Mount st. Mary's comes to town
sporting six victories in seven
starts, and the victories scored
have been over strong rivals both
at home and on the road.
Loyola, Clemson, The Citadel,
st. Francis, Elon and Villanova. all
have been stern foes who have
shown a top-heavy string Of vic
tories, and C. u, losing by three,
four, or five points In each of
these tilts, is just one Of those
things-like the Maryland grid
season of 1888.
LACK POWER
Catholic University doesn't have
the power to compete against such
opposition. Scholarships are not
given to prospective college court
stars at the Bfookland school
About 18 scholarships are dealt to
graduating high school aces and
all are used to good advantage by
the football division Of the c. u
department Of athletics.
In the last several seasons two
high school basketball players en-
tered the Cardinal portals by way
of athletic scholarships, One ot
these was Bernie Lieb, who cap
tanned the team in his senior year
Iteb played at Eastern High
School. The other eager to re
ceive a scholarship was Bill Coun
Gilman, former st. Johns Prep
star. Councilman, however, failed
accidentally.
OF course Catholic UNIVERSITY
is not prone to offer star basket
ball players athletic scholarships
but they must be darn good foot
ball players as well.
But this day and age Of higt
specialization in sports, very few
college football players can double
up successfully as cage stars. Q.
course, there are exceptions. VIII
moth Sidat-Singh, Syracuse's flint
football player, is a star court
man; Bob O'Meara. Dukes full
back star, is another, and O.
course one or two other two-Spor
stars at other institutions.

where the entire team is made VI
of football players, 1t isn't hkel'
that the club will get very Tar.

Ellsworth Vines found his game

land last night, and stroklng the
ball with a power he has not
previously shown on his tour,
smothered J. Donald Bulge IN
straight sets. The scores were 6-4,
Ga. Impressive in victory, vines
halted the sweep Of Bulge after
the latter had scored six con-
secutive triumphs.
Vines aced his opponent to de-
feat. His set point in the first set
was a blistering drive into the
corner of the receiving eye that
defied the eye, let alone the swing
of a racquet. Halt a dozen times
prior to that climaxing smash, the
llanky veteran from Pasadena had
fairly scared the boards with
smashes that no human agency.
could have timed. In the second
set Vines ran three consecutive
aces to win one game. and 1ol'
lowed with two more at strategic
moments.
PERFECT TIMING
"I hit the ball harder tonight
than I have ever hit it before
on this tour" Vines said as he
prepared for the doubles
matches. my sense Of timing
was far keener than it was in
Baltimore on Saturday night. I

If War Comes

This is an excellent time for thought and perhaps for action with respect to the self-sufficiency of the United States in the event of an emergency, such as war. It will come with surprise to many people to know that 70 per cent of the supply of antimony comes from China and that 30 per cent of the supply of tungsten has the same origin. Both of these metals are extremely important. Tin and manganese are obtained in large quantities in Brazil and in Russia, but it is possible these sources of supply might be shut off.
 Dr. John w. Finch, head of the U. s. Bureau of Mines, is one of the authori ties who urges the purchase of wartime store of these essentials at the present time In support of his position he cites instances in the last war when it was necessary to smuggle platinum out of Russia and to use some considerable skullduggery to obtain supply of Chil- can nitrates.
 Prices advance as much as 400 per cent when shortage develops, pr. Finch revealed, and necessary supplies purchased now may save situation in the future. small part of the gold held in hole in Kentucky may pur- chase essentials more precious than the entire store of the yellow metal.
