A LTHOUGH Maryland gen.

A LTHOUGH Maryland gen.
" orally is regarded as one
of the three or four best
basket ball teams among
the 16 entered in the Southern
Conference championship tour
nament, opening at Atlanta to-
day, the task of retaining the
title it won last year is expected
to prove too tough for the Old
Liners.
Victory for the TerrapinS in
1881 proved quite a surprise to
the dopesters familiar with the
proWess of the contending
quints, and they assert the
College Parkmen can't hope
again to be so favored with
the breaks.
While Maryland's champion
ship last year was fairly earned,
the team prevailed by slender
margins in a majority of its
engagements, and with the
"quick-death' plan of play
prevailing one loss means elm
ination.
With all five of the regulars
who put Maryland at the top
of the heap again available,
and with added strength, no
tably from Vincent, who filled
in so capably at center when
Norris was hurt, Maryland con-
tinues an exceedingly formid-
able machine, but it is due to
encounter sturdier opposition
than last year, for several of its
foes are credited with vast i'm
provement.
The deciding tilt of the tour
ney is scheduled for next Tues
day, and close followers of the
sport concede Kentucky, 1881
finaliSt, as good a chance as
any of again reaching it.

~ ILOXI, Miss, February 26.-
- With Clark Grifith's morn
ing cakes and sausage today
arrived the information from
Pitcher Robert Burke, the southpaw,
that he was scurrying to training
camp to forget everything and go
to work.
Which means, of course, that Sir
Robert, the recent and rebellious
recalcitrant, finally has agreed to
Grifhth's terms, which no doubt
had been changed slightly since first
offered.
However, Bob will be here late
tomorrow or early Sunday to COM
plete the early squad. Then there
will be II athletes in camp, includ-

RAIN MAKES SLIDE
AT PLACID UNSAFE
Four-Man Sled Races Again
Postponed-Ski Jumpers
Compete Today.
BY ROLAND ALSTON.

By the Associated Press.
r AXE PLACID, N. Y, February
12.-The bad weather jinx,
l. active here all Winter, hov-
cred over Lake Placid and
the third Winter Olympic games
again today.
Rain, which swept down on the
Adirondacks yesterday, brought
about two postponements of the
four-man bobsled races, one of
the big features of the games,
and right now it looks as if they
won't take place until Sunday.
The first two heats, originally
scheduled for yesterday morning.
were put off first to today, then,
as the rain continued, to tomor-
row or Sunday.
This second poStponement of the bob
races had the effect of jamming the
schedule for the end of the meet. Four
major championships are yet to be de-
termined: The four-man bobsled. the
ski jump, winner to be acclaimed Olym-
pic champion; the pairs figure skating,
and hockey. The skating and hockey
events can be run off on the artificial
ice OF the arena.
Not Apt 20 Stop Ski Jumps.
1t was predicted last night that the
heavily packed snow Of the Intervales

persistent rain, and that the jumpers
will go through their stunts this after
noon as scheduled. Yesterday 81 skiers
went down the slushy 6O-meter slide
and the Olympic hill below and one

failed to accomplish anything
worthwhile since 1908, when Mel
Sheppard triumphed in the
1,500 meters and Johnny Hayes
captured the marathon at Lon
don, while no Yankee runner
ever has accounted for the
5000 or 10000 meters events.
Of all the Olympic events
there is none so grueling nor
soul testing as that over the
route of 26 miles 385 yards, and
for this reason it has an appeal
exceeding that for any race
where the toll eXacted is so
much less severe. 1t practically
is a foregone conclusion that
the United States this year
can't uncover any one capable
of competing on even terms
with the rugged running ma
chimes developed abroad, but
there is good reason for believ-
ing a visit to the Pacific Coast

tance stars of the OlympicS in

I'm never very thrilled at wrestling

things in the game which no one wants
to enlighten me upon. I'm sports nrst

utes later is broken with gusto and

Nor can the 1CreStHng JoikS make
it clear to me iDhy running in and
out of the ring, humping and cuff
ino one another on the chin should
be part OF either Graeco- Roman
or catch ch-ds-catch-cdn tcrestlino.
Neither can see what the acrobats
and freak men of the circus are doing
on the mat If the honest purpose Of the
game is to decide winners. They make
good vaudeville acts, but rarely good
wrestlers. And if the game is to survive
it will need more good wrestlers, good
enough to topple Jim Londos, who, in
one year, wrestles more men and makes
10 times more money than Frank
Gotch, a great, true champion, did in
IA years of meeting giant Turks, Rus
slams and the best America could offer
in the days of syndicateless wrestling.
Maybe 1 am just as wet as ever.
And 1, and not wrestling, am talking
sideways. But I do want to 60 on
