Rolls Up a 47-to-28 Count
in Defeating Virginia
Medical College.
ED by Burgess, Lichliter and Kess-
Ter. the American University


Ter, the American University
quintet scored handily over the
I IL Virginia Medical College five last
night, registering 47-to-28 vic
tory In the Nebraska avenue GYM
nasium. Burgess, with II points, was
the high scorer, while Lichliter and
Kessler were the pivots of the A.. U.
offensive.
Virginia Medicos were outclassed in
shooting rather than floor play. Re-
peatedly they carried the sphere down
the court only to fail in their attempts
to find the hoop after breaking through
the last defense. Byrd was their heavy
scorer. accounting for Is tallies. Capt.
Daniel Gagged some spectacular pot
shots, and made himself generally USE
full in pushing the ball forward.
Things were less slow In the opening
half, A. U. feeling out the opposing de-
tense, always with the upper hand, and
the Medicos missing too many of their
scoring attempts.
Burgess broke the ice early in the
game with quick one for A. u. Beal
evened the count, then Burgess scored
again, and from this point the hosts
kept the lead continuously. The score
at half time was 10 to IL in favor of
American University.
In sudden burst of speed A. u.
rolled up 31-to-l9 count In the first
five minutes of the second half. The
Richmond SawboneS came back to add
8 more to their credit, but A. U. was
doing a little collecting on their own
account during this time, which Melted
them their total of AZ to the visitors 20.

Boxer Leaves for Germany
Still at Odds With His
E'0fficiaI" Manager.

N yEW YORK. February 16.-Max
M schmeling, the German
aboard the Deutschland this
afternoon with the breach be-
tween himself and his manager, COM
patriot and former close friend, Arthur
Bulow, wider than ever and the time of
his return to American rings most in
definite.
Schmeling, whose three knockouts in
four fights in this country made him
the talk of the boxing world, declared
that rather than recognize Bulow's au-
thority he would abandon all thought
of fighting in the United States until
the expiration of his contract, October
80, 1880.
Accompanying him was Joe Jacobs,
the New York veteran Of the boxing
game whom Bulow accuses of alternating
the fighters flstic affections. Others in
the party were Max Mochan, trainer;
Herman SpieSke, middleweight, who
will serve as sparing partner aboard
ship, and Albert Fuchs, Schmeling' 5
trainer.
Although told emphatically by the
New York State Athletic Commission
that Bulow alone has the right to make
matches for Schmeling, Jacobs said he
was hopeful that when he and the
boxer return In April the commission
will relent and recognize him as the
Germans pilot.

TF 1t is as true with managers
as 1t is with players that
those most highly touted
= usually prove. the biggest
disappo intments, Walter john
son may be regarded as headed
for success in his initial big
league managerial fling with
the Nationals this season.
While none has been found
who wishes Johnson other than
well in the job he is essaying
here, none likewise has seen
fit to paint Walters prospects
in rosy. hueS, and some of the
Journalistic commentators are
downright pessimistic in eSti-
mating the outlook for him in
his new role.
"WaIter johnson will be an
experiment as a major league
manager" writes one. "He had
a trial in the international
League last year, as leader of
the Newark team. It finished
in seventh place, 1012 games
behind the pennant winners.
Before the season began Newark
was picked to make a runaway
race Of it. It was the top
heavy favorite."
Johns0n's future may, to some ex-
tent, be judged by his recent past,
according TO the writer in question,
who asserts that while Walter has
much knowledge of base ball he
failed 70 enforce discipline at New
ark.
"In Justice to Johnson" he adds,
however, sit must be said that he
was i'll through the first two months
of the season and did not take
charge of the club until late In May.
7 He found morale at low ebb. Dis
cipline was lacking Johnson was
unable to supply 1t. Things went
from bad to worse, and while he
showed ability to maneuver his play
ers on the field he lacked ability to
keep his players in condition and
maintain order. There were fines
and suspensions late in the season,
but by that time the team was be-
yond recall"
This Is a distressing picture to
present to hopeful Washington fans,
or mould be If they took it seriously,
and the coIun,nist quoted finds more
gloom In pointing out that along
NTH Johnson, Ty Cobb, iris Speaker
and Eddie Collins comprise the four
leading players OF the American
League In the last tUo decades, and
that the other three haze had their
trials as managers, and all failed.
"Unless johnson can handle men
he will 90 the way of the other three
members. Of the immortal four" this
observer 0pines in a manner COM
parable to twisting the knife after
stabbing with 1t.
But" he adds, at may be that
one year in the minors was what
johnson needed to show him the
way. He may go at the job differ
emily now that he Is head Of
major league team"
