Technical Eleven Is
Tackling Poly's Team
Champions Here Meeting Baltimore Tteholders in
Monumental Cty-Otter Schools Engage in Grid
iron Contests at Home and Away
By BRYAN MORSE.

The scholastic champions Of Bal
timore and Washington meet today
in the Monumental City, when the
Technical High School football team
meets the Baltimore Polytechnic In
stitute eleven. Tech was winner here
over the other high school teams
last season and retains the title un-
til the series here is decided. In Bal
timore the "Polys" as they are
called, roundly defeated the Balti-
more City College and other schools
there for the title.
The outcome of today's game will
be watched with interest as a line
can be gotten on the brand Of
football played in the two cities.
Last year Western and the Balti-
more City College team played 6
to tie, Western having a bit the
better of the argument. In the final
battle with the Polys the City Col
lege eleven was badly beaten. 1t is
understood.
Tech is reported to have a fast elev-
en- and one not as large physically as
those generally put out at the school
The Polys are as fast and big as many
of the smaller elevens. and Tech will
probably have its work cut out for 1t.
Business Is taking Its annual jaunt to
Charlotte Hall Military Academy. at
Charlotte Hall. Md. Coach White and
his players expect a decisive victory.
Business won last year by 33 to 0. and
is expecting to have another win
, chalked up to its credit. The two per-
formances Of the Business eleven so far
have been one-sided victories. The
orange and Blue eleven has been up
! a gainst little real opposition. and has
succeeded in perfecting a fine offense
| system.
The defense Of the Business team has
not been subjected to thorough test
In the games played but few first downs
have been made by the opposition. Busi-
ness followers and those OF other
schools believe the stenographers are
in line for the title this season.
Another out OF town trip for hisn
school eleven is that being taken oy
Central todav. The team coached ny
John Thomas has had It's downs mostlN
this year being entered against two
