. Scholastic Tossers to Have Busy Week : Five TECH PLAYS FIRST GAME AT HYATTSVILLE FRIDAY Defending Champions in Public High Circle Are Not Expected to Find Much Opposition. in THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €, DECEMBER 15 1929—PART FIVE. — Nearby Town—O BY EDWARD UST how good is this Tech teas Fans who follow schola: J They emve had a chance to see al in action. They will get their first peep at the new Téch edition Friday, when the Maroon and Gray basketers formally open their season, en- tertaining Hyattsville High in the While Tech is getting in its preparation gradually, so far as actual games are concerned, the the courts getting ready for the series. This week Business will engage in five games and Central four. Each will play twice in one day. in the pink, the Stenogs and Blue and White certainly will be in Jjust that condition when the title Eastern and Western also will for three games. Quints in the prep school group, like their public high brethern, will put in a big week. Emerson will be the busiest, being down for three games. Woodward and Lon- don each. will appear in a couple of contests, the latter being sched- uled to open its season in a game against a team composed of mem- bers of the school's faculty tomor- Tow. In all a total of 22 games is carded for the week. Plenty tlon is certain. Next week, there will be a decided let-up, only a few contests being listed. Games are scheduled every day of the week except Saturday. Tuesday and Friday are the biggest days. Seven contests are carded Tuesday and six Friday. Business and Catholic University Freshmen probably will offer the best game hereabout tomorrow. They will clash at Brookland at night in the pre- liminary to the Cardinal Varsity-High Point game. It will be the first tilt of the campaign for the C. U. yearlings, while the Stenogs will be baitling for their fifth win in as many starts. So far Business has downed Hyattsville High, a strong alumni team, twice and Strayer by a decisive score, and is being given a real chance for the public high title by not a few. However, if the Cardinal yearlings are as strong as they usually are they prob- ably will offer the sturdy Stenogs plenty of tough opposition. Tomorrow afternoon Business will entertain Woodward's basketers in the Business gym. Woodward polished off St. Alban’s, 33 to 26, a few days ago, but is not expected to do more than make a creditable showing against the Stenogs. Coach Charlie Guyon's up-and-com- ing Eastern outfit, which started fans buzzing with its 34-28 triumph over the husky Emerson five Friday, will travel to_Alexandria to clash with the high school quint there, and Landon’s five will open its season against a faculty team comprising really good talent in other encounters tomorrow. Several bang-up encounters are ex- pected among the seven booked Tues- day. Perhaps the Emerson-Business battle to be staged in the Stenog gym is the most attractive. It should give fans something of an idea as to the com- parative strength of the Stenogs .and R, . e Eastern doubtless will encounter a stubborn foe in Potomac Boat Club. The Boatmen have gathered a group of high-powered players. ; Western, which lost a 20-19 heart- breaker to Swavely Saturday, largely because its loose play gave its oppor nents many chances to score from the foul line, will strive to get back in a| Winning stride at the expense of Alex~ andria High, to be engaged .on the ‘Western floor. Central is not expected to encounter 80 much opposition in Silver Spring High, to be faced in the Central gym in the afternoon, but whethe - it can get by against George Washington Fresh- men is another question. The Blue and White has so far won two of its three games. Central defeated Strayer and Georgetown Freshmen, but losi to Forest Park High of Baltimore. George Washington's yearlings will be opening their campaign against Central. Y. M. C. A. Coliege and Ben Franklin are expected to stage a lively tilt in the Langley Junior High gmy, as are Hy- attsville High and Oakton, Va., High, which will fight it out on the National Guard Armory floor at Hyattsville. Central and Business quints are to see action Wednesday, the former at Brook- land against the Catholic University Freshmen in the preliminary to the get a line on how strong a team McKinley, the defending cham- ion, will have in the basket ball series starting January 7. of sparkling ac- | week, Christmas | ther Teams Active.

While Apaches and Celtics are playing here, Mohawks will be en- gaging the crack Irvington eleven | at Baltimore. 4 Three more attractive games also are scheduled hereabout to- day. They will bring together Northern Preps and Palace A. C. at Seat Pleas- ant, Md., at 2:30 o'clock in a game billed for the city 135-pound champlonship; Northeast ~Temples and Northea: Trojans are to face at 11 a.m. on Mon ment field No. 1 and Wolverines and National Press Building Cardinals are to face at 2:30 o'clock on Potomac Park field No. 3 in another game, bringing together sturdy elevens. Despite that they will be without the services of Dick Allen, clever quarter- back, the Celtics will ‘enter the battle with the Mohawks today optimistic as to the outcome. As the result of Allen’s absence the | Celtic backfield will be shaken up. Bill ‘THomas, whose dropkick from a difficult angle gave his team victory over the Mohawks last Sunday, is slated to start at quarterback, with Johnny Groves, for- mer University of Maryland and Quan- tico Marine grid luminary, and Johnny Harris at the halves and Coach Rube Hayman at fullback. Celtic rooters will leave Baggett's field at Alexandria at 1 o'clock in chartered busses for Griffith Stadium. Joe Sweeney, Johnny Delabre, George McCabe and Reds McCann arc the big the air. Apache backers have been cheered by the fact that Tom Farrell, regular end, who has been out of the game a couple of weeks because of a hip injury, will again be on the job.

Both have been tied twice, the Northerns by Petworth Pennunts and the Centennials and Palace by Northeast Columbias and Centennials. Both Manager Ted Otte of the North- erns and Joe Perrone, Palace pilot, re- port their elevens in good shape. Northerns will be out to avenge an 8-7 defeat handed them by Palace last Fall after the elevens had played two tie games. McClure, Wondrack and Edwards have been secured as officials. Seat Pleasant Fleld is a five-minute walk from the street car line at Chesa- peake Junction. Northeast Temples and Northeast Trojans will renew a neighborhood fued when they clash.

This action was decided upon at the first meeting of the school year of the “H” Club when Frank Hawkins, vice president, who presided in the absence of President Donald Bartoe, appointed a committee to discuss the matter with the athletic council. Ernest Michaelson, Stanley Lewis and John Haney make up the committee. It was decided by the club to hold a dance after Christmas, at a date to be announced later, for the benefit of the club.
