S STANFORD SEEKS TS FOURTH TITLE Swo Coast Institutions Hog Show as Intercollegiate Games Get Under Way. BY ALAN GOULD, Assoclated Press Sports Writer. AMBRIDGE, Mass,, May 30. —The Eastern track and field front, long suffering, but still hospitable, offered its classic sod and cinders today for the preliminary stages of what apparently is a struggle between Southern California and Stanford for the fifty-fourth intercollegi- ate A. A. A. A. championship. With squads of only a score or so of athletes each, these two Pacific Coast universities have come some 3,000 miles to settle the much-mooted issue of col- lege track and field supremacy for 1930. They are expected to scatter a number of meet Tecords, if not also a few world marks, all over the Harvard premises. Southern California, with a squad better balanced than any of the 34 entered, was a marked favorite in the advance speculation to beat the three- times championship Stanford outfit. The red-shirted Cardinals from Palo Alto, however, conceded their archrivals nothing, least of all their coach, Robert L. (Dink) Templeton. Bank on Weight Men. “We have better than an even chance to win and make it four straight,” said Templeton. _“Southern Cal has the greatest dual meet team I have ever seen, but this is another story.

The East figures to cut heavily into Southern Cal's more scattered strength.” Dean Cromwell, veurm“hend ;?c}: of the Trojans, was equally confiden his charges would wm.e‘%y a substantial margin.” _Southern California’s only previous victories were scored in 1925 and 1926. The 100-yard dash, bringing together three of the fastest college sprinters in the country, was the spotlight of today’s preliminary program. Threaten Dash Record. Although the Harvard track has been subjected to_considerable rain, the meet record of 9.7 seconds ngel.red in dan- from the combined attack of Frank off of Southern California, who has done 9.4 this Spring; Eddie Tolan of Michigan, the new world’s record helder at 9.5, and Blond, rangy Hector Dyer of Stanford, who broke even with Wykoff in two 'sensational 100-yard tduels on the coast. The semi-finals were included in the first day's schedule to save the sprint talen from overwork to- MOITOW.

The law sets June 1 as the opening date, but as May 30 is a holiday, District officlals have for years permitted the anglers to spend their day off whipping the waters for their favorite fish, either the small-mouth bass to be found in the upper Potomac around Chain Bridge or in the Little River, or the big-mouth bass to be found in the Tidal Basin and in the Georgetown and Washington Channels and in the Eastern Branch. Four years ago, acting with the United States Bureau of Fisheries, the writer 5,000 adult bass in thg Tidal It cost $1,600 to place fish racks at both the gates to prevent their escape. Owing to the large supply of food in the basin for these fish only a small per- centage of them have been caught. On May 30 last year an early morning angler saw at least 300 bass, but was successful In landing only one. Some of the planted fish may have escaped when the tides were exceptionally h and flowing over the racks, but a great many of them are still in those waters and have contributed their share in spawn to the breeding of many others. Anglers are warned not to confuse the opening of the bass season in Dis- trict waters with the laws of Maryland and Virginia. These two States do not permit the taking of bass before July 1. HAT every angler wants to know is where the fish are biting. Re- o1ts this week state that the strong o:thest winds have played havoc with fishing at Chesapeake Beach, Herring Bay and other nearby places along the western side of the bay. Wednesday night a lone angler sat on the pier at Chesapeake Beach all night and did not get @ strike.

C. Webster, trolling off Doint, Patiehce, landed eight dl;ocmh, largest weighing pounds. G. R. Beck, at-Point Lookout, reports that during the last week several catches of hardheads, yellow fins and speckled trout were made down his ‘way. One boat also landed three tay- lors.

Some few an- glers are trolling and one man reports a catch of eight.big rock in the waters around Sharps Island. Capt. Ball said his largest catch was made at night. Off No Point and Point Lookout in the bay, Capt. Preston of Cambridge, Md., and Capt. Westly Summers report large catches of blues, trout, rock, hardheads and spots in their nets. This is conclusive proof that the fish are in the bay and waiting until the water is a little warmer before commencing to strike. Crabbérs may expect a good season as the men report that crabs are destroying their nets, which they will kt'emave at the end of the present wee! INEY POINT reports the first catch of rockfish this season on hook and line. A party of six local anglers headed by George Roberts trolling off this place landed two big rockfish re- ported to weigh in the neighborhood of 20 pounds each. Rockfish are also be- gg"gluzht off Ragged Point and in 's Bay. Capt. George Arnold when he landed at the ‘wharf{ at Leonardtown reported that he saw large schools of rockfish in the mouth of Britton's Bay and in the Potomac River. Tom Stein at Rock Point, Md., sends in the report that hardheads are being caught in both the Wicomico and Potomac Rivers. He said last week end Joe Butler landed 12 hardheads and 20 perch. Stein says with Thomas Stein as his fishing companion he landed 17 hardheads and a few perch. The hard- heads weighed between 3 and 4 pounds each. ‘When the wind changes to the south anglers may look forward to excellent fishing.

In the indoor I C. 4 A meet in 1929 he placed in four events and in the meet last March in three, and that in as classy a meet for competition as is held anywhere. Penn is counting on this happy- go-lucky kid for a lot of points in the intercollegiates tomorrow. He scored 15 points in five events in the dual meet with Yale on May 3. There seems to be no limit to his endur- ance in an all-around competition, except in the mile run, which he hates like polson—almost as bad as studying!

" i Seel a proper handicap for the members of thepeluocinlon, the golf committee of the seniors’ organization has requested the members to put all their score cards in the handicap box. “Interest in the contests,” Gen, Shanks says, “is largely dependent upon ac- curacy in handicapping—and we can- unless we know the scores you e. Nobody will have his handicap increased unless the scores he turns in justifies such change.” With golf events on tap at all the local clubs today, Fred Byrne, chairman of the Bannockburn golf committee, with his customary zest for. getting away from the usuel, AITAN blindfold driving competition, was scheduled for this afternoon and was expected to provide considerable amusement for those who were to watch the efforts of the entrants, A flag tourney was the ar tourney proaching and putting contest was to follow the blindfold driving event. More than 200 golfers have entered their names for the Inter-Departmental League tourney, which starts next Mon- day over the course of the Indian Spring Golf Club and will run through Tuesday. The fleld has been split into two sections, and two members of the four-man teams are to play each day. All the entrants will play 36 holes on the day they are scheduled to start. M. A. Shipley of the State Department will defend the individual title he won last year.

Hufty and Bones were out in 35 and back in a scintillat- ing 30, scoring deuces on the eleventh and thirteenth holes and finishing with a trio of threes. Their score included buzzard sixes on the lengthy first and tenth holes. Another of the series of miniature golf courses that are springing up all over the city was opened last night at 2436 Georgia avenue. It is known as the “Pee Wee” course. A feature of the new layout is the green sand putting surfaces, which afe said to be the near- est thing to good grass putting greens yet developed. The green are of sea sand and remain hard throughout a rainstorm, Entries for the Middle Atlantic Golf Association championship will _close Monday afternoon with W. R.

BY H. C. BYRD. with five contests tomor- row, four of them at An- napolis and one at Philadelphia. From a Navy point of view, by far the most important of these is the lacrosse game with Maryland, but in addition to that the track and field squad meets Notre Dame, the nine plays Ohio State, the tennis team faces Pennsylvania and the fourth class crew com- petes in the Henley regatta at Philadelphia. Of the four events at Annapolis the track meet and the base ball games be- at , the tennis match at 2:30 and the lacrosse game at 3:30, Navy's ball team and track squads have "been making brilllant records, while Navy has not met defeat in la- crosse since it lost the opening game to the Oxford-Cambridge twelve. The Sailors believe they have at least an even chance to capture both the ball game and the track meet, but would rather win at lacrosse than'in either of the other sports, because a national HE Naval Academy winds up its athletics for the year| championship is at stake. EOPLE in Maryland are much more interested in the stick battle than in -either of the other two major com- petitions. Not only is this true because of interest in Naval Academy teams and the desire to watch what promises to be a brilliant contest, but also be- cause it is the State university of Mary- land which is in the role of the Navy's opponent. 1t is likely that people will €0 to Annapolis tomorrow from one end of Maryland to the other. Navy has a great lacrosse team, from what knowledge may be gained from orlnlons of those that have watched it play. Last week it defeatéed Western Maryland by eight goals, and a repre- sentative of the former said yesterday that “Navy could have whipped us by 20 goals as easily as it did by eight.” The one game Navy has lost was to the all-English team that glnyed under the colors of Oxford-Cambridge, and that was by 5 to 4. It has won all its con- tests since that without difficulty; and most of them by wide margins, It has 4 tall, rangy and fast team, a team that should considerably outweigh Maryland. On the other hand, Maryland also has behind it an exceptionally good record. fThe Old Liners have lost one game, that to St. John's, and appar- ently did not ghy as good lacrosse then as they should, because they have since swamped a 12 that whipped St. John's. Maryland last week etrmbnbly reached its zenith, as it played lacrosse against Hopkins that would have beaten any other 12 in the United States. If Mary- land through grim determination can maintain the standard it set against Hopkins, it will have at least an even chance against the Navy. BOUT the oniy pre-game advan- take that seems to favor either 12 is the fact that the game will be played on the Navy fleld. That field has a considerable slope from one side to the other, and the Navy players have a knack of playing the upper and higher side of that fleld much better than any visiting team _could possibly have. Shooting for goals on that slant also is flnlodz the same as on a perfectly level eld. Dr. Van Orman, coach of Johns Hop- kins University's lacrosse team, sald this morning that the Navy field offers at least a two-goal advantage to Navy. That may or may not be, but there is no doubt that it offers some advantage, an advantage Maryland will have to overcome if it is to win. Navy people are of the opinion that Maryland has a slight in playing strength, but that other factors favoring Navy even that up, so that the result, as far as any pre-game consideration is con- bmlk , should be just about an even reak. EORGETOWN winds up its inter- collegiate base ball schedule this afternoon at Yale. The Blue and Gray is scheduled for an exhibition game at Stamford, Conn., tomorrow against the club representing that town, but this is not to be counted as a part of the reg- ular season. Yesterday Georgetown got a tough|F. H break in its game with New York Uni- versity. After being rained out three ys consecutively, the Blue and Gray went into the last inning with a three- | 5 run lead only to have N. Y, U. stage a four-run rally and win. The score stood 10 to 7 in favor of the Blue and Gray until that last period, when the 'OUR Georgetown men are competing today in the trials of the Intercol- legiates at Harvard. They are Leo Lex- ton, in the field events; Kelly, in the half mile; Burke, in the 440, and Briggs in the dashes. The men are at the meet under the direction of John O'Rellly, veteran track coach. JACK MALEVICH last night was| awarded the trophy for: being the pest athlete at Catholic University. The occaslon was the annual Spring smoker for members of athletic teams, and Malevich was acclaimed as are few men. - The award not only covered ability in athletics, but also the most outstanding qualities as & man and scholarship. Malevich comes from Eveleth, Minn, EONARD WALSH, who Ilast Fall was assistant foot ball coach at George Washington, has been named to hold the same job next year and to coach basket ball as well. Walsh is a former Minnesota end. SID KOLKER T0 CAPTAIN TECH HIGH’S GRID TEAM 8id Kolker, husky lineman, has been named captain of the 1931 Tech High foot ball team. Coach Hap Hardell describes the Mc- Kinley gridiron outlook as poor despite that he will have a better nucleus than last season. Kolker and Goldman are regular linemen to return while Nelson and Reichman will be regular backs at hand again. Yznaga, reserve back, who had some experience last Fall, will be on the job. Whether the new Tech stadium will be ready for foot ball next Fall is un- certain. Unless it is the Gray will again be up against it for facilities. POWER BOATMEN ELECT. E. F.

By the Associated Press. HICAGO, May 30.—Future collegiate track and field stars of the country today moved into Stagg Field for preliminaries of the University of Chicago’s twenty-sixth annual championship meet. Although opposition to such meets has been expressed, the entry list contained the names of 602 athletes from 150 schools, with 23 States represented. On the same track on which George Simpson of Ohio State, Eddie Tolan of Michigan, Dale Letts of Chicago, Ray Kiser of Washington, and Purdue’s Or- val Martin, gained fame, another group of record seekers will compete in finals tomorrow. Ivan Fuqua of Brazil, Ind,, holder of the meet record of 0:49.4 for 440 yards, was back to try for an- other record, and had a group of 50-sec- ond boys as compefition. The latter included Lewis Smith of Greeley, Colo,.; Bill Proctor of Georgia Military High, and Charles Howard of Boys’ High, At- lanta, Ga. Leonard Krovlik of Smithville, Tex., brought a mark of 0:24.3 for the 220-yard low hurdles, Slats Hardin of Green- wood, Miss;, had one of 0:24.8 for the event and Ablowitch of Greenville, Tex., was credited with 24 seconds even dur- ing the season. Although barred from formal competi- tlon when the academy section of the meet was dropped, Fuentes of Texas Military Academy, San Antonio, came to Chicago to run a special race in an at- tempt to better Ted Meredith's time of 1:55 for the half mile.

ESTERN HIGH SCHOOL'S crack girls' rifle team has just won its third straight public high school cham- plonship by defeating the Central las- sles, 895 to 876, out of a possible 1,000. The 895 total, it is said, is the highest ever made in girls’ public high cham- plonship competition here. Previously this season Western and Central, the only schools represented by teams, had defeated each other once. Rifle is the only sport in which girls have inter- high competition here, Superiority at the offhand positior. was the feature of Western's perform- ance this season, as it usually has been. Members of the team, who soon wil be awarded major letters, are: Eunice Johnson, captain; Gillette Sullivan, manage! anice Holland, Vir- ginia Sellars, Margaret Olney, Helene McLachlen and Helen Wilson. All these girls except Miss Sellars and Miss Wil- son will be lost by graduation this Spring, but, in addition to these two, there will be at hand next season a group of others who gained experience in National Rifle Association bi-weekly matches during the campaign just , and the belief is expressed that Western will be able to turn out an- other winning combination. ‘One-Round’ Hogan, old Ringman, Dies Suddenly LOS ANGELES, May 30 (®)— “One-Round” Hogan, who 20 years ago battled his way to title compe- tition in the lightweight class, had taken his final count today.

BY BENNY LEONARD, Retired Undefeated Lightweight Champlon, CHMELING'S TRAINING CAMP, ENDICOTT, N. Y, May 30.—Max Schmeling's trainer, Max Machon, I fear, does not agree with me that the German heavyweight needs more work. The man who is to battle Jack Sharkey for the heavyweight champlonship of the world in the Yankee Stadium on June 12 has been applying the brakes in his workout, but at that he is keep- ing his sparring partners busy. To me it looks as if Machon is think- ing more of conserving the sparring partners until others can be secured than he is of letting his man take the bit in his teeth and get as much box- ing as he can under his belt in the remaining time left for training. As 1 have pointed out in previous articles, the German is studying rather than fighting, although he does let himzel go a little with Da Mave. Neron is a big, husky fellow and I think Schmeling could cut loose with him, t0o0, without doing either any harm. I have spent much time with Schmel- in the last few days. We have alked of his plan of battle, of his training and of his golf. Max explain- ed that he does not exert himself much in the golf games. He pointed out that of late it has not been hot here and the sun has had little chance to sap his energy. ‘Was Fit on Arrival. “I trained considerably in Germany before I started for this country,” Max explained, “so that when I arrived here 1 was practically fit, so far as physical condition is concerned. “Remember, this is a 15-round fight, and I am used to traveling that dis- tance. I am more used to long fights than Jack Sharkey is. When I do play golf you'll notice I don't do much other work. In golf I get a jaunt of about 4 or 5 miles, that's al nd we go along easily, resting now and then while waiting for the others to make their shots, “Machon has been with me for some time now and he understands just what I need. Don't you yourself think I have shown improvement?” I had to admit that I do think he shows a great improvement. Schmeling told me he plans to rest from training today. He is to go for | & 60-mile ride to Sidney, N. Y., where he will be the guest of Capt. Daniel Fox of t C, State troope: Capt. Fox and men are great friends of Schmeling. They are around the camp every day. They watch the German in his ‘workouts and at rest. They all think Max is a cinch to win, but then this may be the sort of thought that is fathered by a wish. Schmeling is practicing a great deal with his left. He has done wonders in improving it, but it really wasn't much to start with. I asked him why he was using his left so much and ap- g;rmuy neglecting his right which is most powerful weapon. “Benny, I know I punch well with my right hand,” Max said, “and when you have something down pat, as you say here in America, you never lose it For instance you learn how to ride a bicycle and you become proficient at it. Then, 'as long as you live and are able, you never lose the ability to ride s !I::'yell. You can't forget how to o Max Learning Every Day. “Now my left hand is right here stick~ ing on my shoulder and it's here to be used. So, knowing I am not proficlent in its use, I am developing it. I think I am getting along quite well.” Schmeling is, as he says, doing very well with his left hand. The fellow is learning every day. He demonstrated the left on De Mave yesterday, but he did most of his real execution with the right. He sho he has not forgot~ ten how to use his right hand when he shifted to his natural stance and let a eough 80 that were American beauties. “I read your article the other day in which you criticized my shift toward the left,” Schmeling grinned, “and I ap- preciate the tip you included in it. I really ought to remedy that pull back With the left shoulder which brought my right shoulder too far forward. “I tried holding my body in better alignment and now all I have to do is fel that easy swinging motion to the left, the same as I have in the right. What you told me is like what Herr Murray, the golf pro at Enjole Golf Club, told me about not rulllnl up. “You forget those little things until somebody who s watching, points them out to you. But do not think I am going to lose my right. Nein, nein, Herr Leonard! I tell you this 15-round distance is more to my liking that it is to Shll’ke;"s. I believe it will be I who will feel stronger as the contest proceeds rather than Sharkey. “Then you will see whether I have forgotten ‘or discarded my right hand.
