AsTERN HIGHS veteran
X foot ball team will strive to
L. pull to even terms with
Tech, 45-0 victor over
Roosevelt yesterday, when the
Capitol Hill scholastics encounter
Western tomorrow afternoon in
Central Stadium at $3.50 o'clock.
It will be the first series game for
Western, the last team to make
its debut in championship COM
petition.
Western, with only a sprinkling OF
seasoned material is given little chance
to defeat Eastern. The Georgetowners
in their three games tied Alexandria
High, SIS; defeated Baltimore City Col
leEe, 14-O, and bowed to Newport News
High by $40 Little Jimmy Corcoran,
Just about as fine an all-around school
boy athlete as you'll find anywhere, Is
Westerns ace. II anything happened
to this clever quarterback, Western in
deed would be out of luck. Halsey and
Summerbell are showing promise in the
backfield. but lack experience. On the
= line Gamage and Wynne, seasoned per-
formers, are bearing the brunt.
Last season Eastern squeezed out q
7-e win over Western, Joe Keegin,
hard running fullback, scored the tally
It was his debut in the public high
school series. He will be the main hope
OF the Guyon- coached team again to-
morrow.
While Eastern's showing Monday
against Central when the teams fought
to 90 tie in the series opener was
somewhat disappointing to followers OF
the Capitol Hill school, Guyon's pro-
teges shaped as a team that is apt to
break loose at any time against the
strongest sort Of schoolboy opposition.
"ECH today is out in front in the
race for its sixth straight public
high title by virtue of one Of the
easiest wins Hap Hardell's charges have
ever landed in series play. It is hard to
determine whether it was Techs
strength or Roosevelts weakness that
accounted for such top-heavy score as
$50. Tech, Of course, looked mighty
impressive in winning so handily, as
winning teams always do. But how the
Gray stacks up against Central. to be
met November 3, is the question.
It Is our prediction, whether worth
anything or not, that Tech will take
both Central and Eastern unless both

sluggishness that marked their play
Monday.
Using reserves freely the Gray yes
terday outclassed the hapless Ruff
Riders from the outset. Game to the
core, Coach Lynn Woodworth's light
and inexperienced charges battled every
inch Of the way, but early in the game
. it became plain that the only ques-
tion was the size of the score Tech
would amass Roosevelt's lone menac-
ing gesture came near the end of the
game when Huck Cavanaugh hurled
two long passes that were completed,
enabling the Riders to gain the Tech
35-yard line. Here a third pass was
grabbed by q Mckinley player, and the
Gray soon was pounding down the field
again toward the Riders goal.
Tech scored only one touchdown in
the first period but added two more
in the second, three more in the third
in the fourth. Whether first -stringers
or reserves were on the job the Gray
had little difficulty in smashing through
the Roosevelt line, opening holes large
enough to drive truck through

each. Pisani and Alley scored the other
two touchdowns
