Technical High School is practically
conceded the scholastic league bas-

ers in consequence of their 29-to-21
win over Central. have a clean slate,
with but two admittedly weaker
teams to face in the remainder OF the
schedule.
With two wins scored over Central
and Business and single victories
over Western and Eastern, Tech is
looking for little opposition on the
road to the league honor.
At Catholic University yesterday
the Mckinley lads came from behind
at half time before the largest crowd
that has ever seen a high school game
here and gained a well-earned victory.
Overzealous guarding in the first
period sent Parker Techs star guard
to the side lines on personal fouls.
Central then gained the ascendancy
and the score rested at 16 to 13 in
favor OF Central. Hillmans basket
on the first play OF the second half
sent the Mt. Pleasant lads farther
ahead.
The score stood at 23 all when Dick
Newby drew suspension in the
fourth quarter on personal fouls.

Hutchinson and Loehler for Tech

while Hillman and Lemon starred for

North Carolina University players

heels gave a great exhibition Of floor
work and basket shooting in trim
ming the Brooklanders, and also have
the honor of being the first team to
defeat Catholic University on its own
floor in the new gymnasium.
The Carolinians presented string
of subs in the first half and wound
up the session with a 22-to-16 lead.
Shepard Griffin and Irwin played con-
sistently well until the c. L. lads got
the score up to 25 to "a in the second
half.
Carmichael, Lipfert and Rouk went
in for Carolina and speedily pulled
the game out of the fire No such
floor work or shooting has been seen
on a local floor this season. Glascott
was the mainstay OF the c. y. defense
and offense and literally kept the
team in the running throughout.
