improbable that a Grotto League will
be the next installment by tho Masons.

Every one of the five schools COM

their rivals after fighting score
less tie in their engagement, there
is every indication that the 1915
race will end as it now stands.
Tech defeated Western yesterday
BY 10 to 0 thereby evening up with
Business, which had defeated Cen
tral. The Manual Trainers, despite
the loss of Capt. Gene Ochsenreiter
early in the game, blasted the Red
and White hopes by superior line
work and team play, and completely
demoralized the Westerners' offerse
and defense, breaking up the lone
hope of the Georgetown eleven, a
kicking game.

feating Eastern to 0. Business and
