NEEDS WIN OR TIE
IN WESTERN GAME
Coggins' Eleven Alone Has
Clean SIate-G. U. Prep
Meets st. Johns.

w YHEN dusk settles over
M Central High School
v Y Stadium Tuesday night
the eleven of the Co.
lumbia Heights school is expected
to be boasting its first public high
school foot ball championship
since 1920. Central will take the
title with three wins, no losses and
one tie, II 1t overcomes Western
Tuesday.
Central followers ard most other OBJ
servers figure the Blue will rout the
Red Raiders from Georgetown, but
there are some who maintain that West
ern has improved to a point where it
is push-over for no schoolboy team
and Central may find Coach Dan
Ahern's charges Unexpectedly stubborn
foes. Westerns big line is expected to
hold Centrals running attack in check
and If the Georgetowners can present
o good forward pass defense the Cliff
ton street team may find its offense
pretty well throttled Central doesn't
title. II the game ends in tie the
Coggins- coached team will have the
flag, as the other elevens all will have
lost at least one game.
However should Western upset the
Oh dope bucket and down Central, Tech
will squeeze through at the wire for
It's sixth straight title, although Tech
has lost q game, having bowed to Cen
trail. Tech has won three contests and
lost one.
CEVERAL games of real class are
carded this week, aside from the
Central Western encounter.
Tomorrow Georgetown Prep and st.
Johns, long rivals, clash at Garrett
Park. Then, except for the Central
Western game, there will be nothing
doing until Friday, when red-hot foes
will square of in games bringing to-
gether Eastern and Gonzaga in the
Eastern Stadium, st. Adams and Lam
don at st. Adams, and Friends and
Episcopal High B squad at Friends
Alexandria High has an engagement,
being down to visit Hopewell, Va, for a
brush with the Hopewell High eleven.
Tech, Emerson and Episcopal all
travel Saturday, not single game for
scholastics being listed here.
Tech journeys to Roanoke, Va, to
battle the Jefferson High School eleven,
Emerson meets York Collegiate Institute
here on a field to be announced and
Episcopal goes to Winchester for tus-
sic with the Shenandoah Valley Mill
tary Acs5smy eleven.
~HK Cenaral-Georgetown Prep game
planned for November 81 prom
ises to prove one Of the most at
tractive booked for scholastics In this
section for some time. Central appears
the hngfish of the public high whirl
and GEORGETOWN Prep looms as the best
bet among the prep schools. Neither
has lost game. The tilt Is scheduled
for the Central Stadium.
Landon figures to make st. Adams
hustle for its laurelS Friday. Starting
with q squad made up largely of green
material, the Landon boys have come
along In nne shape. They outclassed
Boys Latin School Of Baltimore Friday
by more than the 1875 score would In
dicate, making 13 first downs to none
for the visitors. Saturdays victory was
the first for Landon in six starts, but
In three Of the tits 1t was beaten by
q lone touchdown.
For the past i've years Tech without
. stadium has been winning the public
high grid title. Now 1t has stadium
but apparently no championship. The
new athletic plant at Mckinley Is to be
dedicated November "a with a game
against Swavely but unless Western
trims Central, and that appears un-
likely, Tech viii enter the game an
also ran so far as the public high title
chase is concerned.
