Hockey Mark Looks
Beyond Montreal,
Tied by Rangers
By the Associated Press.

1t doesn't look as though the
Montreal Canadiens will tie or break
the National Hockey League record
Of going undefeated In % consecu-
tive games set three years ago by
the Boston Bruins.
So far the Canadiens have gone
through IL games In a row without
finishing on the short end of the
score, but tipon perhaps that the
end Of their streak Is near came
last night when the last-place New
York Rangers held them to a % tie.
Since the Rangers had dropped
their first II starts of the season,
the fact they were able to tie the
league leaders was significant to
1927 fans at Madison Square Gar
den, in New York. The addition Of
big Bucko Mcdonald, former To-
ronto defenseman, strengthened the
Rangers, but it was apparent the
pressure Is beginning to tell on
Montreal.
The Chicago Blackhawks took over
second place by edging Boston, 5-4,
before 16.649 at Chicago in . wild
game marked by 21-minute second
period because of difficulty with the
time clock. One Of two goals by
Clint Smith came during what
amounted to borrowed time.
A turnout of 1896 at Detroit saw
the Redwings put on a third-period
outburst to beat the Toronto Maple
Leafs, Ga. Bill Jennings marker
in 1889 Of the last period proved
the winning one. Bud Bruneteau Of
Detroit and Babe Pratt of Toronto
each bagged two goals, one Of Pratt's
tying the score at 80 early in the
final period

Fists Fly When Bisons
Upset Hockey Bears
Py the Associated Press

Py the Associated Press.
A good, old-fashioned slugging bee
always peps up the spectators at a
hockey game. The 1889 who turned
out at Buffalo last night were
thrilled at the riotous goings on as
the Bisons upset the Hershey Bears
7 to 3, in the American League.
The trouble started in the first
period when Bob Dill OF Buffalo
slashed Billy Moe of Hershey. Dill
was given a major penalty. Near
the end Of the game Paul Waldner
Buffalo defenseman was cut on the
head. Frank Beisler of the Bisons
and Fred Hergert of the Bears
swung on each other and most OF
the other players joined in with
gusto
Eddie Shore, Buffalo manager
hoped down from the bench onto
the ice and joined the melee. After
the ice finally was cleared, Shore and
Moe went for each other behind the
players bench with some spectators
joining in. Referee Rabbit McVeigh
fined Shore 500 and Beisler $25.
Providence, the only other team
to beat Hershey so far, defeated
indianapolis, 5 to 2, before $500 at
Providence.

BY GEORGE HUBER.

Addy Bassin Is set for play tomor-
row in the Coolidge backfield as the
Colts face Wilson at Central Sta
dium in the high school football
championship playon and his readi-
ness for action definitely ups Cool
idge's chances Of winning its first
schoolboy gridiron title.
A speedy, swivel-hipped runner
and a pass catcher Of note, Bassin
has keynoted Coolidge's attack all
season. He was injured in the game
against Western 10 days ago, but
the rest since then has given his
torn shoulder muscles time to heal.
Basin is valuable not only as a
ball carrier but a decoy. Such is his
reputation that the opposition
spends too much time watching him
and as a consequence some of his
teammates have been permitted to
slip away on long gains or to catch
passes while Addy was being cov-
cred.
Dean . Ball Hawk, Too.
Other Coolidge threats which help
make that team a fayorite are John
Schullenbarger, one Of the best
schoolboy passers and kickers in the
city; Dick Bergman, steady plung-
ing back, and Dudley Dean, right
end who like Basin is a talented
pass catcher. He's the lad to whom
Schullenbarger tosses' most when
BaSsin is covered.
Mindful Of the fact that Wilson,
too, is a hungry team and after its
first football championship, Coach
Gil Conn of Coolidge is cautioning
his players against overconfidence
and is discounting reports Of injuries
to key players coming from Wilson.
He and his players were on hand
when Wilson defeated Tech last
week for the playoff spot and they
went away with the feeling that
they face a tough opponent.
That Tech game was Wilson's best
so far this season. Its fast-charging
line was big factor in that victory.
while in the backfield Stu Brown and
Russ Keith displayed more speed
than they had previously this season.
May Regain Godfrey.
Both will be in top shape again
for tomorrow's big game, and there's

Wills and Robinson
Promise Fast Rinq
Action Tonight

Frankie Wills, District middle
weight who several times has been
on the verge of winning national
recognition, has another chance to
step upward in the fight game to-
night when he faces Ernest (Cat)
Robinson in the top bout of the
Liberty A. c. program at Uline
Arena.
A 10-rounoer, 1t will match two
fast-punching men, and lively action
is promised also in several of the
supporting numbers. Wills and Rob-
inson can hold a fast pace through
out the 10-round distance with
Wills not hampered this time by
weight requirements as he was
against Bob Montgomery here dur
ing the summer. In that fight he
was down to IA pounds and slowed
considerably to lose after taking the
play from Montgomery for four fast
rounds.
Wills has gone undefeated since
the Montgomery affair, having twice
trimmed the tough Jerry Fiorello be-
fore beating George Red Doty two
weeks ago at Akron.
Robinson, too, brings a good rec
ord into tonight's engagement. He
recently chilled Winnie Vines at New
York, and before that shaded Joe
Agosto and drew against IzZy jan
naZzo. He's a combination boxer
puncher noted for speed. His only
previous Washington appearance
was two years ago when he scored
over Irwin Kay Kaplan on the Joe
Louis Buddy Baer card.

Godfrey, a good passer and kicker,

Coach Joe Carlo is glum about
his line, however. That has been
Wilson's salvation all season, but
right now Carlo reports Gordon
O'Neill, all-high guard, and Tom
Brewer. all-high tackle, on the ailing
list. These are the two key players
of the Wilson forward wall. Carlo
has gone so far as to list Tom Payne

ers in their places, although Coach
Conn Of Coolidge is wary of this
and wouldn't be surprised to see
both ONeill and Brewer in there
tomorrow for the full 40 minutes.
The expected absence of these
two, however, goes farther to make
Wilson the underdog.

SteaEles' Margin Decisive.
Unlike the 14-14 tie to which the
teams played November 7 "a game
the Redskins should have won) this
time the Steagles clearly outplayed
the 1912 champs. Not only was
Baugh, ace passer, again badly
rushed, but the Steagles outgained
their opponents on the ground, 13
first downs against and in yard
age. 297 to 58 Overall their ad-
vantage was 800 yards to 269. 1t
was one OF the worst pushings
around the Redskins have had, and
the gamblers again went to the
wailing wall. They had given as
much as IA points, or to l the
Redskins would win, doubtless on
the basis of the 21-7 victory by the
Skins over the Bears.
Although Baugh threw for the two
touchdowns scored by the Redskins,
choosing Ends Bob Masterson and
Joe Aguirre as his targets from the
and IL yard lines, Sammy had a
bad day. His usual bulletlike heaves
smack in the arms of receivers were
going over their heads or kicking up
the dust at their feet, or Sammy was
being so rushed he lost his accuracy
George Cafego, hero of the win over
the Bears, was in for only a few min
utes and took no major part in q
scoring play. In the fourth quar-
ter, with the Redskins trailing, 7-27

Frank Seno from the Steagle 49,
with Seno going to the Steagle II, a
play of 81 yards There Baugh was
inserted to. throw the touchdown
pass to Aguirre, who also kicked the
extra point.
Baugh now needs two touchdown
passes in two remaining league
games to tie Cecil Isbell's league rec
ord of "A made last year. But his

tax list? If l do not think it bon
afide, should notify the person
making the tender, at the time,
that l will not place the taxpay-
er'S name on the list, or should |
reject the tender?' Our Supreme
Court Of Appeals has held that
treasurer should embrace in
the treasurer's list the names of
only such persons as have PER-
SONALLY PAID their poll taxes.
In the case of TazeWell V. Her
man, 108 Va. 416, 423, 424. the
court said: "When all the provis
ions of article II of the Constitu-
ton, referred to above are con-
sidered together, as they should
be, in constituting section 38, in
the light of the evil which was
intended to be remedied (Suth-
erland on Stat. Constr, secs. 292,
30O, we think that it is clear
that it was intended that the
treasurer should embrace in the
list the names of only such per-
sons as had PERSONALLY paid
their poll taxes. If this be done,
then the list will accomplish the
purpose for which it was intend
ed; the courts and judges will
not be required to place upon the
list, in correcting it, the names Of
persons who are not entitled to
vote; and the judges Of election
will have before them evidence
which shows, PRIMA FACIE, at
least, who have paid their poll
taxes as required, as a prerequi-
site to their right to vote. This
construction, as argued, does
place a power in the hands Of
the treasurer which may be great
ly abused; but his power to say
WHEN the poll tax Of ANY vot-
er was paid is just as liable to
abuse as his power to say how
it was paid, yet there can be no
question that he has the former
power 8 q *;"In the light of the
foregoing, it is my opinion that
treasurer may exclude from
the treasurer's list the names Of
persons who have not personal
ly paid their capitation taxes.
Likewise our court of appeals in
Tilton V. Herman, 100, Va. sos,
507, sos, has defined what con-
stitutes "personal payment" as
follows: so, as would seem equal
ly clear where it appears that a
voter was the source Of the pay
ment of the poll taos required by
him, and paid them out of his
own estate or funds because he
wished to pay them, it is a per-
sonal payment by the voter,
whether the money was handed
by the voter to the treasurer, or
to one Of his deputies, or sent by
check drawn on bank in which
the drawer has funds to meet its
payment, or by the hand of the
taxpayers clerk or duly author
lied agent i $ It is further my
opinion therefore THAT WHERE
A CAPITATION TAX IS TEN
DERED UNDER SUCH CIRCUM
STANCES THAT THE TREAS
URER DOES NOT FEEL THAT
THE PERSON MAKING THE
TENDER is THE AUTHORIZE
ED AGENT of the taxpayer, and
that the payment is not being
made from the taxpayers funds
the treasurer is REQUIRED to

his. They wanted to stretch the
law to include uncles, aunts,

ent Commonwealth Attorney,
who is supposed to know the law
but who failed in this Particular
case, wrote Hon. Abram P. Sta
Piles, Attorney General of the
Commonwealth of Virginia, for
his opinion as to aunts, uncles,
cousins, ETC., and here is q quo
tation from the letter Gabe re-
ceived in reply:
In my opinion, the exception
in the statute should be limited
to the RELATIONSHIPS SPEC
IFIED THEREIN, including the
corresponding relationships by af
finity. While the statute is a
criminal one, making it unlawful
for anyone to pay the poll taxes
Of another under prescribed cir
cumstances, yet that part of the
statute on which you desire an
opinion constitutes an exception
and, when the purpose Of the
statute is considered. in my opin
ion this exception should be con-
strued so as to apply only to the
RELATIONSHIPS EXPRESSLY
NAMED. To place any other con-
struCtion on the exception would
result in and absurdity for, if
the exception were to be con-
strued as including any degree
