RIDERS
J|TTERY FOR TILT.
Loss of Redman Hits Blue.
Roosevelt Is Thinking
of Tech DebaCIe.

Jealous to recoup prestige that
withered in its unimpfessive debut
against Eastern, Roosevelt's baseball
team today was primed to serve as
something akin to guinea pig in
determining the strength Of Central's
dark-horse entry in the public high
school championship chase.
It was an altered Central lineup
which was to trot on the filed against
the Rough Riders at Roosevelt Sta
dium at BIS o'clock, with the ab-
sence Of Jack Redman. regular first
baseman, necessitating several shifts
Redman, rated one Of the finest
flelders in the interhigh crop. left
school yesterday to join the Navy.
Sends Outfielder to First.
Coach Jack Ray planned to pull
Lorenz Zimmerman in from right field
to cover first and send Dick Smith,
current catcher and second team all
high outfielder last year, back to the
outfield. Kenny Bransdorf was to be
inserted behind the plate to handle
Dizzy Derzerne.
Confident their jittery moments
against Eastern. which walloped the
Rough Riders, $50, were due chiefly
to inexperience. Coach Herman Litt-
man of Roosevelt was to intrust the
pitching burden to Jack Lyon or
Danny Boothe. Hymie Perlo, who
promises to develop into one of the
smoothest athletes ever developed at
Roosevelt was slated for catching
duty.
Central entered the game with min
of the knees. The Columbia Heights
outfit twice has trounced Roosevelt in
practice sessions, but disturbing an
established lineup on the eve of its
series start hardly is conducive to en-
thusiastic outbursts.
Eastern Plays WI.
Equally enticing was game between
Eastern, defending interhigh cham
pion and recent conqueror of Navy
plebes, and Washington-Lee High at
Ballston, Va, with seven-game VIC
tory streak of the Little Generals in
jeopardy.
Launching the season with what
Coach Buck Richardson termed fair
club" Washington-Lee owns 1917
triumph over Eastern and has cut q
wide swath in scholastic teams In this
sector in retaining an unblemished
record.
Other games today were to find VIII
son clashing with Georgetown Prep at
Garrett Park, Md; Western feuding
with Montgomery Blair at Western
Stadium, Bethesda Chevy Chase bump
ing into Maryland frosh at College
Park and George Washington High of
Alexandria invading Fredericksburg,
Va, to collide with Fredericksburg

foursome of Burke, Alnwick, Neumeyer
and Bertucci will run against first
year teams from Penn State, Penn,

bia. Pitt and Temple
All Of the aforementioned schedules
are according to daylight saving time.
Pressure on G. U. Nine.
Minus the pressure Of maintaining
a winning streak, GeorgetoWn's base
ball team should resemble an entirely
different nine as it resumes action on
its home field tomorrow against Tenn
pie. The Hoyas ostensibly "choked
up" in their last two games and only a
three-run rally In the eighth inning
against Penn State on Friday enabled
them to carry an unbroken streak into
the Maryland game
Although the team Is averaging
eight runs per game. some of those
expected to provide the heaviest artil-
lery are hitting far below they 1897
average. Most notable of these is
Harry Basin, who last year hit .526 in
IL games, yet has only three hits In
16 times at bat this year for a puny
mark Of .l87.
Tommy Heating and Smitty Nau
also have proved rather weak with the
stick, Heating showing only a .l42
average compared to last years 1853
and Nau a .l33 against 1872 in 81.
Perhaps with the pressure of, these
boys will step to the plate with their
old-time abandon and start hitting
as Of yore.
Maryland to Visit Navy.
Maryland's game at Annapolis with
Navy tomorrow should be worth going
to see as the Terps are capable of
playing heads-up baseball and the
Middies have one of their better mines.
When one studies the circumstances,
Maryland's record Of victories in
II games is pretty nifty, especially
considering the caliber of the teams
which beat the Black and Gold. Duke,
winner Of double-header at Durham,
was Southern Conference champion
last year, and Rosy Waugh, the Will
liam and Mary pitcher who turned
Maryland back with one hit, is reputed
to be big-league material.
Maryland has looked bad in only
one game, the 1876 trouncing it took
from Michigan. Inspired by the
Georgetown game, the Terps may be
hard to beat from now on.
st. Joseph's was expected to prove
Georgetown's second golfing victim Of
the year at Congressional today, but
George Washington's tennis team still
was seeking its first win as it engaged
CatawbA on the Columbia courts.

Bv GEORGE E. HUBER

Best news this week is the first catch
Of hardhead in the bay. A phone call
from Capt. Harry Woodburn of Sol
onions informs Washington anglers
that the fish are being caught over in
the Honga River, Just about 10 days
earlier than usual. Spider crabs for
bait can be purchased over there, but
hardhead will take shrimp if you want
to bring that with you.
Other news this week IS the hint of
bluefish arriving at Oregon Inlet.
One gets caught here, another gets
caught there. and before you know it
you are going to have them all over
the place down there. No big catches
Of sizable fish have been made except
by commercial men away out, but it
is only matter Of days before the
blues will be where you can get at
them.
And all that is so much better than
last year when the cold storms ragged
around and the fish stayed away
Already this season more channel
bass have been caught than were
taken the whole Of last year. and If
blues make only half a show the guides
will be smiling once again.
A bit further up the coast, at
Wachapreague on the Del-Mar-
Va Peninsula, trout hauls are
increasing daily.
Last week A. G. H. Mears went out
with two other anglers and brought
in So weakfiSh or squeteague as they
are called over there. The yellow-fin
tide runners are increasing in weight,
too, and by mid-May should be at
their height. incidentally, some of
the boats over there are equipped for
Gulf Stream fishing in search of
marlin, and following the lead set by
their neighbor to the north, Ocean
City, may produce some results.

Rod and Stream

Roanoke, says to wait until May for
the fat mountain trout. He said that
experiments in three States-West
Virginia. Pennsylvania and Vermont
show that fish caught in the early
spring weigh less than they did when
placed in the streams.
Other trout news comes from
the Big Levels area of the
George Washington National
Forest in Virginia.
Two good streams, st. Marys River
and Kennedy Creek, which were closed
for two years, have been opened until
May is. Barbless hooks or artificial
bait Is required. and creel limit of
10 per day larger than I inches has
been set.
These regulations are a bit diff
ferent from the State laws, which
have no size limit and which allow 20
fish to be taken each day. A State
license is required, plus special
permit obtained from patrolmen sta
toned at the mouth of each creek.
There is no charge for this, but the
anglers are expected to report the
size and number of fish caught and to
furnish at least one stomach from
those caught.
This Is to help in an expert
ment being conducted to de-
termine what constitutes de-
sirable stock in streams where
food conditions are known.
Campfires along these streams are
discouraged and can only be built by
first obtaining permit from district
rangers located at Buena Vista
Staunton. Covington, Bridgewater and
Edinburg.

ARREST MAN FOR
 THEFT OF LETTER
Postal Authorities May Enter Local Case==Checks
 Were Cashed

Theft of 8 letter containing two checks made out to another per- son is charged to William Hoff, 39, of 28 Park place, who was ar- rested yesterday by Detective-Lieu- tenant William F. Pollard. In city court today, Judge Edward Mascolo gave Hoff a continuance to April 2 under bonds of $1,000. A plea by counsel for smaller bond was denied.
 Free on bonds in the same case is Charles Chaney, q, of Center street, also charged with theft. Clancy is charged with having cashed the checks, which totalled $4740.
 Postal authorities have been mo- tified and may enter the case, since 1t is alleged that Hoff went to the post office general delivery window and claimed mail which was not addressed to him.
 The theft is alleged to have talk en place last November. Investiga- ton started when Waterburian failed to receive two checks from an insurance company. Inquiry to the company brought the response that the checks had been endorsed with his name and cashed.
 Chaney was arrested early in the year, but Hoff was note located url- til yesterday.

SEC OPERATES

New Haven, Conn, March 17- (UP)-Acting for the first time in Connecticut, the securities and ex- change commission today obtained a federal court perpetual injunction restraining New Britain brokerage firm from obtaining secret and un- disclosed profits"
 The firm, Gordon & Co.,, was charged with buying and selling securities of its clients without in forming them correctly of the prices at which the deals were consum- mated.
 The SEC worked on the case in cooperation with the securities divi- sion of the state banking depart ment.
 The federal regulatory agency charged the Gordol4 firm "pur- chased or sold for the account of the customers securities at stated prices when in truth and in fact the defendant had sold the securities at a higher price or purchased the securities at lower price, thereby obtaining secret and undisclosed profit"
 The perpetual injunction was is- sued by U. S. District Judge Carroll Q. HinckS.

RUSSIA MOVES

Invites World Powers to Conference - Will Sup=
 port CzechOslOvakia

Moscow, March 17-(UP)-Maxim Litvinov, foreign commissar, today affirmed RuSSia's determination to stand by her treaty obligations to Czechoslovakia and invited other powers including the United States to confer on practical measures to check aggressors.
 His invitation did not include Ger many, Italy or Japan.
 "It may be too late tomorrow" said Litvinov, but today the time has not yet all gone if all states. particularly the big powers, take a firm and unambiguous stand on the problem of collective salvation"
 In 8 formal statement, Litvinov said that Russia would stand by Czechoslovakia and would stand by all other obligations. If Russia's invitations to a con- ference were rejected or proved fruitless, Litvinov said, the Soviet Union stood ready alone to support her obligations.
 The United States was among the nations invited to confer. Litni- nov envisaged a meeting at Geneva or a similar suitable place, and it was said that invitations would be forwarded today. Litvinov made his statement at a press conference. American news paper correspondents had suggested several days ago that he make clear the Russian attitude ir1 the present crisis.
 Persons close to Czehoslovakia dip lomats said that Czech authorities recently received definite assurance that the Soviet Union would honor its treaty of mutual assistance in event that Ccechoslovakia were at tackled.
 In his statement Litvinov said:
 "The Soviet government is ready to participate in collective actions which would be decided upon jointly, to check further development of aggression and eliminate increased danger of new world massacre"
 Tt may be too late tomorrow (con- tinued Litvinov) but today the time has not yet gone if all states, par ticularly the big powers, take a firm and unambiguous stand on the problem of collective salvation"
 Regarding Austria he said:
 "The violence that has been per- petrated in Central Europe had created an indubitable menace, not only to the II countries now con- tinguous to the aggressor but also to all European states and not only to the European ones."

 Cambridge, Mass, March 17. = (UP) - Albert Bush nell Hart, dean of American historians, declared today that another European war is inevitable. ''The United States will not enter into any war unless it is clear that our national existence is threat ened," the white bearded liar yard professor-emeritus told the United Press in an interview.
 He believed that Hitler, dreaming of 8 new and greater German empire, will seize Czechoslovakia perhaps within four weeks--at-aleast within four months"
 "No military force that can be raised could prevent Germany from taking Czechoslovakia," he said. "The Czechs could not hold out four days. There would perhaps be one battle - @ showdown"
 Poland Is Next
