QU|NTETS BATTLE

X 3.-After whipping prac-
\ tically everybody else in
the Southern Conference,
Duke and North Carolina will
turn their basket ball teams
loose in the tin can at Chapel
Hill tonight and let 'em fight
it out.
1t will be battle for the runner-up
position in the loop on the heels OF

have a perfect score with only one
game behind them.
Boxing will offer comparable
headliner with two strong Palmetto

History won't help dopesters much

Carolina State a team which the
Blue Devils previously had edged out
by a scant four points after piling up
a big firSt-period margin Duke,
further to confuse the experts, lost to
a Maryland team that in turn fell
before the Tarheels.

neWal of the foot-racing duel
between Glenn Cunningham Of
Kansas and Gene Venzke o.

Square Garden tonight with
prospects for capacity audi

The 26-event program begins al
$40 pm.
Despite the presence Of Olympian
record holders and national cham
pions in many other events, the Roo
man Wanamaker mile is the biz
magnet. The field will consist c.
Cunningham, Venzke, Glen Dawson
of Oklahoma, Joe Mangan of Cornel.
and Frank Crowley of Manhattan, but
1t seems likely it will turn into pri-
vate fight between Cunningham anc
Vengke.
The Penn star easily whipped Daw
son. Mangan and Crowley in the milo
feature of the Prout Memorial Game
at Boston last week. In grand condl
ton, Venzke ran his field into III
boards and won as he pleased. H
should give Cunningham a terrific
battle tonight though the Kansan de-
feated him consistently over the 8
furlong route last season. The winn'
may have to get down close
Venzke's indoor standard Of 4:l0.
Among the other features are :
60-yard sprint featuring Ralph Ms
calfe of Marquette, national sprE
champion, and Emmett TOPPING {

well, but was not physically in as

Winter, very little training. and con-

practice and competition. If Burns
trains the next three weeks and takes

afternoon at Annapolis in their an

grueling competition it had last night
with Catholic University. The Brook
landers some time ago defeated Navy
and this afternoons game should give
Q pretty fair idea as to whether or
not hard basket ball game affects
to any extent team that plays again
the next day.
Coach Burton Shipley kept his men
running in and out and eased up on
them as much as he could. Prac-
tically all the Maryland players seem
rugged enough to stand up under the
rather slender. Chase probably
played under a greater strain last
night than any other Maryland play

ASTERN'S basketers today
r are regarded as virtually
l. in with the public high
championship, following
their 66-45 win over Roosevelt
and the 37-36 triumph of Tech
over Central in yesterdays
games.
Eastern now is heading the struggle
for the flag, with five wins against no
defeats, with Central and Tech tied
for second, each with five victories
against two defeats.
Eastern is figured to take both
Western on Tuesday and Central on
Friday to win the crown. Tech and
Central still have hopes Of deadlock
ing Eastern, but this can only be ac-
complished by Tech defeating Roose-
velt, which is expected, and Central
downing Eastern, which would be a
surprise.
"HAT Central-Tech game yester-
day was a WOW. Conquered by
the Blue in their first game in
an extra period battle, 1925, ech car
ried the fight to the Bert Coggins pro-
teges from the outset and at the half
held 27-19 lead over its time-honored
foe. In the late minutes though, Gen.
tral rallied dramatically to gain the
lead at 34-33 as Johnny Mandes pot
ted one
Then followed five minutes Of as
wild and exciting basket ball as can
be imagined Finally after several
minutes failed to produce single
point. Josh Billings and Red Daily
found the hoop to give Tech 37-34
lead. and then, with half minute to
CO. Mario Gregorio tossed in for Gen.
ira from scrimmage.
Red DAILY, with 13 points. led the
Tech offenSe. but GregOrio was the
big shot of the game with II.
ASTERN outclassed Roosevelt all
r. the way. running up 10 points
before the Ruff Riders counted a
single marker. At the half the Lin
coin Parkers' advantage was 36l8.
Both teams used reserves literally
during the last half.
Harry Bassin and Dizzy Dean. with
II and II points topped Eastern's
basket bombardment. while Rex
Smith. with l2, and Spero Kolous,
with IL, were high for Roosevelt.

Besides these, Gallaudet goes over
to American University for basket
ball and the Maryland Freshmen
five meet the Georgetown yearlings
in a preliminary to the Georgetown

Both the Georgetown and Catholic
University events should be well con-

greater attention than the court
game, although it would be difficult to
find anything that causes more en-
thusiasm than a close basket ball

rivalry is rampant.
Georgetown expects to whip Buck

ball and the next day it is something

gait that indicates very little that is

show the kind of a team Bucknell
must beat if it wants to carry a
scalp back to Lewisburg.

teams are running in New York to-
night in the Millrose games. 1t is
possible for either of them to win,
but neither is likely to. Widmyer,
Maryland speedster, also is in the
dash event against the best sprinters
in the country.
CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY made a
u gallant effort to come back
against Maryland last night in
the basket ball game at College Park,
as it did last year to win, but 1t did
not quite reach the coveted height it
attained in the closing moments of the
1888 struggle. The Old Liners had
score of II to in their favor when
the first half was about half played,
but then the BrooklanderS began to
gain. C. U. cut the margin to 13 to
at intermission and at times it
seemed that it would catch up, but
it never could maintain pace fast
enough to overhaul the faSt-traveling
Marylanders.
1t really was great basket ball
game Maryland won by 33 to IS. per-
haps the best ever played between the
two local schools. Both teams Travelled
fast from start to finish and it was
rather remarkable the way they held
up. Chase of Maryland if ever he
played a great game, did so last night.
He was the trigger and the powder and
shot Of Maryland's offense. and his
defensive play was hardly inferior to
his offensive. Lieb of Catholic Uni
versity also was brilliant. In fact,
It was one of those games in which
there was scarcely less honor to the
vanquished than to the victor.

The Better Players.

ENE SARAzEN had few OBJ
servations to make along this
same line. 1.-THE fault" he said,
"is more with the younger players
than the old-timers. Many of them
will take up three minutes to study
and size-up a four-foot putt. They
will study it from every angle, walk
ing all around the hole. There is
only one way to see slope or break
and that is from behind the ball.
Why walk all over the green?
Il played with one of this kind a
little while ago and it took us nearly
four hours to get around. By that
time I was ready to dive off a tall
building. I had lost all interest in
the game. I asked him once to hole
a 10-inch putt with the ball in my
line. He lifted and marked the spot
and then fiddled away minute in
place of tapping it in. You'd think
they had discovered some new religion
that called for certain rites or what
ever they are"
The peculiar feature is that most
good golfers are fast golfers. Who
ever saw Bobby Jones take even one

Tales of a Wayside Tee.
~ NE of the most important
phases of golf, affecting the

This phase has nothing to do with
the golf swing. It has little to do
with the rules of the game.
But it has a lot to do with the
matters of courtesy and pleasure, and,
YOU might add, sportsmanship
THIS is the growing tendency OF
golfers to take more and more time
to play round of golf. to hold up
other matches, to fiddle and fuss
around without regard to any others
on the course.
This outbreak is not aimed at the
dubs or buffers alone.
I will give you an illustration from
the recent amateur championship
played at Cincinnati.
I waited to get the score OF one OF
the best golfers In the field that quail
fed. I waited a long time.
How long" I asked him, former
Walker Cup star, did IL take you 10
play that round?"
-Four hours and 10 minutes he
replied. I'VE had to be careful"
I asked Rudy Knepper a little while
ago what he thought of a certain
match in the woman's championship.
Il followed this only nine holes" "
he said, land that was all I could
stand. It took them 2 hours and Is
minutes to play the first nine. 1t
was an engineering proposition. not
a golf match. They would walk from
the ball to the pin, SO yards away,
to study every roll and break-which
meant nothing"
These are just two illustrations from
thousand I might mention. Coli,
apparently, is growing from game
into some sort of engineering, mathe-
matical science.
