An opportunity to launch the new
year with a winning percentage will
await the Washington Eagles TO-
morrow night in their Eastern ANA
teur Hockey League game with the
Jersey Skeeters at Riverside Sta
dium.
If the Eagles defeat the Skeeters
they will start the 1912 campaign
with a record of II victories. 10 de-
feats and two ties. Following to-
morrow nights game the Eagles will
be inactive until January 2, when
they entertain the New York
Rovers.
Meanwhile it has been learned
that Coach Red Dutton of the
Brooklyn Americans of the National
League has expressed interest in
both Paul Corteau, Washington's
leading scorer, and Rolly McLena-
han, bruising defenseman.
1t is believed Dutton will bid for
both players next season. The
Americans already hold strings on
three of the Eagles finest prospects
in Kenny Ullyot, Keith Allen and
Fred Weaver. all of whom played

Two Washingtonians
Leaders in Senior
Golf Association
Tuckermon and Clifford
Given Leading Roles
In National Body

Two prominent Washington golf
ers have leading roles in the affairs
of the United States Seniors Golf
Association this year and will be in
the forefront of the organizationis s
affairs next year.
Walter R. Tuckerman. golf chair
man at the Burning Tree Club. a
national amateur championship
semi -fnalist in 1910. is the second
vice president of the association
and a real contender for the ma
tional senior title. Col. Edward
Clifford of Chevy Chase, former
Assistant Secretary of the Treas
ury, is a member of the Tournament
Committee.
Washington has 16 men on the
membership list of The national
senior association. most of whom
play in the championship tourney
held annually in June at the
Apawamis Club of Rye, New York.
Growing interest in senior golf
affairs has been marked over the last
few years by resumption Of senior
activities at the Chevy Chase Club
and pending formation of a senior
golf body at Columbia. Two senior
cups have been presented by Roy H
Pickford. one for the senior golfers
Of Washington, and one for the
seniors of the Columbia club. Both
will be in competition for the first
time next year.
Congressional does not have a
senior golf organization, but John F
McCarron, tough hombre on any
ones links tourney, has won the
championship for the last four years
At Kenwood Simeon T. Price. a good
left-hander, has been the top senior
for several years.
"Once a senior, always a senior
sometimes venerable but never
aged" runs the slogan of the United
States Seniors Golf Association. To-
day the organization is one of the
most prosperous links bodies in the
land. Present president is John G
Jackson of New York. who served
two terms as president of the parent
body of them all, the United State.

easily because OF this balance, ana
1t enables him to change directions
at top speed"
Despite his fiat feet and the
broken jaw he suffered in the sea-
sons second game. he wound up the
campaign as the Nations leading
ball-carrier. His l,103 yards by
rushing was only 40 short Of the
national record set by Whizzer White
of Colorado, and he personally out
gained 8 Of Georgia's 10 opponents.
Coach Frank Thomas of Alabama
the only team to beat Georgia
this year-says Sinkwich is the fast
est back in the country for the first
five yards. That lightning takeoff
gets him through small holes. and
makes blocking easier for the line
men who must control the opposi-
ton. The power in his legs helps
him brush by or bowl over foes who
are not set for his quick drive.
Statistics-Checkers find Sinkwich
scored only one long-distance touch
down. 69-yard run against Dart
mouth when Safety Man Tom
Douglas made the mistake Of coming
up too fast. Sinkwich broke sharply
to his right and went around him.
Wrote one press box observer: Sink
wich dipped the dirt with his hip
pocket, he cut so sharply"
Georgia coaches say he doesn't
get the most out of his blocking, be-
cause unless the guards and other
backs move out like scared rabbits,
they clog up Sinky's path. So
Georgia's offense has been styled
to prevent it, except on rare occa-
sions. Often he won't wait for holes
to open up. Leaving his inter-
ference, he bobs through the first
opening that shows daylight.

The Philadelphia Rockets, who
will play the Washington Lions at
Uline Arena on Sunday night. are
nestled in the American Hockey
League cellar. but that status may
be a trif1e misleading.
The Philadelphia club, newly
manned and named following the
New York Rangers decision to dis
band the youthful Ramblers club
that represented Philadelphia last
season. is only three points behind
the Providence Reds despite having
played only 19 games, 4 less than
the Lions.

Those four unplayed games repre-
sent a potential eight points to the
Rockets. who could wedge their
way into a more refreshing spot
with anything resembling a brief
winning streak. With two points for
a victory and one for a tie, the
Rockets need only to split even in
those four games. for instance, to
move ahead of the Reds.
Philadelphia owns an assorted
group of hockey talent. Allie Moore

captain of the Rockets. while other
former Bears on the team are Rolly

Moe. Rookie Left Winger Charley

the lower is a white, and they are
going to mean more than a good

darken them.
Great Co. operation Is Needed.
Most sportsmen try to improve
the sport in which their interest and
money are invested, and here and
there their efforts are fruitful in
stocking quail and rabbits in small
areas of personal property.
In other areas sportsmen have CO.
operated with farmers to obtain
better shooting. One buys and
stocks birds, the other protects by
sowing suitable feed patches.
Every State has an ambitious pro-
gram for lettering hunting and in
large sections have improved shoot
ing beyond belief.
However, the only successful idea
appears to be the seemingly easy
matter of taking nature In hand and
producing crops of wild birds and
game.
Only the biologist In the field
knows of the pitfalls nature places
in games path. He can observe a
section. recommend certain plant
ings of food and stockings of birds
and hope for the best.
All of which proves that the re-
turn of swampland and marginal
lands to its natural condition is the
best investment for sportsmen's dol
lars. 1t will be until the 100000, 900
acres taken from wildlife during the
past war is again flooded and
grown up.
Funds obtained through the Pitt
man Robertson Act have accomp-
lished much toward this end. the

Service has helped greatly, but the

It has been estimated conserva-
lively that hunters cripple more
than 100000 waterfowl each year
nearly fifth of the total bag.
If 1t were possible to send those
cripples back to the nesting grounds
In the spring the natural increase
would nearly fill the hunters bag
the following fall.
All cripples aren't due to long
range shooting. Some are made by
poor shots. but there are others who
deliberately will shoot when they
know the bird is out of range.
Rookie Hunters Should Practice.
Decoys properly set out are an
excellent gauge for killing range.
If more hunters would shoot within
range we would have many fewer
cripples. And If the occasional
hunter would spend an afternoon or
two at practice before going hunting
other birds would be saved.
Few hunters use dogs in shooting
waterfowl. Many do not know it is
possible. but they never have seen
a Chesapeake. A grand all-around
hunting dog that appears to be COM
ing into greater favor every year
For the duck hunter who takes his
sport seriously the retriever would
be a most attractive addition. and
through their use more cripples
could be saved.
Anglers who fish the Chesapeake
from Bloody Point to Sharps Island
know what it is to feel their way
home under the western shore on q
dark night. Until the past week
there was no lighted buoy on this
side between Thomas Point and
Cove Point, but now there are
