Few Pitchers Report to Coach

Under the dtrectlon of Conch
Pat Dcvereaux, the would-b- e pitchers and catchers for the 1929 'Cat
baseball team held their initial
workout in the Men's gymnasium
last Monday afternoon.
For one of the few times in history, a baseball coach was greeted
by more catchers than pitchers. As
a rule, when the first practice is
called there are always more men
out for the pitching position than
any other place on the team. But
times have changed. The 'Cat team
is going to be sadly lacking for
twirlers this season and Coach
Devereaux is going to have a Job
on his hands to develop a pitching
staff that will be able to stand the
"gaff" of the schedule of hard
games on hand.
At the present time Coach Devereaux has issued a call for the battery men only. So far there have
been Just ten or twelve men to report to him, three being pitchers
and the remainder catchers. Mate- -

The executive committee of the

for Southern Conference schools to
take place some, time this spring.

athletic director at the
of Kentucky, has expressed a desire to hold the tourney In Lexington if weather and financial conditions permit. This Is the first year
an official golf committee has been
named and is a step in the right direction towards popularizing a sport
that has found favor in the major
colleges and universities throughout
the country. Lexington is at a disadvantage in bidding for the tournament as the courses here are not
in good shape until late in the
school year.
The athletic department has taken
no steps toward organizing a team
but in the event that the tournament is held, the University will
probably be represented either by a
team or individual entries.

Night Football Is

Becoming Popular

Night football will come into national prominence in 1929, according
to an article in the March College
Humor. Several schools have played
football at night in the past as an
experiment, and so satisfactory were
the results that it is believed that
night football has come to stay.
At least it will be brought into the
national spotlight next November
when Coach Knute K. Rockne's
Notre Dame eleven meets Coach O.

ber as being the scene of the Demp- fight.
It will be Chicago's first night
game of football. There will be brilliant pyhotechnics.
There will be
spectacular devices never before
thought of in connection with a
gridiron contest. Just imagine the
team on defense trying to solve the
mysteries of the hidden ball at
night. It is hard enough to follow
the ball in bright daylight, so Chicago is expected to turn out to the
tune of one hundred thousand spectators to view this battle.
Two other Missouri Valley conference schools are considering nocturnal equipment for the 1929 season, and it won't be long before
night football will become popular.

CLUB PRESENTS CANTATA

The Georgetown College Club, ah,
j
organization whose personnel includes students of the college and
members of the church choirs of
the city, will present the popular
cantata "Joan of Arc" in the college chapel on Thursday evening,
March 7.
The cantata which is one of
Saul's musical triumphs, has been
presented with unparalleled success
in the colleges and universities of
the South, and comes to Georgetown lauded as a masterpiece in
melody.

a great football team. It's hard to believe but it's true Just the same. Coach Kubale then played with the
Praying Colonels and after a sojourn in Texas he has returned to the
scene of his early triumphs to rejuvenate the waning hopes of the Gold
and White after several barren seasons on the gridiron. He has earnestly
entered into his project and it will probably interest you to know that
other athletics have been suspended at Danville until he has finished
with spring football practice. This action denotes intense zeal and it
will not be hard for you to fathom to whom it is directed. Nevertheless
Coach Gamage is still drilling his Wildcats on Stoll field and he will
still have a team in the field next fall.

THE TOURNAMENT RACKET
Last week I summarized the conditions surrounding the Southern
Basketball Tournament in Atlanta, stating that the tournament was
under the auspices of the Atlanta Athletic Club and managed solely for
profit, predicting that Kentucky could better sponsor the tournament in
Lexington. The soundness of the scheme has just been approved by
Ed Wilder, secretary of the Lexington Board of Commerce, as he directed
an invitation to the Southern Conference to hold the tournament in
Lexington in 1930. That would be a boon for Kentucky in consideration
of the fact that the Wildcats should have the best team that ever wore
the Blue and White next season. The Mauer system is firmly established
and the entire team returns intact. There can be little doubt concerning the ability of the promoters in financing the tournament. Thus, the
answer to the situation will rest in the completion of the new Transyl
vania gym which will seat about 51,600 people. The tournament will have
to be played on a neutral floor.

"hot and bothered" to call the
day's workout a success.
Although there Ls a large number
of men out for practice, the field
ls quite open for newcomers since
none of the events are considered
cinched by members of the present
squad. Anyone having the ability
to develop along any line will find
ample opportunity to display their
wares on Stoll field this spring. The
team will probably be built around
the four returning lettcrmcn, Captain Kavanaugh, Thomasson, West
