TG SPORTS.” Track Athletics Are Growing in This Section MANY MEETS ARE LISTED FOR OUTDOOR CAMPAIGN Will Come Thick and Fast Hereabouts in Spring. Georgetown, Virginia and Maryland Only Teams to Be Active Indoors. BY H. C. BYRD. HILE the indoor track and field season, with the exception of what Georgetown, Virginia and Maryland may do with their N v relay teams on Northern tracks, is likely to afford little of in- terest to the South Atlantic section, just the opposite is likely to be true of the outdoor campaign. Outdoor schedules are longer and more varied than in any previous year, and beginning with the first Saturday in April there will be dual meets and open competitibns almost every week. Cer- tainly no week will go by without many dual meets. Georgetown is the only school in the section which has an extensive indoor schedule. It started two weeks ago, and will compete every week in pames somewhere, this week being scheduled in two. one in Newark, N. J., tonight, and the other at New York Saturday night. Maryland is to take part in five meets and Virginia three. The Maryland relay four goes to_the | other local school.

Virginia's relay team is entered in the Millrose games next week to run eorgetown, Holy Cross and se, and with that array on the them the Charlottesville rest assured they wili Two South Atlantic schools still | have open jobs as head coaches uf their fot ball teams next Fall. Nei ther North Carolina nor Virginia Poly technic Institute has as yvet obtained get more competition than they desire. The first dual meet will be held April 3, which marks the opening of the outdoor season. Many of the South Atlantic teams have dual meets every week from then until the latter part of M but several interrupt their dual schedules to make trips to open meets. The Georgia Tech rela April 10, are due to draw several schools; ¢he Penn relays a good many and the invitation meet, at Richmond. its share. In fact, so pretentious are the track schedules that they are in A fair way to equal base ball as the main thing in Spring sports. The growth of track and field ath- Jetics in this section has been excep- t in the last three years. Of that is due in the main to one f . ‘the acquiring of facilities. Trior to three vears ago there were just two good tracks in the whole sec- tion, now there is hardly a school with out one. Gzllaudet’s basket ball team appears tonight at George Washington. The Kendall Greeners have not been doing as well as they expected, but hope to zet going well against the Hatchetites. The game begins at 8 o'clock. Georgetown is due to be represented tonight In the St. Joseph's track and fleld at Newark. The Blue and Gray plans to send the same men who have heen representing it in other games, Ascher, Burgess, McLain, Swinburne gnd Plansby. man to direct its 192 gridiron cam- gn. and so neither has heen Jle to find a man on whom it feels that it can with some degree of safety | depend. : Actually when schools look around { for head coaches of foot ball they ex ercise more care than they do in looking for men to fill any other place {on their staff. A popular and suc- cessful foot ball coach can be worth his weight in gold to a college if he is the right type of man, and on the other hand an exceptionally success- | ful coach may be the most undesirab! man on the campus from an adminis- trative point of view. In short, if a coach influences students in the right direction he is worth far more than his salary, no matter what that may be; if, though, he influences them wrongly, he is a great detriment to the institution with which he is con- nected. no matter how successful he may be in turning out teams. And sometimes this is the true explanation of why a coach loses a job, despite the fact that he seems from the outside to have been successful. Maryland has shifted its date for a dual track and fleld meet with Vir- ginia Military Institute from April 10 to April 3, so that the meet with M. I. may be held in conjunction th the lacrosse game with the Brit- ish team, Oxford-Cambridge, due to open its American schedule here with the Old Line. This also leaves open April 10, so that Maryland may send Catholle University is engaging in more indoor sports this Winter, in Intercollegiate competition, than any its relay team to the Georgia Tech relays.

I teach it to the midshipmen at the Naval Academy, and they learn it readily and use it effectively in their boxing. It will be found that the more prac- tical boxer is he who boxes with care, never throwing away punches. The boxer who hits without judgment gen- erally wastes his energy and thereby practically defeats himself. Science does not necessarily mean that a man must display a brand of flashy punches or fancy footwork. In many cases it has heen proved that the better boxer is n ot he who seems the more clever, but the one who shows the more consistent means to win his bout.

FOREIGN ATHLETIC STARS ARE COSTLY BALTIMORE, January 27.—The Johns Hopkins-5th Regiment games committee plans to make this year's program on February 27 one of the finest ever offered Baltimore track and fleld fans. Negotiations are almost settled to bring several, if not all, of the famous foreign track and fleld stars now in this country. But offering invitations to these athletes entails the expenditure of considerably more money than the public would imagine, the committee claims. The foreign athletic stars now in this country who would form a nucleus of the Johns Hopkins-th Regiment games’ drawing power are: Hoff, polevaulter; IHouben, German sprinter; Paulen, Dutch middle-dis- tance runner, and Goodman, cham- pion English walker. Baltimore would be one of the few citles to benefit by the appearance of these foreign stars, and its anmateur athletic standing would be greatly Loosted by their appearance. The program, as considered by the Na. tional A.'A. U., will present these ath- letes in New York, Baltimore, cago, New Orleans and Los Angeles Each of these citles will consequentiy be taxed pro rata for the traveling living and training expenses of the athletes during their stay in th country.

T $ 5 0T'THIS Bt Some basket ball players, par- ticularly forwards, when their sig- nal is given to receive the tap im- mediately “telegraph” to the guard covering them that the ball is to he tapped to them. They begin to maneuver in order to mislead their guard. An intelligent guard realizes im- medtately that all he has to do is 1o keep his man out of position when the ball is tossed up. As a result he breaks up a tap play. A forward should always take the same position before the tap, and he should keep his eyes on the ball as in the fliustration on the eft. One method common to forwards that gives such a play away is for them to glance out of the corner of their eves to locate their guard as in the illustration on the right. In short, a forward should never take any position or act in any way that will tip off his opponent that he is to receive the ball. Chi. | SPORTS.
