The Navy basket ball season closes this week, the final game, on Satur- day afternoon, being against North Carolina. The campaign on the court has not been very successful for the Navy, but in recent games there were indica- | tions of improvement. Victories over | Georgetown and North Carolina would | go far toward redeeming the season. Coach Johnny Wilson may start his reserves, as he tm&untly does in b ames. However, the team which ted to do the bulk of the work Reinhardt forwards, Capt. cenudl;. and Campbell and Lowrence, ards. The boxing match will be the only event for Saturday evening, tho there will be the usual big the afternoon. Interest in the match is intense, and though 6,000 can be seated in the gymnasium, there is little doubt that many who wish to see the contest cannot be accommodated. Georgetown's great showing against | the Army and its victory over Wash- ingten and Lee has convinced those connected with the academy boxing that it is a dangerous opponent. The probable Navy Line-up will be: 115 pounds—Dempsey or Cooke. | 125 pounds—Fitzgerald. 135 pounds—Wallace. 145 pounds—Hall. 160 pounds—Moret (captain). 175 pounds—Swan. Unlimited weight—Chapple. It has been noted that the Navy boxers, as & rule, lack the aggressive- ness of former years, and everything possible will be done by Coach Spike | Webb to get more drive into his fighters. . ST. MARY’S CELTICS PLAY DEL RAY A. C. ALEXANDRIA, Va., PFebruary 18.— St. Mary's Celtics will strive to cop their fourth straight victory tonight when they battle the Del Ray A.

It was de- cided, however, to play the game at| It must have been one of those days that found Peters at his best, or beyond | his best, with Tilden in the slump that | comes to the veteran. And slumps come | more and more often to the veteran as | the years slip by. An occasion of this sort is the thing that baffles Davis Cup commit- tees. The American Davis Cup com- mittec knows that to have any | chance for victory Tilden must play | in the singles and be good enough to | win at least one match. If Tilden | isn't good enough to do this, no other | American entry is. Tilden at his | best still is the best of the American stars. He still is national tennis champion. In the last two years Tilden has faced several occasions where his game sud- denly broke in two. As one reaches the | end of the long competitive road a col- | lapse of this sort now and then is to be expected. It can't be helped. And it is| difficult to forecast. The only way to meet and beat it is through hnxar[ periods of rest. The system after 35 doesn’t rebound any too quickly. Nerve | reserves are more quickly exhausted,! and they need longer spells in which to | recuperate, | Tilden will play better tennis if he| doosn't play quite'as much tennis, which is something he hates to belicve, It is | something each one hates to beleve, | but that doesn't keep it from being true. | Tilden at his best still is a hard man to | beat. But he has a_harder time reach- | ing his best—even the best of 1930. The Same to All IOLF isn't the strenuous game that tennis is, tennis demanding stamina than base ball. But even golf has to keep one eye fixed on the clock or the calendar. Walter Hagen is about Tilden's age, and has been around about as long. P petition on the Pacific Coast, with more than $60,000 to shoot at, Hagen collected only $80 as his share. He broke into the prize list only once, and he was 10 longer a factor in the P. G. pionship that he dominated to 1929, A. cham- from "“l his being at his best get longer and longer as the years slip by. 1 There is one thing about Hagen-—no matter how badly hc may look for a week or for a month, he is one of | back with greater confidence and witn more stuff than any one you can think of. As Bobby Jones will be on hand for the Eritish cpen in June, the battle be- tween this pair will be doubly interest- ing, as they have been the two big British winners of the last four or five years. 'HIS makes the case of George Her- man Ruth doubly interesting. Ruth any outward n,n of slipping. With Ruth from now on it will be largely a matter of legs—legs and the physical condition needed to carry a big body through a long season that de- mands competition every day. If Ruth can escape sickness or in- jury and takes his turn for 145 or 150 games in a schedule, he should still be good for 50 or more home runs and a batting average above 350. He will still be a good outfielder, but he is also approaching the last xum that leads to the end of the road. ‘There happens to be a road's end waiting for them all—and few road ends have waited for three greater athletic marches than Ruth, Tilden and Hagen. Jack Dempsey, at about the same age, more | still is staring somewhat wistfully at the old trail. still wondering whether to ake gate is h match this four when it comes to pub- lic ance and to crowd lure. And it ml,ht also be remembered that each one of the four has been a master show- | man—which also counts. DISTRICT GOLFERS OLAND R.

One is a pull to the right that causes the golfer to brace his right leg in or- | der to maintain his balance. As the | backswing continues the club is | swung upward and back over the shoulders. This causes one to_ be pulled slightly to the rear. The failure to understand this is the rea- | son for so much false conception of | the pivot. ‘The pivot is nothing to worry over, It is a misnomer, in the first El-ce. The point here is merely to eep one's balance. When that is done, the pivot takes care of itself. So when you brace the right leg starting back, also lock the right LOCK THE RIGHT HIP AS YOU TAKE CLUB BACLK ENTIRELY WiTH LEFT ARM = "LOCKING' |7 MEANS NoT LETTING IT TORN TO REAR RN l-lis‘ L3 hip. By locking it is meant hold- ing the right hip joint in position will not tilt or swing back. Unless you do this the right hip will swing back and you actuaily will pivot and lose your balance. What really Ingpem in the correct backswing is that your left hand, swinging the club back and up, pulls your left side around when you brace the right leg and lock ‘the right hip. We'll look further into | this in the next article. Unless you understand the pivot you cannot hope to shoot golf. Sol Metzger has a new illustrated leaflet which he will send to any one wishing it. Address Sol Metager, in care of this paper, and inclose a stamped, addressed envelope. (Copyright, 1930.) WRESTLES AT STRAND.
