WILL USE

Figuratively in so far as the
1929 Public High School football
series championship is concerned,
Tech High Schools eleven viii
probably be literally returned
winner by tommorow night.
Having weathered the best op
position offered by Eastern, Cen.
tral and western. the Manual
Trainers tomorrow are to meet
lowly Business in the final game
Of their 1929 series schedule.
Even Coach Elmer HardeII.
who Is not prone to underrate
any opponent, himself con-
cedes his eleven victory and
will likely use q makeshift
lineup throughout the 40
minutes Of play.
Hardell promises to uncover
several players who have noU yt
shown in series competition an,
it is likely that at least one o
these men is of the gilt-edge va
riety.
Every season for the past seV
eral years 1t has been Hardell'i
custom to reserve a surprise fol
Techs last game of the serie
and the Business meeting viii
! give him an ideal opportunity f
take a chance.
Although the Stenographers art
a fighting lot and never give VI
until the final whistle, it woult
not surprise were Tech to surpas.
Eastern's high scoring record o
46 points marked UP agains
Coach Woodworth'S boys.
Unless HardeII depends too
heavily upon his reserves it
is difficult to see how the
Orange can keep in step with
the versatile attack which
has dOwned the most fOrmid-
able opponents encountered
in the series to date.
Frankly Coach Lynn Wood
worth anticipates nothing re
sembling victory but he is never
theless drilling his players in al
effort to make a stubborn figh
/ of it.
| Since tl1iS game winds up tn,
schedules of both schools thl
Stenographers are out to make /
creditable showing which woult
go far toward eraSing tn,
memories Of an otherwise disas

minutes, being held there five days
by the necessity Of refuelling and
damage done TO the rear motor gon-
dola in taking the ship from the
hangar.
The $500 miles from Tokyo to
Los Angeles was covered in 10 hours
and So minutes, and the last leg,
which was completed today was be-
gun with less than a full day spent
in refuelling.
In getting away from Los Ange-
les the Graf had difficulty in gain
ing altitude and even after dump
ing out canned gods to tighten its
load 1t dragged its tail over some
high tension wires which luckily
did not ignite the millions Of cubic
feet Of explosive hydrogen gas in

were no signs Of any burns.

Shortly after the ship was berth
ed DR.. Eckener went to the press
room in the Ia 1gar where he was
cheered by the more than 100 re-
porters assigned to the final act of
the world flight. As he was talk
ing to them rumors flew thick and
fast about the hangar.
One was that the rudder was SO
badly damaged that 1t would take
two weeks to repair even though
the necessary duraluminum was at
hand here with which to do the
work. Another vas that two Of the
five engines had shown signs Of
firing" and would have TO be re-
placed. Still another had it that
the weather of the Siberian wastes
had SO eaten away the silver coat

TO be recoated before beginning its
journey homeward which will mark
its fifth crossing Of the Atlantic.
