SPORTS. PART-TIME CARDS PLANNED BY HOYAS Bright Ring Program Needs| Support—4 Basket Ball Games Tomorrow. BY H. C. BYRD. EORGETOWN plans to sell memberships in its athletic association in order to enable | the general public to watch its boxing matches this Win- ter, and, more than incidentally and not the least important, to help raise funds to support the team and other forms of Winter and Spring sports. Athletic Director Lou Little made known his plans this morning, and said that while it would be a nice thing for the university to give free tickets as it did last season, it would not be possible to continue that practice. It is the intention of Hilltop authori- ties to sell a ticket good to admit the bearer to all Winter sports, including boxing and basket ball, and to all Spring sports. This ticket is to be sold at a reduced price and will simply be a season’s membership in the George- town University Athletic Association. It is possible also that a five-day mem- bership ticket may be sold to meet the desires of persons who desired to see only one or two boxing matches. No decision, however, has been reached in regard to the last mentioned method of handling tickets. Georgetown has one of the best schedules any school in this section has arranged. The Blue and Gray has six matches and some of {hem with the | strongest teams in the intercollegiate | world. The schedule opens next week | with Western Maryland here, then fol- low matches with West Point at West Point and Navy at Annapolis, and after that New York University, Penn State and Dartmouth appear here on Febru- ary 22, March 1 and March 8. No decision has been reached as to where the matches will be staged. If the demand for tickets is great enough, the Auditorium will be engaged and the bouts held there. If there is not suf- ficient demand for tickets to warrant that, then the bouts are pretty sure to take place in the Ryan Gymnasium on the Hilltop. Navy.put up a great battle against Pennsylvania in basket ball yesterday at Annapolis. It was the first real test for the Sailors and they really thought they had an excellent chance for vic- tory. and they did. The score of 27 to 26 by which the Navy lost indicates Jjust how close the competition was. It seems to be a part of the Navy make- wup in athletics to rise to emergencies, and, while a Navy team sometimes plays raggedly against mediocre op- ponents it always seems to have that form of real courage which enables it to pull together and do its best under the most trying circumstances. That quality was shown yesterday and the e against the Quakers was a real credit to losers as well as winners. Last Fall the writer was of the opinion that much of the Navy's com- paratively poor showing in the early part of its foot ball season was due to the untimely death of Myles Fox, counted on at the ing of the gen' to_be the greatest back Navy ever 1 Yesterday at Annapolis it oc- curred to the writer to ask one of the Navy gridiron coaches’ opinion of that. ‘The answer of the Navy coach not only corroborated what was thought, - but presented a view of his own and other coaches’ feelings that was both frank and interesting. ‘“The death of Fox not only put a damper on our squad for about half the season and almost knocked out all interest, but it just about killed the coaches as well. Not only the player, but we ourselves just did not have the pep to throw into handling the squad. With the squad itself way off form and we, who were supposed to teach the squad, feeling just as blue and upset and low in morale, you can just bet that the unfortunate accident you mention had its effect on our early season showing. It is remarkable to me that we recovered so well as to accomplish what we did accomplish to- ward the end of the year in defeating Pennsylvania and Princeton.” Four basket ball games in which téams of the District college group will figure are carded tomorrow night. None are listed tonight. All contests are set for home floors. Georgetown will entertain Penn State in the Amer- ican University gymnasium, University of Maryland will play host to Johns Hopkins at College Park and Catholic University will have Villanova as its 1':::? in the Catholic U. gym.

Tech, which is heading the title race with four wins in as many starts, has a game outside the series with Catholic Uni- versity Freshmen at Brookland. Gonzaga defeated St. John's, 26 to 14, in the opening match of the Dis- trict Prep School Basket Ball League in the Boys' Club gym, and Central swamped St. Alban’s, 55 to 10, in floor | games yesterday.

Two floor games involving schools of -the District scholastic group were card- ed today. St. John's and Business were to meet in the Stenog gym and Rock- ville High and Georgetown Prep were to clash at Garret Park, Md. Eastern, which stands in the public high series race with two wins against one defeat, is favored to take the meas- ure of Central, which has lost all three of its ‘starts so far, but the Blue and ‘White yesterday showed plenty of power in drubbing St. Alban’s and also did well against University of Maryland Fresh- men Wednesday, and may make a stronger showing against Eastern than generally is expected.

A brisk scoring spurt in the last half carried Gonzaga to victory over St. John’s. It was the first meeting of ath- letic teanrs of the schools for several seasons. St. John's was handicaped in the late stage by the absence of Slagle, center, and Atchison, guard, who were banished for personal fouls. At the half the score was tied at 7-all, and there seemed little to choose between the teams. Bussink and McVean were big guns in Gonzaga's attack, while Slagle, Hud- son and Gallagher did virtually all of St. John's scoring. The score: Gonzaga (26) GFG.

They defeated their rivals in straight games, 29-17 and 17-16 and it marked the first victory of the Se- niors over the Juniors in interclass sports this season. Juniors previously had won the hockey series, 2 to 1; the volley ball circuit by the same count, and the archery contest. Points are credited for each victory on the interclass record, and in addition individual points are scored in each activity under the sys- tem approved by the National Amateur Athletic Federation. Seniors still have a good chance to win the interclass trophy, which will go to the group having the largest point (Cummings, Stallholz and Hawtin): second, Central (Thomas, Varela and Bodine).

COLUMBIA BASKETERS OPEN WITH VICTORY By the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, January 17.—Columbia, the tail-ender of the Eastern Intercol- legiate Basket Ball League, a year ago, has made an auspicious debut for the 1929 season. In the first league contest of the year last night Columbia trounced the strong Princeton aggregation by a 32- to-25 score after letting the Tigers do most of the playing for the first half of the game. At half time Princeton led and seemed headed for a wider magin, when Columbia staged a rally at the start of the second half that netted 17 points in 7 minutes. Gregory, sophomore center and Magurk, veteran forward, were the scoring aces of the Lions team, collecting 22 points between them. Columbia does not return to league competition again until February, 6, when the Lions play Dartmouh at Han- over. Princeton gets another chance this week, playing Dartmouth in its fourth league game. Dartmouth is at the bottom of the standing, having lost both of its league encounters. With one victory, Columbia is just behind Pennsylvania, which has won two es. Yale and Cornell complete the week’s schedule with a game at, Ithaca which may bring a few changes in the stand- ing. The Elis have won two games and lost one, putting them in third place, ahead of Princeton, while Cor- nell lost its only league contest to Princeton. COLLEGE HOCKEY.

TROUSERS To Match Your Odd Coats EISEMAN'S, 7th & F A INVENTOR OF GAME DEFENDS TOSS-UP Dr. Naismith Sees No Need to Change Play-Starting in Basket Ball. By the Associated Press. LAWRENCE, Kans, January 17.— Dr. James Naismith, originator of bas- ket ball and a member of the faculty of the Univarsity of Kansas, is not in sympathy with the suggestion of Dr. Walter Meanwell, coach of Wisconsin, that the center toss-up be eliminated. “Why should we take from the game an interesting phase, the center toss-up, and start the game with a pass in from outside the court?” asked Dr. Naismith. “No other game starts outside the court or fleld. Hockey and foot ball begin at the center.” “There is no fairness in limiting or handicapping a team because it hap- pens to have a tall center,” Dr. Nai- smith said. “If we do we might as well penalize a foot ball team because it has a 30-pound center.” “At the Kansas-Oklahoma basket ball game here the other night I kept a tabulation on the result of the cen- ter tip-off. Only 50 per cent of the times the tall center got the tip did the ball go into the hands of a teammate.” ‘The toss-up at center always has been a part of basket ball. MILWAUKEE, Wis,, January 17 (#). —The present rule in basket ball which calls for a toss-up at center to put the ball in play is termed unsportsman- like by Dr. Walter Meanwell, Wiscon- sin_coach. The Wisconsin-Chicago game, in which the former beat the Maroons, was an example, said Dr. Meanwell. The fact that the Wisconsin center was two and a half inches taller than his opponent and consequently out-jumped him, won the game for Wisconsin, the coach said. “The advantage of getting the tip- off at center means no less than 8 or 10 points and it is due almost entirely to a natural physical advantage which cannot be overcome by determination, study, skill, fight or team play. “T believe that the play in basket ball should begin with the ball in possession of one team, out of bounds, at the end line and that as each goal is scored the ball should be given again, alternately, to each team at the end line.” PLAYS IN THREE GAMES WITHOUT PERSONAL FOUL CHICAGO, January 17 (@)—If roughness of play can be accurately de- termined by the number of personal fouls called, Irving Nelson, Towa’s flashy forward, is the smoothest sharpshooter in the Big Ten basket ball champion- ship campaign. In three conference games not one personal foul has been called against Nelson, who is second to Wilcox in indi- vidua! scoring for the Hawks, with 26 ints. ‘Tenhopen, Wisconsin's rangy center, has the most personal fouls—14 in four games.

Member Joint Rules Committee. Question. If the jumper taps the ball twice in the air before catching it, is he then allowed to tap and catch the ball on the second jump? Answer. No; it has been ruled that an air dribble does not comply with the spirit of this rule. (Copyright, 1929, by the North American Newspaper Alliance.) Speed, Passing, Accuracy Needed BY SOL METZGER. THUMBS BEHIND BALL = efyi— Although basket ball offense and defense are constantly altering to meet conditions, the fundamentals of the game—passing, shooting, dribbling and so on—remain the same. No attack today is worth a glance unless the individual players know how to pass. It may seem strange to many the great amount of attention given by coaches to one little point. Pop ‘Warner, Stanford’s foot ball coach, spent many weeks perfecting the linemen in the steps that brought them out of the line and into the interference so splendidly. Waiter Meanwell likewise works like a Trojan in teaching his Wisconsin basket ball players the pivots and turns and shots his team uses on the court. Michigan gives a similar time to perfecting its passing game. Speed is the watchword. Again the finger tips come into use. Note how the ball is held for these long, quick passes. Thumbs back of it, finger tips gripping it exactly opposite each other. And a mere shove out of the ball from the chest turns the trick. You can learn to pass a ball in this manner to a running target and never miss. Important where the ball strikes a player. Never above the chest. If it were high, it would blind his view and cause a fumble. Best way to learn this pass is to form in a circle with six or eight players and let them run and pass promise cuously. (Copyright, 1929.)

That doesn’t sound very con- sistent, but it has been known to happen that a bowler ap- parently gets 10 pins with the break ball, only to be disappointed. Such an incident recently occurred in one of Washington’s youngest duckpin leagues. One of the stars toppled nine pins cleanly and left the tenth standing in such a position that the removal of deadwood was impossible without the leaning pin falling. An argument immediately arose among the members of the two teams dnd league officials. Most of them claimed a clean strike for the bawler. Others thought the pin should be re- spotted. The president of the league was called into the dispute. He declared that he though the bowler was entitled to a strike, but suggested that the box be rerolled. After some dispute as to whether he ‘would reshoot the box, the pinman, who had considered himself robbed of a strike, furnished the big surprise by getting a clean strike. According to the National Duckpin Bowling Congress rules, which now are generally accepted as official, the pin that fell with the removal of dead should have been reshot. Paragrap! No. 12, headed rules and regulations of the N. D. P. B. C,, reads as follows: “The deadwood must be removed from the alley after each ball rolled. Should any pins fall in removing the dead wood, such pins must be respotted.” In the instance cited, the bowler profited by the ruling of the league pres- ident. The bést he could have hoped for after the pin had been respotted would have been a spare. Instead he was credited with a strike. Such instances seldom occur in the small pin game. It has happened so seldom in local circles that few bowlers are acquainted with the official ruling in such a case. To the average alley fan if a pin drops when dead wood is removed that pin is credited to the bowler and not respotted. FROZEN aw CRACKED AUTO ENGINES Welded in the Car WELDIT CO. 1st and F Sts.

Carroll recalls staging a low-score tournament in Southeast Washington 22 years , and he believes it would go over with a bang. ‘The rules are simple. The idea is to get as few 1Pms as possible without roll- ing the ball off the alley. For each ball thrown off the drive the contestant is given eight pins.

ARMY & NAVY TRADING € 8th & D Sts. N.W, o meets and it now appears that this ‘Winter there will be just one megt open to them, the annual games sponsored by University of Virginia at Charlottesville, February 22. It has been announced that the meet annually staged by the University of Richmond in the Virginia capital will be abandoned this year, leaving just the one fixture on the books, as it is not thought probable that the Johns-Hop- kins-Fifth Regiment games in Balti- more will be revived. Tech and some of the other schools here, however, may be represented in the Meadowbrook games at Philadelphia and in other meets at a distance. ‘While the University of Maryland interscholastic meet will be suspended this Spring, there will be much more competition at hand for the schoolboy athletes in the Spring than during the Winter campaign. The Maryland meet will not be held this year because the athletic field has been torn up in order to improve it. Should Tech decide not to hold an indoor meet, it is highly probable that the T Club will put on a relay carnival along with several special events early in May, and if this affair proves suc- cessful it will be held annually. With the annual C Club games, the yearly Devitt meet, the Catholic inter- scholastic tests and the public high meet definitely listed, the scholastics will get a deal of action in the outdoor sea~ son, particularly if the Tech meet is hed. For the younger athletes the an- nual grade school meet will again be staged, as will the yearly interplay- ground championships. Devitt wil hold- its meet April 20, either in the Central Stadium or at eGorgetown University, to open the Spring list of meets. May 11 has been set for the annual Catholic interscholastic meet at Cath- olic University. May 18 is the.date for the C Club games and May 24 for the public high school meet. Grade school athletics will compete in their annual meet May 25 on Plaza Playground. No date has been set for the junior high school championship tests. Should the annual meet for the Catholic parochial schools of the Dis- trict be renewed, it will be held May 1 at Catholic University. District schools likely will be repre- sented in the Penn Relays April 27 and in various other meets at a distance during the Spring campaign. MONTREAL PICKS CAMP.
