A DAY IN THE LOCKER.ROOM - His
Richard Montgomery Rockets had just de-
feated Bladensburg last Wednesday for the
second time, but Earl Walthall looked more
like a man who had just lost the NCAA cham.
pionship.
Walthall is young West virginian whose
Rockets had just won their ninth game in 10
starts, defeating last seasons Maryland State
champions, S1-70, in free-scoring contest.
The Rockets, working their fast break to
perfection, had come from behind in the last
quarter to win going away. They had domi.
mated the boards, grabbing 81 rebounds to the
Mustangs %. AS result, they had 80 shots,
and made a. Butch Isreal Kenny Doane, and
Dale Neel led the scoring with 25, %, and 20
points.

head coach agreed as he accepted congratula
tons.
''Say' he asked chow many points did
Tommy Barrett get?"
"Thirty-one,' came the answer.

piled. Last game he got SO against us.
We're improving"
Someone remarked that Neel had done a
good job, making eight of nine shots and grab
bing II rebounds.
He looked good. If he had made those
short shots against Blair, we might have won"
Walthall said, referring to the Rockets only
loss. mo, he didn't hurry his shots against
Blair He just wasn't making them
At this juncture AL Kyber, the Bladensburg
Coach, Joined the group. Kyber, like Walthall,

they stopped fouling and started running. We

"How many did Tommy get?" he

"Thirty-one," WathaII said That's

Northwood Gets
Job of SLOWING
County Leader

The meeting of Blair and
Northwood, two Silve r
Spring rivals, highlights the
Montgomery County league
schedule this week.
The Blazers and the Indians
clash at Blair at 500 tomorrow
night. Richard Montgomery
may have its hands full at B.
&C, and Walter Johnson hopes
to keep pace at the expense of
Wheaton in County League con-
tests.
In other key games, st.
Johns, on a six game winning
streak, plays at Good Counsel,
unbeaten Landon is host to
Episcopal, and Georgetown Prep
plays at Priory. The Good Coun.
sci game is scheduled for 800,
the other two for $3.50.
Priory and Episcopal were
both unbeaten, but played each
other this week after The Sent
incl went to press. They could
prove difficult opponents for
the County's lac schools.
In five previous meetings,
Northwood has defeated Blair
three times, one of the few
teams to hold a margin over
the Blazers. However, Blair has
won the last two games, one
this year.
The Blazers will be heavy
favorites. They gave one of
their finest performances last
Saturday, defeating Wheaton,
S4-43. Four of the five starters
made double figures, and two
other Blazers had eight points
each, making six men equal to
or better than Wheaton's high
est scorer.
Bob Windsor, Blair's fine re-
bounder, led the Blazers with Is
points, followed by high-scoring
George Davis with 16.
Richard Montgomery had to
go two overtimes to defeat B-CC
earlier at home, and expects a
tough game at the Barons' gym.
B-CC has lost six games in the
County league, all by six points
or less, and by now they should
be ready to win one of the close
ones.
Walter Johnson, an upset los
er to High Point last week,
hopes that Wheaton will still be
down after Blair's big victory
over the Knights.
In important games next
Tuesday, Richard Montgomery
has a 200 date at High Point,
and Northwestern comes to
Blair for a $3.50 game. Sherwood
at Poolesville at 2:30 will also
attract attention.

Yerrick Lost
MIC Ranked
9th After
Do0h Win

Montgomery Junior College
plays two montague contests
away from home this week fol-
lowing its win over highly rated
Shenandoah, 1867, on the
knights Takoma Park floor
last Friday night. The big win
gave MIC a 1912 seasons mark
and go Tri-State &c record
and earned them sixth ranking
among junior college teams in
the Middle Atlantic states.
However, Coach Don Conner
probably isn't as concerned with
his teams ranking nor his OPP
ponents of the week Balm
bridge and Ft. Belvoir - as he
is with the loss of his team cap
tain, John Yerrick.
Under the four semester jun
ior college eligibility rule John
becomes ineligible this week and
his loss will hurt. The hustling
play-maker from Blair High has
scored 1877 points in IL games
this season and hauled in 80 re-
bounds. His 1871 points per
game average is second highest
on the team.
Since Montgomery relies on
scoring balance rather than one
or two big point men, Yerrick
will leave a hole that will be
hard to fill.
Conner is considering about
five players to take his spot,
three who were not eligible until
this week. Getting the first look
will be Dave Ramsey a 6-foot-1
Northwood product, who has
been sixth man much of this
season, and Tim Sheehan, 6.
foot-1 from Carroll, who also
saw action earlier in the season.
The three new men coming out
for the first time are Roland
Green, 6-foot-1 from Gathers
burg, whose 72-foot, last second
shot several years ago against
Lackey High was credited as
the longest in Maryland basket.
ball history.
Along with Green are Paul
Kicker, a 6-foot-5 B-CC grad and
Pete Xeron, 6-foot-4 from VIII
son. The latter two could give
MIC the big man for rebounds
that Conner has been looking for
but whether they can work into
starting berths at this late date
is problematical.
MIC extended its Tri-State &c
win-streak to nine games by de-
feating Shenandoah. All five
starters were in double figures
with Ed Baruch's 81 leading the
pack. Baruch is emerging as
one of MICS most valuable
players as the season pro-
crosses. He has scored ISL
points for a 1927 average and
grabbed TIA rebounds despite
his 6-foot-2 frame.
Before playing Bainbridge-
one of the two teams to beat
MJC-the Knights scorers rated
like this: Rudy Rutelionis-192
points, 16.0 ave.; Yerrick-167,
1871; Baruch-151 points, 12.7;
Fred Spicer-149 points, 1875;
Kanny Kornegay-117 points,

Worships Sought
By the Associated Press

The Navy asked Congress yes
terday to authorize the loan of
16 warships to friendly powers
to assure command of the seas
if war should come.
Capt. j. v. Smith, director of
the Navy's foreign military as
sistance division, outlined the
request at a hearing before the

mittee and asked for fast action.
The bill would authorize the
President to lend up to Is ships

Six would go to NATO and Eu-

tries, six to countries in the Far
East, and two to "a worldwide
