FULLER, JR. OME first-rate pitching should S mark the public high school that opens Friday afternoon, when Business meets Central in the Eastern Stadium at 3:30 o’clock. Except Tech, which will be without Everett Russell, its ace hurler, at least for its first two games, because of his bility, all the teims appear well fortified in the box. who pitched considerably last year, will, it appears, bear the brunt of mound duty for the Gray in the absence of Raussell.

ITH it decided that Tech will not | W play any ball games on its field, | work of completing the McKinley schedule is rapidly going forward. ‘Tech will enter the series heavily handicapped. In the first place it, had Little left in the way of seasoned ma- terial. Then the change in coaches which saw E. G. Foxley succeed Mal Edwards and inability to make full use of its field further hurt the McKinley cause. Not only has the Gray lost Russell, but it is understood that Freddy Nau, outfielder, one of the few other letter | winners that were being counted upon, 1s ineligible. Coach Foxley certainly is starting under tough conditions. He, however, is no means willing to count his| proteges out and says that they are fhr:mm' for the toughest fight of which 'y are capable. He hasn't been able yet to get much of a line on the material, however, as| the squad has done little but toss the ball about. | Among members of the squad han- | dling themselves well, besides Chewning, are Crenshaw, regular catcher last sea- | sen; Willls, outfielder, another 1831 mainstay; Weitaman, Davis, Gormley and Carl Nau, year ago. ¢ The Gray is planning just one game before making its series debut against Business, April 15. That will be against Episcopal Saturday afternoon at Alex- | andria at 2 o'clock. Here's the way the remainder of the ‘Tech schedule now stands: 16—Washington-Lee High at Ballston.

Matt Winn, racing leader, said today. “Anything that another horse ac- complishes during the next 20 years will always bring up the question— could he have beaten Phar Lap," Col. Winn predicted.” He had caught the public fancy. His performances were honcst, scandal never had touched him nor his owners. He will be known as the mythical Morse of the turf.” s cpening ge started its camp rda e Y day when it fought St. Albans, playing to a 2-2 tie in 10 its second game, innings.

Bai pringing from his corner with " the flashing quickness of a | wild animal, beat him to the first punch, | but from there through most of the scrap the powerful lad from the West | tE’nd was the aggressor. In the last two | | rounds Barry came forward with a furious attack that offset a marked | superiority of Gallagher in the early going. Marty was more bewildered than Lurt by the youngster’s punches, which had no hip in them. There were moments when Barry beat Gallagher at his own game. Strictly an in-fighter, Marty scored most of his 0| points at short range, but on occasions ‘B:\n'y lifted his opponent’s head with jolting shots in close.

Grimly he went | altcr the youngster, but Reds was tco| fast ever to permit Marty to hit solidly | frcm a distance. Barry's speed was the | decisive factor in the result. In giving his verdict, in which a great majority of the spectators con- | curred, Referee Charley Shory doubt- | lessly took into consideration a number |of illegal b'ows struck by Gallagher. | In the clinches he used his elbows and applied a trick of yanking his arm upward in such manner as to nick Barry on the chin and face with the wrist guard of his glove.
