G.W.InconsistencyDu Due to Foes
BuiIt-Up Talent, Coach Says
By MerrelI Whittlesey

great player in this Koffenberger
the greatest in Duke basket ball
history according to their coach,
Kenny Gerard"
Zahn told the Touchdown Club
members he thought his team did an
excellent job of bottling Koffenber-
ger last week when the Colonials
trimmed Duke, but he looked at the
box score and Koffenberger had
scored Is points.
Zahn was accompanied by G. WIS
captain, Jim Rausch, probably the
best dribbler in town, an excellent
floor man and a youngster who av-
erages close to 10 points game
Zahn took particular pride In
Rausch's early season record OF
making 27 consecutive foul shots
over a span of nine games. Arthur
said he had not heard of any better
record, anywhere.
Assured of Tourney Seeding.
The ColonialS are assured of q
third or fourth seeded berth in the
conference tournament, which
means they will not meet Duke
North Carolina or N. c. State in the
first round. Otis is becoming as
pessimistic as Frank Leahy, but it's
probably guise to forestall any
overconfdence on his squad. After
bringing the Colonials this far, zahn
isn't looking for any accidents at
Durham-unless they happen to the
opposition.
George Washington turned back
the Citadel last night, TAI, for its
eighth conference victory. The Co.
lonials were slow getting UP steam
but had 1922 lead at the half ano
coaSted home.

A vacancy was created In the
boys section yesterday when George
Washington High of Alexandria
found it necessary to withdraw.
The Presidents also were scheduled
to play in the Virginia State cham
pionship tournament, and a conflict
of dates makes 1t impossible for
them to play for both titles. They

Landon's victory over st. Adams
was its third straight and it's 14th
in IT games this year. The Brown
Bears had to come from behind to
triumph after the Saints had a
20-17 halftime lead. Sparkling the
rally was Gil Bogley who scored
only two points in the first half. He
was hot in the second, however,

honors.

The Lions are in second-place
Eastern Hockey League tie again
and also are the hottest outfit in
the loop as they head toward the
finish. They're almost certain OF
undisputed possession of second
place at the end, and there's chance
they'll be at the top.
What might hurt them in their
few remaining games are injuries to
Ken PARTS and Joe Ciuman re-
ceived during last nights 6-3 win
over Shawinigan Falls Cataracts at
Uline Arena. PARTS was banged into
the boards and hurt his head and a
wrist, and Ciuman pulled a shoul-
der muscle. The real extent Of
these injuries won't be known until
the result of examinations today are
announced.
The Lions have four games to 60,
while Boston, in the second-place
tie, have only one. The leading
New York Rovers have three left,
so Washington still has mathe-
matical chance for the title.

People ask me-" G. w. Basket
Ball Coach Art Zahn related to the
Touchdown Club yesterday, "how we
could beat team like Navy and lose
to William and Mary; how we could
beat Washington and Lee up here
and lose down there, and how we
could beat Georgetown when we fig
ured to lose and lose to them when
we figured to win, and the same with
Maryland.
cts because this season Is the
craziest I've ever known" zahn said,
land that's why I can't predict any
thing about next weeks Southern
Conference tournament. All OF
sudden most schools had an accu-
mutation of five years of basket ball
talent. Any of them can be aWtully
tough on a given night"
The youthful Colonial mentor
pointed out that his team; which has
won 18 games and lost 6 at present,
played it's first 18 games on as many
different floors, with various shaped
backboards, nonuniform basket balls
and other handicaps.
Desires Uniform Conditions.
And that brought up another
point which Zahn will stress at
coaches meetings. The G. w. men
tor would like to see basket balls
and blackboards standardized, so a
team wouldn't play off wooden
blackboards one night, glass the
next, oblong another and fan-shaped.
some place else. He would like all
boards alike, preferably oblong, and
would like to see all sports goods
companies produce seamless ball
that would be regulation.
The former Colonial cage star has
the utmost respect for all partlcl-
pating teams in the conference
championship tournament at Dur
ham March 6-9 and has seen most
of his opposition play, with the ex-
ception of likely favored North Car
olina State.
Duke will have slight edge on
its home court but it is fair f1oor
for all teams in 9,000-capacity field
house" zahn said. They have a

tector, who really had it tough. A
former Washington player, Colvin
had to beat back rubber all night.
