Manual Trainers Finish Series
With Clean Record Of
Victories.

Beyond the question Of a doubt,
Tech has proved it's superiority over
all rivals for the high school foot.
ball championship. The Manual
Trainers polished off BUSINESS, "a to
0, in the final game, and thus ended
their championship schedule without
meeting defeat. In fact, all of its
games with the exception Of that
with Western, was an easy victory.
Western held Tech to one touch
down.
AS usual, the Tech backfield, COM
posed of Pugh, Gooch, Price ard
April, displayed driving power that
the foe could not check. Business,
excepting during a few minutes OF
the game, was almost helpless before
the attacks of these four. They hit
the line and ran ends with ease.
Business was given spark OF hope
right at the outset, when Watt
caught the first kickoff on his own
5-yard line and ran through the op-
posing team to Techs 38-yard line,
where he partly stumbled and partly
was tackled to be downed.
After that, it was about all Tech.
1t was the last high school gama for
most Of Techs regulars.

Fish, the iron-arfned outfielder who
