: "You know as we'll as | that one OF

J Central students think that Krupp
| should develop into a stellar nound
product this spring when the scholas-
| tic base ball teams get out for their
annual series. krupp is tan ana mas
/ n build which is admirable for a
| pitcher. He is said to be more capa-
BILE than the average high school
| twirler. with great possibilities He
was at Centra! last year. but was IN
| eligible. When it is considered that
| it was consistent pitching more than
| anything else which carried Tech to
u championship last season. 1t does
not take Il very fertile imagination TO
! figure just how valuable tall lankE
! hurler would be to central-or would
! have been last year. when the Gem
trail catcher had to do most of the
| mound work. with the regular second
haseman pressed into service back OF
/ the bat.
! College base ball will be more prom
inent everywhere this spring than for
s. veral years. Big northern mines are
! coming south on trips and southern
teams are going north. All colleges
seem to have arranged longer sched-
ules than usual, and institutions in
| the south Atlantic region Will play
I more games even than during their
pre-war schedules. Hardly a school
that is not arranging for list OF
thirty or more contests.
