Cunningham has won the Columbian | Trophy the last four years, taking two cups permanently, and it was in this | race that he set his world indoor mile | record of 4:08.4 in 1934. MERRICKS GAIN PLACE City-Wide Court Play. Merrick Boys' Club unlimited bes- ket ball team will represent the | Southeast Community Center in the city-wide play-off series between Cen- ter champions as a result of its thrill- ing 35-32 victory over Clarke's Service Station for the Southeast title last night. Overcoming a 21-14 lead held by Clarke's at half time, the Merrick courtmen put on one of the greatest rallies seen in the Hine Junior High School gym this seasor to cop the championship. Katz, Crisaful and Mougello all found the basket for three field goals to lead the Merrick drive. e e— ce” in the third period—the biggest scoring quarter of the game—when they partially solved Bethesda-Chevy Chase's zone defense and kicked in with 11 points. Cleverly shaking hime self free under the suburbanites’ bas- ket three times, Reges dumped in as many snowbirds, while Giebel and Gallagher contributed one apiece. Both Defenses Tight. BUT Jjust as they had loosened, so did the suburbanites tighten their defense in the last quarter, when they held the Cadets to 3 points. The pri- vate school champions, however, countered with even a tighter defense last eight minutes, holding their opponents scoreless from the ficor and giving them only one point from the foul line. The clean play of the losers was one of the features of the evening's performances, only three personal fouls being called against them in the entire game. Indeed, it seemed to be characteristic of both suburbar losers, as only five personal fouis were called against Bethesda-Chevy Chase. Beth.C.C.

PHILLIPS, Jr. AITING for post time in the individual race of the re- cent Warrenton point-to- point meeting, I was trying | to imagine some type of weather that would inspire the hunting people of that country to postpone their annual cross-country hunter test It had been snowing all! morning | that day, and just before the race the sifting snow turned half to sleet, but never a word was mentioned about canceling the races, or even delaying them until another date. Of course, the professional tracks operate on this theory, too, but it is rather startling to find people who are out for the | sport of the thing voluntarily taking a beating. Surprising, that is, if you do not happen to know the War- renton viewpoint. The records show that the first point-to-point down there was n | in & soaking rain, and nobody knows how many horse shows, hunts and whatever have been held in anything | from avalanches of ice to heat that would fry an egg on the front door step. 1 have even been moved to speculate what the fox hunters (the serious ones, that is) would have done had their country been hit by floods | like those that swamped the Ohio Valley recently. Would they have tried hunting on the high, dry ridges, and maybe laid the race courses there when the time came? Not improbable. Middleburg. which has the hardy outlook on riding weather also, will be faced with a neat poser if this snow | does not disappear by Saturcay. The point-to-point races down there really | will be fancy if run in a couple of | feet of snow, especially if the wind | | whips up & few handsome drifts. | ‘Nommg quite so much fun as gal- | loping at a fence that only sticks | | up a foot or two above the snowline, | and then suddenly floundering into a chest-deep drift that makes it quite clear the obstacle actually is any- | where from 4 feet up in height Splendid amusement for those who like it. LL weather reports aside, the War- | renton meeting was a great suc- Only one of 20 starters in the first race came to grief, and of the 10 that went in the pair event again | there was a single casualty—a horse | that ran away and got himself dis- qualified. Hubert Phipps’ agile mare, Miss Scotch, ran a handsome race to win the individual plate, and Horace Mof- fett, who won in 1935 with Phipps’ Strawback, made a great showing this time riding his own Nalatac This big son of Catalan was ma- neuvered into such a position that there was only one chance left to win | as they approached the finish, and | Moffett took it.

Dick Kirk- | patrick proved an unbeatable combi- | nation, although their invincibility | was established by a narrow margin, | and the first three teams completing the course had time averages extreme- ly close together, a testimonial to the | equality of riding skill and horse flesh | among the starters. Altogether, it was an exceedingly satisfactory day of sport, one that convinced this writer more than ever | | before that the point to point is the | real test of a hunting horse, superior | | even to hunter trials. In the latter a horse is asked to go only a mile and a half or two miles at a gallop, which even fat show horses can do with a bit of training. The greater distance, the unmapped course and all that make the point to point far more exciting for the rider, & more realistic trial of stamina and certainly about as much fun for the spectators. The Middlebu"g Hunt's recent switch from the American style hunter trial to the cross-country, unflagged race is an indication of the growing sentiment on behalf of these events, FENDER Bent? ‘Booy DeNT?..

Warrenton, for example, specified that any horse starting must have been hunted at least six times during the season by the owner. Middleburg outlaws horses that have been raced within re- cent years unless they have hunted many times during the last season. The Redland Hunt, which, so far as | I know, is the first Maryland pack to swing into the spirit of the new re- vival, intends to bar race horses that have run on the flat or over jumps within the last three years from its meet on April 3, and will also specify that horses must have been hunted half a dozen times by the owner. Conditions for this meet have not been published yet, but the above in- formation is direct from Thomas T Mott, M. F. H. of Redland and direc- | tor of the point-to-point meeting. Mott states that the course there will be sufficiently indicated b; flags to U strangers in making their way about the countryside, yet will not be 50 ironbound as to prevent & man from riding his own line if he wishes. War- renton also is contemplating work- ing some scheme to this effect next vear in order to encourage outsiders | to come down and join in the fun— pointto-point meetings | although all are staged primarily, of course, for the benefit and diversion of the people who hunt in the country. The Redland race distances will be between 5 and 6 miles. - J. C. C.

A was es] cially sweet, as their victims were none other than the defending champions, the George Washington University freshmen, whose 1935-6 combination was the one to stop the same group of players who won last night. The score was 48-41. The Sleuths, inci- dentally, knocked off the current edi- tion of the Rinaldi Tailors, 41-21, out- classing them in every department. Chick Hollidge, an erstwhile mem- ber of the G. W. frosh before class room deficiencies forced him out of the line-up, played a leading role in his former mates’ defeat. He scored 12 points, one more than Bobby Lucas. Meyer Aaronson of the Colonial year- lings, however, was high-point scorer for the night, with nine field goals and a free toss for 19 points. Rinaldi started dut well enough against Investigation, but after over- coming leads of 4-0 and 8-2, the Sleuths were not to be denied. The winners' scoring was well divided among Forrest Burgess, Herbie and Jimmy Thompeon and Carl Mac- Cartee, Burgess being on top with eight points.
