D-2 " Ll QUITS AS CARDS’ MENTOR AFTER SERVING 18 YEARS| Has Been One of Most Tutors in Athletic Ranks Here—*“G” Club to Hold Annual Banqu BY H. RED RICE, after 18 years of F business duties have caused ossible for him to continue longer lon takes effect immediately an another man to handle its team next Winter. No man in the coaching profession has had a longer or more honorable career than Fred Rice. with whom he has come in contact, so far as the writer knows, he has never made even a single enel clally in consideration of his long career. That is all that one needs to know—the caliber of the man from the personal side. His professional ability has been | tested time after time against the | strongest quints in the country, with honor to himself. Rice’s teams have met year after year the best in basket ball, ‘and there ‘are few that can look | back over such a consistently good rec- ord for so long a period. Rice seemed always to have good teams, no matter what the quality of his material and when he had really good material it ‘became almost & question of how many points his men would score. In his 18 years of coaching Rice has had some great teams. During the two periods into which his coaching may be divided, before the war and after the war, Rice probably had one grnt outstanding team in each. Be- fore the war the combination on which | ‘Tracey, McDonnell, Lambert and Horan | were stars was the best, and since the war the team made up of Foley, Long. Carney, Harvey and O'Donuell takes first place. In fact, Rice thinks that the last-mentioned five was the best he_ever coached. Of all the brilliant players Rice has developed, he agreed with the writer that Ed Lynch was the best. Lynch not only had the physical ability and in- telligence to play basket ball, but he knew basket ball so well that it seemed to be almost his second nature. He layed the game instinctively and bril- jantly. Foley also was & great player, as were Tracey and McDonnell, “I have never taken any action that I regret more than I do severing my connection with basket ball,” said Rice this morning. “The sport has almost | been a part of me for many years, but in the last three or four the pressure of my business has become so great that I have devoted less and less time to it. During the past Winter 1 gave 5o little time to coaching that I really did the team an injustice and came to realize that it was a case of neglecting | my business seriously or neglecting | basket ball or giving up one or the other. I could not give up my business, 80 gave up basket ball. I shall never lose my interest in it and shall always follow it as closely as I can.” Rice entered Catholic University Law School in 1911 and that Winter played center and coached the team. The next year he discontinued playing and de- voted his entire time to coaching, He has made a_ remarkable record, was characterized by “Pop” Lambeth of Vir- ginia as “the greatest center I have ever seen,” and in his decision to re- tire from coaching, Catholic University | not only loses & good man but the | game itself will miss him as one who | [ has contributed greatly to its progress. | Georgetown tomorrow night holds its annual “G” Club dinner at the May- flower Hotel. The Blue and Gray is lanning big things for the event. as it is that a notable gathering of men from various sections of the |y East will attend. A feature of the eve- ning will be the award of athletic hon- ors to men who won their letters be- tween the years 1911 and 1915. Letters also are to be awarded to athletes who have attained the distinction of let- | Secti ters during the current vear. This is to be the first time that Tom Mills has appeared at a big function of George- | town alumni and the first opportunity the Blue and Gray folks have had to honor him as their new athletic di- Tector. Georgetown'’s base ball team is at Princeton_today for its second game | with the Tigers this year. In the pre- | vious contest, which was played here, | Georgetown was victor. The Blue and Gray ought to take the measure of the ‘Tigers again. ‘The other ball game in which a local school is to play today is that in which | Maryland meets Virginia Military In- | stitute at Lexington, Va.

SPORTS. - STRAIGHT OFF THE TEE EXT week is to be a busy period for golfers of both sexes around Washington. Two major tour- naments for the men and an important event for the women wil constitute the schedule. Loeally, the Chevy Chase Club invi- tation tournament will be the outstand- ing event, but some of the golfers who would play there if there were not a conflict with the dates for the Balti- more Country Club tourney, elected to go to the Monumental City. Among them are two or three of the leading players of the Capital. Monday and Tuesday a large field of ‘women players will gather at the Indian Spring Club to take part in one of the three big women's tournaments held near Washington each year—the 36- hole medal play event for The Evening Star Trophy—which is won by the player having the lowest net score far 36 holes, of which 18 are played each of the two days of the tourney. The Chevy Chase event is strictly an invitation affair this year, the club having abandoned the handicap rating on which it sough to keep the entry list down for several years. Amon| entrants will be a group of Canadians, some whom have attended many Chevy Chase events. It will Wednesday with a one-day qualifying round, to be followed by the four con- ventional match play rounds Thursday and Friday.

The Chevy Chase tourney winds up on Friday and the Balt! event closes on Sat Members of the Woodmont Country Club golf team have been notified of the annual inter-city tournament with Lakeside Country Olub of Richmond, which will be held at Lakeside on June 21 and 22. Norfolk usually enters a team in the annual event, but this year the Lynnhaven Club has dropped out. The rivairy will be none the less keen, however, for Lakeside and Woodmont hold two legs on the inter-city he Woodmont team 1o scores made by the team candidates. Roger Peacock’s score of 73, made yesterday on the first qualifying day of he Woodmont tournament, may stand first nine, but breezed back over the last nine in 35 strokes to lead his nearest competitor by two strokes. Next to him was Bernard Hallock of Honesdale, Pa., who turned in a 78. Hallock is a stu- | dent at Pace Institute. For a while it spemed as if Addison Loveless, an 13-year-old caddie at Ban- nockburn and Rock Creek Park, was to upset the apple cart in a little proces- sion arranged by himself and a brother caddle, For Loveless, stroking the ball beautifully, and aided by the warhoops of his caddie as he sank putt after putt, reached the turn in a well played 35 Oozing confidence and literally “raring” to go, the youngster started off well enough by knocking his tee shot at the tenth almost to the green. But he took three putts and then had to wait while three pairs drove off from the second tee. After that wait his game collapsed and he took 42 for the second nine to score a 77. W. A. Dennis of Congres- sional also scored a 77 to be the fourth man under 80, and Arnold McCaffrey, also of Cengressional, made a 78. Miller B. Stevinson, Page Hufty, Johis. C. Shorey and Albert R.
