they will take the train in Pitts
burRh for their 1.OOO-mile jaunt to

who is not in good standing with the

the pIayers whose contracts were not
signed would not be taken to the
camp.
Max Carey is still a holdout. and it
is expected that he will remain so
unless there is something done that
will bring him into the fold. Max
states that he will not sign at the
figure offered him, and Barney states
thar he will not give Max any more

the matter rests.
From past Indications, IL would ap-
near that Barney will win out. as he
has a record of doing things his way.

Hyattsville right at the outset by
rolling 55S to 5ls. The visitors came
back strong with 545 to 535 in the

out of college to enter G. w. u, and
Coach Rice was left f1atfooted.
Changes His Policy.
With a group of youngsters from
the freshmen class, Coach Rice pro-
ceeded to build up an entirely new
combination. Z. L. O'Brien, Glasscott,
Croddy, Crosby, Bligh, sNugent, Broad
bine and McGovern were recruited
from the first year group, and the
team has played with a freshman
team throughout, with the exceptions
of Frank Green, a sophomore, and E.

Just how apt the youngsters were
at working together is seen in the
last four games, which were recorded
on the right side of the ledger. Ran
