A WIDELY varied list of ath-
" letic events is scheduled
"A today and tomorrow for
followers of local colleges.
Base ball, tennis, lacrosse and
track contests are to take place,
with some of the competition
likely to be of high order.
Two base ball games are booked to-
day. Villanova at Georgetown ana
Harvard at Maryland. Harvard made
its debut here yesterday against George
town. A ball game also is listed TO-
morrow, but is to take place at New
York, with Georgetown and New YORK
University the contending mines.
University of Maryland plays its
third lacrosse game of the year, enter
tanning Western Maryland College. The
Old Liners were victorious in contests
with Georgia and Washington College,
but are expecting sterner opposition TO-
morrow.
Catholic University takes its track
SQUAD, both varsity and freshman, out
to Maryland tomorrow to meet the Old
Liners in two dual meets. The BROOK
landers have high hopes OF opening
their season with a victory, while Mary
land, on the other hand, Is anxious TO
get the big end of the score, as 1t al
ready has suffered three defeats in dual
affairs. This probably will prove the
closest meet ever held between G. U.
and Maryland, with Maryland's chance
for victory resting largely In the neio
events.
Georgetown's tennis team Is in New
York today for a match with New York
University, and tomorrow stops at Villa
nova on its way back for match there.
George Washington jumps to New YORK
tomorrow to meet the New York U.
racketers and American University
meets Maryland.
A GOOD many people expect the pole
"A vault record for the Penn relay
carnival to fall as a result Of the
competition in the annual games this
Spring, largely because of the remark
able ability of two men, Colyer OF Cor
nell and Sutermeister of Harvard. The
record as it now stands is held by Fred
Sturdy of Yale and stands at 13 feet
6la inches, made two years ago.
However, both Colyer and Sutermeister
have exceeded that mark several times,
and thrown against each other, under
stress, almost anything in the way OF a
new mark may be recorded. In an in
door meet last Winter Colyer cleared
the bar at Is feet 1914 inches, and in
another meet tied with Berlinger of
Pennsylvania at Is feet 6A inches.
Sutermeister has consistently gone above
the present record, although he has not
done as well in open competition as the
Cornell man.
In all probability the meet will bring
together the greatest field of pole vault
ers that have ever competed in this
event at Penn.
TWO Navy teams open their Spring
L sports schedule tomorrow, the
track and field squad against VIII
liam and Mary, the crew with Columbia.
The track meet is at Annapolis, but the
crew has gone to New York to race on
the Harlem. Navy expects to win the
track meet rather easily, but, on the
contrary, looks for Just about as tough
opposition in the Columbia crew as it
could find anywhere.
Navy looks for the best track squad
in its history. Coach Thompson has
for che last three years been building up
that sport, and now seems to have it on
a par with other sports at the academy.
Some Of the best men the Navy has had
will be in competition tomorrow, and
generally the people at Annapolis are
expecting very successful year.
