Relief for Quail
Main Problem
For Vikings
Entire Lineup Hitting
Well and Defensive
Pluy Is Efficient
By GEORGE HUBER.

Tech surprisingly has the inside
track after one week Of the high
school baseball championship series,
having won both of its games last
week with Roosevelt and Western as
the victims. There still are num-
Der of question marks on the Maroon
nine, but with that good start the
players are buckling down and Sc
riously are going after the title.
Pitching still is problem. Miles
Quail so far has done all the hurl-
ing. He was rated only $3.50 at the
start, having displayed only a medi-
um fast ball down the middle in
practice sessions. But apparently
opposing batters are finding him
puzzling. Roosevelt got only four
hits against him in the five innings
played, and Western picked up only
seven over the route.
Coach Bob Walker doesn't know
who will do Techs pitching if Quail
needs to be withdrawn. A possibility
is Jack Walsh, currently playing a
classy third base but who also can do
a little pitching. About the only
others who could heave in fast high
school company are Buck Nelson or
George Berkley.
Tech Strong At Plate.
Helping Tech tremendously is
hefty slugging all down the line.
The hits haven't been particularly
numerous but they have been timely
and several were extra base blows.
There were those two homers against
Roosevelt by Catcher Jack Harvill
that set the pace Efficient fielding,
particularly by Walsh, Second Base
man Gil Schmeltz and Left Fielder
Jack Ray helped to keep down
opposing scores.
What figures as perhaps Techs
toughest test so far comes up this
Thursday against Wilson. The Tigers
did lose to Roosevelt on Friday, but
they will be able to face Tech with
some good pitching from Stu Brown
or Jack Ogle and whether the Ma
rooms can stand up against their
kind of tossing is the big question.
II so, they can account themselves
real contenders for the champion
ship.
Five Games This Week.
Five games are listed this week
before schools close for the spring
vacation. Three on Tuesday have
Central at Eastern, Coolidge at Ana
costa and Wilson at Western. All
begin at o'clock except the Wilson,
Western tilt, set for 3:45. The other
game will be on Thursday between
Eastern and Coolidge at Coolidge.
This is a replay of their A tie
stopped by rain last week.
All are important at this early
stage of the race. Central and East
ern both have defeated Anacostia
and the winner on Tuesday jumps
into a first-place tie with Tech at
the top of the ladder.

keefer Cup Event April 27-28
Opens Women's Golf Season
Evening Star Tournament Will b Next.
Federal Players Apparently Styn,ied

planning to go through with two
major tournaments next summer,
according to the optimistic prospec-
tus set up by the golf promoters of
the Windy City. The Chicago Dis
trict Golf Association plans to hold
a Hale America tourney for war re-
lief and Red Cross benefit, and plans
are in the making for an all-Amer-
lea open and amateur tourney.
The main rub comes in getting
representative fields for these
events. Many Of the top pros are in
the service or in war jobs. Others
don't want travel. But SO far the
plans are proceeding, and both may
go through.

BY HUGH FULLERTON, Jr.,

Associated Press Sports Writer.
NEW YORK, April 19.-New
Jersey Senator Warren Barbour
hasn't asked our opinion about
his suggestion to revive the Joe
Louis-Billy Conn fight, but here
'tis-No! Last year we were
pretty much in favor of the thing
until the surrounding circum-
stances became a bit too gamey,
figuring it was an easy way to
raise dough for the Army Emer-
gency Relief and at the same
time provide long-range enter
tainment for soldiers and sailors
all over the world. Now the
AER no longer is sponsoring
sports events and we think there's
a big difference between letting
a couple of brand-new soldiers
take time out to fight and inter-
rupting the progress of two men
who have been in training nearly
a year. Besides, after seeing
Joe and Billy, it would be tough
to 60 on watching the kind of
fighters we've become used to
during the winter.

Number Of Beer
Parlors Reduced

The number of beer parlors in
Washington dropped from 1886 to
1905 by the end of 1912. the State
Liquor Board announced Friday.
The board issued "a bona fide
licenses to fraternal, veterans,
golf, yacht and social clubs, en-
titling them to serve hard liquor
to members. These clubs had a
membership of s0,972. The board
said As would-be clubs applied for
licenses last year and only one
more club was operating in 1912
than the preceding year.
A number of beer licenses
were cancelled when II was
found the original owners
Japs, Italians or other aliens
had used subterfuge In
legally transferring title to
Their business during the year.
Bulgarians, Hungarians and
Rumanians also were barred
since their countries are at
war with United States.
The board reported a serious
problem of control was caused by
the large influx of out-of-state de-
tense workers and soldiers I'M
familiar with state laws this re-
suited in an increase in drunken
ness, consumption Of hard liquor
in public and drinking by minors.
The board revealed 1t had aided
municipal and military authorities
in their drive against sex diseases
by threatening tn cancel licenses
nj POINTS where diseases might be
traced. More troublesome loca-
tons were required TO bar unac-
COMMANDED women.
