The whole | squad probably does not average much | pver 19 years, which is about as young ®s some prep school elevens. Several of the men who will have to be depended on next Fall for regular berths, or for second-string jobs, are only 18 years of age. However, several of the youngsters act s if they should make good men, and for 1934 and 1935 the Old Liners ought | to be coming back again with good teams, and, with the type of ma- terial it gets, usually has two years of comparativ week teams and two years of fairly strong teams.

The three interrupted conversa- tionalists will be Moe Berg and Luke Sewell, catchers, and Bill McAfee, pitcher. They are the only members of the “Japanese colony” at Camp Griff. Boys who have been members of the various parties of base ball men who have junketed to Japan to teach the Nipporese lads how to shoot a curve ball without hitting the hitters. Doz~ ens of diamond stars have made the trip to the Orient in the last 10 years. But Moe, Luke and Bill are { the only representatives of the group with the Nationals. Luke made the trip some years ago, Bill made it a little later and Moe has just returned from a Win- ter's stay there. Each of the trio has yarns to spin of moonlight nights in Yokohoma znd Tokio, sunny afternoons on the college diamonds and stories of how the boys of Nippon are taking to the American game more seriously, and in more numbers, than the youths at_home.

By the Associated Press. HICAGO, March 22.—The big push for the National Catholic High School basket ball championship opens at Loyola University tonight, with six strong teams from Kentucky, Min- nesota, Tilinois and Indiana swinging | into action. St. Patrick's Academy of Chicago, surprise winner of the title last year, will open the five day and night drive AS SETTING PAC Nee, Dettweiler and Others Due to Shove Veterans Into Background. M Headed by the formid- able figure of Roger Pea- cock, young benedict from Duke University and Indian Spring, the younger crop of golfers around Washington are just about ready to move in and take possession of the bulky crop of tournaments that will be played within a few miles of the Capital this year. Taking up wnere the old-timers have leit off (they haven't been 50 prominent lately), these youngsters of the age of 21 and less are preparing for a concerted onslaught on the tournaments this year, and it would not be a bit surprising to see them win a majority of the larger events. Peacock alone is good enough to ac- count for a tournament or two, and if Maurice Nee, young Columbia star .10 developed his game at Manor, and | Bllly Dettweiler, the tall young Manor- ite who flashed into prominence last year, comes along es fast this year as | he did last, the oldsters are going to have to move along at quicker tempo than ever before to keep up. Naturally Peacock stands out as the strongest of the younger group, with Nee probably ranking second. And Roger isu't letting time slip through his hands without plenty of practice at | | Duke University and on courses i the Carolinas. He writes Harry Peacock, his dad, that he is playing better than | ever. AKE way for the kids in 1933. T'S too early, of course, to predict | that the winning days of such vet- erans as Miller B. Stevinson, Harry | G. Pitt and one or two others are over. Both these men—perennial rivals of | past seasons—still pack plenty of punch, with Pitt in particular carrying a wallop that will take a lot of beat- ing. But Peacock, Nee and Dettweiler have come so fast over the past year they cannot be kept back much longer if their progress continues. Strangely enough, the victory of Peacock in the District championship Jast September was his first and only major win of a local tourney. But after that victory his confidence, lack- ing previously, _ was noticeably bol- stered. Young Nee is the District jun- |ior champion, and a worthy one. at 18 years of age a golfer who can hold his own in any company. | Dettweiler, w will be 15 years old soon, hasn't yet steadied down. He is | as likely to be 82 as 72. But the kid is | quite capable “of turning on enough | here to erase any one from the pic- ture at any time. 4 ND the roll of youngsters does not end with these three. There are Dick Lunn of Burning Tree, the young Friends School slugger, who at 18 is one of the strongest of the Billy Shannon. the ;sh‘llst from Columbia who qualified at Chevy Chase last year when many and | better known golfers failed to make the grade: Junior Slater, a tall young- ster who hits the ball a long way; A. S. Gardiner, jr., also of Columbia, a steady performer who can score down in the low 70s often enough to cause trouble, and the fine playing J. Munro Hunter, who has been out of competition for nearly a year. Of the old guard Stevin- son and Pitt stand out as the best per- formers. But Stevinson failed to win a tournament last year and Pitt won only one—the invitation event of the Baltimore Country Club. Peacock is the eldest of the young- sters—a veteran tournament player at the age of 21. The others have had enough tournament experience, even | though they have not vet reached their | majority, to cause quite a rumpus in tournaments, particularly young Nee, | who made a fine showing in his first | essay at the national amateur last year. | It looks like a big year for the kids. ‘Watch 'em go. WEDNKESDAY, : Youths May Rule Smaller Greens His “If” Golf Cure 'NNIS BROWN, national golfing authority, suggests that if a change in the game is desirable —he does not believe it is—putting greens should be cut down to 25 feet and thus put the premium on the approach shot instead of on putting. Under the present green rules all areas within 20 yards, ex- cept hazards, are putting green ter- ritory. Whether the actual putting sur- face is that large or not, the rules allow it. So if a change is desired, Mr. Brown thinks conditions should be so changed that no golfer is called upon to make, say, a 35-foot putt. Then there would be no necessity. of changing par on any course. D. C. GOLF PROS TRAVEL will Play at Pinehurst and Vir- ginia Beach in April. Quite a group of local golf pros are planning to leave the Capital for Pine- | hurst next Sunday, with at least four of the Washington mentors planning to play at Pinehurst and at Virginia Beach early in April. Those who are sure to go to Pinehurst include Al| Houghton of Kenwood, Sandy Armour of Corgressional, George Diffenbaugh of Indian Spring and Mel Shorey of East Potomac Park. Fred McLecd of Columbia, a former winner of the north and south, hasn't yet made up his mird to go.

Charlie Penna, the popular stutter- ing caddy master at Congressional, has left the club for good. Last year he thought he would get a job in Detroit, which didn’t materialize, but this year Tommy Armour, for whom Penna works in the Winter, has decided to take Charlie with him to the Medinah Club of Chicago. Penna has golf am- bitions and certainly if he hit all his shots like he occasionally hits a long iron he would win a flock of champion- ships. But where he is a good player from tee to green, his putting has let him down badly, and time after time Charlie has seen a round that should have been 72 slide up to 78, all through indifferent putting.

ORONTO, Ontario., March 22— Ralph Metcalfe, Marquette Uni- versity's great dash man, has added the Canadian indoor sprint crown to his championship trophies and avenged, at the same time, his sole defeat of the board track season. Metcalfe set up a new Canadian record of 6.2 seconds in winning the 60-yard title of the Canadian cham- pionships here last night, nosing out Bert Pearson, Hamilton schoolboy, and Emmett Toppino of New Orleans in & blanket finish. It was Toppino who handed Metcalfe his only defeat of the indoor season. The Southerner had to be content with third place last night, trailing both Metcalfe and Pearson to the tape. LEN CUNNINGHAM, University of eorge Spitz of New and Milton Sand- ler of the German-American A. C., New York, also turned in impressive vic- | tories.
