George Washington and Gallaudet
will reopen the collegiate basket ball
season tomorrow night. The contest is
scheduled to take place in the Central
Y. NJ. C. A. gymnasium, in which
! George Washington will play all it's
home games. Next week Georgetown
play again, after which all four of the
local colleges have contests scheduled
until the first week in March.
Gallaudet has played one game
against college and so has George
Washington. The Hatchetites met the
| Navy and lost by decisive score. while
the Kendall Greeners were defeated by
Catholic University in a rather medi-
ocre exhibition. The two teams will
be much stronger tomorrow than in
| their exhibitions before the holidays,
| though, as George Washington played
| the Navy after having had very little
practice and Gallaudet went against
Catholic University with two of its star
players on the side lines because of
conditions in scholastic work.
Two contests are scheduled to take
place in the Interscholastic Basket
Ball League today. The Western High
I.
Business High is to meet the Army and
Navy Preparatory School. The games
are to be played at the Arcade and will
begin at 3 o'clock.
Western is expected to win its con-
test with ST. Adams, and the other
game ought TO be fairly even propo-
sition with Business having the mar
gin somewhat. The games are likely
to be well attended, great deal of
interest being shown in nearly every
contest played SO far. Each of the high
school quints has large following, and
many outsiders interested in the game
usually go to watch the schoolboys
play.
Rumor has it that Bill Hollenbach,
former Pennsylvania halfback and
Penn State coach, will take Bob Fol-
wells vacated job at Washington and
Jefferson. 1t also is said that the Uni
versity of California Is sending a rep
resentative east to get Hollenbach 8
name to a contract to coach at Cali
fornia next fall. Hollenbach was men,
sible coach of the University of Penn
sylvania, and had it not been that Bob
Folwell agreed to take up the work he
probably would have been signed. Since
FolwelPS appointment to the position
at Pennsylvania Hollenbach has been
mentioned as probable assistant coach.
| and Folwell has stated emphaticaiiy
that he would name Hollenbach as his
direction. Hollenbach, though, with po-
sitions as head coach at Washington
and Jefferson and University Of Cali
fornia open to him. will hardly want to
play second fiddle" even to Folwell.
The University of North Carolina is
another southern school which will
meet two big northern institutions next
fall in foot ball. The Carolina eleven
goes to Princeton October and then
plays Harvard the 14th. These two
contests, coming within one week
of each other, mean that the Chapel
Hill aggregation will be compelled to
get in shape earlier than usual and
will meet much stronger opponents
than it has faced in recent years. The
contests, too, mark a departure on the
part of North Carolina in the arrange
ment of it's schedule. Heretofore the
Tarheels have met southern teams and
have confined their activities mostly
to the institutions in the south At
lantic and far southern sections. The
arrangements of the games with Har-
ward and Princeton indicate they are
seeking alliances with northern elev-
ems, following presumably in the foot
steps of the University of Virginia,
which has had extraordinary success.
