RING SOPHS'
WILL BATTLE c. J..
Virginia Tech Makes Shifts
in Team for Bouts Here
Tomorrow Night.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

special Dlspatcn 10 me star.
~ LACKSBURG, Va, January 18.
x With sophomores predomi-
mating in the lineup as result
of five changes, following the
7-to-l defeat by North Carolina, Vir-
ginia Tech boxers have high hopes
of extending Catholic University in
the meet at Washington tomorrow
night.
Techs new array of leather luggers
has only one veteran, Freddy Hall,
a classy boxer, who is expected to
move up to the 135-pound class and
leave the 125-pound event to Bob
Callahan, a two-fisted puncher with a
wallop.
Every man who will face the Car
dinals is a sophomore, with excep-
ton Of Hall.
Techs probable lineup:
lis pounds-Charles Hull, Goshen,
Va.
125 pounds-Bob Callahan, North
Emporia, Va.
1856 pounds-Freddy Hall, Rich
mond.
145 pounds-Buddy Herman, Wash
ington, D. C.
155 pounds-Francis Dillon, Rich
mond.
165 pounds-willard Rothery, clar-
endon, Va.
ITS pounds-Mel Carmel, Phoebus,
Va.
Heavyweight-Frank Rankin, Reids-
vile, N. c., and Bob Zimmerman,
Alexandria, Va.
Veterans Displaced.
1.-TWO Tech veterans-Granville
Bussey, 155, and JEFF Brandon,
135, were replaced. Both
earned varsity nonograms last sea-
son, Bussey also being captain OF the
"a team.
Hall unquestionably is the classiest
fighter on the Tech squad of As
candidates. He went to the final in
the Southern Conference tournament,
dropping the featherweight crown to
Gordon Rainey, Virginia, by a hair
line decision.
Herman, q Washington boy, is just
starting his college ring career. He
is inexperienced, but fast and is
learning rapidly Hull, Callahan, Dill
lon and Rothery were mainstays on
the freshman team a year ago.
Hall is the only Techman slated
for action who fought against Catho-
lie U. at Blacksburg last year, when
Tech triumphed by score Of 81 to
~.
The Tech coach is Bill Porterfield.
former prep school champ and Tech
star, who succeeded Dick Esleeck,
coach for eight years.

BY DANIEL ]. FERRIS,

Secretary Treasurer, Amateur Athletic
Union.
n YEW YORK. January 18.-One
nj of the main reasons why this
should be a great competitive
year in amateur sports is the
inducement to our leading athletes to
gain places on teams to be selected for
foreign trips.
The A. A. U. has discarded its for
mer opposition to having our athletes
go abroad in a Olympic year and
there will be at least half dozen ex-
petitions to Europe, Japan and Asia
Minor
An invitation has been received from
Sweden to have the A. A. U. send an
other team of six or seven track men
across the Atlantic to compete in
Stockholm in a big three-day meet
next July and thereafter tour Europe.
Finland, which is not on the best OF
terms with Sweden athletically. has
asked the A. A. U. to send team OF
five or six track and field men to tour
their country, and the French A. A. U.
is anxious to have small team tour
France. Belgium and Switzerland.
Holland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary and
Norway also have made inquiries as
to whether the A. A. U. would send
any teams abroad this year.
Jewish Team to Sail.
~ TEAM of Greek-American ath-
~ letes will compete in Greece in
July. The international student
games at Budapest in August will at
tract some Americans and a large
SQUAD of Jewish athletes will leave
New York early in March to compete
in international games in Palestine In
April.
With the exception of the Jewish
team, the athletes who will be sent
abroad as members of these different
teams will be selected on the strength
of their performances in the National
A. A. U. track and field championships
at Lincoln, Nebr., early in July.
A team of IA swimmers will be Sc
lected following the A. A. U. swimming
championships next Summer to make
q tour of Japan.
The 1884 A. A. U. middleweight and
heavyweight champion weight lifters,
Steve Kratkowsky of Detroit and Will
liam Good of York, Pa. have accepted
the invitation to participate in dis
play of strength IN London the mid
die of March.

Richmond Formidable.

n ICHMOND'S boxing team does
II not measure up, comparatively,
with the North Carolina basket
ball quint. Richmond has lost the
only meet it has had, having fallen
before Duke, which is said to have
one of the best squads of NIT singers
in the South. Richmond's boxers
last season, though, were far better
than they were expected to be, and
the Old Liners had a difficult time
getting away with the meet.

|ATHOLIC UNIVERSITY'S basket
\ ball team left last night on
trip to North Carolina, where
it meets Duke University tonight and
Wake Forest tomorrow. The Brook
landers are likely to have their
troubles against the Durhamites, if
the latter have on their sharpshoot-
ing clothes as they did against Mary
land last week. Wake Forest should
not be nearly so difficult as Duke.
