Contrast of Tech and Eastern Track Combinations May Be Offered Saturday PLAN 70 CONTEST IN THE SAME MEET FINE opportunity to obtain a | May Figure Unofficially as Devitt Opposes Castle Heights by Wire. line on the comparative strength of the Fastein and Tech mek; teams, which, with Central, are | regarded as the strongest con- | tenders for top honers in the | public high school championship meet | to be held here May 24, may be afforded | Saturday if plans are carried out. On that day Devitt and Castle Heights Military Academy of Lebanon, Tenn., are to hook up in a telegraphed meet and the Eastern and Tech teams may perform with Devitt, which may Tun off its events on Georgetown Uni- versity field. The Lincoln Parkers and McKinley tracksters, however, will not be official participants. Best perform- ances of the Devitt boys will be wired to Lebanon and in turn the Castle Heights performances will be tele- | graphed here. Then the results will be | checked and the winncr of the meet announced. ; Despite that Capt. Jack Edwards and | Alfred Richman, two leading members | of the Tech team, will be missing Satur- | day if the meet is stagad here, fans| doubtless will be able to get a rather definite idea ag to how the McKiniey | boys stack up against the Lincoln | Parkers. Edwards and Reichman are to compete in the annual interscholastic meet at Princeton Saturday afternoon Edwards will take part in the 440-yard open event, and Reichman will show his wares in the 880-yard run closed to high schools. Tomorrow will be a big day for scholastic athletes hereabout. Four base | ball games and five tennis matches are listed. Heading the diamond program is a match between Tech and Western. It will be the final game of the champion- ship series for Western, which so far has captured cne game of three. A win for Tech, which is generally expected, will give the McKinley nine three vic- tories in as many starts and then only Eastern, defending champion, will need to be overcome by Tech in the march toward the flag of Coach Malcolm Edwards' charges. To trim Eastern, though, will be a big job for Tech. it is generally thought. Tech drubbed West- ern in their 1928 series match, 13 to 6. In other base ball games tomorrow Bustness and Catholic University Fresh- men will face at Brookland; St. Alban’s and St. Christopher, old rivals, will meet in Richmond, Va.. and Hyattsville and Upper Marlboro High School teams will try conclusions in a match expected to decide the Prince Georges County, Md,, title. Western, which has virtually clinehed the public high tennis title, is to meet the Tech racketers in a match on the | Sixteenth Street Reservoir courts and in other tennis engagements Central and Georgetown University Freshmen are to battle on the latter’s courts, George- town Prep and St. Alban's, St. John's and Gonzaga are to face in Prep School T Qe LIST OF CONTESTS FOR SCHOOL TEAMS TODAY.

' ON GONZAGA NINE! STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE Georgetown University's golf team, smarting under the defeat administered to 1t last ‘Saturday by the club swingers of Princeton, are in for a busy week end. They are at New Haven looking northward and eastward toward Worces- ter and Cambridge, whence will come tomorrow their opponents of Friday and Saturday. Maurice J. McCarthy, emperor of the intercollegiate golf realm and_captain of the Hilltop par-seekers, led his team North last night hopeful of eking out Eastern_college league victories over Holy Cross and Harvard and then trouncing a team of Connecticut all-stars_to be led by Paul Haviland, former Yale golf captain, The Holy Cross match will be played tomorrow afternoon over the Yale course, while Saturday the Georgetown lads will meet Cure Offered for Not Watching Ball BY SOL METZGER. One of the most difficult things about the backswing is to keep the head from swaying. As the left shoulder comes arcund on the pivot for the drive many golfers seem to SIGHT AL COLF BALL AS YOU WOULD A QIFLE. —~ WITH A SIDEWAYS GLANCE. = sl pull the head to the right. The probable reason is that they in- stinctively feel they cannot see the ball because of the intervening shoulder. But the compact swinger, like Jones, looks at the ball over his left shoulder. If one will concentrate on simple things his or her golf will rapidly improve. One of these is keeping the head down. To’do it look at the ball. More shots are spoiled from looking up too quickly than for any other reason. A cure laid to the late Walter J. Travis was to finish the stroke and then step with the right foot on the spot the ball lay when played. Now to step on this exact spot one must keep his eyes on it after the ball gets under way. If you have trouble in looking up and thus spoil- ing your shot, try this stunt for a round or two. Get the idea indelibly impressed in your mind that you are going to sight your shot with your eyes. Bob MacDonald says it's a sideways glance at the top of your swing. VAN DYCK BANKERS | handicaps, follow: the sons of John Harvard over the same | layout. They left last night with blood in their eyes, for that victory by the Tiger team last' week sat none too well with the lads from the Hilltop. Today the Georgetown golfers are practicing over the course which will see them in action. If Georgetown Is to win the intercollegiate series they geed the victories tomorrow and Satur- ay. The intercollegiate team champion- ship proper is played in conjunction with the qualifying rounds of the in- dividual title chase which will be held at Deal, N. J., in June after the col- | leges have completed their exams. But | Georgetown hopes to annex the college team series now in progress and then move on to the intercollegiate title in_June. The match against the all-star team from Connecticut will be played Sun- day. With McCarthy are Dick Wilson, Chick Beger, Mark_Flannagan, J. Nev- ins, McBride and Bob Foley. Only a few matches have been played in the match play competition for the Perkins plate, which started yesterday over the Chevy Chase Club course for members of the Seniors’ Golf Associa- tion. In one of the three contests concluded so far, R. H. Jackson was victorious over Rear Admiral C. B. Mc- Vay. 2 and 1, and W. J. Nicholson, beat G. V. Worthington, 1 up, while W. G.

Shorey to erase the memory of that terrible 2T P 22T 27272 U.S.ROYAL No Delay No Embarrassment You Get Your Tires last nine he had at Town and Country | yesterday, when he had the qualifying round victory safely in his grasp and blew it away with a last nine in which he did everything but stymie himself with his own golf bag. Four hours be- fore Shorey started late yesterday, a lad from Ohio, James Herrman by name, who happens to be in Washington as secretary to Representative Roy Fitz- gerald, had stepped out and shot him- self a 75 to lead the two sections of the qualifying round. The occasion was all to Shorey’s liking, for the District junjor champion knew what he had to ! pos! do. And how well he did it over that first nine, He romped over the first half of the layout in 34 strokes, leaving him only a mediocre 40 to win the medal. But after the tenth hole, where he had been good before, he became rag- ged and more and more ragged, until when he had completed the last nine he had run up 46 strokes. Shorey's troubles started at the eleventh hole, where he hooked to the rough and took a 5. Another pulled drive left him in the rough and he took a 6. A missed pitch cost him a 6 at the next hole and | from then on his round was a succes- sion of errors, climaxing with a 7 on the long fifteenth hole. EXTRA HEAVY On the Spot!
