Wal- ter E. Blount. Al girls and women in this section are eligible for this tourna- ment, which was won last season by Christine Ekengren of Holton Arms School. In order to keep the competition the limited time allowed for run- ning off the matches, it has been de- cided to limit the list of contestants in the championship rounds to 12. In the event of entries in excess of this num- | ber, preliminary eliminations will be ar- ranged for by Maj. Blount, who may be | reached at the University Club. Contestants will be ~ restricted, of | course, to amateurs and to those using he French method. The matches will be judged by fencers who have repre- sented the United States on Olympic teams for the most part, and will be governcd by the rules of the Amateur Fencers' League of America.

George Washington University co-ed markswomen maintained their title as intercollegiate indoor range champions, winning the 1929 N. R. A. event by a margin of 30 points over the University of Maryland co-eds to register their third successive triumph. The Colonials totaled 2,974. Maryland's total was 2,944. Carnegie Tech. in third place, turned in a score of 2921. The winners’ score is two points bet- ter than it was last year, but not up to the record made in 1927, when G. W. fired 2,991 for the highest total which ever has been registered in an inter- | collegiate championship. The high five scores in each of the three stages counted for record, but only those girls registering the high | five totals will be eligible for the N.R. ' A. medals to be awarded members of the winning and runner-up teams. Silver medals go to the following high scorers of the championship squad: Marjcrie Leighey, 295; Naomi Crumley, 293; Helen Prentiss, 294; Helen Taylor, captain, 290, and Roberta Wright, 285. Bronze medals will be awarded these five Maryland shooters: Margaret Mitchell, 295; Felicia Jenkins, 286; C. Gause, 285; Elizabeth Garber, 284, and Hazel Kreider, 284. Consistently high scores have marked the inter-team matches on G. W.’ schedule this season. In a telegraphic affair with Penn State last week, the co-eds dropped but two points for a 498 total, and against the University of Washington they fired 497 out of the 500 possible. No girls’ team in _the country has ever maintained such a steady record of high scoring as has the Buff and Blue squad during the past two years. On Saturday, the University of Mary- land sharpshooters will visit G. W. for the annual shoulder-to-shoulder affair, which in the past has been a triangular shoot. Drexel Institute, which com- pieted the trio, is not firing this season. ‘Word has been received from the Penn- sylvania school that it expects to be in the running again next year, however. Following Saturday’s maich, the Colonials will entertain their visitors at a banquet to be given at the Tally-Ho Tavern to which members of the faculty and several prominent alumnae have been invited, among them, Katherine Schumaker, Ermyntrude Vaiden and Mae Huntzberger.

NEW YORK, March 21.—The battle of the Hockey playoffs takes up again tonight where it left off Tuesday with very little accomplished in the way of deciding which teams are to enter the next round. Boston again is the scene of the second game of the serieg be- tween the Bruins and Les Caneéiens, first place winners in their division. New York's two second-place teams, the Rangers and Americans, will con- tinue to warm the ice of Madison Square Garden in their struggle for even one goal, while Detroit becomes the guest role in the third place play- off, going to Toronto for the second game. ‘Toronto is the only one of the six teams engaged in the multiple world series of hockey which gained an appre- ciable advantage in the opening night's encounters. The Leafs go into the sec- ond half of their two-game series with Detroit with a two-goal advantage in this series, as in the second-place play- offs, the total number cf goals scored counts. With the advantage of home ice, Toronto is an overwhelming favor- ite to go into the semi-final game against one of the New York teams. will be among the honor guests as will Miss Eugenia Davis, Miss Evelyn Jones and a representative of the N.

Juniors were leading, 6 to 3, at the half, but the Sophs forged ahead to turn the tide in their favor before the final time was called. Betty Hartman, regular Junior forward, was absent from the line and Catherine Crane, the regu- lar center, filled her place. Julia Hough- ton, reserve center, gave a good account of herself in Miss Crane's regular posi- tion. Juniors exhibited superior teamwork in the opening session, but Sophs out- played them in the third and fourth quarters. Mary Haley scored six of the winners’ points. Katherine McCandless and Mary Lee Watkins did some neat work in the backfield, where they were faced with the difficult problem of guarding Miss Crane, who outreached them, and Miss Shippe, who is suffi- clently fleet of foot to keep any guard A.
