However, the publication of
the diamond schedule today
removes these fears,
Also, the laying out of two new
baseball fields blasts all rumors
that the Terrapins were TO chuck
the national pastime from its spring
schedule. Lacrosse, rfostered by the
willy and warning Indians in the early
days of Canada. comes first with the
colleges and high schools OF Mary
land, more particularly Baltimore.
Fifteen Of 20 games have
been carded for Maryland
GliamOnders who will be schOoled
again by Burton Shipley, one
OF Curly Byrd's trusted lieu
tenants. Twelve OF the con.
tests are with teams Of the
South Atlantic group Of the
Southern Conference, home
Rnd-hone series being arranged
with each.

Coach Shipley will marshal a
veteran aggregation when the can.
didates are assembled the latter
part Of March for their first out
door drill. Only Luke Bromley,
southpaw pitcher, was lost through
graduation, although Jack Batson

Hardly any home field and track

trucks have completed their dirt
removal before a new track can be
laid. This precludes the possibility

has been an annual fixture for over
ten years.
There is chance that Elmer
Ripley, coach Of the Georgetown
University passers who entertain
Johns Hopkins tonight in the Ameri-
can University gym at siS0 o'clock,
will designate Bill Shea as STRAIT
ing forward over Johnny Dunn.
This move would leave Don Button
and Shea in forwards, Paul Dillon,
center and Captain Freddy Mesnier
and Maurice Mccarthy. guards.
The Blue Jays are bringing over
a strong combination to oppose the
Hilltoppers and they are partieu-
larly anxious to down Georgetown
in return for the two defeats Of
q year ago. The Baltim ofeans place
much OF TN Ell dependence in
