Early in the season, indications
pointed to an easy title victory for
the Central High School eleven.
A week or so ago, the Tech High
machine stepped into the picture
and stopped the Centralites in
6 to 0 game-playing heads-up
football all the while.
This victory put the Trainers
into the limelight. 1t also boosted
their chances of defeating East
ern, their next important foe, by
at least two touchdowns.
Yesterday, Eastern upset the
applicant by holding Coach Hap
Hardell's charges in a 90 game
at the Eastern Stadium before
5000 surprised fans.
Stunning Event
It was a stunning turn of events,
that contest. For now it is the
wonder of many whether Tech will
be able to trounce Roosevelt next
Friday in a game that will bring
down the curtain on the 1886
series.
The big reason for Eastern's
splendid showing yesterday can be
laid to Gene Davis, young half
back.
Gene did about everything for
his team, punting when that was
necessary, and passing and run
ming the leather when Eastern was
on the offensive.
1t seemed the entire Eastern
lineup depended on him for
guidance, yes, even his mates on
the line, who had performed mis-
erably up to yesterdays contest in
the series.
BeIOte PuntS Well
Jack Belote kept Tech in the
running. His punting, of high
standard all year, was even more
sensational.

Today's kickoff has been moved
up 80 minutes and hoStilitieS will
commence at o'clock.
The team from Salisbury, N. c.,
underdog three times this season
thus far and victorious each time,
insists it has an excellent chance
to register an upset. It's case of
a good little team opposed to a
good big team, and G. w. is a top
heavy favorite to win by a good
sized score.
To Use Spread Play
George Washington now-fa-
nous *spread" formation, which
bothered such a redoubtable team
as powerful Rice Institute, prob
ably will prove too much for the
light Catawba forwards and backs.
That G. w. will use it goes with
out the saying, for the formation
is one of G.. WIS Stock-in-trade.
With a heavy back like Reeves
plowing through the light and
spread-out Catawba defense, and
a speed merchant like Sampson
skirting the wings, it would seem
that the Colonials ought to run
wild, once they get down to the
task at hand. During the earlier
portions of the game, Catawba is
expected to offer exceptionally
stubborn resistance.
Say what you may, G. w. is tax
ing today'S game as prepping for
those tough MountaineerS OF West
Virginia a week from Thursday,
and the Colonial coaches undoubt-
edly will strive to use every man
on the Buff and Blue squad.
Fast Backs

carry Catawba's hopes. In this
backfield are Meehan, a clever
field general; Charlie Clarke, a
boy who has averaged 100 yards
from scrimmage in every game
played this season; Pritchard,

then they have more than an even

A special train roared over the

than average punter and a shifty,
Cagy runner.
Fleming Back at End
Although Manhattan has an
nounced that it intends to seek
victory through the air, the Jas
pers may find themselves too busy
defending against the aerials shot
at them by Moulin and Keating
to do very much on their own be-
half. If Manhattan falls into
the defensive error that marked
its game with Kentucky, the score
should mount in GeorgetoWn's
favor.
Most important from a George
town standpoint is the fact that
Jack Fleming will be able to start.
This youngster was out of the
game against New York Univer-
sity, and his long punting was
sorely missed. With him in the
game the set defense that New
York was able to employ against
the Hoyas will be out of the ques-

winning. He will go on the air
