Most important, of course, is the
Georgetown track and field squads in
the intercollegiate meet Friday and
saturday at Franklin Field. The Blue
and Gray has been banking all Spring,
and all Winter, too. on the possibility
OF winning the intercollegiates. That
those in authority on the Hilltop are
OF the opinion that they have an eX-
cellent chance to win is not secret.
Georgetown men admit that for the
first time they stand an excellent
chance to capture first honors. Ger
tainly Georgetown will take TO Phiia-
delphia the best track and field squad
that has ever worn its colors.
Another important feature of the
week is Georgetowns trip North in
base ball. The Hilltoppers play Tues
day, Wednesday and Thursday, meet
ing consecutively Pennsylvania, Army
and New York Athletic Club.
Probably Maryland's most important
contest of it's whole Spring schedule,
with the possible exception of its field
day, on May 2, will be the annual Ia
crosse game with Johns Hopkins in
Baltimore Saturday. The game will
decide the Intercollegiate Lacrosse
League championship, as it is the last
&f the league schedule and neither
Hopkins nor Maryland has yet been
defeated. 1t is expected that the
, greatest crowd that has ever watched
a lacrosse game in Maryland will be
present when the teams face each
other on the Hopkins Field.
Here is how the schedule looks for
The remainder of the year in college
athletics:
Tuesday-GeorgetOw at Penn
sylvania, base ball.
Wednesday Georgetown at
Army, base ball.
ThurSday-GeOrgetow at New
York Athletic Club, base bail. Mary
land Varsity VS.. Freshmen, track,
at College Park.
Friday-GeOrgetown at InterCOl-
legiates at Philadelphia.
Saturday-Georgetown at Inter
colIegiates at Philadelphia. Mary
land at Hopkins, lacrosse.
Catholic University wound up its
Northern base ball trip yesterday by
trimming the Army, apparently with
out much trouble. Victory. in the
final game gives the Brooklanders an
even break on their trip, which, it
was pointed out early in the week,
was about all that should be eX-
pected. This gives the Brooklanders
an excellent season with II wins and
six losses.
The Brooklanders have announced
their foot ball schedule for next Fall.
The season is to open week later
than last year, the first game being
with Boston College at Boston. The
two main home games are to be with
Quantico Marines and George Wash
ington. The longest trip that the
team is to take is to Columbus, Ga,
hn Pnnninpr alaNon 0na
date is open, and it is possible that
Athletic Director Moran will not
schedule a game for that date, as it
is between the games with the
Marines and Muhlenberg, both GER
tain to be very difficult.
The schedule:
Oct. 3-Boston College at Bos-
ton.
Oct. 1e-BIue Ridge College, at
Brookland.
Oct. 17-ViIlanova, at Brook
land.
Oct. 24-Fort Benning, at Co.
lumbus.
Oct 31-Quantico Marines, at
Brookland.
., Nov. 7-0pen.
Nov. 14-Muhlenberg, at Brook
land.
Nov. sl-GaIlaudet. at Brook
land.
Nov. 26-George Washington, at
Br0okland.
Mel Burgee, who received broken
leg while on base after his last time
at bat in the last game of the base
ball season at the University of
Maryland Friday, may be kept out
of foot ball next Fall and cost the
Old Line eleven most promising
end. 1t was generally believed that
Burgee would be a very valuable man
on the gridiron, as he had shown re-
markable progress as result OF
wear on the freshman team and last
Falls experience as member of the
Scrambles, a team composed of in
eIigibes and men unable to make the
varsity squad. This is the squad
which uses opposing teams plays
against the varsity and consequently
takes a good hammering- Burgee
stood up well and had speed with
almost an ideal build for an end. 1t
is not probable that the broken mem
Der will be strong enough by next
Fall for him to accomplish much on
the gridiron.
Army and Navy divide in athletic
competitions this week in that the
navy base ball team goes to West
point and the Army lacrosse twelve
makes the trip to Annapolis. 1t is
probable that almost as much In
terest will be shown in what Is gong
on at the other places as in the con-
test which takes place before the eyes
of the respective student bodies.
Jt is likely that great many
Georgetown students will accompany
the track team to Philadelphia for the
intercollegiate championships. Not
Ivitbstanding the claims of Harvard,
vale and Pennsylvania to good teams,
IL is impossible to shake the conn.,
dence of Hilltop students in the men
who have been carrying their colors
so brilliantly all season. Georgetown
men believe their squad is gong 10
win the biggest track and held event
of the wear, and no doubt many OF
then, will be present at the finals on
Saturday to see what they expect TO
be a, triumph for their college.
Georgetown and Maryland track
SQUADS Yesterday had little difficulty
emerging victorious In the events In
which they took part. AT Annapolis
the Blue and Gray took the measure
of the Naval Academy in a dual az
fair. while at Richmond Maryland won
its final event of the year by outdis-
tancing the other colleges in the inyl-
tation meet. rs ei- s
