has varsity teams in COM
~ petition tomorrow in two
sports. One of the contests,
lacrosse, is scheduled here and the
other, track, at Charlottesville.
Washington College will be a
visitor at College Park to oppose
the Old Liners in lacrosse. Both
the Maryland varsity and fresh
man track squads are to engage
in dual meets with University of
Virginia teams at Charlottesville.
Not much doubt exists that Maryland
will defeat Washington College, nor
that it will lose to Virginia.
Maryland teams seem to be just
about taking possession Of the week
end, as far as intercollegiate COMPETE
ton among local colleges is concerned.
With two varsity teams and one fresh
man squad in competition tomorrow,
the Old Line ball team plays double
header this afternoon with the Univer-
sity of North Carolina. The TarheelS
are due here for regularly scheduled
game, and in addition to that the one
rained out at Chapel Hill last Saturday
will be played.
outside the contests in which Mary
land teams are to engage, only two
others are listed. American University
meets Loyola College in a tennis match
this afternoon and Boston College is
here tomorrow for a golf match with
Georgetown.
HARVARDS base ball team comes
Il 4 civ-f1av
trip. Monday it appears at Will
liam and Mary College, Tuesday it
plays at Virginia. Wednesday at Navy,
Thursday at Georgetown, Friday at
Maryland and Saturday at Pennsyl-
vania.
On the Harvard nine are several
members of last Falls foot ball team
DevenS. Ticknor. Mays, Batchelder and
Wood. Ticknor generally was picked
as aIl-American center. Wood is said
to be one of the most brilliant all
around athletes in the country. Wood
also is the No. ranking tennis player
in New England. Batchelder played
halfback in foot ball and defense on
the hockey team. Devens also played
halfback, as did Mays.
The Maryland lacrosse twelve should
not experience much difficulty against
Washington College. Considering the
big score run up against Georgia last
Monday, the Old Liners ought to have
fairly easy sailing against the men from
the Eastern Shore. The Old Liners did
so well against the Georgia twelve it is
unlikely that Coach Jack Faber will
make any changes in his lineup.
As a matter of fact, Faber's team
surprised him considerably by the way
it ran up points against Georgia. When
the GeoTgians whipped Virginia BY II
goals it was feared by Maryland that
it had grabbed hold Of red-hot iron
for its first game. and the one-sided
contest that actually resulted was more
OF surprise to Maryland than TO out
siders.
MARYLAND is likely to take a sound
w drubbing in track when it goes
against Virginia. 1t simply does
not have the material that graces the
Cavalier squad, and has not given the
time to training for track Tat Vir-
ginia has.
The two base ball games this after
noon between North Carolina and Mary
land should be just about a toss-up,
though either nine may win by rum
away score. All in all, there has been
little difference in the teams that have
represented North Carolina and Mary
them IN all branches of sport in which
they compete have been just about as
close as could be.
Some Of the finest competition on
South Atlantic fields in the last few
years have taken place between these
schools. In this year, for instance, the
foot ball game last Fall was hair
raiser and the basket ball contest last
Winter afforded more thrills than al
most any 10 games ordinarily.
Catholic University has signed George
Vlk Of Cleveland, Ohio, end on the 1929
and 1880 Notre Dame foot ball teams,

row. He will serve as end coach
Vlk, who has completed his academic
course at Notre Dame and will return
to South Bend for graduation in June,
comes highly recommended by the late
Knute Pockne.
