Terp Nine Refuses Forfeit.

The ball game was an erratic
affair, with Maryland really win
ming it two ways. The Terps were
leading in the sixth inning when
Tom Kibler, Washington coach,
rushed out to protest third strike.
He refused to leave the field when
ordered to do so by Umpire Shoe
maker. Shoemaker declared the
game forfeited to Maryland, and
players and fans swarmed over the
field. ..
Burt Shipley, Terp coach, refused
to accept the forfeit. and play con-
tinued after Mike johnson of the
Maryland State Police had cleared
the field. =.
Shoemaker refused to continue
and Bottle" Cox worked the rest
Of the game alone.
A four-run rally in the seventh
turned, the tide in favor of the Old
Liners after the lead had changed
hands several times. Mearle Du-
vail, Terp first-sacker, opened the
frame with a homer to left. Walks
to England and Boothe. and singles
by Wharton and Whipp were re-
sponsible for the other three runs.
-Four pitchers worked for the
Terps, while two fingers saw service
for the Shoremen.
Charlie Woodward started and
was followed by Fulton, Smith and
Hunt
Selby and: Rayne, hurled for the
visitors.

Special Dispatch TO The Star
COLLEGE PARK, Md.-A stout
hearted Maryland lacrosse team dis
regarded pre-match odds to take a
thrill ll-drenched, extra period vic
tory from Princeton, 6-5, and give
the Terps a clean sweep in four
varsity sports on their annual field
day program here today.
Rising to the occasion the Old
Liners outlasted Washington Col
lege in a baseball game, 12-11, after
the trackmen launched the busy
days activities with decisive 81-45
triumph over Virginia Poly. The
tennis team routed George Wash
ington, 81, for its ninth victory
in 10 matches.
Only 18 seconds of the 10-minute
overtime periof remained when AL
Slesinger. Terp first attack, slipped
through a maze of men and sticks
and whipped a blazing shot at
Goalie Tyler Campbell. There was
a split-second of nerve-shattering
suspense as the Tiger ace reached
for the ball and then an explosion
of thunderous cheers as the shot
bounded into the webbing.
Back in Title Race.
That we'll directed shot catapulted
Maryland squarely back into the
race for the national collegiate title,
rudely jolting Princeton out of its
dream of an undefeated season and
to some extent off-setting the Terps'
loss to Army. 1t also assured a
throng for Maryland's match with
Mount Washington, national club
champion, next Friday night at
Baltimore.
Jack Mueller sent Maryland ahead
soon after the start of the extra
period after the teams finished their
regulation match stalemated at 4
all, but Larry Naylor knotted the
count at sail on pass from Elmer
Weisheit. 1t was nip and tuck in
the final six minutes before the de-
Gliding goal found its mark, al
though Maryland managed to con-
troll the ball most of the time.
Slesinger, counting on pass
from Ray Grelecki, and Milt VAN
denberg, taking another from Jack
Mueller, sent Maryland into a 20
lead in the first and early in the Sec
ond periods. At that juncture Jor-
dan (Smiley) Sexton, Old Line star,
was injured in crash and Mary
lands midf1eld went to pieces.
Princeton grasped the opportunity
to score three times and take the
lead.
Get Three Quick Goals.
Dan, Stuckey counted on a pass
from Dick Arnean, Larry Naylor
Cashed side-arm shot, and Arnzen
hit the bulls eye on long heave.
Maryland rallied after the inter-
mission and tied the score when
Jack Mueller scored on a pass from
Chick Allen and Vandenberg fol-
lowed an errant Mueller shot and
rammed it into the netting.

of the Japanese with the eastern

ca, as it would force these vessels
to 60 around Cape Horn.
The announcement was without Of
fetal backing, yet it was made at a
time when certain Nipponese news
papers were urging repeatedly that
Matsuoka, recent guest at Axis cap
itals, make trip to the United
States and try to improve Japan's
relations with this country, perhaps
reach perfect understanding"
that would guarantee peace.
The closing Of the canal, however,
would be blow to Japan that she
would not take quietly or without
reprisals, if possible. It was viewed
as the sort of blunt act that might,
with distinct intention, shut Japan
off from any further diplomatic traf-
fic with Washington.

Little Herbert Vas There
To Glue the Came A,uay!

On arriving home father found
a foreign coin resembling a quar-
ter in his small change, so he
went out to do a little shopping,
taking Herbert, aged five, along.
He went to the grocer's, and the
grocer, looking at the coin, said
with an air of surprise, ''Why, this
is not United States money!"
So the man went to the drug
gist's, and there rendered the coin.
The druggist informed him that the
coin was of foreign extraction.
"Good heavens, so it isl" ex-
claimed the father. 81 wonder

Don't you know, dad?" spoke
up Herbert. "That's the one the
grocer wouldn't take!" o

MEDITERRANEAN:
Also Important

The battle of the Mediterranean
was no less vital and no less active
than the battle of England. For on
the eastern front the British found
themselves, after the withdrawal
from Greece, with new problems on
their hands.
The Iraq coup left them with the
possible loss of the Mosul oil fields,
and the all-important pipeline from
Kirkuk to Haifa falling into the
hands of the Nazi-inspired Iraq gov
eminent of Gallant.
The British swiftly landed an ex-
peditionary force, shot it inland, and
sent reinforcements. Yet it was OBJ
vious that the trouble in Moslem
Asia Minor was on the increase,
with the French in Syria frankly
throwing up their hands and saying
that they were unable to quell dis
turbances on the part of Arabs
there. Turkey offered her good Of
fees, and so did Egypt, but though
there was religious unity in those
directions, there was little unity of
purpose, and it looked as though
Britain would have to fight for her
oil or give up and get oil somewhere
else.
The prospect also was dark be-
cause of the menace of German aid
to the Iraqi, which might make the
pipeline untenable even if the British
get full control of it.

STAIN
In Saddle

One of the most interesting devel-
opments, yet one on which the
analyst could almost write his own
ticket" was the assumption of Josef
Stain of the premiership of Soviet
Russia.
The dictator of the Soviet has
never before held political office, OPP
Grating entirely behind the scenes,
with others to wear such togas as
may be passed around.
The commentators took every DOS
sible view of Stalin's assumption of
personal Office as head of the Rus
sian state.
These views ranged all the way
from an "about face" on the war,
with Russia about to take an active
role against Germany and Italy in
the Near East, to the view of Keren-
sky, former Russian premier in 1917,
who said he believed Stains taking
of power might mean that Germany
has promise from the dictator of
active aid on the German side.
1t was a step down for Molotov,
who went from premier back to for
eign minister, post he held before.
Molotov was, perhaps, the finger
pointing to the real reason for the
change. He became foreign minis
ter just before the dramatic sign
ing of the Russo-German pact, a
pact which FASTENED the actual start
of the present war.
For it was the signing Of this
treaty that made Britain and France
realize that their hope of encircle-
ment of the Axis by land was vain,
and that they were really in a fight
for their existence.
The only official announcement
came from Stain, who said that
Molotov was being relieved only
after his own repeated requests"
London was inclined to some
what more rosy view of the situation
than that of Kerensky, saying:
Soviet Russia has refused to sign
a further German pact, and has
openly taken the stand that Bulgaria
was wrong in so doing, and that
Jugoslavia was right to fight.
"Stalin now takes command of the
Russian empire at time when
German drive to the east threatens
what Russia regards as her sphere
of activity in Asia
No positive statement there, but
general view that the whole move
is inspired by Soviet disquiet over
German advances toward the Black
sea. The British believed the move
meant a frank and active change in
Russian policy.
Washington, while silent as to the
real significance, if, indeed it was
known at all, saw three possible out
comes:
l. That Russia would merge the
Communist party and the State into
one whole, with Stain at the head.
2. That Stain would take over all
power in the face of a German
threat.
8. That Stain would discard the
old policy of Russia doing as she
pleased, and surrender to complete
collaboration with Germany.
