COLLEGE STARS.
"FLUNK" EXAMS
BY CHICK KENNY

Final examinations, expected to
wreck the hopes of local major
college athletic rosters for the COM
ing year. failed to do much damage
according to final checkup on re-
ports Of the semester's work.
A total Of nine athletes have
been given the pink slip by the
deans at George Washington,
Maryland, Catholic University and
Georgetown. No information was
received from American U.
Georgetown suffers the most,
with four stars departing, while
Catholic U. and George Washing
ton report two casualties each, and
Maryland one, although no infor-
nation was received concerning
the Terrapin frosh.
GRID ACE LOST
Two football players were lost
by the HilltopperS. They are Harry
BUS" Gauspohl, sensational Sopho-
more end who was booked for
regular duty on the varsity eleven,
and Pete ChurinSkas, q sophomore
lneman who was heavily counted
upon by Coach Jack Hagerty as
first class reserve material. Other
HoyaS to get the ak are Harry
Leber, substitute last year on the
basketball team, and Leroy Green,
an important cog in Jim Multi
gan's track squad.
Catholic University loses two
frosh linemen, Bill Stewart, a
guard, and Joe Zubritsky, a tackle.
Both failed in second semester
work. The Cards may lose the
services Of John Matukaitis, sopho-
more fullback, who is reported to
be heading for Holy Cross because
Of varsity baseball which the
Brooklanders do not support. Ma
tukaitis proved himself to be an
excellent grid prospect, featuring
a passing arm and keen display
Of fancy ball carrying.
The rumor about the c. o.
campus to the effect that Charley
Moutenot and Leo Kane, halfback
and end, respectively, had with
drawn from school, was Squashed
by Athletic Director Dutch Berg
man.
IN SIMMER SCHOOL
However, no less than 16 c. U.
players are attending summer
school sessions making up back
work, including Rocco Pirro, regu-
lar tackle, who is earning credits
at Syracuse University.
George washington reports the
loss of Bill Hoagland, a guard,
and possibly Bogdan Nicksick, half.
back. The latter may return for
the late summer school session
starting August 20, but school Of
ficials believe that he has def
nitely decided to withdraw from
school.
Among Colonial gridders at
tending summer school are Tom
Grady and John Tonkavich,
backs; Duce Keahey, tackle; and
Bob Nowaskey, end. Joe Conner,
former Roosevelt High basketball
star who played with the Colonial
yearling five last year, also Is in
summer school.
TRANSFER RUMOR
One transfer Is rumored on the
Buff and Blue campus. That is
Ed Wilamowski, sophomore full
back Of some promise who is re-
ported to be heading for West
Virginia University.
Out at College Park, Milton
Mulitz, former Tech High school
star and regular on the varsity
basketball and lacrosse teams of
the University of Maryland for
the last two years, has been lost.
MULTI was a guard on the floor
team and played a defense posi-
ton on the lacrosse team.
There is a possibility that he
will apply for reinstatement in the
fall, but will not be eligible until

State Road, Bureau Public Roads
Officials Inspect Highway Today

Arthur b. Hale, chairman of the
State Road Department, and a
party of other state road and
Bureau of Public Roads officials
were in the city yesterday, and
today are making an inspection
of the Overseas Highway bridges.
The group, which includes, be-
sides Mr.. Hale, Charles d. Snead,
and H. j. Morrison, who are con-
nected with the Bureau of Public
Roads in this district, with head
quarters in Montgomery, Ala
bama; E. c. DeGarmo, fifth di-
visional engineer of the State
Road Department; and B. w.
Bateman, S. r. d. commissioner,
could not be contacted for a state
ment on their visit here. They
were registered at the Hotel La
Concha.
Local conjecture is that they
are down for a preliminary in
spection trip regarding the ex-
tension Of the Overseas Highway
over the concrete railroad via
ducts from Big Pine Key to Key
West. Present highway bridges
Tor that area are wooden and are
ten years old.
1t has been estimated that the
cost of the extension will be less
than million dollars, and that
the State Road Department and
Bureau of Public Roads will com
bine their funds to secure the
total needed.
Z. c. DeGarmo recently wrote
The Citizen stating that the State
Road Department is considering
the advisability of making the ex-
tension, but said that it would be
several months before the depart
ment would make a definite re-
port.
