TEAMS ARE WORKING HARD
By BRYAN MORSE.

The selection of grounds for the high
school football championship games and
the officials for the contests will come
up this week before the faculty athletic
advisers of the various schools. A full
week has been put in by the school boy
football teams. and from indications the
season is likely to be harder fought
than that OF last year, when Central
ran rampant through the ranks with a
team of giants.
1t is safs to say that a deal more at
tention viii be given the matter Of Of
ficiais this year than last, and there
Is every prospect that the men selected
will have less difficulty than those
last year on account of the fact that
they were handicapped by not having
another man to help out.
Jack Gass, who has refereed the
games for the past decade is at present
in Cuba and will not be available for
that Fritz Crafts. the old George
Washington player, and at present
coach of the Gallaudet team; Frank
Gargan, Georgetown's coach; Fred
Nielsen, who umpired last year; Lieu
tenant Land. whose work IL the high
John Dugan. are being looked over as
possible officials this season.
May Use Hilltop.
Union League Park has been rumor-
ed as the logical place for the games
this season because of the fact that
the baseball park would be undergoing
improvements. Georgetown may come
to the rescue. but as the Blue and
Gray Institution put the ban up last
year owing to the lateness of arrang-
ner III
grounds.
There is no doubt but that George
town Field can be secured il the high
school faculty advisers get together
last year at the Hilltop that the field
could have been used had the authori-
ties gone after Ii soon enough.
This season followers of the schools
will miss "Murph" King, Central,s fa-
FssIsre Pous captain Eshss and HSSara GSa tes
Western, and Wilson. of Business, and
Eckendorf, of Tech. New stars will
take their places and names not well
known how will be mentioned shortly

with the possible exception Of Tech.
