NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 17.-Mud-
ding OF the Rose Bowl picture by
Washington States defeat of STAN
ford Saturday has caused almost a
complete Frightening of the Sugar
Bowl outlook-especially in the di-
rection of the Duke Blue Devils.
It's been known that Duke leaned
toward the Rose Bowl, with the pres
tige of antiquity and also greater
cash return. But if the question
involves prestige, the local crowd
now Is In a fine bargaining position
They might suggest that there
isn't much glory in facing a team
that has been beaten twice, as have
all Pacific Coast Conference teams,
one of which plays host in the Rose
Bowl
As for the cash-the Sugar Bowl
ers long have contended their $75 900
would be more to a Southern team
than the Rose Bowls 100000 or so
because of the added expense of
travelling to California. And may

might get a lot more for the right

TOP AMATEUR WOULD BE
 JUST ANOTHER PRO GOLFER

Getting back to Ward he is wise In remaining a lily white.
 Although he Is the top amateur, Ward couldn't expect any more good fortune than any of 50 pro fessonal sharpshooters. An intelligent chap, Ward should make good on his own steam in business, and the fact that he Is national amateur champion doesn't exactly retard him.
 Grade amateurs in an Open field create interest, which was at Its peak in the days of Bobby Jones. Now none of the professionals Is crazy to another amateur win with the monotonous regularity of Jones but they realize is healthy for the game when one breaks through occasionally, as Johnny Goodman did in the National Open of SS
 The professionals are pleased that long-htting Bud Ward Is to remain one threat with an asterisk pre- ceding his name.

Washington Gas Net
For 1910 Equals
S2.52 a Share
Annual Report Shows
Same Result as in
Previous Year

Net earnings of the Washington
Gas Light Co. in 1910 amounted to
$2.52 per share on the 435, shares
OF common stock outstanding, ex-
actly the same as net earnings in
1889, according to the annual report
being distributed today.
Gross operating revenues of the
system amounted to $l0,448,876, an
increase Of nearly 16 per cent over
1899. Increases in expenses, includ-
ing 80 per cent rise in taxes, alb
sorbed large part of the increased
revenues. Net operating income was
s2,o63,7o3 against s2,o21 1888 a year
ago.
The report presents a striking rec
ord of the remarkable growth that
has continued in Washington and
vicinity. Off1cials consider that it
already shows the need for the in
crease In capitalization which the
company proposed in January and
which is now before the stockholders
for consideration.
Approximately $4,000 additional
meters were added to the system in
1910 to serve new customers. Total
expenditures during the past year
for extensions and improvements to
the production plants, distribution
system and other facilities of the
system were nearly 100000.
The report brings out the fact that
despite the constantly growing in
vestment, sharp increases in taxes
and larger amounts set aside for
depreciation reserve, the net earn
ings available for common stock
dividends and surplus are being well
maintained.
