Bergman Awaits Meeting.

A THLETIC DIRECTOR BERGMAN
~ said last night that he did not
care to say anything much about
the possibility of holding the meet un-
til after the meeting of the board. 1t
was his feeling that the meet should
be resumed, provided a way could be
worked out that would give fair promise
OF financing it adequately.
Actually there seems no good reason
why the c. U. indoor meet should not
take care of itself financially. 1t would
seem that such an event, provided too
much were not expended in guarantees,
should be self-supporting. Certainly
the Brooklanders in such venture will
get the unqualified support of all the
local newspapers, and high and prep
schools as well as colleges would hail
with delight an announcement that the
meet again will take place.
MO BASKET BALL games are
scheduled tomorrow night, but
three are slated Tuesday. Catho-
lie University comes out for another
game on its home floor, Western Mary
land being scheduled as the visitor,
while American University entertains
Eampden- Sidney.
George Washington will go against
another great five when it journeys to
New York Wednesday to play st. Johns
of Brooklyn. Over a period of many
years st. Johns has had good court
teams, and the Colonials are sure to
have their hands full and maybe more
than full. George Washington plays
Long Island Thursday night, but may
not find that very difficult.
Duke co0es here Thursday to play
Maryland for its second appearance of
the year, having lost to Catholic Uni
versity before the holidays by points.
incidentally, the Durham five is one of
the most popular five that plays here.
1.-TWO Maryland teams take a trip
over the week end the boxing
to meet Virginia Military Insti-
tute Saturday night at Lexington and
the basket ball to play Washington and
Lee Friday night at Lexington and Vir-
ginia Polytechnic Institute Saturday
night at Blacksburg.
Catholic University's freshman team,
as well as the varsity, is to play at Loy-
ola College, in Baltimore, Saturday
night. This makes two games for the
flrst-year five for the week, the first
being with the Maryland freshman
team Tuesday.
Georgetown goes to Pittsburgh and
MOrgantown Friday and Saturday
nights. respectively, for two games that
should afford it plenty of opposition.
The games are with Carnegie Tech and
West Virginia The Blue and Gray
should win from the latter, but is like
ly to have as much as 1t can attend to
against the former.
~ATHOLIC UNIVERSITY is plan
ming an expansion of it's athletics
for the remainder of the year.
Not only is it contemplating the re-
sumption Of its indoor meet, but it will
add more activities for its intramural
program and carry out full dual meet
schedule for its track team. Athletic
Director Bergman says that the plan
now is to build up intramural sports
along with intercollegiate and if any,
thing lay little more emphasis on in
tramural during the Spring months.
A NORTHERN foot ball coach yes
~ terday in discussing foot ball in
the big schools of New England,
and especially in mentioning the Yale
Princeton game. said that it is doubtful
If Princeton could have selected bet
ter combination to teach its foot ball
squad than Fritz Crisler, head coach,
and Tad Wieman, line coach.
This coach remarked: These two
men fit perfectly into the Princeton
scheme and, incidentally, as long as
they are at Princeton and the coaching
system at Yale remains approximately
what it has been there will be only one
story to be told about the result, and
that will be one-sided. And in think
ing along that line, you can bet that Is
realized nowhere better than. at Yale,
hence the contemplated shifts at New
Haven"
