AMATEUR PITCHERS ARE
SHOWING IMPROVED FORM
Much Better Work Is Being Done Now

tice which makes II possible for them

hard-fought tennis tournament
The fine pitching of Hoffecker. the
Maryland Agricultural College player. is
practically keeping the Towson Country
Club up i'm the race in the fastest amateur
league in Baltimore 1t has been tied
with the Maryland Athletic Club for about
two weeks for first place, and 1t is mann
tanning the position simply by reason or
Hoffecker'S superb work. There is hard
ly game in which his team gets more
than two or three runs behind him. but II
manages to win because he seldom allows
the opposing nine to score more than
once. In the last three games he has
pitched the AggieS' hurler has allowed a
sum total of six hits, two in one game,
three in another and one in the other.
A schedule of events that they think
would be worth while adopting for uni
form Olympic program has been submit
ted by the United States Olympic COM
mittee to the international committee.
The list, of course. is subject to change,
but the chances are that 1t will be adopt
ed with only minor shifts because the ma
jority of competitions are those already
in use and now recognized as the stand
ard track and field events.
Here is the list suggested by the COM
mittee representing this country
Track-100. 200 400 500, l..00, 5000,
5000 15OO0 meter runs; 40 and 40 meter
hurdle races; cross-country races; 2,lOo-
meter steeplechase, with fixed brush hur-
dies and at least one water jump, cross
country run of at least 10000 meters:
marathon run of approximately twenty
five miles. with cross-cOuntry race course
charted and blue-prints furnished at least
eighteen months before the race.
Field-Running and standing broad
jumps; running and standing high jumps;
running hop. step and jump: pole vault. for
height: javelin and discus throw, best
hand only: shotput best hand only; ham
mer throw and 56-pound weight throw.
Eidsness. the Agriculture twirler in the
Departmental League is the only pitcher
who has a victory over the Interior club
to his credit. Only two defeats have been
given the Interior bunch this season, and
both have been the result of excellent
pitching on the part of Eidsness- Both
victories have been his, and it is very
likely that when the two clubs meet
again he will be the man to start for the
Aggies. Victories on each occasion he
has started against the Interior nine
would indicate that it would be very good
policy to let him try his luck again.
While the Interior club Is still leading
the league by fair margin, Bob Murphy
insists that his team has an excellent
chance to win out. He seems confident
that his Agricultural bunch will be able
to win again on the occasion Of the next
meeting

Moreover, the jinx carrier has stiffened
the whole White Sox intield. The most
notable improvement has been in the
work of Harry Lord. When the SoX got

John l. Taylor, the team owner of the
Red Sox- had pulled a boot. Last year
Lord fell OF. He was sent to the out

Lord is at his worst in fielding hunts.
With first sacker of any less skill than
Hal he has to be careful of his throws

them to the bag ahead of the runner.

With his return to form on third Lord

not worrying. While he has not reached
the 800 class, he is hitting around the
