OCAL college athletes are having a fairly busy day with three basket ball games tonight providing the home competitions. it George Washington for the first ickinson, which last night conquered the Hatchetites, will move on to Georgetown, while the University of Mary- land Dental School team of Baltimore will be guests of Gallaudet at Ken- dail Green Tottesvile to tackle Virginia; Old L All of the games will start about 8 o'clock. In addition to these contests, the Maryland to: ers will go to Char- ne and Georgetown athletes are in the Boston A.

Catholic U.. which lost fng game to North Caroli Brookland gym last ni favored to win over Georie Was ton, and Dickinson, which beat the Hafchetltes, 42 to 23, appears to have the edge on the Hilltoppers. How- | ever, there should be plenty of spirit a thrill-| a in the in the meeting of the Brooklanders and the Hatchetites. while the Hill toppers always battle hard and are certain 1o any tewm a merry tussle in “tricky™ Ryan gy in which visiting teams find it dif to play their no North ( presented ast- | working, speedy and polished combi nation ‘in defeating Catholic U t night before a large crowd, but the Tarheels were pressed at all times by the much less experienced Brookland sonhomore aggregation.

Foley was not much behind him, getting as many field zoals. but mak- ing good in only two of five shots from the 15-foot mark. North Carolina had u slight edge in allaround effigiency. just enough to| gain the upp¥® ha every member | of the team figuring in the scoring. Newcomb, the Tarheel center, also outjumped Carney. the Brookland pivot man. most of the time. The Tarheels are in Annapolis today to play the Navy and they have an other big job on their hands i Dickinson was much too classy for | the George Washington team, showing a combination of agile, fast and ex perienced big men who played like a machine. The visitors quickly as- serted their superiority, scoring e iy | and running into a lead of 22 to 9 by the time intermission was reached. The tchetites, realizing the fu- tility of trying to break through the Dickinson defense for close shots, be- gan to fire from long range in the last half and were quite successful, get- ting 14 points while the visitors were adding 19. The visitors’ scoring was pretty well divided, but Wallace totaled 2a | dozen of the local points. The Marvland Dentists defeated Gallaudet the last time they met, but the Kendall Greeners are ng on | getting even. However. the team from. Baltimore is made up of experi enced performers and Gallaudet will do well ff it gets the long end of the count. Maryland has its relay team that beat Dartmouth, Penn -and Boston College in New York on Thursday night in the Boston meet tonight, while Georgetown has Planksy, Des sault, Gegan and Ray Haas there for action in individual events. The Old Liners again will hook up with Dartmouth, with Brown provid- ing a third team in the race. Mary land should win if it is able to do as well as it did in the Millrose games in Gotham. Plansky will be in the dashes and shot put; Dessault will run in the 1.000-vard speclal: Gegan will strive for honors in the mile, while Haas will compete in the hurdles races. Maryland is favored to win basket ball game with Virginia. Up until a few d ago it appeared as if the contest would be a battle roval, with the chances about 50-50. However, Virginia’s main cog, Tvler, the center. is ill. and the effec his absence was shown on Thur: night, when North Carolina trimmed the liers. 47 to 1 The teams, | with Tyler playing, were doped to be about on a | with the Tar- heels holding a slight edge, if any was conceded.

Inside Golf By Chester Horton While too much tightness usually begins in the wrists and forearms, it is most easily noticeable in the upber arms and across the shoulders.
