Duvall Lemon, Central guard, who was out of the golng Tuesday when Central met Western, is expected to be back in the game. It appears that the tilt will just about to pick up five or more points, but the hefty C. U. center was a big factor in the victory.

Penn got a goel just as the gun barked for intermission to lead 18 to 12 at halftime and another one of its baskets came in the last few seconds when Maryland was trying to break up the Red and Blue's freezing tactics. This allowed Lobley to get loose and dribble down the floor. Twice in the last four minutes when Maryland was within two points of Penn at 26 to 24 and 28 to 26, the Old Liners had the ball rim the basket on shots that would have tied.

All *sound basket ball coaches— “Phog” Allen, Ruby Lonborg, Meanwell, McNicol, Price, Ortner, Barry, Wittmer and others—have followed the same plan this season in breaking up the dribble. The defense drives the dribbler toward the sideline, seeking to pocket him there. The theory works out in practice, too, although like all the- orles it is dependent upon individ- ual skill and speed. If the defense Lfldvzmrc nlcrt“ nhnd sesses more speed it accomplishes K‘*purpofie. On the other hand, if the offense is more alert and is skilled in the art of dribbling, it will be able to use the dribble effec~ tively after passing mid-court and the first line of defense. When this is true, the dribble becomes an ef- fective weapon of attack in the drive from mid-court to the basket. Unfortunately, basket ball is a de- fensive game. Thus, the job of a coach 1s to overcome defense. As the defense agalnst the dribble is superfor to the offense, because the guard usually drives the dribbler to the sideline, a scheme for overcom- ing the defense at this crucial point of attack has been worked out. |averaged 15 points a game all season, was held to 12 last night, nine of 4 which he got in the first half. ooting the Catholic Uni-| “pive thousand witncsscd the contest 'aying without Substitu- | i the big Palestra. d rings around the| ‘paryland was weakened when Dean, g the edge in all|faghy guard, went out of the game on s In fact.

In their first series encounter Jan- uary 13, Tech was victor over Central, 45 to 35. It was the first time in sev- eral years the Manual Trainers had scored over the Blue and White on the court. Eastern, which stands third in the series race with three wins and as many defeats, will engage Western in the sec- ond game tomorrow afternoon. Aside from the public high cham- plonship games Emerson is the lone lo- cal scholastic five carded for action to- morrow, being down for a brush with Charlotte Hall Military Academy at Charlotte Hall. Emerson yesterday scored over Hyattsville High, 27 to 16, in the Maryland town. Alvin Buscher was the big gun in the winners' attack. | Capt. Charlie Balley was Hyattsville's | main scorer. | Friends School natators of Baltimore are booked to match strokes with the local scholastics In the Central Y tank. Five schoolboy quints were listed for action today. Emerson and Woodward were to face in American University gym, Gonzaga was to play host to Georgetown Prep on the I Street School court, Busincss was to travel to College Park to engage University of Maryland Freshmen, Benjamin Franklin and Woodward were to face in the Central Y gym and Western and Tech light- weight teams were slated for a tussle. Western scored handily over George- town Prep tossers, 47 to 31, In the Western gym. Anthony Latona, Don Garber and Bob Wilson all found the scoring range frequently for Coach Dan Ahern’'s team, which held the whip hand from the outset. McNamara and Reikopf were the Garrett Parkers’ lead- ing scorers. Central's base ball team this Spring may be decldedly up against it for capable pitchers. It is doubtful whether either Horace Duffy or Lefty Stevens, dependables last season, will be avail- able. Dufty is in school but may not be permitted to play because of his actlons in a game last Spring for which he was banished from a championship game. Stevens may not continue his studies. Capt. Frank Shore has been rated as No. 1 player of Central’s tennis team for the coming season. Others are listed as follows: Randolph Robinson, Devitt swimmers are carded for their second meet of the year tomorrow.
