Friday a stiff serim- age was held, in which the second team fought the first eleven. The | Tech mentor gave particular atten- tion to the line, and, a result, neither side could gain much ground. It is_almost certain that Tech will depend_on an overhead attack to down Baltimore City College. The backs and the ends_are adept in catching passes. Joe Wood and Gor- don Kessler, ends; and Capt. Char- ley Pugh, Milly Price, Martin Gooch | and Johnny Parsons, backs, have completed an aerial system that may baffle the Baltimore eleven. Charley Barber, lineman, may get a chance in Friday's game. He weighs around 180 pounds, but at the first of the season he was slow and lacked ag- ressiveness. Last w however, ound him considerably improved. Tough Foe for Eastern. ‘When Eastern hooks up with Epis- copal High it will meet one of the toughest foes to local high schools. Coach Charley Guyon has improved his squad considerably during the past several days. His eleven verage 150 pounds against the Epis copal gridders. youngster, has been shifted from cen- ter to guard. Hughes, who is much lighter, has been given a chance at the pivot position, and thus far has displayed the makings of a clever center. _ In preparation for its game with Episcopal, Eastern will journey to College Park, Md., Tuesday to scrim- mage with the University of Mary- land freshmen. Guyon will not be want for kickers this fall. Bill Beck- wirth, Jack Smith and Schaefer have been booting the ball for considera- ble distance the last week Western's Chances Brighter. Western’s chances. to’ figure in the Interscholastic foot ball es have increased, now that Ray Sullivan and A rber are in the squad. The former has been tried at end and has played his position with speed and ginger. Garber also has been progressing as a clever end.

Whipped into shape under Haugh- ton's “Harvard system” from green timber, Columbia’s play was not im- pressive, but the team was handi- capped by the absence of several stars.

BY JOHN RE amateur athletics in the District of Columbia to be i | 1 A 1 stifled or are they to be de- veloped to an extent rightfully to . | be expected in a territory including la considerable number of sports- {loving colleges, schools and clubs? That is the big question pro- pounded recently by the amateur athletes here and the answer strictly up to the National Amateur Athletic Union. District sportsmen have petitioned that body for a charter organizing a new division of the A. A. U. with | headquarters in Washington that if | granted will cause amateur athletics to_flourish in this vicinity, they claim They also claim that should the na- i tional body refuse to divorce the District's interests from those of the present South Atlantic A. A. U. divi- rion, the game here would be knocked for the well known row of brick shanties, » it appears that with President Willlam Prout, Secretary Fred Rublen and other big guns of the National Amateur Athletic Union lies the fate of District amateur athletics. It may ibe known soon, for broadsides were hurled at the controlling board last week by w of Uncle Sam's malls land the A. A. U. heads are expected | to take the matter under advisement this week. Appeal Due to Rebuffs. The appeal of the amageurs here is the result of a series of rebuffs dealt them over a course of many years by the South ‘Atlantic division of the A. A. U, with headquarters in Balti- more. Time and time again Was ington sportsmen have clashed =w the Baltimore authorities without gaining a point. Always South At- lantic interests have meant Baltimore interests and nothing else. And frequently the Baitimore in- j terests have been confined to a ver: {limited field. Promingnt clubs there {have been left in the cold at times |by the arbitrary South Atlantic i board, and just recently a reactionary | group by clever politics grabbed co { trol of the division, ousting a Bal {more bloc that had shown signs of ! relenting and granting more substan- | tal recognition to that part of the division outside of the headquarters city. Appli several misston to. v B. KELLER. is cations of District clubs and Baltimore institutions for ad- membership in the South Atiantic division were tabled by the high-handed governing authorities but organizations favorable to them taken into the fold. This was the Straw that broke the camel's back 56 far as the District men were con- ormed. They realized at last that nothing was to be gained by compro- mise—that anything they were to ge' Tust come out of bitter struggle. Fight Is Renewed. So the fight against the sway of the s tiantic division over the Dis- trict athletes was renewed more vigorously than ever. At the instance { of James V. Mulligan, long prominent in amateur sports in the east, Co!- leges, schools and clubs here sent delegates to meetings and it was de- clded definitely to leave the Balti- more crowd to Itself. This was easy enough to do, but now the greater battle is on. The athletes here have no fight with the National A. A. U. Rathef, they esteem it highly and are averse to | breaking with it. But break with it they will, rather than submit to the | tyranny of an organization that can ‘nothing beyond the limits of Bal- timore city. It's a division entirely | fndependent of those interests or no A. U. here now. The institutions Seeking recognition { have enough prestige to command the respect of the National A. A.

Other institutions here also are ready to join the proposed division and interest in the project has been aroused in Virginia and North Caro- lina.
