The Gunston Hall tossers have had ta more complete basket ball program this year than at any time in the past. Not only have they a full varsity schedule, but Jack Haas, the coach, has arranged a closed league of four teams, which has been playing a round-robin serfes since last Novem! ber. Each team in this league is com posed of 10 players. The varsity team was selected from the performance of individuals during this series. If at any time during the season a player on a league team shows more ability than one already on the varsity squad Mr. Haas pro- motes that player to the varsity in place of the one she has outclassed. | This gives an added incentive to all girls in the school to participate in the game, The Tigers are leading the lgague at present, having lost but one game. Imogene Taylor captains this group. Second place -is held by the Zebras, with an even number of games won and lost.

Carolina now holds the Southern Conference championship, which it has held for the past two years, and Maryland s rated among the two or three teams which may take the lll‘e: away from the Tarheels. { Then, too, Maryland and Carolina are great rivals and at the same time the | best of friends and always stage a | fine, sportsmanlike contest in any | sport in_which they meet. | Several of the basketers who wili| play for Marvland against the Tar-| heels will be competing against their old coach, H. F. Sanburn. While at Tech High he tutored some of the boys who now are performing for thic | Old Liners, notably Donald Adams, who has been playing so well re cently. Maryland ‘and _Catholic University | teams each have three hard games. In addition to the Tarheels, Maryland will meet formidable opposition in West Virginia and Duke. The Brook landers also face West Virginia next Saturday after playing Davis and FIkins on Tuesday and George Wash- ington on Thursday. This makes the going rather rough for the Brookland | ers and Old Liners, the latter being| forced to perform on successive nights. Davis and Elkins probably will pre sent the next strongest team to North Carolina, which will visit during the | week and this is said in all deference | to West Virginia and Penn.

It is | a pity that two of the biggest con-| tests of the week should fall on the | same night. | West Virginia's first appearance | here will be against, George Washing- | ton®on Tuesday. The next day the| Mountaineers will go over to Annapo- | ls to play Navy. ‘Then they will rest | on Thursday before tackling Maryland | on Friday and Catholic University on Saturday. The West Virginians doubt- less will go sightseeing in Washing- ton on their day off. Penn State, which will play the Hill- | toppers on Friday, always has a good | quint, and_this year is no exception. | While the Nittany Lions have not won all their games they have been meet- | ing with success as a whole against strong opposition.

Staging one of those clase and excit- ing games of basket ball for which the local season has been noted, the avy defeated the University of orth Carolina today, 31 to 30, in a ontest that required two extra perfods of five minutes each to de- cide. Navy led at the end of the first half by 15 to 13 but the score was tied at 25 each when the regular play- ing time was completed. Both teams scored fleld goals in the first extra period.
