thrilling. The above are all young
lads, growing up in Westby, or the
vicinity and all were fast and in very
good condition.
"Kiddie" Corr is one Of a large ia
mily of athletes, his father being a
well known welterweight, of many
years experience, now located at
Tribune, Saskatchewan. The lad not
only gave a fine exhibition with his
opponents, but he also punched the
bag in an exhibition number and de-
monstrated his ability at shadow
boxing, initiating the poses and &C
tons of Jack Dempsey, with very good
effect.
Semi-Final Match
The semi-final match was between
Lloyd Schultz, weight 142 pounds,
and Clifford Heron, weighing 146
pounds. This battle was a serious one
from the start and Schultz received
a well earned decision at the hands
of the judges, Stewart and Moe; and

FACULTY advisers Of the public
l. high schools, meeting at Central
High yesterday, failed to adopt a
proposed new rule which would have
enabled February graduates from the
four-year course to continue in &C
tive participation in athletics until
the end of the school year. Central
will be hard hit by failure to adopt
the rule, as it will lose Cullom and
Fisher, dash dependables from its
track team. Cullom also will not be
available for base ball. Playing Short
stop for Central last Spring, he was
looked upon as just about the best
performer on the team.
Attending the meetings yesterday
were these advisers: Morrow, Cen
trail; Mathews, Western; Crandall,
Business; Smith, Tech, and Wallace,
Eastern.
With all the District colleges ex-
cept Georgetown and all the Wash
ington high schools except Eastern
represented, the George Washington
u. track meet tonight at Convention
Hall is figured to prove the best IN
the history of the event. Eastern
lacks training quarters. Central has
high hopes of gaining top honors
among the schoolboys, Tome 1nsti-
tute being regarded as likely to fur
nish it the most stubborn opposition.
Nearly 200 competitors from Wash
ington and more than 100 from out
of town are entered.
GoeltZ, Maryland AggieS' pitching
dependable, has left the College Park
School.
Virginia scored an upset by de-
2 feating Georgetown, 38 to 19, at baS-
ket ball last night at Charlottesville.
One regular was missing from the
Hilltoppers' lineup because of scho-
lastic difficulties. Several members
of the track squad also have been
lost, at least temporarily, because of
class room deficiencies.
Georgetown College Journal in
connection with the re-engaging of
Fred Nielsen as foot ball coach at
the Hilltop, says:
His success with the men on the
gridiron this past Fall, together with
his accurate knowledge Of the new
rules, Is sufncient proof to attest
to the fact that the move in holding
him at Georgetown Is both wise and
popular among the students.

Basket Ball Tips
BY SOL METZGER.

In foot ball, a game better under
stood by the public than basket ball,
certain types Of forward passes are
planned which bring two eligible
men on the line of the throw, one
nearer the passer than the other.
The result Is that most any pass
thrown on line is caught. Pitts bas-
ket ball offense sometimes has a
like percentage against error in its
favor.
Take this set play as an example.
