CENTRAL TO PLAY
IN PHILADELPH IA
Washington School 10 Meet
Ancient Quaker City
Rival in November.

After lengthy elaboration the athletic
authorities at Central High School have
decided TO allow the football eleven
representing that institution to make
the proposed trip to Philadelphia on Fri
day November 26. for tbs annuaI game
with the Philadelphia Central High.
Inc numerous reverses with which the
Central athleteS cOntended during the
early part Of the season, the loss of
many Of their best players through
failure to return to school, through in
5urles, and Jisqualihcations under the
ellglbility rules, caused the authorities
to reconsider the advisa bility of play
ing the game as per schedule
Now after the excellent showing the
team made against the Tech and Bust
ness elevens in the championship series.
and In the face OF all difficulties. the
authorities have taken a decidedly diff
ferent view OF the situation. At a re-
cent meeting OF the faculty board Of
athletics a favorable decision was
reached and the game will be played,
twenty players making the trip.
The fact that the high school eligibf-
ity rule does not hold good in outside
games will allow the services Of several
players who viii strengthen the lineup

The punting ability Of the first named
should prove a large factor In the game
with the Quaker City team. In prac-
tice his punts average about forty-fve
yards, which Is above the standard in
the. Washington high schools.
The authorities at Philadelphia have
been notified Of the intention Of the
local team to play the game, and are
making extensive preparations for the
entertainments Of the squad
Central has not sent a Team to Phila-
delphta since 1905. when the team was

TO EFFECT CHANGE
AT EASTERN HIGH
Rules Governing Athletic
Association Will Be Com
pletely Revised.

A complete change will be effected in
Che athletic association at Eastern High
school some time within the next few
months. The present system Of govern
ing athletics and athletes at the Capt.
Tor the past several years, but no ade-
uuate remedy could be devised. The
principal and athletic adviser have at
last worked out a plan which they think
will cover the difficulty.
AS soon as the change IS made East
ern athletics viii be governed In much
the same way as at Central Instead Of
being ruled over by a faculty athletic
adviser selected by the principal, a
council viii be chosen, consisting Of the
principal. a member Of the faculty and
one Of the students at the school. This
council holds the privilege Of nominal
ing al captains. managers and the like
The entire athletic association viii vote
upon The nominees
This feature is probably the strongest
OF the new plan. Heretofore all captains
and managers have been elected by the
members OF the various teams. In
many cases the men selected have been
unable 20 serve because Of deficiencies
IN studies This has Invariably proved
a menace 10 the sport and a handicap
70 the teams. Under the proposed plan
the athletic council viii chose the nOmi-
nees. Only those who are proficient in
studies win be considered.
Just when the new plan win go into
effect has not been definitely decided,
but the assurances Of the present ath-
letic adviser would indicate that the
methods now in vogue viii be changed
before baseball season.

Did Not Wait for Virginia
Protest, But Enforced
Residence Rule.

Georgetown has voluntarily withdrawn
'Curley' Byrd. the clever quarterback,
from the lineup OF the Virginia game
next Saturday.
The report that Virginia protested the
player and because Of this he has been
forced out of the game IS incorrect. ac-

For two weeks the athletic COMMITTEES
has had the case OF Byrd under advise

day morning that to play him against
Virginia would be technical violation
OF the code, so orders were Immediately
sent to tae captain Of the team that
Byrd IS ineligible.
Not only IS Byrd ineligible for they

It will be difficult to maintain this
margin OF 1893 per cent over the Fats,
however. The Chamber is a strong
team. but is thought to be playing
somewhat above its true form. The
Fats are not as strong a team as last
