THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, B O, OCTOBER 12, 1930—PART FIVE. School Grid Title Series Begins Friday : Capital City League Starts Today TECH, TITLE HOLDER, TO LAY BUSNESS Six Other Contests Slated for Youthful Elevens During Week. BY EDWARD A. FULLER, JR. HEY get going this week. Play in the public high school championship foot ball series| starts next Friday afternoon,| when Tech, the defending title holder, | and Business come to grips in the Cen-| tral Stadium, starting at 3:45 o'clock., Once more it appears certain that the battle for the flag will be among Tech, Central and Eastern, with Busi- | ness and Western fighting it out for cellar honors. Tech is our choice to win. Central and Eastern doubtless will offer McKinley tough battling, but it’s our bet that the Maroon and Gray will be hoisted when the series is over. Tech and Central both have first-rate backfields, but the line of each is un- certain, However, it appears that the Gray forward wall is developing somewhat better than Central's. It may be that & superior line will give Tech the title. Again, Central, which has not shown as well in pre-season encounters as was expected, may strike a better stride. Eastern, though its material is green, s coming along nicely and may offer Tech and Central plenty of fight. Wes- tern and Business, though each has shown plenty of pluck, is without suffi- cient seasoned material to figure promi- nently in the race. Tech Team Consistent. ‘Tech will be striving for its fourth clear-cut series win in five seasons. The Gray, in addition to gaining top honors last Autumn, finished ahead of the pack in 1928, and also in 1926. In 1927 it tied for the championship with Central and Eastern. There is a real probability that the annual Tech-Central battle, ever the most glamorous of the set, will go far toward settling the title. Here is the complete series schedule, all the games to be played in the Cen- tral Stadium, starting at 3:45 o'clock. October 17—Business vs, Tech. October 21—Central vs. Western. October 24—Business vs. Eastern. October 28—Central vs. Tech, October 31—Eastern vs. Western. November 4—Business vs. Central. November T—Tech vs. Western. November 11—Central vs. Eastern. wNovember 14—Bsiness vs. Wes- . November 18—Eastern vs. Tech. Aside from the Tech-Business game six other matches are scheduled during the week. Western will engage Woodward on the Monument Grounds Wednesday afternoon, in the week's opening tilt and the first engagement of the cam- paign for Woodward. Eastern will entertain Landon in the Lincoln Parkers Stadium Friday, while | St. John'’s and St. Albans are playing in Baltimore, the former against Cal- vert Hall, and the latter against St. Paul’s, Devitt will engage George Washing- ton Freshmen on the Tidal Basin field Saturday, while Emerson and Staunton Military Academy are having it out at Staunton.

ITH play in the Capital City League getting un- der way and three of the Big Four among the unlimited class elevens carded for action, there will be a deal of activity today on the part of Dis- trict sandlot foot ball teams. In the headline attraction the championship Apaches will make their first home appearance of the campaign, playing host to the Tacony Aces of Philadelphia in Griffith Stadium at 2:30 o'clook. It will be the second game or tne season for the Little Indians, who walloped Virginia A. C., 37 to 0, last Sunday in Alexardria. Last vear Apaches took the measure of the Aces, 18 to 0, and are figured likely to repeat, Bits Clifford, de- pendable center, will be out of the Apaches’ line-up because of a lacerated arm. Swifty Sinclair, former Army player, will make his debut at quarter- back for the Little Indians. While Apaches are showing before the home folks Northerns will be open- ing_their schedule against Irvingtons st Baltimore and_ Knickerbockers. will be starting activities against the Coun- | cilor eleven in Richmond. Mohawks, the other member of the Big Four, will idle today, but will take the gridiron in Griffith Stadium Wed- nesday night against the Lansdowne eleven of Baltimore. It will be the first nocturnal tilt for a District in- dependent grid team. Just last Bunm Lansdowne took the Hawks, 6 to 0, the Indians are keen to even scores. Seven games are listed for the Capital City League opening, three in the un. limited class and four in the 180- pound group. St. Stephen’s, defending champions the unlimited loop, will Marions on the Silver lDl’!nlenfl: at 3 o'clock.

Ty says | that e does not believe that there is | the difference between the two leagues | that the results of the last few years | indicate. He thinks those results are partially due to a difference in pitching systems. A world series is 75 per cent pitching. . “The American League,” said Cobb, “is a fast-ball League. The National League is a curve-ball league. Of course, they use curves and speed in both organizations, but I think there are more good fast-ball pitchers in the American. | “Now I4now from my own experience that a batter looking for a curve and getting a fast ball is more crossed up than a batter who is set for a fast ball and gets a curve. The best fast ball pitcher of the lot was Walter Johnson and nobody hit him much when he was right. On a cloudy day you sometimes couldn’t see a ball Johnson threw.” The batter walloped at the sphere Tq make a jour-base hit, And was not very pleased to hear It strixe the catchers mitt.

The following game was played in the international team match at Ham- burg. When first published in the British papers just after it was played, Dr. Alekhine’s twenty-fourth move* was commented on as a mistake or over- sight.

You see, the up- | iceep of the high commisisoner of base have been very brief indeed, shrinking up the gate receipts and keeping them down to a minimum. If this series had been over in four straight games, there might have been some difficulty in supporting Judge Lan- dis in the manner to which he had be- come accustomed since taking over the dictatorship of the national pastime. The commissioner has used every means of economy. He has cut his Visits to the barber shop to one period during the vear and had been wearing the same soft ship.” But with two extra games played | this year the commissioner will loosen up and spend a little something in the barber trade and make an investment in the millinery industry. This will idge of the commissioners of base ball. Heydler Deeply Hurt. HIS being the fourth year in succes- sion that an American League team has beaten a National League team in the world serles, the boys are start- ing to talk about it for the want of & more lively subject. Mr. John Arnold Heydler, president of the National League, appears to be deeply hurt when some of Lfie boys intimate that the Na- tional League now appears to be a Class A or minor league. With Mr. Heydler base ball is a serious matter, particularly where it concerns the Na- tional League, and the sensitive head of the National League is suffering great mental anguish over the results of the last four series. One project is on foot to refute this insinuation. It is proposed to hold city series in all of the cities where there are both American League and National League teams. As for the cities that have only one team, these are to be paired, American League teams against National League teams. While the world series is being | played there would be games between | the other teams, arranged on the same basis and under the same control. When all of these games were played the results would be tabulated and a world champlonship league would be determined. ‘The scheme sounds logical and plaus- ible enough. The gate receipts would be distributed in the same manner as the gate receipts of the world series. In this manner there would be some as- surance that Commissioner Landis and his office force would have enough to tide them over the Winter.

The End of a Feud. HE feud which has been raging be tween Mr. Mickey Cochrane of the Athletics and Mr. Burleigh Grimes of the Cardinals through this series was ended just before the last game. On the opening day, in the heat of the con- | flict for the winner's certified check, | Mr. Grimes made a remark that cut | Mr. Cochrane to the quick. | | F | | : | ; BURLEIGH GRIMI Walking up to Mr. Cochrane, Mr. Grimes said: “If I had a pointer dog that looked like you I would take him | out and shoot him.” Being a lover of animals, Mr. Coch- rane was shocked. He made no retort in words, but he smote Mr. Grimes for a home run after the full significance of this crack got home. The suggestion that a pointer dog should be shot at this time of the year, With the quail shooting about to open, roused the ire of Mr. Cochrane to such a pitch that it did not cool down for the duration of the series. ‘The Cardinals, backing Mr. Grimes on the policy that, right or wrong, he was their pitcher, made derisive re- marks concerning Mr. Cochrane’s ears during the series. But though the ears, as the Cardinals hinted, were adequate enough to hear even a whisper from the Cardinals’ bench, Mr. Cochrane made | no verbal retort. He said what was in his mind with bace hits, which, after all, is the best language for a Playcr in’ the world series, or even in an everyday game, to use. But before the final game Mr, Grimes was overcome with remorse for the crack that he made. Approaching Mr. Cochrane, he said: “I'm sorry, Mickey, for what I said about you and the pointer dog. I take it back. If I had a pointer dog that looked like you, I'd give him away. I'm fond of dogs.” Mickey accepted the apology and they shook hands. Magnanimous athe letzs always are ready to forget what is said in the heat of the conflict. | | i | Concordi | Bowling Green, 1 g“Centrul College, 19; Chicago U., St. Mary's, 21; Bethany, 6.
