PRO BASKET BALL.
Cleveland, 81; Rochester, 80.
c. i. FIVE BEATEN
IN OPENING CLASH
Baltimore U. Winner, 24-17,
Over Green Outfit of
BrookIanderS.

Catholic University basket ballers
were not impressive in their opening
tilt of the season at Brookland last
night against Baltimore University
and dropped 17-to-24 count. 1t was
certainly not anything like the quint
which represented the Brookland school
last Winter.
The Monumental City five, on the
other hand, put up much faster and
cleverer game last night than it dis
played a week ago against Georgetown
University, and from the opening
whistle the result of the outcome never
really was in doubt.
The starting lineup of the Cardinals,
with the exception of McCabe at CEN
ter, who was a reserve on the varsity
squad last season, were all SophomoreS
from the 1929 freshmen combina-
ton, and doubtless the team will de-
velop greater strength as the season
advances.
E. Clifford (Iinky) Hane, visiting
left guard, was the star performer OF
the evening, garnering four court goals
and three fouls for IL points, nearly
half the total of his team. In addition,
he played strong game at guard.
Blumette Leads Cards.
Blumette at forward for the Cardi-
mails was best for the home team with
two floor goals and foul. McCabe at
center was the only other G. U. man
to score from the floor more than once.
Baltimore was the first to count when
Hane sank a neat looper from side court
after about two minutes of play. A
minute later Elliott dribbled for an
other two-pointer to put the visitors
out in front, 4 to O.
Play had been under way about FIVE
minutes before Papalia scored the first
point for the Brooklanders from the
foul line. Hane rang up another dou-
ble-decker for Baltimore to give his
team a 5-point lead, which was main
tanned for the balance of the half,
which ended in afvor of the visitors,
IA to g.
After the intermission the Monumen-
tai City five, led by Silver. diminutive
forward, stepped out to an 18-to-8 lead,
and then proceeded to coast along.
Coach Fred Rice of Catholic Univer-
sity made several substitutions in the
second half in an effort to bolster his
attack, but it was to no avail.

its piers at 1915 am, nearly an hour
ahead of schedule.
Among those taken by surprise and
therefore not at the pier to meet him
was Quist, and Paavo landed pretty
much alone, except for fellow passengers
and the few newspaper men who went
down to the bay to meet the boat.
To them he granted his only inter-
view, a series of monosyllableS. shakes
of the head and repeated declarations

to Paavo and typical of the man.

that he had not turned professional

ANNAPOLIS, Md, December 15.-
Opening its basket ball campaign here
today, the Naval Academy team defeat
ed Western Maryland 40 to 81, and
gave much promise of a successful sea-
son by its speed and accurate shooting.
A tentative first combination played
the whole of the first half excepting
the last three minutes and led the

Second and third combinations were
used later in the game, the regulars
resuming play for the final 10 minutes.

Nurmi Arrives, Denies He Will
Turn Pro, and Then Disappears

a favorite reply to all questions and
invitations.
1t is expected, however, that Nurmi
will make his first appearance on this
second American tour at meet to be
conducted by the Finnish-American A.
c., at Madison Square Garden, January
IL, and will probably run in such big
events as the Millrose, Illinois A. G. and
Boston A. A. games later in the season.
Nurmi gave eloquent proof OF his
physical condition and at the same time
an evidence of his unassunling habits
when he stepped off the boat carrying
four heavy suitcases and scorning the
attentions of the ships stewards eager
to do something, anything, for the man
who proved in the last olympics that
he still can defend his title as the
fastest thing in shoes.
For the benefit of cameramen Nurmi
went through few racing PAGES along
the pier and he was still travelling fast
when he disappeared aboard a taxi.
Search Proves Futile.
When Quist arrived shortly before IL
o'clock he found Paavo had gotten his
baggage cleared some minutes before
and the pier was deserted except for a
customs employe, who was glad to- an
nounce he had shaken Nurni's hand.
Sleuthing about among the cab
drivers Hugo found Paavo's destination
had been Paterson.
The trail seemed warm and Quist
headed for the New Jersey city con-
fident Nurmi would be found there at
a residence where he had made his
headquarters part of the time while in
the United States in 1925.
But Paavo was not there and Quist,
returning to New York. began combing
the Bronx in the hope of locating
Nurmi at another of his haunts of three
years ago. After hours of searching
Quist was about ready to give it up and
case is that he cant find Paayol"

ANOTHER VICTORY
HoyaS Defeat Lafayette in
Handy Fashion, Score
Being AZ to "a.

Georgetown University's basket ball
team scored its third win in as many
starts this season when it handily de-
feated Lafayette, AZ to "a, last night In
the George Washington gymnasium.
From the outset the Blue and Gray
outclassed the Eastonians and after the
first five minutes held a commanding
lead. The half ended 19 to 5. George
town used flock of substitutes once
victory was assured, and against them
the visitors did little if any better than
against the regulars.
Hal Meenan, guard, and Don Dutton,
center, led the clever Short-passing
Georgetown attack. Meenan registered
style of play, taught by Coach Elmer
Ripley, is to work the ball under the
basket before shooting, and in this they
succeeded admirably last night. Few
of the G. u. goals were from long
range. While the Blue and Gray
tossers were constantly nenacing the
Lafayette goal, the latter was finding It
big job to get past the Georgetown
defense.
Sherwood Leads Visitors.
Sherwood, guard, was the most con-
siistent scorer for Lafayette, coming
through with trio of floor goals and as
many from the foul line for nine points.
High spots were nifty shots by Johnny
Scalzi, quarterback on the Blue and
Gray eleven, who broke into the game
at forward for a short time, and by
Freddy Mesmer, dimunitive forward,
In the preliminary Georgetown Fresh
men basketers chalked up their third
win in as many starts, drubbing Western

Hoya yearlings defeated Central and
Eastern High quints. Georgetown held

"It is tedious work. this learning to
