WESTERN TOSSERS
DEBUT TOMORROW
Ambitious Central Nine Foe
in Title SerieS-Both
Teams Improved.

Wv WESTERN, the last of the pub
M lie high school base ball
" v teams to get action In the
championship series, will
make its debut tomorrow afternoon
against Central in the Eastern Stadium
at $3.50 o'clock.
Central, which opened its series play
with ga victory over Tech last Fri
day, will be hot after another win. The
boys in blue have visions of capturing
the title With Emmett Buscher on the
mound and other capable players on its
roster, Central doubtless has an i'm
proved team over last season.
Western, however, also is believed
stronger, having more seasoned players
than in 1880. Clarke, who showed
creditably against the Maryland fresh
men a few days ago, may go to the fir
ing line for the Georgetowners.
For the most part the diamond meet
ings between Central and Western in
recent years have been real battles,
though Western has not won since 1927.
Central was a 11-2 victor last season,
but both the 1929 and 1923 games went
IL innings before the Blue trtumphed
Western won the 1927 tilt, to 6.
Aside from the Central-Western en-
counter, two attractive ball games are
listed for District scholasticS tomorrow.
Gonzaga and Georgetown Prep, arch
rivals, will have it out at Garrett Park
and Tech will go to Baltimore to engage
Baltimore Poly.
CentraIs quarter-mile relay team will
compete tomorrow in the Penn relays
Nayior, Ditzler, Price and Smith will
carry the blue. 1t will mark the first
outside competition Of the outdoor cam
paign for the Central tracksters.

ATHLETICS A PART
OF NEVIS SCHEME
School Head Tells of Plans
for General Advancement.
Mills Packs Punch.
BY H. c. BYRD.

BY H. C. BYRD.
A TENOR of optimism for the
" building of Greater
n Georgetown" was the key
note to the annual Varsity
&c" dinner at the Maydower
Hotel last night. Not only did
this bright outlook for the future
encompass strong athletic teams,
but brought into its fold the
theory of athletics for all, more
and better equipment for this
purpose and a natural growth
along all lines of university de-
velopment.
It was Rev. w. Coleman Nevis, pres
1dent Of the university, who broadly
touched on the whole Of Georgetown's
future-touched on that future in
broad idealistic way that was inspiring
to all those present, graduates OF otner
universities as well as Georgetown.
rather Nevis told something of what
he desires to do for Georgetown, and
in his words were a meaning that went
far beyond material values that George
town may derive from possession OF
fine group of buildings. In Father
Nevis mind the whole thought Is to
erect a structure that will help in build
ing those links which bring into closer
unity all mankind and maintain funda-
mental ideals on, which the progress
Of humanity is based.
Will Keep Base Ball.
"Rumors have gone about that we
expect to drop base ball." said Father
Nevis, but instead we expect to re-
tain base ball as an intercollegiate sport
We expect to retain all those things
that are worth while and intend to
change nothing Of what we consider to
be best IN our traditions. We shall
adopt no new methods unless we be-
lieve, after mature thought, that they
are better than that which we already
have. We are going to construct new
tennis courts, new hand ball courts and
we have plans for a new gymnasium,
now our greatest need. We also have
plans for other buildings, as we grad
ually move our professional schools to
the Hilltop, but we shall not depart
from what we have established as solid
in our educational life. We shall adopt
nothing that we consider to be a fad
or a passing fancy, but always shall
maintain an attitude of conservative
progressiveneSS."
Senator Robert M. La Toilette, princi-
pal speaker OF the evening, delivered
a brief but inspiring address on the
values derived from athletics, not only
by the individual, but by the Nation.
1t was his opinion that in no other
field are so many of the fundamental
factors that create success to be found.
He said that 1.-The ideals that inspire
our young men in their competitive
athletics, the yirile courage that they
show, are the great necessities of our
Nation, and I hope that these ideals
and this courage will become just as
much a part of our national life as it
Is OF our athletic fields"
Wallace Wade, director of athletics
