The Washington times., 1936-02-27

All those dead heats photo
graphed by the electric eye at
Santa Anita this winter have just
about buried forever the age-old
contention of many horsemen
and players that there can be no
such thing as dead heat. Those
folks were fond of claiming that
two horses could not have heads
near enough alike :. carry them
at the same angle and run
with the same stride -. to make
a dead heat possible.
But Col. Matt Winnon e
stopped most of them cold by
naively asking, What is the stu
alton in the tiny fraction of a
second it takes one horse to pass
another? Can one object pass
another without their being alb
solutely even for the hairs
breadth of a second?" None of
the objectors had an answer to
the colonerS query.

Tonight
By GEORGE A. SIMPSON

BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON
The Gallaudet College baSketerS
departed at noon on three-day
trip that holds great possibilities.
The Blues play Rider College in
Trenton, N. j., tonight; the power
full and unbeaten Long Island U.
five in Brooklyn tomorrow night
and the College of Osteopathy in
Philadelphia Saturday night.
The Kendall Greeners will put
particular stress on the games
with Rider and Long Island U.
and, though their chances of beat
ing the latter are slender they are
not resigning themselves to defeat
by no means.
Hopes for Inspired Game
Coach Wally Krug hopes his
players have one of those ex-
ceptional nights where a team
misses nothing heaved at the
basket. That indeed, would be
distressing to Long Island U.
Even a defeat by an overwhelm-
ing margin would leave the Blues
some crumbs of comfort. They'll
gain experience by playing such
: q standout quint as the Black
birds, rebounding to their favor
next year. Every member of the
present Gallaudet quint will be
available for duty next year.
Starting Lineup Named
The Gallaudet starting lineup
will find AL Hoffmeister and Jim
Ellerhorst at forwards, Capt. Joe
Burnett at center and "Racy"
Drake and Merle Goodln at
guards. Substitutes taken along
are Norman Brown and Chet NC
Laughlin, forwards, and Reds
Collums, guard. Manager DAVID
Davidowitz also will accompany
the team on the trip.
Georgetown U. surprising basket
ballers closed their home season
with a victory when they downed
Penn State, "a to q, in an Eastern
intercollegiate League game In the
Tech High gym last night, thus
placing the Hilltop aggregation IN
a tie for fourth place.
The HoyaS won as they pleased
leading 20 to II at the half. Johnny
Frank put the locals ahead with
two field goals shortly after the
game began and then went on to
total IL points during the game
to become the individual star.
Schmarr Wins Title
Counting II points, Hermle

successfully retained his District
individual scoring honors as Catho-
lie U. stopped a hard-fightirg La

the C. U. gym last night.
Schmarr, who won the individ-
ual title last night, did not find
the basket with consistency until
the last few minutes OF play.
His 1876 total for the season is
three points higher than the Dis
trict record accredited to Tommy
O'Brien, G.. w. forward OF several
years ago.
Bernie Lieb, C. U. aptain, was
a big help to c. us victory and
Schmarr's record. Accounting for
12 points himself, the lanky star
nevertheless saw that Schmarr
had every opportunity to try for
points. c. U. led, 81 to II, at
the half.
