North Cardinals team is expected to
test thoroughly the Catholic University
quint that has been setting such a dizzy
pace in South Atlantic college basket
Black, the Tarheels have a veteran COM
bination that has garnered sectional
honors several seasons.
Carolina comes here minus one Of it's
regulars, but his place has been taken
by player touted as highly capable.
The Carolinians are starting their most
important road trip of the campaign
and would like nothing better than VIC
tories over the Brooklanders and the
College Parkers at the outset But they
will have to battle for them.
Georgetown does not know just what
ii is to encounter in the Carson Newman
FIVE. Nothing has been heard here of
the team that holds forth in Jefferson
City. Tenn. Occasionally. however,
the Volunteer state, so the Hilltoppers
have primed for the tilt. 1t will be
Georgetown's first engagement since
meeting with the reverse at Navy a
week ago Saturday.
Maryland and George Washington
probably are in for much trouble tomor-
row night. Even though Catholic Uni
versity may take much out of North
Carolina, the latter probably will have
Park team busy. George Washington
showed little against Gallaudet Satur-
day and if its opponent tomorrow night
is anything like a basket ball team the
Hatchetites are not apt to end their
long losing streak. This certainly does
not seem to be George Washington's
year for the floor game.
Ten Catholic University players and
Coach Fred Rice will leave tomor-
row morning for Newark The Red
and Black may use second-stringers
mostly against Newark Athletic Club
tomorrow night, for Coach Rice is
more than anxious that his regular

Catholic University victory over
Army would be startling. indeed.
Holding the Pointers to a close score
would add considerably to the Brook
landers' laurels.
1t fs unfortunate that Gallaudet
does not possess adequate facilities
for the entertainment of basket ball
teams, for the Kendall Greeners have
ter than most of those it has met.
With a larger court, Gallaudet would
be able to arrange home -and-home
series with practically all of the top
notchers of the south Atlantic Sec
tion instead of getting just a few
Kendall Green team that took the
floor aDainst George Washington Sat
urday night was well-drilled one
and individually would compare IA
vorably with several college outfits
hereabout. In Boatwright and Rid
die Gallaudet possesses a pair of
goal shooters remarkably capable.
Davis, too, seems very dependable
forward, while the guards take care
of their duties in a splendid manner.
Three Georgetown runners will COM
pete in the A. A. U. national junior
championships. in Buffalo, Saturday
night, one in the 300yard event, an
other in the 600, and the third in the
i 1000. Trials for the squad will be
held at the Hilltop Wednesday or
Thursday. The remainder of the Blue
and Gray trackmen will get daily
workouts in preparation for engage
ments next week. Further changes
| in the relay team that won at Boston
Saturday night are likely. some Of
| the men not coming up to expected
form. Heavy handicaps accorded
J other contestants kept Capt George
, Marsters from a place in the open
mile at the Hub. The first three to
| finish started from points we'll ahead
of where Marsters toed the mark.
Consideration Of applications for
the Georgetown foot ball coaching
