WEIGHTS EQUAL IN
SCHOOLBOY CONTEST
Though Without Victory, Central
Has Played Excellent Foot
ball This Season.
By BRYAN MORSE.

Central is conceding nothing but ex-
perience to Techs team in today's
scholastic championship battle expected
to be the decisive battle in the cam
paign honors for the title at Andrews
Park.
The fact that both teams average
within one pound of each other leaves
Tech with little more than collection
of veteran campaigners to be pitted
AGAINST Central's eleven.
Each team boasts one big man. Ed
Stokes of Central tips the beam at 1870
pounds. while Harold Supplee, of Tech.
weighs in at ls5, Each team has one
light player, Tech showing Robert Har-
dell to weight 131. while johnny Saxon.
of Central. scales off at 121.
Tech announces its weight as follows:
Hardell. 131: Young, 152; Sabine, 152;
MoSartbeE MoSney w. as cnsss sed iaIpre Rabsrts
Gibson, 10, and Ochsenreiter, Isl.
The Central weights are as follows:
Bassett. 1877; Richards, 155; Stokes, 199;
Atherton, 155: Hill, 152: Bailey. 1Sg; Writ,
142: Saxon. 121: Roberts. 135: Macdonald,
l4; Ochstadt, 1a6: McKenney' 1o3, and
Coach Thomas has number of ends
who have a chance to get into the
contest at anv time. Besides Bassett
and Saxon, Writ. Belcher. Terry and
to show their ability.
Tech has 50 far gotten into the lime
light with a 130 to 0 win over Eastern
In the first game of the SERIES Just
before this Tech won a to o. game
over Army and Navy Prep held the
Georgetown Reserves to 10 to Z and
were beaten 20 to by the Episcopal
High School eleven with a bunch OF
green youngsters in the game. The
team has scored z point to 80 for op-
ponents.
Central opened the season with a
scoreless tie against the Georgetown
Props, held Episcopal High School to
Z to score and got the short end
of a - game with the Navy Plebes.
The Blue eleven has shown defensive
strength calculated to Offset the best
work of Tech running backs Ochsen-
reiter, Roberts and Steed and the plung-
ing ability of Gibson, the Tech leader
and fullback.
Our boys are in excellent shape Tor
today's contest" says Coach Wayne
Hart. Those who think Osehenreiter
and Roberts are not up to the mark In
physical condition will be surprised
while Steed has come forward rapidly
in the past week"
Central maintains that its team will
be able to defeat Tech and that as the
Manual Trainers failed to show war
rantable strength against Eastern the
battle will be evenly fought.

Hunter Mcclure are the officials Of
the contest. AS the game Is expected

mere desire to test relative football
merits of the two sections in Yalc's
reported action. There is the benefit
of indirect advertising. Western foot
ball interest Is growing, newspapers
giving but little space to the big Eastern
elevens. In the past 1t was the ether
way around, Yale, Harvard, Penn and
Princeton getting considerable space In
the West. Alumni Of Yale claim that
many promising schoolboy athletes are
entering the Western universities slmp-
ly because they think their athletic
by Eastern institutions.
Hence, Yale may play another eleven
from the West in 1915, adding II to the
Notre Dame game.

Yale-Harvard game this year at New
haven. This game will be played in
the new Bowl" which seats more than
5000 spectators.
Far from fearing the Hilltoppers, Gal
laudet's players believe they have an
excellent chance Of winning the Turkey
lay contest. Coach Crafts Is 100 cagey
to make any promises, but he looks
confident Of seeing the Kendall Greeners
do themselves honor at Georgetown on
Thanksgiving Day.
"Gallaudet is far stronger than most
folks imagine, too," admits Charne
Cox, the Georgetown graduate manager

The tucks. however. and the long
sleeves mean that the pattern requires
greater width than can be found in any
ordinary material so that, while the
pattern is in one piece, straight lengths
Of the fabric must be joined before it
can be cut out. Whether it is best
to make such joining at the center
front and cover the seam with trim
ming as in the picture or to lay the
edge Of the pattern on the fold Of the
material and to join the edges Of the
material wherever needed depends
entirely upon the SPECIAL material and
must be decided by each woman for
herself. The directions that accom-
pany the pattern provide for both
methods. To cut without the seam
at the front and make the ioinings
IN the sleeve portions. however, means
less material If a inch goods is to be
used and. as a matter Of course. that
is a question to be considered. In the
narrower widths. it is quite as econom.

done. there should be trimming Of
