You can count on that.” It has been a long time, since 'way back in 1919, in fact, when Business won the basket ball crown, that the Orange and Blue has been hoisted in a major sports series. These years have been long and hard, fraught with dis- illusionments. and shattered dreams. Fate has been cruel, passing the Stenogs by with mer- ciless regularity. Lack of material and scholastic failures have proved insuperable obstacles. But through it all the Stenog teams have been fighting the good fight, hoping against hope for the break that has never come. Through it all ‘they have been “in there battling.” And now, at last it appears that the sun is about to break through the clouds for the Orange and Blue. It looks like fate is going to give Business and Woodv a break. The series, ho ever, is mot over yet. by a long shot. Waody is quick to remind you. It does look. though, like the end of the long trail for Business is in sight. Stenogs Overthrow Tech.

In place of the center Jjump foliowing a score, he thinks, there will be substituted an out-of-bounds throw-in by the quintst scorsd upon.

The game's | Iawmakers have had the move under “comldernlon for some time, but de- | sired that colleges test the plays under | actual conditions.

For three consecutive years Mary- land went North with relay teams that just about cleansd up all the opposition they faced. Coach Eppley has not said that he thinks the four this Winter will be as good as the fours of those three seasons, but he does say that it should be strong enough to give a good ac- count of itself. It is likely that the Winter campaign will be opened with a relay race against Harvard and Penn- sylvania in the Milrose games in New York the first week in February. Maryland has one of the most strenu- ous outdoor seasons scheduled that it has ever gone through. It has dual meets with Virginia Military Institute, Johns Hopkins, Washington and Lee, Virginia, Navy and William and Mary, besides competition in the Penn relays and the Southern Conference cham- pilonships. A feature of Maryland's outdoor track season will be a resump- tion of its annual interscholastic meet This meet will be held on May 3, and have in addition to it, the same d: a dual meet between Maryland and Vir- ginia and a lacrosse game with St. John's. The new track. which is the best in the South, was completed last Septem- ber. The 220-yard straightaway is so laid out that the finish is at the same place as the finish of the hundred. The track also has been considerably widened. One of the funniest foot ball stories that has come out in connection with the last season was of an incident in the Yale-Vermont game. Yale beat Vermont, 89 to 0, and it was said of the Vermont players that it was diffi- cult to see how they so often got out of the way of the Yale ball carriers. It seems that the Vermont players were so worn out in the last half that Yale gave them the privilege of sub- stituting at any time and as frequently as they chose. Toward the end of the contest a Vermont player who had been taken out of the game ran over to the Yale ich, grabbed a Yale blanket and dropped down on the ground. One of the Yale coaches leaned over and saild, “Say, buddy, aren't you on the wrong side of the field?>” Whereupon the Vermont player replied, “Not on your life. I've been in that game five times already.” A good deal of interest of a local nature attaches to the basket ball game tomorrow night between Duke and University of Maryland. Two former Tech High players are the backbone of ths Duke quint and both have friends on the Maryland squad. One of them lives just about % mile from Coilege Park. Werber and Councillor_are the former Tech men starring for Duke and many of their friends and about the whole town of Berwyn, Md. where ‘Werber makes his home, are likely to b: &n the sidelines when the game starts. The trouble at American University which led to the disbarment of several basket ball players first arose out of a basket ball game that was scheduled by them to be played on Sunday night in Cumberland. Scme people at Cumber- land interested in the local school pro- tested the playing of Sunday games. ' The university authorities issued an edict against it, but it seems that the players went to Cumberland and took part in a game anyway, with the conse- quent recourse to discipline by the university, which was a good thing for it and for the players as well.
