By GEORGE A. SIMPSON

by OEOhOE n. SAnk OON
Saturdays dual meet with Ran
dolph-Macon CVaD College will
furnish Coach Teddy Hughes
some evidence as to the strength
of his Gallaudet College track
team. The meet, scheduled for
the Kendall Green field, will start
at 2:3O o'clock. \
The three athletes most impress
sive in the daily workouts are
George Walnoha in the field
events; Andrew Maccono in the
distance events and James Ray
hill in the dashes.
Walnoha, Coach Hughes points
out, is excelling the best marks
of Johnny Ringle in the discus,
shot-put and javelin but is not
an all-around performer like
Ringle, who was lost through
graduation. Ringle was also pro
ficient in the running events
whereas Walnoha doesn't partici-

Hoyas Make Merry

For the eighth time in as
many springs sons, yes and
fathers too, of Georgetown will
gather tonight to pay tribute to
the achievements of their ath-
leteS, to review the years sports
attainmentS and in some cases
to honor men who years ago
passed from the university's
portals.
Tonight's &C" dinner, held at
the willard, makes another
chapter in an interesting series
Of social occasions started by
Lou Little in 1925 and brought
up to date by his successors at
Georgetown. No gesture in the
entire history of Georgetown
has been so instrumental in
keeping alive athletic and col
legiate associations generally, as
these &C" dinners.
Little probably brought the
idea to Washington from the
University of Pennsylvania,
which annually fosters an "Old
Timers night, naming the
outstanding athletes in the va
rious sports. Anyway it was
and is a splendid means Of &C.
menting associations started DUR
ing college life at Georgetown,
as attested by the increasing
attendanceS as the years have
sped past.

Kos Feature
Fistic Show
in Alex.

Fistic fans demand action and
that's what the Alexandria Day
Nursery served their patrons in
Portner's Arena in Alexandria,
Va. last night with less than 1900
on hand. Many fans stayed home
or spent the evening elSwhere be-
cause the card, when first an
nounced, lacked an outstanding
boxer.
And many of these today learn
ing of the five exceptional bouts
offered regret they were among
the missing. Two knockouts, both
taking place in the first round,
electrified the fans and sent them
home earlier than expected.
Sammy BraunStein, Marine
welterweight,. floored Ray Bowen
in the first round with terrific
right-hand smash flush on the
jaw. Apparently, Bowen hadn't
expected Braunstein to try to
shoot over q kayo wallop so sud-
denly. Ray went down for a
count of nine, arose but was in
great distress and Braunstein
finished his man by whipping
over another thunderous right
handler.
Short Stops Bout
AL FienSter, light heavyweight
champion of the Carolinas, won
by a technical knockout over
Baker Boy" Billy Schwartz, Of
Alexandria, in the first frame.
Fiemster, with hair slicked back,
dropped Schwartz with a right
to the jaw. Billy, always coura-
geouS, regained his feet but was
floored again and Referee Char
lie Short sanely stopped the un-
even contest.
The fans booed long and loud
when Referee Short awarded
the palm to Nick Antonelli, Mo-
hawk Club scrapper, over AL
Martin, Baltimore featherweight,
at the termination of eight
rounds. There might have been
room for doubt as the match
was close and possibly draw
might have been better received.
Martin piled up plenty points
in the first four rounds, hitting
Antonelli often but inflicting lit
tie damage. Antonelli, much the
gamer and forcing most of the
fighting, came along fast after
the fifth round, particularly the
sixth and eighth. Short gave as
his reasons for favoring Antonelli
because Martin was holding in
the last few rounds.
Contest Voted Draw
The contest between Billy
Strickler and Sam Finazzo. Of
Baltimore, was voted draw,
though Strickler deserved the
edge. However, Referee Short
must have been swayed by the
brave battle put up by Finazzo,
who was outweighed l3 pounds.
At that, Finazzo repeatedly made
Strickler miss, often evading
Strickler's punches and counter
ing beautifully.
Chuck Henderson and Marino
Marini fought to draw in the
opening four-rounder.

A Missing Face

There is ever a saddening
touch about annual conclaveS
of any nature, because always
there is someone missing who
in other years has made such
gatherings distinctive.
For instance, John D. O'Reilly,
who, until this college season,
has seemed to be a fixture at
Georgetown. will not be at the
head table tonight. Mr.. O'Reilly,
intimately known to Hilltoppers
as "John-O," is now in his ma
tive heath of Boston. being
diSSociated with the Blue and
Gray.
No Georgetown man lives
who isn't familiar with the
great track and baseball teams
which "John-O" has developed
over a long period at George
town in the days before the
main idea of college athletics
seemed to be only about foot
ball teams.
To US the high light of
O'Reilly's career at Georgetown
came at the "G" Club dinner
of a year ago, the last time he
was to beam on the guests as a
member of the coaching staff.
Two ovations that night were
distinctive, that to Father Vim
cent McDonough, who drew a
prolonged applause, and that
to John D. O'Reilly, whose
hand" was equally as gener-
Gus.
AS we listened to the spon-
taneous ovations which we
thought would never end, we
thought to ourselves:
"The two most popular men
at GeorgetOwn-it's a pity they
are not better friends"

PAS0SS'
But-and here's where the
ficklenesS of John Fan come
in-up to noon yesterday, not
q soul had mentioned to lis
what a helpless team Philadel-
phia has in view of Washing
tons IS to 7 plastering admin
istered to the Mackmen in the
Quaker City Monday afternoon.
Up to noon today we heard
no local lambasting of the AS
because they dropped two in a
row to Washington, the latest
Mackian spectacle being a 7 to 4
defeat at the hands of the
Griffs.
What was it that Shakespeare
said about the good a man does
being buried with him and the
evil living afterwards? Anyway,
it has often occurred that we
home town fans are ever a
little too critical of our failures
and too seldom boastful of our
triumphS. After such a whip
ping as we took Sunday, it must
have required a lot of pluck
to go out there and turn the
tables on the naughty AS, par.
ticularly when the latter took a
three-run lead in the first in
ming.

games without little trouble.
In Mondays contest in which
Manager Johnson's gang won, Is
to 7, those home runs, doubles
and triples were truly cIouts of
beauty while yesterdays 7 to 4
victory with Prof. Monte Weaver
and Big Fred Marberry starring
on the mound was another of
those affairs where the GriffS
handed their most despised op-
ponentS a dose of their own med
icine in regards to heavy hitting,
strong pitching and the like.
The two losses sustained by the
AS, incidentally, brings out a lit
tie point which promises to be a
most interesting one this year. It
is the fact that they are not near
as formidable a looking club when
Robert Moses Grove and George
EarnshaW are out of the box.
Different Team
This is brought out even more
emphatically by the manner in
which the team conducted itself
with the two mentioned stars out
of the box during the past two
days. They were different team.
that's all, and the Griffs helped
themselves to pair of victories
as a result.
Yesterdays triumph was even
more gratifying because Prof.
Monte Weaver pitched such great
ball for seven innings. Although
Big Fred Marberry had to come
to his rescue before it was all
over, Weaver's performance made
it most apparent that he's going
to be the help expected this year.
Monte had Jimmy Foxx, AL
Simmons, Max Bishop and even
the redoubtable Mickey Cochrane
bothered all day at the plate yes
terday, and it was only because
he tried so hard to pitch winning
ball that he weakened in that
seventh when Marberry SO ably
came to his rescue.
Big Fred's entrance, by the
way. was another of those dra-
matte affairs. There we're two
on base, one run already in and
one out when he stalked to the
mound. Roger Cramer was at
bat and the score was 6 to 4 in
the Griffs' favor.
Marberry enacted his usual
stalling tactics before finally
pitching. Almost before there
were three sighS, Cramer popped
to Cronin and Dykes grounded
to Bluege ending the threat. In
the next two frames Fred retired
the AS without a run although
Heving singled and Simmons
walked in the ninth.
WaIberg Hit Hard
The Griffs climbed all over
Rube Walberg, Connie Mack's
starting pitcher, to take an early
lead. In the first inning, Myer
singled. Manush doubled, West
singled, Judge walked and Harris
singled for two runs.
In the third, Cronin homered
over the right field wall, Harris.
Judge and Spencer singled and
Weaver doubled for three runs,
while Vests triple and Cronin's
infield out counted one more in
the fourth.
Walberg braced at this stage
and became very stingy with his
granting of hits and runs and it
was not until the ninth that
Manager Johnson'S men scored
again. This time it was against
Ed Rommel, knuckles ball artist
Connie Mack sent to the box af-
ter Coleman had hit for Walberg
in the eighth. Bishops error
gave Manush a life, and after
Vests infield out moved Heine
to~second, Cronin's single to cen
ter scored the big leftfielder with
the seventh and last Griff run.

HURLS
TODAY IN
DEBUT
By GARRETT WATERS


The Griffmen are home once
more today to begin a three
game series with the Boston Red
Sox, which they hope will get
them in such a winning mood
that nobody, not even the AS
and Yanks, will be able to stop
them.
To get in this triumphant state
Manager Johnson's men realize
they must play as hard against
the Red Sox as if the YankS or
AS were the opponents because
of the trouble they have expe-
rienced in downing the Beaneat-
ers so far this season.
The faithful fair sex, by the
way, who annually look forward
to the Fridays which have games
scheduled, will not get break
this week as the comm Fish
Day" is to be an off day.. This
comes about because the sched-
ule makers took one game from
this series for the now famous
opener of the season week or
so ago.
Burke HurlS Today
Therefore the first Ladies Day
will not come until next week,
or Friday, April 20, when the
Philadelphia AS will be the op-
position. But who wouldn't
rather wait until that date after
all? The AS certainly will offer
more in entertainment value
than the Red Sox, how about IT,
gals?
Bobby Burke is to be given the
mound assignment in today'S en-
counter with the Red Sox. Danny
MacFayden may be the Red Sox
hurler. At any rate, an interest
ing tussle should result, as the
Griffs will be out to keep pace
with the AS and Yanks, while the
Sox will be striving to get WIN
ming. something they haven't been
doing since the start OF the season.
Following this Red Sox series:
which has games tomorrow ana
Saturday before its close, the
Griffs will have the AS as their
guests Sunday prior to leaving
that night for New York for three
important contests against the
New York Yankees.
It's a Question
Who will do the twirling against
Connie Mack's mighty men Sun
day is still a question. Manager
johnson hopes to manipulate alS
selections in such way that
either General Alvin Crowder or
Fred Marberry will be aVallaoie
to start. Maybe Lloyd Brown Will
have rounded into form by that
time. If he has johnson VIII
undoubtedly place him On the
peak, as he's always been good
against the AS in the past.
johnson, incidentally, is follow
ing out his plan announced
week or so ago, that every pitcher
is subject to mound duty whether
as a starter or relief man. In
the contests to date Monte
Weaver, General CroWder, Fred
Marberry and Carl Fischer have
gotten both starting and relief
shifts and the remainder of the
teams hurlers are to be called
upon this way alSo-when the
occasions arise.
Cary Reynolds, who was alb
sent from yesterdays contest at
Philadelphia because of bad
cold, may not get back into &C.
ton for another day or so, it
was the intimation from club
headquarters this morning. Carl
probably will be rested until he
is completely relieved of his cold.
which could become quite serious
if forced to perform right now.
However. if he is feeling better
than yesterday, Manager johnson
may put him back into the
lineup. In the event he con-
tinueS on the sidelines, Dave Har-
riS and Sam Rice will alternate
in right field until his return.

timely and if Payne was right,
they would cause considerable
trouble for Central, was realized.
Western, with Payne pitching
anywhere near the brand of base
ball he pitched for five innings
yesterday, looms as dangerous foe
to the pennant hopes of Eastern,
the other favorite in the series.
