TO be more successful than ever, since
the Central lads Will not have ali the
events at their mercy. This spring it
Will have one more school to compete
against. Technical. In its one year In
high school circles Tech" has figured
prominently, putting strong baseball
team In the field and winning the COM
petitive drill This latter feat is the
greatest that can fall to the lot of any
of the LEGAL high schools
While the new institution does not
figure any stronger than Central in ath-
letics. it is to be reckoned with, and is
locked upon by the majority OF high
school students as the one 10 push Cen
trail for athletic honors this season.

athletic meets. and IN each one Central
has come out victorious. Until the pres

enjoy this advantage. She will have
Technical as a rival. and prominent
one at that. with Western figuring al
most as strong as either. Eastern has
but scant material, at present. from
which to form an athletic team, so Ii is
hardly to be considered. while Business
is handicapped by a course OF only two
years.
However, should Business go into the
