Prospects of eventually defeating
John Anger, incumbent city trea-
surer seem greater now than before
the election as he won over his op-
ponent, Walter A. Bednarski, by a
vote of 1929 to 5217 which was not
a large majority as he polled in the
past.
Frank Matulewicz, city clerk, who
has employed Ordaine Toliver in
his office for the past four years,
was reelected by a vote of 2 to /,
over his opponent Raymond F. Maty-
MAX. Toliver will be reappointed
assistant city clerk.
Other winners were George A.
Danish, whose fine record as presi-
dent of the council for the last two
years, caused his reelection for
that post. Walter Kanar, a defend
er of colored jobs, Joseph T. Kub-
crack of the Police Dept, and
Fred B. Dibble all were elected to
the council.

BY GARRETT WATERS

Still going on the supposition
that anything can happen in
scholastic sports events, parttcu-
larly In baseball, this department
now goes out on the limb to
predict q tough time for the
Eastern High nine, interhigh
title favorite during the remainder
Of the current schedule.
The series is still in its early
stage, tits true, but the Lincoln
Parkers have yet to demonstrate
their power as the obstacle to
down for another championship.
The teams outside games have
a. much to do with this new OBJ
servation as anything else ex-
hibited by Guyon's crew this
year.
The lineup has potential
strength-there'S no getting away
from that fact-but it has lacked
the polish of former Eastern teams
which had the necessary smooth
ness from the very outset.
FavOrites Long
Maybe the whole trouble-and
we remind you all Of this is still
from recent obServations-iS the
fact the boys have been favorites
to capture the title ever since base
ball practice sessions were first
started early in April.
Maybe this fact has Handicapped
instead of helped them. It's been
known to work this way with
school teams in the past, particu-
larly when those teams found
they were not quite powerful
enough to keep up the pace" in
the right manner.
Now in their debut against
Roosevelt last week. Coach Guyon's
crew did not look as impressive
as was expected. The infield made
hobbies at important moments and
the pitching was poor in spots,
especially when Roosevelt staged
dangerous rallies in the late in
ningS.
The Bethesda Chevy Chase
outside" game of last Thursday
strengthens the thought that any
thing can happen in school base
ball and the Eastern team, pract1-
Cally infallible before.
The Parkers lost this one, 8 to
6 and had no alibis to offer other
than the fact not one Of the "big
trio" Of pitchers were used. Bar
too, Clinton, O'Brien, Pepper, Kid
well, Taylor and the rest per
formed, however. and found the
supposed weak Bethesdans quite
tough.
Play Four Games
This week the ParkerS play in |
four games. Tomorrow the Tech |
High nine is met in an important
interhigh fray at Eastern. Mary |
land FroSh are scheduled WedneS-
day at college Park, Washington
Lee High at Eastern, Thursday
and the Navy PlebeS Saturday at |
Annapolis.
Tomorrow'S contest will be fol- |
lowed with most interest. The
Techmen promise to be no push |
over, taking their showing against |
Central a week or so ago as an
indication. This fact makes the
game interesting, and brings to
mind that an upset could occur.
Whether it does remains to be
seen. From now on, the ParkerS
may wade right through the re-
mainder of the schedule in true |
championship form. If they do it
will be O distinct boost to Coach
Guyon, who in recent years, has
developed splendid ball teams over |
Northeast way.
But If the reverse rules-and
the other teams have pointed for |
this all spring-the thought that
anything can happen in school
sports, particularly in baseball,
can definitely be put on q pedestal
and cheered to the echo.
Now watch those pesky ParkerS
cross up all this dope"

eventually her fine voice found
an appreciative director and she
