NDOOR TRACK CARNIVAL IS LISTED HERE MARCH 6 “C” Ciub Will Stage Games for College and High Schools at Arcadia~——Hall Is Found to Offer Adequate Space for Competition. DFINTTE aoneuncement was mads last nizht by Al Stern, member of the newly ap- pointed exerutive commiftee of the “C" (lub, composed of former letter men a. Central High, that the elub will stage its first indoor championship track meet at the Ar- cadia Saturday evening, March 6. This decision was reached after President Sylvan King called a special meeting of officers and members of the executive comm! port from Allan A neer and me % the club, the poseibil siaring games in the uptown hali 50-Yard Straightaway. Minnix reported that it will be pos- | eible 1o stage a fegular set of games on a circular track 14% laps to the snfle and a 50-yard straightaway, allow plenty of spare space. Theé cireular track woull hardly be ac- eeéptable except for the fact that the committee immediately decided to use banks on the turns, constructed ac- cording to the very latest specifica- % tigns. The event 18 to be un invitation one, open only to schools and colleges. In making the decision to st the mes the officers-of the “C" Club feel that they will he coming to the rescue in a season that threatened to g0 by without showing an_event of the kind in Washington or Baltimore. This fact had been pointed out follow- ing a decision on the part of the Johns Hopkins University of Baltimore to discontinue its annual earnival. While the:local meet hardly will be as pretentious as-that staged annu- nlly in Baltimore, the “C” Club direc- tors promise an event that will be at- tractive to both contestants and spec tators. Provision will be made for the # \.necommodation of approximately 2,000 persons, and, according to present plans, seats will sell for $1 and $1.50, with a limited number of box seats as to set of | at $2. Nothing definite will be announced now as to the game, but it is fairly certain that it will include the usual quota, interspersed with relays in which high and prep schools nd col leges of Washington, nearby Ma land and Virginia will be represent Will Send Invitations, Invitations will be sent out immedi- ately to the various institutions rep- resented by track teams.

Gold, silver or bronze medals will be awarded in each event where four or more entries are received. In addi- tion there will be team and individual point trophies. An effort will be made to transfer the Cornell alumni cup oftered by the local branch of the Cor- nell Alumni Association from the an- nual outdoor “C” Club games to the indoor event, in view of the fact that the start of the new meet undoubtedly e discontinuation of the out- usually held in the late Spring. John 8. Blick, president of the Arcadia Amusement Co., is deeply in- terested in the event and has mani- fested his interest by promising a trophy to be awarded as one of the team prizes. D. C. SCHOOLBOY TOSSERS - WILL HAVE A BUSY WEEK *Main Interest Lies in Title Series Clashes Carded for Tuesday and Friday—Many Other Attractive Contests, Though, Will Be Offered. HIS will be an extremely busy week for basketers_of the local schoolboy group. Chief inter- est attaches to the public high school titular engagements on ®uesday and Friday afternoons at the Arcadia Auditorium. Tuesday, Eastern and Business will fash in the first game of the double- eaderat 3:15 o'clock and Central and Tech will take the floor immediately @fterward. Matches between Eastern #nd Western and Central and Business mark Friday's card. Eastern Uncertain Quantity. Eastern on Tuesday, will be making fts bow in the series, while Business, conquerors ech last Friday, will e striving for its second victory. Just how Eastern will fare in the series is conjecture. In the opinion of most eritics, chances of Chariey Guyon's charges making the showing they did gast Winter, when they fought to a tie for the title with Central, are ad- mittedly rather slim because of the gact that only two members of last sea- son’s sterling five, Capt. Cy Hogarth @nd “Beanie” McAllister, are at hand. Coach Guyon, however, has been doing a deal of experimenting in pre- geries games, and there are indica- tions, including recent wins over Emerson and Strayer's that Eastern will show stronger in the series than many expect. A Central-Tech athletic contest al- ways has distinction, and while the Rive and White, that Friday lowered the colors of Western, which was reckoned with Central ‘as the chief contenders for the diadem, is a heavy tavorite to vanquish the doughty little Manual Trainers, the encounter will not lack for color. Tits in which Western will play host to Mount St. Joreph's of Balti- more on’ the former's floor, and St. John's will mix with Strayer's in the City Club gym, are carded for tomor- row. Other Attractive Games. In addition to-the public high frays, Devitt i listed for a go with Episcopal on the latter's floor in the junior pre- paratory school 135.pound league. The opening clash in the loop set for last Friday betwoen Woodward and Friends was postponed to January 28 because of iliness among Friends' players. In another match Tuesday Woodward School junior tossers will entertain Franklin School of the Bal- timore Y. M. C. A. on the local Y. court. A mixture of senior and junior Woodward passers scored a 37-to-18 win over Franklin last Thursday in Haltimore.

LI records for sport participa- tion have been broken at Mount Vernon Seminary this A year, where every girl in school, with the exception of a few who were physically disqualified, has competed in one or more athletic actlvities. In the Fall there were six hockey squads organized, whick included practically the entire student . Large numbers have turned out for riding, dancing and swimming. and the call for basket ball recrults met with almost unanimous response. Eight teams were formed beforé Christmas and first and second team basket ball geries run off, The Junior Firsts won the first team series, scor- ing over the Yellow Firsts in the final game. Second team honors were cap- tured by the White Seconds, who up- set the “dope” by scoring over the Senior Seconds in an unexpected thriller. The Seniors were the more experi- enced players, and wers favored to win by a safe margin, but the Whites, staging a late rally, turned the tide. Training for the varsity squad will begin tomoryow, according to Marion Wallace, the new physical training director, who comes to Mount Vernon from the Sargent School of Boston, Mass. Miss Wallace plans to hold workouts twice a week during the next two menths, rotating all of the players who are trying out for varsity positions, in a series of practice games, with a view to developing several players of equal ability for each posi- tion. Her final selection of the squad will not be made until just before the annual game with Madeira School, the only interscholasti contest scheduled. March b is the tentative date set for the Madeira game, although negotia- tlons have not been completed. Mount Vernon tossers scored a 32-to-23 vie- tory over their seminary rivals last year and hope to put an equally strong team on the fleld this Spring. An indoor swimming meet to be staged in March will feature the tank season at Mount Vernon. Swimming practice begins tomorrow afternoon. Class teams will be organized in this sport as in the others and spirited competition is expected to develop in ‘WOMEN IN SPORT BY CORINNE FRAZIER: slated to” meet Sfanley Carr at 8 Mfs.

CHICAGO, January 8.—Selection of a successor to Coach Glenn Thistle- thwaite as head foot ball mentor at Northwestern University will be an- nounced January 15, Kenneth L. (“Tug’”) Wilson, athletic director, an- Dounced tonight. Wilson declared that he has re- ceived applications from all over the country, but that final action would not be taken for a week. He asserted that Jack Rvan, Herb Steger and Tim Lowry, $vho were as- sistants to Thistlethwaite, doubtless would be retained, but he added that no definite appointments would be made until the new head coach had been named and consulted. Rumors that Chief Brady, veteran trainer, might also leave Northwest- ern to accept an offer from another institution were denied by Wilson. “Although we regret very much to lose Coach Thistlethwaite and Dunn, the latter to Harvard, we are glad that we have had such good men, but they are sought out by other schools,” said Wilson.

After winning three championships by big margins, the Navy was asked before last season to change to asso- ciate membership and not to enter a team in the finals. It complied, but it is believed that several other teams are now stronger and will offer better competition. The Military Academy and Temple College were also invited to enter, but the officials of the former decided not to become a member.
