THE E NG_STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, TUESDAY, JUNE 3, 1930. SPORTS. Stirring Battles, With Number of Upsets, Mark Scholastic Athletic Season TECH AND EASTERN ' WIN MAIOR TITLES Bplit Honors in High School | Series—Prep Teams Also § Gain Limelight. < BY EDWARD A. FULLER, JR. CHOOLBOY athletes of the Dis- trict area have all but finished a memorable year, a year teeming with drama in the shape of bit- | Serly waged battles in which the p: ticipants fought their hearts out, stun- | ning upsets and all the other (eltul’e!i that go to make fine, clean sport. In public high school competition | Eastern and Tech were dominant in the ( major sports. The Gray retained its | 1929 foot ball and basket ball titles and | the Light Blue successfully defended its ] .base ball and track championships. | Honors were well distributed in prep school ranks. Tech achieved the public high school | foot ball championship for the second straight season in a series packed with thrills, confounding the critics swiftly | and convincingly in the very first game | by vanquishing Eastern, the favorite, 14 to 2. It was Tech's dearest foe, Cen- tral, that gave the Gray its sternest | opposition. McKinley had to struggle | desperately to conquer the furiously fighting Blue, 12 to 6, in a truly epic | battle. | Prep Schools Do Well. Devitt, Gonzaga, Emerson, St. John's | and Georgetown Prep all showed -well on the gridiron among the prep schools. Devitt's record particularly was im- ssive, Just one game was lost by fine eleven carrying that school's colors, the opening contest with the husky Mercersburg Academy eleven, at Mercersburg. Devitt overcame Gon- saga, 12 to 6, in their annual clash, a game, incidentally, which has not been Tescheduled for the coming Autumn. Aside from this, Gonzaga's only loss was to _the Catholic University Fresh- men. Emerson made a good showing against teams in its class and played an attractive schedule, a high spot of which was a game against the Baylor, Tenn., School team in Clark Griffith Stadium, which was won by Emerson. 8t. John's, coached for the first time by ul Byrne, former Georgetown and timore Loyola gridironer, had an | unusually good season, while George- . town Prep also did well. Landon, a < new school, making its debut in sports on the foot ball field, presented a light team, short on experience, but long on grit. These spunky boys played through a four-game schedule without making a aingle substitution and surprised by de- feating Woodward, 7 to 0. As in foot ball, Tech came through in basket ball to gain the crown in dramatic style. Its ranks depleted by uations, the Gray quint was not red able to cope with Western, the favorite, and after it had lost two of its first three games it appeared that the McKinley boys were definitely out of the title picture. How they did a com- plete right-about-face and proceeded to win their next four straight and the championship is now a bright chapter in the sports annals of the institution. St. John's Is Consistent. John's. continyed the high-class 4‘3& on the -hardwood begun on the n. Gohzaga, however, defeated C-deumwtotn;tnmutm e somewhat erratic, played fine basket ball at times. Georgetown Prep also had a formidable quint. Emerson did fairly well. Devitt had a rather dis- sppointing campaign. Eastern held sway in base ball and track by a wide margin in public high circles. On the diamond the Lincol Parkers swept through to four straight easy wins to boost their consecutive vic- tory st in championship competition to 12. up in various meets, Light m&m{r&ck and field athletes ed aside Central and Tech in the public high school championships for-a notable victory. ‘There were several clever base ball ‘teams among the prep schools, includ- ing Gonzaga and Emerson, whicn rose to the heighls by twice defeating East-. ern, though it was not so impressive in some other games. St. bans and ‘Woodward also had nines better than & campaign ago. Devitt, hitherto strong in track, showed little in the this season, not pushing it with same vigor as formerly. George- town Prep, with Eddie Brooks, erstwhile Georgetown half-miler, as coach, made & serious attempt to turn out a good | track team with some measure of suc- | cess.

It closed activities {nnurd.ny when it lost its opening game the State-wide championship tour- nament to Towson High, 9 to 10, in Car- Toll Park, Baltimore. Hyattsville was playing as the Prince Georges County champion and Towson as the standard bearer of Baltimore County. Towson. AB.

Starting last Friday and continuing each Friday until the end of the fishing season, The Star will publish an entry | blank.” All one has to do to enter his fish is to fill in the blank and have it signed by two witnesses. The contest is open to all residents of the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia who use the waters of Chesapeake Bay. the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers and their tributaries For the benefit of those who did not see the original announcement. a dis- | eription of the prizes to be awarded each month again is given. To the angler who lands the largest fish in {fresh wn;z‘ will be given a Heddon bamboo rod, a Shakespeare level wind- ing reel and 50 yards of 18-pound test silk line. To the salt water angler who lands the largest fish will be awarded a Kingfisher rod, Fox surf reel, free spool, and 100 yards of 30- pound test linen line. The contest is open to all men, women and children. The only re- striction is that the fish must be caught in the waters of Chesapeake Bay, the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers or their tributaries. tractive feature of this contest is that anglers do not have to wait until the end of the fishing season to get their prizes. At the end of each month when the winner in each class is de- termined, he will be notified and asked to appear at The Star Office and make an afdavit as to his catch and re- ceive his prize. In this contest there will be no confusing rules and regulations. The salt water fish will include rock, trout and taylors, and it makes no different if the rock is landed in salt or fresh water, it will still be the salt water prize. Rock fish migrate to fresh water to spawn and as is frequently the case, a big rockfish will be landed in the Potomac River around Chain Bridge. But his home is in salt water. In the fresh-water ®lass will be the small and large mouth bass and pike, the other fresh-water fish, such as crapple, perch, etc., will hardly be found large ’nouzn to carry off one of the monthly prizes. Eels, catfish and carp have been eliminated. They & not classed as a game fish, and his is & game-fish contest. RIDAY Rod and Stream had as its speaker over the radio Lewis Rad- cliffe, deputy commissioner of the United States Bureau of Fisheries. The HE season for the large and small mouth bass and other game fish opened in District waters Friday. This is an important event for | tance and perhaps overshadowing this | The at-| ROD AND STREAM BY PERRY MILLER burden of Radcliffe’s message was that every angler should strive to help re- | store former angling conditions. He | said: “Follow the example of our Presi- | dent and devote a part of your vacation hours to making conditions better for the fish.” | PTHURSDAY afternon, fishing in the Potomac above. the Chain Bridge, W. A. Meiklejohn of 5819 Blair road northwest, landed a 20-pound rockfish and his companion, Joe Fletcher, hooked one weighing about five pounas This 20-pounder is the prize fish landed around Washington so far this season and is apt to be the largest landed this year. Meiklejohn says the fish put up a terrific battle and that he had the time of his life landing it. There is little doubt, there are a great many big fish |in the river at the present time, but patience is required to get them. Thes: anglers used cut herring*as bait. HE following telegram received from Wachapreague too late to be broad- cast last Thursday is given for the benefit of anglers contemplating a trip down to the Eastern Shore of Virginia “Blues today, 30, two pounds and under. One boat this p.m. landed three channel bass. Trout and croakers lm- ited. Good catches of sea bass and kings.” Another report reaching us too late to be broadcast last week came from Capt. Messick at #Benedict, Md. He said that he was out last Wednesday and landed 15 good big hardheads. 'UMMING up all reports received as to fishing conditions in the various | salt-water fishing grounds it would | seem that the fish are all around in | their favorite haunts, but that the cool weather has caused them to stop biting in shallow water. In places where the water is deep good catchings were made, However, when the wind switches around to the south and stands there for a little while the fish are bound to get hungry and attack almost anything offered them. One place that was more or less over- looked by the majority of anglers last season was the lower Potomac. Down offff Piney Point and Tall Timbers some wonderful catches of big rockfish were made. As a_matter of facty the purse netters left Chesapeake Bay and made a trip up the Potomac to get some of these rock and they were successful. Already this year some big rock have been landed off Piney Point and one boat captain reports that he saw large schools of these fish in the mouth of Brittons Bay and also in Potomac. E sure to listen in next Thursday over Station WMAL for the latest reports from salt-water fishing grounds. Next week this column pre- sents Mrs. Julius Kahn, Representative from California, who will tell about fishing conditions in her State. TROJANS ARE SEEKING MORE TRACK LAURELS By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, June 3.—Southern Cali- fornia’s Trojans, winners of every track and field honor for which they have tried this year, pulled into Chicago to- day in quest of one more title—the Na- tional Collegiate Athletic Association championship at Stagg Field Friday and Saturday. It was not expected that the whole S. C. team would compete, but enough were figured upon to speed up competition. A “century of the cen- turies” would result with Frank Wykoff, winner of the 100 in the 1. C. A. A. A. A. championships at Harvard last week; George Simpson of Ohio State, Eddie Tolan of Michigan and Hubert Meier 1, of Towa State as the topliners. Wykoff, Simpson and Meier have marks of 0:09.4, while Tolan is the recognized world rec- ord holder at 0:09.5. - Lee Sentman of Illinois, winner of the high and low hurdle events in the Big Ten meet two weeks ago, will be back after two more titles. He will, however, encounter the best competi- tion available if William Carls, South- ern California star, who won the lows in the East last week at 0:23.7, and Dick Rockaway of Ohio State compete. Sentman won the even in 0:23.7, and Evanston and took the high hurdles in 0:149. The latter mark was not his best, however. He finished in 0:14.6 {n the Kansas relays. Last year's quarter-mile champion, Russel Walter of Northwestern, probably will have plenty to do"in attempting to make it two straight. Dills of Missouri has done 0:48.6 and Nate Long of Utah has a season mark of 0:48.4. Wilson and Abbott of Notre Dame, Pete Bowen of Pittsburgh and 'Vic Williams of Southern California are other capable performers in the event. PEEWEES SEEK CONTEST.

I, has been named captain of the Navy varsity crew, which had been getting along without an official leader. The election had been post- poned largely because it was uncertain whether a member of the duating class would be included in the varsity boat. GIRL SWIMMER WEDS.

The 19 probable starters in the great | include two American entries, William | Woodvard's Scout Second and A. K| Macomber's Parthenon. Parthenon is a decided outsider at odds of 100 to 1 against, but Scout Second, winner of the recent New-‘i best of the “dark horses,” despite the | fact that the betting odds on him are 25 to 1 against. A victory for Scout Second would give Mr. Woodward the distinction of owning the winners of sake. Gallant Fox, which galloped to victory at Churchill Downs, is owned by Mr. Woodward. Tradition has placed Sir Hugo Hirst’s Diolite in_the favorite’s role at 5 to 2 against. Diolite won the 2,000 guineas and immediately became the choice for the Derby, the ancient belief being that the winner of the 2,000 guineas will win the Derby. As a matter of fact, victory in one has followed victory in the other in only two cases since the war. Manna in 1925 and Call Boy |in 1927 preceded Derby victories with a win in the Market event. Other _favorites include the Aga |Khan’s Rustom Pasha, Lord Astor’s iTl‘P“‘s. and Maj. J. 8. Courtauld’s Sil-| ver Flare.
