G. U. Host Tomorrow to Two Yale Teams : School Nines to See Plenty of Action READING TOPLAY |SEEK MORE SPEED |Fos BASE BALL, TENNIS OPEN LIVELY WEEK Maryland Nine Will Figure in Four Games on Trip. Harvard Visitor. BY H. C. BYRD. WO Yale teams come here tomorrow for the only col- legiate = competition on I local fields and to open the biggest week of athletic programs local colleges have had this year. The Dark Blue base ball and tennis teams are scheduled for contests with Georgetown, the ball game on the Army War Col- lege diamond and the tennis matches on the Hilltop courts. Yale’s nine plays a second game with Georgetown Tuesday. Just how strong the Yale tennis team may be is not known, but unless the Navy nine has been overrated the ball club that is to face Georgetown is likely to be just as much as the latter wants to handle, notwithstanding the greater amount of outdoor experience the local school has had_this Spring bumped off the Navy lgplrenl out a lot of difficulty by 8 to 4, and Navy is reputed to have one of the strongest teams in its history. University of Maryland begins a four- game trip_tomorrow by meeting North Carolina_State at Raleigh. Before its return the Old Line team is to play on consecutive days, Tuesday, Wednes- day and Thursday, North Carolina Uni- versity, Duke and Virginia. Incidentally Maryland has five games in as_many days, as it comes back here Friday morning to play North Carolina that afternoon. ‘Besxdes the second game Yale is to play fayette is to appear here with Catholic University as its opponent. Wednesday will find Delaware playing base ball at Catholic University and the Tank Corps nine at Gallaudet. Maryland is at Duke and the Johns Hopkins tennis team at Georgetown. Harvard is to be a visitor Thursday and Friday for two ball games with Georgetown and Catholic Universities as its opponents. With the Crimson as well as the Dark Blue playing here in the same week, old grads of both should be able to get a fair line on their probable strength during the re- mainder of the year. Washington meets American U. tennis match. Saturday the University of Maryland has the field to itself with a lacrosse game ugainst Western Maryland Col- lege. The Western Maryland twelve is coached by a former Maryland player, T. B. Marden, and nothing ever pleases a coach so much as to take & team back to beat his alma mater. Incidentally, Maryland is not sitting 50 easily in looking forward to that con- test, as its thought is that if it can get by with a victory it should consider that about as much as it ought to arvnont in a Latholic University certainly is mak- ing good some of its optimistic expecta- tions for a much better ball team than usual. The Brooklanders have been playing so much better than they did last season that there is hardly any comparison between their present nine and the one that represented them in 1929. They are much stronger in pitch- | ing. have better batting, and a far superior fielding organization. About a week ago, Coach Shipley of the Maryland ball team was bemoan- ing the bad arm one of his pitchers, Batson, had developed, but if Batson's work yesterday in the opening game with Cornell is any criterion of what e~re arms can do, then Shipley would @o well to hope very fervently that all his hurlers carry bad wings throughout the year. Batson set Cornell down with a shutout, allowed only two hits, and not a Cornell man got as far as third base. For a pitcher who a week ago was not going to be much this vear, that is doing pretty well. Inci- dentally, if Cornell had started Stevens on the slab, the game probably would have been a brilllant affair, as after that gentleman did take up the pitching burden the Marylanders were just about helpless. Maryland unquestionably has the best ball team that has worn its colors in five years, perhaps longer. Ifs fleld- ing exhibition against Cornell at times came near being brilllant, and the per- formance of the team as a whole was everything that followers of the Old Line school should desire. Chalmers and Berger at short and second are the best pair have play- ed those positions since Tody Riggs and Johnny Eiseman held them down eight or nine years ago. And with Radice at first and Gaylor at third, Maryland has an inflield that will meet few superiors in college ball. The team seemed weak in the latter part of the game yesterday, »sim:mly against curve ball pitching. It will have to improve somewhat in that, but other- wise seems to be an exceptionally good college nine. The way the situation seems to size up just now in regard to local college nines, three here are likely to stand the acid test in competition throughout the whole season, Georgetown, Catholic University and Maryland. ~The Blue and Gray has proved itself far more effectively, in fact, than the other two. It has won seven out of eight games, some of them from very good college nines, and most of them by decisive margins. It will be interesting, indeed, to watch these schools throughout the year in their efforts against teams from - | this other sections. Followers of the dia Wivin mond should have teams here well able to do better than hold their own against the strongest competition they are to face from other colleges, which ought to be very satisfactory in view of the failure of either of the three to do any- thing like as well last year. Two schools Maryland is to meet in frack and lacrosse were well represented in the stands at College Park yesterday. Coach Earl Thomsen of the Navy several of his cinderpathers were pres- ent and so was Coach Dinty Moore of St. John’s with his whole lacrosse team. o A. A. U. TO CONSIDER COURT ELIGIBILITY Bv the Associated Press. NEW YORK, A‘grfl 5—The basket ball committee of the Amateur Athletic Union will be called upon soon to con- sider a set of eligibility rules intended to prevent “loading up” teams for its national tournament, it was announced today in the A. A. U. publication, The Amateur Athlete. There is nothing in the existing rules to keep teams from assembling out- standing players for the A. A. U. event; J. Lyman Bingham, basket ball com- mittee chairman, pointed out in a re- on the 1930 tournament, and this as often been done. “Such procedure is discouraging to the colleges and well organized teams ‘who enter the championships with play- ers who have been with the team during a regular schedule of games,” Mr. Bing- ham said. It was also indicated that the annual tourney, staged at Kansas City for the last ten years, may be held elsewhere with Denver seeking the event for 1931 and Los Angeles for 1032.

RICE FIELD, Houston, Tex., April 5.— The slim legs of Claude Bracey flashed today over the hot cinders of this fleld just ahead of Cy Leland in the 100-yard dash, the Dixie Express half falling | across the tape two feet head of Texas Christian University's star. Bracey of Rice Institute redeemed himself somewhat by the victory, which was in the relatively slow time of 0:9.8, but a few minutes later Leland sailed by him in the 220-rard dash with the tape but a few yards away and finished ahead by inches. ‘The time was 0:21.1, and, like that for the 100-yard event, was not exception- ally fast. The two matches were the features of the Rice-T. C. U. dual track meet, which Rice won, 77 to 40. Bracey was greeted with a great burst of cheering as he came tearing ahead in the first race. Twice this season Leland had beaten him at the distance. They were off without a false try, and Bracey seemed to pull away from the start. Leland was just at his heels, though, all the way and seemed to be g"arlinlnl perhaps a trifle as they hit the string. 5 ‘When they got set for the 220 each was highly nervous, and it took three or four minutes to get them off. Finally they came tearing down the lanes, see- sawing up and down, Leland ahead one half second, Bracey the next. They were fighting side by side almost to the end, and it looked as though Leland won because of superior stamina. I was Bracey's second defeat at 220 yards this season by Leland.

By the Associated Press, HICAGO, April 5.—The National Association of Basket Ball Ooaches todsy drew yp & set of seven proposals to halt stalling and to speed up the game. The proposals will be submitted to the national joint rules committee next Spring by Coach Walter Meanwell of Wisconsin. The association’s committee, after a long discussion on excessive stalling, proposed that in case one team holds the ball in the back court with- out keeping it in motion that a jump ball shall be called if a member of. the defensive team comes within & yard of the man holding the ball in play after a lapse of only 5 seconds. ‘The other llll!.!‘m'w were: That time out shall not terminate between the calling of a foul and the shooting of a free throw until the ball actually leaves the hands of the free thrower. ‘The 10-second time limit shall con- tinue to prevail after the free thrower has been given the ball on the free- throw line. That stalling shall be designated as the failure of a team that is behind in the score to ghy aggressive basket ball and that such action in refusing to at- tempt to take the ball away from the offense shall be known as unsportsman- like play or coaching. Many other proposals, such as short- ;:In( the playing floor, were voted wn. HYATTSVILLE HIGH'S NINE SHOWS POWER HYATTSVILLE, Md., April 5.—Hyatts- ville High School's base ball team, victorious in its two starts, faces three games next week. = Leonard Hall will be engaged Tues- day at Leonardtown. Charlotte Hall - | will come here Wednesday and Wood- ward Friday. Hyattsville is hopeful of winning all three games, In taking the measure of Emerson Institute and Alexandria High Hyatts- ville has shown all-around strength. The Blue and Gold did well in both games offensively and showed creditably in other departments. Work of its pitchers was especially heartening to Coach Leland G. Worthington. John Haney showed capably against Emer- son, while Ferdinand French let Alex- andria down with just five hits. Babe Anderson is expected to make his debut on the mound for Hyattsville ‘Tuesday, with Haney and French start- ing the other games. While Hyattsville's season is now well under way, one of the outfield posi- tions on the team remains to be settled. Brice Duckett and DeVoe Meade, last season's regulars, have clinched posi- tions in far reaches. Ernest Michaelson, Babe Anderson and McMahon are bat- tling for the other assignment. A big reason for the success of the Hyattsville nine has been the bang-up work of Teddy Glasgow, diminutive catcher. Considerable difficulty was ex- pected to be encountered in finding a VU capable receiver, but Glasgow appears to have the goods. Incidentally, Glasgow is the ranking juvenile bowler in the Washington metropolitan area. A YALE NINE DEFEATED, 6 TO 3, BY MARINES QUANTICO, Va, April 5.—Yale's base ball warriors went down to defeat at the hands of the Quantico Marines here this afternoon by a score of 6 to 3. Tolan and Gorman walked to start the attack for the Devil Dogs in the first inning and a single by Lock scored both runners. Gatewood sacrificed Lock to second and on Ware's grounder Booth, Eli shortstop, threw over first and both runners were scored by Sulli- vah's double to left field. Gatewood's on balls, Ware's triple and Sullivan’s single accounted for the other two tallies in the fifth. Lefty Harold Smith twirled a master- ful game for the Marines, keeping all the Yale hits well scattered. Sullivan starred at bat with a single, double and triple in four trips to the platter.
