In the second quarter, Gallaudet scored three times and Fastman matched this, but two of Dorothy Gambrill's shots for the visi- tors were single pointers, making the score 16 to 10 when the whistle blew Sl at half time.

It is probable that at the conclusion of these, two teams will be selected to represent each class in the championship play, as there are o many candidates in the fleld, competition is so close, that the directors feel they can organize at least eight strong squads. Whether or not this plan is carried out depends largely upon the scholastic standing of the candidates at the close of the present semester, according to school officials.

Farr “Follow In” Ever Cry of Coaches BY SOL METZGER. Every basket ball coach who knows his peach baskets stresses a point about the game all season. On each and every shot by his team he’ll be yelling, “Follow in!” The idea is to break players of the natural habit of watching the ball instead of doing their duty. There is so much similarity be- tween athletes and spectators that half the job of a coach consists of breaking the former of the latter's habits. Pretty nearly 100 per cent of those who attend a foot ball game watch the ball instead of the line opening up and the ‘interference clearing .a way. In consequence they miss the play. Basket ball players, like tators, have a like habit. Thus, win, a coach must break his varsity of this wate] the ball stunt. So, he yells, “Follow in!" He knows that if he can ever get his players to fol- low every shot they’ll get about as many goals on the follow up as are shot from a short distance off. Why? Because the opponents, nine out of ten times, will watch the- ball, standing still to do it. Olsen of Ohlo State uses a system. in follow-up shots. Three men fol- low in from the two sides and cen- ter. Hence every miss has a man ready to retrieve it.

CAVALIERS LISTED FOR HOMECOMING Will Engage Old Liners for Second Year in Row in Fea- ture November 2. U of Maryland in foot ball &t College Park again next Fall. The game, listed for November 2, will be the Old Liner's annual homecoming day affair in ‘which the Cavallers figured last season. Maryland had to do considerable re- vamping of its grid list in order to get the Cavaliers here on that choice day next Fall. In fact, it was only through the courtesy of Washington & Lee, Virginia Poly and Virginia Military Institute, as well as Virginia, all fel- low Southern Conference members of the Old Liners, that enabled the ar- rangement to be made. Virginia originally was listed to be met at Charlottesville on November 6 and Virginia Poly at Norfolk on No- vember 2, and in order to make the shifts, Maryland had to have the co- NIVERSITY of Virginia, one of ‘Washington's favorites in sport, will play the University U operation of all the institutions men- tioned above. M:yhnd‘l schedule as it now sizes up is: September 28—Washington College at College Park. October 5—North Carolina at Col- lege Park. October 12—South Carolina at Col- lege Park. October 19—(To be filled). October 26—Virginia Military In- stitute at Richmond, Va. November 3—University of Virginia at College Park. November 9—Yale at New Haven. November 16—Virginia Poly at Nor- folk, Va. November 28—Johns Hopkins in Baltimore Stadium. December 7—Western Maryland in Baltimore Stadium. October 19 was left open when the Western Maryland game, played at that time last Fall, was shifted to December 7, in the Baltimore stadium for the final encountet of the season. ‘Washington and Lee, met here on No- vember 24 last Fall, is the only team played last season, which is not again on the list. This is due to the fact that the Generals, who have & game with Florida in Jacksonville on Thanks- giving day under a term contract, did not feel that a contest was advisable such & short time before such a long trip. It is a certainty that the Wash- ington and Lee and Old Liners will get together in foot ball again in 1930 and in the meantime will battle in the vari- ous other sports. Maryland will fill the October 19 date shortly, either at home or as and there is a possibility that a big be it ity tee permit of another trip, and if the eleven in question can come, Maryland stands rugy to book the contest. If not, the Old Liners will rest from November 16 for the two games that follow on Thanksgiving and December 7.
