- GEORGETOWN and Gallau-
det this week end hit the
~ trail North for basket ball
games. Both leave to-
morrow, the former for set-to
with the Knights of Columbus
five at Brooklyn, N. Y, and the
latter to play Temple College of
Pharmacy at Philadelphia. Sat-
urday night Georgetown plays
Army at West Point and Gallaudet
meets La Sale at Philadelphia.
Both schools probably will have their
hands full. Georgetown is pretty sure
to find the K of c. five, as well as the
Army, a formidable opponent, while
Gallaudet is likely to have plenty of
trouble with both the quints it is to
face. Georgetown did not fare so well
here last week, but Gallaudet probably
previous contests.
No game is listed here tomorrow
night but Saturday both George Wash
ington and Maryland play on their
home floors. The COlOnialS entertain
Lynchburg College, which ought not to
be so very difficult. TIE Old Liners
have Virginia Polytechnic Institute as
their guest and may run into more
trouble than they expect.
NIAVY'S Saturday game is with Will
~ liam and Mary The Midshipmen
have hardly been consistent this
year, and may hit another Snag. They
are expected to have anything. but an
easy afternoon if they do not play bet
ter basket ball than they showed
against American University.
NaVyS basket ball material this year
possibly is not up to the standard OF
some recent teams. Bedell at guard and
Ioughlin at forward are brilliant, but
the other members of the squad do not
measure up to them. This in no way
disparages the play of the individuals
Of the Navy squad, but simply lndl-
Gates they are not up to the standard
of the men who have made up some
of the teams that helped Navy sweep
everything before it.
Parrack, George Washington forward,
Is about rs good a basket ball player
as holds down a job on any team In
South Atiantic section. Tall. strong
and fast he plays the game as If he
knows Just what it is all about. He
probably has had considerable eXpe-
rience. and should be outstanding in
the lineup Of any college five.
CYRACUSE. which was scheduled to
- play Maryland IN lacrosse on april
l6, has requested that the game
be postponed until next season. The
request was granted and Syracuse will
play at College Park on May in 1888
as the main attraction of the annual
Spring Field Day.
Maryland went to Syracuse last year
and Syracuse was booked to come here
under a two-year agreement. This
leaves the Old Line lacrosse schedule
with two open dates. There is a pos
sibility that the whole schedule may
be shortened, and if arrangements can
be made to shift the date of a trip
Maryland is to take to Georgia.
Ice hockey is proving a very pop
ular sport in Baltimore, a league Or
ganized there this year having created
a good deal of enthusiasm Several
clubs around Baltimore, Johns Hopkins
University and the University of Mary
land Dental School make up the league
On the Maryland Dental School team
are several chaps who had a good
deal of experience playing the game
in Canada and New England and they
are proving the best team in the
circuit.
A good many people regard ice hockey
as the fastest, most exciting thing in
the world in the way of sports, with
the possible exception of jai alai,
game played considerably in Spain,
Cuba and some of the South American
and Central American countries.
