First {. u. Court Win
Is Scored Hard Way

Catholic University's courtmen al
most got rocked last night, but
finally came through with a 1928
victory over Washington College. II
was cause for a double -barrelled
celebration, marking the Cardinals
first victory of the season and
avenging a previous setback at the
Shoremen's hands.
The rocking was almost admins
tered by the brothers Rook, Gene
and Jim, who sparked a drive that
sliced G. us 10-point margin to
three and was threatening to, over
haul the home team when the final
whistle blew. All C. U. men had q
hand in the victory. but the margin
came at the foul stripe where the
Cards cashed IA charity tosses to
Washington's four.
The Cards raced ahead In the first
half. assuming a 20-10 lead, with
Fred Connor, Jack Walsh and Don
Durkin bearing the brunt of the bur-
den. But when Coach Ben Zola en-
trusted that lead to the care of re-
serves late in the second half, Wash
ington launched the rally that al
most ended disastrously for C. U.

the visitors, who so to Navy Satur-
day afternoon and who may run
into the same streak of bad luck
that put the skids under Duke. The
Blue Devils were upset by Maryland
and the following day were nosed
out at Navy in the final two min
utes of play. Carolina has won 10
of its 81 games, bowling to Duke
at a 5-point margin and to Green's
boro Army Ordnance by one point.
Coach Heinie Miller is contemplate
ing a revamped lineup that should
add some firepower to the ring at
tack. Ken Malone may sit this one
out because of an eye injury sus-
tanned last week, but Miller has q
newcomer in Dixie Walker, who
may be able to fill the bill. Walker
fought for North Carolina Navy Pre-
flight and won a kayo reputation.

Look Ready 10 Upset
Loop Paceseffers
BY GEORGE HUBER.

FORM says Tech, Wilson, Central
and Coolidge will be the four teams
involved in the high school basket
ball championship playoffs the week
end of February %, but form has
been disregarded with frequency In
the schoolboy court game and a
couple Of applicants could be upset
and change this playoff lineup.
Roosevelt and Western are the
teams in position to turn in upsets
and profit by same and they will
be putting on the pressure this
week end and the next with Just
such a purpose in mind. With
everybody swinging, it's not too
difncult to manufacture one or two
upSets. Then there's Eastern, out
OF the picture itself. but still able
to toss out wrench in behalf OF
some one else.
Riders Could Cause Trouble.
Here's Roosevelt's picture: The
Rough Riders tangle with Central
this week end and with Wilson the
next. That's a pair OF tough ones,
but all the Riders have to do is
win one of 'em to get in a play
on for the playoffs. And the Riders
are not without hope. Central was
beaten by Eastern and Roosevelt
beat Eastern by 10 points. Sure
did. Central now is short handed
too. while Roosevelt has a fast.
well-conditioned crew.
OF course Roosevelt lost a high
scorer when Bernie Wolf graduated,
but some of his points were made
through stellar support. Central
also has dropped good player, John
KousteniS.
Western is Dangerous.
Western meets Tech this week and
Central the next, and must topple
both to get into the playoff picture.
Which isn't impossible. Western
lost nobody through graduation or
ineligibility and still has the max
ings of winning crew with a little
more help given Jack Castro and
Don Moreland.
Tech is weakened by the loss of
Andy Davis through graduation, and
Western gets first crack at the
Maroons as they try a new line cup.
Good spot for an upset.
Eastern is out of the race with no
pressure on it. Should the Ramblers
trip Coolidge tomorrow night, it
would be gift to Roosevelt or
Western or both, and would make it
necessary for Coolidge to beat Tech
the following week, a game the Colts
can figure on dropping and still be
safely home If Eastern doesn't spill
the beans.

9. w. Sports De-emphosis Seen
As Baker Goes to San Muteo

chant Marine Academy. He signed
Tuesday after a conference with
Comdr. Bill Reinhart, his former
boss at G. w., who heads the entire
Merchant Marine sports program
At San Mateo, Baker also is expect
ed to coach football.
No G.. w. Future Seen by Baker.
What course G. w. will pursue is
conjectural. Ray Hanken, one of
the best ends ever turned out at
the downtown school, may succeed
Baker, although a large segment of
alumni will stump for Tuffy Lee
mans, G. WIS most colorful back
who went on to greater honor as a
member of the pro New York Giants.
Baker decided to leave only after
it was apparent that George Wash
ington will not make an intense
comeback in football next year. Di-
rector of Athletics Max Harrington
has only three games definitely
booked and the material apparently
will be of dubious quality. At San
Mateo Baker will have the rank of
lieutenant commander. More i'm
portant, the Merchant Marines ex-
panding athletic program will give
him a long-sought opportunity to
prove his coaching mettle.
Baker earned wide reputation
as field general of the Colonials un-
der Jim Pixlee in 1882 and '33 and
was extraordinarily successful as
coach of Washington-Lee High
School eleven during six years in
Arlington County.
Joined G. w. Staff in 1941.
In 1941 Baker returned to his
alma mater as backfield coach I'm
der Reinhart and the following year
took over command of the team
when the latter moved up as director
of athletics. With material, me-
diocre at best, he led the CoionialS
to their first victory over Clemson
and scored a couple of additional
victories. But the war stopped
everything.
Baker entered the Navy in April,
1943, and served until last Decem-
ber. He returned to G. w. at an
increased salary to await develop
ments. He will leave Monday to
visit his mother in Texas before
proceeding to San Mateo.
