MATCH
MAY DECIDE
!. TITLE
BY JUNO KINERK

The nigh spot IN the ouCuooi
sports season will be reached to-
morrow when Maryland stages
its big four ring athletic carnival
that includes three varsity en-
gagements and the annual State
interscholaStic track meet.
y A dual meet with Virginia,
which will be run in conjunction
with the scholastic meet, and a
baseball game against Catholic
U. will precede the blue ribbon
event of the days offerings, the
lacrosse match with st. Johns.
This stick match will just about
decide the college champion of
this sport, since both are unde-
feated and as strong, or stronger
than anything else in the coUn-
try. 1t probably will start at 4
o'clock. The track meet is to
begin at 1870 o'clock and the ball
game at 2 o'clock.
Nearly 400 boys are COM
-. peting in the scholastic meet,
in which Mike KeIIey's strong
and welI-balanced Eastern
High team is q, pronounced
favOrite to repeat the cham
pionShips it won indoors in
the Virginia and Catholic u.
AS for the varsity track meet,

able margin. The latter lacks
strength in the field events. The
baseball game gives promise of
being evenly contested, although
Maryland will be slight favorite
to cop. Greater hitting strength
gives the Old Liners the edge,
but if Lou Hurley, c. us big
right handler, has all his stuff
he will be a tough nut for them
to crack.
The lacrosse game is what
promises to be the thriller. The
Old Liners are still smarting from
that 81 defeat the Johnnies hung
on them last year and are more
than ready to do something about
1t. That something, Maryland
fans are convinced, will take the
shape of a well-earned victory,
but only after the toughest kind
of a battle, for the Johnnies
again boast a powerful combina-
ton. .
Georgetown's baseball and
track teams take the road to-
morrow, the former meeting
Seton Hall College, at Orange,
N. j., in quest of the fifth
straight win of their new win
ming streak, while Coach O'Reilly
will lead his small band of cinder-
path artists to New York for a
dual meet with New York U.
/, The Blue and Gray trackmen
can hardly hope to outpoint the
Violets unless it be in the matter
of first places for a moral vic
tory since their host will have
all the better of it in the way of
man power to grab up second
and third places as well as wins.
Besides having only a very small
squad of men, Coach O'Reilly
must shift several men from
their regular events to others to
put representatives in all events.
The HilItOpperS have no
men Of any caIiber at all in
the mile or two mile and the
I loss of Wildermuth in the
sprintS and broad jump means
o difference of just about Is
points, too. Through the other
events Georgetown is reason
ably strong except in the hur-
dies, for KjellStrOm is being
bothered with a bad left leg.
Maryland won its fifth confer
ence baseball game when it de-
aeated Virginia, 8 to S. It was the
fifth victory for Jack Batson, too.
The Marines had too much punch
for c. U. and scored four runs in
each the seventh and eighth inn
1rgs Of their game to trim the
Cards 9 to l.
Playing without three of their
stars, Bob Considine, Larry
Phillips and Ivan Edwards, George
Washington'S netmen went down
20 their first defeat of the season
when Villanova scored over them
yesterday, 5 to 4. Staubly, Seidel
and Edge won in the singles for G. |
w. and Edge and Goldsmith
turned in the only doubles
triumph.
