TO MEET
HILLTOP QUARTET
Fordham Relay Four Is Un-
able to Race Georgetown.
Pennsylvanians Be Seen.

Due to the loss OF Capt Mclaughlin.
Fordham will be unable to send its one
mile relay team to do battle with the
Blue and Gray in the banner attraction
of the Georgetown University Indoor
Games to be held at the Convention
Hall on Saturday evening. February IL.
However Manager Flanagan announced
last night that arrangements have been
made to bring the fast one-mile relay
team Of Lehigh University to match
strides with the HilltOppers in the Star
Event.
Lehigh proved itself TO be most for
midable foe in this event last year and
should prove itself even more formidable
this year as it has a veteran team with
the exception OF one man. whom, it is
reported has been replaced by one equal
ly as fast.
Although Coach o'ReiIIey has not. as
yet, picked his relay he has a number to
pick from and It is expected that the
same quality of relay, which has repre-
sented Georgetown in late years. will be
evidenced when Georgetown and Le-
high are called to what promises to be
the best Of the evenings attraction.
Leighty, who has made a name for
himself in football, is bound to be recOg-
nized as a runner of ability. while Weiser,
Orrey, Brett, Amy, and O'Hagsn have
TO be counted as contenders for the re-
lay. Never before has the competition
for a relay team at the Hilltop been 80
keen. Griffith OF local fame is rounding
in form fastly and can be counted on in
the dashes. while Mccormack. Of Carl
ton Academy. Reno and Smith will be on
hand to show their abilities in the dashes
and to help bring home some points tC

six feet during the week and promise
to hang up a record for himself II he car

ally well in practice and a little COM
petition will bring out the best that Is
in him The latter did very well in tht
meet last year and. unless all dope goes
wrong. he will be heard from again this
year.
Dan O'Connor and Frank Green are
showing up very well in the weights and
although new at the game give promise
OF few points in that event.
Georgetown has been awarded five
South Atlantic championship events for
the meet namely. 50-yard dash, 5O-yard
hurdle, two-mile run, running high jumr
and putting ls-pound shot These should
bring out the best athletes in this divi.

BADLY BEATEN
Gallaudet Quint Trims Down
Town Team in Kendall Green
Gym by 81 to q Count.
FEATURES

All doubt as to the superiority Of the
Gallaudet and George Washington bas-
ket-ball teams was put by the wayside
last night when the former quint not only
defeated the Hatchetites, but at no time
during he game was the outcome in
doubt. Earlier in the season the down
town quint registered a victory over
Coach Haas team by margin of /
point, but last night Gallaudet more
than retaliated the dose with a 5l-to-23
score.
The first half started with Rockwell
shooting a pretty goal from the field,
closely following this with two more.
From this time on II was grand parade
to and from the Gallaudet basket, the
Kendall Green team registering points at
will. At the end OF this period Gallaude ct
held the upper hand of a 3s-to-9 score.
Throughout this period fouls were call
ed with regularity, the George Wash
ington team being the greatest offender
though not one of the players was dis
qualified.
Starting with the whistle the George
Washington team began to score, but
at the same time Gallaudet was doing
likewise. Not until Almon and Powers
were put out Of the game for personal
fouls did the pace slacken. the substi-
tutes who went in being unable to hold
their own.
The passing Of both teams was good.
but that of Gallaudet was excellent, this
department of the game being responsible
for the large score.
Rockwell and A. Wenger, OF the CAL
laudet team, together with Powers and
Shaver. of the HatchetItes, kept the
large crowd to fits feet at all times, the
performance of Rockwell and Shaver be-
ing more than creditable, the latter
shooting his three goals in the final
period. Lineup and summary:

To attend the dinner celebrating the
ortisth anniversary Of the National
kLsague next Wednesday and hoping to
pull OF a trade or two, Clark Griffith,
1snager Of the Washington baseball
club, leaves for New York tomorrow
afternoon.
I've got several players I'd like TO
trade or sell. including Chick Gandil,"
Grin told the writer. whether or not
will be able to do any business I
cannot say.
Il happen to know that the men I
am willing to use in a trade or sale
are wanted by certain club owners,
but thus far they have not made me
any offers I would care to consider"
Are you bidding for the services of
Harold Janvrin. utility in1sIder Of the
Boston Red Sox?' Grih was asked
Il tried to get him but found there
was nosing doing" the Old Fox re-
piled.
Asked about other possible trades
the Old Fox had little to say for pun
lication, and nobody can blame him,
because many a big deal has been
blocked because the tip was given out
in advance and newspaper notoriety
made both parties suspicious that
one or the other was trying to sell or
buy a gold brick.
Pitcher Bill James. OF the Detroit
Tigers, is quoted in an interview as
saying that Harry Harper. who win
be with Griffith in Washington this
year. will. before the season is far ad-
yanced, be recognized as one Of the
best young curvers in the game.
Harper was with the American ana
National League teams on their tour
through the West last fall, and his
work was far superior to that of any
other pitcher on the two teams" de-
Clared James. Harper is a left
handler with speed. control. curves,
and a good. steady head In other
words, he has pitching sense"
\ New York seer has written a piece
for A Gotham paper in which he says
the Pirates will win the 1916 pennant,
and that Pitcher Erve KantIehner is go
,ng to develop into a sensation. He says
Mamaux IS going to have another big
year. and that the New York Yankees
will finish ahead Of all other clubs in
the American League. Pitcher Ray Cald-
