He has played in all the spring

quilted himself admirably. He is a
regular in the championship flights

as a golfer but as a thoroughly

TANGLED SERIES
IS OUTLOOK
BY George "A. Simpson

Though three games remain In
the inter.high baseball champion
ships, complications can develop
that will scramble the series. The
1927 titleholder, Tech. which has
closed its competition with three
wins and one setback, can win the
title. Eastern, which has two VIC
tories and no losses to its credit,
can also cop the flag. while Cen.
trail, with one win and a defeat,
can earn q first-place deadlock.
Central, to cling in the fight for
the crown. must subdue Business
in the meeting this afternoon at
3:t5 o'clock in the Central High
Stadium, as = defeat would bring
elimination.
Eastern can end all questions by
winning the postponed games from
Central and Western. A defeat in
one would result in a three-cornered
tie with Tech and Central, proVid-
ing the latter beats Business. De.
feats by both Central and Western
would blast Eastern's regal aspira'
tons.
