Caps Hope 10 Put End
To Losses in JET Tilt
speeioI pispoteh 10 The s,ar

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. l.
Road-weary, but confident of shak-
ing off their slump, the Washington
Caps open the second and toughest
half of their current trip here to-
night against the Indianapolis Jets.
The two teams meet again tomor-
row night at Chicago in the first
half of twin bill that includes the
Chicago Stays VS.. the Baltimore
Bullets.
The Caps are due back in WASH
ington Saturday night for an i'm
portant game with the second-place
New York Knicks that marks the
beginning of the home stretch drive
for BAA honors.
The Jets are one down to the
Caps in three games to date, but
are rated an even choice tonight.
Indianapolis handed Washington its
first league defeat this year, but
Ray Lump, key figure in that
upset, since has been traded to New
York. In return the Jets got Tommy
Byrnes, who always seemed to 60
we'll against the Caps.
The Caps lost their third straight
at Minneapolis last Sunday, bowling
by 84-79 margin as George Mikan,
rival center. hung up a new BAA
record of 48 points. But Coach
George Auerbach thinks he saw
some improvement in that perform-
ance and predicts victory tonight.

.0'TooIe Winner in Suit
As Jacobs Settles
BY the Associofed Press

NEW YORK, Feb. IA 100000
slander and libel suit by New
York member of Congress against
Promoter Mike Jacobs has been
settled out of court.
Representative Donald O'Toole,
Democrat, of New York received a
nominal sum" in an agreement
reached yesterday at conference
of attorneys of both sides and Judge
William c. Hecht of the New York
Supreme Court.
The suit was the outgrowth of
a word war between the Brooklyn
lawmaker and the head of the
Twentieth Century Sporting Club
after the second Joe Louis-Billy
Conn heavyweight title fight June
10, 1916.
Jacobs struck back with what
OToole called false and defama-
tory words" damaging to his repu-
tation.
O'Toole said in his suit the pro-
moter accused him of using his
congressional Office ito obtain and
extort" tickets to the fight.
The congressman filed a 100000
suit for SANDER and 100000 suit
for libel.
In the settlement Jacobs, through
his attorneys, issued a statement
declaring that a search of records
showed neither O'Toole nor any
one in his behalf had asked for
tickets to this or any other bout"

FWe-Teon Race
For Flag Seen
By PhIs' Pilot
BY the As.eclofsd Press

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. -
Phillies' Manager Eddie Sawyer
said today the 1949 Natisnal
League pennant fight shapes up
as the biggest IF" race in years.
Il can't see an outstanding
team in the National League for
this season." Sawyer remarked.
Amy one of five teams can
win the pennant.
If Whitley Kurowski and
Marty Marion are healthy and
able to play at full speed, the
St. Louis Cardinals can win the
flag.
IF the New York Giants get
pitching and their hitting doesn't
fall off, Leo Durocher might
manage himself into a World
Series next fall.
IF Brooklyn's inexperienced
youth doesn't make too many
mistakes and the Dodgers can
muster consistent pitching
staff, Brooklyn might be the
American Leagues opponent in
the 1949 World Series.
If Bill Meyer can get the same
distance out of his veterans as
he did last season and comes up
with a few good rockies, Pitts
burgh could win it all.
If Pete Reiser can stay
healthy and Billy Southworth
can find power, the Braves might
repeat."

Demoret Victory Over Hogan
Traced to Sharper Puttinq

ing back for the putt. Now when
Demaret takes a grip, he holds it..
He also holds the $4,000 first
prize money given the winner of
the local tournament, plus Is per
cent of the gate receipts from the
playoff. That, according to Bob
Goldwater, tournament chairman,
amounted to nearly $500 more.
Hogan took 81 400 second money
and Is per cent of the gate. With
this match, Bantam Ben. who does
his golfing out of Hershey, Pa, but
lives in Fort Worth, Tex, said good
by to competitive golf for while.
He's going back to his Texas home
to attend to some personal busi-
ness, but definitely will rejoin the
professionals at the Masters tour
nament In Augusta. Ga.
| Demaret had tried unsuccessfully
on three previous occasions to beat
Hogan for championships in 18-hole
matches-twice in PGA match play
events.
This year Demaret tied for third
in the Los Angeles Open, won third
in the Bing Crosby tournament in
addition to his efforts at Long Beach
! and Phoenix.

Skins Sign Szoforyn, Bolster
Line With Recent Additions

George Marshall expects to an
nounce the Redskins new head
coach within a week or 10 days. he
said today, but the signing of new
talent, meanwhile, continued to oc-
cupy his time.
Here's a new all-time National
Football League record" he crowed,
waving the signed contract of
Tackle Len Szafaryn of North Caro-
lima. IT'S the first time any team
ever signed its first three draft
choices. even when there was 70
competition for players. If this
keeps up we may not need a coach" "
Signing of Szafaryn, 6-foot-2l=
215-pounder, plus that of Dick
Flowers, which was announced Sun
day, made nice bag of linemen
for the Skins over the week end.
Szafaryn and Lauri Niemi, the 240-
pound Washington State tackle, may
solve the tackle situation that
plagued the team last year. Long
John Adams and Senor John San
chez had to carry most of the load
and found it rather heavy. Pro
coaches seem to agree that Niemi
was the Nations No. l college lines
man last season.
Szafaryn, who was picked in the
draft after Bob Goode of Texas A..
and NJ, and Niemi, was recon-
mended by Frank Dobson, former
MARYLAND mentor He was okaVed

Choice high school basket ball
fare is being served up in the Dis
trict interhigh title series today and
tomorrow in afternoon double-head-
ers at the Armory. Defending
Champion Central and first-place
Wilson are meeting in this after
moons feature following an opener
between Western and Tech. To-
morrow Eastern and Coolidge. who
also are in the thick of the battle,
tangle in the opening game, with
the second game between Anacostia
and Roosevelt.
Central's only defeat came from
Coolidge by one point, a team that
later. was edged by Wilson. Today's
game shaped up as an even affair,
with Central hoping for a victory
that would move it into second
place. Wilson may have a better
balance to its squad with two full
teams ready for action. but Central
also has the city,s leading scorer in
Jimmy Pantos, who has come up
with hot hands of 26 and Is points
in recent games.
Eastern and Coolidge, too. have
well-b balanced teams addicted to
the fast break. All starting players
on both teams do we'll in the point
getting department and it isn't pos
sible to hurt either quint much by
stopping any individual. Eastern
came up with a pleasant surprise
last week in John Selby, a 6-footer
who made his first start and dumped
in eight points to lead winning
assault against Tech.
Coolidge has some good news for
