PLACE IN BIG MEET
Manager Gurry Has Entries of
St. Alban, Central, Tome,
and Baltimore Poly.
QUARTER ATTRACTS MANY
Preparatory. Basketball League
Wiy Continue to Operate
With But Three Teams.
, By BRYAN MORSE.
The best of the schoolboy sprinters
in this section of the country will
await Starter McHugh's gun in the
Georgetown University indoor games
at Convention Hall Saturday, accord
ing to Manager Tom Gurry, of the
Blue and Gray team, who' has re
ceived advance notices from the vari
ous coaches who have primed their
lads for the big meet.
The 50-yard scholastic and 440
will find the cream of the sprinters
waiting at the marks in what is con--fidently
looked forward to "as a
struggle calculated to bring out some
exceptional work. Heading the list
is Brooke Brewer, the St. Alban star,
who showed up no less a personage
than Jimmy Patterson, of Penn, one
of the best in intercollegiate circles
last Saturday at Baltimore.
Brewer was credited with ten seconds-
flat indoors last week, which
shows just where he stands in re
gard to ability. Carl Smith, coach
of tho Tome Institute track team,
makes an open boast 'that in Lea
Hornsby, captain of the Tome team,
he has a sprinter calculated to make
them all step.
Hornsby' has done better work In the
fifty than In any other event, and
Hmlth is entering him with the school
boys In both scholastic avents, and la
so confident of his prowess that he Is
sending him against tho cracks In the
50-yard open handicap event.
Clifford Jones, of Central, who sprang
into prominence by taking second In tho
scnolastlc century in Baltimore Satur
day last. Is another lad capable of
making them go to beat him, while
Kobert Claik and Charles Sln.uU, of tho
Ullman Count! y School, of Baltimore,
are trying their luck In tho scholastic
60-y.ird. Slagle Is a. fast yftunqster, who
made them hurry to beat him in Balti
more, while Clark stepped into tho tape
ahead of all of tho schoolboys in Bal
timore. Robert Maxam and Dorsoy Griffith, of
Western, are also entered In the GO-yard
event. Maxam was heavily handicapped
In Baltimore, and failed to corao
through. Ho had but a yard on Patter
Kon and I.lpplncott In the open century
In Baltimore. Griffith won second In
the scholastic novico and 50-yard event
In the G. W. U. games.
The Baltimore Polytechnic Institute
is sending In no less than live entries
for the half-century race, while the
Mars ton School, of Baltimore, enters
two youngsters. The best of the B. P.
1. sprinters are Sullivan, Mason, and
Skipper, while the Marston boys are O.
R. Steward and Robert Moore.
R. O. Round and G. O. Lynch, of tho
Manassas High School, will come up
for the scholastic events. Round got a
third in the scholastic 50 in the G. W.
U. meet.
The scholastic quarter -will bring to
gether such schoolboy Btars as John
Cheesnian, of Tome; Brooke Brewer,
of St. Alban, with his teammate, Har
old Rose, who has already gained two
second places In as many meets in me
scholastic quarter; Robert Maxam,
Dorsey Griffith. Francis Bridget, Long
Ktrcet Whclchel, all of Western; W.
Kundell, of Marston: W. Goldman. A.
Du Breull. and L- Knane. of B. P. I
and probably Smith and Shunk, of Mer
cersburg. the flyers who showed the
way In the quaitcr at the Hopkins
games.
Of tho relays Central will have two
in the races, St. Alban's has entered
a relay, while Eastern and Tech have
one each. Western will outer four relay
teams, while tho Georgetown Prepa
have two relay teams entered.
The Preparatory Basketball League
will contlnuo despite the fact that but
three teams arc now in the league. Tho
A. N. A. team Is now out of the run
ning, havin gdisbuuded for the season.
Cecil Dowd, manngcr of the team, says
ho has lost practirallv all of his players,
and that it Is Impossible to continue.,
The Georgetown Preps, Gonzaga, and'
Fairmonts will llKht it out for the uu
If Gonzaga is beaten In one or two of
the remaining games the Preps have a
chance for the cup.
Eastern retaliated for Its defeat in the
Intel scholastic game last Friday by tak
ing Business Into camp by a 24-to-lS
K'ore In the Eastern gym jrsterday.
Tho Easterners won handily In their
own gym, outshootlng and outgaming
the Business bunch.
Rice. Dyer, und Baldwin, of Eastern
weio continually in the limelight, and
made the win possible by their clever
shooting. Business was handicapped
by the low celling, and failed to get
going with Its accustomed speed.
The Alexandria High School live called
off the game with Western vosterday,
saying they had closed their basketball
season. Notice was given at the last
moment and Western was unable to
get a game.
Tt would seem that tho high school
boys are not tho nnlv ones peeved at
hnndlcapper England, of Baltimore. Dan
llcaly, cnptaln of the Carroll Xnstltuto
rioss country tonni, says England failed
1o give his team any handicap In the
Bronx Church House run in New York.

Nuts Gain Advantage of
Pins Over Squirrels
Maloney's Alleys.
56
at
Four bowlers and a newspaper man
who posed as The Nuts won a throe
game set from a quartet of bowlers and
Tony Sesso. who posed as The Squirrels,
at the Institution conducted by Fete
Maloney In Eighth street southeast, the
margin of victor' being something like
fifty-six pins. This difference In pin fall
does not nearly represent the proper
oamnarlson of the teams, as no bowline
etiquette handed down by tho Marquis
of Queensberry was observed, and fig
ures cannot adequately describe the real
difference in the teams.
The only reason The Nuts won was
because they were "nuttier" than thp
Squirrels from the time the very flrlr
ball was thrust down the alley until
Messrs. Goldberg and Hoffman, anchor
men, wound up the novel competition
by poodllng their latft two balls. As far
as was observed there was no foul line
regulation enforced, for "anything
went," from sliding on one's stomach
over the Imaginary line to sliding on
the reverslde boundary of one's anat
omy. Tony Sesso, who was 'the comedian
for both teams, went so far as to vault
down the alleys on a broomstick and
sweep the ten little pins off Into the
pith with the bristles. On another occa
sion a member of the 'Nuts was unable
to get his brake to working in time to
deliver the ball, and the diminutive
sphere carried him three paces beyond
the third light.
The probability Is that If Murphy
Goldberg had not consented to substi
tute for the Nuts, the Squirrels would
have completely devoured them; al
though credit must be given Chief Nut
Wooden for that game of 123.
All of southeast Washington, Includ
ing President H. B. Halley, Moe Krauss
and Hcrvey Rogers, amassed them
selves at Maloney's emporium to watch
the phenomenal teams In action. So
much attention was centered In the
Squirrel-Nut match that the spectators
turned from tho "Nesllne-Vlrglnla ave
nue set to watch the masquerade bowl
iers, and when Virginia avenue is tak
ing thteo straight from Nesllnes there
is somothing in the air if those loyal
southeast rooters turn their backs on
their favorites.
Peto Maloney was master of cere
monies Instead of anchor man for the
Squirrels, and we admire his choice In
jobs. He could not do enough to make
the visitors at home, and the Nnta are
doing down to call on him agaln,-very
soon.
Here are Ihe official figures of tho
"queor" match rolled by the Nuts and
Squirrels If they contain any flaws,
blame it on tho ones who rolled, not the
official scorer, for he had his troubles:

SEEN IN SOUTHEAS
Who's Who on Alleys
CHARLES W.
For class study today we have one Charles Plunkett, lead-off man on
the famous (?) Nut team. of the Palace Attic League, and rooter extra
ordinary in behalf of the Welsbachs, Palace, and Belmonts. The strangest
thing aJMut PKtokett is that he is not a bowler at all, buthe makes more1
noia and ewMs more chatter than any real bowlers do, bo we just
ont keep him out of the Who's Who. When Plunkett is leading aho
cheering section on the nights either of the three above mentioned teams
roll, one would think the Yale-Harvard football game were being re
peated for tho elevation and enlightenment of Washington sucKa deaf
ening din does his band create.
Then, too, there are Lefty Wooden and Buck Oliveri, who work in re
lays with Plunkett as cheer leaders. At times when all three have their
voices in good trim, they join forces and the very rafters of the Palace
roof vibrate, tremble, and tintinnabulate. Of this trio, Oliveri has been
appointed granjl author, for he writes the cheering songs, Plunkett sings
them, and Wooden-goes through all of the motions, of singing and writ
ing, but does nothing except to smile that sardonic' grin which invar
iably brings down the house. That all of these lads missed their real
calling in life is the opinion of everyone who has watched them on the
alleys. Each should have been a court jester to the grumpiest old kincrs
of the very oldest and most troubled European kingdoms as Old Scrooge
himself could never resist the contagious laugh which is ever upon the
countenances of Plunkett, Wooden, and Oliveri.
Teams Well Bunched in
Terminal DucHpin League
Transportation, hreight, and Auditors All Stand in Good Light to
Win, and Williams, Streiter, Warthen, and Humphrey
Lead in Individual Rolling.
Since the second section of games
commenced In the Railroad Y. M. C
A. League, the competition has been
keener than ever, and today the teams
are so well bunched that any of the
four squads in the first division have
an excellent opportunity to pick off a
pennant. Transportation. Freight and
Auditors are now leading In the order
named, and Car Department follows
closely, having won more than half of
Its games.
Many distinctive individual marks
have also been recorded, Williams,
Warthen. Streiter and Humphrey being
well to the front In the Individual per
formances. Hero arc the complete In
