Crowley. the University of Virginia

junior championships to be held by the
Amateur Athletic Union in Baltimore
today. Crowley has never won a Junior
A. A. A. U. event, but it was held that
he should not be allowed to compete as
such because he took first pace in the
120-yard high hurdles in the intercol!e-
giates last spring. The ruling is a rath-
er peculiar one. inasmuch as it has al
ways been thought that a man was a
junior until he had won one OF the events
in that class in the National Amateur
Athletic Union championships. The A.
A. U. is certainly not cosnizant OF rec
ords made in the intercollegiate associa-
ton. governing itself in every parricu-
lar. and 1t Is hard to see why a man
should be kept out of events because he
has previously accomplished something

Georgetown has some splendid new ma
terial for its foot ball team. It is ques-
tionable If the Blue and Gray has ever
had more capable-look.ng youngsters out
for an eleven than right now. There are
two ex-college men in the squad, and
the influx of prep school graduates is
beyond anything that was expected.
Gormley. who played tackle for Cath
ole University and who was one OF
the few really capable men that school
had, is out for a line position. and the
chances are will make good. Gormley
played at villanova before entering Cath
oic University, having had considerable
experience at that institution. He weighs
something over 200 pounds and is ex-
tremely active for man Of his size and

WHY THE BRAVES
ARE NOW LEADING

George Sfallings of the Braves
advances ten reasons why his
club leads the National League.
They are;
1 never play two games the
same.
A winning pitcher needs regu-
lar work.
Don't rush n young player. Give
him the time to master the big
League methods.
Confidence comes first. 1 tell my
players they're the best team In
the league.
Walter Harnnvilie is the great-
est player to enter base ball
since Ty Cobb arrived.
We're trying to win every
game, never thinking about the
pcnnant. The finish L. too far
away.

and run over the sacrifice. MIX

Doyle met all the attacks In clever de-
fensive style, and his lobbing Offset the
drives of his opponent until toward the
close, when he appeared to weaken

The fourth and deciding set was almost
repetition Of the third. with the excep-
ton that Moore had the shade on Doyle
in ability, the hard smashes of the
former being too difficult for the latter
to get back inside the boundary lines.
Time after time Doyle found himself
in positions where he could have re-
turned the ball In safe territory. but
he appeared overanxious and lost all
idea Of placement. Had he resorted more
to lobbing against Moores speed diff
