Travels to Play Mc;i;land, Navy : Eastern Reveals Dates for ,Two Sports 0L LINERSHOS T0GADETS TONGHT George Washington Shows Punch in Disposing cf De Paul, 35 to 28. BY H. C. BYRD. IRGINIA MILITARY INSTI- TUTE'S basket ball team comes this way today on a two-game trip. Tonight the Cadets meet Maryland in Ritchie Coliseum and tomorrow go to Annapolis to play Navy. The V. M. I.-Maryland contest begins at 8:15, while the V. M. I-Navy game is at 4 o'clock. Down at Lexington 10 days ago Maryland won from V. M. I by a great spurt after the first 10 minutes of play. When that game was about 10 minutes | old the Old Line five was on the short | end of a 12-fo-1 count, with the out- | look anything but bright. In the lag- | ter stages, though, the Gold and Black | played much better basket ball and wound up with a victory. | Maryland ought to win tonight, as it | s one of the best teams it has ever rned cut, perhaps the best. V. M. L | though, if it were to perform as it did | in the first half down at Lexington probably would give the local school | one of the rudest jolts it ever got on a | basket ball fioor. EORGE WASHINGTON has & good basket ball team, and if it loses | any game this season on its own floor it will be a surprise. The Colo- nials have the knack of getting to the | right place at the right time and have | their pesses and shots timed far bet- | ter than any opposing five ever will | have. But, be that as it mav. there | is not the least doubt that the Buff | and Blue has a five that should prove | exceptionallv difficult for any team it meets any time or anvwhere In Burgess and Parrack the local | schonl has two expsrienced and fast- | playing forwards and in Cbambers and | Zahn guards of first rank. Hertzler | 2t center is hardly up to the standard | of the other men. but nevertheless is | a good player.

In gencral floor play it | seemed every bit es good es George Washington, but in dropping the ball | through the basket for voints, which, | after all, is what counts, it did not | quite measure up. George Washington got away with one play consistently all evening that seemed too simple to work more than once against experienced men. It was an easy variation of the old forward | to forward play. with Burgess making | the shot, end time after time he had | a clear fling at tHe basket.

SAN FRANCISCO, January 26— Ernie Nevers, former Stanford Univer- sity fullback, described by Coach Glenn Warner as “the greatest player I ever coached or saw,” is definitely out of the playing end of foot ball, having an- nounced his intention to quit the game while “still in_one piece.” Nevers had been a professional since 1926. He played his final game at Kezar Stadium here Sunday and car- ried out of it a broken wrist, incurred ir the last play. Nevers' plans are indefinite, but he has ambitions to become a coach. He will confer with University of Nevada cfficials in the near future. He said, liowever, he would prefer to be an as- sistant coach at Stanford. As captein of his team in Nevers led the way to Stanford's fi victory over California in many years Sunday he scored all his team's peints. During his five years of professional foot ball he has played approximately 100 games. He thinks the greatest play- ers he lined up with or against are “Red” Grange, Hickalake, Hagarski, Slater and Keisling. HOWARD FROSH TRIUMPH Take Measure of Dunbar Basketers 22-t0-20 Battle.

The best he could do was get on the relay squad. “My main reason for thinking we | won’t win these races, however, is that otner countries, especially England, have better runners. “I understand Douglas Lowe, winner of the 800 in the last two Olympiads, is training for a come-back. You have seen him run—and how! He's the smoothest foot-racer I ever watched and a grand sportsman, to boot. “Another great English runner is G. H. Rampling, the quarter-miler, whc has been running close to world record time. The Germans have some fine quarter and half milers, too. “Ladoumegue, the Frenchman, has broken world records for the quarter- mile and mile and he would be tough to beat at the half. Sera Martin of | France has broken the 800 meter record and will have to be figured on. “As 1 see it, about the only Olympic track and field events we can be fairly hopeful of winning are the 100, 200, high jump, pole vault, relays and hlih hurdles. Last time we didn't win the sprints or the hurdles.” Rampling Flashes Speed. Speaking of Rampling, the British quarter-miler, it may be noted that this runner was clocked in the phenomenal | time of 46 3-5 seconds for the last 400- meter leg of a 1,600-meter relay race in which the British beat the Germans |at_Cologne late last year.

FULLER, Jr. ASTERN .HIGH SCHOOL'S foot ball schedule for this year has just been com- pleted and most of the base ball games the Lincoln Parkers will play have been arranged. Booking of a game with Alex- andria High for September 30, in the Eastern Stadium, completed the gridiron Il§t, which includes, in addition to the four public high school encounters and the Alexan- dria tilt, three other contests out- side of the series. Eastern will make desperate efforts to get back in the foot ball sun this year and Chief Guyon, who will replace Mike Kelley as coach, has decided to hold Spring practice, starting about the middle of March and continuing sev- eral weeks. A majority of members of the 1931 squad are listed to return and the Lincoln Parkers have high hopes of better things. The Chief plans to de- vote the Spring training to finding out Jjust what material he, can count upon and instruction in fundamentals. In base ball it apvears Eastern will be hard put to bag its fifth win in as | many seasons, as the team has lost a half-dozen or so mainstays. It will have back, however, Dick Lanahan, erack southpaw pitcher, who is captain, and several others who have shown ability and it would not surprise to see Guyon turn out another rattling good team. Episcopal High will be Eastern’s first cpponént in foot ball, the game to be played on the Episcopal grid September 24. Gonzaga and Washington-Lee are the other teams, in ddition to Alexan- dria to be met outside of the series. Alexandria is the only school on the list that was not on the 1931 Eastern schedule. Sixteen games have been arranged for Eastern's base ball team and a half dozen .or so will be added. Episcopal, Emerson. Navy Plebes, St. Albans, Alex- andria High. Gonzaga, Georgetown Prep, Maryland Freshmen and Washington- Lec High are opponents listed aside from public high rivals. Emerson, Gon- zaga and Georgetown Prep are 10 be met twice.

Even at times| when there is no defense. | However, Tony Sant:ni’s victory in the Campbell Sweepstakes Saturday | night gives strong credence to Prancis’ contention. Tony came out of bowling | nowhere, from far back in the pack, to | come bouncing home with a one-pin | victory over Ed Blakeney, the Baltimore wizard “ Many things can be given credit for Santini’s victory. It might have been that the alleys were “right” for him, the weather his kind and the breaks all In his favor. He may step up on the same alleys tonight and show .plater form. You mever know in bowling where the next champion is coming from. Nor where he will land in the next tourney, Which | makes the game interesting, with luck | and the breaks no small factor in' winning and losing.
