W.s Base Ball Opener Thursday Is Highlight. Relays Attract. BY H. C. BYRD. OCAL college athletes today enter the biggest week of competition they have had this Spring. Georgetown's ball team comes back from its trip to open its home season, George Washington begins the first dia- mond schedule it has played in years, Georgetown and Maryland have relay fours entered in the Penn relays, Maryland plays two base ball games and also has one in lacrosse, and several of the schools have tennis or golf matches. Temple University tomorrow will help | Georgetown inaugurate its home dia- mond schedule. The Philadelphians have s good college nine, but the Blue and ful of & successful begin- x?i;l‘l" ‘h}lo';me is to be played at 3:30 on the new diamond, up by the new Medical School.

In fact, Burning Tree ’ASHINGTON was & mecca for visiting golf celebrities over the week end. Three nationally famous golfers, one of them & ranking player and for- mer champion known wherever the conversation turns to divots and stymies, another a Walker Cup team member, | and the third a campaigner well. known for his victories in the South, played local courses over Saturday and Sunday. | Francis Ouimet, national amateur | champion in 1914 and 1931, open cham- pion of 1913, and the man who as a boy brought golf from an obscure spot back in the lower left-hand corner of the sport page to column 1, page 1, played two rounds of the course of the Burning Tree Club, and is back in Boston today with pleasant memories of a week end spent as a member of the Senatorial breakfast foursomes—that exclusive or- ganization which includes many of the | Nation'’s more famous political figures. He left last night for his home, accom- panied by Bill Danford, a Boston friend and business associate. ILLY HOWELL, the Richmond youngster, who carried Oulmet to | the thirty-fifth green before suc- | cumbing to the Boston master in the semi-final round of the 1931 amateur championship, wound up his week end visit to Columbia playing the course | again with Miller B. Stevinson, Martin | F. McCarthy, Fred McLeod and Walter McCallum. The other noted golfing visitor was Three National Stars Among Week-End Golfers in Capital; Stumps Ouimet John B. Ryerson of Cooperstown, N. Y., who usually wins a flock of tournaments in the South and stops here on his way north in the Spring. Ouimet’s visit here was entirely un- heralded. He slipped quietly into town Saturday, played a round of golf with friends, and played again at Burning Tree with former Senator Hiram Bing- ham of Connecticut, Senator Daniel O. Hastings of Delaware and Richard 8. Whaley, former rent commis- sioner. Francis was not here for seri- ous golf. On Saturday he knocked the | ball around that rugged layout at Burn- | ing Tree for & 75, 3 above par, but yes- terday he was just out for a good time. Scattering his shots all over the land- scape, he took 83 for the round. But the famed Ouimet smile never stopped beaming. over the Bostonian's counte- nance, 'OWELL played far betier at Co- lumbia yesterday than he played Saturday. Paired with McLeod, the Richmond youngster and his profes- sional ‘pnrmer gave the other three a 2-and-1 drubbing, with Billy scoring & 75 and showing at least two shots of the type that have won him high na- tional ranking. From a bunker at the right of the eighth green he nearly holed an explosion shot. And he car- ried a high brassie second shot past the pin at the par 5 twelfth hole. The shot that won the match came from Mc- Leod’'s putter, a curling putt across a | slope that found the.bottom of the tin on the fifteenth green. scored a 75 for the round.

Out in Cleveland is a young chap of | the name of Jesse Owens whc seems to | be something of a track star. At least | he has the makings. In a meet Satur-| day he ran the 100-yard dash in 9.6 seconds, equaling the world scholastic record, and, besides that, won the broad | jump and the 220-yard dash. By the time that young man is a senior in col- lege he ought to be able to get along fairly well. Right now there probably are not more than five college men in the United States with any hope of running a gentury as fast as Owens ran Saturday. And Owens is said to have run against the wind. There are a good many hard-boiled college track coaches ‘who might be inclined to say that the timing possibly veas not as perfect as it might have been. i extremely doubtful if lacrosse, as | now played with 10 men on a short- ened field, is going to be as inter- esting as last year, when it was played with 12 men on a long field. Saturday Navy and Maryland, for the last 10 years among the best four or five teams in the country, gave about as good a demonstration of the new game as has | yet been seen, and it was not partic- | ularly impressive. | About the only factor in which the| new game seems to be a little superior i that one team or the other is con-| stantly pecking away at the other’s goal. There is practically no middle- fleld play under the new rules. As soon as & team clears the ball away from| 1ts own goal there is hardly any chance that it will be prevented taking the offensive and shots at its opponent’s al. It may be that as the new game comes a little more familiar, with #ts rapidly changing attack from one goal to the other, it will be more in- teresting, but not much that is favor- able has as yet been said, either by eoaches or by spectators, over the game of last year. Incidentally, it might be mentioned that the lacrosse game was| a real battle until Navy broke some- what about the middle of the second half and allowed Maryland to ring up goals very rapidly. - While Navy was taking & trouncing from Maryland in lacrosse, its track team was administering the same dose to the Old Liners in that sport. Wid- myer’s victories in the 100 and 220 and the showing of other Maryland runnenrs in these two events were the bright spots as far as Maryland was concerned. Navy won by a big margin and did so because of its well balanced | team. In the hurdles, distances and| field events Navy had all the ad-| vantage.

OSTON, April 2¢—At least seven new National A. A. U. champions will be crowned during the marathon battling that opens late today at the arena and continues until Wednesday night. Homer Brandis of San Francisco, who won the 175-pound title in New York last year, which qualified him for the U. 8. Olympic boxing team, is the only one of the eight 1932 titlists able to defend his title. Brandis also is the only Californian in this year's tourney, which has been returned to its old Boston stand after being held in New York for the past two years. Almost every section of the country is represented in the fleld of 120 youths who will weigh in this afternoon. The battling is scheduled to start about 5 o'clock and end promptly at 12:30 am, in accordance with the new State law that places a time limit on amateur boxing. OST of the country’s other amateur boxing centers have sent full teams of eight, including those of 8150 | New York, Boston, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Newark, Buffalo, Cleveland and Other delegations, rang- ing from one to six, hail from Salt Lake City, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Washington, St. Paul, Philadelphia, Providence and Ponca City, Okla. Jimmy McCarron, Boston 135- pounder and another Olympic veteran, was rated as the outstanding per- former in his division, as was Sedg- wick Harvey of New York, national junior champion, in the 126-pound class. The New York team appeared to have the best balanced line-up in the three nights’ competition. Tonight's opening program was ex- |pected to include at least 50 trial | bouts, with 32 more scheduled for to- morrow night, and the 24 semi-final NORTHEAST BOYS MEET. Officers will be elected and other business transacted at the annual meet- ing of the Northeast Boys' Club tomor. row night at 8 o'clock at the club house, 1663 Kramer street northeast. W. R. Willoughby, president, will conduct the meeting. and championship bouts on Wednesday. | i fi | , DOWN TowN DISTRICT OF A LARGE CITY AFTER DRIVING THROULGH BY FRANK N the championship tournaments of | { Federal employes, sponsored by the | | Federal News, the number of en- tries has been reduced by elimina- | tion in the advanced class to three and in the intermediate class to six. In the second round, advanced class, Byler and Bettinger had a most in- teresting session, requiring three games | for completion, the score being 2 to 1 in favor of Byler. Bettinger had an opportunity for a draw two moves be- fore he resigned, but played for a win, and lost. A draw would have pro- moted both to the third round, and would have been as good as & win, as the game score does not count in the final results. In the second round, intermediate | class, Ferguson won from Waight, 2 to 0, | and Hopkins from Norris, 2 to 0. The third round, advanced class, brought together Tate and Knapp, and Byler and Mundelle. Tate and Knapp drew all three games of their match, and both are promoted to the fourth round. Byler won one game from Mundelle, drew a second game, and needs only a draw to eliminate him. A the fourth round. In the third round, intermediate class, Hopkins won one game from Aronson by default, Burch won one from Roberts, both matches being un- finished.

Walter Penn Shipley, who played in one of the United States vs. Great Britain cable matches, says in the Philadelphia Inquirer that “there ap- pears to be about five players in the country, all having strong claims for a place on the team; so that, no matter ‘how the tournament results, America is certain to be represented by five of the leading players of this country.” 'AROLD MORTON, the New Eng- land champion, is in the lead in the Massachusetts State cham- pionship, started February 22, with Donald Mugridge of Harvard second.

So also 14 | skin ALBOTT DENMEAD, law en-, forcement officer of the United | States Bureau of Fisheries, in a radio address for this column said there is much difference of opin- ion on whether fish caught on hook | and line and returned to the water | will survive. He said the answer is on the theory that few fish so captured and returned to the water live. The theory that a majority of the fish hooked and returned to the water die cannot be supported by evidence, he said, and added that while it is true | | tually succumb, it is generally because of improper handling. “Of course, a brook trout that is caught on a small barbed hook baited | with a worm, and the hook has pene- E is the trout that is not deeply hooked but is lifted out of the water and roughly handled with dry hands and thrown back into the stream,” Denmead told his listeners. HE destruction of small fish hooked in a large percentage of cases is not necessary, and can and should be prevented, said Denmead, continu- | ing: “If one fishes for trout with bait, | which he has a perfect right to do without criticism from his more scien- | tific brother, the fly fisherman, he can | easily prevent destruction of many un- dersized trout by the use of large | hook and a large bait. By such means | many a small trout is lifted entirely out | of the water without hooking at all and dropped back unharmed. Incidentally the larger bait is more attractive to the bigger fish and produces better results. “Naturally, the fish commissioner who receives reports of dozens of small dead trout lining the banks at the end of the first day of the open season is dis- tressed, and attempts by law to remedy the evil. Ome State, Maryland, has tried to meet this conditon by provid- ing a daily limit of 10 trout, all fish taken to be counted, but all under 7 inches must be returned to the water. Other States, not having any size limit, count all fish captured in the daily limit. These two methods do not en- tirely meet the situation. In the first instance, the angler may take only three trout over the 7-inch limit, and the other seven, if improperly handled and returned to the water, will die. In the second, he may throw back the little ones for varfous reasons, which will die if improperly handled. The answer is, educate the fishing public to arti- ficial fly fishing and the use of larger hooks and larger baits, and to carefully handle small fish when returning them to the water. A program of education on how to handle and release properly an undersized fish, whether it be a trout, black bass, or one of the many denizens of salt water, would certainly be a8 better method of conserving the species and improve our fishing.” In concluding Denmead said: “I won- der how many know how to remove a fish hook that has been accidentally sunk into some part of the human an- atomy over the barb? The proper method is to turn the hook until the point is toward the surface, then force the hook out through the flesh and it first, then take your pliers and clip off the point of the hook with the barb. It is then an easy matter to remove the barbless shaft by the way it entered without tearing the flesh. This method is less painful and the wound heals more quickly. Every angler should carTy & pair of pliers that will cut wire.” LL anglers have been disappointed this week, whether théy have been whipping the trout streams or fish- ing for the white perch in the Potomac s 00-2 Malcolm... 93-1 McW'liams 89 78 99-9 les. 81 7 81 101-20 Crawic )8-66 ‘WATKINS LUMBER. 61 106-42 B.Osi . -4 S R . 70 9043 cker.... 71 96-32 UNITED MOTOR. 39 100-22 Petrello.
