NAVY BASKET TEAM
HOST IN TWO TILTS
Penn State, W. & M. This Week
Will Put Middies on Edge
for Clash With Armv,

for Clash With Army.
srecial Dispatch to The Star
A NNAPOLIS, Md, February s.-The
= Navy basket ball team will meet
William and Mary here Wednesday
and Penn State on Saturday, the
games being the last on the schedule
except the Army contest, to be played
here the following Saturday.
Encouraged by the victory over
Maryland last week and by the big
score piled up against Columbia,
though the game was dropped by two
points Navy will endeavor to round
into final form in the games of the
week and be at the acme of its strength
for Army.
Though the Navy still is well ahead
in the series, it has lost the last two
games and is anxious to get on the
winning side again. The records indi-
cate that the service teams are Of
about equal strength.
Several Of those who met last No.
vember on the foot ball field in Phil
adelphia will meet again as basketers.
Among them are the Navy's Bill In
gram and the Army's Monk Meyer.
OF high interest in Saturdays do
ings at the Naval Academy will be the
boxing match with Virginia, the sole
evening attraction. Virginia now
stands three to two in the series with
the Navy, and the latter, after its fine
victory over Syracuse Saturday, is
hopeful of evening matters. The hero
at Annapolis these days Is John Ed
wards, rangy 165-pounder from Flor
ence, Calf, sophomore, whose victory
over Ord Fink, intercollegiate cham
pion at the weight, was the turning
point in the Nays victory over Syr-

Lash's Performances Give

N YEW YORK, February 8-While
M the mile still is the classic"
VI distance in American foot
racing. each major meet brings
| further indications that Indiana's Don
Lash started something when he
raced to a 2-mile record of 1884 at
Princeton last Spring.
Up to that time Paavo Nurmis in
door standard of 1882 was considered
almost unapproachable, and 9:15 or
thereabouts was fast running for an
American. Ray Sears held the ma
tive American record of 9:074.
| Now, since Lash has demonstrated

In the Sugar Bowl meet at New

ond fastest 2 miles ever run by an
American, 9:03.5, to defeat Lash.
Glenn Proves Supremacy.
At THE Prout memorial games in

off 9:16.4 over a slow board track,
and Saturday night in the Millrose
meet another Hoosier, Tommy Deck

This not only was the second best
2-mile race ever run by an American
indoors, but Deckard never had ap-
preached that speed and had no pace
making assistance.
Lash sprinted into second place,
but could not wipe out Deckard's big
lead.

on his characteristic finishing kick"
to win by 6 yards from his old rival,
Gene Venzke. Meanwhile Archie San

OTHER highlights Of the meet,
watched by capacity crowd of
$4,000. were the pole vaulting of Sueo
Dye of Japan, the hurdling Of Sam
Allen of Oklahoma Baptist, the sprint

and the defeat of Eddie OBrien, Syra-

The coaches week end huddle over

offensive got the large share of any

Three of their four major proposals
for rules changes-involving lesser
penalty for the illegal shift, the for
ward pass and the grounded punt
definitely were pro-offensive.
The fourth, concerning forward pass
interference, while favoring the de-
tense, was only to be expected in

Louis Not Versatile.

I OUIS is not an all-round fighter.
He has piled up record and built
q reputation by knocking over some
frightened fellows, but in virtually
all those cases they stuck their necks
out, letting Joe get firm stance and
swing at wide-open target.
Pastor only too apparently was
eping the style with which Max
Schmeling licked the so-called Brown
Bomber" But Pastor failed to throw
as many right-handers as Schmel-
ing did. The pictures record less than
half a dozen by Bob in the whole
first nine rounds.
The best description of the setto
was made by one of the boys who
said it "looked Like contest between
Step'n Fetchit and Fred Astaire."
OF course, We must assume that
Louis was trying his best. If he
was, he has no championship caliber;
and, if he wasn't. it still goes, for no
one Of championship class would give
anything but best effort.
Not Properly Developed.
I OUIS is not properly developed in
his fighting. He is still an anna
teur when it comes to inhghting, and
he isn't even good amateur when it
comes to going out and getting a
fairly clever boxer who gets on his
bicycle. Everything has to be made
to order for Joe to show the punch
that had all the boys raving about
him as Dark Destroyer" Brown
Bomber" "Dynamiter" and other ter
rifying titles. Otherwise Joe is Just
another flghter-cool, a good hitter,
game. think, but not able to take it
any too well.
Any talk about return match be-
tween Louis and Pastor, after this
poor exhibition, is not likely to create
any great excitement along Cauli-
flower Row.
Joe Louis has lost his threat as
menace" to the heavyweight title.
You know, think one of those fel-
lows who fought in one of the pre-
ains would have taken Louis. That's
Eddie Blunt, who kayoed Jack Tram
NELL.
guess Jimmy Braddock must think
he's a pretty unlucky fellow not to
have got Louis. Joe would be a soft
touch for Jim, and, as for Schmeling,
Louis never will be able to beat him.
Maybe now his handlers will begin
10 teach Joe how to fight so that he
can adapt his style to the occasion
required.
