DOUBLE PREP BILL
TO BE STAGED TODAY

Something unusual in the football
line comes about today at the Cen
trail stadium, Eleventh street and
Florida avenue northwest, when a
double bill of scholastic football is
carded. Western and Eastern battle
in the first contest at 2 o'clock,
Central and Baltimore City College
fighting it out in the nightcap at
$3.50. The first game is likely to be
a hard fought battle. This is the
first time in years that Eastern has
ensered football game on even
terms with Western.
Central is favored to cop the sec
ond affair in handy fashion. Coach
Metzler, as well as most of the
high school fans in the city were
surprised at the changed showing
of the varsity over their playing in
the first game of the season. The
power on the offense of Captain
Mel Jones' team is conceded by
many to be stronger than that of
Tech.

pionship was decided in the Ameri-
can League.

Speaker. New York and Chicago
are in the race because they have
spent wads of cash to bring stars
from other teams to their club.
game and I will be ticlkled to death
If Cleveland cops"
The fan was saying a mouthful
at the time.
If Sisler should move to New York
as the result of a cash transaction
it would be a hard blow to the
game as a whole. but especially to
the baseball public in st. Louis.
They idolize sisler there. And
largely due to his efforts the
Browns were able to finish in the
first division this season for the
first time in many years. Next sea-
son they should do even better un-
der Jimmy Burke's able handling.
II, with Sisters aid, the Browns
could eventually win n pennant it
would be a great thing for the
game. without him the chances for
a first division berth even would
be slim.
The White Sox are an example OF
how money can put team in front,
at the expense of less fortunate
rivals The acquisition of Eddie
Collins in 1915 and Joe Jackson in
1916 was the signal for White Sox
stock to go soaring, with the result
that in 1917, 1918 and 1919 they won
the league championship, and might
have done it in the season just past
If some of the players hadn't be-
come tools of a crew of gamblers.
