Harvard and Maryland displayed
about the same relative ability as

Both Of the Crimson's goals were
made by Joe Hurley, one coming
just before the close of the first
half and the other almost imme-
diately after the start of the second
part Of the game.
Maryland had possession of the
ball fully rs per cent of the time
through its vastly superior stick
handling, Harvard having great diff
ficulty in clearing after Goalie A

His work was outstanding for the

Bow, Ills, in Overtime
Clash os Couch's Son
Reps 4-Run Homer
BY a staff Correspondent of Tn. Star.


CHAPEL HILL. N. c., April s.
Maryland's touring diamond forces
had good reason to hope for better
luck in their two-game series with
North Carolina. scheduled to open
today, than they experienced against
Richmond In yesterdays curtain
raiser, when q seven-run rally In
the ninth, tying the score, was nulli-
fed by a four-run Spider salvo in
the tenth.
Maryland lost. Ills, and the big
fault was pitching. The Terps'
stickwork wasn't overly impressive
as they collected 10 bingles, but
while Coach Burt Shipley expected
to find no murders row hidden In
the roster he had good reason TO ex-
pect a better brand of twirling than
was served UP yesterday.
Max Hunt, who had been i'm
pressive in preseason workouts and
was expected to be the mainstay
of the Terp staff, started and
worked eight innings. Over that
stretch he was nicked for IT hits,
gave up three walks. committed a
balk and threw one over the back
stop.
Bob Webster, who relieved him,
was charged with the defeat when
he filled the bases In the 10th and
then tossed a home-run pitch at
Mac Pitt. jr.. rightfielder son of the
Spider coach. Pitts drive was one
Of the longest ever hit on University
Field.
There were some pleasing aspects
OF the game from Maryland view
point, however, not the least Of
which was Mearle Du Wallis three
hits-one triple-in six times at
bat, and the hitting and base-run-
ming Of Clark Hudak, q newcomer at
shortstop. Hudak had no fielding
chances.
AL Wheeler started for Richmond,
but wilted in the ninth and was re-
moved for Chester Bourne, soph-
omore southpaw, who was even less
effective. Cecil Jones, heretofore q
batting practice pitcher, halted the
uprising and received credit for the
victory.

chance and to all outward appear
ances he made good He hardly may
be blamed for being baffied.
Kennedy operated against the
Cardinals yesterday at st. Peters
burg as the Mats absorbed an 8-6 de-
feat and he was more impressive
than Sundra or Walter Masterson.
The run scored against him in the
only inning he toiled spawned from
an error by Third Baseman Stan
Gale. plus Harry Walkers scratch
single.
The Mats staked Sundra to a 4-3
lead in the fourth inning, when six
singles off Lon Warneke produced
four runs, enough to offset the Cards
three-run outburst against Steve in
the second inning. Sundra promptly
pitched the Cards into a "A tie in
the fourth inning and in the fifth
he wiid-pitched st. Louis into a
one-run lead.
That lead hastily was boosted to
IA, when Masterson permitted two
runs in the sixth inning. The Mats
added two runs in the eighth off
Clyde Shoun before the Cards made
their last hit and run off Kennedy.
st. Louis wnacked out IL hits, while
the Mats made 10, all singles.
The Mats were idle today, but will
meet the Phils here tomorrow and
