Driving Men for Catholic"U" Game. !]
The Gallaudet College team had a
stiff workout in signal drills yes- Iterday afternoon and wound up thesession with a half hour's scrimmageagainst the reserves. With theexception of Capt. Bouchard all themen were in the line-up. The Ken-
dall £reen leader was bruised con-j'siderably in last Saturdays' gamewith Western* Maryland.The coaching staff of the Kendall t1
Greeners was enlarged by the addi-tion of "Scoops" Cooper and Cloud. |1Cooper will have charge of the linenmen, while Cloud, who played half)back on the 1916 team, will takehold of the backfleld. While theKendall Greeners realize that theywill be up against a worthy foe inCatholic University Saturday thefeeling that they are going to winis hard to suppress. This feelingis based upon the steady all around J:improvement made by the eleven, htogether with the fact that every)!man is in tip-top condition for thecontest. j i

The Greatest Achievement.
»| "Which do you consider the great- |lest achievement," writes a WesternJfan."Babe Ruth's fifty-four homeruns in one year or Ty Cobb's fea*in leading the league twelve out ofthirteen years?"From 'the viewpoint of spectacu[larity, or abnormality.as you might
I say.Ruth did the more astoundingthing.But we have always been inclinedto give greater credit to the
record made over the long route.
II Ruth has now known two yearsof fame and magic. Cobb for twelv»out of thirteen years led the parade
t .something that Wagner, Delehan-|ty. Keeler and Lajoie could not even
approach. %Yet Cobb, as great a drawing card
as he was, never came close toRuth's turnstile lure this last year.
[This lure stands without rivalryj Ruth's mark of flfty-four homeruns will very likely never be near-ly equaled. But in the future howmany hitters are coming along tolead two major leagues in twelveout of thirteen years?
Starting Another."With no desire to start another
argument." suggests W. K. G., "yetI with the knowledge at hand thacl, should be advanced, in spite of thei Eastern belief that it can learnnothing from the West. I'd like tosay that very, very few Eastern unlIversities have nearly as strict ellgi*
| bility rules as the Western confer|ence. There isn't even the questionof a doubt as to the amount of col4.lege work each of these conference
j football players carries, nor as to>.the quick enforcement of any pentalty for failure to keep up."
At least, so .far as the standard. of football play is concerned. Westiern elevens can show an average»j in strength, power and machine play
j that is second to no other sectionJin this fairly lippy Commonwealth.

When Mort Henderson, the "MaskedMarvel." and Charley Cutler meeton the mat at the Coliseum Thurs-day night the occasion will mark jthe debut performance of the WashingtonAthletic Club, recently organizedto promote high-class boxingand wrestling for District fans.These two' wrestlers, among the
best in the country, should drawa big house and the promise ismade that the best in the businesswill be brought here if the publicindicates a desire to see them. JoeStecher, Strangler Lewis and Earl«Caddock are all available, though jit i« going to cost a pretty pennyto get their nam^s to a contract.Ladies are invited to attend the
match, and. with the best of orderpledged, it is believed that a largenumber of them will turn out.After its first wrestling venture, j
the new athletic club will stagea ten-round fight between Bob Mar-tin. the A. E. F. champion, and PaulSampson, a husky battler from Phil-adelphia, at the Hyattsville Armoryon the night of November 5. Mar-,tin has established himself as oneof the best of the heavy-weightsnow scrapping, and will find inSampson a tough customer. Thebout will be a no-decision affair.Special provisions will also be madeto extend to the ladies every courtesyat this match.Organization of the Washington
Athletic Club is well under way.with many of Washington's leadingbusiness and professional mennumbered among its backers. Cleansport is its motto, and it seems sureof success.
EDDIE KELLEY MEETSLEONARD FRIDAY NIGHTHarlem Eddie Kelley, who is to
box Champion Benny Leonard atthe Armory in Baltimore next Frijday night, will arrive in the citynext Tuesday and will work outat the Baltimore Athletic Club, and,as Max Waxman has made some ar'rangements for sparring partners,those who are privileged to witnessbouts at this club will see theclever New Yorker work out.
In Kelley's closing work-outs atjstillman's Gym. in New York, theregulars decided that Leonard wouldhave to travel fast in order to holdoff Joe Woodman's battler and,judging from the big crowd thatwas on hand to see these workouts,it will not be surprising if manyboxing followers come over fromthe Big Town to see this scrap.The Central Club, of which Kelley
is a member, has ordered 300 ring-side tickets and will go to Balti-more and present Eddie with a
loving cup.
