FEED T» FACE Three Teams at ITH the first contest of the se just two weeks away, the varsity sport teams at the University of Maryland are busy getting ready for inaugural battles. Burton Shipley, base ball mentor: Jack Faber, lacrosse head coach, and Geary Eppley, tutor of the track squads, have been putting their charges through the paces with good results, and the Old Line aggregations should be in form when called upon for games. Faber has had to rush his lacrosse team, as he will meet a tough foe in the opener with New York University at College Park two weeks from tomor- row. Scrimmage has been the order for the stickmen, and Faber has used the following first team most of the time: Kelly, goal; Dodson, point; Crothers, cover point; Heagy, first defense; Wil- son, second defense; Loane, third de- fense; Chapman, third attack; Roberts, second attack: Holloway, first attack: Beck, center; Evans, out home; Snyder, in home. Smink also has been used a t deal of the time at some attack position; Efi stein is making Kelly hustle to hol the job, and others have good chances to break into the first twelve. Only Champman was not on the var- sity squad last -year, and Dodson, Crothers, Heagy, Wilson, Loane, Hollo- way, Snyder and Evans were regulars. 1f Shipley had a first baseman for his ball club who “sock the old apple,” he would be happy. Otherwise, with the ROD AND Last Thursday the two amended fish ‘bills introduced in the Maryland Legis- lature to place a restriction around the tection to the large and small mouth bass in tidewater streams were passed by the Senate of that legisiative body. The bill now goes to the House, where | it is expected to meet little or no oppo- tion. The bill, as passed by the Maryland Senate, provides that the operations of the purse netters shall be confined to the waters of Chesapeake Bay, and the season for these commercial fishermen opens July 15, instead of June 15, under old law.

Radice is holding down second, Derr is at short and Gaylor and Wilson are battling for the third base berth. Be- sides Leschinsky, he has Kessler, Jones, Tansil and Kay for the outfield, with | the first three holding the upper hand at present. McGann will do the bulk of the catching, with Higgins and Covington | to help out, while Phipps, De Marco, Batson, Boublitz, Hess and Milburn comprise the hurling corps. De Marco and Boublitz are southpaws. All the players mentioned were on the' varsity last year, with the exception of Gaylor, Derr, Jones, Kay, Hess and Milburn, who came up from the 1928 yearlings.

It was the rubber game of the season between the teams, each having defeated the other once, Despite the fact that Capt.

Led by Harris and Hall, the latter a freshman, the home team early gained a commanding lead and was in the van all the way. At the half, Howard was ahead, 21 to 12. In the second half the Bisons steadily in- creased their lead.

AR GRIDDER, T T0 YALE TEAM | L0S i been learned exclusively that Harlan (Hoot) Ellis, Yale's brilliant quarterback in foot ball and equally will ‘never play the grid sport again. This loss is of paramount importance to Yale because of the fact that Yale was depending on Ellis to be_the key | man of the 1929 backfield. Ellis’ in- ability to play foot ball will take from Yale its fourth and last regular of the 1928 eleven’s backfield, the others being Garvey, Decker and Hubbard, who will be graduated with the class of 1929 in une. . Ellis can not pate in foot ball again because of what is known in athletic circles as a “trick” knee, Except for the danger involved in twisting of any kind, Ellis’ knee is strong and the injury does not interfere with walking or running—provided the | running is on a straightaway and does | not take place on a track that includes even the slightest of turns.
