Colonials, was wearing a broad
smile today for he has learned

nights game with Wake Forest

N. W., which starts at BIS
o'clock. Fenlon. one of the speed
lest men on the G. w. team, has
been out with the FLU"
Another bit of news that
brought joy to Pixlec was the
reporting Of Ed ROmig, one of
the freshman basketball aces Of

at guard for Central High,
failed to report for the varsity

on his feet. He'll see action
tonight.

Colonia1s will idle until Tuesday
when the fast Rider College
quaint, of Trenton, N. j., will be

Expects Tight Game
Chick Gagnon, basketball coach
at Catholic University, is looking
for strong opposition when his
Cardinal basketerS entertain
Coach Wally Krug's Gallaudet
tossers in the C. U. gym tonight
at 8 o'clock.
'T am confident my boys
will come through with a vic
tory over Gallaudet," admits
GagNon, "but it won't be with
out the fiercest kind of a bat
tle. If we can keep COsgrOve
and Ringle under close guard,
the task won't be so hard"
It has often been said that
Gallaudet is handicapped when
ever playing on regulation size
floor but Catholic University will
learn differently tonight. The
Kendall Greeners seem to be able
to go in any quarters.
