In faci, it may be that Maryland will do nothing more than get in shape to take part | i1 Catholic U's meet. North Carolina early in March will hold the indoor Bouthern Conference but it is unlikely that many schools | 4n the South Atlantic States will be beavily represented.

PANTHERS L.|ST GOPHERS MINNEAPOLIS, January 6 (#).— Minnesota will play foot ball with the University of Pittsburgh in 1933 and 1934 under a home-and-home arrange- ment. The first game will be played here October 21. The 1934 date, at Pittsburgh, has not been set ! See Big Year Ahead. ENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL'S bas- ket ball team is getting set for determined stand against We Friday in one of the opening games of the public high school championship series. The Blue, which finished in a tie for the title a championships, | with Eastern last season, is keen for a | win over the Georgetowners in order to get off on the right foot in its drive for the title. Central is especially hot after the basket ball crown this Winter, for with court laurels tucked away it figures it will have a great chance to go on to victory in the other major sports—base ball, track and foot ball ‘The Blue has the best array of a around athletes it has had in yea and devotees of the Columbia Heights school appear justified in their strong hopes for a sport renaissance in 1932 Should Central win basket ball lau- rels, it would not be such a novelty. as the Blue has captured the title outright five times and tied for it twice since the first series was held in 1917 In base ball Central won its last championship in 1924. In track, a sport in which the Blue used to be the whole | show, its last victory was in 1923, and in foot ball it has not won an outright title since 1925. It tied with and Tech :n the 1927 grid series. Business High basketers will invade the George Washington gymnasium to- night for an encounter with the Colon- ial yearlings, starting at 7 o'clock.

A squad of approximately 30 al- ready has started practice, under direction of Coach Bert COggins. The boys are showing much enthusi- asm and indications are a creditable combination will be developed. John Edwards is captain of the squad end Dudley Skinker is man- ager.

In their discounted defeat the Greenies were magnificent. California _critics frankly admitted that Tulane exhibited greater drive and a better sustaired offense than U. S. C Though defeated by three touch- downs to_two, Tulane gallantly upheld the Southern standard of Rose Bowl foot ball.

EW YORK, January 6.—One sure prediction concerning sport in this new year may be made. Minnesota will enter upon a cycle of gridiron prestige such as she knew in the palmy days of the late Dr. Harry L. Wwilliams. There is no precise way of esti- mating what Bernie Bierman, who has been called back to his alma mater from Tulane, will do with the man power available at Minneapolis. But unquestionably he will do a lot. No coach in the country has greater ability to teach fundamental foot ball, which means line charge, tackling, fo lowing the oall, olocking' and inter ence. Besides, he is equipped with a tactical mind. against Southern California was amazing in its re- sour ilness, in its swift and de- | ceptive changes of direction, in its driv- ing power. Outweighed by the Trojans, | the Greenies took command at the out- set and never let up. But for the in- spired play of Ernie Pinckert that game at the Rose Bowl might well have re- sulted in a defeat for the mighty men of Los Angeles and, even with Pinckert going great guns, Tnlane would have Jhad an excellent chance to win had it not been for several disastrous fumbles, At Minneapolis Bierman will deal with bigger and brawnier material.

ULANE'S pl IERMAN'S problem, it seems, will relate solely to the application of speed to his giant Northmen and the development of some such spirit as inflamed his Tulane players. It would, of course, be too much to expect that he will be able to kindle fire in his Gophers of intensity equal to that which characterized the Greenies. Any man of magnitism finds little diffculty in steaming up the players of Dixle. Spirited action is of the essence of al- most any Southern foot ball outfit.

BY TOM DOERER. EDS BARRY of Mohawk Club galloped under the wire last night at Alexandria, Va. with a you-and-me verdict in his setto with Natie Brown of California Maybe I'm wrong, as usual, but the clawless bear of California ought to have had a shade in that grappling contest. And that is not figuring, either, that the big native son means any- thing to the heavyweight boxing di- vision other than another name to clutter up an already confused de- partment. They tell me this new protege of Joe Jacobs has been slapping around such people as Max Baer and Leo Lomski and chasing Max Schmeling out of the | ring during practice skits. Maybe that's true. But from his ring display last night I would like to believe that if Brown chased Schmeling out of the ring it must have becn with a threat to borrow a dollar from the grenadier of the Rhine. And if he nailed Leo Lomski, | the Seattle woods- man, to the floor seven times must have been by throwing Joe Jacobs at Leo when-the referee was not | looking. Don’t get me that Natie is terrible. But he is not a heavyweight you would want to write to the folks about, be- | cause if you were to try and tell them what you thought of big Natie it would | take some deep thinking to remember when you last saw the Bear when he was not in a huddle. Magbe Natie did not look 50 warm in tht eight-rounder because Reds was on the upgrade. The Washington flame- pate was going very sweet for the first four rounds. Then he dropped far be- hind when the Californian’s body blows began to take toll. Barry is too young— he is 17, or is it 187—to step fast in anything over six rounds. However, the stablemate of the world champfon Was not so hot & number as the upward of 2,000~eustomers thought he would be. Maybe he was slightly out of order last night and was not ticking properly. But if he was in good chape, then he wants to quit kidding about’ chasing Schmeling out of the i. For a big fellow who is credited with 35 fights, 18 of them by the kayo routs, he made a very poor showing against a kid who is jurt beginning to ring toddle. Yet, it was an interesting tussle in cpots. Interesting in that the referee, Charlie Short, had to work harder than the fighters. And to see a referee try- ing to pry two big boys apart is a worthwhile attraction any night. But there should be no credit taken away from Barry. He is a lettuce patch at the moment, but with a fighting heart and plenty of love for the game. Let him tuck away & few more battles with fellows similar to the overtouted Brown and the boy from the Mohawk Club is going to move right along. While the big bout was marred by prolonged holding and clinching, it had | its good spots when the boys opened up and shot at random. Brown seemed {0 get the better of these wild explosions, yet failed to show the earmarks of an | experienced fighter when the Washing- ton boy presented him with many op- portunities.
