both DETERMINED
TO WIN SATURDAY
Contest Sure to Be Classic
of Campaign and Will
Be No "Pink Tea"
BY II. C. BYRD.

Tor the second time in as
r. many years, the Navy and
4 Maryland battle Saturday at
Annapolis for the national
lacrosse championship. Last year
the MiddieS and the Old Liners
met in the final and deciding
game, which the former won by
to 8. This Spring the same con-
ditionS exist, and to whichever
twelve is crowned with victory in
this particular contest will go the
highest honorS the game affords.
Navy has not yet been defeated. It
has straight string of victories over
the college and university teams it has
faced and is banking high on finishing
the game with Maryland with the long
end of the score. At the IN" dinner
Monday night considerable emphasis
was laid on the performances Of the
lacrosse squad and the desire to make
the season really brilliant by beating
Maryland for national honors.
Incidentally, Nays desire for the la
crosse title was productive of a rather
amusing incident at the IN" dinner.
Admiral Robson, superintendent Of the
Naval Academy, was speaking in highly
complimentary terms Of the perform
anceS of the lacrosse team to the teams
captain, RED" Allen. who was standing
before him to receive the letter and
medal awards for last years champion
ship.
And then Admiral Robson went O
little further and indicated what was
expected of the lacrosse team this
week. While Admiral Robson was talk
ing, Allen kept glancing little to Ad-
miral Robison's left, where q represent
alive Of the University of Maryland was
sitting. Finally Admiral Robson fol-
lowed the glance, then turned and
addressed the Maryland
representative, "Of course, what say
team that represents your institution.
but we still want that championship"
Grueling Game Is Certain.
There was no reply to Admiral Robi-
son, except smile, but II any reply
had been made 1t would have indicated
that Maryland wants to beat Navy
just about as Navy wants to beat
Maryland. Navy has lost one game this
season, that to the Oxford Cambridge
twelve in the opening of the season.
Maryland also has lost one, that to
st. Johns, which later was whipped
Ny 1AOPAao1 "AAAS.A Aa GuAA was SAioGA-
cred by Maryland Navy on its home
field probably has some little advan-
tage, but not much.
There is not the least doubt that the
two greatest lacrosse teams in the United
States will be struggling for highest
honors In that game. No twelve ever
gave O finer exhibition of play than
Maryland against Hopkins last week,
and its one question is whether or not
1t can maintain that standard Navy
probably will play somewhat different
type OF game from that put up by
Hopkins, and there Is not much doubt
that the contest will be rough, hard,
gueling test, with both teams giving

HYATTSVILLE TUNES
FOR STATE SERIES

HYATTSVILLE. Nd, May 2s.--
Hyattsville High Schools, base ball team,
Prince Georges County champion, will
meet Towson High, Baltimore County
standard bearer, in o first-round game
Of the State title series Monday at
o'clock In Carroll Park, Baltimore, ac-
cording to the pairings announced yes
terday.
Hyattsville also entered the State
series last Spring as the county repre-
sentative: but was eliminated in the
first round by Tracys Landing High Of
Anne Arundel County.
With the idea of keeping the Hyatts-
Vile team in the best possible shape for
the Towson match Coach Leland G..
Worthington has announced cancella-
ton of the teams two remaining games
outside Of championship play. Con-
zaga was to be met today In Wash
ington and Charlotte Hall was to be
engaged tomorrow at Charlotte Hail.
Boosting what Is doubtless the best
diamond record in the annals of the
school, having won IS of 16 games, the
Hyattsville team entertainS hopes of
going far In the State series, though In
TowSon the Prince Georgians are apt
to encounter stern opposition. It was
the TowSon soccer team that last Fall
eliminated Hyattsville In the State title
series.

20 scors seven runs in the fourth only to
have the Gray come back to regain the
lead and win the game by shoving
across seven additional tallies in the
fth and sixth innings. Both Everett
Russell and Jack Cooke, who finished
the game on the mound for Tech and
Central, respectively, did well. Russell
relieved Roland Price, starting McKin-
ley pitcher, in the fourth after Central
had scored six of its seven runs. Cooke
replaced ChildresS, who earlier had gone
to the rescue of Pollock, the first Cen
trail finger.
Central Has Big Inning.
In Central's big seventh Bob Hall,
left fielder, with two on, smote long
homer to the track in left field. Capt.
Bennie Spigel, Tech outflelder, also hit
for the circuit with pair on the run
way, his drive in the fifth going over
the center field wall Catcher Dick
Cooke of Central, brother of Pitcher
Jack Cooke, got five singles in as many
tries.
AS the result Of its win Tech gained
second-place tie with Business at two
wins and two losses each, while Central
sank to the cellar with one victory and
three defeats.

NEW. YORK, May 28.-The speed

nia-travel along on their annual quest
for the intercollegiate A. A. A. A. track

Eight times in the last 10 years the
varsity crown has returned to the Pa
ciflc seaboard, and unless all signs and
portentS fail, back 1t will go to the coast
again this year. This Is admitted by
Lawson Robertson, coach of Penn, one
of the leading Eastern contenders, mas
much as Southern California heads for
Cambridge with one of the most power
full and best balanced teams that the
West has ever turned out.
Ample testimony of this is the
trouncing that the Trojans handed
Stanford in their dual meet out on the
Coast, Southern California winning,
"a 1-12 to 46 Hip. And no one was
reader to recognize the strength of
Coach Dean Cromwells proteges than
Dink Templeton, Stanford mentor.

M on the construction of
the first unit of a fine,
up-to-the-minute ath-
letic stadium for Gonzaga High
School, it was announced today
by Father F. J. O'Hurley, athletic
director of the school. He said
that the contract calls for compile

trio Power Co. plant. by July 10

since coming to Gonzaga two years ago
has been working assiduously for a
stadiura, the bottom of the lowest seats
In the stands will be Az feet above the

In the stadium.
Rather O'HurSey Deserves Credit.
When Father O'Hurley assumed his
poSt at Gonzaga he saw the possibility
Of securing stadium for the school and
forthwith theoretically devoted his time
toward this end. Incidentally, the Con-
waga director of athletics came here from
st. Peters College in New Jersey, where
he was closely identified with athletics
and athletes. Prior to that he was at
Boston College.
Father O'Hurley's objective Is to make
foot ball pay the way of the entire Con-
Ea9a athletic program. Last Fall when
the new field was used for the first time
the sport paid for itself for the first
time. Father O'Hurley Is confident that
with q stadium and a strict eligibility
code In effect Gonzaga will always be
able to arrange a fine schedule in foot
ball as well as in other sports.
He points to the fact that a bang
up grid card has been arranged, which

today for its final game of the season.
Pennsylvania is to be the opposing
club and the Old Liners are hopeful
of winding up their schedule with a
victory. Coach Shipley did not say who
would do the hurting for him, but it
is probable that either Milburn or Bat
son will be on the slab.

CANADA APPLIES
IMMIGRATION BAN
First Move Taken Against
Europeans Toward SoIv-
ing Unemployment.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
OTTAWA. Ontario, August 16.-Im-
migration from continental Europe TO
this country is prohibited today as
Canada's first move toward solving the
unemployment situation.
Announcement of the ban was made
yesterday by w. A. Gordon, minister of
immigration and colonization, who said
that the only exception to the order
would be admission of experienced
farmers of suitable type.
He said the new policy would not
interfere with free movement from
Great Britain or the United States of
tourists or those engaged in business or
commerce, but that the government
would neither solicit nor encourage
such movement at the present time.
Minister Gordon'S announcement
said: This policy is rendered necessary
by reason of the unemployment in
Canada. The purpose Is to prevent per-
sons from coming to this country who
will not be able to find work upon
arrival and to protect the people of
Canada from the burden of such I'M
employment. We regard the present
situation as temporary, but we propose
to apply an effective remedy until I'M
employment conditions have improved"
Unemployment relief was the present
Conservative governments chief CAM
paign pledge before the recent cleo
tons which put it in power.

Thomas B. Slick of Oklahoma City,
Okla, known as the wealthiest indie

at the Johns Hopkins Hospital here at
2:l5 o'clock this morning.

provement for some time after his ad-
mission, but suffered a setback on

Slick entered the Pennsylvania oil
fields early in life and later went West,
and in March, 1929, sold his Western
holdings to the Prairie Oil e. Gas Co.
