Georgetown Men BY JOHN B. KELLER. ASKET BALL teams of Gallaudet and George Washington will clash B tomorrow night in Central Coliseum, with each striving to end a losing streak. The former would terminate a series of defeats sustained in engagements with the Hatchetites during the past two years, | while the latter is more than anxious to break into the victory column for the first time this winter. Gallaudet apparently has an excellent chance to chase the jinx that has followed it through matches with George Washington. The Kendall Greeners have lost only one of their and have played impressively. In none of its six engagements has George Washington done particularly well. However, the Hatchetites have been working hard this week and may spring a surprise. Play is to get under way tomorrow at 8:30 o'clock. The teams will haye the college field to themselves, none of the other District varsity quints being sclieduled for play here or elsewhere. While the Hatr have been meeting with 1o consistently, Gallaudet is Ly 1 ..cans overconfl- dent as to the outcuine of tomorrow'’s fray. Coach Ted Hughes has im- P sed upon his charges the neces- sity of keeping on their toes in & Kame, no matter what the class of And this es- pecially in contests with George Washington. In other seasons it has happened that Hatchetite quints, even those exceptionally weak, have shown greatest power against Gal- laudet. Gallaudet in Fine Fettle. But that surprising_victory over Loyola last Saturday has made the Kendall Greeners feel their oats a trifle. And when it is recalled that Loyola gave Catholic University a remarkable battle here and scored over the Brooklanders in a Baltimore engagement, Gallaudet’s belief in its strength seems justifiable. If the Florida avenue = five shows the same brand of basket ball tomorrow night as it did last Saturday the Hatchetites will ‘be in for a tough tussle. to say the least. Coach Hughes has sent his squad through strenuous drills this week and has it well tuned for the tilt. The regulars have been trimming the reserves dally, displaying great fm- provement in goal shooting. The same line-up that defeated Loyola probably will start agalnst George Washington. It includes Boatwright and McCall, forwards; Riddle, center, failed to register a field goal. Bre and Bradley and Davis, guard: Although past peviariances Are against {t, George Washington con- ers itself ready for the struggle with Gallaudet. Under Coach Jack Dailey’'s tutelage the downtowners have made some progress this week and are expected to give a good ac- count of themselves. Unfortunately for George Washington, the squad has not been strengthened as antici- pated. none of the new players ex- pected after the completion of mid- year examlnations at the university being avallable, = This leaves Coach Dailey with but seven or eight men from which to draft a quint, and but one of them may really be regarded as of varsity caliber. He is Klopsch, who has star- red at forward in most of the en- gagements played by George Wash- ington. But Kiopsch cannot carry all the burden. and should the other in Boston Meet. i five games so far in this campaign Hatchetites falter tomorrow night their losing streak is not apt to be ended. Klopsch's support will consist of Woerner, forward chols, center, and Down and Revnolds, guards. Brown and Newby will be in reserve, Woerner was troubledsby a shoulder brulse for a time, but has recovered from that hurt. In fact, the best that can be said of the squad is that it is in first-class physical condition. George Washington is the only member of the local varsity group that meets all the others at basket ball, and tomorrow night's game will complete its first District intercol- leglate round of the season. The Hatchetites were well drubbed by Catholic University and Maryland, but held Georgetown to a rather close count. Catholle University's quint contin- ued on its winning way last night, beating the Bucknell basketers 27 to 20 at Brookland. The Red and Black was somewhat sluggish at the outset and Bucknell soon gained a 14-to-9 advantage, but a spurt near the close of the half enabled Catholic Univer- sity to start the second portion of the fray with a 15-to-14 lead. In the second " half the Brooklanders sorted to “freezing” tactics, and Buck- nell could score but one basket from serimmage. For the first time thi eason Lynch, Catholic University _star, lin led the winners’ attack with four baskets. Reichelderfer best of the visitors. Between the halves a couple of Cathollc University students gave a boxing exhibition that became rather heated toward the finish. Georgetown has changed its relay team that will compete in the Boston Athletic Assoclation games in the Hub tomorrow night as a result of trials held at the Hilitop Johnny Holden, former Centr: School and Pennsylvania star, ran such an impressive quarter that he | was given a place in_the quartet| along with George Kinnaly, Ray | Haas and Paul Herlihy. Andy Gaffey, Walter Gegan and Jack Burgess have been used on the Georgetown team this season. In addition to the relay Capt.
