 The German command said Russian counterattacks, designed to halt the German advance on Rostov and the industrially rich Donets Basin, failed and gave their Italian comrades in the in- asion ranks major credit for countering the action.

That was a mighty nice effort
Georgetown's freshman mile relay
turned in at New York last satur-
day night to win the National A. A.
U. championship in the record
breaking time of 3:195, but Coach
Hap" Hardell optimistically figures
the boys can do better.
Its hard to tell about those
things" he said today, "but think
we could have bettered the old mark
in our first heat If the pressure had
been on. Al Rogers, our leadoff
man, turned in a 49.4 quarter on his
leg. and Hugh Short and Lou Col
lado loafed through their legs, saw
ing themselves for the final. Even
with that they were caught In 3:24.5,
so you can only guess what the time
would have been If they had tried.
I'm the evening, we drew the out
side lane and Rogers was pushed
back, showed around and left in the
wake of his field and still got home
In 81 seconds. Paul James, Short
and Collado ran their usual races,

did in the afternoon the time would
have been well below 3:f9. I'm not

Tech Team 10 Beat
In SchooIboy Track
CompetitionH Here
Drives to Third Place
In Southern Loop Meet;
Episcopal Scores

Rusty Thompson's track crew at
Tech High has an early edge on
other schoolboy outfits in this area
and definitely is established as the
team to beat in future meets this
year.
Central, Washington-Lee, Episco-
pal and Tech squads went to the
Southern Conference indoor meet at
Chapel Hill over the week end, but
only Tech returned with anything
tangible. The Maroons won third
place with points while Washing
ton-Lee, champion last year, was
shut out along with Central. Episco-
pal managed to get 8 points. AS ex-
pected, Thomas Jefferson of Rich
mond won the scholastic division on
13 points, largely through the two
f1rsts won by its great sprinter, Har-
grave.
Top Teams Apt to Run Here.
jefferson High of Roanoke finished
second ahead of Tech by,11s points.
Both of these Jeffersons, incident
ally, probably will be seen in track
action in Washington later this sea-
son at the annual &C" Club meet.
Best performance of all was that
turned in by Techs high jumper,
Ed Barham, who won his event with
a leap Of 6 feet 2 inches, only q
fraction of an inch below his best
previous effort. That promises some
real jumping later in the season
when he really gets going. His
mark, incidentally, was better than
the height reached by winners in
the three other and supposedly
stronger observation-disclosures, nom
conference and freshman.
Episcopal Relay Second.
Techs other 2 points were on
fourth places by Don Grey in the
1000 and Norman Davies in the
hurdles. Episcopal scored its 3
points when its mile relay team
finished second behind Woodberry
Forest, another strong team which
probably will appear in the &C" Club
meet.
WaShington-Lee's defending 6
champions were entered in only two
events, the 1000 and the mile relay,
and didn't come close in either, not
even placing in the 1000 heats. No
heats were run for the relay. Cen
tral managed several places in the
heats, but got nowhere in the finals.

Regal CIothiers Earn
New Glory Despite
Loss TO 0hrbach
Sizzling Basket Contest
For M. A. Title Equals
Any Here This Year

Regal Clothiers didn't win the
title in the third annual Middle
Atlantic amateur basket ball tour
nament which closed last night at
Heurich gym, but they proved that
Washington courtmen can hold their
own with the best Of the simon
pures.
Today the trophy is on It's way TO
New York in possession of the po-
tent Ohrbach quint. The New York,
ers copped the marbles with a 1924
victory over Regal last night in a
sizzling court duel that matched
anything, professional, collegiate or
amateur, witnessed here this season. q
And the Clothiers. though defeated,
showed the visitors smart and
scrappy style before fading out OF
the picture and were enjoying a
1910 lead at the half.
1t was a new and novel expert
ence for the champions, who frankly
expected to breeze through local
competition without working up a.
good sweat. The Orhbachs gained
the final by stopping the Sphas Re-
serves, 1925, in the semi-flnals,
while Regal advanced through the
medium Of torrid 1884 triumph
over Delaware & Hudson. f
No box office bonanza, the tourna-
ment has been a labor Of love for
the men behind the scenes, Bob
Mcdonald and Eddie Collifower,
and they already are drafting plans
for the next one. The Ohrbachs,
definitely will be back and their
enthusiasm for the affair may bring
more requests for bids from New
Jersey and Pennsylvania teams. ''
There Is no doubt the tournament
can be a permanent and self-sup-7
porting fixture on the District
sports calendar if it didn't bankrupt
it's supporters this time. Friday,
night it had opposition from the
high school championship play-of
and Saturday the Catholic U.-Co-'
lumbus boxing match got most Of
the publicity and most of the crowd.
Even last there was a counter
attraction across the street at River
side, where Washington and Balti-
more clashed in pro game.
But the biggest feather in the
city's civic cap is Royals fine show
ing. Ohrbachs, it will be recalled,
played the nationally famous
Phillips 66 Oilers two extra periods
before bowling at Madison Square
Garden earlier in the season and
vanquished several strong college
teams Thus the Clothiers, who
have their own troubles around the
home hearth, played a game that
would stand up on any court and
thereby brought new glory to Wash
ington courtmen.

WashgintonS unusually enthuSl-
astic sports followers were aroused
to a feverish pitch Of indifference
concerning the exchange of 81 ma
tional indoor speed skating cham
pionships at Uline Arean over the
week end. And since the customers
outnumbered the skaters and off,
cials only slightly it isn't likely the
village will be the site of the event
again.
Indoor speed skating here seems
doomed to follow the trail of nah
long and Chinese checkers. It's
about as pulsating as either OF those
games, more confusing and promotes
a bitter brand of unsportsmanlike
conduct among contestants.
There were some tiny, cute boys
and girls in the midget and juvenile
events, but they were exposed to the
explosive tempers of huskier young
s&ers and never had chance. On
the starting line the biggest, tough
est kids obtained the best starting
positions, showing little tykes on
their claims to a small chunk OF pre-
ferred ice. The little ones were en-
couraged with assorted snarls and
shoyes Under the noses OF gayly
badged officials.
Mr.. Michael J. Uline, who owns
the arena which housed the cham
pionships and who put up the cash
to stage the event, is reported some
what less enthusiastic over the ap-
peal of speed skating. Mr.. Uhne
confided to one of his employees, in
fact, that he had been talked into
large white elephant.
Attendance was discouraging. the
records which appeared so easy to
fracture in official eyes still stand
and the most highly touted Of the
skaters-Leo Freisinger and Carme-
lita Landry-Were complete duds
Between them they failed to win a
place in any event.
The excitement aroused in both
nights of the event would be sur
passed in one period of ice hockey
Yes, there were spills, but they were
no more interesting or frequent than
seen almost any evening at a public
skating session.
Anyway, Roy Erickson Of Brooklyn
and John Simmons of Stamford
Conn, who won only one title be-
tween them, tied for the mems senior
al-events title by compiling TO points
each through the medium of being
