DeIhuds, Determined to Play

Heurich LOOP Into Mess

Cooke presented proof to the Dis
trict A. A. U. at the time of the
suspension of Keyser Thomas and
Wheeler, who joined the Heurich
Brewers professional five following
their election from amateur circles,
that many other local amateurs"
were ineligible due to professional
baseball activities.
Rather than take action which
virtually would cripple other teams
in the Heurich loop, however, Presi-
dent Joe Aronof revealed the A. A.
U. decided to take the word of play
ers involved that they would avoid
such tactics in the future.
Spokane Minus Travel Permit.
The Round Tables may have
started out from Spokane an en-
tirely legitimate team" said Aron-
nof1, but by participation in that
unsanctioned tournament they dis
qualified themselves. Further, they
have failed to present their A. A.
U. travel permit, and any amateur
team journeying more than Is miles
from home must have one.
IF Delaware g. Hudson thinks
more of competing against the
Round Tables than in retaining its
amateur standing here, that's their
business. We have our rules to en-
force. Any players who perform
against that team will be suspended
and ran rnuoiy uoN1 efo Ji,,r ov11

year"
Bob Mcdonald, president of the
ieurich Amateur League, has de-
cided to go ahead with the series
regardless of the outcome of the
meeting. The Round Tables have
been brought here at considerable
expense, and he insists it is too late

AL Iperstein and Cronin
Foce Unbeuten Foes
In Meet With Army

A pair of the most talented ring
men ever developed at the Univer-
sity of Maryland, Benny Alperstein
and Frank Cronin. will swing for
the last time in collegiate competi-
ton tomorrow night at College Park
when the Terps. Southern Confer
ence champions, jeopardize their un-
blemished record against Army S
undefeated Eastern intercollegiate
titleholders.
Alperstein, mild hammered
lightweight, owns the distinction of
having captured a pair of Southern
Conference crowns in addition to a
brace of national intercollegiate
titles, while Cronin, in his only sea-
son OF socking, won the Southern
Conference 155-pound title last
week
Cronin Gets Late Start.
Cronin's. only boxing sin was
waiting until his senior year to re-
port to Coach Heinie Miller. He
laced on his first gloves in Novem-
Der, but despite his inexperience has
won eight bouts and remained un-
defeated in perhaps the toughest
division in collegiate scrapping.
Also a crack track athlete, having
been the mainstay of Maryland's S
cinder outfit until this season,
Cronin now is training with a duel
purpose. After he hangs up his
gloves he will compete in the Oriole
$50, one of the feature events in
the Maryland-5th Regiment track
meet at Baltimore on March II.
Many Pass Up Nationals.
There is some probability of
Cronin and Alperstein journeying
to the national intercollegiate tour
ney at Madison. Wis, but Coach
Miller may decide otherwise, as he
feels it will take nothing less than
hand grenades to defeat Wisconsin's S
club Of former amateur aces.
Both Ben and Frank meet rugged
foes in their farewell flinging, with
Alperstein facing Harry Rising, un-
defeated in three bouts this season,
and Cronin meeting Dick Negley
unbeaten in five.

BY BURTON HAWKINS,

Inc District Amateur Athletic
Union today was confronted with an
unsavory situation, which. unless
somebody backs down. will result in
declaring the entire Delaware &
Hudson basket ball team, one of this
sectors crack amateur outfits, auto
matically ineligible for further
simon-pure competition here.
Involved in previous tiff with
the District A. A. U. which resulted
in the banishment of Cliff Keyser,
Knocky Thomas and Waverly
Wheeler from amateur ranks, Della
ware & Hudson completely muddled
the first half of the Heurich ANA
teur League and now is threatening
to toss the second half and cham
pionship playoff into mess.
Visiting Team Causes 1t.
1t all centers around the Athletic
Round Table team of Spokane,
Wash, here for a three-game series
against local quints. The Round
Tables recently participated in the
American Basket Ball Corp. tourney
at Atlanta, Ga, and since that event
was not sanctioned by the A. A. u,
local teams have been warned that
participation against the Round
Tables means automatic ineligibility
Dapper Dams, slated to face the
Round Tables tomorrow night, have
pulled out and Federal Bureau of
Investigation is expected to follow
suit at meeting of the clubs to-
night, but Manager George Cooke
OF Delaware & Hudson says his
team will play the entire series If
necessary.
Delaware & Hudson, which re-
organized to win the first half
Heurich League crown after the
banning of Keyser, Thomas and
Wheeler for professional baseball
activities, boasts such talented per-
formers as Don Fones, Gerry Burns
Milton Genderson, Akky Wanna
Walker, Sullivan and Folliard
Those players, providing they COM
pete against the Round Tables
would be ineligible to participate in
the play-of for the Heurich League
crown.

Event Unpredictab|e
After Tough First
Round Is Played
Semi-FinoI Tilt Between
Tech and St. Johns
Would Be 'koturoI'
BY GEORGE HUBER.

Stiff competition all along the
line is faced by seeded teams in
The Stars interscholastic basket
ball tournament opening Monday
night at Tech gym.
Eastern, Tech, St. Johns and
Gonzaga are seeded teams, but
such is the strength shown re-
Gently by the other four schools
that none of the favorites is as
sured of getting by the f1rst-round
games.
Eastern in the upper bracket and
st. Johns in the lower open the
tourney Monday night, meeting
George Washington of Alexandria
and Jefferson of Falls Church, re-
spectively, and neither game is a
setup. Particularly interesting is
the Eastern-G w. clash, rubber
game of this seasons competition
between the two. G.. w. won it's
home game, 22-l2, and Eastern re-
versed matters on its court, 1913.
With the neutral Tech gym as the
battle-ground real nip and tuck
contest is likely.
Jefferson Unknown Quantity.
The other game on Monday sends
st. Johns, defending the metro
politan championship crown won
last year, out against an unknown
quantity in Jefferson, winner of IA
straight contests and the only
quint in the Washington area that
went through its regular season
undefeated. The Johnnies should
have the edge in this game. but
the Jeffs are out to surprise and
will not give up without a battle,
we hear from Falls Church.
On Tuesday night the competi-
ton should be equally as keen.
Gonzaga in the upper and Tech
in the lower bracket meet Mont
gomery Blair of Silver Spring and
Mount Rainier, respectively.
The BlalrS won six successive
games in whirlWind finish to their
regular season that landed them in
The Star tourney for the first time,
and are particularly anxious to
make a good showing. They have
not met Gonzaga this year, but the
Purple is given slight edge on the
basis of comparative scores over
teams both have played
Semifinals Defy Prophets.
Tech and Mount Rainier likewise
will be meeting for the first time.
Even though the margin in this con-
test lies with Tech, the Mounts. as
a team that has gone undefeated in
Prince Georges County for three
successive years, promise to be no
easy marks. Gonzaga barely beat
Mount Rainier recently
Assuming that the seeded teams
survive the first round the semi
finals on Tuesday, March IA, are
absolutely unpredictable. Eastern
twice this season overcame Gonzaga,
the last time by only APPOINT mar
gin, and currently is on the crest of
a winning wave that carried it to
its second public high champion
ship. But Gonzaga also is enjoying
a winning streak and has been espe-
cially strong since the addition of
the tall Lane ODonnell to its roster.
The lower bracket rivalry. if the
seeded teams came through. would
be between Tech and st. Johns,
natural 1t would be another rub
Der game, st. Johns having defeated
Tech in January, while the Manual
Trainers came back last month to
hand the Johnnies one of their three
defeats of the season.

return bout with Bobby Rube of

Cohen had compiled a neat mar

the third round, and Cohen COL
lapsed. He claimed he was up at
