THE EVENING STAR, WASHING STORTST Navy to End Sport Season, Excep LACROSSE BATTLE T0 FEATURE CARD Middies to Meet Maryland. Ohio State, Notre Dame Are Other Foes. A athletic season next Sat- urday, with the exception of the participation of its crews| in the Paughkeepsie Regatta, with the three events which were| scheduled in the branches in| NNAPOLIS, Md., May 28.—| Navy will close its Spring which it had previously met the Military Academy, and which will form a part of the “June week” | program. | 1t will meet the University of | Maryland in la crosse, Notre Dame on the diamond and Ohio State on fleld and track. While all these events will have elements of spe- cial interest, the la crosse game with Maryland is the only one in | which a special rivalry will bc} manifested. Maryland was the only lacrosse team which defeated the Naval Academy last year, turning the trick twice in the yeguiar season and in the Olympic series, and Maryland and the Navy were two of the four lacrosse teams which were assigned the leading posi- tions for the year. Navy has not lost a game this year, though its schedule did not bring it against ds hard opponents as those which were met by Maryland. Of special interest in connection with the track meet with Ohio State will be the presence in competition of | George Simpson, the fiying sprinter of | the Buckeye State University and hold- er of the intercollegiate and world rec- | ord for the 100-yard dash. While the Navy and Notre Dame have no special rivalry on the dia- mond, the appearance of a team rep- resenting the latter is always attraes tive, | All the events will be held in the! afternoon, the track meet beginning at 1:30, the lacrosse game at 2 and the base ball match at 3:30. Immediately after the “June week” exercises, the varsity and plebe rowing squads will resume work in special preparation for the Poughkeepsie races to be held June 24. The squads will be coached by Richard A. Glendon and Charles Walsh, respectively. OLD LINERS TO “COAST ALONG” FOR NAVY CLASH Maryland's lacrosse team will coast along this week in tuning up for the Navy game at Annapolis Saturday. This clash will decide the ruling team in the Intercollegiate Lacrosse League, as St. John's unbeaten twelve, which | downed Maryland, is not in the organi. | zation. Navy has won all its eight games; Maryland has won 9 of 10 starts, Navy, which has not played as hard a schedule as Maryland, and the Old Liners have similar records. Navy, in its eight battles, has scored 86 points to 14 for its foes, for an average of 103, goals a game to 134 for the oppo- sition. Maryland, in 10 engagements, | has counted 103 times to 16 for fits opponents. This is an average of 103-10 points a game to 135 for its rivals. Maryland played smooth and skillful lacrosse when it beat Hopkins last Saturday, 6 to %, until it ran up a 5-to-1 lead in the first half and then it loafed along to the finish as the entire Navy squad looked on from the stand. Bill Evans. Maryland's in home, as- sured himself the lacrosse scoring championship of the country, when he counted threc times in the Hopkins game. His total is 39 goals for 10 games against 37 for Ferris Thomsen, St. John's in home, who is runner-up. No other player is within 15 goals of Evans. He has scored on every team which he has faced and hopes to keep his record clean when the Old Liners meet Navy. PIGEON OWNER SOUGHT. F. S.
