BUDD|ES CLASH

Tomorrow afternoon "Gump"
Bailey, Marlboro center forward,
will be trying his darnedest to
kick ball by his old pal and
playmate, Fred Watson, Colum"

and Fred will be out to thwart
him when these two teams clash

These two for several years
were conspicuous in the British
United lineup. Now Bailey, the
second highest scorer in the
league, is out to make life miser-
able for Watson, who boasts the
finest goalie record in the city.
and tomorrow neither one will
give nor ask quarter.
However, off the field they are
still the same old buddieS.

sumo their bitter struggle for SUI

McGraw on Shelf

Although McGraw has some
sort of title or another around
the New York Giants. his posi-
ton with them is purely eX
officio and has been since last
spring when through some
strange twists within the or
ganization, he gave way to Bill
Terry, who will again manage
the team.
Now the only place in the
world, in our opinion, for John
McGraw around a baseball
club is with the team. He
would seem very much out of
place to all old-timers, unless
he were directing the play
pulling the wires, creating the
scenes afield and making the
breaks, as it were.
In the last eight or nine
months, practically shelved by
the powers who be Of the Giants,
McGraw has had much time to
think. He has undoubtedly
reached some very definite con-
cluSions about the game and
what has happened to it and
what is in store for it. These
impressions will no doubt be
dropped in the lap of the hun
dreds of guests who will be
present tomorrow night, and
how we'd like to be one of them.

SPIKE
FLOOR HOPES
Of EASTERN
BY SID KATZNELL
81 told You sol"

Those were the ringing words
of Coach Artie Boyd, Tech High
School basketball coach, told to the
group of sports scribes who gath
cred around him following the
conclusion of the Tech-Eastern
game yesterday afternoon.
AS practically everybody IN
Washington knows Tech nosed
out Eastern High tossers in an
extra period contest yesterday
afternoon on the spacious Tech
floor, 80 to %, to virtually elm.
mate the Lincoln Parkers athletes
chances of capturing the inter
high championship crown.
Prediction Comes True
Earlier in the season Coach Boyd
predicted that Tech would smash
some teams hope Of winning the
title.
Mentor Bert Coggins, of the
Central High aggregation, is also
wearing a broad smile today. Why
not? His boys trimmed the Roose-
velt Rough Riders in the second
game of the doubleheader at the
Tech gym, A to Is, to practically
clinch the Inter-High Basket
ball championship. All his team
has to do now is to defeat Western
Tuesday. And this shouldn't be
hard job as the Georgetown
outfit is way below CentraPS par.
Eastern started off as if to run
away with the contest but Tech
braced in the late stages and
played better ball than the north
east combination.
Thomas Bright Light
"Knocky" Thomas, Tech guard,
was the outstanding player on the
floor and will undoubtedly be an
unanimous choice for one of the
all-high guard positions. He made
six field goals, many being OF the
spectacular variety.
Waters, stellar forward of East
ern cive, scored the first basket OF
the game when he potted from
the side.
Dean, fine guard Of the Capitol
Killers, dropped a beauty from
short center and almost immedi-
ately afterward Davis, Eastern's
center, potted a fielder from the
side. After little rough playing,
Dean broke away again and
dropped one in from the extreme
right side. Wheeler, Tech captain,
was fouled and made the one
charity shot good. That's the
story of the first quarter.
Rally in Last Period
Tech trailed at the intermiS-
sion, 18 to II, and was behind at
the end Of the third period, %
to 13. But, put on much
steam in the fourth quarter to
knot the count 26-all, and won
out in the extra five minutes
when Gillem and DAILY sunk field
goals. Basin scored the extra
period fielder for the Eastern
lads.
Central toyed with Roosevelt.
Burke, Nau, Upton and Shore
accounted for the majority Of the
Mount Pleasant teams points.

Louis Mann, Actor

McGraw, like only two others
of his early schooling, Connie
Mack and Clark Griffith, should
be able to give baseball some
practical advice which, if fol-
lowed, might see it among the
first industries of all big buSi-
ness, to be revived to something
like its former state of health.
And. by the way, only this
week we learned the story of
the origin Of the baseball writ
ers' organization.
1t seems that at the famous
play-off game between the Cubs
and the Giants for the 1908 flag,
Hughey Fullerton, famous base
ball writer, arrived late and
found his seat at the Polo
Grounds occupied by Louis
Mann, old-time actor, baseball
fanatic and personal friend of
John r. Brush, the president of
the Giants.
Mann refused to surrender
the seat, as there wasn't an
other place in the park ne
could sit on that crowded day,
SO Fullerton sat on Mann's
lap and dictated his story to
q telegraph operator.
There ought to be q law"
declared the newspaper men
on that occasion, and within a
week at the world series in
Detroit they organized and
prevailed upon baseball to give
them entire control of all press
facilities. The organization
numbers about 200 now and is
limited to cities where major
league baseball is played,

Until stopped by Bob Turner
last winter, Irving had whipped
everything handed him. Last
summer he performed a sensa-
tional feat in knocking Leroy
Bordeau out in one round at
Twin City.
Although they have never met,
Henry would like to get a crack at
Young Van, if he defeats Brennan.
Joe comes here with a victory
over Bob Turner, the same fighter
who flattened Henry. He is con-
sidered the best looking middle
weight prospect around Norfolk.
