versity- Maryland basket
i ball game and Duke
Maryland boxing meet in
me Ritchie Coliseum at College
Park probably is regarded as the
highlight OF the week end in
sports among local colleges, but
other competitions are listed
which should provide plenty OF
real interest.
GeorgetoWnS basketers entertain
Buckneu in the Tech High gymna-
sium, Catholic University has Vir-
giinia Military Institute here in box
ing, Gallaudet and American UniVer-
sity play basiet ball in the latter S
gym. Maryland meets Navy at An
napolis on the court, Georgetown and
Maryland trackmen compete at New
York and George Washington has a
swimming meet with Lehigh at the
Ambassador pool.
Outside the double bill at Mary
land, Catholic Universitys boxing
meet is pretty sure to draw the big
gest crowd. There is not much doubt
about the interest people generally
have in that sport. The Brookland-
ers, though, unless they show i'm
provement over their form against
Virginia Tech. are likely to have hard
shedding. The meet should be fairly
evenly contested, though, irrespective
OF the outcome.
Georgetown should win from Buck
nell if its basketers are in good shape.
THE Blue and Gray has played some
brilliant basket ball and will be a
heavy favorite.
YEITHER Georgetown nor Mary
IN land is likely to crown its ef-
forts at New York with vic
tory, as both will be in their first
meet, while those against whom they
are to run have competed several
times. Maryland's four is sure to feel
the loss of Warren Evans, anchor
man, who is i'll from grippe Ed Quinn
will take his place. although essen
TALLY he is a sprinter rather than a
quarter-miler.
Georgetown is to run against
Rutgers and ST Johns of Brooklyn,
while Maryland is to meet Holy Cross,
Marquette and Pittsburgh. probably
the three fastest teams in the country.
Maryland is biting off a big hunk
IN trying to whip Catholic University
tonight and Navy tomorrow. The Old
Liners probably had no idea that c. U.
would be as good as it is when they
scheduled the game for the night be-
fore the contest with the Sailors.
There is not much doubt that, as much
as it would like to beat Navy, Mary
land will throw all it has into the
game with c. ..
vt IS said that Duke has two of
the best boxers in the whole Sec
ton in Leroy Sides in the 145-
pound class and Raymond MatuleWiz,
3 freshman who will fight in an eX-
hibition in the 175-pound class. which
Duke will forfeit as far as point scor-
ing is concerned. Ted Mann, who
handles Dukes publicity work, says
that MatuleWiz is the best looking
college boxer he ever has seen. Jack
HerbSleb, who has just become eligible
for varsity competition at Maryland
and who has never taken part in an
intercollegiate bout. will go in the ring
against the Duke freshman.
Sides is the star Of Dukes team
and is picked to win the Southern
Conference championship.
IA FORMER Eastern High School
~ boy, Bernie Lieb, is furnishing
the spark which MAKES the
Catholic University basket ball chariot
20. Without him the BroOklanders
would not have anything like as good
q standing as they now have, and his
work from the start OF the season
has been brilliant. Lieb is the key
10 c. us defense and offense and
that Is not said with any intent to
belittle the performances Of his team
mates.
Jimmy Mulligan, now coaching
tsack at Georgetown, laughingly tells
q story about a relay team on which
he once ran in Philadelphia. Multi
gan says: "You know we had a great
combination. as I am a Catholic,
while the other three members were
q Jew, an Irish Protestant, and a
colored fellow. and VIC represented
Baptist Sunday School
Catholic University's basket ball
team hardly measures up to Multi
qans story, but at that it Is made
up Of two men of German descent,
two of Irish, and one Jew. And they
are a group of mighty fine chaps. as
well as exceptionally good basket ball
players.
