Meets at Navy Reveal Unusual Prowess of Georgetown Freshmen Tracksters SURPASS VARSITY | IN SOME CONTESTS Maryland Shows Comebacki in Lacrosse—Gallaudet | Having Good Year. l | Georgetown revealed more track and |, field strength than expected in win- ning_from the Navy by 75 to 51, and another surprise was the showing of the freshmen and plebes, compared with the varsity. | In six_events, five by the Hoya cubs, the vearlings' winning marks were bet- | ter than the varsity'’s. Coleman of the plebe team bettered varsity times in two races, and a mate, Shinn, made the longest discus throw of the day. Briggs, Kelly and Parlett, George- town freshmen, had superior marks. | Here are the comparisons: | 22 yards—Coléman (Navy plebe), 223-10 #seconds; Wildermuth (Georgetown varsity), | 225010 seconas 440 vardsBriggs (Georgetown freshman), 50 9-10 seconds: Shotter (Georgetown var- sity). 51 1-10 seconds. ~Keily (Georgetown 1 e : By rds freshman). m: | Kiellstrom (Geore- | 5.

Maryland supporters are well pleased | with the Terrapins’ lacrosse showing | against the strong Army team. T® de- | feat by 6 to 2 a team that was beaten | only 4 to 3 by St. John's was something | of a comeback for Maryland, mnslder-’ ing that the Terrapins’ only loss was to the Johnnies. ‘ Bill Evans of Maryland and Ferris | Thomson of St. John’s now are tied for | the national lead in point scoring. | Evans has made 35 goals in eight games | and Thomson 35 in 11. The Terrapin | likely will finish on top, however. He has three more games to play and | Thomson only one. i Incidentally, Maryland held the Army | to the lowest score it has made this | season. Snitz Snyder is off the Terrapin squad. He hasn't reported at practice since last Tuesday. Chapman took his | place in the Army game. | Gallaudet is having & banner Spring | season. It has won consistently in base | ball and has copped two track meets for a clean slate. For several years there has been a feud on between track and base ball supporters at Kendall Green. There was talk of cutting out base ball, which is expensive, and booming track. The diamond game really has been on trial this Spring, and Coach Wally Krug’s men have a right to feel they have furthered its cause. ‘The lacrosse fever has spread to Vir- ginia Military Institute, at Lexington, Va., which sent a prospective coach to Maryland this Spring to study the game. Practice has been started and a team will be put on the field next season, it is understood. ‘Tomorrow comes the outstanding base ball clash of the Spring between fresh- men.

The Castle Heights team ran oD I Rec its events off on its home field and the FOR ALL BRITISH District teams staged their tests on OPEN CHAMPIONSHIFS, the Eastern track. The best perform- ances were exchanged by wire. | St. Alban's came through with an |8-6 win Saturday over Christ Church nine at Richmond, Va., to end a losing streak and also its annual Southern trip. The hardest test of gameness in a big golf tournament is to take the lead and hold it. When Walter Hagen caught Leo Diegel in the third round of the recent British open championship and then kept his lead through the last round he merely gave further proof to the well known fact that he is one of the gamest, as well as one of the most skillful, of all golfers. He likes best to be behind, for then he fights hardest, and, oh, how Sir Walter loves a good fight! But ahead or behind, this home-bred golfer has now won four British open crowns in the last eight years, and finished second in another. It is quite possible that he may yet equal or better Harry Vardon's record of six victories in this greatest of all goif cham- plonships. Tn 1920 Walter Hagen, then United States open titleholder for the second time, went to England to play in his first British open. He finished a very bad fifty-fifth, but gave no excuses, merely saying, “I'll be back to try it again.” The next year he was tied for sixth, and he won in 1922, was second in 1923, won again in 1924, finished in a tie for third in 1926, won for the third time last year, and is now champion for the second year in succession. All hail this 37-year-old wizard of the links! This Beau Brummel, who started out to be an ambidextrous base ball pitcher, then got a license as a taxidermist, and finally took up GOLF, which he turned into GOLD to the tune of $50,000 to $i5000 a year!

And a course | that will wreck their scores as easily as it would wreck the score of the | variest duffer who ever swung a club. On an ordinary golf course it takes a bad shot to get in a trap. But at Pine Valley even the good shots get in traps. The golfers who play there know they are going to get in traps—and they have to like it because sometimes traps are the only places the ball can go. | Two_niblicks should be placed in the hands of any man who plays Pine Val- ley for the first time. If only one is used it is likely to become so heated as to be unfit for use. Yet the course is eminently fair. There is a place for every shot and the | fairways afe not narrow.

Bend this arm and your club is off its arc. Bobby Jones believes in this straight left arm and gets it by body turn or pivot. See to it that you take your driver back with such an arm, and then bring it down again in the same way, slowly at first and without jerk, else you will not keep your balance. That means improper swinging. As I have sketched Barnes at the point of his downswing, where he begins pounding through with his right-arm poke for distance, see to it that you get your club back to this point without bending the left arm. Until then keep the right hand and arm a passenger. AUTO RACE CANCELED.
