U. in Action Today. SO | BY H. C. BYRD. HILE, of the five local colleges that have basket ball games tonight, American University is theé only one scheduled to meet ane of the so-called big schools, | the other four are just as likely te have hard sledding. George-| town, Catholic University, Gal- laudet and Maryland have op- ponénts not regarded as out- standing, yet all have good quints and should be difficult to defeat Temple University, De Paul Uni- versity of Chicago, Baltimore Uni- versity and Johns Hopkins have strong outfits capable of battling down to the last ditch in most of their games. Catholic University and Gallaudet play on their home floors, but even with that advaniage are pretty like'y to find the way to victory beset with il kinds of difficulties. De Paul Uni- versity gave up foot ball last Fall, but anmounced that it would pay special attention to basket ball. And out in that section basket ball generally is of & higher grade than here. Baltimore Unitersity probably will place on the floor & considerably more experienced five than Gallaudet. Temple University, Georgetown's op- ponent, has been coming right along in all branches of athletics and in basket ball 8 niot weaker, comparatively, than in other sports. It should give George- | town & lively evening. And the same | thing is true of Johns Hopkins against Maryland. Hopkins whipped Loyola, which won from Maryland, and has more than & hope of trimming the Oid | Liners. Anyway, Hopkins has the best five it has shown in many years, per- | haps since it first put out a basket ball tesm, Anietican University realizes it has a | eat chance to win a place in the sun | n_its game with Navy. The local | achool has one of the strongest quints | that have worn its colors. Of course, Navy, Whipped by Maryland Wednes- dAy night, will be a tough team to | meet, even for a much larger a.‘hool‘ than American University. But, even | 80, there is no doubt that American U. | has one of the best chances it has ever | had to make a good showing at An- DApONS. THLETICS have such an impor- tant place in the life of the mod- ern university that no longer is it necessary to defend them, as they have certain valués well recognized in the educstional world, according to brief | remérks made last night by President | | half block with a 365 total.

Guard (5) has the ball and immediately passes it to center (1). No. 5 then breaks toward mid- court and takes a position back of 1's opponent to block him as 1 first feints to his left ere breaking to the right for a dribble, thus getting a lead on his opponent. Meantime, left forward (2) starts from the side of the court toward the middle and then turns to the edge of the foul circle, where he receives a pass from 1. No. 1 now breaks around 2 without slacking speed, takes a short pass from 2 and dribbles in for a shot. No. 3 and 5 follow up NEW CENTER FOR VICS Hayes to Play for Semi-Pros, Wh> Face Parksburg Tomorrow. Jim Hayes, a center, standing 6 feet 5 inches, who formerly played on Texas hardwood, has been signed for Vic Sport | Shop basket ball quint and is slated to If Northwestern conquers | get action tomorrow when that semi- | pro quint engages Parksburg, Pa., Pros at_Silver Bprlnfi Armory.

In Passon Pros of Philadelphia, Wash- ington’s other semi-pro quint, Skinker Eagles, will be facing tomorrow after- noon on the Bolling Field court a team which boasts 25 wins in 26 starts this season. It will be the first visit of the team to this city and is set for a stout bid to be the first quint to down the Eagles this season. G. P.

Diegel’s Bridge Rivals Golf Leo Rated Not Far Behind Lenz, Whom He Terms World’s Best By the Assoclated Press. | GUA CALIENTE, Mexico, January 23.—“Larrupin’ Leo" Diegel, twice P. G. A. champion and winner or runner-up in dozens of other links tournaments, is almost as good at the bridge table as at the tee. That's news to thousands who follow golf. The Agua Caliente golf profes- sional ranks as an expert only a putt or two back of such great pasteboard artists as Sidney Lenz, whom he describes as the “greatest card player in the world,” and Ely Culbertson, whose contract system he uses. “Golf first and bridge second— that's the way the two games rank | in my estimation,” Diegel sald to- | ered one of three it contract which Card Player. had places of honor In his room with his goif clubs. Diegel said he found it a continual source of surprise that so few golf experts played bridge. “At any of the big tournaments,” he sald, “it's difficult to get up a game. Wild Bill Mehlhorn is a great card player and Craig Wood, George Von Elm and Gene Sarazen are good bridge players. However, I think Mrs, Saragen plays a bet- ter game than Gene, and Mrs. Von Elm could play with any of them,” too. Leo said he always plays his worst bridge during a golf tournament, but “it's a great way to release the ten- sion that naturally grips a golfer at such times.” Qualifications for good playing, whether at bridge or golf, Leo said, are about the same. One should begin young, have a knack for it and a quick thinking brain, and one should never lose his self-control, for that would shake his copfidence.
