Race GALLAUDET HOLDS LONE MATEH HERE Georgetown in North, While American and Maryland Invade Virginia. BY H. C. BYRD. F the six basket ball games to be played tonight and tomorrow by local colleges the only one scheduled here is between Gallaudet and Lynchburg College. That is to take place tomor- row night in the Tech High School gymnasium. Georgetown, American and Maryland, the other college teams scheduled for games, all are to show their wares on Joreign floors. The Hoyas, victors over Canisius last night, 28 to 26, continue | & trip by meeting Colgate today and | New York University tomorrow. The | Eagles leave today on a two-day jour- ney in Virginia to play Virginia Medical College and Hampden-Sidney. The Old Liners take the train tonight for Blacksburg, where they will face Vir- ginia Polytechnic Institute /tomorrow it. Gailaudet's game with Lynchburg probably will not draw a good deal of public support, but it should. If there is ome institution in the District of | Columbia to which the public ought to be glad to lend aid in the development of athletics, that is Gallaudet. The | Kendall Greeners are as coura- | geous in their attitude toward athletics | as any of the other colleges. In fact,| most of the others might call it a day | and let it go at that if they had the | difficulties to overcome that are en-| countered at Gallaudet. | In the only tilt here last night Catho- | lic U. won over North Carolina State in a snappy battle, 26 to 23. | MERICAN UNIVERSITY probably | will meet two pretty fair basket | ball teams at Virginia Medical | School and Hampden-Sidney. The Vir- ginia Medics are likely to be older and | more experienced, while Hampden-Sid- | ney usually is represented by about as | good a five as is found among the small colleges. If the local school comes back with an even break, it will have done well. IEQRGETOWN faces two strong teams in Colgate and N. Y. U. The latter especially turns out good | basket ball teams, and any time any fve from this section goes up to New ‘York and brings back a Violet scalp it may well be excused for a bit of swag- gering. To face Canisius College, Colgate and N. Y. U. on consecutive nights is about | as much of a basket ball assignment as any college wants. MARYLAND engages in its first game | since 1t lost to Wisconsin in its | __opening contast here Deckmberr 22, The teama probably has not im- | proved a good deal since that time, as | practice sessions have been limited by | the holidays. The Old Liners, though, | expect to come along fairly well from now on, and Coach Shipley gives an opinion that they will be mighty hard to beat in another two or three weeks. T begins to seem that there will be | very little indoor track and field work among colleges in this section this Winter. From the present out- look none is making much preparation for a Winter schedule. Lack of train- ing facilities and virtually no opportu- nities for competition are the reasons. Georgetown is about the only college that has an outdoor track. Some of the others have indoor tracks large encugh | to do some training on, but many are | without anything like adequate facilities, | and none has such facilities as some of the Northern schools, which, with their big cages, can do almost as good work for indoor meets as when they get outdoors in the Spring. But the biggest stumbling block is the lack of opportunities for competi- tion. So far as is known, the possi-| bility of North Carolina holding its | indoor games is about the only meet in which the colleges will get a chance to take part, unless they go North to Philadelphia, New York or Boston, and, with the present financial situation in ‘most of the colleges, indoor track teams are not going to do a whole lot of | traveling. ASKET ball observers, surprised by | Catholic U’s victory over North| Carolina State, today were hailing | Coach Forest Cotton's rejuvenated Cardinals as a smart quint. It was a vastly different C. U. team last night than that which encountered | so much apparent difficulty downing the much-beaten Maryland State Nor- mal quint and which lost to Seton Hall and La Salle. Against the best team | the Cards opposed this season the Cot- ton-coached "tossers played heads-up | all The benching of Capt. Lou Spinelli and Dick Galiher, who had been per- forming in regular roles, was vindicated when Abe Rosenfield and Gene Augus- terfer, sophomore replaceme fitted in well with the veterans Sheary and Eddie White, and another soph. Babe Gearty. Ability to convert free throws, of which they cashed in on 10| of 15, coupled with smart pass! defensive work, won for the Ca C.

Jack Crowley sunk a | snowbird to give Georgetown a 25-to-24 lead which the Hoyas never relin- quished. Georgetown owley. £... Sorpten.

Her specialty for the water trade will be the much publicized two-and-one-half somersault, the one- and-one-half somersault and some back- ward and forward flips, including her version of the swan dive. This young lady from Frisco, who, by the way, is en route home after Olympic triumphs, is to furnish the fancy work for a swimming bill of fare which includes matches between boys and girls from the Ambassador Yaried Sports College Basket Ball.

Records cracked in the many events will be officially recognized and an ef- ficient corps of officials will be hand at the Venetian pool to clock the natators. But from what I can gather from Mrs. Florence Skadding Mol v knows her swimming, this two- half turn which Miss Coleman features is a home run, a touchdown and a bullseye act. As I understand it, a lot of gal swimmers can do two turns, but when it comes to adding that extra half-fiip it takes a water wizard. Yes sir, Mrs. Morris is more pepped about this two-and-a-half business than most people are about one that calls for three-point-two. I hazily, understand that the Cali- fornia peach goes into two revolutions in the air, starts on another and, wom- | an-like, changes her mind and starts back, making the last turn just a half | turn. Maybe that's wrong. But Mrs. Morris | has spent no little time in describing, with gestures, just how this is done. And if Mrs. Morris can't make me understand a two-and-a-half turn in the air, then it's my fault and not Mrs. Morris’", But from Mrs. Morris’ enthusiasm in describing the air flip, ¥ know that it must be a peach, even if I cannot visualize it. Having a young lady swimmer doing somersaults on your drawing board to prove something shows that she is in earnest, and interested in her work. Accompanying Mrs. Mortis, and oc- casionally aiding in_the description of the two-and-one-half spin, was Marie Duvall, a 16-year-old youngster from the Coast. Marie, hewever, was saving the acrobatics for tomorrow night, when he competes in the diving and back- roke events for women. Marie, Mrs. Morris says, ces in swimming. At 10 years of age, California youngster was rated a digy. But she gave up the sport for is going | & few years to.come back last year to end the season with a victory over Onalene Lawrence and Lois Bates in an A. A. U. meet. Tnae latter girls are not swimming bench-warmers, either. Marie, says Florence, is going to cut a wake in the local pools this season which may bring her national prominence. And Sweet Marie, teetering on her toes during the gossiping, merely smiles. But Marie has enough energy, enough youth, to cause her to smile and, plus her ability, ought to go grinning her | way clear to the top.

QUINT PRIMES TO MEET OLD LINERS Shifts Forced for Tilt Tomorrow Night When Palmer, a Guard, Is Ruled Ineligible. LACKSBURG, Va., January 6—His hopes of a winning team hit by loss of Benny Palmer at guard, Monk Younger, basket ball coach at Virginia Poly, is resorting to the jug- gler's art. He shifted the Tech players around hurriedly in an effort to un- cover a strong combination to greet Maryland when the Old Liners inaugu- rate the 1933 indoor season in Memo- rial Hall here tomorrow evening Palmer, who in two campaigns had proved Tech's ablest running guard, failed in a part of his engineering course and was declared ineligible. Younger is trying Capt. Bus Hall, veteran forward, in Palmer's old posi- tion. He also has taken Byron Belote, center, and placed him in a forward berth alongside Dave Thomas, a soph- omore. Three other newcomers—Ray Mills, George Smith and Duncan Holscla who galloped impressively in the Poly backfield last Fall, are battling Heinie Groth, a veteran, for the other guard position. If any one of the sophs comes through, the Tech mentor probably will send Capt. Hall back to forward. Veterans Al Seaman and Paul Wolfe will share duties at center. Other candidates who have a good chance to break into the line-up are Block and Reynolds, centers; Schrie- berg, Ehrke, Downing and Russell, guards, and Craig, Kibler, Robinette and Weede, forwards. 20 YEARS AGO THE STAR.

American League. HICAGO, January much better balanced race is my forecast for 1933 in | the American League. A year ago I predicted the Athletics | }would have more competition |than during the previous three seasons. They did. In fact, the | Yankees won the pennant by as | great a margin as the Athletics | had been in the habit of winning and a one-sided race was the re- | sult. Because of that one-team contest, 6.—A | | of St. Louis, Washington had to part with three stars, Outfielders Carl Rey- | | nolds and Sam West and Pitcher Lloyd Rrown. In fact, the Browns believe they got the better of the deal. Inci- | dentally, the Browns finished the year | vith a sensational third baseman,”Art | Scharein, LEVELAND has another first base- man in Harley Boss, who had a ctacular season in the Southern | ue last year; while from Toledo it | cbtained Hale, who may crowd Willie | Kamm off third base; a splendid young catcher in Pytlak and at least two promising young pitchers in Bean and Winegarner. New York made no trades, but did purchase from Class AA league teams | three pitchers, Van Atta of St. Paul, | Deshong of Sacramento and Brennan | of Newark. At any rate, the American League clubs have shown a greater disposition to_trade and introduce new faces. Your league president also caught the fever and added two new umpires to the official staff in William Summers | and Louis Kolls of the International | League. SIS SR SCHOOL TOSSERS - FACING BUSY CARD | American League clubs have made many | player changes which will, to the best of my belief, result in the Yankees be- | ing provided with much stiffer compe- | titlon than in 1932. If we had a four | or five club race last season, the Amer- | ican League probably would have played | to more people than in 1931 |, Now, with numerous changes made in | the rosters of the seven clubs that fin- ished behind New York, I cannot see anything but a better battle for the | pennant and that means increased at- tendance, White Sox, for many years the out- standing pennant contender of our league, being restored to first division strength with the addition of Out- flelders Simmons and Haas, and Third Baseman Dykes of Philadelphia, Pitcher Durham and Infielder Rhyne of Boston. Chicago, also, i§ banking on Pitcher Vic able to pitch winning base ball. ‘While Philadelphia parted with three star players, Connie Mack is confident that he has in Cramer, Coleman, Finney of replacing the men he sold to Chicago and keeping his team high up in the race Washington made three deals that tended to make the ‘Nationals stronger contenders than they were last season. In Manush, Goslin and Shulte, they will have one of the hardest-hitting outfields in the history of our league. President Clark Griffith and Manager Joe Cronin have also made changes in the Wash- ington pitching staff, adding two vet | eran southpaws in Whitehill and Stew. art in exchange for Lloyd Brown, Fred Marberry and Dick Coffman. With Crowder, Weaver, Whitehill, Stewart, Al Thomas and McAfee, Washington will be equipped with six starting pitchers. HE exchange of Whitehill for Mar- berry and Fischer is expected to aid Detroit as well as Washington. Both Marberry and Whitehill appar- ently needed a change in scenery. Stanley Harris is confident that Mar- berry will deliver for him in Detroit as he did in Washington. Detroit also has some sensational youngsters to be de- veloped this year in pitcher Rowe, Catcher Rieber and Outfielder Fox of Eekaumont and Shortstop Owen of New- ark. Chicago. The Red Sox added four but high left field fence in Boston to drive against. Right now, it looks cer- tain as if Outfielder Seeds and Infielder Mulleavy, included in that deal, would be installed as regulars at Boston, with a chance of Hodapp, former Cleveland star, staging a comeback.

OS ANGELES, January 6—Ath- letes who were ineligible be- cause of three previous years of competition represented “at least members of the Pacific Coast Con= ference during 1931 and 1932, the re- port of Jonathan A. Butler disclosed today. The report on the general athletic conditions of the conference was the result of 15 months' investigation by Butler at the behest of the universities. The report in general gave the con- ference a clean bill of health. “During the period of this surve said Butler's report, “athletes who were ineligible because they previously had three years of varsity competition have represented at least six member universities in intercollegiate athletics. These athletes in most instances were men who had transferred from other colleges None of these athletes or their schools was named in the report. Butler said the recruiting of athletes and the giving of financial aid through outside sources, jobs, 1oans and scholar- ships prevailed at most of the institu- uons. In all cases, he said, either no conference rule against it was found or the question of violation was dee | batable. | . Among 24 suggestions Butler proposed | the conference consider raising its academic standards for athletic eligibil- ity, limit athletic participation of any man to his first eight semesters and | abolish freshman competition. He | recommended the conference determine | the propriety of good-will tours of high | schools by coaches and the offering of Jjobs and scholarships to athletes. |Recommended by Athletic Board | to Succeed Warner—Nevers | Will Be Chief Aide. | By the Associated Press.

His appointment to succeed Warner as head coach awaits approval of Dr. | Robert E. Swain, acting president of the university, and the university’s board of trustees. This approval is general considered a formality. Warner resigns to become foot ball coach at Temple. The athletic board last night also recommended Ernie Nevers, former Stanford fullback and an aide to Warner in 1932, as Thornhill's chief assistant. Thornhill, Stanford assistant coach, announced acceptance of the post and one of the first to offer congratulations ‘was Warner. “The best possible selection,” was his comment. TRAPSHOTS TO COMPETE.
