FRESHMAN STAR
BREAKS HIS NOSE
King, Georgetown Guard, In.
jured Saturday Night.

Basketball enthusiasts at Georgetown
were depressed yesterday when it was
reported that Charles King, captain of
the freshman five, was laid up with a
broken nose. When the varsity played
New York University last week King
performed at guard during the second
half. He remembered being hit on the
nose during the first mix-up. but after
blowing the injured member a couple of
times thought nothing more of it. After
the game he was taken to the hospital,
where fractured nose was ascertained.
The freshman team at present is in
quite a quandary as to obtaining games.
Manager Bone has corresponded with
most of the city's quintets. but is un-
able to arrange many contests. The
freshmen are willing TO play teams of
any class, and claim that in the majority
Of cases they will not be at the small
end of the score Capt King says he
will be able to play within ten days by
using nose guard for protection to his
injury. 1t is to be hoped that aspiring
teams will meet Kings team within the
near future.

BASKETBALL

Hurry up, Glass "B" League, and get
started The season will be over before
the teams get to playing. The public
wants to see the second teams in action
before the bell rings.
The Kendall Athletic Club will in all
probability play the Eastern High School
in their gymnasium. January Is. This
game should prove hummer. as both
teams are of the same caliber.
Fitzhugh. who started the season with
the Eastern High School quint, will be
team. Fitzhugh is as good back as can
be found when he is in condition.
Charlie Allen, the former Y. NJ. c. A.
forward, has played only one game so
far this season. and that was an exhibi-
ton contest against the Regulars. He
showed that he has not forgotten how
to shoot baskets.
Carroll Institute is to play rs next
game against the Regulars. Of the Y.
NJ. c. A.. Tuesday, January II. This
game will in all probability decide the
championship, as the Carroll quint has
been defeated twice by the Regulars.
That Foundry quint will have to travel
some when they start, as the other
teams have good handicap on them.
AS soon as Manager WOodburn obtains
suitable place for the boys to play
they will tackle all of the strong quints
in the District.
Jack Hurley is considered one Of the
best backs in the District. Hoppe and
Walk. of the Regulars. have teamwork
down to perfection. but if Hurley and
Giavanponi had played together as long
as the Regulars guards they would be
the best pair in the District barring none.
The Yankees, of the Boys Depart
ment. will play the Urbanity quint Sat
urday night in the boys gymnasium.
The Urbanity Club is new one in the
field, and the outcome of the game IS
undecided. The Yankees have a strong
team this season.
What has become Of the Potomac Ath-
letic Clubs basketball quint? They
were in prominence all last season. Some
of the players were due to be on a better
team, but nothing has been heard from
the manager as to whether he is going
to reorganize the quint this year.
The Gallaudet College quint and the
Maryland Aggies will clash Wednesday
afternoon in the Gallaudet gymnasium.
Of these teams are going at midseason
form Gallaudet. after being defeated by
the Catholic University qufnt, will come
back stronger than ever.
The Ingram Memorial quint will make
the Y. NJ. c. A. Rovers go the limit
when they play them in the Ingram
gymnasium Saturday night. The In
gram boys were winded when they
played the Regulars last Saturday night.
as the gymnasium where they have been
practicing is much smaller than the Y.
NJ. c. A. gymnasium.
Capt Arras, Of the Gallaudet quint,
made one Of those Impossible shots Sat-
urday afternoon. He was standing in
the center Of the floor when he received
the ball from a pass, and as all Of the
players were covered and a man was
coming at him. he shot the ball with an
overland throw, and It sailed into the
basket without touching the rim.
