This week the first Of the most inter-
esting of high school foot ball games
IS to be played, Technical and Western
being scheduled for a setto. Western
undoubtedly will be considerably out
Weighted by Technical, but that cuts lit
lie figure with the Georgetowners. Last
ear the same condition existed. but
Western got the long end Of the score.
And now Tech has not man in its
)ackfeld who had the power for line
breaking that Snyder possessed last
year.
Technical will have to stop set of
last. clever backs, Simpson being a
particularly elusive runner. Westerns
team does not possess the power that
Techs does. but it is likely to be some
what more versatile. The Red and
White is well developed in all depart
ments and does not appear to stand in
any particular fear of the Manual
Trainers. notwithstanding the greater
weight of the latter. Tech, however, is
showing gradual Improvement and is
not easy to defeat at any time. The
game probably will be close with the
breaks deciding the winner.
a mistake was made in this column
yesterday. when it was inadvertently
stated that Business and Central to-
morrow would play the second game
of the series Instead of Business
Eastern is booked to face the Blue
and White II is NOT To he expected
that Eastern will win from the Mount
Pleasant team, though the scrappy lit
tie Capitol Hill eleven has engineered
more than one big surprise in the
school seles, Eastern will be much
lighter than central and less eyneri-

combination has one weakness which
