There will be q three-day respite
before the jury passes decision on
the latest of Georgetown Uniyersity's
wonder fives." In another Of those
years where the Hoyas are supposed
to have it, basket ball speaking, they
made an exciting but not particu-
larry impressive debut last night by
defeating Denver University, 64-60,
in an overtime session in the new
National Guard Armory before 2,750
spectators.
The fact that Georgetown did not
score from the floor for IL minutes
and IL seconds was blamed on stage
fright, new surroundings, etc. Ex-
cuses accepted, but they will not
pass on Thursday when the Hoyas
entertain Loyola of Chicago in their
major preholiday test at home.
Loyola, winner of 20 games last
year, has swept its first five this sea-
son and has as It's star performer
Jack Kerris, the 6-foot-8 center who
was the Chicago Gardens most val
liable player of last year. The Hoyas
will have to improve in hurry to
get by this one.
Ripley Calm Throughout.
An indication that Georgetown Is
capable OF much better basket ball
was seen in Coach Elmer Ripley's
performance. There was no cane
pounding or Edgar Kennedy antics
on Ripley's part last night. The
veteran mentor was calm through.
out and explained his reaction afte1
the game by saying. IF We looked

was no use getting excited. I know

Return Bout Promised
|If WaIcon Would
Take Nob Of Gate
BY The A.seeiotsd Press

: NEW YORK, Dec. e.-H Jersey
Joe Walcott is willing to accept 10
per cent Of what would almost GER
tainly be a million-dollar gate, he
can have a midsummer return bout
with Joe Louis.
After hearing the New York State
Athletic Commission reject his re-
quest for a reversal of Friday nights
split decision which enabled Louis
to retain the world heavyweight
title, Walcott was advised that the
champion was willing to meet him
again, this time in Yankee Stadium.
The commissions decision yester-
day surprised practically nobody.
Walcott appeared with his manager,
Joe Webster, before Chairman Eddie
Eagan and DR.. c. B. Powell, two
of the three commissioners, and
was told that the body had no
desire to interfere with the exercise
of the discretion and Judgment Of
competent appointed officials"
Walcott Congratulated.
The commissioners congratulated
the Camden. N. j., boxer on his
splendid performance and said he
deserved great praise for his ability,
craftsmanship and courage In ex-
tending the hitherto invincible Louis
to is rounds, only to lose the de-
cision on a close, split verdict.
Behind the decision was an in
terpretation Of the State boxing
law by John P. Powers. assistant
attorney general. who said the juris-
diction Of the commissions to inter-
fere with an official decision never
has been tested.
Walcott didn't appear surprised.
He was asked by reporters whether
he had expected any other action
mo I didn't" replied Jersey Joe,
adding. but I was hoping"

ings, still was in seclusion with a

of the 2Oth Century Sporting Club
to say that he was willing to de.
fend his title again next June

Strauss said Louis w6ald agre,

for the second bout with Billy Conn

luctant, however, to settle for q

Visitors Crowd Hoyas.
A number of the fouls were for
blocking, which is moving in too
close to man and not giving him
room for body movement. The
Denver players crowded the Hoyas
time and again and each time the
foul was called.
Denver outscored Georgetown
from the floor, 24-20, but the Hoyas

When Georgetown finally started
to click it was the old reliable play
maker, Danny Kraus. as the en-
gineer. And Danny added scoring
to his repertoire last night, par
ticularly in the overtime period. In
which he counted on two set shots
and a foul for the Hoyas' first five
points. With so seconds to play In
the regulation game, the score tied
and the Hoyas in possession. Kraus
maintained possession of the ball
and watched the clock at the same
time and let the ball 60 just In time
for q shot. The score at the end
of the regulation time was 49-49.

DELAYED Reaction Department:
Metro Goldwyn Mayer, the public
might as well know, has never been
satisfied with the public's reaction
to "The Great Waltz" produced
nearly a decade ago. Accordingly it
/ is going to give the public a chance
to redeem itself by Te-issuing the
picture this month.
The company's feeling is that the
picture was released at time when
musicals were simply out of fashion.
There has been a sufficient indica-
| ton that the fashion has changed,
| that the fate of 1.-The Great Waltz"
might be entirely different this time.
This correspondent, who was in
Hollywood when the musical was
being made, still cherishes his ex-
perience of meeting Miss Miliza
Korjus at the time. Miss kor1us
who sings the Strauss music as no
one ever sang Strauss music IN the
movies, was recording that day.
Things were going amiss with the
result that she sang so long that
any other yocalist's heart and voice
| both would have broken. A Mt OF
admiration inspired us to observe
as much to Miss Korjus.
"It doesn't bother me-" she re-
assured us, I'm a horse" !
A wit nearby looked up, studied
Miss Korjus a second, and OBJ
served:
THE breed certainly has been
beautifully improved"
