Maryland Agrfculture College ems
tered Its quint in collegiate circles last
week, and, while its Inauguration was
not Of the Kind that would ct the,
world on IRE. they showed that with .
little practice and experience u vfU
take mighty good club 70 beat them
BY any decisive score. Catholic Uni-l
lversity was their opponents. and Il car
readily be seen that the boys from
Maryland were up against = hard
game the wearers Of the Red and Black
displayed great Improvement in their
pass work. and some of the boys seem
to have found their eye for the basket
George Warrington. while It has not
played any games at homo and did
NOT make such = nne showing on the
Southern trip. 1t must be taken Into
consideration that 1T was Handicapped
by not having along all Of the regu-
lars In all Of the games that were
played. .ss
Georgetown, In the one game It
played since the holidays. showed that
II 10 slowly rounding into shape. and.
with the coming Of the big games in
q short time, should be right when
they are played. The hame with ST.
Johns. Of Annapoiis. I'VE. while an in
-ferior quiTt. gave the boys from the
Hilltop Q tough game and brought
out some Of the defects Of the quint.
Dearstype. who Is holding down a for
ward position on the MARYLAND Asgies
quint. has a bright future before him.
A good eye for the basket good head
which he uses. and being fast this lad
should cut quite a wide swath In local
collegiate basketball circle. In the one
game which he played he demonstrated
that he understood the basket-tossing
game and scored all of the points with
the exception of one that the Assies were
credited with
Coach Rice, Of the Catholic University
quint and Reefree Hughes spoke highly
of this boy and predicted q great year on
the court for the youngster. NJ A. e.
viii need such players as Dearstyne. and
before the season Is over he will prove his
worth to the fans Of the basket-tossins |
game.
Many people who witnessed the local |
7. N. c. A. regulars hook up with the |
West Branch team. Of Baltimore, COM |
mented on the work Of Hoppe. Hoppe Is |
supposed to be a guard and at the start |
Of the aforementioned contest he was |
shifted to q forward position, something |
which he rarely ever plays He made |
good without a doubt and before the |
game was over he was shifted tc q guard |
position In order to let one Of the for /
wards get in the game.
II Ii like sending in Walter johnson to |
pitch when Coach Beckett picks Hoppe to |
start the game. or sends him In when the /
score is getting close. the players seem
to feel the effect of the change and show |
more speed in their playing This il |
rather q broad statement. and many |
people may get the idea that the Regulars !
are a one-man team, but such Ii not the |
case. the boys play good basket-bau but
have more confidence in themselves with 4
the main cog. Hoppe, around whom the
qutnt Is built. in the game and show /
clearly the effect that the big boy creates
when he gets in the game. Taking every
thing into consideration Hoppe Is one Of |
the best, II not the best, all around player |
that the District can boast Of today.
A good game is on tap for next week
when the Georgetown quint hooks up in
battle with the Loyola five. The Balti-
more boys have taken the scalp Of the \
George Washington FIVE. but suffered a
hard blow when the Galaudet tribe took
a fan out OF Them, winning the game by
one point.
Georgetown is seeking revenge this
season for the fact that the Baltimore
boys defeated them last season when
no one least thought that they had q
chance to turn the trick. When the two
teams take the floor Wednesday night q
good battle can be expected and will be
