SP ORTS. THE EVENING STATR, L ialav, WAoo, - Strong Varsity Fives to Play Here : February Big Sporis Month at Annapolis STEVENS, DAVIS-ELKINS TOSSERS ON LOCAL CARD Jersey Quint Here to Meet Maryland and C. U. and West Virginians Are to Clash With G. W. and Georgetown—Fordham Team Victor. BY H. C. BYRD. WO strong basket ball teams, one from New York and the other from West Virginia, | come here today for two games. Stevens Institute pl at University of Maryland tonight and at Catholic University tomorrow night vis-Elkins meets George Washing- his evening and Georgetown to- morrow. Records of these quints available, but in al probability the local schools will get all the com- petition they want, perhaps more. Stevens has intact practically the same team that last year beat the best quint Maryland ever had, which should be enough information con- cerning it as far as Maryland is con- cerned. Davis-Elkins is said to be just as dangerous in basket ball as it was in foot ball, and for the last two years that college has had gridiron teams capable of providing tough opposition for_anybody. The game at Maryland is to begin at & a'clock; the one at George Wash- ington at 8’ are not Georgetown and Maryland have re- lay teams at the Millrose games to night in New York. The former is to compete against Notre Dame and the latter in a race with Harvard, Pennsylvania and Virginia. George- town is fairly certain of winning its contest, but Maryland has much less chance unless its first runner is able to get the pole on the jump. Run- ning a relay race with four teams on a three lap track is not an easy matter by any means and much de- pends on what happens in the first 50 yards. The Millrose meet usually is the biggest thing in the way of a track and field meet of the year indoors. 1t is under the auspices of the John ‘Wannamaker stores and nothing is left undone to make the meet a bril- liant affair. Usually the best college teams and best athletes of all sizes and ages are brought from the North, South and Middle West. No better performances are to be 'seen any- where in indoor track and field ath- letics than in the Millrose game. Stevens Institute and Davis-Elkins have chances to distinguish them- selves in their games here tonight and tomorrow night. They meet the best the National Capital has to offer in basket ball. Stevens tonight will meet in Maryland a hard team for any quint to beat and tomorrow night goes against a Catholic University five that two nights ago took the measure of a great Fordham team. Davis-Elkins plays George Washing- ton tonight—and George Washington has an experienced quint—and tomor- row night goes over to battle a Georgetown team that is mighty hard to beat on its own floor. Stevens In- stitute always has a well coached quint, but just how well coached Davis-Elkins is will not be known until after its games, Coach Burton Shipley of Maryland's basket ball squad -says that Gallaudet | ward positions on bination, favor i locals in te second half. v all but one member University boxing team that will op- pose and Lee at Brookland next Monday night. Tim Riordan and Joe Riccardia still are in the running for the 115- pound class will do the 125-pound fighting, while Capt. Byrnes gets the 135-pound job. Ed Tierney will pound division and Joe Tierney in the heavyweight class, 175-pound ' task to John Malevich. < who would make for- any team in the countr hipley is thus liberal in his tribute to Dyer and Cosgrove. “I have never seen two more natural than Dyer and Cosgrove, could make team in the nothing they can- not do, and they are just about 90 per cent of Gallaudet’s team, and that is not disparaging in the least the capabilities of the other players. Both are good shots, accurate passers, fast, and, above everything else, very in- telligent. Those two fellows look mighty good to me.” And it has two playet might be mentioned that Shipley this morning also paid a rather high compliment to Coach Fred Rice’s Catholic University team as a result of its victory over Ford- ham Monday night, said Shipley “Everybody gives Fordham credit for having brought here a great team, and there is no doubt it did look good at times with the fast passing in the middle of the court. But any team and look good with that kind of pass- ing. The good passing that actually counts is that done to enabie a team to get one or two of its men clear under the basket once in a while, and the Fordham passing never did that against C. U. Fred Rice had his men under the basket blocking the passes, intercepting the ba!ll crowding the receiver so that, so far as I was able to see, Fordham got only two clear shots at the basket during the entire game, and both those were missed. “On the contrary, C. U. men worked their way under the basket for clear shots many times, and to my mind C. U.’s passing actually was much better than Fordham’s in that it was much more productive of getting men in clear scoring positions. I think Rice's team beat Fordham because it played better basket ball. Fordham might have won had it battled as hard throughout the game as it did in the last few minutes, but that does not de- tract in the least from the fine game put up by C. U.” Fordham came back last night 'to show the way to Georgetown's five in a 80-to-12 game in Ryan Gymna- sium. The Maroon, although going into.action with a second-string com- outplayed the Hilltoppers from the start and triumphed handil At half time the score was 13 to 4 in of the visitors, and they did just about as they pleased with the Coach Teddy Mitchell has selected of his Catholic the squad from Washington position.

A get- together dinner and bridge party, also is planned by the club for the Roose- velt about March. 1. The last regular meeting of the organization was devoted largely to consideration of plans for the Presi- dent’s Cup regatta. The board of trustees reported work was to be begun immediately ‘on the addition to the clubhouse authorized last season and also on a number of tennis courts. Newest members elected include Lieut. Comdr. S. S. Yeandle, John Hays Hammond, Rudolph Jose, Arthur J. Harpett, Elmer Dyer, Clarence Bruce, William F. Seals and Stanley Horner. Maj. Gen. Edgar Jadwin, chief of engineers, has issued instructions to bring the Diesel electric dredge Wil- Jetts Point from New York harbor to begin dredging operations on the lower Potomac River near Colonial Beach, Va. The soil will be deposited at points several miles down the river from the scene of operations. There will be no interference with work on nearby oyster grounds. The work will consist of dredging a 24-foot chan- nel about 3 miles long through Kettle Bottom shoals. A survey party from the local office has been sent to make & detailed survey of this area and set buoys to guide the dredging. The Willetts Point will be used in the other deepening projects between . Washington and Kettle Bottom shoals. The Americ: Boat Building Co: has completed and shipped to Lake Eustis, Fla., the Genetta, a_36-foot V-bottom day cruiser which it has had under construction for Frank T. Hodd.

Fgan has for years been a_ tip-top golfer and his ideas about the grip have the backing of years or more of personal experience, so the theory is a pund one and may do other golfers some good. Here it is: Egan says that nearly all golfers sense the necessity of getting at least one or two of their fingers out of the Wi He always was conscious him- self, he asserted, of too many fingers- about eight of them, apparently, would be enough. So he experimented with the little fingers, first leaving one off the shaft, then the other. Observe Fig. 1 and you will see Egan’s final, and, he says, most suc- cessful method of amputating the bothersome finger from the grip. As it turned out, the one to get rid of was the forefinger of the left hand. In the sketch you see the three re- maining fingers wrapped around the shaft, with the thumb extending around the shaft and resting on the second finiger; the forefinger projects out, the only remaining thing neces- sary, Egan says, being to find some place merely to carry it through the swing. In Fig. 2 we seg how the right hand s brought in—the left being backed up against the right hand. The left thumb, you will note, is outside the right hand not palmed in the right palm This ields several useful results, Egan explained. First, it loosens the wrists wonderfully at the top of the back swing. Second, it puts the left- hand grip at the back end of the wand instead of at what might be called the forward end. This . gives the maximum hand leverage against the shaft, which is what you want at the moment of impact. Also, the little finger is much stronger than the fore- finger and has work to do for the. left hand, whereas, he discovered, the left forefinger has’ practically nothing to do with the hitting blow. It puts the left thumb also directly behind the shaft, where it should be for greatest effectiveness. Sarazen used a grip something like this, but I think Egan has a much sounder idea of a really scientific ap- plication of the fingers. 3 (Covyright. 1927.) Both Epiphany Church quintets— the Roses, one of the fastest senior combinations in the city, and the Midgets, a classy junior team—will travel to Manassas Saturday after- noon to engage teams of Swavely School. The Roses are in third place in the senior loop and ran up an impressive string of victories before dropping a game to the Clovers. Both teams will be in charge of Doc Rogers on the Manassas junket. Anacostia Eagles, well on the road to another unlimited clrampionship, shoved another contender from their path, trouncing the Calvary Metho- dist Episcopal tessers, 31 to 20, in a fast and well played, game. Terminal Y. M. C. A. floormen downed the Laurel NationalsGuard quint in the Rallroad Y gym, 33 to 10. Several stars of other guintets have been signed by Wally Wolowitz in organizing a new court combination, to be known as “Bond’s Whirlwinds,” to play in senior and unlimited ranks. ‘Whirlwinds will play Pullmans in the Terminal Y gym tonight. Parkway Motor Co. tossers were to journey to Warrenton, Va., to engage the Warrenton A. tonight. Arrow A. C. cagemen downed the Auth quint in Congress Heights gym, 31 to 15. Palace Original Five defeated the Mount Rainiers, 44 to 17, in the Naval Reserve gym. Optimists trouncel the Stanton Juniors, 28 to 13, and Elks stopped the Scouts, 24 to 6, in the Junior League battles at the Boys' Club. Holy Name Midgets encountered ligtle difficulty in trouncing the Pals, 2 to 9, at Congress Heights gym. Y. M. C. A. Juniors fell before the clever attack of Mount Vernon on the Y court in a 25-to-16 clash. Clover passers of the senior loop downed the Pullman quint, 47 to 21, in a game at the Terminal Y. Representatives of the dozen teams in the senior lcague voted last night to split the season into two parts, with the winners of the half seasons to meet for the title. A motion that the Clover-Calvary game, played before adoption of the eligibility rules, be re- played, was adopted. Both Company F teams of the Mar land National Guard of Hyattsville will swing into action tomorrow night on the Hyattsville Armory floor. Reg- ulars will meet the Arrows of Wash- ington and Reserves will clash with the North Carolina Church quint of the Sunday School League. Clovers will engage the Regulars Saturday night, The Hyattsville Guardsmen are en- trants in the 1st Regiment titular series and will ‘meet strong opponents from other, parts of Maryland.

BALTIMORE TOSSERS SURPRISE ROCHESTER Two upsets marked games in the American Basket Ball League, the professional loop, last night. While Washington's Palace club outfit was idling, awaiting a scheduled league game mnext Sunday, the previously easy Baltimore Orioles celebrated the accession of Johnny Beckman by run- ning roughshod over the Rochester Centrals, 42 to 31. The result was a distinct surprise, as Baltimore ended the first half of the league season in last place. Philadelphia, victors over Cleve- land, fell before the determined attack of the Fort Wayne Caseys, 45 to 28, in the other upset. Cleveland showed consistent form in trouncing Chicago, 41 to 28, fea- turing accurate passing and shooting. POTOMAC FIVE TO PLAY. Potomac Boat Club basketers are to face Woodlothians tonight in Cen- tral High gym, starting at 8:30 o’clock. With Capt.

Lowrey, will wind up its cam- paign on Tuesday Before ringing down the curtain the Manual Trainers, aside from their game tonight with the Maryland yearl ings at College Park, probably will take on either Hyattsville High or Boys’ Club Celtics, Saturday night at the Arcadia Auditorium. In its final contest Tuesday Tech will face Strayer’s Business College at the City Club, starting at 3:30 o'clock Although the Manual Trainers will lose a group of stalwart performers by graduation the coming June, in- cluding Capt. Auggie Terneak, Dan Galotta and Edwin Smith, guards, and Buck Gaskins, center, there will be available as a nucleus for next Winter's combination, Louis Berger and Pat Rooney, both sturdy court- men. Berger piayed a bang-up game at center and forward in the recent abbreviated championship serfes, and Rooney gives promise of developing into a clever forward. Central High tossers, who squeezed out a 31-t0-30 win over Strayer's yes terday after a gallant uphill fight, ‘are to visit Hyattsville tomorrow to en- gage the high school team of that place on the National Guard Armory court. The Blue and White's tilt with Catholic University freshmen carded for today has been canceled. In the only other tests involving scholastics tomorrow Eastern is to engage St. Johr's and Emerson In- stitute will mix with Catholic Univer- sity freshmen. Strayer’s held the whip hand over Central during the first half of their battle vesterday, which ended with the_commercial boys in the van, 18 to 7. The Coggins-coached combina- tion, however, led by its sharpshoot- ing forwards, Forrest Burgess and Pete Nee, got the range in the second half and gradually overhauled Coach Sanborn's fi With one minute to TECH HIGH QUINT TO END ITS SEASON ON TUESDAY play, Joe Croson, who flashed a fine game for Strayer's, received two foul shots and after making the first good to tie the count at 30 all, missed the second. A moment later Bill Crouch, Central guard, caged a shot from the free line that gave the Blue and White victory. It was a sweet triumph for Central, as early in the season Strayer’s nosed the former out in a thrilling mate 20 ¢to 19. Exhibiting a sure-hitting attack an a rugged defense, Georgetown Fres! men turned back the fast Gonzag combination, 31 to 16, last night fn the preliminary to the FordhamG. U.

Army Has Edge. The Army has won four basket ball games from the Nevy and the latter has been victor three times. On the form displayed by the two teams up to this time, the Navy should win and_even up the serfes, but experience has shown that the result of service school games in any sport has little to do with the previous showing of the teams. Intense interest is always shown in boxing matches at the Naval Acad emy, and they will be the only athletic events scheduled for the Sat- urday evenings of the month. The Navy opens with Massachusetts Tech on Flebruary 5. Georgetown, Penn- sylvania State and Catholic Univer- sity following in that order.

The wrestlers have an outstanding contest when they meet Oklahoma Agricultural and Mechanical College on February 12. This team won the championship of the Missourl Valley Conference last year, and it is claimed that collegiate wrestling in that seo- tion is considerably above the stand- ard of the sport in other colleges. Much interest will also be taken in the match with Yale on February 19. Yale not having appeared in a Navy schedule in this line for many years. In swimming, water-polo, gymnas- tics and fencing, the Naval Academy will not meet its most dangerous foes until March. However, the matches in swimming and water-polo with Syracuse on February 12, are likely to furnish the Navy tank men with stiffer opposition than they have had up to that time. — HAWKING MOTOR CO.
