It looks as if the Eastern Confer
ence championship will be George
town's-and by no later than Satur-
day night AS result of its 1929
defeat of Penn State last night, the
title-bound Hoyas have only to whip
the cellar-place Pittsburgh team,
which has won only three out of
eight conference games.
True, one of those three wins was
at the expense of GEORGETOWN, but it
came on the Panthers' home floor.
and by only two points. AS a matter
of fact. Penn State nipped G. U.
on the Lions hardwood. but at Tech
where the Hoyas haven't been
beaten this season-it was different
story and the locals never were
threatened.
Because the goal Of the Eastern
Conference title has been upper
most in their minds, the Hoyas have
been discreetly silent about their
concurrent race for District honors
and impending game with George
Washington next Wednesday night.
Up to G.. VIC. U. Clash.
But now, more than ever, 1t ap-
pears as if that game-the last COL
lege contest here this year-wiu pro-
vide the final answer to the question
local fans have been asking the past
three months: Which is the leading
team in Washington?
G. U. and G. w. have experienced
strikingly similar-and spotty-sea-
sons. Their records are almost
identical, both having lost games,
and Georgetown's 13 victories being
one more than George Washington
has recorded. With one exception,

Mumukos to Rank
9TH as WeIter

Steve Mamakos,. Washington's
busy Golden Greek, is due for a
place ranking on the
welterweight ladder in the next
release of ratings by the National
Boxing Association.
Mamakos' rise from honorable
mention is accounted for by his
victory over Andre Jessurum in
Baltimore several weeks ago.
Previous to that Mamakos also
had scored over Lambertine VIII
liams in the same ring.
Mamakos was not ranked in the
last quarterly ratings because he
had remained idle following his
win over Bobby Pacho, the
Mexican. last fall at the Arena.
Pacho, incidentally. is meeting
Henry Armstrong for the world
Welterweight title this week end
in Havana. Mamakos has a 10
round bout with Vincent Pim-
pinella next Monday at Turner's
Arena.

Penn State presented a big, husky

ORLANDO, March CLARK Grif-
flth's plans to make Orlando an i'm
portant midwinter baseball center
today lacked only the decision of the
Boston Bees of the National League
to move their training quarters here
from Bradenton, Fla.
The Orlando City Council yester-
day opened the way for Grifhth's
plan to bring the Bees or another
major league club to Orlando by
promising to construct new club
house in the right-feld corner Of
Tinker Field. The Mats now use the
clubhouse in left.
1.-TWO clubs can use the same
field" said Griffith, elated over the
turn of events. by the simple
method of having one team train in
the morning and the other in the
afternoon. There's plenty of room"
Quinn May Visit Here.
In letter dispatched to the City
Council, Griffith said, in part: 1T is
the desire of the Washington club
to make Orlando it's permanent
training camp and it would be neces-
sary to have an agreement with the
city for the use of Tinker Field from
February Is through April 10. will
lend my efforts toward helping
Orlando secure another big league
club.
L want to assure the city that
will maintain the Orlando club in
the Florida State League as long as
said league is in existence. 1t also
is my wish that Joe Strip continue
his baseball school here each year.
II, in the event Strip discontinues,
in turn will see that one is estab-
lished in Orlando"
President Bob Quinn has been in
vited by Griffith to drop over and
inspect the layout No answer has
been received, but Griffith expects
visit any day.
All Problems Not Settled.
In the meantime a civil war has
been averted, at least for the mo-
ment, by Griffth's letter outlining
his policies. Strip, eX-major league
player and local man, understood
that Griffith was trying to run his
school off Tinker Field. Friends of
Stripp, some active in local politics,
squared away and threw ice in Grif-
f1th's direction.
But the old gentleman bought the
local club and became local man"
himself. His program has pleased
the Mayor and majority of the
City Council. They relish the idea
of two major league clubs.
A couple of problems remain to be
ironed out, however, indicating no
great love between Griffith and
Strip. The Mats president wants
Strip to clear his school out by
February Is. Strip doesn't want to
do this. Then Strip also wants
Exposition Park to open a second
school. Griffith doesn't want him to
have it because. he intends to take
his rockies down early in the future,
as he did this year, and he needs
Exposition Park until he can move
into the larger field.

.Louis-Ga|ento Match
Is Jacobs Revenqe
On 5chme|ing
Spurned Manager Grobs
Fight Thot Max Made
Special Trip to Get
BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. March a.
Now that all the principals in the
next heavyweight championship
fight are back in their street clothes,
I think it a good time to point out
that Joe Jacobs has done the greatest
job of managing in the glorious his
tory of prizefghting in getting his
character, round Tony Galento,
shot at Joe Louis.
Whatever Tony does with the
chance when the night of reckoning
comes around next June, and he act
ually finds himself in the ring with
Louis, Is strictly up to Tony. You
might even say it's Tony's funeral.
But Jacobs has done his part. He's
landed a title fight for a man who,
a year ago, was regarded only as a
beer-imbibing freak, and who only
few brief months ago was at deaths
door with pneumonia.
Gets Back on Schmeling.
Up to now, Joe's brightest achieve
ment had come the night when he
jumped into the ring and yelled Max
Schmeling into the heavyweight
championship. Max at the time was
on the floor from number of blows
planted by Jack Sharkey and was
about to be counted out. Joe yelled
foul so loud and so earnestly that
the arbiter finally believed him.
Joe now is in his glory, for with
the story of the Louis
matchmaking the papers carried
brief announcement that -Schme-
ling was returning to Germany after
fruitless trip over here in quest
of a return bout with Louis. From
other sources the word reached
here that Max was very angry and
embittered ex-champion.
That's just dandy with "Yussel,"
because Schmeling happens to be
the man who done Joe dirty after
Joe had shouted him into a cham
pionship he might otherwise never
have won. Schmeling, as his for
tunes mounted. cut Jacobs per-
centage down to mere whisper.
Then he cut Joe off the pay roll
entirely and relegated him virtually
to the role Of training camp jester.
"In the Cabbages Again"
It was that way up at Spectator
last summer, when Schmeling was
training for Louis. We all knew that
Joe was Schmeling's manager only
in name, that Mad paid no attention
to anything Joe said. But we wrote
nothing about it, because it might
have hurt Joe's pride, and Joe never
mentioned it because he was (give
him his due) intensely loyal to Max.
But here is Jacobs, Gin the cab
bages again." as he puts it. He's
already made nice fortune, prac-
tically every dollar of it on long
cigars and night clubs. He's never
wasted his money on trivialities like
Government bonds and annuities,
and never will.
