hibited fair form. good enough to class
him with the most capable of the college
heavens

Hoffecker and LOOMS are certain to DE
the mainstays OF the Maryland Aggies'
pitching staff during the coming season.
Four men are being carried by the farm
ers to do the hurting, but 1t Is 1airly
certain that on LOOMS and Honecker
will fall the brunt of the work.
There is one man on the Aegies' STAN,
though, who is fairly certain to develop
into a mighty good pitcher In year
or so. He is Hindman. Hindman has
done little pitching, having played the
outfield at Tome. Institute. but he Is a
big fellow with lot of speed and, IL
taught to throw a spit ball, should De
very effective.
The indoor swimming championships of
the South Atlantic. Amateur Athletic
Union are scheduled to take place in the
tank of the Baltimore Athletic Club April
10 and 10. None other than those who
are in good standing in the amateur
athletic union will be eligible to COM
pete.
Business High seems to be fortified with
about the best pitcher in the high
school. The Stenographers have a really
capable twirler for the first time in a
long while. The name of the youngster
of whom much is expected Is keliy.
Kelly did some pitching in the lnde-
pendence League last summer and. al,
though he did not make any WONDERFUL
some mighty good work in the high
school games. He will find opposed to
him in the scholastic series a lot or
youngsters who are not nearly as capa Die
as the men whom he worked against IN
the amateur league while representing the
Aloysius club. If Kelly works up to ex-
pected form, he will put Business in the
running for the high school champion
ship.

Former high school stars will have
much to do in the games in whlch the
local teams figure today Up at George
town there will appear on both teams men
who have made regulations in scholastic
circles. On the Blue and Gray nine there
is Davis. one OF the fastest infielders in
the city, who is covering third. On
Lafayette team there will be Holden and
Meyers. both of whom did some great
work for Western High. Out at Catholic
University, Hays Of the Brooklanders Is
a former high school player. as is Whit
ney the Penn State captain, who Will
probably pitch against the local outfit.
The Maryland Aggies have three men
who have been members of Washington
school teams: Morris, Huntemann and
LOOMS. The first mentioned came from
Tech, the second from Business and
Loomis from Western. On the Navy
team, which will be played by the Aggies,
is Adams, who used to play at Western
High and the Army and Navy Prep
School.
Quite an imposing array Of talent
has been turned out by the local high
schools. And yet it is often said that
the development given the boys in the
local schools is much inferior to that
secured by the lads who go to the north
ern prep institutions. II that really is the
case, what would the Washington boys
do il they had as capable instruction as
the northerners?
Eastern High did not show up well
enough yesterday in its practice contest
against the Maryland Aggies to indicate
that it will make much of showing in
the scholastic series. Although the score
would cause it to appear that the school
BOYS made a credttable showing, they
really did not appear to be a very good
ball team, nor did the Farmers show any
thing extraordinary.
