Georgetown and Maryland Select Relay Teams : Lateral Pass Is Disapproved: BOTH FOURS WILL RACE IN NEW YORK THURSDAY Iso Have Wildermuth and Wisner in Competition—Catholic U. Boxers and Hoya and Old Line Fives Win. Hilltoppers BY H. C. BYRD. EORGETOWN and Maryland are putting finishing touches on their relay teams for_ the New York ‘The former while Millrose meet in Thursday night. its quartet Saturday. G picked Maryland made its final selections yes- terdsy in tryouts on the three-lap board track at Georgetown. Following the Millrose meet, Georgetown goes on to Boston where it is to take part in a championship two-miler relay against Harvard, Dartmouth and lowa State. The Blue and Gray relay is to be made up of O'Shsa. Gorman. Cranley and Hoctor. In add to the relay four, Georgetown w!" have in_ com- petition, Wisner in t1.° nole vault and Wildermuth in t srints. Coach John O'Reilly thinks o s men will have 2 cood chance in relays and also in the events in which they are entered as individuals. Georgetown's opponents in the relay race will be New Hampshire State Col- Jege and Holy Cross. both of which are aid to have the fas Holy Cross ran against New Hampshire last week and barely won by a vard, while it defeated Harvard by a big margin. Georgetown Wwas anxious to arrange a second race with New York Univer- sty but was unable to do so because of the lack of desire on the part of the latter. It seems that having won the first race by a scant yard the Goth- | amites did not have any particular hankering after another setto with the Blue and Gray. John O'Reilly, coach at Georgetown, feels that his team would win a second race, because it was on account of & mistaken way of running of the second relay that caused the loss of the first. O'Reilly thinks that mistake has been corrected. Marylan he of Yale. | | d&'s relay four will be made | tthews. ran 3 Hoaas third and Matthews last.

In an early season tilt this Winter the Car- dinals won, 29 to 20. The Methodists are apt to find C. U. particularly diffi- cult to beat tomorrow, however, as Fred Rice's proteges will be striving to get back on their victorious path after los- ing to Virginia, 21 to 22, Saturday, for their first defeat of the season. George Washington tossers also are listed for action tomorrow night, being down to play host to Roanoke College in the Colonial gym. The Colonials will have available all their dependables, ex- cept Sapp. who has left school. Joe Rangley, who made his debut with the G. W. team in its winning game with the University of Baltimore Saturday night, also will be on hand. Rangley looked decidedly promising in the game with the Monumental City quint. Superiority in the lighter weight classes and y!he fact that Joe Lazarus of Fordham defaulted because of ill- ness in the 115-pound class, gave Cath- olic University boxers a 4-3 victory over the New York collegians in the open- f | ing match of the season for the Card- inals, last night in the gym at Brook- land. Had Lazarus fought it is virtual- ly certain that the Maroon glovemen would have triumphed as this boy is their ace. Lazarus was a member of the American Olympic team in 1924 in the | bantamweight class. Sharp battling marked all six bouts. In the best affair, Battler Byrne of C. U. vanquished Piazza. The local scrap- per gave an unusually® clever exhibition. Mickey McGuire of the Cardinals won over Joe Murphy in the 125-pound class after brisk battling and Capt. Don Greco of C. U. scored over Tom Robinson in a lively tilt in the 145- pound competition.

It may be that the growth to major importance of the University of South- ern California and the great favor which the Trojans enjoy in the south may have resulted in some resentment over a team from the north represent- ing Callfornia at the Tournament of Roses. A California friend, denying that this may have something to do with it, says that California, Washington and Stan- ford have ington and Jefferson, Notre Dame, respectively. He o, that methods of ticket distribution —whatever they may behave caused resentment in Los Angeles and neigh- boring centers, But they say that Los Angeles crowds are apt to yell even against teams of their own section. Has any one the answer o this? smer—Chatles | O “first place in the league race by | BY O. B. KEELER. At Pinehurst between Christmas and New Years I encountered three young musketeers battling around in the closing bouts of the Pinehurst Mid winter golf tournament, which George Dunlap, a tow headed youth with as much knee action as a cham- pion trotter, was winning for the third time in succession, defeating Gen>» Homans for the second time in two years. s George is one of the young mus- keteers and Gene is another and Phillips Finley is the third, and I will now take up Finley because he showed me the longest driving I had ever seen in a single round of tour- nament play. Without assuming to speak with authority, I may also express the opinion that there never was a tournament round of longer driving, with no help from hard turf and with no better than an even break from the breeze and the terrain, on the No. 2 course. You may recall that Finley elec- trified the scribes last season in the national amateur championship at Minikahda, where most of them agreed that Finley now was our very longest walloper. Well, he was wal- loping them farther, at Pinehurst, in losing his semi-final match to Dunlap on the twentieth green, after a great struggle. I fancy the plain, unvarnished figures will set off the story better than oratory. Let me state that these distances are not estimated; I paced each of the 14 drives re 'STRUGGLE FOR K. C.

Washiugton Stec Long-Walloping Phillips Finley range counted, from the ball to the pin. They are, to all intents, accu- rate. They were made on soft turf with small roll. The tee-shot on No. 10, for example, went 270 yards uphill against the breeze, and-rolled just 2 feet. The wind was about neutral. Some drives it helped, others it handicapped. Here is the list, No. 2 course: N 1—315 yards. 2—325 yards. 3—275 yards. 5—270 yards. 6—285 yards. 8—275 yards. . 9—300 . 10—270 y . 11—300 . 12—290 . 13—290 . 14—335 1 . 16—300 § . 18—270 These 14 drives (the short holes of course are excluded) total 4,100 yards, or an average of 293 yards each. Not one was seriously off-line. Finley lost the twentieth hole with a slight push-out of 275 yards, the ball going into a wagon rut, but not off the course. It is the most tremendous list of tee shots I ever saw in one tournament round. Finley is a tall, raw-boned, quiet, dark youngster of 20 years. I think the secret of his enormous power is in the very long arc of his swing, good body work and terrific wrist action. He will bear close watching this year. and St. Paul's, 33 to 22. Mulhall was the winners' offensive star. Two victories were chalked up by Petworth Metropolitan passers, who humbled Phl Sigma Kappa, 36 to 24, and the Lucky Five, 45 to 17.
