SCHOOL GRIDDERS
START THIS WEEK
Tech and Central EIevens
Will Do Their Training
Out of Town.

A GIVE preparation for the foot
~ ball season will be started this
II week by schoolboy squads here
\ about. Two public high school
groups will go to training camps
this week and another will begin work
on home soil. Tech and Central are
the SQUADS that will go to camps, the
versity Of Maryland, at College Park,
and the latter to st. Johns College, at
Annapolis. A preseason out-of-town
training base Is a new wrinkle in Cen
trail gridiron preparation. Eastern will
do its preseason drilling in the Lin
coin Park School Stadium. Business and
Western probably will not begin work
until around September is.
Though it is admittedly early to get
a line on the comparative strength Of
the teams that will be put on the field
by the public high schools. it does seem
manifest, even now, that the fight for
the crown will lie among Eastern, Cen
trail and Tech. At this stage Eastern's
chances appear unusually bright, the
Lincoln Parkers having retained most
Of the regulars Of season ago. Tech
defending champion, has lost heavily
by graduation and II Coach Hap Har-
dell is to develop a winner it would
seem that he has an extremely difficult
tssk. Central, under Coach Louis j.
CTy) Rauber. will be making a desper-
ate effort to get back in the. gridiron
sun. and II Spring training aAd other
determined preparation counts for any
thing, the Blue and White should come
close to achieving its objective. It is
hard to figure either Business or West
ern as real contenderS in view Of lack
OF material and adequate training ia
cilities.
Tech Starts Tuesday.
Techs squad. expected to number
nearly so, will start its training at the
University OF Maryland Tuesday. The
grind will last about two weeks Except
for Benner, end, and Goss, fullback. the
Mckinley squad will lack seasoned ma
terlal. though in Lawrence Stutz, tackle,
and Spencer, quarterback, it has a cou-
pie OF boys who are by no means new
to the game. Tech has lost such stall
warts as Edelblut. end; Edwards and
Cole. guards; Oehmann and OYSTER.
tackles: Norwood, fullback; Mountain.
Florance and Drissel, backs, and Leo
Winston and Mayo, centers. Until a
short while ago it was thought that
Mayo would be available, but he has de-
cided to enter Lehigh the coming term
Hardell also must develop a punter
Techs first game is with Baltimore
City College, in the Maryland city, Sep
TENDER 81.
Eastern's candidates also will begin
preparation Tuesday Stalwarts of the
Light Blue and White who will be on
the job include: Capt. Tom Nally, his
brother John. Montague and Chester
Miles, linemen; Charlie Millar. McCar-
thy. Mccullough, Oxley and Wood,
backs: Wade, Holland and Eaton Chalk
ley, ends, and Max Miller. center, have
been lost. Eastern's opening contest
is with Calvert Hall School of Balti-
more In the Eastern Stadium Septem-
Der 81.
Central OFF Friday.
Reporting in Central Stadium We'd
nesday, Ty Rauber's hopefuls will leave
Friday for Annapolis The Columbia
Heights bunch after their training pc
riod at the City on the Severn will re-
turn here to get in final ticks for their
first game against st. Johns of this
city September 81. Capt. Brandt. end;
Eicholtz, tackle, and Zimmisch, center,
are the only Central letter winners who
will be available, but in Pinckney, big
former Gonzaga back; ChildresS, rangy
end, and Hinkle, back, the Blue and
White has some good material.
Both Business and Western have lost
valuable players and neither Coach Lynn
Woodwork or Dan Ahern, Western
mentor, will have whole lot to work
with.
Grid practice among the prep schools
will not begin generally until around
September Is.
