George Washington made its shifts to cope with the sharpshoot- ing of Cosgrove and Dyer, but this pair scored over all guarding. Tn the initial half Sapp and Allshouse were vanked and Levin and Wallace rent in to take care of the eagle-eyed Ken- dall Greeners. But Cosgrove’s total of five goals from scrimmage in the half shows just how effective was the change. And in the second half this pair supplanted the Tegulars to check the Gallaudet fleld scoring. But Dyer niftily tossed four field goals in the last 20 minutes. ¢ All told, Cosgrove tallied seven timeg from scrimmage, and Dyer six times.

Tt | was their night and they made the I most of it. George Waghington was woefully lacking in team play, offensively as well as defensively. Tts attack was slipshod, too much Dbeing left to the | individual, and the Colonials did not seem to have a man who could locate | the basket consistently. They had many opportunities to count, but blew chance after chance. Gallaudet Leads at Half. Sapp and Bland did the scoring that gave George Washington a lead at the outset of hossilities, but' Gallaudet kept plugging away at the down- towners and passed them just after the latter had registered their fif- | teenth point. Then Cosgrove broke |away and when half-time came Gal- laudent was leadipg, 21 to 17. . With the start of the second half the Kendall Greeners increased their advantage.

Dyer, | though, promptly shot three succes- sive goals from scrimmage to make the Kendall Green lead more com- fortable and thereafter his team had the game well in hand. A Gooed Argument.

Saunderg of \Washington missed six free tries, but sent 11 through the hoop. Cleveland grabhed an early lead, being ahead, 15 to 9, at half time, but the constant calling of fouls gave Washington the opportunity to close the margin.

JOHN'S MIDGETS St. John's Coll Midget basketers easily defeated Colony A. C., 44 to 16, yesterday on the Saints’' floor to chalk up their third win in as many starts. 3 Carroll, with 15 points, and Galla- gher, with 11, were principal scorers for the winners. Y ‘Whatever the offense, wheéther short pass or long pass or the effective com- bination mixed with the dribble, the main thing to stress is that it should be so balanced as to shift instantly into a strong defensive position should the opponents intércept the ball. Coach Saalwaechter's Cornell quin- tet, champions of the Midwest Collegi- ate Conference, and a strong contender this season, proved this conclusively last year. Cornell won 11 of its 12 conference tests. The reason was her well balanced offense, one that be- (came a defense in the twinkling of an {eye when the ball was loét. ‘This was true in her title game with Carle- ton, a team that led 17-1 the end of e first half, but was defeated 33 i to 28. Cornell made the miktake of driving in four men on offense. As Carle- ton's guards were strong, they often secured- the ball, relaying it by long passes to their two forwards, who laid back with but oné Cornell man cover- {ing them, This fault was’corrected {between halves and Corndll then { ran wild.

BY EDDIE COLLINS, VI--Blocking FTER our old infteld, Barry, Baker, McIpnis and 1, had heen working together about two seasons, necessity, mean- ing my none-too-strong throw- ing arm, compelled us to adopt an original method for breaking up dou- ble steals, After considerable prac tice it worked very well, but not with out several amusing results when the scheme was new. 1t required extraordinary effort for me to get the ball to the plate in time to head off a fast man when I took the throw at second, 8o I proposed to Barry that with runners on first and third, T should cut in behind the pitchér when the man on first started for second, If the runner on third remained there I would open up m{ hands and Jack could catch the ball and get the runndr going into second. . We worked on this for dome time in morning practice and decided we would try it out on Cobb and Bush, Detrojt heing due in an% for a se- ries just at that time. e wanted especially to cireumvent this pair for they took great delight in making us e p troubl Early Chance Is Afforded. The - chance came 8oon - enough. Barly in the first game Bush got on with one out and Ty sent him to third with & hit. Jack and I knew what to expect and we were not disappointed, Cobb started on the first pitch, I cut in behind the pitcher to intercept the throw and nall Bush at the plate, but foxy Donie never moved off the bag. 1 ?ened my hands as per agreement and rehearsal, but Barry also was tehing Bush and did not have time t6 put up his hands after the ball went through and it hit him full the stomach, knocking him over. Cobb slid into second and then got up and gave us the horse laugh. Al that experience Jack said he would remember to keep his eye on the ball and 16t me watch the man at third. He did, and we pulled the play successtully several times before we left home, 3 Our first stop on the next trip wis New York. That was duite awhile ago, for the Yankees were playing on the hilltop grounds. Jack Sheridan umpired all alone. During the game Chase reached third, and Frank LaPorte, who was not noted for speed, was on first. La. Porté . started for second and I hastened 6ver to my néw position Sheridan was standing behind the pitchér and when the throw came 1 made such a d bluff at catohi the ball that Chase dove heéad first ?Ack to t.plrd. hal I;nlvln. edged off a lew 8 n anticipation of a bre for the plaf 3 e Of course, I opened up my Hands and 1ét the ball pass through. Barry took it and tagged LaPorte out, standing up, 10 feet or more in front of sécond. It was the third out, with thé tag, Jack turned, threw his glove out on yhe grass back of short and started for the heénch. Now, I not only fooled Chase but also Umpire Sheridan. When he saw me, as he supposed, catch the ball, he waved LaPorte sife without hardly looking around and started for the plate to take up his position there. To put it mildly, I was surprised to #ee the decision, and, I yelled: “You blind blankety, blank, can't you see anything?”’ Sheridan never stood for any rough talk, and turned wrathfully to see who ad the temerity to talk like that to him. As he turned around he saw Barry throwing away his glove, high in.the alr. Yer out of the game. Sheridan called back.

Others use wooden tees for their fair- way shots, while others are careful to place the ball on the nearest piece of grass, not nearer the hole. k Some in picking up the ball to give it the “preferred lie” remove mud if any adheres to the ball. Others are most serupulous not to do so. Some take the liberty of advancing the ball a yard or so closer to the hole—others beljeve it ethical to take the ball out of line of an obstructfon. Though there is little reference in the rules of golf to the so-called “Win- ter rules,” it is quite elearly under stood among the golfing fraternity who would .not take any unfair ad- vantage that any of the subterfuges. such as artificial tees, moving the ball closer to the hole, removing the mud. etc., are 'outside the pale of good sportsmanship. Since it is only the intention of the committee, which an- nounces “Winter rules,” that the course be saved as much as possible. it is clearly not intended that the game shall be made easier thereby. ven though this almost always hap- pens when preferred lies are possible. “Winter rules” are supposed to apply only to the fairway and not to the rough, although some players be- lieve théy can tee up anywhere on the course except in watér hazards or bunkers. The whole situation is | ambiguous and rests solelv with the inclination of the players themselves —somewhat Iike the situation the club champion found himself in when play- ing with a duffer who came to his ball lying in the rough when Winter rules were in force. Putting his bras. sie firmly behind the ball. the duffer said: “Do you think this is a brassie lie?” “No, but it soon will be,” the cham- pion replied. All the public courses in Hast Po- tomac Park will close February 1, and Rock Creck Park may close even ear- lier. Repairs will be made to the The €oening SHtar BOYS CLUB courses while théy are closed. East Potomac Park will reopen on March 16.
