnicker.. They'll play
again this coming week end to see
which pair advances to the semi
| final.
In the other match DR.. Edward
Cafritz and Milton Gladstein licked
Ellis Edlowitz and Julius Winkel-
man, 4 and 8. In the next series of
matches Cabot Feldman and Sam
Wheeler will meet Cafritz and Glad
stein, while the Neutrality-suspicious.
VS.. Zeve-Melnicker match will de-
eide the other semi final round.
Early today Bob Barnett and Al
Houghton, the Chevy Chase and
Beaver Dam pros, showed off from
Washington by motor, heading for
Miami. where they'll wind up Mon
day. They plan to play at Ponte
Vedra, hard by Jacksonville, Sunday
afternoon. They won't be back until

Jenkins Choice Over
Ringman Who Once
FIatfened Him
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-Texas Lew
Jenkins, who's a stubborn kind of
guy. is going to try to prove tonight
that lightning can't strike twice In
the same place-and particularly on
his chin.
He puts his world lightweight
championship on the line in Madi-
son Square Garden against the bid
of the choir boy from Chicago and
Gary, Ind, Pete Lello, with hoped
for crowd of about $4,000.
Pete f1attened Lew in Chicago
about 20 months ago, and. regardless
of what Lew says about how it hap
pened, Pete really put the old Finger
on him. The referee counted the
full 10 that night, and could Just
as we'll has counted 80 or 40.
Since then the SWeetwater
swatter has won the 135-pound
throne, as recognized in New York,
California and various other spots,
and in recent weeks has maintained
that the fight with Lello was just
oAiC Va tllOSC IlillS0.
He explains he was hungry kid,
fresh out of a job as an Army horse
shoer at that time, that he arrived
in Chicago somewhat the worse for
wear and that he wasn't right. He's
betting Lello couldn't do it again
with tommy-gun in each hand.
To all of which, Lello says to give
him two slices of bread and he III
have everything needed for bologna
sandwich. His story is that he has
the whammy on jenkins and can
put the crusher on Lew any day
in the week.
In the present case. the betting
boys like Jenkins story more than
Lello's. They've installed the Texan
q 5-to-8 choice.

BY WALTER McCALLUM.

They are not fooling about making
the Bannockburn Golf and Country
Club course dt used to be the
Capital Club one of the best links
layouts around Washington.
Tomorrow night the stalwarts
who have remained with Capital
and Bannockburn through the try
ing days when the course was semi
public, and through the better days
when old Bannockburn resumed its
private club status, staged tourna-
ment, and seemed sure of better
future, will gather at the old club
house high on the hills above Glen
Echo, and start the ball rolling
toward a new and better Bannock-
burn. It's refreshing, in a way, to
write the old name again. That
monicker (CapitaD always did seem
an out-of- -the-way name for a club
that started in hard work and
financial stress, got out of the woods
and back in them again during the
depression, and finally emerged,
they say, as one of The stronger
clubs around town.
The stage is set tomorrow for what
may be, probably will be, the act
that will bring Bannockburn into a
country club family of strong clubs.
Of clubs with sound financial
status, and of clubs with a definite
future. So John J. SINNERS, the
secretary-treasurer, and the gent
who holds the purse strings thinks.
Will Choose Officers.
They are going to choose officers
for the old club tomorrow. Roy K.
Aten is president and Roy may be
retained in the post. That isn't yet
known. But whatever develops the
old place, one of the cradles of golf
around Washington, will remain.
"I have had quite few experts
play at Bannockburn within the last
few months" says SINNERS. "All
reported that it has a possibility Of
being one of the sportiest courses in
this vicinity. 1t is my intention to
get it into perfect shape as quickly
as possible"
What more could the old and loyal
members of Bannockburn ask?
So you thought holes in one were
the exclusive privilege of those gents
who play golf in the hot days of
summer? Or perhaps you thought
that when late November rolls
around you should rack up your golf
clubs and call it a season.
You wouldn't have thought so yes
terday had you happened to be at
any of the private courses or any
public course. Two holes in one
were made, a turkey tourney was
held. At another club a match play
tourney advanced toward its final
phase and more folks turned out for
a mashie frolic than have been out
