Dixie Hopes, Tackle
Hoyas in D. {. Race

Georgetown plays Maryland at
$3.50 pm. tomorrow at College
Park in the feature game Of q
big college baseball schedule here.
The game will be Georgetown's
first in the unofficial champion
ship series among the District
areas Big Three, previous tilts

out.
Maryland and George Wash
ington are tied at one victory
apiece in the series, the Terra

40, yesterday at College Park
TO balance G.W's TO victory last
month. Georgetown prepped for
tomorrow's contest by trimming
Temple, Ill, at Georgetown.
G. w. Title Hopes Dashed.
Not only did Maryland's victory
yesterday tighten up the District
race, but it just about ruined
c.. WIS hopes for the Southern
Conference title. The Colonials,
in second place in the Northern
Division, have a 6-3 loop record
with one game to go. while first
place Virginia Tech has 5-1.
Tight hurting by Boots PAMELA,
former Anacostia high pitcher,
helped Maryland win yesterday
Boots limited the Colonials to
four hits and never was in trouble.
1t was q real pitching battle with
c.. WIS Bones Becraft, who
blanked the Terps last time, al
lowing only five safeties before
being lifted for a pinch hitter in
the eighth.
Both Maryland runs came in
the fourth. Eddie Crescenze
walked and went to third when
a G. w. error put Jake Graham
on second. Jim Moeller's outfield
fly scored Crescenze, and Gene
EmswellerS single tailed Graham.
Hoyas Have Fat Inning.
The sixth was Georgetown'S big
inning yesterday. good for five
runs as the Hoyas beat Temple to
chalk up their 10th victory against
four setbackS. The Hoyas collected
II hits of two Temple pitchers
while Tommy Flynn was stopping
the visitors with eight.
Frank Alagia was the big hitter
with two singles and a double,
while getting two hits apiece were
Moe zanger, George Hughes,
Johnny MoSkal and Flynn. The
victory was Flynn's third against
two defeats.

Eastern rn-ChamberIain
Coolidge
Games Spotlighted

Rain once more threatened to
wash out the District inter high
baseball games today. Eastern
was to entertain Chamberlain and
Coolidge to visit Anacostia in the
two top contests. Eastern and
Coolidge entered today's round
undefeated. Other games had
Tech at Central. Bell at Roose-
velt and Western at Wilson.

until May 19 in the last game of
regular play for both. In between
the Ramblers meet Chamberlain,
Bell. Western and Tech, while
Coolidge has a stronger schedule
in Anacostia, Central, Wilson and
Roosevelt.
Coolidge's So victory over Tech
yesterday at Tech tabled the
Colts as the biggest threat to
Eastern's hopes of winning the
crown for the second straight
year. Tech Coach Woody Smith
erman again had to call on work
horse Jack Pope for pitching duty
and Jack held his own until the
seventh inning. With the score
deadlocked at 3-3 Coolidge pushed
across two runs on singles by
Billy Koran. Oscar Carogliuian
and Norty Butler, a hit batsman
and a double steal. Don Cox
went the route for the Colts and
gave up only four sa1eties.
In other series games Roosevelt
edged Chamberlain, Sd, at Roose-
welt and Bell upset Wilson, 4-3,
at Bell. Pete Chaconas singled
in two runs for Roosevelt in the
sixth inning. Pete Tomselli and
Joe Kolley combined to hold
Roosevelt to three hits, while the
Volts collected eight. Bell came
up with three runs in the fourth
inning to turn back Wilson. The
Tigers were guilty of seven errors.
Eastern and Anacostia played
outside games yesterday. Eastern,
behind the three-hit pitching of
Danny Cookman. trounced st.
Johns, 1871. Anacostia and Pri-
ory battled to an thinning, A,

Nice Rockfish Catches.
The off and on warm days dur
ing this month have brought out
lot of anglers for various species
OF tidewater fish, principally yellow
perch, pike and rockfish. The
yellow perch and pike are still
somewhat reluctant, although oc-
casional catches have been made
of excellent pike and fair sized
perch. For the most part, how
ever, the perch are too small to
keep.
Those who have journeyed across
the Bay for Rockfish have made
some nice catches, the fish run
ming up to pounds. 1t is all bot
tom fishing with from IL to 1e
ounces of lead. Hottest spot has
been the Hill, south of Bloody
Point Light at the mouth of East
ern Bay. Bob Crompton called us
this week to tell of a trip he took
last Sunday with Ray Kelly ano
Bill Alexander. Boating with
Capt. Doyle Kendall they landed
48 rockf1sh, ranging up to 4
pounds. These fish were all taker
in the vicinity of Bloody Point
Light, mostly from the Hill.
The Maryland season for carp
catfish, suckers. etc., opened Wed

Herring are being taken in pound
nets in the lower Potomac and
other points in the Chesapeake
and all signs point to an early sea-
son. We have heard of one nice
catch of white perch taken with
blood worms from the deep holes
near the mouth Of South River.
Big perch should be biting in the
deep holes in salty and brackist
waters by now, but the spawning
run of these fish will hardly start
before another month. The shao
run has started off the lower
North Carolina coast. Commercial
men say the numbers of these fish
is diminishing yearly and this
spring the price of roe is going tx
be quite high.
