The complexion Of the interhigh
basketball championship race has
changed since Eastern's surprising
victory over Tech. Eastern, Tech
and Central are waging tight
duel for the first.place berth, with
Western menacing the leaders.
Business, it appears, has dropped
by the wayside.
Eastern tops the field with a
record of three victories and one
setback. Tech and Central follow
with two wins and one loss.

morrow and them the four leading
teams will start a wild scramble
for the hunting. In event that the
final games find two or more teams
In a tie, a play-of will be held.

fer Central facing Western and
Tech meeting Business. Two
weeks ago, Central and Tech
would have been chosen rs
prime choices to score over
Western. and Business. Today,
It would be futile to select a
winner for either game.
Western and Business have
flashed form reversals and NAV

play second fiddle tomorrow, 1t will

contestants enter the last lap.
Coaches Ahern OF Western and
Woodwork of Business have quit
the experimental stage and have
decided upon regular line-ups. The
Western team will compose Latona
and Captain CARRIER at forwards:
Wilson at center and Hunt and
Luney in guards. That's a scrappy
and working combination and
will give Central tough argu.
ment tomorrow.
Business will have Captain Dick
Keefer and Bernie Jones az for
wards; Hank Davis in center and
Charlie May and jake Lewis in
guards. They threw a scare into
the Central ranks on Tuesday.
Bert COggins, Central coach,
is hopeful that Burt Burch,
his regular center, will be able
to play tomorrow. Burch was
injured In the Tech squabbIe
last Friday and has not dOnned
a uniform since then.
His absence has caused Coggins
to shift his lineup, switching Mel.
