EPISCOPAL STARS
ARE BEING SOUGHT.

DESPITE all the claims from the
larger universities that ath-
letics in the future are to be i'm
maculately conducted. any schoolboy
who shows promise of developing
into a real star does not take Ions
to attract the attention OF almuni
who are bubbling over with alma
mater spirit.
Washington athletes always are
scrutinized. but this fall the achieve
ments Of certain youngsters at Epis-
copal High School are in the cal
cium's glare and scouts are ready to
talk business in the matter of the
selection Of their respective colleges
Time was when Virginia got all
or most of the athletic talent al
Alexandria until along came Tolly
Pendleton and trudged away to
Princeton where he had a brilliant
career which eliminated in his Sc
lection as football captain.
There are now at Episcopal two
or three players who are well worth
the while for any graduate who car
get them to legitimately adopt his
college.

WEST VS.. EAST ISSUE
FAR FROM SETTLED.

WITHOUT attempting to disparage
w in the slightest degree the VIC
tory of the cornhusking Iowans at
New Haven last Saturday. the gen.
try accepting that as the concluding
and conclusive evidence OF the su-
periority OF the West over the East
In football, are, il We may so state
1t. distinctly out on limb.
The contest proved beyond q doubt
that Iowa, on October IA, was better
than Yale on the same date. But
there the question ends. In the ma
tural order of things. the Yale
eleven that meets Princeton and
Harvard will be infinitely smoother
than the article presented for In
spection last Saturday.
In the meantime. Harvard has to
face Centre and Princeton has to
meet Chicago.

CENTRAL APPRECIATES
VICTORY OF IT'S TEAM.

IT was q Joyous throng of nun treds
of students who assembled at
Central High School yesterday and
g ave reir to their feelings ever the
defeat Of Western.
The last two classes that gradu-
ated from the Clifton street insti-
tuition never had the satisfaction of
seeing the Georgetown school beaten
and yesterday there was no doubt as
to how the seniors and the others
telt about Tuesdays achievements
Western was bitterly stunned by
the reverse and there was an incli-
nation to blame poor generalship for
the rout. after having survived ten
quarters in three years without al
lowing Central to score. However.
there were others who conceded that
generalship is distinctly a part OF
a team and that Central is entitled
to the glory Of its triumph.
