The Trinity College basket ball team of
! North Carolina is here for two games
! Tonight the Tarheels will meet the
| Georgetown five and tomorrow they will
i play the Catholic University quint.
/ Both contests should result in victories
for the local teams. To Judge by the re-
| suit of the contest in which the Trinity
| men figured against the University of
Virginia last night, it should not be able
/ TO accomplish any great deal against
either Georgetown of Catholic Univer
| sty. The showing it made against Vir-
ginia was not what it should have been
by any means, the Carolina men not APP
| pearing to be as capable in any depart
| ment as the Charlottesville players.
Georgetown should win tonight. as has
been said The Blue and Gray is pretty
| sure to get away with the contest by a
| fair margin, at least, and 1t may be that
! It will win by big score. There is a
possibility. though, that very creditable
contest will be the result of the meeting.
1t will be remembered that the Virginia
Military Institute came here, after taking
, decided drubb;ng at the hands of st.
johns. and put up very spirited game,
one that was exceptionally pleasing to the
onlookers. There is the chance that the
same kind of contest will be played this
evening.
1t was stated by one who saw the game
in Charlottesville last night that the
| Trinity team played fine passing game,
but failed to take advantage of its
chances to throw goals. If it should be
able to get the ball into the basket to-
night. it might show a great reversal
of form.
Catholic University should win from the
Trinity team also. The Brooklanders
have shown form good enough to war
rant prediction that they will win from
any aggregation that is outclassed by
Virginia.
a game will be played tomorrow be-
tween the University of Virginia and
Washington and Lee that will hold lot
ball. The Virginia men are scheduled
| to meet the Lexington five. while neither
Georgetown nor the Catholic University
| is. If Washington and Lee wins from the
| Charlottesville men. there is little doubt
| that ii Will lay a claim to the champion
| Ship even If Virginia is defeated by the
/ local universities. Then again If Vir-
ginia should happen to get away with the
( Z. u. and q. L. CUNTS and lose to Wash
! ingtOn and Lee, it would surely have
better claim to the title than would any
other school in the section. barring, of
course, the Navy, which undoubtedly has
! more capable combination than any
other.
The Nautilus Club of the Y. NJ. c. A., is
scheduled to go to Annapolis tomorrow to
meet the Naval Academy swimmers. The
Y. NJ. c. A. men figure there is no way in
which they can lose to the Midshipmen.
Niles Hansen, in speaking of the meet,
had the following to say: Il hardly see
how we can lose to the Naval Academy.
We have fast bunch of men in the
daShes and some very clever performers
in the other events l think We will win
the meet by fair margin, and If any
thing should happen to the contrary, /,
Tor one, shall be greatly surprised.
The Y. N. C.. A. regulars got away with
the Epiphany quint last night by a wide
margin. The association men had little
trouble winning from the church five.
The work of Gheen was the best for the
church team and that Of Walk was the
most creditable for the Y. NJ. c. A., al
though there was not great measure of
individual play in the association five.
The George Washington University
quint has Cancelled its game with the
Maryland Aggies for tomorrow. The
Farmers are making an attempt to get
Gallaudet to go to College Park for a re-
turn contest The Aggies met Gallaudet
at Kendall Green some time ago and were
defeated.
The polo team from Atlantic City. be-
coming more accustomed to the large
floor. defeated the Washington five last
night at TIE Arcade. The work of the
visitors was excellent, being much better
than any other team that has appeared
here this year has shown.
While the Atlantic City bunch won last
night, its work was not much superior
to that of the local men. Eddie Whiting.
especially. played a brilliant game. His
work was, if anything, better than that
of Walls. who was the mainstay of the
Jersey five. The final score of the game
was to !, and that really does not
Shn ct H.
| ed. The Washington five shot another
goal, but it was not allowed.
| 1t is reported that the Washington
Athletic Association will get back into
. competition during the coming meets 1t
was thought that it would be out of the
! running this year almost i'll the indoor
meets as several of it's best men had
| entered Georgetown. 1t is learned,
| though, that two or three of the men are
ready to return to the club ranks.
If the w. A. A. gets it's men together
| IL will have one of the fastest relays in
| the south With Rawlings and Mahoney
| as nucleus around which to build a
| four. team to beat any other in this
section should be developed The Ire
| mont men had one Of the fastest combi-
| nations on the local tracks last season.
| and with the added experience it should
be even more capable.
| Everything is in readiness for the ten
| mile run to be gwen Dy lne memorial
| Athletic Club tomorrow The race will
| be run over the following course: East. on
| Nj street to 14th street; north on 14th
| street to l. street; east on l. street to
