for the second time in as many
weeks the University Of Maryland Is
likely to hold the center Of the stage.
A double header In base ball tomorrow,
q tennis match Tuesday, another ball
game and tennis match Thursday, and
its annual field day Saturday just about
give the Old Liners their biggest week
Of the year.
Tomorrow the Maryland ball team goes
into what is seldom seen in colleges,

State College as its opponent. This Is
the regular game scheduled between
the two schools and play-on OF tne
tie that they engaged in at Ralelgn

league ruling, each game will be only
seven innings. These are the only con-
tests here. but Catholic University goes
to Quantico to meet the Marines.
The only thing scheduled Tuesday Is

On Friday the only contest is the
tennis match which George WaShng-
ton has with William and Mary, but on
Saturday several events are scheduled.
Three of Maryland's varsity teams
are to be in competition the last Gay
of the week, the base bali team VIII
Catholic University, the track squad
with virginia an the lacrosse twelve
with St. Johns. In addition to these
games the Marylsh ders stage their thr-
feenth annual intkrscho lastics, In which
high schools and prep schools from
PENNSYLVANIA to North Carolina VIII be
entered. Indications are that the IN
terscholastic track meet should be one
of the biggest since the MarylanoerS
began to hold them back in 1910.
Georgetown's ball team goes up 70
South orange, N. j., to play Seton Han
College, while Gallaudet journeys out
to Catholic University to meet the
Brooklanders In q dual track and field
meet. Georgetown's nine Is travelling
at a fast gait and its play has been
such as to indicate that its invasion
Of New Jersey territory Is likely to be
successful.
The base ball teams representing
Georgetown and Maryland came through
yesterday in good shape, continuing
their successful string. The Blue and
GRAY took the measure of West Viz
pinia in q way that indicates 1t was
on a real rampage, or that the visitors
were far from as strong as the average
college nine. MARYLAND beat the Army
without any difhculty, despite the fact
that the West Pointers got two runs
across in the first inning.
Marylands lacrosse team won a sur
prisingly easy victory over Army, COM
plotting successful afternoon for the
the same number of points as the base
ball team, each getting eight, but was
scored against only once. The defeat
of Army by that one-sided score was
not expected, but the attack of the
Soldiers simply did not seem to func-
ton against the defense the Maryland
twelve put up, and several times the

There have been predictions that
college base ball Is on its last legs,
but the game at Maryland yesterday
did not indicate anything Of the kind.
The new stands just completed there
were packed to overlooking and prob
ably close to another thousand per-
SONS were standing along the fence lines
that extend along left and right field
foul lines. And there was plenty of
interest in the game, until Maryland
ran 30 far ahead, about the fifth in
ming, that the result was almost GER
1ainty.
One incident that happened yester-
day at the Maryland-Army game was
amusing and indicated something Of
the perversity which sometimes Is
found In college athletics. Some time
ago an opinion was expressed among a
small gorup to the effect that there
was considerable doubt as to whether
or not new base ball stands should be
constructed, as people we're not attend
ing ball games anyway. Yesterday che
of the persons expressing that opinion
walked up to one Of his friends and
remarked, why in the world don't you
build stands big enough to seat the
