It will not even house properly the - @i alono ac mmodate all the stugents on fresh- ams and the others taking part ss play and general physi cal education Another factor that the Blue and Gray alumni might well note is that Georgetown is not going to get the kind of basket ball games it desires until it acquires a suitable playing floor. Most of the colleges of any size now have regulation playing floors, and all these colleges in arranging their schedules make every effort to list opponents that have gymnasiums Pugh is likely to lead off for Mary land, with Whiteford second, Thomas | cs third and Matthews s Catholic University last night beat | one of the best-looking basket ball | teams that has been in Washington in | a good many ye After the firs five minutes of play, probably not one spectator out of the hundreds present | thought C. U. had a chance to beat | et it came through with 23 victory that is all the more | creditable in consideration of the strong opponent from which it won. Fordham started a second team against the Brooklanders and that combination after six minutes of play had the count 10 to 2 in its favor, With a second team In the game and Fordham leading 10 to 2, things seem- ed anything but optimistic for* the home five. C. U. got another goal, and with the count standing 10 to 4 in its favor Fordham sent its first string men out on the floor. That first-string five fairly dazzled the spectators for a minute or with its rapid cutting and more passing, but it made slips and C. U. took advantage of them. A goal from far out by Foley carried C. U.'s total up to 6 points, then two shots from the foul line brought it up to eight, and immediately after another goal by Long tied up the count. The first half wound up with C, U. on the long end of a 15-to-12 count The second half found the Brookland- ers playing desperately against a faster and better passing team, and the spirit and energy they put into thetr play gradually enabled them to forge ahead and hold their lead. Some- times the lead was held by the “skin of their teeth,” it is true, but it was held, nevertheless. Fordham had every appearance of belng the better hasket ball team: that is, every appearance except abi ity to score enough poimts to win. Had that second-string combination not run out in front so easily, it is possible there might have been told a different story. While the second guess always is best, psychologically it did not seem to be the best judg- ment possible to take out that group of second-string players who were do- ing so well. Fordham meets Georgetown tonight and will endeavor to make up for its defeat of last night. The New York- ers are likely to find their fine pass- ing game at a decided disadvantage against the Blue and Gray, as that kind of floor game does not show nearly so well unh on a big floor. Georgetown's floor is too small for basket ball and any team that is not used to it Is likely to have its hands full. The edge is taken off the game at Georgetown tonight somewhat by the defeat of Fordham last night at C. U, but great rivalry exists between the two institutions and Georgetown will be especially anxious to win, inas- much as C. U. was victor. And with Fordham anxious to retrieve its lost laurels, a real contest should result. In speaking of that Georgetown gymnasium it might be mentioned right here that if some of the Blue and Gray ingtitution's _influential alumni desire to do something worth | Washington must other buildings with regulation s. It has almost come to the where colleges simply will not dule games with other colleges that have floors that are too small for PALACE FIVE HOLDS LEAD AS IT RESTS The league-leading Palace Club will play nothing but practice games for the balance of the week, prepar- ing for clashes at the Arcadia next Sunday and Monday with the Chica- g0 Bruins and the Fort Wayne Caseys, both of which they trimmed in clashes in the first half of the season, In the first place by virture of 36-t0-29 victory over the Roches- Centrals last night at the Arcadia, watch the other teams in the American Basket Ball League crawl upon them. The vaga- ries of the schedule place all the other league teams in action during the week while Washington has no other game listed. Elmer Ripley was the outstanding star of the hard-fought game last night, looping in a couple of floor goals, which put the contest on ice for the home folks after Rochester had staged a rally that threatened to win the game. Although Washington led 16 to 12 at half time, Rochester stepped out early in the second period with Pier- son and Grimstead leading the scor- ing and went ahead 29 to 28. Then Ripley started his-fireworks, coming through with a cluster of four points, and adding another two-pointer on a pass from Saunders. Topel of Rochester was banished from the pastime when he objected to some of Referee Billy Lush’'s de- cisions. Tonight Washington departs for New York State to engage in three ex- hibition games. The Fort Plain quint will be met tomorrow night, Amster- dam Thursday night and Schenectads® Friday night. following which a day’s rest will be in store for the local play ers before entertaining Chicago Sun- day night. a te PRO COURT LEAGUE.

Virginia Monk ac- counted for the other 10. The game was won in the backfield rather than the forward fleld, however, for it was the alert guarding of Iras Burroughs and Catherine Doomis which made scoring difficult for Rosedale and kept the ball headed toward the Iowa goal the major portion of the time.

NCE PERRY. EW YORK, February 1.—Act- ing at the request of William Roper, Princeton's foot ball authorities will take steps at the proper time this year to end scouting, so far at least as Old Nassau and her rivals on the grid- iron are concerned. Represenations will be made to uni- versitien whose teams are to meet the Tigers in important games next Fall. Naturally these approaches will in- volve nothing In the nature of a demand, merely a suggestion, and if one or more decides that they prefer not to take a step drastic that will be all right. 1t is likely that Yale and Princeton will continue _ their non-scouting arrangement. Princeton wants _to and nothing has been heard from Yale to indicate the plan was mnot satis- factory to the Elis. Ohlo State will be queried as to her willingniess to meet Princeton in this respect and so will Cornell. In spéaking of the practical work- ing out of the innovation with Yale, Roper said that every one at Prince. ton .had been ‘immensely pleased with it. “I observed the players closel he sald to the writer today, “and I found that they were getting more of a kick out of making their own plans to checkmate any offense that Yale might spring than they everdid in preparing a defense on the basis of scout reports. Was a Players’ Game. “You would see the players talking together, taxing their imaginations to figure what Yale might or might not do and how they should proceed in ven emergencies. “The result was to make of the Yale- Princeton game a players’ game and not a coaches’ game. Yale was able to spring some very nifty tricks which went very well and would have gone better it negotiations had broken right for them. And they could not be used against Harvard because the Cam- bridge scouts had observed them at Princeton. “1 don't say scouting is bad, but 1 do think the elimination of scouting makes for more sportsmaniike condi- tions. “And there is the practical consid- eration of economy. Adequately to scout Ohio State we should be obliged to spend at least $1,000. And so, of course, with Ohjo.” Roper added that his policy next year would not involve concentration upon the final November contests, as was the case when the Big Three was intact. ““The Ohio State game,” he said, “will in every respect count as a big game for us, and I think it will be demonstrated that the old theory that only Harvard or a Yale game can fill the Palmer Stadium is erroneous.” As the basket ball season progresses the State of Indiana is consolidating its reputation as the greatest of all States in this lively sport. Year in and year out, as a matter of fact, the Hoosier colleges turn out better teams than anywhere through- out the land. Since Butler drubbed Yale by a 40-point margin some years ago, Kastern cage outfit avoid Old Indiana, and Western Conference fives probably would like to. Aside from Indiana and Purdue, which belong to the Big Ten and are now in third place in the basket ball race, with prospects of improved standing later, colleges of the State |have created havoc in the midlands. Franklin, for instance, has beaten the great Wisconsin five this season, thereby maintaining an undefeated record against teams coached by the gifted Dr. Meanwell. Notre Dame this season has defeated Minnesota, Jowa and Northwestern by impressive scores and yet has lost to Franklin. And this little Hoosier Baptist College considers that it {s having only a fair season. Also there is Wabash, which has defeated lowa 28—18, Northwaestern 38—31, and Purdue 41—32. And Wabash has lost two straight games to that little institutlon on the Ohfo River, Evansville, which, by the way, has trounced Vanderbilt' and Georgia Tech quintets this season. Butler, always a flash in the court game. beat Coe the night before the lowa toseers defeated Jllinois. And the scalps of Marquette, Michigan State and Chicago also dangle from the Butler belt. Outside of the Indiana Conference, Franklin, Butler, Wabash and Evan: ville have not lost a game, but when they meet in their league contests it is & case of dog eat dog and all these teams are wearing scars. Even De pauw, which is legging in the Indian Conference, has gained the satisfaction of comfortable vic- tories over Purdue and Georgia Tech. Georgia Tech in barnstorming through the West has taken heatings, but, on the other hand, has picked up a lot of inside knowledge of the game, and this is likely to show in the Southern Conference tourney next March, Curious thing is that in Boston and vicinity there i{s no Interest at all in this great Indoor game, no pub- lic iInterest at least. And eo far as the writer could find when he was in this section last week the schools and colleges go in for the.sport, if at all, in a most perfunctory way. It is the one region in which the sport lacks a firm and compelling grip. et R TR S STRIBLING TO TRY HAND IN HEAVYWEIGHT CLASS NEW YORK, February 1 (P).— Young Stribling has been matched to box FEddie Huffman, Los Angeles heavyweight, at Madison Square Gar- den on February It will be the fi attempt of the Georgian to gain a place in Tex Rick- ,\rd'n heavyweight elimination tourna- ent SPORT With the HILE Ollle Webb did not 7 even equal the District “pot” bowling set record at the Arcadia alleys last night when he toppled 466 duckpins in his three games, he prob- ably got the best total made since Perce Ellett hit his 468 at the Coli- seum on March 10 last. Webb's score is easily the best heard of this Winter. 1t is unfortunate that Webb did| not make the count in league competi tion. Had he rolled such a score with his team, Jerry's Stars of the N tional Capital League, he would have established a record for organized Jeague bowling. The present league set mark is held by Harry Dixon, an Aggle howler, at 445. Webb in a private match last night hit for games of 117, 200 and 149 in the order mentioned. FEllett's scores last vear in his match with Lonnie Krauss were 166, 151 and 151. In a day when so many athletic games are the subject of suspicion it is pleasing to the bowling fan to realize how favorably his game is re- garded in all quarters and how uni- versally it is found as part of the best clube, the Y. M. C. A., the Knights of Columbus and similar organizations, writes in an ardent follower of the duckpin game. “The sport has even furnished ma- terfal for sermons,” he says. .'“Not many years ago the Rev. J. W. Ross minister of Calvary Presbyterian urch in Buffalo, had a popu lar sermon on ‘Strikes, Spares and Splits.” Among other things he said: | Of many fine results from bowling contests, the good fellowship promoted deserves special mention. The game illustrates the worth of all natural and legitimate life interests, the neces- sity and value of co-operation and the possibility of fellowship in competi- tion.’ “One of the strongest factors in the ever-increasing popularity of duckpins is_unquestionably the fact that it is one of the most sociable of pastimes— the bowling alleys are really social centers, developers of friendliness and democracy. It is not unusual here to find the head of an office or establish- ment bowling on the firm quint along with the office messenger.” Bronson Quaites, captain of the| Beeques in the Washington Ladies’ League, finished in fine style in the final game bowled againat the Kum- backs recently. She ended the regula- tion 10 frames with a_double-header strike, then with her first extra roll knocked nine pins off the alley, but missed the remaining pin with the second extra roll. That gave her a total of 48 for the last two boxes and a game of 120 that heiped raise the team total to 534. Billie Niner, one of the veterans of the Washington Ladies ue, seems to be regaining the duckpinning stride that once made her so formida- ble on the drives. Bowling for the Frankies last week, she started poor- Iy and got only 73 in the first game. She rallied in the second, however, to hit 108, finishing with a spare and a strike that netted her 37 pins. Probably the biggest match on this week's schedule of the District League will be rolled Friday night at the Coli- seum. Stanford Paper Co. and King Pins will be opponents. The Conven- S.
