Dig meetS SutuTooy
BY LEWIS F. ATCHISON.
As proud and anxious as q new
poppa. Joe Judge was to send his
Georgetown nine against Penn this
afternoon at 2:30 on the Medical
School diamond in its opening test
of the season.
The former Washington first
sacker thought he had a fair to
middling team before the boys had
an opportunity to disprove his
theory, and was especially impressed
by Hank Mylnarski's work around
shortstop. He liked the youngster'a Z
action in the field and at the plate.
Blessed with huge hands, fine
sense of judgment and good COM
petitive spirit, Mylnarsh was sup
posed to be the right answer to
Joe's fervent prayer for a Short
stop.
Will Use Three Pitchers.
The Hoya twirlers were slated to
begin in big league fashion with
three of them splitting up nine
inning shift. Capt. John Smith,
Bill Wixted and Winnie Powers, all
right-handers, were to work in that
order. Dick Dieckleman, a burly
southpaw, was ready If needed, but
Judge preferred to play him in right
field to take advantage of his po-
tential batting power.
Penn, arriving here early this
morning after futile Southern trim
that saw most of its games post
poned because Of cold, was expected
to use Tony Caputo, Lin Fawley and
Johnny Horrocks in ree-inning
turns.
Al Blozis, Georgetown's shot
pitching champion, and Phil Graves,
freshman 1000-yard hoofer, will
represent the school in the Finnish
relief games Saturday night at New
York. Blozis will compete in the
medley shot event, in which the
athletes will heave cannon balls of
8, II and Is pound dimensions, while
Graves will face a crack field at his
favorite distance. Both are odds
on choices to win.
A. U. Intramurals Copied.
Staff Cassell is degenerating into
an authority popular demand.
American University's director of
athletics has seized the ancient
cliche of intramural sports and
twisted it into a purposeful valu-
able adjunct to the varsity program
and the transition has been so sue
cessful other schools want to know
how it's done.
We're simply applying common
sense to our intramural program" "
Staff says, "and have discovered
that some intramural principles are
applicable to varsity sports"
Eagle athletes make their own
training rules and enforce discip-
line under Cassell's plan, and also
have hand in arranging sched-
ules. The idea is to make them
shoulder some of the responsibility,
thereby acquiring character sports
are mistakenly supposed to incul-

Terps to Run in Florida.
Four crack Maryland runners left
early today for the Florida Re-
lays at Gainesville Saturday, when
they will essay iron-man roles by
running in three events. The quar-
tet will appear in the mile and
2-mile relays and mile team event.
The last named is scored like a cross
country race, the first three men of
each team crossing the finish line
counting in the point tabulation.
Ed Kowalski and Bob Kercher
tackle and end, respectively, who
departed from Georgetown at the
end of the first term, are trying to
sign with the Detroit Lions, but
their debut in pro football may be
delayed because of the league rule
prohibiting teams from signing
players before their class graduates.
They may have to spend a season
in the minors before trying for the
big show, which, Jack Hagerty as
sures us, they're certain to make.
Bergman's Golf Is Good.
Add smiles: AS busy as Dutch"
Bergman trying to get in round
OF golf before the start of spring
football practice at Catholic Uni
versity. The Cardinal mentor has
been out twice since the snow dis
appeared and chalked up scores of
81 and 80. Grid work begins Fri
day at Brookland and he's trying
to break 80 before then.
Catholics schedule plans
have been knocked into a cooked
hat by Tulsas request for a late
date, which probably will be ar
ranged if Bergman's supply of
headache tablets holds out. Miami,
Detroit, West Virginia Wesleyan
and st. Anselm's are on the list,
which will be about the same as
last years.
Bergman's problems are rebuild
ing the line from tackle to tackle,
replacing Rocco Pirro at fullback
and patching other spots.
Catholic loses IL players by grad
uation-which is about the number
of right halfbacks Bill Reinhart Is
trying to fit into George Washing
tons backfleld.
Bids for Maryland Berth.
A non-letter winner last year.
Jack Garrett may blossom out into
