| Many teams from this section will
take part in the University Of Penn
sylvania relay games at Philadelphia
tomorrow. Not only will the colleges
| be represented, but the majority of the
most prominent prep and high schools
are to send quartets. The University
I of Virginia, Catholic University, George
Washington. Maryland Agricultural
College. St. Johns College. Johns Hop
kins, Baltimore Polytechnic Institute,
Tome Institute, Central High. Epis-
copal High. Technical High, Western
] High and ST. Adams are scheduled to
run.
| The University Of Virginia has one
of the fastest teams in its history.
The Orange and Blue did 3:31ss for the
mile indoors last winter. which is re-
markedly fast time. When it Is con-
sidered that Virginia did six and one
fifth seconds faster this year than last
| in the same race it will be realized
| that it is capable. or should be, OF run
ming the mile in much better time than
| usual.
Georgetown will have no team in the
Penn relays. George Washington IS
sending up quartet and so is Catnollc
|
high class and have little chance to
win. as their team is composed Of green
material. The Brooklanders will have
their colors worn by the fastest four
they have ever turned out in the whole
history of their track sports. Last
week they ran a practice race against
ST. Adams and won by a scant two or
| three yards in 3 minutes and 30 sec
onds, which time. if done at Penn,
ought to be good enough to land them
in first place.
Johns Hopkins is not likely to prove
fast enough to win in it's class at
Penn, though it's runners should show
better outdoors than they did during
team being big men. The Maryland
Aggies. if they had the team which
wore their colors during the indoor
season, would be almost certain win.
that four will not compete. However,
the Farmers will send up quartet
that is not slow by any means.
st. Adams is the only institution IN
in the meet. One is to run in the pre-
paratory school championship and the
other in the regular class In which
st. Adams usually is rated. Central
High has a team booked for the cham
pionship of the high schools, and Tech
nical and Western High are entered.
Baltimore Polytechnic, Baltimore city
College and other institutions of this
character from tne SCUM -SlidHtiS ScS-
ton have fairly capable teams.

Georgetown won It's second game in
as many days yesterday, capturing an
8 to contest from the University of
North Carolina. The Blue and Gray
played consistently better ball than the
Tarheels, showing more versatility and
strength in every department Can't
well did the pitching for Georgetown

North Carolinians were unable to do
anything much against Cantwells de-
livery at any time. while the Blue and
Gray hit consistently. At the end of
the third period the Hilltopers had
lead OF i've runs. which made the con-
test easy.
West Virginia University is to meet
Georgetown today. The Blue and Gray
will be against a good ball club. though
the visitors are not likely to show
much hitting strength. West Virginia
has fast fielding combination and a
pitching staff that is way above the
average.
