American U. Will Play High Point-Maryland
Is Engaging Michigan Tonight.

~ OLLEGE basket ball here

lima. High Point will remain over to
play George Washington on Thurs
day night
GallaudGt and George Washington
will hook up in the latter's gym Sat
urday night. and ut the same time
Catholic University will entertain
Blue Ridge College.
In the meantime the University of
Maryland tossers are in the Midwest,
meeting Michigan tonight with two
other contests hanging in the bal
ance. 1t is possible that Maryland
may meet Michigan State tomorrow
night at Lansing, and if this contest
materializes the old liners will play
Kentucky at Lexington Saturday
night also. If the Michigan State
game is not played, the Terrapins will
come home after battling the Wolye-
rines tonight.
Gallaudet Played two games prior to
The holidays. defeating Arnold College,
but losing to Bridgewater while Cath
Ollie University mopped up with Wash
ington and Lee in it's only encounter
in December. Gallaudet is stronger
than usual. but Catholic University
has 81 great team and should be a
heavy favorite.
Nothing is known about the caliber
of the High Point team, but 1t will
have to well above the average to
cope with American University and
George hington-American u. won
straight games prior to the holidays,
showing fast, aggressive and ex-
perienced quintet, while George Wash
ington in its lone game displayed
much potential power in defeating
Delaware, a clever combination, 20 to
28,.
Maryland broke even in two clashes
prior to Christmas. Invading the
American L. gym for it's opening
game ii was beaten by the Metho-
dists. who were playing their fifth
contest, u to IS. However, The Old
Liners came back strong the next
night and easily disposed of Washing
ton ana Lee.
Maryland will be the underdog in
game with Michigan tonight, but
should have an even chance with
Michigan State and Kentucky if these
games are played. Michigan has one
of the most powerful teams in the
country and the Old Liners left Col
lege Park in none too good trim.
Believing the trip was off the players
were permitted TO suspend prac-
tice after last Friday and to enjoy
themselves over Sunday. They We're
gotten together hastily yesterday for
short workout before setting sail
for Arm Arbor in charge of Coach
Burton Shipley.

 Alderman John F. Macrz of the sixth ward and Councilman Samuel SablOtsky who represent the same district sponsor the idea.

 Councilman Sablotsky advances a second objection in the fact that private contractors idemnify the city against losses or poor work manship, and guarantee completion of the job within the bid price by furnishing q bond. If the public works department cannot meet it's of finance for more money and it must be furnished, the councilman points out.
