BROOKE BREWER IS
HOLDER OF RECORD
Cathedral Star Scored Sixty
three Points for His Team in
Three Periods.
By BRYAN MORSE.


Brooke Brewer. halfback Of the Ca
thedral School team. is today award
cd what is thought to be record ur-
edualed in high school or college foot
ball in this section of the country.
Playing in but three-quarters of the
game against Dunhams Boys Latin
School, of Baltimore, at Satterlee Field,
brewer made ten touChdowns and
field goal, contributing no less than
s:Xty-three points of his teams record
total of ninety-two points. His indi-
Vidual mark is two points better than
the best point record ever made as a
school team total up to yesterday.
CentraTs record Of 81 to 0 over west
ern- was the highest known school
! record up to yesterday. Dunham was
defeated by % points to yesterday,
and out of justice to the Baltimoreans
it might be said that they have been
without a coach for some time. This.
however. belittles in no way the work
Of Cathedral, or that of Brewer. as
the whole Cathedral team was playing
in it's best form and allowed Durham
hut one first down by actual rushing
during the contest.
AS a matter of fact. Cathedral made
hut four first downs during the game.
practically all runs resulting in a touch
down when ends were fianked by the
flying Cathedral players. Holmes was
an important factor in Cathedrars vic
tory, shooting the forward pass with
unerring accuracy, and paving the way
for five touchdowns by the aerial route,
in e
est consideration on account of the
fact that it is believed to be a better
record than any heretofore known
in school boy history. Four times
Brewer received the ball from Holmes
on forward passes. Three times he
ran distances Of Is, 20, and 25 yards
from the line of scrimmage across
the goal line for touchdowns. On
another occasion he galloped from
midfield with forward pass for a
Touchdown. Three end runs in which
practically half of the Dunham' s
team was circled for distances of 35,
IS. and 55 yards netted touchdowns.
on three other occasions the flyer
ran back punts through both teams
for toUchdowns. These times he went
40. 45, and So yards for the goal line.
On one other occasion Brewer got
by for a 40-yard gain only to be
hauled down on the 4-yard line by
Brown, Dunham's right end.
Holmes succeeded in kicking eleven
of thirteen goals after touchdown.
With but thirty second to go in the
first half Brewer deftly shot field
goal from the 35-yard line bringing
his total up to So points for the
mornings work which was for but
three of the four periods Of play. Had
the youngster played in the other
quarter there is no telling what the
total would have been. This point
tStal was made in periods Of but eight
minutes or an average OF almost 3
points per minute.
The Army and Navy Prep team has
succeeded where all other Washing
ton teams have failed and is today
celebrating a Is TO Is win over Epis-
copal High School, of Alexandria, and
on the Episcopal Field, generally CON
ceded a triumph by Washington
school boy elevens.
Waters and Hunter were the chief
ground gamers for the Army and Navy
Props and it was their work in the final
minutes OF the struggle that made VIC
tory possible. Millers place kick gave
ths Washington eleven its margin of
Victory.
Georgetown Preps were unable to re-
cord a victory over Loyola College of
Baltimore, taking a beating by to >.
Kelley, Loyola's fullback, plunged his
way TO a win over the Hilltoppers.
OF interest to washington and vir-
Einia schoolboys was the victory of
Staunton Military Academy over the
strong Massanutten Academy by Z to
score. Massanutten has claimed the
prep school title of Virginia this season
with an unbroken string of victories

The Business-Tech game to be played
Tuesday is bound to prove a great at
traction not only because of the fact
that Tech is on the threshold of its sec

for All-High honors.
The idea of Techs meeting a team in
a post season contest is not much to
have Tech beaten as to provide a card

a commendable purpose. AS a title
