Winston Churchill, Great Brit
tain's elder statesman, is key figure
in political storm which is rocking
the British government. Appoint
ment Of the 64-year-old veteran to
the cabinet has been urged repeat
edly as the most effective defense
measure Prime Minister Neville
Chamberlain could take, and there
has been growing popular demand
for the move.
Churchill repeatedly has warned
the government of the danger which
Hitler's regime involves and has de-
manded rearmament to the teeth
and stern resistance to the dicta-
tors demands. s.s During his long ca
reer Churchill has held six major
cabinet posts, and is regarded as
one Of the able. administrators of
the country as well as enjoying a
high reputation as military STRAIT
egist. He became First Lord of the
Admiralty in 1911. He also served

Runciman, Lord President Of the
Council, would resign; Earl STAN
hope, now First Lord of the Ad-
miralty, would take RuncimaR's
post, and Churchill would move into
the Admiralty Office. 1.
Runciman was named to the cabi-
net as a reward for his work as
mediator at Prague, his work there
paving the way for the partition of
Czecho-Slovakia. Stanhope also was
named to his post as a result OF the
Munich crisis, when fiery: Alfred
Duff Cooper tossed up the Office be-
cause he could not approve OF Brit
aims part in the affair.
The further Britain's revolt
against Chamberlain's appeasement
policies spreads, the greater are
chances Of this cabinet shakeup and
Churchill's return to leadership OF
the worlds greatest navy. Observ"
ers say that day is not far of.

His reappointment as First Lord
of the Admiralty, his supporters
argue, would be the clearest possi-
BILE warning to Hitler that Britain
means business when it says it no
longer will tolerate aggression and
that any move on Poland means war
with Britain as well.
Chamberlain, however, fears that
if Churchill enters the cabinet be-
cause of pressure Of public opinion,
he would be in such a strong posi-
tion that he could control the cabinet
and be Prime Minister in all but

WILLIAMSBURG, Va, May H.
It was North Carolina's five-time
champions against the field in the
annual Southern Conference tennis
tournament opening here today.
Eight other schools are competing,
but 1t was expected to be just a for
mality resulting in all-North Caro-
lima finals in both the singles and
doubles on Saturday.
A total of AZ players are entered
from N. c. State, Maryland, v. M. l.,
Richmond, William and Mary, Da-
wilson, Washington and Lee, Duke
and North Carolina.
Neither the singles champion,
Johnny Foreman, nor his teammate
on the winning 1888 doubles, Zan
Carver, are back at Carolina this
year.
Favored to take over their crowns
are members of this quartet: Char
lie Rider, winner of the North-South
meet at Pinehurst last month; Eddie
Fuller and the Rood twins, Carl and
Bill, co-captains of the Tar Heel
squad.
Maryland has five in the tourney,
Allie Ritzenberg, Nathan Askin, Jack

-Four Records Appear
Doomed in Virginia
Big Six Meet
Grover Everett's Hurdle
Mark Among Those
Likely to Go
BY the Associated Press.

RICHMOND. Va, May 11.-Four
records are fairly certain to take a
licking and two others will be en-
dangered when the Old Dominion's S
top track and field men participate
in the 11th annual Big Six" meet
in City Stadium Saturday.
Outstanding star of the meet is
Frank Fuller, Virginia hurdler and
American Olympic team prospect,
who has been beating both the high
and the low hurdle marks In dual
meets.
Fuller tied the existing record
when he SKINNED the high boards
in 148 seconds in the State meet
last year and has been down to IA
this season. Similarly, he has done
23.8 in the low hurdles this spring
and is likely to erase the 245 record
set by Grover Everett of Virginia,
Washington, D. c., product, in 1884.
In the quarter-mile Heartsill
Ragon, Washington and Lee ace, is
expected to whip the 49.5 record per-
formance of v. M. is Wexford in
1884, and Capt. Dick Strickler,
v. M. l., is expected to wipe out the
record of 48 feet y inch set by
Swart of Virginia Tech in the shot
put. Strickler has a Southern Con-
ference record of 48 feet Az inches.
In addition to these vulnerable
records, the 2-mile mark of 9:52.6
may be shattered by Oliver Draine
of Tech and Richmond's Ed Sinar
is given an outside chance of erasing
the mark of 1872 feet 11a inches in
the javelin.

George Washington's tennis match

George Washington's tennis match
with Georgetown at Columbia
Country Club and Maryland's start
in the Southern Conference net
tournament at Williamsburg, Va,
were the only events involving local
collegians today. but tomorrow two
baseball games and another net en-
counter are scheduled.
Then Georgetown's nine will come
back to the Hilltop for a game with
Washington and Lee, while Amer
lean U. will play host to Western
Maryland on the diamond and
Randolph Macon on the courts.
The G. WIG. U. tennis match
today was the first between the
local rivals since 1881, when George
town won, 5-4. On comparative
records this season the Colonials
should be favored, as they have de-
feated Pittsburgh, Richmond, Wake
Forest and Boston College and lost
only to Michigan and Colgate.
G. u, on the other hand, has beaten
only Lafayette, while losing to Navy
and Colgate.
AS a result of the track meet at
College Park yesterday, in which
Maryland soundly spanked George
town, 94-30, those old rivals were all
even today for major sports during
the 1938-39 school year Beaten in
football and basket ball, the Terps
havo cOna hack tn win the first
baseball game and the dual meet.
Georgetown's ball team yesterday
returned to winning ways by beat
ing Navy at Annapolis, 8-6. Six
runs in the fourth enabled the
Hoyas to overcome the Middies' SO
lead accumulated in the first two
innings and the Blue and Gray
pushed over their other two in the
ninth to break a tie.
Winnie Powers, who pitched the
entire game for G. u, scored the
winning run after leading off with
single. Powers, George Pajak
and Joe McFadden each made two
hits to lead Georgetown's Shit at
tack. Navy collected nine of
Powers.
American us nine weakened in
the last two innings to drop 1876
decision to Hampden-Sydney. Lead
ing, GA. George Brown suddenly
lost control in the eighth and be-
fore the Tigers could be retired they
had seven runs.

Roosevelt Golf Team
Near Third Title
In Succession
Will Take Dawes Trophy
Unless Western Coils
Halt Tomorrow

Not often since Gen. Charles D.
Dawes finally gave in to the wish
of kindly Jim Preston 10 years ago
and donated a cup for team golf
competition among the public high
schools in Washington has any
group of high school linksmen had
such a strangle hold on the tourney
as the Rough Riders of Roosevelt
have had for the past three years.
The Roosevelt lads, captained by
Cliff Gruver, are on the threshold
of their third consecutive public
high school team links champion
ship, and face only one more OBJ
stacle before they can toss the big
mug back in the trophy case on
Thirteenth street for another year.
Team Is Well Balanced.
Roosevelt teams led by Andy Oil
veri, the present public links cham
pion, won the Dawes Cup in 1887
and 1888, succeeding the long reign
of outfits at Western High, cap
tanned by Billy Shea, in the role of
champions. And now Roosevelt,
even though it lacks an outstanding
player and boy who consistently
scores well down in the 70s, is about
ready to grab another champion
ship.
The Rough Riders will face West
ern tomorrow at Indian Spring in a
match which will either decide the
championship outright or will toss
the thing into tie Tech High links
men, before the tournament opened
an unknown golf quantity, are push
ing the leaders, with four wins and
one loss. But Roosevelt has clean
slate. Gruver and his lads have
won victories over Wilson, Tech and
Central and come up to the Western
match without loss, knowing that
George Vass, Western captain, will
put his best lineup forth to lick
the leaders.
Need Individual Tourney.
The real tragedy Of high school
golf series this year is that the
schoolboys haven't yet sold" the
idea of an individual champion
snip, ana no group seems willing
to go to bat to put it over Buddy
Sharkey, who won last year, is at
Georgetown this year, but there are
few good golfers among the school
boys. Vass is good, and so are Ralph
Bogart and Earl Skinker of Wilson.
But the latter pair have been in
eligible for schoolboy competition
this year.
Rockville High School lads, with
Scotty Ross topping their team, are
tied with Bethesda Chevy Chase for
the lead among the schoolboys out
side of Washington.
The Roosevelt lineup includes
Gruver, Waggaman, Patterson, Pow
ers, Coleman and Anderson.

Nunez's Tennis Loss
Only Surprise Of
Public High Play

Western and Woodrow Wilson won
interhigh tennis matches from Tech
and Eastern yesterday, but the de-
feat of Miguel Nunez, Western S
No. star, was the news of the day.
Nunez, runner-up for the District
junior championship last year, was
beaten by Bud Edwards, 6-1, 1-6,
IS.
Nunez's teammates lost only one
other match, however, as they
trimmed the Manual Trainers. So.
Wilson was even more superior to
Eastern, blanking the Lincoln Park

No. singles match from Firth, 60,

was extended to three sets.

AInwick's Victory Over
Murphy Adds Pepper

By ROD THOMAS.

Maryland's crushing track defeat
Of Georgetown yesterday made it a
strong favorite to capture the Dis
trict A. A. U. team title in the first
annual Evening Star games Satur-
day in Byrd Stadium, but neither
the lacing nor their outlook for Sat-
urday worries the HoyaS. Their eyes
are on the future and they see the
Hilltop coming back to its former
glorious standing in the realm of
flying spikes.
Blue and Gray interest in The
Star games is focused on its fresh
men, who form the nucleus for a
squad of the next several years with
which Georgetown is expected to
60 places. Outstanding among the
yearlings are the giant shotputter,
AL Blozis, and Greg Koehler, jave-
lin thrower.
In The Star games they will make
their first appearance before a
Washington crowd, and reports of
their feats in practice have made
many eager to see them. Blozis is
beating SO feet with the 16-pOund
ball, and Koehler is throwing the
stick well beyond 200.
Blozis Gives Exhibition.
BloziS, however, will not be'a can
didate for a prize. Although pitch
ing with the rest of the weight Sen,
his performance will be technically
an exhibition for the big boy-he
stands 6 feet and weighs 243
pounds-will represent the New York
Athletic Club in the Metropolitan
A. A. U. meet.
Not since Bill Guckeyson tossed
the javelin for Maryland until now
has the Washington area boasted
a javelinist of class. At this writ
ing there are two and the battle
between them will be one of the
high lights of the doings Saturday.
Koehlers rival is Bob Beatty of Bull
lis School who, at high school in
Pennsylvania. last year was the
only schoolboy in the country to
sail the stick beyond 200 feet.
Interest in the A. A. U. dashes
grew to. fever proportions today as
track fans reviewed the defeat of
Joe Murphy of Maryland by Morty
Alnwick of Georgetown in the 100.
1t was Murphy's only loss in 12
outdoor races. Murphy got even by
beating the versatile Hoya-he's
entered in four events of The Star
meet-in the 220 His victory in
the furlong, plus win in the broad
jump and second in the century
made him the. high scorer of the
dual meet with l3 points.
Must Figure Began.
Murphy and Alnwick won't have
the dashes all to themselves. Either
or both may be beaten by the de-
Tending champion, Joe Began
dental student at Georgetown but
out of varsity competition this sea-
son due to pressure of study. Began
has had comparatively little time to
train. but says he is in far better
condition than might be expected.
Another promising candidate for
dash honors is Roger Cooper of
Catholic University.
Every event in the A. A. U. and
the interscholastic events is well
filled and the meet is expected to
bring out the sharpest' competition
generally of any meet here in years.
The meet will start at pm. An
admission fee of 40 cents will be
levied.
