Fine Record Missed
By 1erp Boxers as
Gilmore Hits Deck
His Knockdown Only One
Suffered by Old Line
Ringmon in Season

When Lyman Higdon dumped
Jack Gilmore for a count in the
Maryland North Carolina ring
match last week he ruined record
almost without parallel in college
boxing. Until that time no Mary
lander had been on the deck in
seven matches, although Maryland
had lost three fights on technical
knockouts and had a couple of
others interrupted because of cut
eyes.
There is no quick, accurate way
of checking the record, but it al
most certainly would have been the
first time in the games history a
team had survived full season
without at least one knockdown.
Coach Bobby Goldstein, barking
back to the days when Virginia
ruled the roost in the Southern
Conference and Johnny La Rowe
was turning out his own brand of
'murderers row." couldn't recall a
Virginia team, nor any other, that
boasted such a record.
Weakened by Shedding Weight.
But for a small matter of two
pounds Gilmore might not have
gone down and Maryland would
have chalked up record. Johnny,
ha that
weight. the first time this year any
Terp was bothered by such trouble,
and spent the afternoon of the
match boiling out Consequently,
he was weaker than a second cup
of coffee.
"But I give him credit for coming
back after the knockdown and max
ing a fight of it," Goldstein said
today. He won the first two
rounds by good margins, thought,
and almost kayoed Higdon after be-
ing floored. He made such a strong
finish I thought he won anyway.
The irony of it is that the punch
that f1oored him knocked him cold.
He actually was out on his feet
when he got up, and then he almost
kayoed Higdon"
Maryland's best individual record
(surprise, surprise) was made by
Hotsy Alperstein, who racked up six
consecutive victories. climaxing the
season with a knockout over Earl
Burton last week. 1t was the first
kayo of his career.
Terps Await Eastern Meet.
In all, the Terps won four and

morrow, when work will be re-
sumed for the Eastern intercollegi-

contract which was to have run
through 1916.
DR.. Stevens. an outstanding bone
specialist with practices both here
and in New Haven, Conn, said he
had no immediate football plans and
might join the Army.
Recently he offered to coach the
Violets during the present financial
emergency without pay if the school
would retain the sport. He labeled
the 194l freshman squad as "the
first in eight years on a par with
those of our opponents"
No 1912 Schedule Announced.
No 1912 schedule had been an
nounced although games had been
arranged with Fordham, the Violets'
intercity rival; Missouri, Syracuse
and Lafayette. All New York games
were played in the Yankee Stadium.
The university council, governing
body of that institution that has a
student enrolment of 35,O63, said a
determined effort would be made
to retain all other sports. The Violet
basket ball team is one of the best
in the New York City area while the
track team includes Leslie Mac
Mitchell, famed miller.

Wilson Five Unhappy
Over Tourney Bid
II Can't Accept
Gets Invite to Durhom,
Where Other Teums
Would GiudIy Go

Wilson High basket ball team TO-
day finds itself in the strange po-
sition of having a formal tourna-
men invitation it can't accept but
which lot of other schools would
like to have but can't get.
Coach Tony Kupka of the inter-
high champions received a bid yes
terday to the Duke-Durham South
ern high school championship tour
nament to be held March 13 and II.
School rules, however, do not per-
NIT a team to play post-season
games without permission of the
superintendent Of schools, and DR..
Frank Ballou has said that no per-
mission will be granted.
In recent years, Eastern, Roose-
welt and Central cage teams have
participated in poSt-seaSon tour
neys, but last fall public school Off
cials announced no more such trips
would be permitted.
Meanwhile there are several other
school teams in this area ready to
hop the next train South If an in
vitation comes.
In the event Wilson is unable to
obtain the needed permission, which
seems foregone, Duke Durham off,
cials are asking that Roosevelt at
least be permitted to enter this sea-
son to defend the championship they
won last year.
The disappointed Wilson student
body was informed of these matters
at big assembly yesterday, held to
honor the team which brought the
Tigers their first major sports
championship. High spot of the
assembly was the ceremony of affix-
ing claw to the Wilson Tiger. A
claw is added every time a team
there wins title and the only previ-
Gus claw came with the schoolboy
golf crown two years ago.

Duke again appears the principal
threat to North Cardinals title aspi-
ration. The fact, if Moffat Stored

probably would hold the favorite's
role.
Stored injured a knee while prac-
ticing for the Rose Bowl football

won't participate in either the 60
yard dash or the high hurdles
events, which he almost certainly
would win if in top form.
Without Stored, Duke may be
Hard-pressed by Maryland for run
ner-up honors. The Terps finished
third last year. Thomas Jefferson
High School, which won the
scholastic division last year, will get
plenty of competition from Jefferson

from two or three other schools.

Carolina, who started the indoor
games back in 1880, describes the
Roanoke team as "a very good
prospect"
