They are Mount Rainier and Be- thesda-Chevy Chase of Maryland and George Washington and Washington- Lee of Virginia. A trophy emblematic of the metropolitan distrist public school championship will be pre- sented the winner. The two Maryland and the two Vir- ginia girl teams have been paired. Tourney Schedule Is Given. MOUNT RAINIER and Bethesda- Chevy Chase will clash Tuesday afternoon at 3:30, or as soon after that time as the teams can get to| Tech. In the second game of the afternoon Mount Rainier's unbeaten boys will stack up against Washington- Lee, champion of Northern Virginia.

Sherwood won the recent sports- manship tournament at Rockville, but hardly can be expected to get past FEastern in the metropolitan. One thing about it is certain, though. You ean believe Dick Lansdale, Sherwood captain, when he tells you: “We'l try like the dickens.” Eastern’s is a feared name in schoolboy basket ball but little Sherwood appears to be plumb unawed. All other games in the first round | seem sure to be rousing contests, with Bethesda-Chevy Chase meeting St. John's College, Catholic school cham- pion of Washington; Mount Rainier and Washington-Lee tangling and George Washington facing Western. The whole busines will be a toss-up after the Eastern-Sherwood game. An amplifying system will be used, and music and other features are being arranged to make the tourna- ment probably the best basket ball | card, generally considered, of the year.

Tourney Favorite. WITCHING from its cramped quarters to the more spacious Catholic University gymnasium, St. John's basket ball team to- day polished its play for the last time before leaving for the South Atlantic scholastic tournament at Lexington, Va., tomorrow at noon. The Cadets, hampered considerably by their own small court, worked out yesterday and today on the Brookland court under the direction of Coaches Horse Holbrook and Gene Agusterfer, both of whom feel the drills on a larger floor will benefit the team. St. John's, which received somewhat of a jolt from the outset in drawing the No. 1 seeded team, John Marshall of Richmond, nevertheless is geared for an upset. The Johnnies meet the defending champions Thursday night | at 9 o'clock. In the meantime, the Cadet student body planned an impressive demon- stration when the team departs. The entire school and St. John's Band will assemble in front of the school, on Vermont avenue, and give & rousing send-off to the club. Players Are Selected. ] ADDITION to the coaches, Jack Reges, John Swagart, Francis Bat- tiste, Joe Gallagher, Jim Giebel, George Batchelder, John Burch and George Rehkopf have been named as players who will make the trip. Brother Edward will accompany the party. Western, which with St. John's, will hurry back from Washington and Lee University in order to compete in The Evening Star’s metropolitan tourney next week, will carry Gerald Burns, George De Witt, Hop Lomax, Hugo Schulze, Paul Heil, Tom Saylor, Max Needle and Tom Halloran as players, and, of course, Coach Cliff Moore and Manager Bill Fieker. The Red Raiders, who play Monroe | A. and M. Prep of Monroe, Ga., Thurs- day night at 10 o’'clock, will not leave {on the 200-mile journey until Thurs- | day morning. Western has been seeded in the No. 3 spot behind John Marshall and Massanutten Military Academy. Western celebrated the winning of its first interhigh basket ball cham- pionship yesterday at an assembly in the school auditorium. Among the | speakers were Dr. Harvey L. Smith, as- | sistant superintendent of schools; Birch E. Bayh, director of public school athletics; Coach Moore, Burns, Bryan Morse, former Western coach, and Comdr. John Whelchel, former Western star who later performed for Navy. —_— DE LISIO’S PLAY TELLS Special Dispatch to The Star. ANNAPOLIS, March 9.—A big factor in the fine late season rally which carried St. John’s to second place in the basket ball race of the Maryland Intercollegiate Association, was the improved offensive work of | Len De Lisio, former student of Cen- tral High. De Lisio, always a strong defensive guard, around midseason developed surprising ability as a long-range shot, and seldom failed to cage several baskets each game, in many being high scorer. St. John's, which won its last seven games after losing the first three, will have all of its first-team players back next year. They are, besides De Lisio, Johnny Lambros and Bill Ross, forwards; Jimmy Rowe, center, and Nelson Shawn, guard. Blind Wrestler Look.s Ahead Allman, 115-Pounder on Penn Team, Sees Tourney This Year Leading to 1938 Title. By the Associated Press. HILADELPHIA, March 9.— Robert George Allman, the first blind wrestler to be- come @ member of the University of Pennsylvania team, Jooked forward eagerly today to the Eastern intercollegiate champion- ships at Bethlehem, Pa., Priday and Saturday. “T expect to be in the finals of my division,” said the 18-year-old youth whose struggle to overcome his handicap is a story of persever- ance and eagerness to learn. “I don’t expect to win this year, but I'm going to diet and stay in the same class for next year. Then, watch me!” Allman, s 115-pounder, who has 3 won four matches and lost three decisions this season, said he learned wrestling because it was the only sport open to him. “On the mat I am on even terms with my opponents,” he explained. “I stand braced until I feel my opponent, then I try to throw him with a crotch hold and lsnd on top.” “My favorite hold,” Allman con- tinued, “is a half-Nelson and far wrist. I'm working to perfect a figure-four scissors now.” Austin Bishop, Penn’s coach, said Allman was one of the strongest men in his weight class. Allman is studying to become & lawyer. He has been blind since the age of four, BARKS 4o DOGDOM BY R. R. TAYNTON. HE purchaser of a puppy for a | | pet is often confused when he | sees three or four charming | puppies in a litter. When all | look equally attractive, and the price is about the same for each, one is hard put to choose. Yet it is not a difficult matter. If any one of the puppies will suit physically, one may forget about color, markinks, etc., and concentrate on other, and perhaps, more important things. Puppies begin to develop and man- ifest distinct personalities at two ‘weeks, or even less. By the time they are old enough to sell, they have de- cided individualities, and the prospec- tive pup purchaser should take enough time to watch the puppies play until their mental traits reveal themselves and he can pick the pup that best suits him. ‘This is not to say that environment ‘and training will not modify those traits, but they will not be entirely | changed. The brightest, most intelligent puppy in a litter at 6 weeks Tt probably will be the brightest and most intelligent dog at a year. However, if one of his litter broth- ers was carried off as a pet at 6 weeks, was played with and talked to and made a real companion, that lit- ter brother, at a year may have learned more from human association than the bright pup that stayed in the kennel. But think what a dog the bright pup would be with equal | opportunities.” N CHOOSING a dog, the purchaser should try to find a puppy that | will fit in with his own temperament. If he likes to keep on the go all the | time, if sitting still is a hardship, he may be bored with a dog that is all sweetness and light. There are dogs that are never at rest except when they sleep, and they never sleep when they can do anything else. Often in the same lit- ter. there are puppies that seemingly fear nothing and others that think wisdom is the better part of valor. In a group of three pupples, just | eight weeks old, the middle-sized one has been climbing out of the deep box since she was five weeks old after | every meal. At regular intervals she feels the need of some rough play with a big dog, and teases any dog in | the house into a game. Weighing less than four pounds herself, she has no compunctions about swinging on the tail of a 60-pound collie, or worrying a mature terrier Into a little rough and tumble sport. Curiously enough, none of the large dogs ever show the slightest disposi- tion to hurt her, no matter how she teases, and sooner or later, all accede to her demands for a game. IP CAUGHT in mischief and scolded, she starts to scamper back to her box in the kitchen, but stops midway and looks back to see if she is being followed. If not, she goes right back to her play. If she is followed, she scrambles into the box until the coast is clear. Varied Sports College Basket Ball. Dartmouth, 52; Cornell, 49. Notre Dame, 44; Minnesota, 18. Union, 34; Centenary, 31.

CASCARELLA picked up the thread | of his aria and De Shong stepped into the picture again. “Hey, dago,” | he yelled to Cascarella, “suppose the Cards don’t win? You won't have to worry about Medwick. Maybe the Giants'll play us in the series.” “Then we hitters ought to start worrying,” said Chapman. “Hubbell’s absolutely the best. I mean, he’s the best now.” De Shong nodded. “That’s what I think, too. In fact, I think Hubbell’s the best pitcher I ever saw, although I saw Grove when he really was fast. Gosh, the way Carl pitched to those Yanks, the only guy he made mistakes on was Jake Powell. He kept throw- | ing fast balls up near his eyes and | that darn Powell just wore out the | ball. They were real hits, no taking that away from him.” “Hey, canary | legs,” chimed in Chapman. “What | about that Earnshaw when he was right? If ever there was a tough guy for a right-handed hitter old George was him.” (Canary legs is what the boys call De Shong.) Somebody not in uniform ‘wondered aloud whether New- som would be in town. Half a dozen players, as if on signal, yelled, “He’ll be here, dont worry. You know Breezy.” Sure enough, shortly after they got back to the hotel, there was Newsom. You thought that Buck either is an open book to them or the Nationals rate highly as prognosticators. On the latter count you may know more | by October, when world series time‘ rolls around. So the question is what to pitch to Medwick? E. B. Why Pay BROTHER'S PUNCH MADE HIM CHAMP Joe Matisi, Rated East’s Top Amateur, Aroused When Hit by Pitt Gridder. BY the Associated Press.

HE weeding-out process in ‘Washington’s caulifiower patch today revealed a budding crop of potential drawing cards for outstanding shows here this Summer, with Hobo Williams, the most recent addition to the increasing flock, head- ed for & bout with Lou Brouillard, former world welterweight and mid- dleweight champion. With the finely chiseled Williams, who resembles something carved out of marble, neatly installed as another favorite here, local ringworms now anticipase probably the most success- ful season, fistically and financially, this bailiwick ever has enjoyed. Emerging from the steady stream of embryonic talent poured into the fistic test tube here recently are Williams, Lou Gevinson, Ray Ingram, Joey Straiges and Eddie Dunne, any of whom are capable of jamming the cramped Turner’s Arena. On the sur- face perhaps that is no great feat, but comparatively speaking, the up- ward swing in interest indicates a rosy future. Ivan Nedomatsky, Maryland's pol- ished welterweight, who, incidentally, definitely will be managed by Pete Reilly, who has piloted five fighters to world championships, will join pro- fessional ranks here in June. If the colorful collegian fulfills half the predictions made for him by ringwise veterans, he will be a welcome addition to the moneyed clan. Lewis Fights Here in June. OHN HENRY LEWIS, whose troubles were ironed out yesterday by the District Boxing Commission, will meet either Shorty Ahearn or Dave Clark on June 16. The world light-heavyweight champion, whose “run-out” on a fight here resulted in suspension by the National Boxing Association, pacified the local boxing body by agreeing to give Promoter Earl McDonald $585 off his end of the purse in that fight for promotion ex- penses incurred by McDonald in the scrap which never materialized.

Referee Denny Hughes and Dr. Bob Eller voted draw, however, and | that seemed a justifiable _ation to | the close and hectic eight-round argu- ment. Williams twice had Mader reeling, | in the first and fourth rounds, and never was troubled that way by Eddie.

His right con- tinually flailed Hobo's back and head {and an occasional potent left hook to Williams’ bobbing noggin earned him a draw.
