this afternoon.
The Colonials were to meet Rich
mond's potent sluggers, who have
won seven straight, at 2:30 on the
Ellipse, while Georgetown and La
fayette were to get together at the
same hour on the medical school
field. Maryland's game with Michi-

threatened to wash out the entire
program.
George Washington had the
toughest assignment of the trio.

Suppressing the Spiders loomed as
a man-sized task for Redinger, who
was none too impressive against
Dartmouth in the opening game.
Mondorff of Maryland, facing
Michigan, also appeared headed for
trouble. The Wolverines slapped

Change in Golf Rule Held Good for Figure
Lnkswomen Must Bend Not scope Clear Line Of Putt

II don't believe the women who

Robert A. Lacey, president of the
Women's District Coli Associa-

Mrs Lacey was referring to the
Only really important change in

pens to be important because it

pens to be a fairly important

EDMONTON, April IA.
Percy Pages Edmonton Grads,
the wonder team" Of women's
basket ball, want to play three
more series and then retire on
their 25th anniversary and give
up their world senior champion
ship.
Formed as a school team in
1914, the Grads became a senior
team the following year and
have held the Underwood Wom-
ems International Basket Ball
Trophy since 1923.
Page said the Grads would like
to play the winners Of the 1910
Canadians women's senior "A"
championship, then the Wichita

the Chicago All-Stars.

Feminine golf got away to an
early start today-earlier than in
many years-with the playing Of
series of team matches between
first and second teams from eight
clubs. First team matches, for the
title won last year by Chevy Chase,
were played at Argyle, where the
host club drew a bye. Second team
matches were played at Chevy
Chase, with Congressional Defend
ing the crown the women of that
club won last year. Third team
contests will not start until April
10, while all other matches sched-
uled for April 16 have been moved
forward to April 10.
The opinion that the women's
team matches are the most iimpor-
tant items in feminine competitive
golf voiced by Mrs. Ralph w.
Payne, a former president of the
Women's District Golf Association,
is shared by Mrs. Robert A. Lacey,
her successor in the presidency.
These team matches produce more
good golfers than any other affairs
on our schedules" Mrs. Lacey says.
''They furnish the real competition
which makes good golfers"
The matches which started today
will continue at the rate of one each
week through May on a shorter
schedule than usual. In each case
the host club draws a bye. One OF
the items connected with the team
contests is the plucky stand of the
women of the Argyle Club. Unable
to win single match last year, they
put in first team this year and
will carry on as usual. Out of such
spirit eventually will come a good
golf team.
Gonzaga Topping Schoolboys.
At the same time eight schoolboy
teams swung into action again
today in another series of team
contests, which finds Gonzaga top
ping the list, starting today's con-
tests with two matches won and
none lost in the tourney for the
metropolitan schoolboy champion
ship. In the Dawes Cup series, be-
tween public high schools in WASH
ington, the Wilson, Western, Gen.
tral and Roosevelt teams are dead
locked for first place with one VIC
tory each. Wilson, with another
strong outfit, looms as the team to
whip in the Dawes Cup matches,
while Bethesda-Chevy Chase, cur
rent met schoolboy champs, ap-
pear the team to whip in the
larger series, with Gonzaga close up.
Bladensburg High, which so far has
been the surprise outfit of the series,
nipped the champs in the opening
encounter, and may prove the dark
horse of the series.
At Manor next Monday women
of the Norbeck club will hold their
opening field day tourney for club
members. The event will be in
charge of Mrs. Walter R. Stokes and
Mrs. L. G.. Pray.

NO PETITION HAS BEEN SENT

Due to the great increase in
population in various defense cen
tiers turnout the state and the
heavy traffic attendant, Col. MS.
Battle of the Virginia motor We
hicles department is appealing to
Governor Price for the addition
of about twenty-five more troop
ers" to the state highway patrol.
According to the Colonel, it has
been necessary to transfer scores
of patrolmen to the congested
areas. He stated in a dispatch
from Richmond several days ago
that many rural areas of the state
were without adequate highwa.
protection, as provided by his
boys.
No doubt Dickinson County is
to be found in this category. Our
fair county has not had troopers
on the highways since shortly af-
ter labor troubles in the county
several months ago. To the best
of our knowledge, no petitions
have been compiled by citizens in
this county and forwarded to the
Colonel asking for troopers to pa
troll our highways. All has been
quiet and peaceful since the
"educationaP' program for noun
tain drivers came to an end and
the mass exodus occurred to the
