23-9, in Opening League.
BIG CROWD AT Y. M. C. A.
BY b. c. BYRD.

Last night in the y. Nj. c. A
gymnasium the intercollegiate
Basket Ball League got under
way. with two games, which re-
suited III victories for George
Washington and Catholic Uni
versity. George Washington won
from Gallaudet by 20 to Is and
Catholic University defeated
Maryland State by % to 9. Both
contests were hard fought, but
they were marked by poor shoot
ing for goals and many fouls. 1t
was the first time that games I'M
der an intercollegiate organize
ton have been tried here, and
those interested were pleased
with the result. The Y. NJ. c. \.
gallery was crowded and more
interest than usual was displayed
in the games by spectators and
players.
George Washington and Gallaudet
held the suspense of the crowd until
the last few minutes by the cioseness
of their play, but il was apparent after
the first ten minutes that Catholic Uni
versity was superior to Maryland State
e.
the best material that has worn its
colors in many a year. The Hatch
cities are represented by Il rangy ag-
gregation of players which probably
will be heard from before the season
ends.
Lansche Plays Strong Game.
Lansche at guard did some splendid
work against Gallaudet. His perform
ance was the best OF the game. Play

cog in his teams defense; his passing
was accurate and he showed greater
familiarity with the game than the

bunch of green youngsters. has mate

Gailaudet has a husky auint, though
it misses the cleverness in floor play
and accurate passing which dis
tinguished the Wenger brothers last
year. whitman at guard was the best
man for the Kendall Greeners, his Of
fensive and defensive play being ex-
cellent.
AS was expected. OBrien and Glas-
colt proved the shining lights of the
Catholic University five. The former
was about three -fourths of the offense
and the latter almost as much of the
defense. C. L. trotted out lot of SUBJ
stitutes. who appeared to have promise
of potential worth. 1t was combination
which ought to develop into g L..
team of average strength. Maryland
State did as well against the Brook
landers as it expected. With green
men and little practice about all the
State five could do was play strictly a
defensive game, which they did fairly
creditably.

G. w. U. Beats Gallaudet.

George Washington started at
rather slow pace against Gallaudet. Its
play was sluggish, and on the offensive
it did not get going until the closing
half of the second period. So stub
bornly did Gallaudet play against the
Hatchetites that the score at the end
of the first half stood to in favor of
the Kendall Greeners. Both teams paid
particular attention to defensive work,
though Gallaudet's inaccurate shooting
cost it several goals. Good opportuni-
ties offered, but the players trimmed
the ball on the basket by shooting too
straight and not looping.
In the second half Wilson and Witt
managed to elude the men covering;
them and scored five field goals be-
tween them. The latter got down the
floor from his guard position and
dropped the ball In the basket three
times Excellent passes by Lansche

Two goals from the field by Whitman
