PREPS READY FOR TECH.
Good Game Should Result From Bat.
tie of Old Rivals Tomorrow.

For the first time in a number of years
teams representing the Georgetown Prep
School and Tech High of this city will
clash In regularly arranged battle to-
morrow afternoon. The occasion will be
the first of a series of basket ball games
arranged for the present season between
the two institutions. That contests in
other branches of sport will follow from
now on is generally believed on all sides
and little doubt exists that the long stand
ing breach Is now healed.
From all accounts the contests between
the Hilltoppers and Blacksmiths will set
tie the championship of the District In the
indoor sport this year. Already the Tech
lads, while members of the Northminster
quint. have demonstrated that they are
foes to be feared while the Props have
succeeded in taking care of everything
they have clashed against from the other
local schools.

Louis Winans' Stable of Trotters to

they will be prepared for the summer
campaign.

for several years excited more or less
comment, and that is, whether the trot-
ting horses bred in Europe, even though
OF American parentage. are the equal OF
those bred on this side. for in the string
there are two of the best European preo
winners of recent years. One of them
is Dora, which at three and four years
old was the champion trotter of Europe.
She won many celebrated stakes anu
rich prizes. including the Austrian derby.
Another is willy, one of the most con-
sistent winners of big purses at Vienna
and Budapest during the last two years
Two other European trotters, or as they
call them abroad. inlanders, are In the
stable.
In Mr. Winans' string that is coming
here are also Allen Winter, the stallion
which won the first 10000 American
trotting derby at Readvile two years
ago, and later in the season took record
of 2O6ia at Cleveland. He was pur-
chased by Mr.. Wnans shortly after win

With eyes that showed no flash of in

whether he heard the sentence passed
