Austin Howard, former West
ern High School and Cornell Uni
versity star ball player, may coach
Technical High Schools baseball
club next spring. 1t was learned
last night that the position had been
offered to Howard, but whether or
not he would accept it could not
be ascertained.
Last summer Howard PLAYED
with the Fall River Club of the
New England League, and put up
clever game. He is under re-
serve by the same club.
If Howard accepts the position
with Teck, he will more than likely
give up professional baseball. As
Howard has had considerable ex-
perience, both as an amateur and
professional, he should make a
capable coach for the Manual
Trainers. The Blacksrniths will
have fairly good material for the
ball club, and with a coach of the
caliber of Howard should prove to
be big factors in the fight for the
championship flag.
Gallaudet's basketball club has been
practicing for the last few days, and,
according TO Foltz. the Bun and Blue
crack little end. will make a good show
ing this winter. The Kendall Greeners
will meet Catholic University in the near
future, and battle royal is expected.
Buck Howard has entered GEORGETOWN,
and will be candidate for the ball club

hitter. He will fit in nicely at third base

If he agrees to a game, the fans win see
a great struggle. This club is out TO
