The Central base ball nine will not suf-
fer lack of practice games next spring,
judging from the extensive schedule
Manager Morsell is arranging. The sched-
ule includes many out-of-town games.
The o streeters are fortunate in having
a veteran nucleus for a winning team,
but will be compelled to develop a new
outfield to fill the vacancies of Richard
son and Rheem.
Frank Bielaski former Central High
distance runner. is in town and visited
some OF his old-time schooimates. He has
no intention of entering college He was
a prominent point winner on the track
team during the years of 1896 and 1907.
Central High is consoling itself with
the fact that although Tech won the
championship the o street school was re-
venged by downing Western. Owing to
the fact that Western has administered
several singing defeats to the Centralites
at inopportune times during the last few
years this victory was almost as vel
come as championship. BY winning
this game Central believes il has broken
the hoodoo sign Western has had on the
school for the past few seasons.
II Technical does decide to organize
a basket ball quint the school will have
a player in Morris who is thoroughly
acquainted with the tossing game He
played stellar game for q local five
against the Georgetown props Saturday
night. AS the props are supposed to
be about the same strength as the high
school teams, he clearly demonstrated
that he is capable of holding his own
on the basket ball floor in high school
circles.

vote their time earnestly TO this sport
during the winter months the school
could have capable bunch of entries

LLOYD Henry, end on the Central eleven,
is expected to reach his stride on the
track this season. He is one of the vet
Grams of the squad and should prove
consistent point winner this year. The
Mckinney brothers are also training
again and should win few points Tor the
Blue and White team
1t is certainty that Business and
Western will line up in basket ball
scrimmage again this winter. The StenOg-
raphers have had something on the boys

and it will be their aim to make Business
go some in order to take their scalp.
Western has some promising material out
