SPORTS. Central and Tech Clash Tomorrow in School Championship Base Ball Series MANUEL TRAINERS ARE PICKED 70 WIN Game Tops Scholastic Card, but Four Other Frays Are Scheduled. H high school base ball cham- pionship game to be staged in the Fastern Stadium, starting at 3:15 o'clock. In most quarters Tech, which scored over Central last season, 9 to 4, is fa- vored to again triumph this season, | but a Central team is never beaten pecially when engaging a Tech combi- nation and it is hazardous to predict the outcome of tomorrow’s game. Sanford Ross, clever bespectacled hurler, is certain to be on the mound for Central tomorrow, but Malcolm Ed- wards, Tech’s new coach, has not de- cided yet whether he will start Tack Ensor, capable southpaw, or Spigel. Brown or Sklar will catch for Tech.! Heinie Gorman, all-high selection in | 1928, will be at first base for the Mc- | Kinley nine, with English or Collins at second; Wellens at shortstop; Heflin or Collins at third; Drissel in left field, Benner in center and Batson in right. For Central Jorg will play the initial | sack; Cumberland or Shriver will guard | the keystone cushion; Fisher will be at short and Brandt will be at third White will be in left field, Blase in cen- ter and Milwit in right. Four other scholastic diamond games | are listed tomorrow, but only one is| slated for a District field. Devitt is to entertain Charlotte Hall here. Eastern will meet Alexandria High at Alexan- dria in a_game originally set for the| Fastern Stacium, Busincss is to meet Washington and Lee High at Ballston, Va., and Emerson is to engage Episcopai | at Alexandria. i Because of its consistently good | showings in the annual Penn relays Tech High School’s relay team has been placed in class B for the carnival to be held this year April 26 and 27. This classification is a distinct tribute to the worth of the McKinley teams tu- tored by Hap Hardell, as outstanding schoolboy fours from various sections of the country compete in this class.

Georgetown finished second in the national indoor intercollegiates, but O'Reilly is not optimistic over the Penn relay outlook.

ONFIDENT | CUBS WILL WIN FLAG| CHICAGO, April 16—Two dreamers, | one whose dream came true and an- other who is certain his will be realized, were important actors in the Cubs’ part in the National League opening wdly,‘ ‘They are Willlam Wrigley, jr., owner | of the team, and Rogers Hornsby, the | Missouri farmer, whose big bat is ex- | pected to add the pennant-winning | spark to the Cub attack. “Well, I have struggled along quite a long time and I have spent several mil- | lion dollars trying to get a team like | this,” Wrigley beamed as he surveyed his 1929 edition. “But I believe it will realize a dream ' for me—a National League base ball pennant for Chicago. “Look at those boys. Not only do they have talent, but they have a will to win | and they are hustlers. If they don't | win the pennant-—well, we'll try harder next year. But I have a good hunch | they will deliver this time.” Hornsby's wish was realized several months ago when he was sold to the | Cubs for approximately $500,000 in cash and players. “I have wanted to play in Chicago for years,” the Rajah said, “and today I am here and ready to do my best to help in the pennant drive.

ERCERSBURG ACADEMY, which easily won top honors in the prep school division of the Devitt School track meet | last season, is apt to find the | task of retaining its laurels in the 1929 meet, which will take place Saturday on Georgetown University field, by no means an easy one. Newark Prep, Hun | Prep, Willtam Penn Charter, Franklin and Marshall and Episcopal High are teams which likely will make Mercers- | burg step to again triumph. ‘Tom Carr, who won individual high- point honors last season, will be the | main threat of Mercersburg again this year. Carr is entered in several events | and also will run on the various Mer- cersburg relay teams. Charles Bloor and Charles Kelley, the | former a crack all-around performer and the latter the interscholastic quar- last season, are Newark Prep luminaries. Tom Nace, Chester, Va., schoolboy star, is another crack entered in Satur- | day’s meet. | Jack Edwards of Tech, Calvin Milans | of Central and various others will up- | hold the prestige of Washington school- | boy circles. | PROCTOR IS DEFEATED BY WOLFE IN PHILLY PHILADELPHIA, April 16.—Joe Proc- tor of Washington lost the decision to| Jack Wolfe of Hazelton, Pa., in six| rounds of spirited boxing here tonight. | Proctor suffered little humiliation by the defeat, and the pair were immedi- ately rematched for a return bout at the Arena May 6.

Under resolutions adopted by com- mittees representing the two bodies at a meeting last night each organization will proceed within its own sphere with- out conflict and overlap of jurisdiction. For any college in good standing, the + Amateur Athletic Union has agreed to accept the word of the institution as the equivalent of a registration card. College athletes may take part in competition not authorized by the | Amateur Athletic Union as long as the college certifies that it is amateur com- petition and not with or against men under suspension by the Amateur Ath- letic Union. Before the amendments of the rules go into effect they must be approved by the board of governors of the Ama- teur Athletic Union at the annual meeting next November. The text of the two resolutions passed by the A. A. U. committee follows: WITHOUT HARM TO HEALTH SHOULD SMOKE CIGARS.=says Doctor Georges L. N. Pilon Commanding Physician of the French Army “Inhalation of tobacco smoke into the lungs is, I believe, the greatest cause of . These include evils attributed to smokin, certain nervous disorders, the various greatest stressing condi- to their tions of the throat and even graver ailments.” “A cigar can be enjoyed without inhalation: Indeed from my observation I should say LA PALINA is America’s Largest Selling HighGrade Cigar (OVERA MILLION ADAY) lts outstanding popularity is the best proof of its unusual quality..

S in order to oftain satisfaction from any form of tobacco other than the cigar, it is obvious that Nicotine and other nerve and throat-irritating substances get full chance to enter the system through the lungs, and so causc decreased _vi[a]i?', sleeplessness, indigestion and, in addition, coughs and throat irritation. Cigars can be and are enjoyed -without inhalation. Indeed, few cigar smokers ever inhale. They nl:l:oke the finfit tobaccfls, na::dr- ally grown and naturally cured. Th}; cigar's full flavored smoke is satisfactory to their taste, their palate, without inhalation. Then, too, cigar smoke is cool. No quick-burning substance is used for wrapper. Its tobacco burnsslowly and is further cooled and filtered as it is drawn through the body of the cigar. In consc- quence, cigar smoke never burns or dries the tender mucous mem- branc of the nose and throat. IN Alo in & vaviety Vi fi senting his college during term time | in other than A. A.

Smoke them ex- ively and you'll feel much us ficzter——quieter nerves, more itality, less tired—and free from cough or throat irritation. Tomake this test—with justice to yourself and to cigars—smoke La Palinas. Since they are America's largest sclling high grade cigars—over a million a day—you can smoke them, con- dent that they will please you. The sensational success of La Palina results from an exclusive and secret blend which combines for the first time in one cigar an extreme mildness with a rare richness of both taste and fra- grance.
