Georgetown has so far this season sue

one of the best combinations seen at
Georgetown in several years.
The Hilltoppers possess a team in
Cashlin, O'Lone, McNulty, Fees and
O'Boyle which are good basket shooters,
and are as good as any team seen around
Washington at passing the ball.
George Washington has succeeded in
taking the scalps of Gallaudet and the
Catholic University quints, but have not
entertained the Georgetown tossers this
sea son.
The Hatchetites have been playing very
good basketball this year and are not SO

A Few Who VIII Not Strike

New York, Jan. 19.-Numerous inter.
views given out from the fraternity side
would indicate that the ball players
are lined up solidly to inforce the de-
mands for minor league reforms. list
Of few American leaguers who will
answer first orders to the training camps
gives an idea of the solid 'front.' in the
ranks of the players.
The list Is not complete one, even
of American leaguers who will not
strike, but 1t shows Just a part Of the
strength which the club owners do not
have to worry about. While minor
leaguers and lesser lights OF the big
show attend the strike meetings these
players sit back and calmly await orders
to report in the South. Here are a few
who win be ready when wanted, strike
or no strike: Tyrus Cobb, Iris Speaker,
George sisler. Eddie Collins. Frank
Baker. Walter Johnson, Sam Crawford.
Babe Ruth, r. Peckinpaugh, Stuffy Nc
Innis, Joe Jackson, Clyde Milan, L.
Nunamaker, Ernest Shore Ernest Koob.
Lee Masee, Steve O'NeiIl, Sam Agnew.
Bob Shawkey, Eddie Foster, Joe Gedeon.
Bobby Roth. Ray Chapman, Elmer
Myers. Fritz Maisel, Joe Benz, Frank
Gilhooley, Ray Caldwell, Oscar stanage,
Ray Schalk. Ray Fisher. Ray Morgan,
Charles Mullen. Terry Turner, Lawton
Witt, John Lavan.
With these and several other American
Leaguers in line, and a flock OF recruits
all signed, the strike Is sure hzzle.

In the nightcap game in getting the large
end of the score from the scrappy East
ern team IS to 9.
Daley. who played left forward for the
Blue and White team. was responsible
for his teams victory over the Orange
and Blue quint. After missing three at
tempts to win the game for Central by
shooting goals from the fouls circle,
he came back strong by caging two bas-
kets from midcourt in the last minute
of play. Daley scored seventeen of his
teams points and also played a good
passing game.
The Orange and Blue played the Blue
and White lads of their feet in the first
half. which ended Is TO in their favor
Central came back strong in the last
half and held the stenOgraphers to one
field goal and scored enough TO tie its
opponents II all.
Both teams entered the extra FIVE min
utes OF play with a rush which brought
the CrOWO TO It's leet. BOth Daley and
r. Wise had chances TO win the game
for their team by free tossing. but both
failed.
In the last five minutes OF play Ready
shot a goal from the floor which looked
to be enough to win, but Daley surprised
the crowd by caging two diffcult goals
from the court which won the game.
Soloman put up a good game for Gen.
trail while r. Wise did the best all-roupd
work for his team.
In the nightcap the Manual Trainers
strengthened their bid for the title by
defeating the boys from Capital Hill
Both teams displayed the best basket
ball in any game played so far in the
series
Tech owes its victory mainly to the
close guarding Of its two guards, D,
Pfeiffer and Schneider, who guard led
their men so closely that neither one shot
a goal from the floor. They broke UP
many good chances Eastern had Of scor-
ing.
Tech guarded so close in the first half
that Eastern did not get a goal from
the court. but in the last half the Cap

goals by this route
The work OF Newman and Thomas was
the best for the losses. The summary:
