PREPS' CLAIM JUSTIFIED.
Eastern Quint Must Meet EmbryOs
to Win Championship.

Manager McInerny. Of the Georgetown
Prep basketball team, has been I'M
able for the past two weeks to arrange
game with the quint Of Eastern High
School, who are now putting forth a
strong claim for the championship of the
District. Eastern defeated the Props
early in the season. by a close score, in
the Eastern gym. the game being the
first of a series of two scheduled con-
tests. The second has never materialized.
After Eastern defeated the Props, the
manager Of the high school quint can
ceied the second game, and try as he
might. Manager McInerny has been un-
able to arrange another game or to get
satisfactory reason why another should
not be played.
The Eastern manager cannot overlook
this second game with the Hilltop en-
bryos. and their claim to championship
honors will not be cinched until they
have again met the Preps.. this time in
Ryan gymnasium. as scheduled earlier in
the season.

that ever represented the school in an
event of this kind. In Crane and Brans-
ford. Cathedral has a pair in the 5O-yard
scholastic likely to capture first place.
Crane was star last year, and with the
added experience and strength should be
seconds faster.

last season, is now at Cathedral School.
and is entered in the shot-put. He is
also counted upon as sure point winner.
In addition to Johns Hopkins. Balti-
more City College. and the Baltimore

lay teams will be classified with the mill

BOordom and
Boredom
By JEANNETTE WALDoN

Hartley fillmore was appalled, BY
what he had done He remembered
now. with a burning that seemed to
envelope his face with flame, that
she had not called him a boor; she
had only implied that he was one.
with such cutting delicacy that the
wound to his sensibilities was as IN
tangible as It was deep.
He deserved It; that was the worst.
The outspoken. rugged side OF bis m
ture, which rebelled against what be
called the "insineerity OF human IN
fercourse. had made him rash enough
to midjudge Anabel. What he had
supposed was an affected surprise in
her attitude toward his proposal Of
marriage had angered him for the mo-
ment He was cool enough now; a
very chilling penitenee had crept over
him, even before he threw open his
coat to the cool night air. And he
traversed the street at dashing
speed. as If trying to escape from
his humiliation.
The conviction that he had accused
Anabel OF subterfuge and pretense
was more unbearable. even. than to
feel that he had betrayed streak OF
cloddishness and unrestraint in his
own makeup. It had seemed so abb
surd 10 him. that Anabel should need
to think It over-their relations
reconsider her feelings for him. Why.
she had conveyed TO him in a thou
sand ways.
Not until after he had spoken did
he realize that q woman of Anabel's
type Is never actually prepared for
the supreme declaration OF her lover.
And to think that he had construed
her halting. her confusion as an az
fectation
Now he admitted with anguish that
her nature was too exquisite for his;
