The big night of the Catholic
League. basketball season is set
for Friday. starting at Z o'clock,
at the University of Maryland's S
Ritchie Coliseum.
Georgetown Prep, whic h
played it's best game in losing a
four-pointer to ST. Johns last
week, will meet Carroll in the
first game. and st. Johns and
st. Anthony's, the leagues two
powers. come together in the
nightcap.
This is Georgetown Prep's last
chance. BY winning, the Little
Hoyas would throw fourth place
into a three-way tie among
themselves, Carroll and Con-
zaga. 60-49 victor over DeMatha
yesterday at DeMatha. If Car
roll wins, it will take third place
or tie for second and Gonzaga
will have fourth.
Regular Plays End This Week.
Only one other game remains
to complete the leagues regular
season. ST. Pauls plays at Priory
at 4 pm. tomorrow, but the out
come will have no bearing on the
league playoffs next Monday and
March l. In the playoffS, the
first-place team will meet team
No. 3. while team No. 2 will
meet team No. 4. The winners
will meet for the title.
Friday nights double header
originally was scheduled for the
court at Carroll, but was moved
to Maryland to accommodate
more fans. Chief interest will be
in the st. Anthony-St. Johns
game. Neither team has lost a
league game on the floor, al
though the TONES had to forfeit
their victory over Priory for
using an ineligible player. The
TONES are all-winning outside
the league also.
The Carroll Georgetown Prep
game promises to be a top at
traction in itself. Coach Bob
Dryers all-sophomore Carroll
team upset Gonzaga and beat
Priory by 9 points. Gonzaga
won over Georgetown Prep,
which nosed out Priory in over
time. However, the Little Hoyas
held st. Johns to a APPOINT vic
tory.
A three-Way tie for fourth
place will necessitate a playoff
game.
GOnzaga Slow Starter.
If Gonzaga makes the play
offs, Coach Frank Gilmore hopes
he can get his players moving
faster earlier. That's been a
lot of our trouble all along" Gill

tory over DeMatha. They just
stand there for the first quarter
or so. When they do move,
they're all right"
DeMatha got off to a 1877
first-quarter lead. It was 1875
until the final second when
Walt DeVlin, q 6-foat senior with
a soft, o11e-handed push shot,
made his first field goal. Devlin
made 10 out of his next II tries
and II of 16 altogether, to lead
the scoring with % points. He
fouled out with almost six min
uteS remaining in the fourth
quarter.
Devlin made six of his goals
in the second quarter to pace
the Eagles to a 27-24 intermis-
sion lead. The Eagles led, As
81, after three quarters. Tucker
Dunn scored IA points for Con-
zago, while high for the Stays
were Bill Russell and Gene Ebel

The United States had .
world champion woman figure
skater for the first time today,
thanks to the grace and skill
Of Tenley Albright, 17-year -old
Boston girl.
The victory climaxed a great
comeback for the little blond
New Englander. Six years ago
her hopes of becoming a cham
pion skater appeared doomed
when she was stricken by polio.
But she never gave up hope and
practiced like a demon as her
strength returned.
She was the United States
novice champion at 13, junior
champion at IA, runnerup to
England's Jeannette Altwegg in
last winters Olympics and re-
turned home to take the United
States title after illness forced
her to drop out of the 1852
world championships at the
halfway point.
Skating all around various
European champions yesterday,
Tenley dazzled a crowd of 1000
and the seven judges with her
precise skating and daring leaps.
All seven judges awarded her
first place.
Performing in q strong wind,
Teniey went through her regu-
lar four-minute freestyle roper
toire without a hitch. Her vic
tory gave the United States two
of the four championships de-
cided here during the past week.

Nervous at first. but gaining
confidence as Seixas fell into the

opponent in SO minutes to give
the AusSies a 80 victory and
their 18th triumph since the
series started in 1900.

the Yanks in the challenge

Although neither Rosewall
nor Seixas played ahove-average
tennis in the technical sense of
the word, it was a good match
from a competitive standpoint
and the crowd of 1880 that
filed every seat in the Kooyong

Right down to the final point

ner In the 10th game of the
final set, Seixas whipped into
a 40-15 lead on Rosewall's serv-

But the Australian had the
weapons to run it out. although

Rosewall deserved everything.
The youngster came back from
severe case of Davis Cup jit-
tiers which forced Capt. Harry
Hopman to bench him in the
doubles. He lost his first singles
match to Americas Tony Ira
bert and was so unfmpressive
that he was replaced by Rex

advantage, and that was that

arises: When will the United

This marked the third time

petition that a team was able
to come back from a 1-2 de-

occasions the victim was the

Backbreaker Follows.
The backbreaker came in the

the first point, Seixas sent a

which kicked up some chalk.
Bill Talbert, captain of the
United States team, jumped
from his chair on the sidelines
as If he had been jabbed with a

then in disgust.
Even the crowd let out a low
moan, and Rosewall, showing
hne craftsmanship, motioned to
the linesman he thought the shot
was good. Seixas proceeded to
drop his service and his game
started falling apart.
Although obviously lacking
the big service with which to
muster his attack, Rosewall
turned back Seixas with line
splitting accuracy of his passing
shots. Ken seldom went to the
net. but he scampered around
the court making remarkable re-
coveries and often caught the

the sidelines.
