SPORTSy [IAI]ETS l[lSE MUST ! OF 1929 REGULARS Thirteen of Letter Men of Great Eleven of Last Fall to Graduate. BY H. C. BYRD. SUALLY these Spring days find_ college base ball coaches more concerned with base ball than with anything else, but not so with Bill Raftery, diamond coach at Vir- ginia Military Institute. Bill has a great ball club, one that has made thm% miserable for its op- onents, but right now his oughts are turning more to next Fall than to the brilliant record his ball handlers are making. For be it known that V. M. I. loses 13 letter men from its 1929 eleven, and of the 11 regulars only 1, possibly 2, are to return. “Say, you've got a great ball team this Spring, haven't you, Bill” was the eeting extended to Raftery this morn- when he and his squad appeared at University of Maryland for a game this afternoon. “Pretty good,” replied Bill, “but when xt Fall rolls around I think I'll ask our opponents to spot us a couple of touchdowns before we start.” "What are you worrying about foot ball for at this time,” was the rejoinder, 'h':echlly when you've got one of the ines in the South?” “That's all right about the ball team; thit's made. But I've t_plenty to think about for next Fall. We lost 13 letter men from our last year's team and are likely to have back only one regular of the eleven. With the kind of schedule we play, if that isn't enough to make me think, I don't know what is. We play in Florida one minute and Kentucky the next, and our reserve ma- terial of last Fall was no so hot, either. Looks like wé shall have plenty of trou- ble, and that's not a bear story, either. ‘This, added to the fact that some of the stronger than they have been in years, goes not. eokrr things with a roseate ue.” .

That is saying somethin too. For the “C” Club games alwa have been of bang-up variety. Newby pointed out that the cream of the District, Maryland and Vir- ginia schools have entered. Woodberry Forrest and Gilman Country School of Baltimore have advised the meet authorities that they will be represented by squads of a couple of dozen athletes each. ‘Their entries had been only tentative.

FULLER, Jr. OOKS like they're trying to kill the game.” That's the way a friend of this reporter today sized up the work of the players in the public & high school base ball championship | Ml series now in progress. “There’s not much interest in base ball in the high school, anyway,” said " this observer, “and the punk brand of ball the boys are putting up sure is not helping things any.” “Take that game yesterday. Eastern, 21; Central, 5. What a farce. Take all the other games in the series this season for that matter, except maybe the Tech- Western game, which was pretty fair. From the scores it looks like they were pllylnl foot ball or holding track Yelurdnyl Eactern-Central affair brought the total number of runs scored in the five series games to date to 126, an average of slightly more than 25 a contest. As the result of winning Eastern gained a tie for first place in the flag race with Rusiness at two wins and no losses each. The defeat, Central's sec- ond in as many starts, put it out of the title running. Eastern, Business and ‘Western alone remain in the parade and Western's chances are slim, the Red having lost one e and being plainly weaker than early in the series.
