Marylands several varsity teams
look forward only to an even break
at best on tomorrow's varied field
day program at College Park.
From high noon until near sunset
the Terp campus will be cluttered
up with a colorful and noisy collec-
ton of athletes of all description
for an important adjunct of the
card is the interscholastic track
meet, in two parts, to be staged in
conjunction with the varsity meet.
Competition in the latter will be
more or less of a private affair be-

The Terp tossers, scheduled to
meet Richmond today in a final
tune-up for the game, meet Wash
ington Colleges nine in the baseball
feature at 2:3o and half hour later
the Old Line netmen square off with
North Cardinals S undefeated racket
ers.
Piece d resistance of the card is
expected to be the Maryland
Princeton lacrosse match at o'clock
which probably will decide the col
lege championship of the country.
Both teams come up to the fray un-
defeated in collegiate competition
and beaten only by Mount Wash
ington's potent ten in extra-cur-
ricula play. Both of the latter
matches, incidentally, were decided
by identical scores, 5-3.
Wide Variety of Sports.
On paper it is card that should
satisfy wide variety of sports fans.
Dukes hooflng squad includes
couple of Southern Conference
champions and is q veteran, well
balanced outfit that figures to out
run its host. The Blue Devils are
prepping for a defense of their con-
ference outdoor crown and the meet
well may be preview 9 of their
aspirations.
Outstanding are Warren Brown,
the quarter-mile champ; Mof1ett
Storer, dash man and sometime
hurdler; Cedric Lofts, a 2l-foot-
and-better broad jumper; Hank
Profenius, conference mile cham
pion; Wendell Lockwood, generally
second to him in all Duke meets;
Steve Lach. shotput titleholder.
and Bob Gannt, his most persistent
rival.
North Carolina's net squad is one
Of the most proficient ball-banging
outfits In the country, boasting a
winning streak of IS matches ex-
tending over period of more than
three years and side-stepping no
opponents. The Tar Heels are
headed North to hit their baseline
bullets at Yale and Princeton in
what may be their toughest as
signments of the season, but Mary
land, with Doyle Royal, Griff
Baugher and other members of the
cast at their peak after a 5-4 de-
cision over Georgetown this week,
hope to mar their record before the
Big Three gets crack at it.
Harris Everett, Ham Anthony,
Harold Mass and Jack Markham
are North Carolt-1a's four top-rank-
ing players. Between them they
lost only one singles match in their
first nine court battles this spring,
which is eloquent testimony to their
skill.
State Prestige at Stake.
Washington College, while no big
league outfit, Is one of the Mason
Dixon Conference leaders and never
fails to come up with its best game
OF the season against Maryland.
The Terps are we'll aware of this
and Coach Burt Shipley has saved
out his No. pitcher, Max Hunt,
to toss against the Eastern Shore
men. Much State prestige is at
stake in this game and both sides
have planned their strategy as care
fully as general to carry the day.
Maryland will rely strongly on
Milt Vanderberg and Ray Grelecki,
its leading scorers, in the stick duel
with Princeton, which lost a 6-5
overtime decision to the Terps last
year. They've been waging a keen
fight for individual scoring honors
since the start of the campaign,
and Grelecki took the lead, 18 to Is,
by counting five times on Penn
State to Vanderbergs one last We'd
nesday.
Princeton has won only three
games to Marylands six, but the
Tigers displayed a lot of power in
trimming Johns Hopkins potent
outfit, Al, after walloping Rutgers,
ITO, and Montclair, 1911.
Washington will be we'll represent
ed in the scholastic track events,
with half dozen public school
squads and Gonzaga seeking the
crown won last year by Tech. -Four
States will be represented in the
games, including Maryland. George
Washington of Alexandria. Wash
ington-Lee fpm Ballston and War
renton are Virginias entries; Mer-
cerburg and Franklin and Marshall
Academy are from Pennsylvania and
