= basket ball teams will be on
L the floor in games tomorrow
night two against each
other and the other two as hosts
to visiting quints. Gallaudet
jaunts over to Brookland to meet
Catholic University George Wash
ington entertains the Quanttco
Marines and Maryland has Loyola
College of Baltimore as its op-
ponent. All three contests are to
begin at o'clock.
Unless Catholic University has taken
a big brace since the holidays
Gallaudet probably will stand good
chance to defeat the Cardinals. The
Brooklanders should do a lot better
than was indicated they might by their
showing before they went home for the
Christmas vacation. Considerable I'M
provemert should be looked for, as the
G. U. foot ball season ran up to De-
cember IL, and, inasmuch as most OF
the basket ball players are on the loot
ball squad, there was little opportunity
for practice before that first game was
played. c. U. should be far stronger
in its remaining contests.
George Washington took the measure
of the Marines last week at Quantico
and certainly, if it could win down
there, that seems sufficient to warrant
an opinion that 1t should take the
game here. The Colonials have team
that stands out among the best in It's
history, according to some that have
watched 1t in action
Maryland has score to settle with
Loyola, as that school is one of the
few that took the measure OF Old
Liners last season. Loyola came down
to College Park and trimmed Maryland
by a couple of points In contest that
left nothing to be desired in the way
of basket ball thrills.
Tomorrow Maryland hopes to atone
for that whipping, although 1t reallzes
that Loyola still Is an exceptionally
strong combination.
A MEXICAN UNIVERSITY is to be
n host to two college qutnts this
week, Salem College on Tuesday
and St Johns of Annapolis on Thurs
day. The local school has started lts
schedule as If 1t should go through an
exceptionally good year. 1t wound up
last week with very successful trip
through Virginia and Is pretty sure to
enter its contests here with good deal
of confidence.
Besides the game 1t plays with Gal
laudet tomorrow night, Catholic Uni
yersity is to take part in two otner
contests Thursday night 1t hooEs up
with st. Joseph's and Friday with
Villanova. Not much Is known OF the
st. Joseph's five. nor OF Vlnanova'
either, for that matter, but II VnlanoVa
measures up in basket ball 70 wnat u
does In foot ball then 1t should oner
more than enough opposition to satisfy
the local school.
CEORGEToWN has only one game
~ this week, with the st. Johns
College of Brooklyn. The Blue
and Gray Is climbing back up the
basket ball hill, despite material that
does not seem to measure up to some
of former years, and may be expected
to put up stiff argument against any
team it faces.
George Washington, after its game
with Marines tomorrow night, does not
play again until Saturday, when 1t
meets Villanova, which remains over
for the contest after its meeting with
Catholic U.
One of the greatest battles George
washington put up on the basket ball
floor last Winter was with Vihanova, a
battle it won by point or two.
Gallaudet, like George Washington,
does nothing but practice from tomor-
row night until Saturday. Then It
goes to Annapolis to meet st. Johns
MARYLAND winds up It's week with
wi q trip to Lexington. Va, where
it Is to try conclusions with
washington and Lee on Friday and
Virginia Military Institute on Saturday.
Maryland won from both these schools
last season Both are said to be
stronger, Washington and Lee espe-
cially.
washington and Lee was good last
season, and IL has back many Of the
men 1t then used. The Old Liners have
their varsity and freshman teams OF
last year, barring one man, as this
years squad, and are very optimistic
of their chances for the season as
whole.
Wright is the one man now of the
squad as he has had to turn in his
suit until he gets back in good stand
ing scholastically. Maryland Is one OF
the few schools that have regulation
under which a player may be cut on
squad at any time that he begins
to show delinquency In his class work.
