Of what use are two fleet runners thelr linemen fail to show the way? This question is causing Central followers much concern due to the Inability of the Eastern guards and tackles to break the Maroon and Gray defense. Tech Eleven Favored. Some of the form sharks are in- clined to give Tech the slight edge, believing the Manual Trainers’ severe beating of Eastegn warrants such a stand. 1In fact, it does appear that the Techites have the more powerful forward wall, but in the hackfield it is a different question. Mike Gordon and Bob Williams are the speediest backs in the high hools. Of course, their ability to gain yardage will be nsiderably diminished If their line- men fail to function properly. However, the possibility of Gordon and Willlams running wild, as they «aid against the University of Mary- jand freshmen, may force Coach El- mer Hardell of the Maroon and Gra; to appoint one single Techite whose main duty it will be to stop these roungsters. The Tech mentor in- structed Charley Pugh along these lines last year and Gordon could not make much headway. High school followers know that if Gordon and Willlams face a clear field against Tech, Central will cross ihe Maroon and Gray goal. This ‘Hardell, though. may uncover some voungster he has been hiding, one who is well onto his defensive game and who can cope with the Central gridmen. That person may be Rever- dy Jones, who is the fastest player in the Tech squad ‘While Tech Is worrying over Gor- don and Williams, Central also needs to do _some thinking about Parsons and Kessler, whose drives against Eastern were big factors in thelr team's first victory in the high school series. The Maroon and Gray run- ners have been well trained offensive- 1y and they showed Eastern some- thing about advancing the pigskin. Tomorrw's game .will be Central's debut in the 1924 series, but the eleven has prepared itself in prac- tice matches against Devitt Prep, Swavely Prep and the University of Maryland freshmen. The Techites have met the Maryland yearlings, Baltimore City College and Eplscopal Migh, as well as Eastern in the high school series. Schools Great Rivi Greater rivalry exists between Cen- tral and Tech than any of the other high schools. In 1922 the Blue and White achieved a 12-to-6 victory, but Tech came into its own last year by attaining a 16-to-0 triumph. The match annually attracts several thou- nd persons drawn from the student sodies and alumni. No foot ball scene is more colorful and none is backed by moreinspiring tradition than a Central-Tech struggle. A record crowd is expected to jam the concrete tiers of Central Stadlum tomorrow. Probable line-ups for the two teams have been announced as follows: Tech—Jett, left end; Moreland, left tackle; McDonald or Goettleman. left zuard; Pugh or Rice, center; Dulin, vight guard; Minnicks, right tackle; ‘Turner, left end: Kessler, quarter- back: Zahn, right halfback; Wond.

Should Tech emerge the victor tomorrow, its game with the Georgetown school on November 4 would have an important bearing on the title.

If Notre Dame enters the contest emotionally cold against a group of | mad jungle cats, the absence of Capt. | Adam Walsh at center, acknowledged bulwark of the line, may produce a crack through which a Princeton team, averaging 15 pounds more to the man than the Hoosiers, might rush to an early lead.
