Season Ever Under
Tute|age Of Ripley

Coach Elmer Ripley's victory
percentage at Georgetown dropped
from 1858 to .583 following his
poorest season in his 10-year
coaching term at the Hilltop.
Georgetown's 65-57 defeat at
the hands of Villanova last night
was it's 18th against 9 victories.
Previously no Ripley-coached
team ever had lost two more
games than it had won.
The Hoyas contrived to tie for
the mythical District title by beat
ing Maryland twice and splitting
tWo-game series with George
Washington. Otherwise the
Hoyas found their schedule of
major Eastern opponents a bit
too tough.
The team was handicapped by
a lack of height, and most of its
scoring was left up to Ray Corley,
who played his last game for the
Hoyas last night in Philadelphia,
and Tommy OKeefe. When
Corley and O'Keefe weren't hit

Spring Football Drills

With a couple hundred pig
skinners already toiling at Mary

scene in this area took on an
even buster aspect today as Coach
Bo Rowland Of George Washing
ton summoned his rockies for
their initial drill. The Colonial

the men before calling out the
vets for full-dress rehearsals.
Coach Jim Tatum counted lit

'"The loss Of 10 1ettermen leaves
us in q hole" said the TerpI
coach. Replacing Harry Bonk,
our best blocking back, will be- a
Job, and we may have trouble
digging up enough guards to re-
place those we're losing"
One Of Tatum's biggest worries
concerns 248-pound Jim Goodman,
o tackle, who is undecided about
playing this season. He was bull
wark in the line.
Mo Modzelewski, freshman full
back sensation, reported yesterday
and looked good in comparison
with the remainder of the squad.
Modzelewski dwarfs other back
field candidates, giving rise to a
suspicion that Tatum again will
be plagued by lack of heft in the
ball-carrying department.

Problems arose at the 35th
annual meeting of the District
Golf Association last night that
will not be repeated if Martin F.
Mccarthy, outgoing president OF
the association, puts over his mer-
ger plan.
It was the same old story of too
many tournaments for the avail
able dates. The Middle Atlantic
Golf Association and the Women S
District Golf Association have
named their tournament dates.
The District fitted in it's tourna-
ment fixtures, three clubs asked
for invitation dates and by that
time some of the clubs were taking
what was left over.
Still to be announced are the
1949 tournament schedules of the
Maryland State Golf Association,
this sections most active group,
and the Middle Atlantic PGA. To
avoid conflicts, these two groups
will have to schedule their major
events on unoccupied dates, some
of them not too popular. It's
simply race of the overlapping
golf groups to see which one can
name it's schedule first and get the
preferred dates.
Merger in Prospect.
Mccarthy. who as president OF
the Maryland group has seen two
sides of the problem for the past
year, wants all the associations
to come under one roof. This
has been a hot potato for years.
but Mccarthy has done more than
talk about it. He has engineered
meetings in Baltimore and Wash
ington between officers of the
various groups and, surprisingly
enough, everybody seems to be in
accord.
Some of the clubs-Washington
Golf and Country Club, for in
stance-pay dues to four organ
izations, the Maryland, District,
Middle Atlantic and Virginia

not include the Virginia associa-
ton, but he would merge the

A club would pay dues to one

meeting would be sufficient, in
stead of three. There would be a
clearing house for dates, and the
conflicts and the disputes would
be out. Each section could re-
tain it's District and Maryland

run by subcommittee. Mccarthy
is going to work on it all season
