Yet list of games that will

performers that an important
season is ahead and we'll
balanced team must be developed
in order to wade through the
campaign successfully.
Such is the basketball psy-
chology at Tech High School this
year. An unusual program, to
say the least, but one that will
probably work wonders with the
team, once the campaign gets
into full swing.
Faces Important Tasks
Before the actual schedule is
discussed, it must be said here
the Tech machine faces an i'm
portant task to get itself into
smooth working order-the sort
that resembles a champion.
Only Reds" DAILY, center, is
back from last years regular
team, although John Billings,
forward, and Al Gillem, guard,
1928 reserves, who were used
in several games in the latter
part of last years interhigh
series, are at hand.
Those missing from the Manual
Trainers lineup this season in
clude such luminaries as Fred
Thomas, Jim Reed, and Freddy
Nau, guards; Tom Diversion, CEN
ter, and Waverly Wheeler and
Bernie Reichardt, forwards.
These youngsters kept the
Boyd-coached team in the thick
Of many a battle during 1928
and the several campaigns before
that, and Coach Boyd, although
he won't admit it, will feel the

the approaching season.

But let's listen to Coach Artie
for a moment:
well get along even though
the squad is small, inexperi-.
enced and light. DAILY, GilIem
and Billings form a fair nucleus,
while 1 believe there are several
promising players in the cOIlec-
ton of candidates now in prac-
tice."
Milton MULTI, guard, is one of
these newcomers. Jimmy Roland,
115-pound forward is another,
while Andy Farrell, forward, and
Charles Wiles, another forward;
Joe Miller and Tom Ward, guards,
comprise the collection of likely
looking prospects.
Now, about the schedule.

hasn't made as many friends
for racing as it might, in view
of some of the odd things that
have been going on during the

The charts of some of the

ticularly when compared with
previous charts of Identical

brazen for even the turf neo-

heard no little criticism by
patrons who the year around
spend no little at the turnstiles
and through the betting cages.

MD. j. RESTING
FOR CAME

Older football coaches often
rest their teams for several days
before big game.
University of Maryland, appar-
emily, is taking a leaf from the
notebook of the old-time grid
mentors, for the TeTapins, fol-
lowing that wonderful victory
over strong Washington and Lee,
have decided to rest until Mary
land tackles Florida in Tampa,
Fla, Saturday afternoon.
The Maryland squad will leave
for the scene of Saturdays game
tomorrow night without having
had a hard practice session since
the Old Line 33-to-13 victory
over w. and L., last Saturday.
Yesterday, the Terps warmed up
a bit, but that was all.
With Bucky Buscher calling
plays, with Earl Widmyer and
Joe Crecca clicking, and with
the Terp forward wall playing
the brand of football of which
it is capable, the Terps are given
a good chance to win over Florida,
which on Saturday won over
Auburn, conquesor of Georgia.
The Florida team just began
to click against Auburn, so that
the coming Maryland-Florida
contest looms as one between
two teams which suddenly have
found themselves.
A squad Of about 80 players
will make the long trek to the
west coast of Florida town for
Saturdays game.

Georgetown is now in its fifth
week of practice and expects to
be in great shape for the opening
game of the year, on December
6, against the Green Terrors of
Western Maryland. The George
town-Terror contest will be played
in Tech High gym and will be
preceded by a game between the
Georgetown Frosh and Tech
High.
Although a starting lineup for
the Western Maryland game has
not been chosen to date, it is
likely tht Hargader and O'Connor
will start at the forward posi-
tions, Connors at center, and
Carolan and Crowley at the
guards. This lineup will average
6 feet 11a inches in height.

Among old football men 1t is
generally admitted that on the

for bringing the Colonial players
to top performance against
Kansas on Saturday afternoon.

indicated on the eve of an import

WORLD SEED COLLECTION
HAS STRANGE SPECIMENS

Strange seeds from many lands,
ranging from orchid seed which is
dust so fine it can scarcely be felt,
to the double cocOnut which is foot
in diameter and weighs up to fifty
pounds, are found in the collection of
foreign seeds of the Division of For
eign Plant Introduction of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture in Washington. OF the 289
different seed families in the world
219 are represented in the collec-
tion. ,-E
Among the seeds is that of the
travellers tree of Madagascar. These
seeds are about the size of coffee
kernel and are covered with a silky
fringed coat of bright green. The
seed of the bird of paradise flower is
black, but half of it is covered with
brilliant scarlet plume.I The Aus
tralian eucalyptus has small brown
seeds, shaped like tiny boomerangs.
Watermelon seeds from Russia have
broken pattern on the outside
which often resembles the face of
a monkey. A queer tree seed from
China has five wings on the body
and three small wings and two large
ones growing from the top. .--.
One of the most interesting of the
seeds is from Java. 1t is the seed of
a sort of squash which climbs to the
top of the tallest trees. The fruits
open and scatter seeds an inch in
diameter with crescent-shaped
