Kelly Madigan grinned at the
mental picture he had of the amaze

quickly slipped into his trousers and
slippers. The door, under the hard
jerk of his hand, banged back
against the dresser so that when
Kelly appeared in the outer hallway
he had already been announced and
Gregory's head had lifted toward
the rear of the apartment.

His departure for Southern climes

and that's that. Poppa usually re-

This current Terp quint plodding

Shipley's 25th Coaching Year.
Shipley isn't fretting or sulking
about it, and he isn't peeved with the
boys. He takes it philosophically.
They may not be the best basket
ball players in the world, but I've
never had better bunch of boys on
my squad" he says. They give
| their best and that's all you can ask
of them"
Yet it's too bad the bottom fell
out of things this year because this
is Ships silver anniversary in the
coaching business. He started at
the University of Delaware in 1916
and since has been at it steadily
with the exception of brief time
out for the first World War.
One of Ships" earliest teams at
DelaWare-immediately after the
armiStice was signed-had four
former lieutenants on the roster
ana he believes that team was as
! good as any he's coached. 1t knocked
off powerful Bucknell quint that
also boasted a couple of eX-officers.
Shipley played for the Maryland
AggieS in the campaign of 1923
and captained the 1914 team and
is in his 18th year as Terp coach.
He returned to his alma mater at
the start of the 1924 season and
in 1924 led him men into Atlanta,
Ga, for their first tournament ap-
pearance But there waS no march
through Georgia that year. The
Bulldogs turned back the Terps,

mated Louisiana State. 34-19.

Riders Use Reserves
In Second Half

Roosevelt's Rough Riders, high
school and Washington Metropolitan
basket ball champions, have real
basis today for claiming a current
ranking as the No scholastic cage
outfit in this section.
They moved into the clear and
over a stiff hurdle yesterday by de-
featlng GonZaga, champion of the
Catholic schools and again con-
sidered the best in that division
1896. That gives the Riders a
record of six wins against four de-
feats, which on the face hardly is
anything on which to base a claim
of top ranking.
Two of those defeats, though, were
to college freshmen outfits-George
Washington and Maryland another
was to a tough out-of- town outfit
on a road trip.
So the only real blot on the Roose-
welt record is a defeat by Bethesda
Chevy Chase in the seasons first
game, and today Roosevelt would be
a favorite to win should they meet
again.
Among the top-ranking teams the
Riders have defeated are Tech
Eastern and Central in addition to
Gonzaga and these teams in turn
have defeated George Washington
High, Washington-Lee, Bethesda
Chavy Chase, st. Johns, Mont
gomery Blair, Wilson and Dewitt
which just about encompasses the
top crust of cage teams in this Sec
ton.
Yesterdays game was a thrilling,
fast-moving affair from start to
finish. Hynie Perlo. Frank Ciango
Tom Robertson and Charles Howard
led the Roosevelt drive which got
a 1928 lead at the half. Gonzaga
made it close when Coach Herman
Littman used Roosevelt reserves in
the second half.

N.A).-The original purpose of

went to Seipp, who valiantly tried
to pull his team through. 1t was
