THE EVENING STAR, W! Stages HINGTON, MAY .1, 1933 Three Fan D. C George Washingion WAKE FOREST SEEN AS STRONGEST FOF Sandlot Carnival, Boys’ Band Contest and Glee Club Concert Listed. BY H. C. BYRD. EORGE WASHINGTON'S ball team plays three games this week, with Wake Forest as its oppo- nent on Wednesday and West Virginia Thursday and Friday. The games are to be staged at night, and be preceded by a base ball carnival, a boys’ band con- test, and a glee club concert. In all the games the extra doings | begip at 7 o'clock and base ball | at 8. Wake Forest seems to be the most formidable team George Washington will meet this season. ‘'he Baptists up | to the present have a clean slate, with apparently the strongest nine in their | section. Preceding the Wake Forest| game is to be held the base ball car- nival, to consist of throwing, batting and base-running contests for all ama- teur players in the District. West Virginia always has a fairly good ball team, and probably is better than George Washington, unless the latter is stronger than in its opening | contest with Delaware. A band contest for all the boys' bands in the District is to be staged immediately before the first West Virginia game, and the| George Washington Glee Club will give the concert in connection with the sec- ond contest Friday night. ACK ESPEY, publicity man extraor- J dinary for George Washington, says | that “we want to make it clear that George Washington is not holding | these affairs, but that they are under the auspices of the civic authorities, | and we are simply taking part to help | out to the best of our ability. All money received at the gate goes to the civic fund and George Washington does not share in it at all.” Maryland's track team, both fresh- man and varsity, is at Charlottesville this afternoon for dual meets with Virginia. The old Liners expect to do fairly well in the running events, but feel that Virginia has entirely too much margin for them in the field competi- tions. Neither Maryland nor Georgetown was able to come through at Penn Sat- | urday. All relay teams were whipped and Widmyer, Maryland sprinter who | was considered to have about an even chance for victory, finished second by | not more than an eyelash. As a matter | of fact, the event was so close that at first Widmyer was anncunced as win- | ner. ENNSYLVANIA'S mile relay team wen the most coveted honor of the carnival when it finished first in the mile race. The time Was excep- tionally fast, a_fraction over 3 minutes 17 seconds. The event was interest- ing from two viewpoints for local peo- | le, the first in that Jake Edwards, former Tech High School man, was a member of the four, and second, that Jones, who entered Penn from Brook- | Iyn, is said to have done his quarter inl 47.2 seconds, which probably is thei fastest time ever made by a college re- lay runner on Franklin Field. Navy wound up its Spring foot ball Saturday with a regular game. The varsity showed remarkable improve- ment, according to report, and the squad as a whole seems to be the best for next yeer that Navy has had in a long time. Coach Rip Miller ex- pressed himself as well pleased over the | results attained since the workouts be- gan early in March, 'OPKINS and Maryland, now gen- erally regarded as the two strong- est lacrosse teams in the East, won again Saturday. Hopkins whipped Army at West Point by 6 to 2. and Mnryllngi swamped Washington College. How- ever, Maryland’s showing probably was | not quite as good as Hopkins' in one respect, in that it seemed unable to | make its shots count for the first three quarters of the game. It got plenty of opportunities but could not drive the ball in the net. However, on a change of goal keepers by Washington Col- lege in the fourth quarter the old Liners marked up goal after goal. A tennis and golf match are sched- uled this afternoon and tomorrow at Maryland and Catholic ~University. North Carolina engages in tennis com- petition with the former and William and Mary in golf with the latter. rgetown's ball team plays two gsg(:; e week, Mount St. Mary's at Emmittsburg Friday and Navy at An- napolis Saturday. The Navy game Georgetown regards as the most im- portant on its list. e Georgetown golf team takes an- dm trip ug)s week, with three matches at New Haven. Friday it meets Yale and Williams and Saturday Brown. M day Saturday. Its own teams engage in four contests, tennis with Hopkins, track with Hopkins, lacrosse with Rutgers and base ball with Duke. Beside these events the annual interscholastic _track and field meet takes place. The Old Liners work hard every Spring to make their field day the biggest thing they do in the way of Spring sports, and usually succeed. Gallaudet's track and fleld aspirants will make their bow in competition next Saturday. when Randolph-Macon is en- countered on Hotchkiss Field. Coach Teddy Hughes has been prepping the Blues steadily ever since the interclass trackfest before Easter except for the last week or so, when the boys have been in camp on the Chesapeake Bay enjoying their Spring vacation. The Kendall Greeners are in good shape, but no outstanding performers are in the squad, ARYLAND has its big Spring field —_—— SOUTHWEST IS HOME . OF BASKET LEADERS Oklahoma Boasts of Both A. A. U.

ANSAS CITY (#).—The Southwest is the homeland of independent amateur basket ball, as witness: Oklahoma is the home State of both the men’s and women’s national cham- pion teams—the Tulsa Diamond Oilers and the Cardinals of Oklahoma Presby- terian College for Women at Durant. ‘Wichita is the home town of the. third place teams in both the men's and women’s national tournaments—the de- throned thrice-champion Wichita Henrys and the Wichita Thursten girls.

The dates of these Sportsman’s Park Inaugurate 1933’s Richest Season in America. HICAGO, May 1 (#)—The bar- rier snaps at Exhibition Park at Aurora and at Sportsmans Park, Chicago, today, inau- gurating a six months’ racing season in Ilinois that will be the richest of- | fered in America. | . Moving through meetings at Aurora, Sportsmans Park, Washington Park, | Arlington, Hawthorne and Lincoln Flelds and then back again to Sports- mans and Aurora, the thoroughbreds | will be racing in the Chicago metropol- itan district daily, except Sunday, until the end of Octoher. There will be inaugural handicap events at both tracks, with each handi- cap attracting & band of ficet perform- €rs over the six-furlong route. For the first time in the Chicago racing district Exposition Park, located 35 miles west, was offering a free gate. Reserved seats in the grandstand, how- ever, will cost 50 cents, with $1 admit- tance to the club house. The general admission to Sportsmans Park, which is located on the edge of Chicago, will be $1. Sportsman Park is a half-miler. After the lid has been pried off with |the 18-day meetings at Sportsmans Park and Exposition Park. the thor- oughbreds will move to Washington Park May 22 for the opening of the major racing season. Washington Park will see the first rich stake event of the year with the running of the $25.- 000 added American Derby June 3.

Pitt, who should win every tournament around | Washington, but doesn't, is getting back | on the game which placed him at the top of all District golfers in 1931. A few days ago he was around his home course in 70 strokes, with a 6 on a par_4 hole and yesterday he showed D. C. Gruver and Dr. T. D. Webb just what makes a first-class golfer click. ;It happened at the Washington Golf and Country Club, where Harry Pitt, after scattering a flock of shots all {over the fairways on the first nine holes, proceeded to collect his game and all its component parts in one com- pact mass, and murdered that second nine with a 32, three better than par. Had Harry played the sixth hole wel he might have broken 70 for the Wash- ington course, but at that tough par 4 affair he overshot the green and picked up his ball. But over the second nine he put on an exhibition of shot-making that hhun'z been eclipsed in many a month. 'HE high spot of Pitt's 32 was a high- flying brassie shot on the fifteenth hole that wound up exactly two feet from the cup and gave him & push-over putt for the eagle. Although another member of the match a bird 4, it wasn't . Harry stuck a mashie shot within 10 inches of the pin at the short eleventh to secure a deuce and he played the bal- ance of the way in par. Harry is working back on his m‘n , no doubt of that. Last year he n't do so well. He won the Baltimore Country Club tournament, but he did nothing much in the tournaments around Washington. He qualified well up in this section in the tests for the amateur champlonship held at Chevy Chase. but in the championship itself he failed to make the grade. But now- adays he is serving notice that the Pea- cocks, Stevinsons, Nees, Lunns and all the other amateur irants around | Washington had better s up their games. it will take something better than ordi- nary golf to stop him. He will enter the Manor Club tournament the single outstanding favorite to win. Washington saw s couple of other fine rounds of golf yesterday. Young COUPLE of Arthur Huttick and Dewey Kimrey—will be sandwiched this week between the two-bout series between Tommy Paul and Pete Sarron, who have been matched for a return scrap a week from tomorrow. Little is known of Huttick and less of Kimrey, except local fans saw Huttick whip Les Kennedy and heard of Kim- rey’s 10-round draw with the same ringster. On the basis of this Huttick would rule a favorite. Kimrey, however, will have consider- able more edge in weight and height over Huttick than he (Kimrey) had over Kennedy, and this may make a difference. Huttick will enter the tipping the scales at only about 177, while Kimrey wil! strain the Portner’s Arena be: at 200 or better. ‘The pi figure to ca the show if the main event (for no dis- tance will be announced, because it only will be changed anyway) .
