For 25 years Potomac canoe
lists tried one sheet sails on their
canoes with the idea Of helping
them with the padding. None
were so rash as to think that "a
couple Of properly adjusted sails
would ever supply sufficient
power to propeI . canoe through
the water with any practical
speed.
Around 1926 q Canadian, How
ard Green, appeared and without
stopping to investigate the no
tons current among local pad
dlers, rigged a canoe with a
multiple sail and sailed across
the face Of Father Potomac with
speed and ease.
In no time at aII, many
local canOeists who had
watched his progress with no
little curiosity and envy, fol
lowed his lead.
Some Of the local canoeists
who had been looked upon as
quite the class in the canoe
sport, made 50 bold as to chal

YET.
It is to laugh. Yesterday, the
Techmen showed just who was
the superior team in the race,
when it took a 33-to-O game away
from Western at the Central High
School stadium before large and
enthusiastic crowd.
Tech never showed to better
advantage than in yesterdays
performance. Western never
showed worse.
The game developed into q
rOut shortly after the second
quarter, when the HardelE
coached warriors ran up
27-tO-0 lead by half-tin1e.
And the manner In which they
worked it brought out the teams
power. western couldn't stop the
stubborn and brilliant drive Of
the Manual Trainers, that's all.
The first quarter saw the Tech
men work a drive from midfield
for a touchdown. The first
quarter also saw the Techmen
work another drive which placed
them five yards within another
touchdown, which they scored
only moments after the start of
the second period. That's the
way it went throughout.
Tech was without Nelson, its
star quarterback. It was also
without Goldman, its star tackle.
Yet, with Edwards and Lank fill
ing these positions, it swept West
ern off that teams feet to take
q lead too sudden for the George
town lads to realize the fact and
get into the game.
Techs backs, with AL Reich
man leading the way, played
havoc with Western. Hat

down the field for gains Of
terrible proportions. Western
couldn't do anything about
it. They couldn't stop the
Gray horde in its savage at
tack.
The ball was played in Western
territory for the most part. Coach
Hardell started his second team
after his regulars had run up
their n to 0 margin by half time.
And after the second stringers
were held Scoreless during the
I third quarter, the regulars went
back in during the last quarter
to add one more touchdown to

ing. Everybody had it dOped
that the GeorgetOwners would
be the toughest of foes for the
Manual Trainers to defeat.
The score tells the tale.
Nothing but miracle-changed
Eastern team, Techs next oppo-
nent in the series, can defeat the
Manual Trainers. They'll prob
ably give a much stronger fight
than Western, but, on the almost
perfect showing of the Techmen
ye-tcrdsy, they'll be defeated.

MANY NAMES
MENTIONED
FOR JOB

Ever since the report was
heralded Of Ty Rauber's de-
parture at Central High School
after this years football cam
paign there's been all sorts Of talk
as to who win or will not succeed
the popular mentor.
The name Of Burt coggins has
been most generally discussed,
while the names Of Messrs. Dris-
coll and wilmer, assistants to
Rauber for most of the season,
have also been brought to attcn-
ton.
Not to be content with that, the
names Of Big Jim McNamara,
Dewitt Prep School mentor, and
Hap Hardell, Champion Coach"
at Tech High School, have been
sounded. But these have been
mentioned with little foundation
and no confirmation.
The takers" are right In this
respect, however. There viii be o
new football coach at Central next
year, that's certain. But, who, is
not known.
The not IL boiling, among
those more closely connected
with the Central athletic Ac-
tivities, and it's been brought
out that something Is going to
break at the end Of the foot
ball year.
Burt Coggins, present director
Of athletics at the school. is 20 get
the Job from the latest reports
Burt already is known for his ex
ploits in directing the destinieS Of
Central basketball teams in the
past. He has handled football
too, in instances where Raunel
was absent because Of sickness OF
illness in the family.
Mention of the coaching job in
the cases Of Mcnamara. and Har
dell can hardly be seen as having
any foundation whatever, how
Eever. Yet the names Of these two
mentors have been heard in the
talk on who win be Rauber's sue
cessor. :.
Hardell, for one, is too well
liked and too well situated al
Tech to break away from that
institution, and besides it would
be foolhardy on the part Of Tech
officials to let Hap get away in
view Of that mer tors excellent
showing as q coach In his regime
since 1923.
| As to MCNAMARA, the same
situation covers him as Har-
dell at Tech. In other words,
when one thinks Of Dewitt he
thinks of Mcnamara, because
Of the McNamara reign which
has been nothing less than
excellent in his five years ct
that school.
Unless some individual Il
flashed suddenly into the picture
when Central officials finally
make public their man, CogginS L
down for the job right now, is th'
belief. And that's not just hear
say. It's come from very authentic
sources. Also the report, which
many still feel are not true. thai
present Coach Rauber, Is to leave
Central after this years football
season. 50.

Ladies and gentlemen OF the radio audience, you

ing number will be You wouldn't Fool Me, Would
You?' The first movement, in which the string
instruments predominant, depicts the American dele
cation leaving the United States for the London con-
ference They are full Of high hopes. There Is q
raher rough and chaotic medley indicating a disagree
able ocean voyage and then a broad outburst Of
brasses marks the arrival Of the delegation on Eng
li.h soil.
THE cymbals clash loudly to denote that Charles
Francis Adams has smiled. Here there occurs a clever
arrangement for bassoons and flutes denoting a mes
sage to Colonel Stimson that his parrot. The Old
Soak. is all right and has no symptoms Of psitticossis.
The violins then sweep into action. which conveys
the idea that Dwight Morrow. who Is somewhat
absent minded, has addressed King George entire
ly in Mexican.
Now there Is a movement for comets and from
bones indicating the preliminary conference with
the English delegates, and a low moaning OF saxa-
phones gives you the impression that many cross
currents at work. A violent pounding OF kettle
drums marks the arrival OF italian delegation with
strict orders from Mussolini to consent to nothing.
IAN aria for cellists indicates that Senator Reed
has fallen asleep, and from afar you hear a runnbling
OF muted woods denoting that the Jauanese dele
gates are extremely pessimistic and that Premier
Tardieu and Ariside BRAND have left the conference
and gone across the street for some fried snails and
cognac.
"The composition closes with q rather confusing
movement for brasses and fiddles conveying the idea
that the session has been hurriedly broken IN by
news that the talking picture photographers have ar
rived and can't be kept waiting.
