Continuing their warmup for Sat-
urday's return match with Mary

to play host to Pittsburgh this after
noon at the Hilltop.

at their peak by hammering their
way to a 6-3 verdict over George
Washington, their second this sea-
son, although they experienced
trouble in doubles. Two of the
doubles matches were deuced.
Grainger's three-set triumph over
Eyster in the final singles match
was one Of the hardest and most
interesting of the afternoon.

Terps Have Only Two
Sports Struggles
After This Week
Nine Entertoinne 6. w.
Saturday as Trockmen,
Netmen Finish Action

Maryland will have only two spring
sports events left after this week
and both will be on foreign fields.
They are the lacrosse game with
Johns Hopkins at Homewood in
Baltimore next Wednesday at 5
O'Clock, in which the Terps can
clinch the runner-up spot to the
champion Princeton 10 by beating
the Blue Jays, and the ball game
with Georgetown at the Hilltop the
same afternoon which offers Mary
land a chance for revenge for a
81 beating taken last Saturday.
In the meantime the Terp nine
has an opportunity to make 1t two
straight over George Washington in
a game at College Park Saturday
and the netmen will wind up a sue
cessful campaign with two matches
on the road. Today the Maryland
racketers were at Charlottesville to
play Virginia and meet Georgetown
in their finale at the Hilltop Satur-
day. In previous match, the Terps
beat the Hoyas, ga.
Three Trackmen in Meet.
Maryland also will wind up its
track activities this week end by
sending three men to the Southern
Conference games at Durham, N. G.
They are Jack Gilmore, high
jumper; Bob James, hurdler. and
Sterling Kehoe, 2-miler. Gilmore
will be defending the title he won
last year and the other two are
sophs.
Heck Horn, discus and shot tosser,
and Bob Condor, half miller, could
have made the trip, but found duties
at home more pressing Horn would
have been the favorite in the discus
and might have set loop record.
Both James and Gilmore have
been practicing football along with
their track competition and neither
will be at tops for the meet. In fact,
Gilmore has not shown at his best
at any time this season.
Hunt May Face COlonials.
Maryland's diamond squad is down
to three pitchers-Max Hunt, Hart
ley Crist and Lloyd Roberts, the big
soph who has shone so brightly in
relief roles that he may get chance
to start one of the final games.
Hunt beat George Washington in
their last meeting with the Terps,
and, for this reason, appears the
likely choice Saturday.
Roberts has a knuckle ball that
has kept his own catcher as well as
the rival batters dancing.

Apert, Pinch Pitcher,
Brings Coolidge 1874

Coolidge High School may have a
new pitching find If ZAP Alpert's
performance against Briarley was
the tip-off for he held the Mary
landers to six hits while his mates
were pounding three opponents for

Alpert was called on when both
regular Colt hurlers were occupied
with the annual cadet competitive
drill and he handled himself like a
veteran, tanning seven opponents.

trips to the plate, driving out a
brace OF doubles, paced the winning
attack which produced seven runs

Conference After
Brilliant Win

st. Adams led the Interstate Ath-

day with two victories in as many
games as result of a 20 shutout
Of Landon School in which one
base blows made all the news.
A single of the bat of Lew Gran

the tight battle played on the losers
