Eastern is generally favored to
take the measure of the lighter
and less experienced Business
eleven, despite that the Stenogs
have been strengthened by the
acquisition of nearly a whole new
team following the issuance OF
scholastic marks for the past ad-
visory. The Lincoln Parkers also
have gained a couple OF capable
players.

Others in the Eastern starting line
up will include Smith, left end; Tom
Nally, left tackle; Hogge, left guard;
Montague, right guard; Mottett, right
tackle, and jenkins, right end.
Lynn Woodwork, Business coach,
expects to determine his opening line
up following today's practice. The
Stenogs have gained the services as the
result Of the advisory marks OF Reich
ardt and Garner, backs, and Loftus,
Koontz, Mills, Donnan. Lyman, Cook
and Ham, forwards. OF the group
Reichardt, LOTUS, Koontz and MINIS
probably are the best.
Eastern was able to conquer Business
by only 8 to 6 last Fall. Should the
StenogS make @ showing as good as
that tomorrow their followers will be
more than grattfed.
Despite the strong record of the
George washington Freshmen, Coach
Harley Page Sanborn's Emerson eleven
is confident of making the Colonial
Cubs hustle for all they are worth to
win In the grid game at Grifnth Sta
dunn.
Emerson's record is good, too. The
game should serve as further index
to the relative strength of the college
hnPpahrNtG George
Washingtons Freshmen defeated the
Georgetown Cubs decisively, while
Emerson lost by only 6 to IL to the
undefeated Catholic University Fresh
man eleven.
Coach Sanborn is particularly keen
for victory and has been working
his charges hard all week. He expects
to put the very best eleven on the neld
that he can assemble.
In their latest engagement Emerson
dropped q 1870 decision to the William
and Mary Freshmen at williamsburg,
while the George washington yearlings
swemped the Johns Hopkins yearlings,
90 to 0.
Georgetown Prep, possessing what is
doubtless one of the best elevens ever
to represent the Garrett Park institu-
ton, has high hopes Of taking the
measure of Gonzaga and scoring re-
venge for the 27-0 drubbing handed it
by the Purple last Fall at Garrett Park
and for the other beatings which 1t
has sustained at the hands of the
Streeters. The Garrett Parkers have
never beaten Gonzaga.
So far this season Georgetown Prep
has scored over Mount st. Mary's Props,
rs to 0, and played Scoreless tie with
st. Johns of this city, which has the
best eleven it has had in a long time.
Gonzaga has conquered both Business
and Western, but lost to Catholic Uni
versity Freshmen.
Should Dewitt continue its strong
pace 1t probably will take Mount ST.
Mary's Props to camp without a whole
lot of difficulty. In holding Newport
News High to q TT draw last Saturday
In the Virginia City, Dewitt furnished
further evidence that 1t has strong
team, despite line which is not blessed
with an abundance of seasoned mate
rial.
So far Dewitt, in addition to holding
Newport News High to g tie, has dis
posed Of Eastern and Westinghouse
High. Mercersburg Academy, which
defeated Dewitt, IS to 0, in the latter'S
opening game, is the only eleven which
has conquered Coach Jim Mcnamara
boys and in limiting the Pennsylvania
scholasticS to two touchdowns Dewitt
was considered to have made first
rate showing.
After losing to George Mason High
o to 40, in its first game, Woodward
eleven has shown improvement In ii
latest contests, In which it defeated thu
Warrenton, Va, High eleven, 10 to 0
and battled the Franklin Day School o
Baltimore to scorelesS tie. It prob
ably will find the Charlotte Hall clever
a little too heavy and seasoned, but i
likely to furnish the Southern Mary
landers a spirited argument.
Lynn Woodwork, Business Higf
School coach, believes that the publi
high schools might with more profi
to every one concerned divide tn
championship foot ball competition int
three sections, ranking the teams as Il
weight.
While making 1t plain that he is put
ting In no alibi for the unimpressiv
showing of his light and uneXperiencel
team he believes that the matching o
teams comparing closely as to weigh
would give more boys chance to pla
foot ball.
Moreover, Woodwork favors tn
furtherance of q general athletics for
all program in the schools. He believe
In d system In which every boy, who
physically able, Is given an opportunit
TO take part in his favorite sport an
believes that the boys are entitled
such an opportunity.
