D3 —_— Maryland’s Lacrosse Battle With Hopkins Holds College Spotlight Tomorrow TERPS WOULD SPOIL FOE'S CLEAN SLATE Baltimoreans Have Edge in Comparing Work of Both Against St. John’s. BY H. C. BYRD. ARYLAND'S lacrosse game with Johns Hopkins just 4 ¥V 1 about holds the center of the athletic stage in this section tomorrow. The Old Line twelve goes to Baltimore to meet an undefeated team, a Hopkins team that has whipped 8t. John’s, which, three weeks ago, decisive- ly defeated Maryland, so it is ap- Em-ent that Maryland does not ave an easy task confronting it. Lacrosse is the only sport in which Hopkins has an advantage over Mary- land in games won and lost. The Bal- timoreans were almost supreme in the lacrosse world before Maryland ever be- ga0 Lo play the game. but the latter as been coming rapidly and in the last few years now is giving the best twelves in the country ail they want in the way of opposition. Because of Hopkins' brilliant record fn lacrosse, Maryland always has felt that a victory in the annual game was almost as much to be desired as victory in foot ball. Lacrosse has been the one sport in which Hopkins Alumni for years had the laugh on Maryland duates, and because of that Mary- jand graduates have looked with un- usual eagerenss to lacrosse games with Hopkins just for the opportunity the game might give them to laugh back. And the Maryaind crowd certainly does like to laugh last. Has Brilliant Record. Hopkins’ twelve has a brililant rec- ord year. The Baltimoreans have won all their games, defeating Prince- ton and Yale among others. The best work done was in whipping St. John's, which was thought to have the best team in the United States. Maryland also has a good record for the year, with the exception of the poor showing it made against St. John’s. Its main vic- tories have been over Army and Penn- sylvania, and its best work was done in those two contests. ‘Maryland really made a better show- g against Army and more decisively defeated that twelve than did Hopkins. The Old Liners won by 8 to 2, while Hopkins was victor, 11 to 5. But it was in the St. John's game that Mary- land suffered by comparison with Hop- kins. St. John’s in the first half made Maryland pretty much of & high school outfit and throughout the whole contest ‘was superior. Hopkins beat St. John’s and caused its followers to figure that |ty pe & clear margin in its favor should be considered to exist in the pre-game dope for the Maryland game tomorrow. However, Hopkins-Maryland games have been productive of some peculiar situations and unexpected results. Cer- tain it is that Maryland will play X TO CONTINUE TWIN BILLS IN SCHOOL BASKET BALL It has been decided after all to con- tinue play in the public high school basket ball champlonship series on the double-header basis. After the close of the past season it was announced that next season single games would be played. However, it has been decided by the principals to go back to the old plan in view of the fact that Tech students would be handicapped in their gym work as the result of the installation of extra seats during the extended time needed for the playing of a single-game schedule. crosse tomorrow with a determination that it has had in no other game. Last year Maryland won from Hopkins when the pre-game comparisons seemed to favor the latter. The game begins at 3 o'clock daylight saving time, which means 2 o'clock ‘Washington time.

Maryland's tennis team plays two matches tomorrow. The Old Liners will split their varsity and fill up each team from reserves. One team will go to Charlottesville to fulfill a postponed en- gagement with Virginia and the other to Hopkins to take part in a regularly scheduled match. The two matches come about as the result of an unauthorized cancellation by Maryland of a match scheduled with Virginia last Monday. Probably no 100-yard dash race that has been run in years has attracted as much attention as the one scheduled tomorrow at Chicago between Tolan of Michigan and Simpson of Ohio State. The Michigan runner recently was given the world record of 9.5 seconds for the hundred despite the fact that Simpson has run the distance in'9.4. Simpson, however, used starting blocks and Tolan did not. Simpson believes he can beat Tolan without the blocks and furthermore believes he can run the century in 9.4 without the blocks. The race will be a test for Tolan of whether of not he can live up to his world championship record and for Simpson a matter of vindicating his own past performances. It would not be_surprising to see & new world record hung up in the event. Certainly there is sufficlent incentive for both events, they right down the line. of its northern trip yesterday. sity of Delaware at Newark by 5 to 2. final period. i Catholie. Delaware. liver,2b.

Simpson and Tolan are two, Frank Wyckoff of Southern California another, and Bracey of Rice Institute Incidentally, there seems belief that Wyckoff is faster than elther Simpson or Tolan. If the result of any intercollegiate event ever was a certainty before that event was held, then the Navy-Mary- land track meet tomorrow holds that distinction.

HICAGO, May 23 (#).— The Simpsons, Tolans. Rockaways and Sentmans todays lined up for preliminaries in the thir- tieth renewal of the Western Confer- AiL) | ence track and field championships—a n | battle which promised to be the closest in recent years. Plenty of drama was anticipated in the duel between George Simpson of Ohio State and Eddie Tolan of Michi- gan in the classic 100-yard dash, & battle in the hurdles involving Dick Rockaway of Ohio State, Lee Sentman of Tllinois and Zeise of Wisconsin, and a four: truggle for the team cham- - -— e e pionship, with Iilinois the defending title holder; Michigan, Ohio State and Wisconsin figured as the real con- tenders. The action of the International Amateur Athletic Federation in recog- nizing Tolan's 0:9.5 as a world record while rejecting Simpson’s 0:9.4 because of the use-of wooden starting blocks has made the race doubly important. Simpson has renounced the use of starting blocks and is out to prove he is the “world’s fastest human.” blocks or no blocks. Tolan has his 100-yard title to retain and Coach Steve Farrell will have him at his best. Coaches today were wondering in what race Coach Eddie O'Connor of | Purdue would use Orval Martin, the’ “Wabash Cannon Ball.” The Purdue| fiyer was rated as capable of winning the half-mile, the mile or the two-mile and had a reason for trying each one. He holds the indoor half-mile record and twice has won the outdoor mile, but has set no outdoor marks. With proper competition he might crack the 1:53.2 half-mile record set by Scott of Mississippl A. and M. in 1926 or the 4:158 mile mark established by Eddie Fall of Oberlin in 1917, Michigan's all-around strength ap- peared to give the Wolverines slight | edge, but Ilinols, Wisconsin and Ohio | State, all possessing stars and team balance, were much in the race. New records appeared almost certain in several events. Tommy Warne of Northwestern has several times exceeded 13 feet 715 inches in the pole vault, the height at which he tied with Verne McDermott of Illinois last y In the shotput Sammy Behr of Wisconsin, rec- ord holder at 48 feet 3 inches, was back in better form than ever.
