-. Loss to Plaid Hurts Hoyas.
CEORGETOWN'S hopes of winning
the Eastern intercollegiate Con-
ference basket ball title were all but
dispelled today, following a 1881
defeat by Carnegie Tech last night at
Tech High School. The victory sent
the Plaid to the top Of the conference
standing.
With their attack functioning well
early in the game, the Hoyas took an
1913 lead at the half, but the tower
ing Skibos were too good in the final
20 minutes, although Georgetown once
made up 1922 deficit and tied the
score at 28-all with only few minutes
to- go. At this point, however, the
Carnegie attack again got started, with
the result that the Plaid scored nine
consecutive points to clinch the verdict
With less than minute to 60.
