Preps for Evening Star Meet

yard and the mile. Quantico also
will have a mile relay team which
should give good account OF itself.
Another former Annapolis star,
Bill Kash, is prepping for the meet,
working out with the Georgetown
cross-country team.
Ensign Kash, stationed at the
Bureau of Ships and Docks, is
pointing either for the 600 or the
1,000-yard. His best marks in these
events were made in the National
AAU championships when he did
the 600 in 1885, only 10th of
a second slower than the time made
here last January by Herb McKen-
ley when he barely nosed out Royce
Crimrnin of Brown in one of the
greatest races of the Of the eve
ming, and 2:14 for the 1,000-yard.
Bill last winter won the South At
lantic 500 at Baltimore, that dis
tance being his best at present.
Helped by Hardell.
He was high in his praise of
the help being given him by Hap
Hardell, Georgetown coach, and one
of the committee for The Evening
Star Games.
Tickets for the meet are on sale
at the business counter of The
Evening Star Building or they may
be obtained by mail by writing to
The Evening Star Games, Room
724, The Evening Star Building. The
prices are 81 and SO for boxes, 50
for balcony and 81 for general ad-
missions. Because Of the limited
seating at the Armory, only 1925
being permitted, it will be well to
make reservations early.

His marks of 1874 in the 110-yard

West and Jackson
Promise Fiery Bout
For District Title

Promoter Goldie Ahearn turns to
4 hot hometown rivalry for his box
ing attraction at Uline Arena to-
night, presenting Stonewall Jackson
and Sonny Boy West In 12-round-
er for the District lightweight cham
pionship. This is a return OF a good
fight held last spring in Baltimore
in which Jackson won the decision.
West, a fast and clever boxer, was
a big favorite in their first meeting,
but Jackson's victory then and his
subsequent winning streak make 1t
look to be an even affair for tonight.
Both fighters have had parallel
rises through the preliminaries to
main events here in the last year
and half. West is clever counter
puncher and also something of a
solid hitter for light man. He has
lost only three fights. Two of those
setbacks already have been avenged
by return wins against Harry Las
Sain and Jimmy McAllister, leaving
only victory against Jackson to-
night needed to make everything
square.
Jackson isn't as skillful as West,
but he has a world of confidence
and color. He makes up the lack
OF art with a free-swinging and
somewhat rnorthodox attack. He
seems to figure that he can knock
out the other fellow before he can
get knocked out himself. He is a
bit wild at times and after his last
fight at Turner's Arena was warned
By the District Boxing Commission
to keep his blows under control.
A championship belt goes to to-
nights winner, and there also is the
possibility of non-title match
against Lightweight Champ Ike
Williams next month.
Tonight's flve-round semidnal is
q middleweight fuss between Julian
keene and Art Bethea, also WASH
tngton boys. Other supporting num-
bers are Ben Harrison against DON
Wagner, heavyweight; Frank Bell
against Ray Adanges, lightweights.
and Sluggr White against Puggy
Lyons, iightweights. Lyons is a
D. G. colored fighter who has been
doing very well lately and soon

John Miles is a young man who
loves old boats. The older they
are the more this State Depart
ment employe admires them.
That explains his affection for
his 50-year-old schooner, Elsie
M. Riechert, which sails a week
from today from her Maine ave-
nue. moorlng, bound for summer
station at Annapolis.
Fed up with modern racing
machines and what he calls
"spit-and-polish" yachting, Miles
came here in 1910 from Chicago,
where he had done considerable
yacht racing. He began search
for an old and comfortable boat,
yet with smart lines.
In the files of the Smithsonian
Institution. he found what he
wanted. 1t was the plans of an
old Delaware Bay schooner
named Elsie M. Reichert. One
of the Smithsonian people told
him where to look for Elsie
somewhere around Galesville on
West River. A few years earlier
Eric Stineline of Galesville had
salvaged Elsie from a Delaware
mud fiat and was converting her
into a pleasure boat.
But before Miles could buy her
the ex-oyster boat was off to the
war as a submarine patrol vessel.
She served nearly two years off
the Virginia Capes. When the
Nad sub menace had subsidized,
Elsie came back to West River in
1943. Miles became her owner
that year.
Ever since, Miles has been
working on Elsie with the objec-
tive of making her the finest old
timer a1oat. He believes his job
will be dones before the end Of
this year.
In what was once her cargo
hold are an attractive library
salon with berths for four. Dur
ing the last winter, Miles used
countless scraper blades to bring
out her original deck timbers.
The after cabin has such refine
ments as a CRATE fireplace. Be-
