Nehez connected for three singles

Won by Maryland

Nine to four was the winning
number yesterday at College Park,
but Maryland's teams didn't hit
for a clean sweep.
The Old Line lacrossemen
swamped Princeton's surprisingly
tame Tigers, ga. furthering their
own national collegiate title am
bitions while putting an end to the
fees. But the baseball team could
MT overcome its Georgetown jinx
and bowed to the Hoyas, 9-4.
Maryland's netmen took some OF
the sting out Of the baseball SET
back by whipping Georgetown, 6-3
and its golfers had an easy day
against Virginia Military Academy

The Terp nine had an omen OF
i'll fortune when Outfielder AL Cesky
was struck over the right eye by
a thrown ball in pre-game practice
and forced to retire for the day
But none suspected they would
commit II errors, matching their

three runs and put Flynn in the
hole. But the TerpS came rushing to
his aid in the second.
Singles by Falvey, Flynn, Naples
DiLeo's double and couple of
Maryland errors gave Georgetown
four runs and put the Hoyas back in
the drivers seat. Doubles by
ODougherty and Naples, and a
triple by Falvey, all for G.. u, were
the games only extra base hits.
Princeton. beaten only by the
champion Johns Hopkins ten pre-
viously, gave the undefeated Terps
plenty of trouble in the lacrosse
game. but failed to show a scoring
punch. Maryland wasn't too accu-
rate, as nine goals in So shots shows
but it held ST. lead at the half
and clinched matters with q 3-goal
attack in the third period.
Buzz Hall was the only Old Liner
to score twice and Sam Hill OF
Princeton matched his effort
Princeton's guarding made il
difficult for the Terps to clear the
ball and the Tigers frequently took
it away from them in lively scrim-
images. Goalie Sam Ogden of

ton.
MacDougalI, Progressive party
candidate for senator, pointed
out that for IL years the Re-
publicans boosted of how they
would rush through anti-pOIl tax
and anti-lynch laws when they
controlled Congress. But" said
MacDOugalI, did the RepubIi-
can 80th Congress pass anti-Jim
Crow laws or set up perma-
nent FEPC?"
Turning to the Democrats,
MacDougall blamed the Dixie
Gratis for the failure of the Roose-
welt administration to Iegis-
late against discrimination. AS
for Truman, MacDougaIl has
concluded that Truman's inten-
tons of fulfilling his civil rights
program are insincere." Even the
fact that there is a civil rights
plank in the Democratic plat
form is due to the Progressive
party's existence, he said, adding
that Truman, the commander
in-chief, could end segregation
in the armed forces if he want
ed to-"

demonstration to demand the

In appointing McKittrick
Hoffman ignored even the Unit

According to Blatnik's infor-

itself for its services rendered to
Germany under the presidency

10 VFW leaders, Dewey told
Harold ]. Burke, committee
