It popped out of the hat tan area honors will be forgotten | temporarily as two feudal neigh—' bors settleqa private matter. Before this happens Central will meet Alexandria. Central is in the play-off, sponsored by The Star, by virtue of having won the championship of Wash- ington proper and Alexandria by virtue of triumph in competition among the best high school teams of Northern Vir- ginta, or, to be specific, Fairfax and Arlington Counties and Alexandria. ENTRAL and Alexandria will whirl into action on the Tech court at 4 o'clock. There will be no inter- mission to speak of between games and the preliminaries should be finished be- fore 6:30. At 8 the winners of the matinee con- tests will battle for the metropolitan championship, The Evening Star Trophy, individual awards and the glory of alma mater. Central will be a favorite over Alex- andria, an early-season contest having been won decisively. by the Washington school. The curtain-raiser, however, is ot being takén for granted by the fm C. champs. To quote Bert Coggins, Central coach, “We're taking nothing for granted in a down-and-out scrap like this. We’ve beaten Alexandria be- fore, but it was quite a while back, and those tall boys of Maurice Given may have improved more than we.” OGGINS frankly is impressed by the recent showings of Bethesda- Chevy Chase and Hyattsville. Hyattsville showed lots of fight to beat Mount Rainier for the Prince Georges County title and Bethesda- Chevy Chase surprised many a school- boy basket ball prophet by defeating the George Washington freshmen in a sizzler. Regardless of prospects to win the big title, all the youngsters look forward to the tournament as a good time. It will be a sort of indoor picnic, at that. The Star will be host to the yers at sup- T, to be served cafeteria style in the SPORTS. Pairings Made for Metro Basket Finals : G.

EVANSTON, Ill, February 18 (#).— Don Horn, Northwestern University sophomore, last night bettered the na- tional collegiate swimming record for the 200-yard breast stroke in a dual meet against the University of Michi- gan. The Wolverines won the meet, 49 to 26. Horn won his race in 2:31.3 to bet- ter the mark of 2:32.4 set last year by John Schmeiler of Michigan.

'Grimm, Grim, Is All Base Ball Talented Manager Gives Up Banjo, Comedy to Make Cubs Going Club in Flag Race. BY PAUL MICKELSON, Associated Press Sports Writer. HICAGO, February 18.—A “catastrophe” has struck the ranks of Chicago's Cubs. Charlle Grimm, now a serfous-minded manager with the National League pennant instead of musical notes on his mind, is giving up his banjo. “It’s going to be a tough race this year,” he apologlzed to his somewhat dazed mates as they wanted to know why he had left his famous banjo at home, “and I won't have time ‘lryn. We got a lot of work to do if we're going to come through this season.” Banjo playing, even by such a celebrated musician as Grimm, doesn’t win base ball pennants, but the fact that he omitted it from his Spring training trip luggage can serve as a tip that the Cub manager, one of the best comedians in the game, isn't the same. As he goes into frequent huddles today with President William L. Veeck, he is all business, dead serious, but o‘m fident. . “Who do I pick to give us & run for the pennant?” he asked. “My cholces are the Cardinals, Pittsburgh and Brooklyn.” G. U. MISHAP KINKS BASKET SCHEDULE Postponed Game With West Virginia May Be Dropped. Faces Plaid. EW YORK, February 18.—The Eastern Intercollegiate Con- ference program was badly damaged last night when the Georgetown team, due to a bus Break- down, falled to arrive at Morgantown in time to play its scheduled game with West Virginia's last-place mountaineers | and the contest was called off. Unless the teams can find some time to play it off later, the game will have to be dropped out of the conference program. West Virginia's game with Penn State at State College tonight and George- town's engagement for a conference game with Carnegie Tech made it im- possible to put the contest over a day. Tonight's clash is the first of the season between Georgetown and the Carnegle Tartans, who have played only three conference games. Carnegie, however, is second to Pitt in the stand- ng with two victories and one defeat while the Hilltoppers have only a single victory over West Virginia to show for four conference starts and are in fourth place. Standing of the teams follows: Pts. Pts. for. ag'st Pittsburgh 147 88 Carnegie Tech. Temple .. Georgetown’ West Virginia ALE'S flashy basket ball all but clinched the Eastern In- 5 tercollegiate League ~champlon- ship. The Elis toppled Columbia, 38-27, here last night for their seventh suc- cessive league victory against one de- feat and need to win only one of their two rem: games to assure them- selves of at least a tie for the title. As a matter of fact, Yale can clinch the championship beyond dispute by beating Princeton on the Tigers' home court next Wednesday. In that event the Elis could lose their final game to Cornell at New Haven March 4 and still gain the title. Their record, in that case, would be eight victories and two defeats, while every rival would have suffered at least three defeats. If Yale loses to Princeton but beats Cornell the Elis would be sure of a tie for the crown with Princeton, assuming the Tigers win all their remaining six games. T was excellent sharp-shooting by Earl Nikkel and Ben Reese that en- abled Yale to whip Columbia. Nikkel, the league's leading scorer, accounted for 16 points to run his total for eight games to 75. Reese, at guard, snared 10 points. Yale jum; to the fore at the start and never ‘relinquished the lead. Columbia, trajling, 18-7 at half time, cut the Eli advantage to 19-17, but Yale rallied again and pulled into a safe lead. Tonight Cornell, which beat Dart- mouth on Wednesday for its first vic- tory in six games, invades Princeton to battle the Tigers. Princeton will be heavily favored to win and gain undis- puted possession of second place, which the Tigers now share, on a percentage basis, with Columbia and Penn. Prince- ton has won two games and dropped two, while Columbia and Penn each have split even in six games. BISONS FACE VIRGINIANS After Revenge for Early Basket Ball Loss to Tonight's Foe.

Fred Grobmier, conqueror of Paul Jones Thursday in the “battle of hook scissors,” today was booked by Promoter Joe Turner to meet Bruno Gorasini, new Italian matman, in the semifinal match of next week's wrestling show, which will feature a bout between Gino Gari- baldi and Frank Judson;~two of the better wrestlers.

You will find Neale now at the University of Virginia, where he is the foot ball coach. Neale is a col- lege man himself and when he found himselt lllrpln‘ as a major leaguer he went right into the busi- ness of coaching foot ball. The Neales run to foot ball. A brother starred in the Yale backfield some years ago. Now that Eddie Roush has retired from base ball, that entire Red out- fleld of 1919 has slipped out of the base ball Fldure. t will be recol- lected that Pat Duncan was in left, with Eddle in center. Neale did a great job in that 1919 series, finisl with a batting aver- age of .357, which is quite a record. (Copsrisht, 1038.)
