GROUP MEDICAL CARE HAS BEEN
 DISAPPROVED
New Haven Medical AssO. citation Does Not Agree With Report of National Association

New Haven. Conn, Jan 30-(UP) --The majority report of the Ma tional Committee on Medical Care, advocating group medical care throughout the United states, has been dlsapproved by the New Ha- ven Medical association as imprac- ticable.
 "The work would be done badly, 1t would be done expensively, it would, in some places, be done cor ruptly and individual initiative, the prime factor in social adjustment would be crippled" a report of the local association said.
 Whatever changes take place should be the result of evolution rather than revolution, the report stated, adding Performers are al- ways fin hurry and too often their worthy but mistaken efforts to im- prove conditions which were ale ready progressing toward better- ment, have ultimately resulted in reactions which led to an actual retardation of the very improve ments which they desired to bring about"

EASTERN FOE
AS SERIES
STARTS
BY GARRETT WATERS

Years and years ago Central
High was blessed with the finest
collection Of football material the
school had ever known.
: Games were won, record scores
chalked UP and to top it all
championships upon champion
ships were grabbed to make the
team and school one Of the most
feared in local scholastic ranks.
Shortly after this reign a new
Zoe stepped into the picture to
take the glory away from the
poised CentraliteS. That foe was
q Tech. And Tech, under the splen-
did guidance of Elmer (Hap) Har-
dell, has held this new reign for
the past six years despite every
bit of resistance Central and the
other teams have offered up dur
ing the course of each gridiron
campaign.
Wait For Material
What to do? What to do? Cen
tral and the "others" have asked
many times. The only answer to
the problem has been to wait un-
til some more Of that material
that high school teams ofttimeS
bob up with, arrived.
Although Centra1ites are not
making any lash predictions this
year, they believe that at last a
commendable collection of foot
ball StalWarts has arrived on the
scene. It's taken many year to
bring this about, they say, but
they believe that this year the
miracle has happened-a few
Mike Gordons, Morty Willners,
Weston Byngs, and Frank Black
istones are in the collection Of
candidates under Coach Burt Cog
gins wing and they feel that the
team, as whole. will give the
champion Tech eleven and the
others q real run for honors just
like the old days.
Frank KocSis, wrestler-type
player, who totes around a pound
age of 180, is the big threat. Then
there are others including Nick
PiStolaS. 178-pound guard; John
Nicolopolous, 180-pound guard;
Bill Hayes, 170-pound tackle;
George King, 165-pound quarter
back; Mert GaSs, 172-pound half
back. Harry Fishbein, 165-pound
center, and last but not least,
Ralph Holmes, whose 202 pounds
make him one of the heaviest
tackles in series competition in
years.
All Het Up
These "men" may or may not |
bring Central old time glorieS by |
their performances in this years
games. But even so CentraliteS
are all het up about their chances
as they see great possibilities
ahead, not to mention the fact
that they vision possible perform
ers in line such as Gordon, Will
ner, Byng. Blackstone and others
of many years ago.
Tomorrow this improved Cen
trail machine tackles Eastern in |
the opening game of the 1888
inter-high school football series. |
The contest promises to be un-
usually interesting and even more
so to Centralites who'll follow the
series this season with all the
hope and expectancy they can
muster,

B|SONS EXPECT
LARGE CROWD

One Of the largest crowds ever
to attend an opening game in
Howard Stadium is expected to be
present when Coach Tom Verdell
introduces his 1888 Howard Uni
versity Bisons, Saturday, with st.
Paul furnishing the opposition.
Although Howard's 1892 combi-
nation was greatly disrupted by the
loss Of five veterans through grad
uation, the Bisons have been fairly
successful in developing new men
and the Howard combination of
1888 is expected to be fully as
strong, If not stronger than the
1882 aggregation.
Barry Williams, formerly Of
Armstrong High, has shown up
well in practice sessions to date
and bids fair to develop into an
outstanding star. Coach Verdell
will not name his starting lineup
until just before game time.

TACKLE
PURPLE TODAY

Just as if Emerson and st. John
hadn't held the scholastic spot
light at all yesterday, Roosevelt
and Gonzaga were set to engage in
their scheduled gridiron skirmish
today on the Benning field at $3.50
o'clock.
Both teams have yet to break
into the win column this season,
but despite this. boast of fairly
capable elevens. Therefore a lively
game should result with Roosevelt
particularly anxious to prove to its
high school rivals that it will be
a bother in the coming inter-hlgh
series which opens tomorrow at
the Central Stadium with Central
facing Eastern.
Roosevelt, incidentally, will at
tempt to do the iron-man act,
as far as football Is concerned,
by jumping over to Alexandria
tomorrow to meet the Alexandria
High eleven. The Teddy Bears
are unmindful Of the strain to
be put on them, however, as
they've pointed for this clash as
much, if not more so, as their
meeting with Gonzaga today.
A blocked kick decided the
Emerson-St. Johns fray yeSter
day on the Tidal Basin field.
It came in the third quarter
and the break enabled st. Johns
to score a hard-fought 7-to-0 VIC
tory.
Emerson was back behind its
20-yard line when Dickson and
Knealy, Cadet performers, blocked
Weaver's kick. ArendeS, st.
Johns tackle, fell on the ball
for the score.

KEEP
z ROOSEVELT
| = STARS OUT
By SID KATZNELL


Roosevelt Highs football team
may not = very far in the inter-
high series this season but 1t can
point with extreme pride to two
players.
They are Francis ("Huck")
Cavanaugh and Robert Grimm,
both Of whom are out of action
at present due to inquiries re-
ceived in the Swavely Prep game
last week.
Coach Lynn Woodwork is
afraid his stars won't be set un-
til the Central game which will
take place Tuesday, october "a.
However, Woodworth is not en-
tirely gloomy over the. situation
as he expects "Huck" and Robert
to be at their best after the
lay-off.
18 Years Old
Cavanaugh Is 18 years old ana
is quite an unassuming fellow. He
weighs approximately 145 pounds
and stands feet 9 inches from
| the ground. He has sandy hair
with light complexion.
Francis sport career started
with Business Chat was the
name of Roosevelt them three
years ago. Being a natural ath-
lete, Cavanaugh made good in
basketball and football almost
Immediately.
Grimm is a big fellow towering
about six feet and weighing 176
pounds. He's blond and has blue
eyes.
Unlike Cavanaugh, Grimm was
developed by Coach Lynn Wood.
worth. When Robert reported to
Woodwork for baseball, basket
ball and football, he was quite
green, but soon developed into
an excellent player after several
weeks Of practice in each sport.
Also q Pitcher
Grimm, holds down the center
position on the eleven; jumps
center on the basketball team,
and pitches and plays the out
field on the baseball team.
Robert is ember Of the
local National Guard and won it's
light-heavyweight boxing cham
pionship last year.
Here's what Coach Woodworth
has to say about Cavanaugh and
Grimm:
Francis and Robert are fine
boys. They are not onl! first
rate athletes but are smart
students. wish 1 could have
some more boys like them on
my team"
