% \ -~ -~ THE SUNDAY STAR. WASHINGTO D ONLY TRIO OF SCHOOLS REPRESENTED ON TEAM Burgess, Burch and Colley of Champions Given Places With Berger of Tech and Wilson of Western Also Earning Recognition. BY EDWARD A. FULLER, Jr. EEMING with dramatic incidents | that kept interest at high pitch | and marked by absence of the serious squabbles, which so often | have marred it, the 1928 public high school basket ball championship sories was one of the most successful ever conducted here. Spectators, players and school offi- clals all have reason to be thoroughly satisfied. Stirring struggles furnished onlookers all the kick the Winter pas- time can produce, tense moments gave players opportunity to make history and many of them did. and clean. sharp competition made it a series reflecting credit upon the officials in charge. Not a really weak team participated. and it was harardous to predict the outcome of games. Stunning upssts oc- curred several times. Every game was briskly contested. On all occasions the vanquished tcam went down with all flags flving. beaten, but battling to the las® ditch. Proves Its Superiority. Cenfral's team, coached by Unly Irving «Bert) Coggins. winner of the title for the lourth straight season. was ungquestionably the best combination in the series. It was a typical Coggins- tutored machine—flect, smart and game —truly a championship team. Its ability to come through with a bang at the proper time was impressive and its de- cisive, workmanlike triumph over Tech. @ team before whom it had previously fallen. in the cruical game of the sot, was elogquent proof of real worth. The fact that Coggins had only one soned player—Capt. Porrest Burgess— around whom to build his team. makes his achievement the more noteworth: Tech and Business. too. capable combinations and We Business were in no wise 3 Coaches of all these teams likewise had their handicaps and all did well under o galaxy of fine material that was at hand the selection of an all-high team was an exceedingly arduous task. For cach position there were tossers ‘whose prowess was so nearly equal and $o outstanding that whoever was se. lected the mythicai combination would be strong. Nevertheless there were cer- tain plavers who exhibited qualities ich particularly fitted them for posts on an all-star quint. Burgess Great' Player.
