Two SPORT SQUADS
TOILING AT EASTERN

Foot ball and base ball candidates
were to work side by side today in
the Eastern High School Stadium at
the Inauguration Of Coach Guyon's
annual Spring gridiron practice.
The diamond squad was called out
yesterday, but will be unable to get
down to hard work for some time
vet, as the Eastern field has recently
been worked over and is In no con.
dition for PLAYING.
While the tossers are taking things
easy and waiting for the April show
ers to make the grass grow ~ the
ball field, the coach will give most Of
his attention to getting the foot ball
players In shape for the next cham
pionship fight. Practice will continue
as long as the weather remains cool.
Eastern's taking to the diamond
leaves RauS~Sss as the only one Of
the FIVE public high schools yet to
make a start toward the base ball
campaign. The Stenographers are
facing their usual problem OF locating
a suitable field and consequently are
not likely to get going until the pub
lics diamonds at the Monument
grounds are thrown open next month.
Central's nine was to play its first
practice game today with a combi-
nation Of former high school stars

With seven clubs having announced
their withdrawal, the future OF the

while It's officers await the gathering
Of the managers tonight at Spal-

The Shanrocks decided to drop out

TRACK SECRETS
by Sol Metzger---
When Breathing.

Nearly everybody who goes in
for athletics has the erroneous
opinion that he must breathe only
through his nose when running.
This Is absolutely incorrect.
There Is not an athlete today,
and there never has been one, who
did not open his mouth when doing
anything strenuous. He needs all
the air he can breathe. and 1t Is
impossible for him to have the nee
essary endurance II he tries to run
with his mouth closed.
Ted Meredith, perhaps the great
est middle.distance runner Of all
time, once told the writer that he
wished he had other openings to
his lungs than his nostr1ls and
mouth. as he could hardly get
enough air through them as it was.

Arguments Of the coaches follow:
JESS HAWLEY. DARTMOUTH
The new rule penalties the use Of the
forward pass to an extent which will
deprive 1t of its present uses and
again relegate 1t to q last resort. And
5.yard penalty will mean nothing
to a team trying desperately to win
in the last minutes. I'm sorry TO
sec 1t.
ROBERT G.. ZUPPKE, Illinois
Imposition Of penalties for incom
pleted passes is a mistake because II
will make the game less daring and
less interesting. Another effect will
be to make the officiating more cum
bersome. Many more 5.yard penalties
will have to be stepped off.
LOU YOUNG, PENNSYLVANIA
Rather than discourage long and in.
discriminate passing late in the game
I really believe 1t will tend to en-
courage more throwing of the ball.
1t looks as though the check was
aimed at some OF the colleges and uni
versities that have been too proficient
with the passing game.
DIR. j. w. WILCE, OHIO STATE
Restricting Of the pass will detract
from the spectacular features of the
game and will place greater burden

Mack doesn't minimize the desir.
ability Of getting and keeping his star
Grst baseman back on the job. But
when one remembers that Mack also
has Poole for first base it is easier
to understand why he replies so
promptly when he is asked what he
needs in order to win a pennant:
Good pitching"
AS for the pitchers, they seem to
be going better than they did hast
Spring. And there Is a row OF them
more or less supplying when you
look them over.
Flock of Left-Handers.
There are. among the left-handers,
Grove, Walberg, Baumgartner. Hell
mach, Willis Ia promising kid and
doesn't get homesick. And on the
ttght-hand side there are Gray, Rom.
mel, Quinn. Harris and May, q good
looking youngster.
1t is probably the double G. team Of
pitchers which will help the Athletics
iarthest along on their stride to glory.
Grove and Gray may turn out to be
rs sensational as any pair in base ball.
Grove Is much better than he was
last year when he reported to the
Athletics in Florida. He has over.
come some Of his wildness and learned
q great deal by his year Of experience

Speediest Of Southpaws.
He Is presumably the speediest left.
hand pitcher today in base ball, and
he seems to be the only speedy left
handler who throws perfectly
straight fast ball. Almost all pitchers
who go to speed either unconsciously
curve the ball or put a jump or hop
on 1t. Here Is q pitcher who hurls

1.-THE Court Of Appeals Of Maryland,
which declared the compact of 1876 as
not applying above tidewater on the
Potomac River. has caused many in.
duiries as to the application of the
local laws. In the counties Of Gar.
rett, Allegany and Carroll, the local
law requires all non-residents OF the
State, and in Washington and Frede'
rick counties, all non-residents of the
county, to procure an anglers license
at a cost Of IS to fish in said waters"
The Attorney General Of Maryland
was asked for an opinion on this sub
sect; and it is as follows: .,.r.,o. %
the effect of the recent decision Of
the Court of Appeals. upon the exist
ing State laws regulating fishing is
received BY the above opinion the
Court Of Appeals decided that the
compact between Maryland and Vir-
s.inia in reference to the jurisdiction
over the Potomac River extended only
so far as said river Is navigable, and
that above that point Maryland has
exclusive Jurisdiction. That being the
case, chapter $40 of the acts of 1924
VIII apply to all Of the Potomac River
that is not navigable. The opinion
does not decide at what point the
navigable part of said river COM
rnences, that being a matter OF fact to
lie determined by the evidence II the
occasion for SO doing should ever
arise.
You also ask what force and ef-
feet local laws passed by Maryland
rounties bordering on the non-navi'
t,able part Of the Potomac River have
in such part of said non-navigable
stream as lies within their respective
borders. In view Of the above opinion
OF the Court OF Apeals, these local
laws viii apply to that portion Of the
river lying within the limits of the
counties to the same extent as to other
streams lying within their territorial
jurisdiction, and such counties can en-.
force all local legislation which Is not
inconsistent with the general laws of
the State all the way to the West
Virginia line.
"You will note the Attorney Cen
erals ruling Is to the effect that the
counties herein mentioned having
local legislation, requiring an anglers
license, prevails. therefore, persons de.
string to fish In any Of the said waters
lying in said counties including the
Potomac River must purchase an
! anglers license"
