be in order.
Plenty of seasoned material Is avail

TIME indoor athletic season
for local colleges Is vlr-
tually at its end.
u This week George Wash
ington meets Lafayette in a
swimming meet on Wednesday,
Georgetown has basket ball
game with Loyola Friday and
Maryland boxes Penn State Sat-
urday. Next week Georgetown
is to play Carnegie Tech in bas-
ket ball and Catholic University
entertains Western Maryland in
a boxing meet. These events
are all that remain, SO far as
dual competition is concerned.
Maryland will send it's basket ball
team to the Southern Conference
tournament to be held Friday and
Saturday at Raleigh and a track
squad to the Southern Conference in
door championships at Chapel Hill
March 10.
Considerable local interest should
be taken in the Catholic U.-Western
Maryland boxing meet, while general
concern throughout the South At
lantic section will center on the bas-
ket ball and track competition of the
Southern Conference.
Despite interest in the few events
that remain, greater interest now is
being expressed in Spring foot ball
practice by those in charge Of ath-
letics in the various schools than in
anything else.
Plans have been under way for some
time to have the various squads re-
port for workouts just as soon as the
ground Is in such shape that 1t can
be used for this purpose. Several of
the schools expected to have their
squads report today, but the snow
storm seems TO have completely
blocked this.
1t should not be long now, though,
before the foot ball squads are out,
and the various squads, base ball,
track, lacrosse, and so on, are prac-
t.cing for the usual Spring schedules.
Even heavy SHOWS in this region at
this time of year seldom are of very
long duration and soon the warm sun
will make athletes forget that SHOWS
are a part of every Winter.
Maybe March is going to come in
like lion, but go out like a lamb.

"HE tournaments now being held
by the two big athletic con-
ferences in the South are not
being looked upon with any great
favor The Southeastern Conference
has voted to discontinue practically
all its efforts along this line, and
there is strong possibility that the
Southern will follow suit.
At the meeting of the Southern
Conference last week sentiment gen.
orally was sounded and it was rather
astonishing to find that back in the
mind of practically every representa-
tive was the thought that the tourna-
mentS are not serving any particularly
good purpose.
At the next meeting of the confer
enCe, in December, the matter Of
tournaments will be brought up and
sifted thoroughly, as to whether it
seems for the best interests Of all con-
cerned to continue them. And the
chances are good that some of them
will no longer be held.

Venzke of Pennsylvania, who held the

With both men seniors in school

a trip to England this Summer, a
third and perhaps decisive meeting
with Cunningham never will be held
unless present plans are changed.

another was tied, as the meet was

THE meeting of the Southern Con-
i ference last week probably was
the most harmonious that ever
has been held. Not Only that. but

there was a greater disposition on the
part of the conference membership to
consider sympathetically the problems
of each institution. In fact, it was
about the only meeting of the con-
ference at which the general feeling
was that the welfare of each separate
institution was valuable to the con-
ference welfare, and that the efforts
of the conference should be to build
with the cooperative spirit upper
most in the thought of all. The
Southern Conference apparently has
discarded entirely the policy of the
''devil take the hindmost."

Poor Fight Predicted.

CARNERAs poor condition for a
u hard. fast fight causes many
critics to predict that it will be
the worst heavyweight championship
night ever staged. If these predictions
hold true Camera, should he win, as
expected. will have a hard job con-
vincing fans that he is the best heavy
weight in the world, and Max Baer
will establish precedent by being the
first challenger in the history of the
game to enter the ring favorite to
win the title.
Pr1ma Carnera has been badly ad-
vised from the day he took up fighting
as a livelihood Leon See talked him
into believing that his opponents were
hano-picked in advance and that VIC
tory was certain in every case. Primo
must have the same opinion of Lough-
ran or he would not have agreed to
an appearance so early in the year
against an opponent without a knock
out punch. Then again the money he
will get out Of the fight is hardly what
a worlds heavyweight champion would
demand against a man who figured
TO be other than rank outsider to
lift the title.

SPARR|NG MATES

BY JOHN ]. ROMANO.
YEW YORK, February 26.-
Primo Camera is fortu-

Y nate indeed That Tommy
a Loughran's honesty is
above suspicion. Otherwise
Wednesday nights contest would
be viewed with considerable sus-
picion by those who have
watched the giants haphazard
method Of training.
Punched around freely by his SPAR
ring partners, Carnera appears like a
big dub. 1t is a different story in
Loughran'S camp. He has found time
to play around with society folk,
something he dearly loves to do, but
the work he has put in for the fight
will find him properly keyed up, men,
tally and physically, for the best effort
OF his waning career.
Carnera rightly assumes that Lough-
ran cannot hurt him. But Tommy
can annoy him considerably with
lightning like iabs and slippery foot
work and If the contest were limited
to 10 rounds the Philadelphian would
be given better than a 3-to-l chance
OF outpointing his larger rival.
