Eastern and Western Play
Thursday on Hilltop Field
Crucial Game Booked
Thursday on Hilltop
Eastern and Western to Meet in Scholastic Series
A, on Georgetown Diamond-Track Meet
Friday on Satterlee Field.
By c. w. SWAN.

Eastern and Western will meet Thurs
day afternoon on Georgetown Field, in
the game which will either end the
scholastic series or tie it up. This was
decided upon yesterday afternoon by
Faculty Advisors Wallis and Mathews.
3 AS the ball park is in use every day
this week with the exception of Satur-
day, it was thought best to play one
game on Georgetown Field. AS Eastern
and Western are scheduled ahead of
Central and Business, this game will
be staged Thursday, providing both
teams put in an appearance.
1t is claimed by the Light Blue and
White supporters that Western will have
a decided advantage by playing on the
Blue and Gray diamond, as the George
town students and fans will be out three
fold stronger than II the game was
played at American League Park. While
this may be true. in sense. yet West
ern will not have such a big advantage
over its strong rivals.
Eastern will go into the game without
a lose staring Them in the face, and
with the knowledge that a defeat will
only tie up the series, while the West
ern tribe must win to even get a chance
at the title.
johnson and Brewer will be the oppos-
ing hurlers, with the veterans Lehman
and Cohill behind the bat The game
will start at $3.50 o'clock, with Earnest
Collihower. who has been signed to Of
ficiate in the entire series. handling the
contest.
Wayne Hart. former star football
player of Tech, George Washington,
and Georgetown. will coach the Tech
meal High School football team this
fall. This was announced by Football
Director Piggot yesterday afternoon.
Hart has had considerable experience
as a coach. both with school and indie
pendent teams. Last season he coach
ed the Vigilant eleven. independent
champions of the South, and turned out
a wonderful aggregation. This team
lost but one game during the season.
and that was to a picked team. and not
to an eleven which played independent
football throughout the season.
Hart will have White. the big tackle,
who is at present rowing on the Tech
crew. as captain. and will also have
Gene Ochsenreiter, Steed, Gibson, Bor-
yer, and Roberts to work with.
There was some talk of going back
TO the old system of coaching, but this
seems hardly likely, at the present
time. as Hecox resigned at the close of
last season.
Hart will more than likely get sew
eral former Tech stars to help him out
the Manual Trainers a good team with
any kind of ma terial.
The interscholastic track and field
meet will be held Friday afternoon on
Satterlee Field, in Tennallytown, D. c.
