Runners to Compete on Coast : Ace Bowlers Shoot for 5-Year Honors HILLTOPPERS JON GREATEST IVASON 236 Easterners Lured by Intercollegiates and Olympic Trials. BY H. C. BYRD. EORGETOWN is planning to send at least five mem- bers of its track team to| the Pacific Coast in June to take part in the intercollegiates, and in the Olympic tryouts if they make good in the intercollegiates. | The Blue and Gray squad, with| Coach Jimmy Mulligan, will leave Philadelphia June 19, with 236 other athletes representing East- ern colleges and universities, to travel en masse in a de luxe train to Berkeley, Calif., where the in- tercollegiates are to be held on the track of the University of California. | Probably the group of athletes | scheduled to leave Philadelphia for the | ‘West Coast will be the greatest galaxy of track and field men that ever started for a meet on the same train. Certainly the East has never sent such a living armada out to what in athletic vernac- ular might be called foreign territory. The writer came near saying to the conquest of foreign territory, but, re- membering the record of Far Western teams in the East in the last few years, the conquest part was left out. CCORDING to present figures 241 athletes, with their trainers, coaches of the teams and man- agers, will be on the train that is io carry them to invade the West in a big way for the first time. No other group of that size has left the Eastern Seaboard in the whole history of track and field sports, and they should | furnish oodles and oodles of good copy | for the newspapers. It may be a more or less dead Spring in college sports in this immediate section, but, with the Olympics and all, it should be a pretty live Summer nationally. “In my opinion,” says Jimmy Mul- | ligan, track coach at Georgetown, ‘the | journey of the Eastern college athletes | EARCR Draks to the University of California will mark the high water of track athlet- dcs in the United States. Also it should be productive of one of the greatest meets ever held in this country. With all the Eastern schools competing on the West Coast. and many of the men remaining there to take part in the Olympic tryouts, one of the most attractive Summers track athletics has ever enjoyed is in prospect.” LL the college athletes who finish in first. second and third places | in the Intercollegiates will be kept | Chicago Faculty Not Gridiron Mad HICAGO, March 10 (®).—A sur- vey has shown that abolition of intercollegiate foot ball at the University of Chicago is favored by 51 per cent of its full professors and 40 per cent of its entire teaching staff, including assistant and asso- ciate prefessors and instructors. The survey was made through questionnaires by John M. Stal- maker, instructor in the social sci- ence department, who made the an- nouncement of its results last night. To a question whether foot ball should be encouraged by inducing good athletes to come to the uni- versity, only 9 per cent of the full professors and 17 per cent of all the teachers voted affirmatively.

It is felt that in the sense that base ball is our national game, it | is professional ball that is meant. | That is quite true. Even the base ball | rooters must admit that amateur base | ball is far from our pet fever. Base ball must be played well to be worth the watching. But if a campaign is being waged to collect the ablest foot ball players of the erstwhile big three to put on a foot ball game against the Pacific Coast | all-stars, it would be just as feasible to recruit an ali-college base ball team from the East and one from the West for a demonstration game.

The Giants have Bill Terry, and the Cards have “Sunny Jim" Bottomley, both magnetic players, featured hit- ters, and standouts. Eddie Morgan. the Indians' first-sacker, is the opposite of Grimm—he hits 350 and has a lot to learn about fielding. He is a tongue motivator in Cleveland. Jimmy Foxx, the A's first baseman, was about the most talked-of player in 1929 and 1930, but last season he slip- ped a little into the shadows. And Joe Kuhel, the high-priced Senator rookie, is expected to begin this year to show the stuff that set that figure. (Copyright, 1932. by the North American Newspaper Alliance, Inc.)

S. Event at Norfolk. BY FRANCIS E. STAN. |y TS an almost forgotten fact that back in 1928—during the first National Duckpin Con- | gress tournament—it was an- | nounced that at the end of five years the bowler who had com- | piled the greatest all-events score |for the five annual urneys would be the recipient of a dia- mond-studded medal emblematic | of that title. Those five years will be up starting March 22, when the fifth national tournament opens at Norfolk, Va., and that medal is the most highly prized token at stake to those 20 bowlers, hailing from Richmond to Massachu- setts, who are eligible. Washington, of course, will have a finger (a big one, as usual) in this particular pie, 2s 7 of the 20 are Capi- talites, while another, Jack Whalen, was a Washingtonian, though he now is residing in Richmond. Whalen is leading with a four-year total of 4,352 for the 36 games, which includes singles, doubles and team matches during all of the previous N. D. B. C. tournaments. Henry Hiser is second with 4.337; Archie Walsh of Boston is third with 4,33¢ and Red Megaw is fourth with 4,320, Whalen, however, is not the bowler today he was three or four years sgo. Hiser is nursing a sore whip, 50 as & consequence it is upon Megaw that most of the Capitalites are pinning their hopes. VICTORY for Megaw would be | popular, especially here, but it is | doubtful if a more popular tri- umph could be forthcoming nation- ally than one for Archie Walsh, the grizzled Bostonian. Walsh, to bowling, is what Jack Quinn is to base ball—the “grand old man."” One of Archie’s claims to fame is that he is the daddy of triplets. An- | other is that he Fas been bowling for |38 years. Walsh is a fine duckpin | shooter, but his specialty is candlepins, | and only three or four times a year does he indulge in duckpins. Yet even to- day he is one of the country’s best, de- pite his nearly 50 years and Bck of | practice. | _And if you doubt that, ask Messrs. Whalen, Hiser. Megaw, Harrison, Camp- bell, Wolfe, Pacinl and Fischer, who also are in the running for that five- | year all-events crown, who they, of all the out-of-towners, fear most. RARITY in duckpins today stood to the credit of the Convention Hall girls of the Women's District League. John Biick's standard bearers, rolling against the Deal Service team in a league match, rolled three games of 469 each. And Deal Service lost two of the three.
