Gallaudet’s winning streak among local colleges was broken when the Kendall Greeners fell before George Washington, on the Colonials’ court, 31-21. George Washington put a crimp in the scoring spree of Del Cosgrove and Johnny Ringle, first and second among Washington collegians in point totals. They got three field goals between them. Corgrove, guarded by the Colonial captain, Bob Gray, was unable to score until after 31 minutes of play and then on a substitute with a chance shot from midfloor. Ringle was stopped by Bill Hoover and Bill Blaine. 1t was a struggle all the way. albeit George Washington took an early lead and held it to the finish, having a mar- gin at half time of 17-14. Both teams played with exceptional spirit and personal contact spills were frequent in the second half, with Gray of George Washington and Brown of Gallaudet receiving injuries that called for treatment.

Lowell 1 BY RUSSELL J. NEWLAND, Associated Press Staff Writer. AN FRANCISCO, February 13.—1It was just one year, one month and thirteen days ago today that those who find their thrills in foot ball gasped, sighed and laughed alternately at the antics of a blonde young giant by the name of Roy Rie- géls, who just had run 75 yards the wrong way to pull one of the prize “boners” in all gridiron history. ‘Today Roy Riegels, with the brand- new title of assistant foot ball coach at his alma mater, the University of California, laughed, not last, but at last, at the foot ball misfortunes that were his. Strictly on the merits of his great pluglng last season, when as captain and center he led California to a four- way tie for the Pacific Coast Conference champlonship, was els chosen to help mold future Bear elevens. His ap- tment, announced last night by the executive committee of the assoclated students, was matter of fact. But those who remembered realized that the foot ball year of 1929 had been a long, tough grind for one brawny youngster who stayed to “face the mob” when m: lnmlzr would have dropped out of sc Riegels’ run will never be forgotten by those who witnessed it, read of .t, or heard of it over the radio. A review. briefly, is essential. The place, Pasadena’s Rose Bowl. The occasion, Georgia Tech vs. California in keen intersectional rivalry. The time, New Year day of 1929. Out of the scramble of legs and arms popped the foot ball, fumbled by a Georgia Tech man. Riegels, playing a fierce game at center, scooped up the oval and began a goalward dash. Only he ran the wrong way—toward the goal line defended by California. Deaf to the shouts of his teammates, Riegels thundered down the field, run- ning as he never had before. Only Benny Lom, fleet halfback, was able to overtake him at the 2-yard rine. Realizing then his mistake, Riegels turned. but opposing tacklers swarmed over him., \ On the next play Lom tried to kick out of danger from behind his own goal line. The kick was blocked and Georgia Tech scored 2 points on a safety. Only 2 points, but they cost the California Bears a victory that was doubly bitter because they had outplayed their rivals as far as game statistics went. ‘The 8-7 defeat and the incident lead- ing up to it were charged off to “‘breaks” of the game, and Riegels’ teammates promptly showed their faith in the young fellow by electing him captain for the ensuing season. Riegels made good to the extent that he was named all-Coast center on most of the any | teams selected. As one of the assistants to Head Coach C. M. “Nibs” Price, Riegels will instruct the “goofs,” those doughty, un- sung heroes who act as shock absorb- ers for the varsity elever. And that is the story of the comeback of Roy Ric- gels, reverse runner. NORTHWESTERN FIVE AIMS TO BE WRECKER By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, February 13.—Its chance of finishing in the first division of the Big Ten basket ball race wrecked by two defeats this week, Northwestern's only intergst in the campaign now is to attempt to damage the records of the leaders—Purdue and Wisconsin. Although they played improved bas- ket ball last night, Northwestern's Wildcats suffered a 39-to-31 defeat by Indiana—their second by the Hoosiers and their fo of the season. he m of difference was provided by the splendid work of Branch Mc- Cracken, Indiana center, who score eight field goals and a brace of foul shots, to go into the individual scoring lead with 75 points in six games. Defeated by Illinois and Indiana this Whatever glory is possible; by, peinine wi er glory is possible, by gaining another victory over Wisconsin at Madi- son Saturday night. Northwestern de- feated Wisconsin, 23 to 14, in the open- lnq contest of the Big Ten season, the only black mark on the Badgers’ record. While Wisconsin attempts to square accounts with Northwestern, Iilinois also will be seeking revenge from Min- nesota. Minnesota scored a somewhat surprising victory over the Illini at Min- neapolis last week. Indiana appears certain of adding a conquest t} week’ when Chicago in- vades Bloomington. Purdue will complete the first half of its season Saturday night at Ohio State, and is favored to score its second vic~ tory of the season over the Buckeyes.

This was announced following a meeting of faculty advisers of the schools yesterday. The main reason for the decision to transfer the games back | patc! to their former scene is that of the hardship it imposes upon the Western team, which, it was contended, would find it hard to get to Eastern for a lnmetaat 3:30 o'clock with school clos- ng at 3. It was because of the short right field at Central that the games were shifted to Eastern last year. It is known that there also was a deal of dissatisfaction With the Ieft-fleld situation at Eastern. The running track cuts through a part gluhfl field at the Lincoln Park insti- ution. Single games on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays instead of double-headers on Tuesdays and Fridays is being consid- ered for next Winter's public hth school title series. The matter will left to the principals of the schools. It must be decided within the next week as the 1931 schedule must be drawn within that time.

Martin, Swiss representative in three Olympic games, who wears the colors of the New York A. C. during his visit to the United States, ran the odd distance of 800 yards. There was only one basis of comparison for his time, the outdoor mark of 1:43% set by Mel Sheppard 20 years ago. Martin did not threaten that | record, but he ran the distance in 1:4645 under much more difficult con- ditions. Since the 800-yard distance had never been contested indoors before, Martin's mark established a record. Tromas Brennan of the New York A. C., tried to offer some competition to Martin, and took the lead going into the final lap, but the Swiss ace left him 10 yards be- hind at the finish. Willlam Schneider of the Paulist A.

Athletic affairs at Transylvania, oldest college west of the Alleghenies, were in & muddled condition today with the announcement that present foot ball basket ball coaches will not be back next year and a number of students so disgruntled that several, including athletes, have staged a walkout. Dr. Elmer G. Campbell, president, last night confirmed a report that James A. Elam, athletic director and head foot ball coach, and C. A. Webb, head basket ball coach and assistant foot ball mentor, would not be offered new contracts. “Internal friction” and “the in- ability of the coaches to work together were given as the reasons for the decision. At the some time it was learned that most of the 20 leading foot ball players are out on what has been termed a strike, have lost jobs that paid some of their college expenses and may be unable to continue their studies, Transylvania hac the most suc- cessful foot ball season in several years last Fall, holding Center to a scoreless tie in a game that marked the golden anniversary of the first Al Reichman, captain of the High, team, won the 880-yard run in the Meadowbrook games yesterday at Philadelphia.

In the play here shown, No. 1 is the center, He taps the ball to his left rear, and the No. 5 guard rushes up court for it. No. 1 immediately runs to his left in order to draw the opposing center out of the course No. 5 plans to follow, a move that incidentally prevents the opposing center from breaking up the play at its inception. As No. 1 breaks to the left No. 5 dribbles around him to his rear and to the right and has a clear way to the basket. When a guard comes up to take a tap a forward always replaces him for the moment, in case the opposition should secure -the ball. That is why No. 3 breaks back into No. §'s area at the start of the play. Note how for- ward No. 2 also draws his guard out of the course of No. 5's dribble.
