a5 SPORTS.’ THE ‘HATCGHETITES TO PLAY ONLY A FEW BALL GAMES . BY H. C. BYRD. GEORGE WASHINGTON'S track and tennis teams will go through strenuous schedules, plans for real tests in both branches of sports being almost complete. The track and field athletes are to take part in four meets, besides an intramural set of games, while the tennis men have listed thirteen matches, with two more in prospect. Plans for base ball, the other spring sport to be fostered by the Hatchetites, are somewhat uncertain, only a short schedule having been | Poker Pogtraits—The Variety of Technique Displayed in Playing an Ace Full —By Wehster. < ~ ,)’ M-M-M - 1E'S : SEE Now.

CLI arranged and a small squad being at The firgt track meet for the Hatchetit¥s will be an intra-mural affair, scheduled as a kind of tryout for t candidates for the various events. This is to be held April 16. April 23 will find the squad taking in the triangular meet with tholic University and Maryland. Aprii 29 and 30 the squad goes to the Penn relays, and the team fn this €a; probably will consist of two relay fours, and Lochler in the Pen- tathlon. On May 7 Gallaudet is to be engaged in dual games and the season will be wound up on May 13| sand 14 with competition in the South | Atlantic Intercollegiate Athletic Asso- ciation meet at Georgetown. Racketers Getting Ready. | Matches in tennis are scheduled | with Washington and Lee, Virginia Military Institute. Virginia, George- tewn, Catholic University, Johns Hop- | kins, Delaware, Drexel, and Maryiand. | Two matches each are to be played | with Virginia _Military Institute, Georgetown, Catholic University and Maryiand. Negotiations now being | carried on may lead to matches with | Corneil and Lehigh. | Ladd, Ballinger and Boyd, main- stays of the stellar team last vear, | are getting in shape and expect to Tepeat their fine season of 1420, not- | withstanding the hard schedule. | i « While preparations have becn made | to play e ball at George Washing- | ton this spring, the dificulties con- | fronting the athletic authorities there ’ln turning out a team seem So many | l that it is very questionable if it | , really is advisable for them to at- tempt to carry out their plans. . Only a short schedule has been ar- ranged, it true, but withou ‘ adequate pl g quarters, without ! is work. | zood material on which to build, and probably with limited finances, the Haichelites seem to be strotching a point to put out a team. If the | university goes through with plans | for basé ball this spring it should be | given much credit, but, considering | the conditions, it should not be | censured in the least if it were to discard the game until a year or | two from naw. when it will have had an opportunity to get athletics'sound- 1y developed. University of Maryland is making a rearrangement of its base ball schedule which involves the cancella- tion of the trip to Morganjown and Pittsburgh, and probably the jaunt to Newark and Bethlehem. These two trips are scheduled the last week in May and the first'week in June, and involve almost two weeks of absence from the university near the end of the year. The athletic board is of the opinion that some of the men on the ball team may be too near the ragged edge in their classes go run the risk of having them fail in their third term’s work. Particularly in this true of some of the members of the nine, who will be depended upon to be eli- gible for foot ball in the fall. Plans are being made to close the schedul May 21, when Gallaudet is listed t appear at College Park. An attempt may be made at the meeting of the South Atlantic Inter- collegiate Athietic Association here in May to form a sectional basket ball league. The idea recently has been broached by a member of the S. A. I. A the idea carrying with it a_pian h may work out satisfactorily.

Is Another Draw. HAVANA, "March 24—Chess en- thusiasts attending the world cham- iouship match between Dr. Emanuel Lasker and Jose R. Capablanca were expecting today that the fifth game of the tournament, tq be begun to- night, would be marked by sensg- tiopal play by the two masters. This expectation had its origin in the rapid play in the fourth game last night, which wag drawn after the thirtieth move. The first three games of the tour- nament were played very slowly, but Dr. Lasker and his opponent last night opened their contest at a rapig rate, making thirteen moves during the first half hour of play. On his fourteenth move Dr. Lasker adopted a yariation of his game by advanc- ing his queen’s rook pawn one square, and on the next move this pawn wae adyanced another square. . Capablanca seemed unprepared for ‘thig _development and studied the board for a considerable time before making a rejoinder. He then boldly attgcked on the king's side of the board, trying to break through, and after the seventeenth move ‘3%591 sitfon became very intricate.” When twgnty-two moves had been made Spruhan, Coach at V.
