AII-Time Total Includes 46 Record Performers. NAMES Even though there was no nation-wide plan among golfers to do for the Red Cross this year, Cincinnati golfers didn't hold back. It takes some time for wise distribution of such funds, but now a letter from Mable Culter, local Executive Director, is proud to tell what some of the golfers' money went for this year. "My dear Mr. Loewe: Pursuant to our several telephone conversations regarding the most recent generosity of the Cincinnati golfers we are writing to give you the information concerning our recent expenditures: We have purchased the following equipment two 1942 Willys coupes (new) two three-fourth ton panel trucks (new) one 1S38 DeSota (used, good condition) $500; four dictating and five transcribing machines totaling $6,955.56.

Kreter scooted all the way through a host of would- be tacklers after falling back from his own 31 to the 20 and then cutting to the sidelines behind a wall of blockers after 11 minutes and 45 seconds of the opening quarter. partment have made a great many more field visits necessary.

At Six As Megogo Annoxes Laurel Race Top Weight Carried By Big Horse.

Laurel, Oct. 28 (AP) Charles Turner's Bon Jour had his victory streak snapped after six in succession as he failed to outrun the Christiana Stable's Megogo in the 31st running of the Washington Handicap today. Megogo, a three-year-old, gelded son of Menow, thus automatically became eligible for next Wednesday's Pimlico Special. A crowd estimated at 12,000 persons forced Bon Jour down to three-to-five favorite, but burdened under 126 pounds to Megogo's 110, he was no match for the younger racer, owned by H. L.

Lunger of Wilmington, Del. Megogo, ridden by Jockey Kn Scawthorn, was second away from the gate and midway up th-j stretch He passed W. P. Wetherall's Lord Calvert and moved into a three-length lead. Bon Jour, which had been running easily in third position, moved up around the final turn but Megogo, winner of the Potomac Handicap here earlier in the meeting, had enough speed left in the stretch to turn him back by a lengtn margin.

Bon Jour in turn led Miss R. McClenaghan's Harford by two lengths and Lord Calvert finished fourth in the field of six. The winner earned a purse of $18,900, which boosted his total for the year to $45,450 as he accounted for his fifth victory in 19 attempts. Phonograph, The Colonel's Lady, Adios Are Recent Additions Last Named Is Pacer. BY TOM GAHAGAK.

rECIAl DISI'ATl'H IO THE K.NQllltUI. Indianapolis, Oct. 28 Two recent addition to the two-minute trotting list put the 1944 season far ahead of any season in the production of fast record trotters. The brace of performers added through a time record meeting at Lexington brings the season's total to 11 the all-time total 46, giving the season just closed fcredit for nearly one quarter of all the performers entering the -list inaugurated In 1903 when Lou Dillon trotted the first 2:00 mile over the Boston suburban track known as Readville where Star Pointer Inaugurated the pacing two-minute list six years before the two-minute trotting Inaugural by Lou Dillon. The two most recent additions to the two-minute trotting list are four-year olds, a colt and a filly.

The colt is the big brown Phonograph, a leading racing performer on the Grand Circuit the last two aeasons in the stable of Tom Berry. COLT TOPPED SALE. Three yaars ago at the sale of the Walnut Hall Farm yearlings at Donerail this colt topped the sale Joseph Burke, a New Jersey horseman, paying $7,000 for him. It seemed a high price at the 18 111!

One of Ridgewood members reported an incident' yesterday that he claims will top the tall ones emanating at Clovernook. This fellow putted his ball into the cup, and before he could walk over and get it, the ball kept bouncing up and down in the hole. Solution: A frog was hopping up and down in the cup and the ball bouncing on its back. muss spilt drinks, and "stealing" of a bowling ball, privately owned, when the owner happens to look away from the return, causing a further delay, as he looks for his pallet. In conclusion, Mr.

New Bowler we welcome you to league play, wish you continued improvement and better scores, but please observe the regular league bowler and follow his actions. Herman Mergard Jr. was ap pointed Publicity Chairman of the newly organized Greater Cincinnati Bowling Council by Dr. D. J.

Smal-ley. The council plans a dinner meeting for league Presidents and Secretaries. The program will include information designed to assist league officials in the correct handling of league details, bonding of league Treasurers, playing rules, etc Herman Mergard tells of inspect ing the lights at one of his establishments, when his pet fox terrier suddenly ran on an alley bed, 10 feet from the head pin, just when a bowler released his ball. Hearing the veils of the bowlers, Hermie called his pet, who turned in time to allow the ball to pass between his front and back legs. The kegler was attempting to convert the 5-7 split, which peculiarly was successful.

Some years ago a bowler regis tered nine consecutive splits and his teammates were "pulling" for him to score another split in the tenth frame. This would have created a rather dubious record, but the bowler made his spare to finish with a 99 game. Tour scribe would like to hear of any game bowled that included ten splits. We Redskins Defeat Denison For Seventh Win. Victors Score Touchdown In First Period, Then Put Over One More In Fourth Quarter.

SPECIAL MSl'ATL'H TO THE EXgllRI'lt. Dayton, Ohio, Oct. 28 The mythical State College football championship was in the possession today of Miami University's unbeaten Redskins, unless their transfer-ridden team fails to get by Ohio Wesleyan on November 11 at Delaware. Miami handed heretofore undefeated Denison a 16-0 defeat here this afternoon before 5,000 fans in the University of Dayton by scoring an early touchdown, holding on to its lead when Denison threatened, and then scoring twice in the last quarter on a safety and another touchdown. It was Miami's seventh straight win.

The Redskins, who lost 14 of their men by transfer to other Naval and Marine units after today's game, scored on the seventh play after they got the ball. Taking a poor quick kick by Glenn Culp, Denison halfback, on the Denison 35, the Indians quickly marched to the one-yard line where Dick Enz-mlnger, Marine halfback from Council Bluffs, Iowa, went over for his seventh consecutive touchdown. Jack Quinn, Lima Seaman quarterback, kicked goal. PENALTY COSTLY. Miami threatened twice in the flrot half, but a holding penalty sent the Redskins reeling back from the 10-yard line where they lost the ball on downs.

Just as the gun cracked an incomplete pass fell on the goal line after Miami had worked the ball again to the 7-yard line. Denison threatened late in the third quarter after Carl Trichell, Denison sruard. recovered Marine Tony Cudahy's fumble on the Mi ami 24. Miami held on the 2-yard line and on fourth down a pass, Culp to Bill Meacham, halfback, was fumbled on the goal when Cudahy tackled the receiver, M'aml taking over on the 3 where the Redskins quickly carried the ball out of danger. Denison foolishly elected to carry the ball out of its end zone on three successive plays early in the final quarter after Enzminger's great kick went out on the Denison 3.

On the third try Art Simpson, substitute fullback, was tackled for a safety by Dick Piskoty, Miami Marine guard. Before Denison recovered from that shock Miami had scored again on Bill Ellwood's 34-yard run off ihs left tackle. Quinn again kicked goal. THREATEN ONCE. Denison made only one serious scoring gesture.

Its passing game was stopped cold, only three out of 16 being completed for 27 yards. Miami intercepted three others. Miami stuck to the ground for much of its yardage, gathering 295 yards in rushing to Denison's 65. Miami had 18 first downs to Denison's six. In passing, Miami connected for five out of eight for 38 yards.

It will be the first meeting in the history of the two schools. don't think that anyone could be so unlucky, or rather so good. We watched Larry Wissel start a game with a double and he had a score of 36 in the fourth frame. It happened this way: His first ball in the third frame failed to curve and he knocked over the ten pin. His second ball passed over the same spot and in the next frame he succeeeded in counting three pins.

Larry is a fairly good bowler, and said he just could not control his hook. We just learned that Bar King, sponsor of a number of teams under the name of King Duffy Foods, is stationed at Great Lakes Training Station. He is following his civilian occupation, being in charge of the commisary department. Another member of the Navy spent his furlough in town. A swell fellow and a good bowler, Ray Wieber took the marriage vows last week.

Congratulations, Ray. Mat Card Is Headed By Tag Team Bout Clete Kauffman and All Aliba get another chance at Frankie Talaber and Jack Forbes in a tag team wrestling match at Music Hall Friday night. Clete and Ali were disqualified last week when they ganged up to toss Forbes for the deciding fall in an exciting match. It will be a 90-minute match this time. It was a 60-minute contest last week.

Hank Whitler, outlucked by Marty Angelo in his last start, has been matched with the Masked Marvel for the semiwindup. A one-fall match will open the card.

In his recent tilt against the Watch, Berry drove the colt to a record of the third fastest Viile of the season, beaten only by the famous brotlur and sister, Volo Song (1:57) and Love Song both also sired by Volomite. PASSES PETER VOLO. Volomite has passed his famous sire, Peter Volo, as a sire of two-minute performers, having a total of 12 of which seven are trotters. Peter Volo previously led all sires with a total of 10, seven trotters and three pacers. The second of the most recent pair of fast record performers 's the four-year-old filly, The Colonel's Lady, which Frank Ervin drove to a record of 2:00.

This filly has been more or less In the limelight for two seasons. She was raced in 1943 by Henty Thomas with fair success. After the Lexington meeting last year Thomas drove her to a record of 2:02 agsinst time. Early this sea-on she joined the Ervin stable and racdd conssltently.

New Bowler walks up to the ball return just as his opponent is about to start his delivery, tries out every ball and may even take a few practice swings and finally takes his position. Without regard, he starts his approach, and after releasing the ball, he squirms around at the foul line. If he falls to make a strike, he waits at the foul line for the pin setter to return his ball. In the meantime the seasoned bowlers on the next alleys are still waiting for Mr. New Bowler to complete his antics, when another newcomer goes through the same routine.

Other difficulties encountered are the marking-up of approaches by the use of soft rubber heels; ap proaches are treated with talcum powder to make them less sticky; drinks are served in and around bowlers' benches, causing bowlers to foul, if they happen to step in ALL SIZES 10c TO 3 FOR SOc THE FINEST SMOKE YOU EVER HAD In her last start she was second to Phonograph In the Messenger Stake. She is a daughter of Scotland, the third two-minute performer for that sire this season, he also being the sire of Darnley (1:59) and Scotland's Comet both of which took their best records In races. In contrast to the trotters, the pacers furnished only a single addition to the two-minute list this eason. ESTABLISHED RECORD. The four-year-old colt Adios, Which paced two winning heats at Lexington, both in to establish a record for a two-heat race.

His great rival King's Counsel, Which took a record in 1941, paced a mile at Milwaukee in 1:59 and the aged Carty Nagle Which paced to a 2:00 record against time in 1943, equalled this In a race at the Old Orchard track last summer. The most sensational pacing performance at 1944 was that of the two-year-old Jimmy Creed which won at Lexington in 2:00 to establish a pacing record for the ago. (, Jimmy makes trouble at the start at time and this lime he was away several lengths behind the field, but paced around them, and while the Official time of the mile was 2:00 outside watches caught the mile faster than Ihe two-minute mark.
