6. Virginia Basket
Struggle Is Toss-up;
Georgetown Loses
By LEWIS F. ATCHISON.


Pretty much like the hashhouse
which served beans and more
beans, tonight's collegiate sports
menu features boxing and more
boxing as Columbus and Catholic
University mingle at Brookland
while Maryland tries to hold the
fort against Virginia's undefeated
forces at College Park.
Action on the Brookland front is
slated for $3.50, but Maryland is
staging matinee and evening twin
bills that will keep the athletes
busy from early afternoon until
we'll after bedtime. A basket ball
game with Johns Hopkins opens
varsity activities at o'clock, boxing
following Immediately. In the aft
ernoon the Terp yearling quint
meets Baltimore Poly at 2:30 and
the ringmen face Virginia's Frosh
at o'clock.
Other District teams will see
action on scattered fronts with
George Washington's court duel
with Virginia at Charlottesville
sharing chief interest with George
town and Maryland runners in the
Millrose games at New York. The
Colonials have an even chance
against the once-defeated Cavaliers,
hut the trackmen will have to show
some fancy hoofing to outdistance
their star studded fields.
Hoyas Oppose Crack Relays.
Georgetown's mile relay team OF
George Tucknott, Ken Lyden, Vim
ME Braun and Morty Alnwick is
paired with crack quartets repre-
senting Manhattan and Holy Cross
in one of the relays and Maryland's S
2-mile team of Mason Chronlster
Allan Miller, Tommy Fields and
Jim Kehoe lines up against Yale,
Columbia and Fordham. Kehoe also
is slated to appear in the invita-
tional half-mile run and if not
ready to take his place on the
relay team will be replaced by Bob
Condor.
On paper the Columbus Catholic
clouting contest is toss-up. Co.
lumbus appears to have an edge in
the lighter classes while Catholic
is conceded the better team above
the 155-pound division. With hopes
of seeing the duel decided by an
upset the largest crowd of the season
is expected to see the rivals launch
their long awaited rivalry.
Catholic will lineup with Ted
Mandris, 100 pounds: Len Baritone,
1877; Luis De La Rosa, 1876; Huck
Hughes, 145; Joe Bunsa, 1855; Gerry
Strang, 165; Fred Slant, ITS, and
Jay Turner, heavyweight. Colum-
bus, taking them in the same order
will be represented by Len Lehrner,
Lou Taub, Stan Stephenson, Ralph
Lazear. Charley Cox, Bill Crum,
Lou Hayman and Abe Cohen.
Cavaliers Look Formidable.
Maryland appears to be over its
head against Virginia for this 1910
team is regarded as one of the best
ever nodded by capable old Johnny
La Rowe while Maryland's merely
is average. Add a few bruised
knuckles to the Maryland score and
you understand why the Terps are
in the role of underdog. Bob Brad
ley, 127-pounder, and Newton Cox
conference middleweight champion
two of the teams best mitt-slingers
have been bothered in training by
ailing hands, but will be in the
lineup. Otherwise the team is in
good condition.
Virginia will use the same eight
men who lost only 112 points in
whipping Virginia Tech and North
Carolina. 1t is well balanced
array of marksmen that will defend
the Old Dominion's colors. and a
well coached group. Virginia's line
up includes Joe Block, 100; Lip
Knit, 1877; Peter Coy, 1886: Dick Will
'liams, 145; Truman SouthalL, 1856;
Somerville, 1865; Ken Rathbun, ITS.
and Ed Burgess, heavyweight.
Maryland has a fighting chance
if Bradley and Cox win. Much de-
pends on the Terps' lighter men
Johnny Harm, Nate Askin and Hotsy
AlperStein, but if the match reaches
the halfway mark with Virginia in
front, it would seem to be curtains
for the home team.
Georgetown on Short End.
Georgetown was due home today
from 3-day Northern trip that re-
suited in two defeats in three games
The Hoyas nosed out Army in their
first game, but bowed to Syracuse
and Colgate on successive nights
The Red Raiders shaded them last
night, 1895, with a late rally, en-
ployIng the same tactics Syracuse
found so successful.
Hero of the trip was George
PaJak. an elusive guard, who not
only set a brisk scoring pace, but
played a brilliant floor game. Pajak
last night contributed 16 points tc
his teams scoring, running second tc
Hank Fawcett of Colgate, who scored
10 points for the evenings honors
Georgetown led at the half, 1917
but couldn't withstand the enemy's
closing drive.
